Mountain eyes, peeping out if his head (-ah)
Sipping tea, composing in his bed (-ah)
                                           C5

Child star, protegee of Mister Gormez who said you'd go far
C5                                                 A5

                                                         C5

Debussy and Mendelssohn Handel and Dvorak they hear

C5                                                     A5
Child star, protegee of Mister Gomez who said you'd go far
C5                                                            A5
Child star, and when you died at just thirteen they wept and wrung their hair

(slightly slower)
D5
Sad to see them mourning you and you are there within the flowers and the trees
C5                                                     A5
Child star, protegee of Mister Gomez who said you'd go far
