September se-e-ven-teen

4   4   -6  6  -4    -4   -4    -4     4

For a girl I know it's Mother's Day

  4    -5    -5     6   -6  6    4

Her son has gone a-lee-ee

  4       5        5     -4   4    -4 

And that's where he will stay


 -6      6   6    5   -4   4     5

Wind on the we-ath-er-vane

 -6    6    -4     -4    -4  -4     4

Tearing blue eyes sailor-mean

  4   -5   -5     6   -6  6  -6    4   4   4

As Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain

-4   -4 -4  -4   5    4  -4      4

For a boy in Fidd-le-r's Green


His tiny knotted heart

Well, I guess it never worked too good

The timber tore apart

And the water gorged the wood


You can hear her whispered prayer

For men at masts that always lean

The same wind that moves her hair

Moves a boy through Fiddler's Green


   6          6    5         -4       -4  5  4

Ooooh nothing's changed anyway

   6          6    5         -4       -4  5   4

Ooooh nothing's changed anyway

   5        5 4  -4    5  4

Ooooh anytime today


He doesn't know a soul

There's nowhere that he's really been

But he won't travel long alone

No, not in Fiddler's Green


Balloons all filled with rain

As children's eyes turn sleepy-mean

And Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain

For a boy in Fiddler's Green
