D5      B5        G5
   I remember my mother
        D5       C5          G5
she was all the world to me
D5        B5             G5
   when I sent for her brother
    A5     G5          D5
my father answered me
D5          B5               G5
   so when I wish for the summer
    D5      C5       G5
I'm miles out to sea
D5    B5                  G5
   first comes fall then winter
    A5            G5       D5
now all that's left is spring

C5  G5  D5
A5 G5  D5

D5     B5                 G5
   a little peace and quiet
       D5        C5      G5
let it all wash over me
D5     B5                 G5
   if all the world's a choir
           A5       G5      D5
then it's time for us to sing

C5  G5  D5
A5 G5  D5
