Verse 1
When [Cm7Minor 7th Chord (U,m3,P5,m7)
on the Major Second] I was a		 [F7(add♭9)Dominant Minor 9th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7,m9)
on the Perfect Fifth] young man		 [B♭maj7Major 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,M7)
on the Perfect Unison v1] courting the		 [Gm7Minor 7th Chord (U,m3,P5,m7)
on the Major Sixth] girls
I [Cm7Minor 7th Chord (U,m3,P5,m7)
on the Major Second] played me a		 [F7(add♭9)Dominant Minor 9th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7,m9)
on the Perfect Fifth] waiting		 [B♭6Major 6th Chord (U,M3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison v1] game
If a [Cm7Minor 7th Chord (U,m3,P5,m7)
on the Major Second] maid re-		 [F7(add♭9)Dominant Minor 9th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7,m9)
on the Perfect Fifth] fused me with		 [B♭6Major 6th Chord (U,M3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison v1] tossing		 [B°Diminished Chord (U,m3,d5)
on the Augmented Unison] curls
I'd [Cm6Minor 6th Chord (U,m3,P5,M6)
on the Major Second] let the old		 [F+99th Augmented Chord (U,M3,A5,m7,M9)
on the Perfect Fifth] earth take a		 [B♭maj7Major 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,M7)
on the Perfect Unison v7] couple of		 [Gm7Minor 7th Chord (U,m3,P5,m7)
on the Major Sixth] whirls
While I [Cm7♭5Minor 7th, Flat 5th Chord (U,m3,d5,m7)
on the Major Second] plied her with		 [F7Dominant 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7)
on the Perfect Fifth] tears in		 [GmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5)
on the Major Sixth] lieu of		 [Gm7Minor 7th Chord (U,m3,P5,m7)
on the Major Sixth] pearls
And as [Cm7Minor 7th Chord (U,m3,P5,m7)
on the Major Second] time came a-		 [F7(add♭9)Dominant Minor 9th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7,m9)
on the Perfect Fifth] round she		 [B♭maj7Major 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,M7)
on the Perfect Unison v4] came my		 [Gm7Minor 7th Chord (U,m3,P5,m7)
on the Major Sixth] way
As [Cm7Minor 7th Chord (U,m3,P5,m7)
on the Major Second] time came a-		 [F7(add♭9)Dominant Minor 9th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7,m9)
on the Perfect Fifth] round she		 [B♭maj9Major 9th Chord (U,M3,P5,M7,M9)
on the Perfect Unison] came

Chorus
Oh, it's a [B♭m6Minor 6th Chord (U,m3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison] long, long while from		 [G♭7Dominant 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7)
on the Minor Sixth] May to De-		 [B♭maj7Major 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,M7)
on the Perfect Unison v4] cember		 [B♭6Major 6th Chord (U,M3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison v1]
But the days grow [C7Dominant 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7)
on the Major Second] short		 [Cm7♭5Minor 7th, Flat 5th Chord (U,m3,d5,m7)
on the Major Second] ...  when you		 [F7(add♭9)Dominant Minor 9th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7,m9)
on the Perfect Fifth] reach Sep-		 [B♭maj7Major 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,M7)
on the Perfect Unison v4] tember		 [B♭6Major 6th Chord (U,M3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison v1]
When the autumn [B♭m6Minor 6th Chord (U,m3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison] weather turns the		 [G♭7Dominant 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7)
on the Minor Sixth] leaves to		 [B♭maj7Major 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,M7)
on the Perfect Unison v4] flame,		 [B♭6Major 6th Chord (U,M3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison v1]
One hasn't got [C7Dominant 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7)
on the Major Second] time		 [Cm7♭5Minor 7th, Flat 5th Chord (U,m3,d5,m7)
on the Major Second] ... for the		 [F7(add♭9)Dominant Minor 9th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7,m9)
on the Perfect Fifth] waiting		 [B♭maj7Major 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,M7)
on the Perfect Unison v4] game.		 [B♭6Major 6th Chord (U,M3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison v1]
Oh, the [E♭m6Minor 6th Chord (U,m3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Fourth] days dwindle down to the		 [E°Diminished Chord (U,m3,d5)
on the Augmented 4th] precious few, Sep-		 [E♭m6Minor 6th Chord (U,m3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Fourth] tember, No-		 [E°Diminished Chord (U,m3,d5)
on the Augmented 4th] vem-		 ber! [B♭6Major 6th Chord (U,M3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison v12]
And these few [B♭m6Minor 6th Chord (U,m3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison] precious days I'll		 [G♭7Dominant 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7)
on the Minor Sixth] spend with		 [B♭maj7Major 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,M7)
on the Perfect Unison v4] you,		 [B♭6Major 6th Chord (U,M3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison v1]
These precious [C7Dominant 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7)
on the Major Second] days I'll		 [Cm7♭5Minor 7th, Flat 5th Chord (U,m3,d5,m7)
on the Major Second] spend		 [Bmaj7Major 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,M7)
on the Augmented Unison] with		 [B♭6Major 6th Chord (U,M3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison v1] you.		 [B♭6Major 6th Chord (U,M3,P5,M6)
on the Perfect Unison v12]
