[Gm]
friend, [G]
are you grieving?
[G]
Over golden [Bb] growth, [F] unleaving?
[Dm] By and by,
[Gm]
leaves like the [C] things of [Gm] men
Can you, [F]
with your [F] fresh thoughts, care for?
Can you, [Dm]
[D]
[Dm] [Bb]
as the [C] heart grows older?
[F] It will come to such [Bb]
sights, much colder
[Dm] By and by, [C] no snare aside,
[Bb] by and by
The worms of [C] wain, one leaf, meal, [F] line
And yet you will [Bb] weep, and you'll [C] know [D] why
[C]
[Bb]
No [C] matter child the name
[Bb] Sorrow springs are all the same
They're all the [D] same
