	        Intro: C - Em 

C 
Silver couplets are underneath the branches 
Em 
Of a wilted maple, raking up the leaves 
F 
Trying find my head, must?ve been out here 
Buried it with the memories of mom and dad 

C 
Slipped through one of my hands, never got too bad 
Em 
But this one?s worse 
                        F 
Still remember jumping in the leaves 
We were merely children, not anything more 
Just learned to drink away our pain 
C 
And it?s a shame, heard you rode in the back seat 
Em 
All the way to long beach 
                           F 
Remember the days you were driving 
You and I were in a mess 
I guess we all fall with our sins, we never wanted 
C 
Find some solace, at least a little piece of mind 
Em 
I know I?m wasting away this time 
       F 
If you focus hard enough on the smoke, from my cigarette 
I think that I see heaven 

Em                        Am 
I can?t blame you for the things that occurred 
              C 
Cause they?re all in my head 
                                    G 
I know that?s wrong, I know thats wrong now 
F                                    C 
And I?m sorry, at least that?s what I think I say 
             G 
Or I?d hoped you?d say

Silver couplets are underneath the branches   ---> From here on out go for full chords rather than picking 
Em 
Of wilted maples, raking up the leaves 
F 
Trying to find my head, must?ve been here 
Buried with the memories 

C                                Em 
Slipped through my hands, I know those wise words 
Oh I know, I know 
F 
We all fall down, by tumbling down 
Can?t seem to catch your fall 
C 
And it?s a shame 
Heard you rode in the back seat  
Em                                      F 
All the way, remember the days you were driving
