Folk & Traditional Song Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk Leaves that Are Green 
Leaves that Are Green 
(CCDD) CGC/CFG7C/FG7/CGCGC/CGAm/AmFG 
I was 21 years when I wrote this song I'm 22 now, but I won't be for long Time hurries on
 And the leaves that are green turn to brown And they wither with the wind And they crumble in your hand 
Once my heart was filled with the love of a girl I held her close, but she faded in the night Like a poem I meant to write
 CHORUS 
I through a pebble in a brook And watched the ripples run away And they never made a sound
 CHORUS Hello hello hello hello Goodbye goodbye goodbye goodbye That's all there is And the leaves that are green turn to brown 
By Paul Simon and Art Garfunkle DC
