#1.
D (xx0232@1)            G (320003@1)           D (xx0232@1)        
You'd hear the patter of his feet,
D (xx0232@1)                 G (320003@1)      DAs (xx0232@1)he came toddling down the street.
D (xx0232@1)                    G (320003@1)               DHis (xx0232@1)smile would hide a lonely heart, you see.
D (xx0232@1)           Em (022000@1)               Em7
If there were sweethearts in the park,
            Em (022000@1)              Em7
He'd pass a lamp and leave it dark.
  Em (022000@1)          Em7               A7Remembering (x02020@1)the days that used to be.
         D (xx0232@1)                     D7For (xx0212@1)he recalled when things were new.
             D (xx0232@1)               D7He (xx0212@1)loved someone who loved him too.
    D (xx0232@1)             A7 (x02020@1)      DWho (xx0232@1)walks with him alone in memories.

CHORUS:

#2.
D (xx0232@1)        G (320003@1)            DNow (xx0232@1)if you look up in the sky,
D (xx0232@1)                   G (320003@1)    DYou'll (xx0232@1)understand the reason why,
D (xx0232@1)                 G (320003@1)           DThe (xx0232@1)little stars at night are all aglow.
              Em (022000@1)             Em7
He turns them on when night is near,
              Em (022000@1)             Em7
He turns them off when dawn is here.
    D (xx0232@1)            A7 (x02020@1)          DThe (xx0232@1)little man who lived so long ago.
