  			   Gm 
In Germany before the war 
      A/C#  
There was a man who owned a store 
   Cm                              Gm   
In nineteen hundred thirty-four in Dusseldorf 

    Gm 
And every night at five-o-nine 
     A/C# 
He'd cross the park down to the rhine 
         Cm                    Gm  
And he'd sit there by the shore 

Chorus: 
    Gm                           Cm    
I'm looking at the river but I'm thinking of the sea 
D                    D# 
Thinking of the sea, Thinking of the sea 
    Gm                           Cm                  D   D# 
I'm looking at the river but I'm thinking of the sea 

A little girl has lost her way 
With hair of gold and eyes of gray 
Reflected in his glasses As he watches her 

A little girl has lost her way 
With hair of gold and eyes of gray 

Chorus 

We lie beneath the autumn sky 
My little golden girl and I 
And she lies very still
