It is the evening of the day,
C         D                  F   G
I sit and watch the children play.
F             G          C           Am  
Smiling faces I can see, but not for me, 
F                           G
I sit and watch as tears go by.

C         D              F    G
My riches can't buy everything,
C         D                 F   G
I want to hear the children sing.
F          G            C               Am
All I hear is the sound of rain falling on the ground,
F                           G
I sit and watch as tears go by.

Doing things I used to do, they think are new,

I sit and watch as tears go by.
