Verse 
A  
I won't forget the late September 
Where we danced among the midnight embers 
               Bm 
But it's going like a half-remembered dream 
A 
Left and north of where we met 
Thinking better of going west 
        Bm 
Yeah we lost each other in a river stream 
D 
I thought I'd come and find you there 
Wait until you lost your hair 
    Bm 
And got your place out in the woods 
D 
You're not afraid of trees or bears 
Or anything with tendencies 
         Bm 
To wanna hurt you good 


[Refrão]
A 
The only thing I learnt in a year 
                               Bm 
Where I didn't smile once, not really 
A 
Nothing matters more than love, no 
                                 Bm 
Nothing, no, not nothing no, not nearly 
D                       E 
We've not got long, you know 
   A                   D 
To bask in the afterglow 
Bm                  E 
Once it's gone it's gone 
A                 D 
Love waits for no one
