Maggie Reilly - One Autumn Day

CAPO: 3rd Fret

One autumn day

He looked my way

G Em7

And promised me he'd never

Leave me sad and blue

He said he always knew

G Em7

We would be together

So hand in hand

We wed as planned

G Em7

Our time was short, however

As the world was turned around

The innocence we'd found

G Em7

Was lost in stormy weather

Em Am7 Dm7 Em Am7 F G

INSTRUMENTAL:

That autumn day

When he marched away

G Em7

I heard him say, forever

He writes me every day

Says everything's okay

G Em7

Soon things will be much better

But late at night

As the candles' light

G Em7

Flickers in the darkness

I see him over there

The moonlight in his hair

G Em7

As stars explode around him

OUTRO: (## repeat 6x - fade to end ##)

Am F G Em7
