Wee Small Hours (Procol Harum)

		Intro:  
 
C  
/ [drum fill]  
 
Verse 1:  
 
C Fm  
In the wee small hours of sixpence  
C Fm  
And the lighted chandelier  
Dm Em F C  
Stands a rusty old retainer  
Abdim [N.C.] C/G  
Whose old eyes are filled with tears  
 
For his master, good Sir Gallant  
Who is now off to the wars  
And although his eyes are crying  
We know grief is not the cause  
 
Chorus 1:  
 
F F#dim C  
And if grief is not the reason  
F F#dim C  
He must be of sterner stuff  
F Am/E Dm  
And his sword, though old and rusty  
G /F /E /D  
Must be blunt as sharp enough  
 
Verse 2:  
 
In the wee small hours of sixpence  
And the broken windowpane  
Stand the remnants of the evening  
Who are waiting all in vain  
 
For the crowing of the cockroach  
Sure as morning is not night  
But the air is filled with silence  
And the day bright is not light  
 
Chorus 2:  
 
But still darkness is no reason  
We are men of sterner stuff  
And our swords, though old and rusty  
Still are blunt as sharp enough

Verse 3:  
 
D Gm  
In the wee small hours of sixpence  
D Gm  
And the hat stand in the hall  
Em F#m G D  
Waiting only for the morning  
Bbdim [N.C.] D/A  
Shadows flitting 'cross the wall  
 
And perhaps that old retainer  
Who now giving of his all  
May have once been just as we are  
And now has no face at all  
 
Chorus 3:  
 
G G#dim D  
But still grief was not the reason  
G G#dim D  
He was made of sterner stuff  
G Bm/F# Em  
And his sword, though old and rusty  
A /G /F# /E  
Still was blunt as sharp enough
