THE AUTUMN STONE
(Marriott-Lane)
From the LP 'The Autumn Stone'
This is a weird song to play 'cos it's got a weird structure,
  but it's easy enough to play once you got the hang of it.

I was nowhere,
D                          A
Til you changed my mind.
                           E             F#madd11 E
Love is sent through being good to you.
E F#madd11 E
F#madd11 E               F#madd11 E
Then you were somewhere,
D
Somewhere hard to find,
A                               E       F#madd11 E
Only what you always were, it's true.
E F#madd11 E
E                  B
I'm looking for an open door,
D                   A                 E        F#madd11 E
Where I can sit and play in peace and quiet.

E F#madd11 E
D
Fields of green today,
A                             E       F#madd11 E
Yesterday is dead, but not my memory.
E F#madd11 E
        E          F#madd11 E
We were strangers.
D
And then you came to stay,
    A                                    E     F#madd11 E
The sweetest spring old morning sings to me.
E F#madd11 E
E                   B
So now I've found a living sound,
     D                         A                  E    F#madd11 E
That moves, that breathes, and then makes love to me.
