  I  see     skies  of  blue              the clouds  of   white   the bright blessed day        the dark   sacred nights

  4 4 4___ 4 4 4______  | 4 4 -3 4__-4 | 4           |

  The    colors   of the rain--bow,  so    pretty in the sky 

  4 | -4-4 -4-4-4___3 -4 | -55 5-4 5___ |  

  Are     also    on  the  faces,    of     people passing by


  5 6 | -6__ -6-6  6___ | 5 6 -6___ -6-6 6

  I  see    friends  shaking  hands      Saying, how       do you do ?
