Verse 1

 Well her old friend from her old end of town dropped by today

 And way down deep inside me something died when he came ‘round

 To see her that way

 Here it comes again that same old chilly wind will blow

 Like a cold winter squall

 I begin to feel the chill of an early fall

Chorus

And I'll be drinking again and thinking whenever he calls

There's a storm coming on and it won't be too long till the snow falls

 Oh I'll be sober some but when October comes and goes

 In not time at all

 I'll begin to feel the chill of an early fall

Bridge

 Oh how quickly slip away, here today and gone tomorrow

 Loving seasons never stay, bitter winds are sure to follow

Verse 2

 Now there's no doubt, it's gonna be cold out tonight

 I've shivered all day

 When I look in her eyes and even to hold her so tight

 She just looks away

Chorus 2

 Oh she'll swear that it's true He's just someone she knew long ago

 But I know that's not all

 And I'll begin to feel the chill of an early fall

 Oh I'll begin to feel the chill of an early fall
