[Verse 1]
A         A4             A    A2
It is the evening of the day
A         A4        A        A2
I sit and watch the children play

G
Smiling faces I can see
A
But not for me
D
I sit and watch
         G
As tears go by


[Verse 2]
A         A4              A   A2
My riches can't buy everything
A         A4                A   A2
I want to hear the children sing

G
All I hear is the sound
A
Of rain falling on the ground
D
I sit and watch
         G
As tears go by

[Verse 3]
A         A4             A   A2
It is the evening of the day
A         A4                 A    A2
I sit and watch the children play

G
Doing things I used to do
A
They think are new
D
I sit and watch
         G
As tears go by

D
I sit and watch
         G
As tears go by

D          G
  As tears go by
