[Intro]
Eb Bb Gm
[Chorus]
Eb
Leaves are fallin', it's September
The night came in and made her shiver
Bb
I told her she could have my jacket
Gm
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders
Eb Bb
And I was so young 'til she kissed me
Gm Eb
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
[Verse 1]
I never knew that love was blind
Bb Gm
'Til I was hers, but she was never mine
Eb
Yeah, I was reckless
Bb Gm
But I let it burn, I let it burn, yeah
Eb
The feeling, it was bittersweet
Bb Gm
Realizing I was in too deep
Eb
She was a lesson
Bb Gm
I had to learn, I had to learn, yeah
[Prechorus]
Eb
I used to try to forget her
Bb Gm
But now I smile when I remember
[Chorus]
Eb
Leaves are fallin', it's September
The night came in and made her shiver
Bb
I told her she could have my jacket
Gm
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders
Eb Bb
And I was so young 'til she kissed me
Gm Eb
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
Bb
Ohohohoho, like a whiskey
Gm
Ohohohoho
[Verse 2]
Eb
Would've left this world behind
Just to wake up by your side
Every mornin' I
Bb Gm
Would've sold my soul for a little more time, mmmm
Eb
Would've waited a thousand nights
If she never said goodbye
Bb
I admit that I
Gm
Would've sold my soul for a little more time
[Prechorus]
Eb
I used to try to forget her
Bb Gm
But now I smile when I remember
[Chorus]
Eb
Leaves are fallin', it's September
The night came in and made her shiver
Bb
I told her she could have my jacket
Gm
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders
Eb Bb
And I was so young 'til she kissed me
Gm Eb
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
[Verse 3]
I ain't like the other Cognacs
Or type of cat that'd never call back
Bb Gm
Or lose contact when you runnin' out of rum and you make a run
Eb
(Feelin' light and dizzy, might be tipsy)
All of that tequila's a killer, little vodka
Break her off somethin' proper
Bb
Pop a cork and play spin the bottle
Gm Eb
(Every time you kiss me, like some whiskey)
Punch drunk love, it's a fine line
Dom Pérignon, she the fine wine
Bb Gm
Someone call 911, I'm runnin' out of time
She done got off my heart
[Chorus]
Eb
Leaves are fallin', it's September
The night came in and made her shiver
Bb
I told her she could have my jacket
Gm
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders
Eb Bb
And I was so young 'til she kissed me
Gm Eb
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
Bb
And I was so young 'til she kissed me
Gm Eb
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
