G                      A                  Bm
When the leaves start fallin', I'll come callin'
        D
I'll be right outside your door
G             A             Bm
Never do get borin', Monday mornin's
           D
With our clothes all on the floor
G                     A
Ain't seen you since last October
Bm                 D
And now we're both one year older
G                      A                  Bm
When the leaves start fallin', I'll come callin'

Chorus:
                G                   A
Let's take our time with this, I'm fine with this
Bm                   D
Why we gotta get so serious?
 G                 A
Hit or miss, I'll take the risk
       Bm                      D  
'Cause I can take another few years of this
   G                 A
So I won't break a promise
           Bm             D
No matter how bad that I want it
          G                   A
Take our time with this, I'm fine with this
Bm
Why we gotta get so serious?

G A Bm               D
Why we gotta get so serious? (Hey)
G A Bm               D
Why we gotta get so serious? (Hey)

Man, it's so frustratin', don't mind waitin'
You're a girl worth waitin' for
If I stumble on a mountain, I'll go 'round it
Till I'm right outside your door
Dip our toes into the water, one more kiss will pull me under
Man, it's so frustratin', don't mind waitin'

Chorus

Why we gotta get so serious?
Why we gotta get so serious?

So I won't break a promise
No matter how bad that I want it (No)
Take our time with this, I'm fine with this
Why we gotta get so serious? (Oh)

G                                        F#m
When the leaves start fallin', I'll come callin'
                            G
I'll be right outside your door
                             A
Never do get borin', Monday mornin'
                              G
With our clothes all on the floor
Ain't seen you since last October
F#m
And now we're both one year older
G                                         A
When the leaves start fallin', I'll come callin'

Chorus

Why we gotta get so serious? (Why we gotta get so)
(So serious) Why we gotta get so serious?
So I won't break a promise
No matter how bad that I want it
Take our time with this, I'm fine with this
Why we gotta get so serious? (Gotta be so)
Take our time with this, I'm fine with this
Why we gotta get so serious? (Why we got to get so)
Hit or miss, I'll take the risk
'Cause I can take another few years of this
So I won't break a promise
No matter how bad that I want it
Take our time with this, I'm fine with this
Why we gotta get so serious?
