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