Intro:

      Gadd2  G4add2       [kbd r.B. voicings: A - B - D - G , A - C - D - G ]

         Gadd2         G4addA
      One day we walked along the sand
         Gadd2  Gadd#4 G4add2      [Gadd#4: G - B - C# - D ]
      One day in early Spring
      C#m7       F#m7  Bm9
      You held a piper in your hand
         Bm9       E7     A4  Aadd2   [ Bm9 : F# - A - C# - D; Aadd2: B - C# - E ]
      To mend it's broken wing
          Gm     A7M5   Dm7    Dm7/C
      Now I'll remember many a day
          Bm7-5  E7-(b9)5 Am9
      And many a lonely mile
          Am7  Cm6  Bm7     Em7  [r.B : F# - B - D ]
      The echo of a piper's song
          Am9    D9      G4   B4
      The shadow of your smile

Verse 1:

                         F#m7
      The shadow of your smile
           B13 B7-9+5     Em9     A13
      When you        are gone
                          Am7
      Will follow all my dreams
          D13  D7-9+5     Gmaj9  C6/9
      And light       the dawn
                   F#m7-5  B7-(b9)5 B7-9     Em7   Em9/D
      Look into my eyes my love        and see
                     C#m7-5     F#13 F#7-9+5   F#m7  B13
      All the lovely things you are          to me

Verse 2:

          Em7            F#m7
      Our wistful little star
           B13 B7-9+5     Em9   A13#11
      Went far        too high
                             Am7      D9 D7-9/C    Bm7-5
      A teardrop kissed your lips and so        did I
      E7-(b9)5 E7-9        Am7             Cm7
             Now when I remember Spring
      F9                Bm7       F9
      All the joys that love can bring
      E13 E7-9+5      A9    Eb(b9)5
            I will be remembering
      Am11/D    Am7-5/D    [ G ]
      The shadow of your smile

Coda:

      [string tag which I haven't transcribed yet]

      [final chord sounds like a polychord: G major in the left hand,
      A major in the right, with vibes adding a high G# on top]
