E                F#m            B         E
I was twenty-one years when I wrote this song
    E                      A     B      E
I'm twenty-two now, but I won't be for long
A            B
Time hurries on

Chorus:
         E       D       A  B           E
And the leaves that are green turn to brown
         C#m
And they wither with the wind
          F#m             B
And they crumble in your hand.

Once my heart was filled with love of a girl
I held her close but she faded in the night
Like a poem I meant to write

Chorus

I threw a pebble in a brook
And watched the ripples run away
And they never made a sound

Chorus

E        F#m      B      E
Hello, hello, hello, hello
E                      A        E
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

A                B
That's all there is
         E       D        A  B          E
And the leaves that are green turn to brown.
