Irish Songs With Easy Chords & Lyrics
First Leaves Of Autumn
C | F | G |
As the daylight turns to starlight and the | season turns to | change, |
| C | F | G |
I | get the same ould answers but the | question still re - | - mains. |
| F |
We shared a brief but magic | song, |
| G | Fm | C |
By the | first leaves of au- | -tumn, you were | gone, |
Chorus
C | F | G | C |
Not until the | rain has | touched my | face, |
| F | G | C |
Not until the | first leaves | fell from | space, |
| F | G | Am |
Not until that | moment | did I | see, |
| C | G7 | F | G7 | C |
I | never | realised what you | meant | to | me, |
From the days you filled with sunlight,
To the laughter in you eyes ,
To the making and the breaking of the day you said goodbye,
We shared a brief but magic song,
By the first leaves of autumn, you were gone
Not until the hearts defence is down
Not until ould come-all-ye comes round ,
Not until that moment did I see,
Never realised what you meant to me
Not until the rain has touched my face,
Not until the first leaves fell from space,
Not until that moment did I see,
Never realised what you meant to me,
