        C           Am        F       C  
In the Spring of my life, she came to me  
                      Em       Am                 Dm7   G7  
She brought sunshine,    where winter winds, had blown  
       C               Em           F            C    E7 
Then I took her for my wife, in the spring of my life  
        Am           Dm7  G7         C     Em7 A7 
And she brought me a joy,    I never known  
        D                Bm          G           D   
And the years, they went by, in the spring of my life  
              F#m     Bm                 Em7   A7 
And in summer,    she blessed, me with a child  
        D         F#m           G            D   F#7       
Love continued to grow, in the summer of my life  
        Bm           Em7  A7            D    Dm7 G7 
And in every morning sun,    I saw her smile  
           C            Am       F           C  
But in the autumn of my years, I noticed the tears  
           Em       Am               Dm7  G7  
And I knew that our life, was in the past  
         C           Em      F               C   E7 
Though I tried to pretend, I knew it was the end  
        Am           Dm7   G7             C    Em7 A7  
For the autumn of my life,    had come at last  
    D                 Bm        G        D  
Now what, what do you say, to a child of ten ?  
           F#m           Bm            Em7    A7 
How do you tell him, his daddy's going away ?  
     D              F#m             G            D   F#7     
Do I tell him, that I, reached the autumn of my life   
         Bm          Em7   A7               D   Dm7 G7  
And that he'll understand,    some winter's day ?  
        C             Am          F            C  
Now the rose can't be found, on a snow covered ground  
            Em          Am             Dm7         G7 
And the Sun,    can not shine, through cloudy skys  
        C           Em           F                 C  E7      
But I'm richer, you see, for the years she gave to me  
           Am           F       G7    C   
And I'm content, in the autumn, of my life...
