(Intro) C G Em
C
Leaves are fallin', it's September
The night came in and made her shiver
G
I told her she could have my jacket
Em
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders
C G
And I.. was so young 'til she kissed me
Em C
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
C
I never knew that love was blind
G Em
'Til I was hers, but she was never mine
C
Yeah, I was reckless
G Em
But I let it burn, I let it burn, yeah
C
The feeling, it was bittersweet
G Em
Realizing I was in too deep
C
She was a lesson
G Em
I had to learn, I had to learn, yeah
C
I used to try.. to forget her
G Em
But now I smile.. when I remember, oh..
(Chorus)
C
Leaves are fallin', it's September
The night came in and made her shiver
G
I told her she could have my jacket
Em
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders
C G
And I.. was so young 'til she kissed me
Em C
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
G Em
woo ooo.. like a whiskey.. woo ooo..
C
Would've left this world behind
Just to wake up by your side
G
Every mornin' I Would've sold my soul
Em
for a little more time, mm..
C
Would've waited a thousand nights
If she never said goodbye
G
I admit that I Would've sold my soul
Em
for a little more time
C
I used to try.. to forget her
G Em
But now I smile.. when I remember, oh..
(Chorus)
C
Leaves are fallin', it's September
The night came in and made her shiver
G
I told her she could have my jacket
Em
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders
C G
And I.. was so young 'til she kissed me
Em C
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
C
I ain't like the other Cognacs
Or type of cat that'd never call back
G
Or lose contact when you runnin' out of rum
Em
and you make a run
C
(Feelin' light and dizzy, might be tipsy)
All of that tequila's a killer, little vodka
Break her off somethin' proper
G
Pop a cork and play spin the bottle
Em C
(Every time you kiss me, like some whiskey)
Punch drunk love, it's a fine line
Dom Pérignon, she the fine wine
G Em
Someone call 911, I'm runnin' out of time
She done got off my heart
(Chorus)
C
Leaves are fallin', it's September
The night came in and made her shiver
G
I told her she could have my jacket
Em
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders
C G
And I.. was so young 'til she kissed me
Em
Like a whiskey..
C G
And I.. was so young 'til she kissed me
Em C
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
