Lyrics
He made the (Bb)night a little (F)brighter (A7)wherever he would (Dm)go.
(F7)The (Bb)old (Bdim7)(F)lamplighter (Bb)of (F)long, (G9)long (C7)ago.
His snowy (Bb)hair was so much (F)whiter (A7)beneath the candle (Dm)glow,
(F7)the (Bb)old (Bdim7)(F)lamplighter (Bb)of (F)long, (C7)long (F)ago.
You'd hear the (F)patter of his (F6)feet as he came (F)toddling down the (F6)street,
his (F)smile would hide a (F6)lonely heart you (F)see.
If there were (Gm)sweethearts in the (Gm6)park,
he'd pass a (Gm)lamp and leave it (Gm6)dark (Gm)remembering the (Gm6)days that used to (Gm)be.
For he (F)recalls when dreams were (F6)new,
he loved (F)someone who loved him (F6)too,
who (F)walks with him (Bb)alone in (C7)(F)memory.
He made the (F)glow.
He turns them (F)on when night is (F6)here,
he turns them (F)off when dawn is (F6)here,
the (F)little man we (Bb)loved of (C7)long (F)ago.
