Of browns and blues and

meadow greens
Bm

And the world just passed on by his door

He lived but lived alone

old wool hat pulled down
C

Surrounded by the dogs
that were his friends

more than he

a faded yellow light

And play the old

Victrola
Em

And drink his rusty wine
C
And conduct the
Mozart music
G

With his hard and shaken hand
