The Note That Lingers On

     D                 G              D                                      G                                 D  
I saw you by the river that goes flowing on forever
                                  A                    D                                                                                    A  
The blossoms from the apple tree were falling for your charms
     D                      G                    D                                            G                                            D  
I looked at you, you looked at me, but those of us could barely see
                                     A                                 D                            A                                                 D  
But the river stood between us, and the slightest chance of harm
                D                 G                    D                                                    G                              D  
I was walking down the road that leads from August to September
                                        A                 D                                                                                         A  
When I saw you picking berries with their colours on your hand
                        D                    G              D                                         G                                         D  
Like the swallows on the rooftop you were making plans for winter
                                     A              D                                         A                                            D  
When I came a little closer, like the swallows you were gone
                     D              G                 D                                      G                                         D  
          But do you know or don?t you, that I?ll be thinking of you
                                                             A                 D                                                                              A  
          That I feel you?re right beside me, in the singing of the song
                                     D                 G                      D                                                 G                            D  
          And we?ll sing it where the road goes round the corner to remember
                                                  A              D                                    A                                            D  
          That the magic of the music?s in the note that lingers on
                          D         G                 D                                 G                                 D  
There was ice upon the river and the city seems to shiver
                                     A              D                                                                                      A  
Til I saw you in the marketplace that keeps the winter warm
                        D                 G                      D                              G                                    D  
You were selling herbs and spices and a drink of human kindness
                                  A                 D                                      A                                                 D  
And a candle for the window that the darkness might be gone
Repeat Chorus
                        D            G                 D                                         G                                            D  
When the ice begins to splinter and the spring is coaxing winter
                                        A              D                                                                                         A  
And the taking of his racquet coat, our days are turning warm
                        D                 G              D                                      G                                    D  
With the seasons I?ll remember, that as June said to December
                        A                 D                                    A                                      D  
Love and life is letting go, as much as holding on
Repeat Chorus
