        C (x32010@1)        D (xx0232@1)       GOn (320003@1)this strange and mournful day
        C (x32010@1)        D (xx0232@1)     G (320003@1) EmBut (022000@1)the mother and child reunion

Verse 1/
           EmOh, (022000@1)little darling of mine
                DI (xx0232@1)can't for the life of me
           EmRemember (022000@1)a sadder day
                DI (xx0232@1)know they say let it be
                       EmBut (022000@1)it just don't work out that way
                    CAnd (x32010@1)the course of a lifetime runs
         DOver (xx0232@1)and over again

              EmIn (022000@1)such a mysterious way

So there you go, that is the entire song, with all of the chords in the right place, and 
the intro part, which some of the other tabs were missing.

Hope you enjoyed!
