Standard (EADGBE)
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
smiling faces I can see but not for me
I sit and watch as tears go by
My richness can't buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
all I hear is the sound of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch as tears go by
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
doing things I used to do they think of you
I sit and watch as tears go by
