Intro: G C  G C 
  
G 
Once I sat upon a hill 
   C 
To watch the world go by 
   G 
My friend the young magician 
       C 
Had forbidden me to cry 
    Am7 
But I was the comedian 
         D                  Dsus2 
With the laughs in short supply

G 
The sunlight filtered softly through 
    C 
The pale and watery sky 
   G 
To catch the mirrored salmon 
      C 
As it rose to take the fly 
    Am7 
The flowers on the riverbank 
     D             Dsus2 
Were left alone to die

Bridge: 
    D 
The church bells sounded midnight 
     Am7     D       Am7 
As I rose to say goodbye 
  
A solitary tear fell from 
    D 
The corner of my eye_____
