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