Lyrics
Day af ter day,
a (Dm)lone on a hill,
the (C)man with the fool ish grin is keep ing (Dm)per fect ly still.
But no bod y wants to (G)know him, they can (C)see that he’s just a fool.
And (Dm)he nev er gives an (G)an swer, but the (C)fool
(Fm)on the hill
sees the (Fm)sun
go ing (C7)down,
and the (Gm)eyes
in his (Ab)head
see the (D)world
spin ning ’round.
Well on the way,
a (Dm)head in a cloud,
the (C)man of a thou sand voic es talk ing (Dm)per fect ly loud.
But no bod y ev er (G)hears him, or the (C)sound he ap pears to make.
And (Dm)he nev er seems to (G)no tice, but the (C)fool
(Fm)on the hill
sees the (Fm)sun
go ing (C7)down,
and the (Gm)eyes
in his (Ab)head
see the (D)world
spin ning ’round.
