                       D  G 
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

                       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
