Eb  Ab  Eb  Fm  Eb

[Verse]
                    Fm     Bb
I use to sit in the shade
      Ab        Eb
Of an old cedar tree
                     Fm    Bb
And I'd dream of the days
             Ab          Eb
What they're holdin' for me

[Chorus]
    Ab               Bb
But all those should know
    Eb          Cm   Eb
Who gaze at the sky
                       Fm  Db  Bb
It's for those who are wise.....
     Ab            Eb
Only those who are wise

[Verse]
                         Fm    Bb
And the west winds would blow
          Ab         Eb
They'd be singing to me
                            Fm  Db   Bb
They'd say, "Look, you, out yonder
        Ab             Eb
just as far as you can see"

[Chorus]
    Ab               Bb
But all those should know
    Eb          Cm    Eb
Who gaze at the sky
                       Fm  Db  Bb
It's for those who are wise.....
     Ab            Eb
Only those who are wise

[Instrumental]
Eb  Ab  Eb  Fm  Eb

[Verse]
                         Fm    Bb
And the years went their way
       Ab              Eb
As the good years will go
                     Fm   Bb
But my dreams linger on
       Ab          Eb
In the hills of my home

[Chorus]
    Ab               Bb
And young men should know
    Eb          Cm    Eb
Who gaze at the sky
                  Fm  Db  Bb
It is you who are wise.....
     Ab          Eb
Only you who are wise

[Outro]
                    Fm      Bb
I use to sit in the shade
      Ab        Eb
Of an old cedar tree
