The Note That Lingers On

(1 

Capo 1


Intro: D  D  A  A  D  D 

  D       G      D               G             D 
I saw you by the river that goes flowing on forever 
             A        D                                A 
The blossoms from the apple tree were falling for your charms 
  D         G        D                 G                 D 
I looked at you, you looked at me, but those of us could barely see 
              A             D           A                   D 
But the river stood between us, and the slightest chance of harm 

      D       G        D                    G            D 
I was walking down the road that leads from August to September 
               A       D                                  A 
When I saw you picking berries with their colours on your hand 
         D        G      D                G                D 
Like the swallows on the rooftop you were making plans for winter 
              A      D                A                 D 
When I came a little closer, like the swallows you were gone 


        D      G       D               G                D 
    But do you know or don’t you, that I’ll be thinking of you 
                       A       D                              A 
    That I feel you’re right beside me, in the singing of the song 
              D       G         D                   G           D 
    And we’ll sing it where the road goes round the corner to remember 
                   A      D              A                 D 
    That the magic of the music’s in the note that lingers on 

          D    G       D             G             D 
There was ice upon the river and the city seems to shiver 
              A      D                                 A 
Til I saw you in the marketplace that keeps the winter warm 
         D       G         D            G              D 
You were selling herbs and spices and a drink of human kindness 
             A       D               A                   D 
And a candle for the window that the darkness might be gone 

Repeat Chorus 

         D     G       D                G                 D 
When the ice begins to splinter and the spring is coaxing winter 
               A      D                                  A 
And the taking of his racquet coat, our days are turning warm 
         D       G      D               G              D 
With the seasons I’ll remember, that as June said to December 
         A       D              A               D 
Love and life is letting go, as much as holding on 

Repeat Chorus
