When the quiet evening comes and the village

softly lies, twinkling in the shadow of the

I'll be gone.

When the fisher folds his net, makes his craft
Bb majorBb Eb MajorEb

When he thinks of his table set, his children at

the door, as he plods along the shore..I'll be gone.

Eb MajorEb F minorFm
When the merchant draws his shade, counts the day s
Bb majorBb Eb MajorEb
receipts, and smiles, recalling bits of idle gossip.

Eb MajorEb
endlessly..I'll be gone.
