Lend me your ear while I call you a fool.

                          -
       A(sus2)                      G         C(maj7) Em7/B A(sus2)
Leaves falling red, yellow, brown, all are the same
A(sus2)                             G         C(maj7) Em7/B A(sus2)
, and the love you have found lay outside in the rain.
A(sus2)                             G     C(maj7) Em7/B A(sus2)
Washed clean by the water but nursing its pain.

 C D A                C D A        E
       The witch's promise was coming,
             A            A7             G          D
 and you're looking elsewhere for your own selfish gain.
