As Tears Go By Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Marianne Faithfull
Hi, I searched the internet far and wide for this classic 60's hit and couldn't 
find a tab for it, so I decided to tab it for everyone.  I hope you enjoy it.  


I play it picking style by hitting the root note then the G-B-e-B-G strings.

Examples of three chords:
       C                        D                      G
e------------0-----      e---------2-----     e-------------3-------|
B----------1---1---      B-------3---3---     B----------0-----0----|
G--------0--------0      G-----2--------2     G-------0-----------0-|
D-----X------------      D---0-----------     D-----X---------------|
A---3--------------      A-X-------------     A---X-----------------|
E-X----------------      E-X-------------     E-3-------------------|

It is the evening of the day,
C             D              F   G
I sit and watch the children play.
F             G          C           Am  F         F                G  G
Smiling faces I can see, but not for me, I sit and watch as tears go by.
C               D        F    G
My riches can't buy everything,
C              D            F   G
I want to hear the children sing.
F          G            C              Am
All I hear is the sound of rain falling on the ground,
F         F                 G  G
I sit and watch as tears go by.
