As Tears Go By

       G A C D G 
       It is the evening of the day 
       A C D C 
       I sit and watch the children play 
       D G Em C 
       Smiling faces I can see, but not for me 
       D G 
       I sit and watch as tears go by

                    A C D G 
                    My riches can't buy ev'rything 
                    A C D C 
                    I want to hear the children sing 
                    D G Em C 
                    All I hear is the sound of the rain falling on the ground 
                    D G 
                    I sit and watch as tears go by

                    A C D G 
                    It is the evening of the day 
                    A C D C 
                    I sit and watch the children play 
                    D G Em C 
                    Doin' things I used to do, they think are new 
                    D G 
                    I sit and watch as tears go by
