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
