[Verse 1]
         D/A                  C/G
1st of October, the summer's over
                 D/A                  C/G
The leaves are falling all around my door
                D/A                  C/G
The midnight walking, early morning talking
                     D/A                           C/G
Can't you hear us whispering, walking across your floor
                  D/A
Walking on your floor

[Verse 2]
                  D/A                  C/G
Well, I'm going deeper, my brother's keeper
             D/A                  C/G
I'm looking out for him the best I can
              D/A                 C/G
He's getting older, the year is colder
                       D/A                          C/G
Got to lean a little closer now and hear what he's saying
              D/A
Hear what he says

[Verse 3]
                D/A                      C/G
We'll go out rambling all through the brambling
               D/A             C/G
Long shadows falling far out ahead
                     D/A                        C/G
The rose hips have grown now, the year is in slowdown
                          D/A                    C/G
Your long hair and long dress, let them fall for me
                  D/A
Let them fall for me

[Interlude]

[Pre-Chorus]
     C/G              Bm
And will you wait for me to come home?
 C/G              D/A
Will you wait for me?

| C/G | D/A | C/G |

[Chorus]
 D/A C/G D/A                     C/G
Brotherrrrrr, put that weight on me
 D/A C/G D/A                     C/G
Brotherrrrrr, put that weight on me

[Verse 4]
                   D/A                     C/G
Great works don't lie there, grind up and dry there
                  D/A                    C/G
They wait for impatiently your hands to find
                  D/A                       C/G
Leaf through the pages, can't you feel the ages
              D/A                      C/G
Rise up like dust now in the sunlight there
          D/A
In the sunlight

Will you wait for me?

I'm looking out for him the best I can
