VERSE 1
********
G F
Here I sit watching the day out
Am F Am
No one beside me who may doubt
Am F G
All of the words that I could chose to say
Am F G
So listen, believe, or be gone from this day
--------------------------
CHORUS
*******
F Am
I need a friend to walk with me
G G Am
Sit in the shade of an old tree
Am F G
To think nothing much, just agree with my thoughts
Am F G
To say nothing much, never tell what I ought
Dm Am F C Bm Dm

VERSE 2
********
G F Am
Watching the people pass by now
G F E Dm
They just don't know why or know how
Am F G
They don't seem to care about all that I've seen
Am F G
They just walk on by never knowing I've been
F Am
Sitting up here where I'm wind blown
G F Am
Only to ask and to be shown
Am F G
Things that would make you believe what I say
Am F G
I'll tell you myself and I'll show you some day
Dm Am F C Bm Dm
G F Am X2
