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