Autumn Days


C G F G Autumn days, when the grass is jewelled C G F G And the silk inside a chestnut shell C G F G Jet planes meeting in the air to be refuelled Am G All these things I love so well Chorus C Em So I mustn’t forget F D7 No, I mustn’t for - get C G F To say a great big thank you G C I mustn’t forget. Clouds that look like familiar faces And a winter’s moon with frosted rings Smell of bacon as I fasten up my laces And the song the milkman sings. Whipped-up spray that is rainbow-scattered And a swallow curving in the sky Shoes so comfy though they’re worn out and they’re battered And the taste of apple pie. Scent of gardens when the rain’s been falling And a minnow darting down a stream Picked-up engine that’s been stuttering and stalling And a win for my home team.
