Verse 1 
Am            C              E               F7M 
Yeah I'm your lover, I could scale your city walls, 
Am                C             E              F7M 
Though there were others, you never left me at all. 
Am             C        E                   F7M 
Love paved our way with initialled sidewalk streets, 
Am                 C            E                   F7M 
But here comes September and we both know what that means.

G                         F7M  G                        F7M 
Sometimes it's out of our grasp, not everything's made to last. 

Chorus 
              C                 F7M 
If that's you way you wanna remember,  
                D9           F7M 
well that's the way you gotta remember, 
    C       F7M   D              F7M 
But I won't cry now, here comes September.

It's gonna be winter but I guess you'll never know, 
Am         C       E (no chord) F7M 
Coz in California, it doesn't   snow. 
G                         F7M  G                        F7M 
Sometimes it's out of our grasp, not everything's made to last.
