Verse
F Gm
Summer's smiling on the city
C F
Another lovely day in Sydney
Gm
Sunshine pouring down like honey
C F
In a golden waterfall
Gm
But in the room where Clare is dying
C F
No sunshine sends the shadows flying
Gm
No children gather round her crying
C F
There's no one there at all
Gm
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
A# 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
A# C F
That's just how it is, don't look for a reason at all
[Verse 2]
F Gm
Winter weeping on the city
C F
G wet and windy day in Sydney
Gm
Raindrops rolling fat and heavy
C F
Down Clare's window pane
Gm
The raindrops on the tin roof beating
C F
Disturbs the rats as they are feeding
Gm
Back to the nest they all go creeping
C F
Leaving Clare alone again
Gm
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
A# 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
A# C F
And that's all there is, don't look for a reason in it all
[Verse 3]
F Gm
Springtime's come at last to Sydney
C F
Flowers are blooming in the city
Gm
In all their multicoloured glory
C F
They rise to greet the year
Gm
Memories in shame recalling
C F
Footsteps on the front porch falling
Gm
Voices through the window calling
C F
"Is anybody there?"
Gm
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
A# 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
A# 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
A# 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
A# 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
A# 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
A# C F
To make some sense of it; to try to find a reason for it all
[Ending]
A# C F
That's just how it is, don't look for a reason at all
A# C F
Ah, there must a way, there must be reason for it all
