It is the evening of the day
C         D                 F     G
I sit and watch the chidren play
F             G7         C           Am
Smiling faces I can see, but not for me
F                           G   G7
I sit and watch as tears go by


My riches can't by 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 on you

I sit and watch as tears go by
