Killing The Blues

John Prine
Leaves were falling.. Just like embers
In colors red and gold they set us on fire
Burning just like a moonbeam.. In our eyes
Chorus:
Somebody said they saw me
Swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud.
Killing the blues
I am guilty of something
I hope you never do because there is nothing
Sadder than losing.. Yourself in love
Repeat chorus:
Repeat chorus:
Now, you ask me just to leave you
To go out on my own and get what I need to
You want me to find.. What I've already had
Repeat chorus:
Repeat chorus:
Repeat chorus:
Repeat chorus:
