G - Bb - Am - G - Bb - Am


G
Think the trees are shedding leaves
   Bb		      Am
It looks that way and I might say
     G              F   E7
The same applies to me

            Am
'Cause it's autumn in my heart
    Bb                Am
And you're the reason dear
G               F
I should try to get you back
            E                         E7
Instead of sitting being silly here

Am                                 D7
'Cause you're the last good man in my life
     Am				   D7
You left me half the woman that I was
               G
But I'm gonna find the time
        B7                    Em
And you bet I'm gonna climb
              C            Em   Eb  Bb   Am      G
Back into the arms of the last good man that I loved  (x2)

G
Could have been me acting smart
Bb               Am
But you know how I can't end 
G                F     E7
What I usually start

           Am
You'll realize something's gone
     Bb               An
Sure hope you miss me then
      G               F
But I wouldn't make a fool of you
          E                            E7
I'd just pray that you might stay with me again
