Verse
C Dm
Summer's smiling on the city
G C
Another lovely day in Sydney
Dm
Sunshine pouring down like honey
G C
In a golden waterfall
Dm
But in the room where Clare is dying
G C
No sunshine sends the shadows flying
Dm
No children gather round her crying
G C
There's no one there at all
Dm
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 Dm
Winter weeping on the city
G C
D wet and windy day in Sydney
Dm
Raindrops rolling fat and heavy
G C
Down Clare's window pane
Dm
The raindrops on the tin roof beating
G C
Disturbs the rats as they are feeding
Dm
Back to the nest they all go creeping
G C
Leaving Clare alone again
Dm
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 Dm
Springtime's come at last to Sydney
G C
Flowers are blooming in the city
Dm
In all their multicoloured glory
G C
They rise to greet the year
Dm
Memories in shame recalling
G C
Footsteps on the front porch falling
Dm
Voices through the window calling
G C
"Is anybody there?"
Dm
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
