Verse:
   Am                  G
As I looked out on the April rain
     Am       G/B    Em
Come down the valley streaming
  Dm                 Am

Am      C         D      Em

                G
I come over the Sharon Hills
    Am       G/B     Em
The mountain stone a-shining
    Dm                Am
And all the world was wild with rain

And the mountain grass a-greening

                        G
There's days I sing and days I don't
    Am     G/B    Em
And days I let go by

    F               Em
And see the kestrel fly-o

Am      C       D       Em
One for winter, two for spring
Am                    G

Am      C         D      Em
All you need is a little sign

                         G
There's days I dance and days I don't

And days I watch the rain
    Dm                Am
And days the littlest leaf will shine
        F                  Em
And the smallest bird will sing

As I come over the hills of home

And the world was full of sky-o
