https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forever_Autumn_(song) [Verse 1]
Dm                              C
The summer sun is fading as the year grows old,

Bb         Gm               C
and darker days are drawing near

Bb         Gm                 C     
The winter winds will be much colder,

               Dm
now you're not here

Dm                                     C
I watch the birds fly south across the autumn sky,

Bb         Gm            C
And one by one they disappear.

Bb          Gm           C
I wish that I was flying with them,

               Dm
Now you're not here.
[Chorus]
Bb     F                Eb                  Dm
Like a song through the trees you came to love me;

Bb     F         Eb               Dm  C Bb Gm Eb Dm 
Like a leaf on a breeze you blew away
[Verse 2]
Dm                                      C
Through autumn's golden gown we used to kick our way,

Bb         Gm                 C
you always loved this time of year.

Bb           Gm              C
Those fallen leaves lie undisturbed now,

                  Dm                      C
'Cause you're not here. 'Cause you're not here.

                  Dm
'Cause you're not here.
[Chorus]
Bb     F                Eb                Dm
Like a song through the trees you came to love me;

Bb     F         Eb               Dm  C Bb Gm Eb Dm 
Like a leaf on a breeze you blew away
[Verse 3]
Dm                               C
A gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes,

Bb       Gm            C
as if to hide a lonely tear

Bb           Gm         C
My life will be forever autumn,

                  Dm                      C
'Cause you're not here. 'Cause you're not here.

                  Dm
'Cause you're not here.  2x
