G         A               C   D
It is the evening of the day...
G          A                  C    D
I sit and watch the children play...
C             D7
Smiling faces I can see
G  Bm&F#    Em G&D
But not for me....
C                           D  D7
I sit and watch As tears go by...
G          A               C    D
My riches can't buy everything...
G          A                 C    D
I want to hear the children sing...
C          D7
All I hear is the sound
G  Bm&F#        Em        G&D
Of rain falling on the ground
C                           D  D7
I sit and watch As tears go by...
G         A               C   D
It is the evening of the day...
G          A                  C    D
I sit and watch the children play...
C              D7
Doin' things I used to do
G    Bm&F#     Em G&D
They think are new...
C                           D  D7
I sit and watch As tears go by..
