G 
September's gone 
                              G 
She smiled and kissed him goodbye 
                           G 
She taught him just how to live 
       Em                                    D 
Now he knows how to love and he knows how to give 
 
          G 
And to be strong 
                            G 
He knows what man he should be 
                       G 
No longer waits on the shelf 
       Em                       D 
Now he knows how to love and to give of himself  
 
(chorus) 
          C   
When they danced in the blue rain  
    C                       G 
She tempted his soul with desire 
                C 
Though they had fun in the game 
                        Em 
He didn't expect to get caught 
       D            C 
In her fire, in her fire  
 
            G 
September's gone 
                            G 
She freed his soul from its cage 
                           G 
She closed the book on his pain 
       Em                     D 
Now he waits for her still to haunt him again...
