[Intro]
G Asus2C D
        x2
[Verse 1]
G         Asus2          C D
It is the evening of the day
G         Asus2              C  D
I sit and watch the children play
C             D
Smiling faces I can see

But not for me

As tears go by

My riches can't buy everything
G         Asus2             C   D
I want to hear the children sing

All I hear is the sound

Of rain falling on the ground

As tears go by

Doing things I used to do

They think are new

As tears go by
