Text File
Capo 1
C/B: 3200xx
Intro: C - C/B - Dm - F x2
Verse1:
C G
We were 17 and on our own
Dm F
When we hit the gas for the great unknown
C G
I was named for a boy, she was named for the fall
Dm F
And nothing much else really mattered at all
Prechorus:
Dm
I knew what happened on her kitchen floor
F
And she knew what it meant when I wrote on the door
Dm
Secrets spilled into that dark
G
And everyone was a piece of my heart
Chorus:
C
It�s a lullaby
G
It�s a beautiful life
Em F
And it sings me to sleep most every night
C
So I hold it close
G
And I hide it away
Em F
That�s how I keep it from going astray
Dm F
Love doesn�t need a rhyme or a reason to be
C - C - C/B-F x2 (listen for timing for change btw C/B to F)
This is the story of Autumn and me.
Verse2:
C G
We grew up fast in a few short years
Dm F
And we littered the path with the tracks of our tears
C G
But we carved our names in the proverbial wall
Dm F
And nothing much else really matters at all
Prechorus:
Dm
We earned every line in our 25 years
F
We cried over boys and we laughed over beers
Dm
I wouldn�t trade the girl for a song
G
She lets me know right where I belong
Chorus:
C
It�s a lullaby
G
It�s a beautiful life
Em F
And it sings me to sleep most every night
C
So I hold it close
G
And I hide it away
Em F
That�s how I keep it from going astray
Dm F
Love doesn�t need a rhyme or a reason to be
C - Gm - C - Gm x2
This is the story of Autumn and me.
Prechorus:
Dm
Rooftop dancing in the summer heat
F
New car crash on a one way street
Dm
Strangers moving up to the fourth floor
G
Strange, now nobody knows me more
Chorus (palm mute the chords):
C
It�s a lullaby
G
It�s a beautiful life
Em F
And it sings me to sleep most every night
C
So I hold it close
G
And I hide it away
Em F
That�s how I keep it from going astray
C
It�s a lullaby
G
It�s a beautiful life
Em F
And it sings me to sleep most every night

And I hide it away
