C        Am         F          G7 
Try to remember the kind of September 
     C        Am       F     G7 
When life was slow and oh so mellow 
C        Am         F          G7 
Try to remember the kind of September 
     C         Am        F         G7 
When grass was green and grain was yellow 

Em       Am          F           G7 
Try to remember when life was so tender 
     C           Am    F        G7 
That love was an ember about to billow 
C        Am         F        G7 
Try to remember and if you remember 
     C      Em  F  G7 
Then follow 

C        Am          F           G7 
Try to remember when life was so tender 
     C      Am     F        G7 
That no one wept except the willow 
C        Am          F           G7 
Try to remember when life was so tender 
     C           Am     F         G7 
That dreams were kept beside your pillow 

Em        Am          F         G7 
Deep in December it's nice to remember 
    C          Am          F       G7 
The fire of September that made us mellow 
C         Am          F         G7 
Deep in December it's nice to remember 
    C 
And follow
