Children laughed and played and 
  D               A
didn´t know his name
A                           D    
They could tell when he was 
           E
coming just the same
A       D             A  
Walking slow with old John´s 
             F#m         E
crippled wife by his side
         D                E
Then she sighed, then she died

Magic words from him would charm 
some children´s ears
But they laughed at him when he hid 
behind his tears
All in vain was no game for he'd 
lost an old friend
in the end, in the end
