7 7 -7 -7 -7 -6 -6 -6 6
Autumn days when the grass is jewelled
5 6 7 7 -7 -7 -6 -7 6
And the silk inside a chestnut shell
7 7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -6 6 -6 -7 -6 6
Jet planes meeting in the air to be refuelled
5 4 5 5 5 5 5
All these things I love so well

Chorus:

5 5 5 -4 4 6
So I mustn’t forget
7 7 7 7 7 -6
No I mustn’t forget
-7 7 7 -7 -7 -6 6 6 5 6 5 4
To say a great big «thank you,» I mustn’t forget

-7 -6 -7 -6 -7 -6 6 7
-7 -6 -7 -6 -7 -6 6
-6 -5 -6 -5 -6 -5 5 6
-5 -4 -5 -4 -5 5 4

The fall-ing leaves drift by my window
7o 7i 8i 10i 7o 7i 8i 10o

The autumn leaves of red and gold.
6i 7o 7i 9i 6o 6i- 7o- 8o

I see your lips the summer kisses
7i 8i 8o 10i 7o 7i 8i 10o

The sun-burned hands I used to hold.
6i 7o 7i 9i 8o 9i 8o 7i

Since you went a-way the days grow long,
7o- 7i 8i 6o 8i 8i 7i 8i 8o

And soon I’ll hear old win-ter’s song.
8o 8i 8o 9i 7o 11o 10i 10o

But I miss you most of all my darling,
9i 10o 10i 10i 9i 9i 8i 10i 10o

When autumn leaves start to fall.
7o 9i 9o 8i 9o 6o 7i

By the B-B-Q.

Come the after-noon,
Grand-pa has a doze,

Then pack the car and all shoot through,
Be-fore the wash-ing up!

Aura Lee, the bird may flee, the willow’s golden hair
Swing through winter fitfully on cold and stormy air
Yet if thine eyes I see gloom will soon depart
For to me sweet Aura Lee is sunshine through my heart

When the mistletoe was green amidst the winter’s snows
Sunshine in thy face was seen and kissing lips of rose
Aura Lee, Aura Lee, take my golden ring
Love and light return witt thee and swallows with the spring
