LISTEN<\/a> –\u00a0 Hurricane Smith aka Norman Smith<\/span><\/p>\n

[A]\u00a0 There was a lampost with [E] faint yellow light.<\/span>
\n[F#m] There was a street in the [C#] still of the night<\/span>
\n[D] There was a girl what a [A] pleasure to know<\/span>
\nThe [D] face of an angel, a [C#] long time [E ] ago.<\/span><\/p>\n

[A] Too many fears in [E] so many ways<\/span>
\n[F#m] Too many tears, but a [C#] few happy days<\/span>
\n[D] Daddy and Tommy and [A] Johnny and Jack<\/span>
\nIf [D] she is still living, I’d [C#] like to go [E ] back<\/span><\/p>\n

To that [A] wonderful Lily, my [E] Lily, my lay<\/span>
\nI would [F#m] give anything just to [C#] see you again
\nThough your [D] hair may be grey, I can [A] truthfully say
\n<\/span>I will [D] still feel the [E] same about [A] you.<\/span><\/p>\n

[A] My Lily, my [E] Lily my lay
\n<\/span>Do you [F#m]\u00a0 still think of me or [C#] remember my name?
\n<\/span>Does the [D] fire still burn, and if [A] I should return,<\/span>
\nWould you [D] still feel the [E] same about [A] me.<\/span><\/p>\n

Break [F#m] [A] [D] [E]<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/span>[F#m] [A] [D] [E]
\n<\/span>[F#m] There by the [A] light you will [D] always be [E] me<\/span><\/p>\n

To that [A] wonderful Lily, my [E] Lily, my lay<\/span>
\nI would [F#m] give anything just to [C#] see you again
\nThough your [D] hair may be grey, I can [A] truthfully say
