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
