Em (022000@1)            G (320003@1)Think of seven letters

F (133211@1)      Em (022000@1)    Am (x02210@1)For his handker-chief.
Am (x02210@1)       Em (022000@1)         F (133211@1)Pearls of sweat on his collar
    F (133211@1)        Em (022000@1)     AmHis (x02210@1)pulse-beat seems so brief.

Em (022000@1)              G (320003@1)Eyes fall on his wristwatch
    F#m (244222@1)             AThe (x02220@1)seconds pass real slow
