D                  C
  When I heard the knock on the door

Am                          G
  I couldn't catch my breath

D              C                 Am G
  Is it too late to call this off?
[Chorus]
D                   C
  We could slip away

Am          G
    Wouldn't that be better?

D                       C
  Me with nothing to say

Am                G
  And you in your autumn sweater
D C Am G x2 [Verse 2]
D            C
  I tried my best to hide

       Am                G
In the crowded room it's nearly possible

D             C                     Am G
  I wait for you, oh, most patiently
[Chorus]
D                   C
  We could slip away

Am          G
    Wouldn't that be better?

D                       C
  Me with nothing to say

Am                G
  And you in your autumn sweater
D C Am G x6 [Verse 3]
D      C
  So I looked for your eyes

        Am                       G
and the waves looked like they'd pour right out of them

D              C
  I'll try hard, I'll try always

Am    G
  But it's a waste of time

D         C
   It's a waste of time

     Am                G
if I can't smile easily

                 D    C
Like in the beginning

           Am    G
In the beginning
[Chorus]
D                   C
  We could slip away

Am          G
    Wouldn't that be better?

D                       C
  Me with nothing to say

Am                G
  And you in your autumn sweater
[Outro]
D                   C
  We could slip away

Am          G
    Wouldn't that be better?

D                       C
  Me with nothing to say

Am                G
  And you in your autumn sweater
D C
Am                G
  And you in your autumn sweater
D C
Am                G
  And you in your autumn sweater
D C
Am                G
  And you in your autumn sweater
D C Am G x2
