AmAs I sat sadly by her side G FAt the window through the glaGss AmShe stroked a kitten in her lapG And we Fwatched the world as it fell pGast AmSoftly she spoke these words to Gme FAnd with brand new eyes, open wiGde AmWe pressed our faces to the glGass F G Am (Fig A) As I sat sadly by her side.
AmShe said, 'Father, mother, sister, brotheGr, FUncle, aunt, nephew, niGece, AmSoldier, sailor, physician, laboureGr, FActor, scientist, mechanic, prieGst, AmEarth and moon and sun and starGs FPlanets and comets with tails blGazing AmAll are there forever fallingG F G Am (Fig A) Falling lovely and amazing.'
AmThen she smiled and turned to Gme FAnd waited for me to rGeply AmHer hair was falling down her shouGlders F G Am (Fig A) As I sat sadly by her side.
AmAs I sat sadly by her sideG FThe kitten she did gently pFass AmOver to me and again we presseGd Our Fdifferent faces to the glGass Am'That may be very well,' I saidG 'But Fwatch that one falling in the streGet AmSee him gesture to his neighbourSG FSee him trampled beneath their fGeet AmAll outward motion connects to nothGing FFor each is concerned with their immediate nGeed AmWitness the man reaching up from the guGtter F G Am (Fig A) See the other one stumbling on who he can not see.
AmWith trembling hand I turned toward heGr FAnd pushed the hair out of her eyGes AmThe kitten jumped back to her lGap F G Am (Fig A) As I sat sadly by her side.
AmThen she drew the curtains doGwn FAnd said, 'When will you ever leGarn AmThat what happens there beyond the glaGss FIs simply none of your concGern? AmGod has given you but one heaGrt FYou are not a home for the hearts of your brGothers AmAnd God does not care for your benevolenGce FAnymore than he cares for the lack of it in oGthers AmNor does he care for those who sitG FAt windows in judgement of the world He creGated AmWhile sorrows pile up around himG F F Am (Fig A) Ugly, useless and over-inflated.
AmAt which she turned her head awGay FGreat tears leaping from her eGyes AmI could not wipe the smile from my fGace F G Am (Fig B) As I sat sadly by her side.
