D      Bm        G
   I remember my mother
        D       C          G
she was all the world to me
D        Bm             G
   when I sent for her brother
    A     G          D
my father answered me
D          Bm               G
   so when I wish for the summer
    D      C       G
I'm miles out to sea
D    Bm                  G
   first comes fall then winter
    A            G       D
now all that's left is spring

C  G  D
Am G  D

D     Bm                 G
   a little peace and quiet
       D        C      G
let it all wash over me
D     Bm                 G
   if all the world's a choir
           A       G      D
then it's time for us to sing

C  G  D
Am G  D
