Today – September 22, 2009 – marks the official beginning of Autumn in the northern hemisphere. Astronomically speaking, it is the autumnal equinox, one of only two days per year in which night and day are of approximately equal length and the Sun crosses the celestial equator. (If you’re curious, the Sun crosses the equator from north to south during the autumnal equinox, and south to north during the vernal/spring equinox.)

But most of us don’t need an astronomer to tell us that summer is ending, and that before long winter will be upon us. We simply observe the daylight growing shorter, feel the cool breeze in the air, and notice the leaves changing color. Throw in the bombardment of Halloween marketing campaigns that we endure every year beginning around this time, and that’s how most of us know when Autumn has finally arrived.

To pay tribute to The Sheriff’s favorite season, here are a handful of Autumn inspired song tabs to feast your eyes upon. As always, I’ve tried to include songs from as many different genres as possible, covering everything from Adult Alternative and British Invasion to Alternative Metal. Hope you enjoy!
