Dm                              C
Time, time, time, see what's become of me
         A#
While I looked around
            Am
For my possibilities
          C
I was so hard to please
           Dm                 C
But look around, leaves are brown
         A#       A7            Dm
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

Hear the Salvation Army band
Down by the riverside
It’s bound to be a better ride
Than what you've got planned
Carry your cup in your hand
And look around you
Leaves are brown now
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

Hang on to your hopes, my friend
That's an easy thing to say
But if your hope should pass away
Simply pretend
That you can build them again
Look around
The grass is high
The fields are ripe
It's the springtime of my life

A#                              F
Ahhh, seasons change with the scenery
                   C
Weaving time in a tapestry
                     Dm
Won't you stop and remember me
C
At any convenient time
A#
Funny how my memory slips while looking
over manuscripts
Am
Of unpublished rhyme
             C
Drinking my vodka and lime
        Dm                  C
I look around, leaves are brown now
         A#       A7            Dm
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

       C                 A#
Look around, leaves are brown
           A7                   Dm
There's a patch of snow on the ground

       C                 A#
Look around, leaves are brown
           A7                   Dm
There's a patch of snow on the ground

       C                 A#
Look around, leaves are brown
           A7                   Dm
There's a patch of snow on the ground
