The chords are simple to this song but the intro and 1st verse has some nice variations 
of the old I-V-vi-IV progression. Don't let these voicing scare you - you can just use 
the plain ol' ones too.

Intro
    x2

            
I walked to th

              
e door with yo

  
u, the air was

 cold
            
But something 

              
about it felt 

     
like home some

how, and I,
            
Left my scarf 

              
there at your 

 
sisters house
            
And you still 

              
got it, in you

   (
r drawer, even

 now


   


             
Oh your sweet 

              
dispositon and

    
 my wide eyed 

gaze
            
We're singing 

              
in the car get

     
ting lost upst

ate
             
The autumn lea

              
ves falling do

        
wn like pieces

 into place
            
And I can pict

             
ure it after a

ll these days

             
And I know it'

              
s long gone an

       
d, and magics 

not here no mo

re
                                         
 
And I might be

 okay but I'm 

not fine at al

l


             
Cause there we

              
 are again on 

     
that little to

wn street
            
You almost ran

              
 the red cause

          
 you were look

in' over at me
             
Wind in my hai

Photo album on

              
 the counter y

    
our cheeks wer

e turning red
              
You used to be

            
 a little kid 

              
with glasses i

    
n a twin size 

bed
             
And your mothe

              
rs telling sto

eam
            
You tell me ab

              
out your past

future was me


             
And I know it'

d do

Cause here we

We dance aroun

rator light
             
Down the stair
