Note: this is based on the acoustic version that was on the bonus disc
that was in some versions of Album of the Year. As such, it has none of
the lead sections in the album version. However, if you listen closely,
you can hear the main guitar playing this part in the background.
Intro/Main riff:
I stumbled in at 3 a.m.but you didn't want to
I tried again at half past ten; you still didn't want to
[A]Your hips have this way [F#m]of saying no way
An impenetrable barricade
Something I said? Something I did? What's made you so defensive?
Something you heard? Something you learned?
The seasons changing, its for the worse...
You used to call me on your break, but you've been so busy
You used to bring me tomato soup... but you keep forgetting
[A]As the groundskeeper rakes up [F#m]the October leaves
It occurs to me, trees can't hide anything
Something I said? Something I did? You've been acting so distant
Something you heard? Something you learned?
The trees are barren, the leaves have turned
The days when we made it the world was green
Now autumn has fallen, everything's changed
October leaves...
I woke up this morning, you were off to work
No kisses, no coffee, no morning paper...
