As Tears Go By

[G]It is the [Am]evening of the [C]day  [D]

[G]I sit and w[Am]atch the children [C]play  [D]

[C]smiling faces [D]I can see [G]but not for [Em]me

[C]I sit and watch as tears go [D]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
