[Verse]
F
I wish you could
see what
C
my eyes see
G
As the leaves
fall down
Am
out the sky
F
As the cardinal
darts and the
C
robin chirps dark
G
And the gooses honk
Am
"hark ye, goodbye'
F
The apples are
done and the
C
trees where they
hung
G
And gourds of all
Am
greatness and moods
F
Are nestled in hay
C
yellow fields
'Neath persimmon
trees
G
This year the signs
Am
all read spoons

[Chorus] F I wish you could see C what my eyes see G As the summer slips Am out of view F Time's gonna take me, baby C Just as I am G It's autumn here how C C C C G 'bout you [Verse] F There'll be talk of turkeys and C taters and puddings G And pilgrims and corn Am on the cob F As the squirrel's squirrwl away C What they can for each day G For the old man is Am getting along F Never have I ever C wanted to measure G The time like I Am want to do now F As the goldenrod fades C And short are the days G I wish I could pause Am it somehow [Chorus] F I wish you could see C what my eyes see G As the summer slips Am out of view Time's gonna F take me, baby C Just as I am G It's autumn here how C C C C 'bout you [Verse] F The bugs of the summer C grow quiet with wonder G As Pegasus rises Am east F And the sweet morning dew C Will turn to frost soon G Inrto dens, all ye Am critters and beasts F The chipmunks 'a chitter C And the mountain stream glimmers G In the light of a harvest moon AM night F But I haven't forgotten C It wouldn't be autumn G If we weren't between Am seasons of life [Chorus] F I wish you could see C what my eyes see G As the summer slips Am out of view G F Time's gonna take me, baby C Just as I am G And it's autumn here Am how 'bout you
