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