Scattered Leaves
guitar tabs lyrics
capo 1
Verse 1:
Em
Don't you go lookin' so surprised, baby don't you look so stunned
D A Bm
Didn't I tell you that a cold November'd come
D A
And deliver the leaves from green to red
Bm A
To blowin' in the wind stone dead
Verse 2:
Em
Well I never used to notice this awful quiet, mmmmh
D A Bm
And fall was just the calm before the next spring riot, mmmhh
D A
Of wildflowers and lunatic rivers -
Bm A
Sweat jumping off of the skin of love givers, mmh (in the park)
Chorus:
D A Bm
Scattered leaves don't lie
D A Bm
Aw' now baby, baby, quit your cryin'
D A
Like everything that ever mattered, scit-scat scattered
Bm
Like every love word you heard
D A
But that's just the way when you walk your days
Bm
In the beauty of this world
(repeat)
Verse 3:
Em
pretty little disappointments all in a row
D A Bm
Been about a year since you disappeared through my door
D A
And now you come back with your head on straight,
Bm A
But I got no love or hate left for you, girl
Verse 4:
Em
You must be the daughter of the late, late rose - I'm November's
Em
son
D A Bm
And I'm here to tell you, honey, ooh what's done is done
D A
Yeah, I been claimed by the wind and the rain
Bm
A
There ain't no going back, naw there ain't no going back again (for us now)
Chorus:
D A Bm
Scattered leaves don't lie
D A Bm
Aw' now baby, baby, quit your cryin'
D A
Like everything that ever mattered, scit-scat scattered
Bm
Like every love word you heard
D A
But that's just the way when you walk your days
Bm
In the beauty of this world
(repeat)
