C Dm Am7 F
C Dm F G
[VERSE 1]
C Dm
I saw the autumn leaves
Am7 F
Peel up off the street
C Dm
Take wing on the balmy breeze
F G
And sweep you off your feet
C Dm
And you blushed as they scooped you up
Am7 F
On sugar maple wings
C Dm
To gaze down on the city below
F G
Ablaze with wondrous things
[CHORUS]
Am G F
Downy feathers kiss your face
G
And flutter everywhere
Am G F
Reality is a lovely place
G
But I wouldn't wanna live there
C Dm Am7 F
I wouldn't wanna live there
C Dm F G
[VERSE 2]
C Dm
Weighed down by heavy lids
Am7 F
And lunar lullabies
C Dm
I knew you were wide awake
F G
'Cause you smile with your eyes
[CHORUS]
Am G F
Downy feathers kiss your face
G
And flutter everywhere
Am G F
Reality is a lovely place
G
But I wouldn't wanna live there
[BRIDGE]
C Dm
From the green belt balcony
Am7 F
The wildfires look so pretty
C Dm
Ponderosa canopy
F G
I'd never leave if it were up to me
C Dm
To the ruby redwood tree
Am7 F
And to the velvet climbing ivy
C Dm
Painted all mahogany
F G C
I'd never leave if it were up to me
(If it were up to me)
F G
With a starry brush
F
Paint the dusk venetian blue
G
'Cause in the evening hush
C F
You'll never believe the view
G
And when the leaves return
F
And their whisperings fill the night
G
They'll freeze and burn
C
Where fire and ice collide
C Dm Am7 F
Where fire and ice collide
C Dm F G
[CHORUS 2 & 1]
Am G F
Can you feel a silk embrace
G
In the satin air?
Am G F
If we dissolve without a trace
G
Will the real world even care?
Am G F
Downy feathers kiss your face
G
And flutter everywhere
Am G F
Reality is a lovely place
G
But I wouldn't wanna live there

I wouldn't wanna live there

Verse 1:
G Bm
Met a girl in the parking lot

And all I did was say hello

Her pepper spray made it rather hard
Em G A
For me to walk her home

But I guess that’s the way it goes
Chorus:

Tell me again was it love at first sight

When I walked by and you caught my eye

Well smile because you’re the deer in the headlights
F#m G Bm A D

Verse 2:
G Bm
Met a girl with a graceful charm
D A F#m G
But when beauty met the beast, he froze
Bm
Got the sense I was not her type
Em G A
By black eye and bloody nose
Em Bm A
But I guess that’s the way it goes
Chorus
Bridge:

It’s suffocating to say

But the female mystique takes my breath away

Tell me again was it love at first sight
