[Verso 1]

  D              A                 G               Bm 
I sit beside the fire and think of all that I have seen 
   D                  A              G                 Bm 
Of meadow flowers and butterflies in summers that have been 

                      G           A                  D 
Of yellow flowers and gossamer in autumns that there were, 
     Bm               G              A            D 
with morning mist and silver sun and wind upon my hair. 



[Verso 2]

                 A                 G                  Bm 
I sit beside the fire and think of how the world will be 
     D                A                 G            Bm 
when winter comes without a spring that I shall ever see. 

                       G                A            D 
For still there are so many things that I have never seen: 
   Bm            G                  A              D 
in every wood in every spring there is a different green.

[Verso 3]

                 A                 G            Bm 
I sit beside the fire and think of people long ago 
    D               A                G             Bm 
and people who will see a world that I shall never know. 

                    G                A                  D 
But all the while I sit and think of times there were before, 
  Bm           G                A             D 
I listen for returning feet and voices at the door.

But all the while I sit and think of times there were before, 
  Bm           G                A             D 
I listen for returning feet and voices at the door.
