As the daylight turns to starlight
        F               G
And the seasons turn to change
  C
I get the same old answers
        F                 G
But the question still remains
                            F
We shared a brief but magic song
       G               F
By the first leaves of autumn
         C
You were gone

[Chorus]
C             F        G          C
Not until the rain had 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        F              Dm    G  C
I never realised what you meant to me

[Verse]
C                             F
From the days you filled with sunlight
                       G
To the laughter in you eyes
       C              F
To the making and the breaking
                       G
Of the day you said goodbye
                            F
We shared a brief but magic song
       G               F
By the first leaves of autumn
         C
You were gone

[Chorus]
C             F        G        C
Not until the hearts defence is down
               F        G            C
Not until some old come all ye comes round
               F      G     Am
Not until that moment did I see
C        F              Dm    G  C
Never realised what you meant to me

[Chorus]
C             F        G          C
Not until the rain had 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        F              Dm    G  Am  G  F
I never realised what you meant to me
  C        F              Dm    G  C
I never realised what you meant to me
