All I know she sang a little while and then flew on

Tell me all that you know and I'll show you snow and rain

If you hear that same sweet song again will you know why

Anyone who sings a tune so sweet is passing by
C     G          D               A                            E7
Laugh in the sunshine, sing, cry in the dark, fly through the night
