Lyrics

It is the (F7)evening of the (Ab)day,

(Eb)I sit and (F7)watch the children (Ab)play.

(Ab)Smiling faces (Bb7)I can see,

(Eb)but not for (Cm)me.

(Ab)I sit and watch as (Gm)tears (Fm7)go (Bb7)by.

(Eb)My riches (F7)can't buy (Ab)ev'rything,

(Eb)I want to (F7)hear the children (Ab)sing.

(Ab)All I hear es (Bb7)is the sound

(Eb)but not for (Cm)me.

(Ab)I sit and watch as (Gm)tears (Fm7)go (Bb7)by.

(Eb)of rain falling (Cm)on the ground,

(Ab)I sit and watch as (Gm)tears (Fm7)go (Bb7)by.

(Eb)It is the (F7)evening of the (Ab)day,

(Eb)I sit and (F7)watch the children (Ab)play.

(Ab)Doin' things I (Bb7)used to do,

(Eb)they think are (Cm)new.

(Ab)I sit and watch as (Gm)tears (Fm7)go (Bb7)by.

(Eb)Mm.

(Eb)Mm.

(Fm7)Mm.
