[Intro]
| C - - - | Ddim/F - - - | C - - - | F6 - G7/F F |

[Verse 1]
C                     Ddim/F
 Well baby, there you stand,
C/G                                   F/G  G7
   With your little head down in your hand.
F
Oh, my god,
C/E                Dm              C/E
can't believe it's happening again.
     F                      C/E
Your baby's gone and you're all alone,
       Dm                 F/G G7
And it looks like the end.

[Verse 2]
C
 And you're back out on the street.
Ddim/F C/G                       F/G
          And you're trying to remember.
   G7
Oh.
F                    C/E
How do you start it over?
    Dm                    C/E
You don't know if you can.
    F                     C/E
You don't care much for a stranger's touch,
        Dm                  C/G G
But you can't hold your man.

[Bridge]
Am                        E
  You never thought you'd be alone,
G                      D
This far down the line.
F                          Em
I know what's been on your mind.
        Dm                  G      C
You're afraid it's all been wasted time.

[Chorus]
Bm           E                   Am
  The autumn leaves have got you thinking,
Bm          E                   Am
  About the first time that you fell.
Bm           E           Am         G
  You didn't love the boy  too much, no,
no.
        F     C/E            Fdim7/G
You just loved   the boy too well,  well,
well.

[Verse 3]
C                   Ddim/F
 So you live day to day,  
C/G                   F/G         G7
   And you dream about   tomorrow.
        F                C/E
And the hours go by like minutes.
        Dm              C/E
And the shadows come to stay.
      F                        C/E
So you take a little something,
   Dm                F/G Fdim7/G
To make them go away.

[Bridge]
Am                     E
  I could have done so many things,
baby,
G                       D
 If I could only stop my mind,
     F                       Em
From wondering what I left behind,
Dm                G            C   G#
And from worrying 'bout this wasted  time.

[Chorus]
                 C       G#
Another love has come and  gone.
                   C
And the years keep rushing on.
F               C/E           Dm                C/E
I remember what you told me before you went out on your
own:
     F                  C/E
"Sometimes to keep it together,
   Dm              F/G G#dim7
we got to leave it a________lone."

[Bridge]
Am                     E
So you can get on with your search,
baby,
G                     D
And I can get on with mine.
F                        Em
And maybe someday we willfind,
     Dm           G         C
That it wasn't really wasted time.

[Outro]
