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