A
Autumn days, the doors you face
G
They're never gone, you never cry
              Bm
But if your bridge ever falls, if it does
D
If it does, I'll catch you babe, I will

Autumn fires that blaze and burn
The shadow days, the red, the brown
They let you fall, they let you down
Let you down, that's the way I am

G  D            A
Before they're gone
               G      D   A E
You know they won't stay long

Chorus:
             Bm
We could be weightless
      A            E
Like birds in the night
            Bm
Wherever we go
         A        E
Set the world on fire
                 Bm
We could be the darkness
            A         E
Breaking across the sky
      Bm              F#m    E
If I lose you on the border line
      D                    A    E
I'll see you on the other side, Ah

Autumn days, the doors you face
They're never gone, you never cry
But if your bridge ever falls, if it does
If it does, I'll catch you, babe I will

Autumn fires that blaze and burn
The shadow days, the red, the brown
They let you fall, they let you down
Let you down, that's the way I am

Before they're gone
You know they won't stay long

Chorus:
We could be reckless
Like birds in the night
Wherever we go
Set the world on fire
We could be the darkness
Breaking across the sky
If I lose you on the borderline
I'll see you on the other side

              Bm F#m E Bm
On the other side
              A  E Bm
On the other side
           F#m E
The other side

Chorus:
We could be reckless
Like birds in the night
Wherever we go
Set the world on fire
We could be reckless
Like birds in the night
Wherever we go
Set the world on fire
We could be the darkness
Breaking across the sky
If I lose you on the borderline
I'll see you on the other side

Autumn days, the doors you face
They're never gone, you never cry
But if your bridge ever falls, if it does
If it does, I'll catch you, babe
I will
