When fall comes to New England
C G D
The sun slants in so fine
C G D Em
And the air's so clear you can almost hear
C ~ Am D
The grapes grow on the vine
G D G
The nights are sharp with starlight
C G D C
And the days are cool and clean
G D G C
And in the blue sky overhead
G D G C
The northern geese fly south instead
G D/F# Em
And leaves are Irish Setter red
C G D G D G
When fall comes to New England
D G
When fall comes to New England
C G D C
And the wind blows off the sea
G D Em
Swallows fly in a perfect sky
C ~ Am D
And the world was meant to be
G D G
When the acorns line the walkways
C G D C
Then winter can't be far
G D G C
From yellow leaves a blue jay calls
G D G C
Grandmothers walk out in their shawls
G D/F# Em
And chipmunks run the old stone walls
C G D G D G
When fall comes to New England
BRIDGE:
C ~ Am
The frost is on the pumpkin
Em D G
The squash is off the vine
C ~ Am D
And winter warnings race across the sky
C ~ Am
The squirrels are onto something
Em D G
And they're working overtime
C ~ Am D
The foxes blink and stare and so do I
G D G
'Cause when fall comes to New England
C G D C
Oh, I can't turn away
G D G C
From fading light on flying wings
G D G C
And late goodbyes a robin sings
G D/F# Em
And then another thousand things
C G D/F# Em
When fall comes to New Eng--land
C G D G
When fall comes to New England
