Verse
G# A#m
Summer's smiling on the city
D# G#
Another lovely day in Sydney
A#m
Sunshine pouring down like honey
D# G#
In a golden waterfall
A#m
But in the room where Clare is dying
D# G#
No sunshine sends the shadows flying
A#m
No children gather round her crying
D# G#
There's no one there at all
A#m
Except perhaps for the man who sees
D# G#
Each little sparrow fall
[Chorus Tenor]
G#
Don't talk to me about lonely souls crying
D# G#
Dark quiet rooms with old people dying
C# D# G#
I don't want to hear, I don't want to hear it at all
Tired old people die alone every day
D# G#
Don't blame me, I didn't make it that way
C# D# G#
That's just how it is, don't look for a reason at all
[Verse 2]
G# A#m
Winter weeping on the city
D# G#
A# wet and windy day in Sydney
A#m
Raindrops rolling fat and heavy
D# G#
Down Clare's window pane
A#m
The raindrops on the tin roof beating
D# G#
Disturbs the rats as they are feeding
A#m
Back to the nest they all go creeping
D# G#
Leaving Clare alone again
A#m
It's been a long and lonely time
D# G#
Since Clare could hear the rain
[Tenor Chorus]
G#
Don't talk to me about the meaning of life
D# G#
Don't sing your songs that cut like a knife
C# D# G#
I don't want to hear, I don't want to hear it at all
Lonely old people ain't my concern
D# G#
From dust we come, to dust we return
C# D# G#
And that's all there is, don't look for a reason in it all
[Verse 3]
G# A#m
Springtime's come at last to Sydney
D# G#
Flowers are blooming in the city
A#m
In all their multicoloured glory
D# G#
They rise to greet the year
A#m
Memories in shame recalling
D# G#
Footsteps on the front porch falling
A#m
Voices through the window calling
D# G#
"Is anybody there?"
A#m
Clare Campbell's lost and lonely soul
D# G#
Is a long, long way from here
[Tenor Chorus]
G#
Don't talk to me about life's seasons
D# G#
Don't ask me for answers, don't ask me for reasons
C# D# G#
I don't want to hear, I don't want to hear it at all
From the moment we're born, we start to die
D# G#
A# man can go crazy if he keeps asking why
C# D# G#
That's just how it is, don't look for a reason at all
[Baritone Chorus]
G#
Can't you understand what I'm trying to say
D# G#
There must an answer, there must be a way
C# D# G#
To make some sense of it, to try to find a reason for it all
We are not born just so we can die
D# G#
There must be an answer and we've got to try
C# D# G#
To make some sense of it; to try to find a reason for it all
[Baritone Chorus](Sung simultaneously as the last Tenor Chorus is sung)
G#
Can't you understand what I'm trying to say
D# G#
There must an answer, there must be a way
C# D# G#
To make some sense of it, to try to find a reason for it all
We are not born just so we can die
D# G#
There must be an answer and we've got to try
C# D# G#
To make some sense of it; to try to find a reason for it all
[Ending]
C# D# G#
That's just how it is, don't look for a reason at all
C# D# G#
Ah, there must a way, there must be reason for it all
