Spring And Fall To A Young Child chords by Natalie Merchant

Chords with lyrics

C majorC    D MajorD
Margaret, are you grieving
G+G       C majorC        E minorEm
Over golden grove unleaving?  By and by
C majorC          D MajorD
Leaves, like the things of man, you
G+G             C majorC         E minorEm
With your fresh thoughts care for, can you?
C majorC      D MajorD
Ah! as the heart grows older
G+G            C majorC
It will come to such sights colder
E minorEm        D MajorD      C majorC
By and by, nor spare a sigh, by and by
C majorC         D MajorD        G+G
Though worlds of wanwood leafmeal lie;
          C majorC      E minorEm
And yet you will weep and know why.
     D MajorD
Now no matter, child, the name:
  C majorC                         E minorEm
Sorrows' springs are all the same. They're all the same.
C majorC        D MajorD        G+G
Nor mouth had, no nor mind, expressed
       C majorC        E minorEm
What heart heard of, ghost guessed:
C majorC         D MajorD
It is the blight man was born for,
G+G        C majorC          E minorEm
It is Margaret that you mourn for.
