Edgar Winter Group - Autumn Chords

Performed by The Edgar Winter Group

Notes- 
This is how I play this amazing song.  I don’t know if it’s how they play it, and 
they certainly retain all rights etc.  I’m just an old guy trying to figure it 
out.  It’s one of my favorite songs of all time!

So, I guess I’ll stay here in New England for Autumn, Autumn


Verse 2 (same chords as verse 1):

The buildings look tall and gray
The birds flying haven’t much to say
They all know that it’s coming again

Did you ever lose someone who was close to you

Well, I lost my lover, and my summer too

Autumn my loves gone with another

I can’t demand anything of myself now
