D E G A7
It is the evening of the day
D E G A7
I sit and watch the children play
G A
Smiling faces I can see
D Bm
But not for me
G ' A7 '
I sit and watch as tears go by
My riches can't buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
All I hear is the sound of rain
falling on the ground
I sit and watch as tears go by
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Doing things I used to do
They think are new
I sit and watch as tears go by
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm,
hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm,
hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm

When I was a young girl
Well, I had me a cowboy

Just a free ramblin' man
Verse 3:

But that was a long time
And no matter how I tried
The years just flowed by
Like a broken down dam
Chorus

There's flies in the kitchen
I can hear 'em there buzzin'
And I ain't done nothing
Since I woke up today

How the hell can a person
Go to work in the morning
Then come home in the evening
And have nothing to say?

The song's origins took the form of a live jam at a curling rink concert in Waterloo, Ontario. The group was rushing into the second set and began improvising a rhythm to liven up the crowd. Burton Cummings, the lead singer, began improvising lyrics to fit the music. They liked what they had played and noticed a kid with a cassette recorder making a bootleg copy and asked him for the tape.The subsequent studio recording features the original almost completely unchanged; only a few lines were added.

The song was arranged by Jester Hairston, for the Sidney Poitier film Lilies of the Field (1963), which popularized the song. Curtis Mayfield said "I'd gone to see 'Lilies of the Field,' and the song in it, 'Amen,' was very inspiring for me as was the movie . . . Of course, I'd decided to do a version of it. We put it together in the studio starting off with a musical 'swing low sweet chariot', and then we fell into that particular song with somewhat of a marching rhythm." The song was the first Impressions' hit that Mayfield did not write. Mayfield inserted the title of the song "Keep on Pushing", which was recorded by the Impressions, in-between the lyrics of the song.

Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when did when we first begun.

| Against the Wind - Bob Seger (4/4) |
Intro: G (4 bars)
Verse 1:
-------
G '
It seems like yesterday,
Bm '
But it was long ago.
C G
Jenny was lovely; she was the queen of my nights,
D C
There in the darkness with the radio, playing low.
G '
And the secrets that we shared,
Bm '
The mountains that we moved
C G
Caught like wildfire out of control,
C D
Till there was nothing left to burn and nothing
D
left to prove.
Pre-Chorus:
----------
[Em D] G
And I remember what she said to me,
[Em C] G
How she swore that it never would end.
[Em D] C
I remember how she held me, oh so tight.
C D
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then.
Chorus:
------
G Bm C G
Against the wind, we were running against the wind.
[C Bm ][Am C ]
We were young and strong, we were running against the
G ' ' '
wind.
Verse 2:
-------
G '
And the years rolled slowly past.
Bm '
And I found myself alone.
C G
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends,
D C
I found myself further and further from my home.
G '
And I guess I lost my way.
Bm '
There were oh, so many roads.
C G
I was living to run, and running to live,
C D
Never worrying about paying, or even how
D
much I owed.
Pre-Chorus:
----------
[Em D] G
Runnin' 8 miles a minute for months at a time,
[Em C] G
breaking all of the rules that would bend.
[Em D] C
I begin to find myself just searching,
C D
Searching for shelter again and again.
Chorus:
------
G Bm C G
Against the wind, we were running against the wind.
[C Bm ][Am C ]
We were young and strong, we were running against the
G ' ' '
wind.

Doing the best things so conservatively
Verse 2
-------
And his mother goes to meetings
while his father pulls the maid
And she stirs the tea with councilors
while discussing foreign trade
And she passes looks as well as
bill's at every suave young man
Chorus
Verse 3
-------
And he likes his own backyard
and he likes his fags the best
Cos he's better than the rest
and his arm sweat smells the best
And he hope to grab his father's loot
when Pater passes on
Chorus
Verse 4
-------
And he plays the stocks
and shares and he goes to a regatta
He adores the girl next door
cos he's dying to get at her
But his mother knows the best
about the matrimonial stakes

Verse 1:
-------
Dm F C Dm
A spaceman came traveling on his ship from afar
F C Bb
Twas light years of time since his mission did start
Dm Am Bb Dm
And over a village, he halted his craft
F C Bb
And it hung in the sky like a star
Dm '
Just like a star
Verse 2:
-------
He followed a light and came down to a shed
Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed
A bright light of silver shone round his head
And he had a face of an angel
And they were afraid
Verse 3:
-------
Then the stranger spoke, he said, "Do not fear
I come from a planet a long way from here
And I bring a message for mankind to hear"
Suddenly, the sweetest music
Filled the air And it went
Chorus:
------
Dm Am
La-la-la-la, la-la-la la-la-la
Bb Dm
La-la-la-la la-la-la
F C Bb C
La-la-la-la, la-la-la la-la-la
Dm Am
La-la-la-la, la-la-la la-la-la
Bb Dm
La-la-la-la la-la-la
F C Bb '
Peace and a goodwill to all men
C Dm
And love for the child
Dm Am
La-la-la-la, la-la-la la-la-la
Bb Dm
La-la-la-la la-la-la
F C Bb C
La-la-la-la, la-la-la la-la-la
Dm Am
La-la-la-la, la-la-la la-la-la
Bb Dm
La-la-la-la la-la-la
F C Bb ' C Dm
Oh-oh-oh
Verse 4:
-------
This lovely music went trembling through the ground
And many were wakened on hearing that sound
And travelers on the road, the village they found
By the light of that ship in the sky
Which shone all around
Verse 5:
-------
And just before dawn, at the paling of the sky
The stranger returned and said, "Now I must fly
When two thousand years of your time has gone by
This song will begin once again
To a baby's cry"
Chorus:
------
And it went
La la-la-la, la-la-la la-la-la
La-la-la-la la-la-la
La la-la-la, la-la-la la-la-la
This song will begin once again
To a baby's cry
And it goes
La-la-la-la, la-la-la la-la-la
La-la-la-la la-la-la (oh-oh-oh-oh)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la la-la-la
Peace and goodwill to all men
And love for the child
Verse/Outro:
-----------
Oh, the whole world is waiting
Waiting to hear the song again
There are thousands standing on the edge of the world
And a star is moving somewhere
The time is nearly here
This song will begin once again
To a baby's cry

De Burgh, who had just signed his first recording contract with A&M Records, was broke and "staying at a friend's flat" when he read Chariots of the Gods? by Erich von Däniken. The book made him think "what if the star of Bethlehem was a space craft and what if there is a benevolent being or entity in the universe keeping an eye on the world and our foolish things that we do to each other?" A fan of Irish poet William Butler Yeats, whose work "The Second Coming" avers that every 2,000 years or so there would be a major cataclysmic event happening, de Burgh saw the birth of Christ as "such an event and then 2,000 years later there would be a similar" one.

If you miss the train I'm on,

Not a shirt on my back,
not a penny to my name.
Lord, I can't go back home this-a way
This-a way, this-a way,
this-a way, this-a way,
Lord, I can't go back home this-a way
If you miss the train I'm on,
you will know that I am gone,
you can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
A hundred miles, a hundred miles,
a hundred miles, a hundred miles,
you can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
