D9
Mountain eyes, peeping out if his head (—ah)
Sipping tea, composing in his bed (—ah)
                                           C
A hundred hands working on a musical of old
   C        Am            C        Am        C
Debussy and Mendelssohn Handel and Dvorak of old


C                                                       Am
Child star, protegee of Mister Gormez who said you'd go far
C                                                 Am
Child star, they do not see just what a precious gem you'd be

(slightly slower)
D
Sad to see them watching you fade into in (—ah) invisibilty


D9
Twelve years old, your elvish fingers kiss your 
Beethoven hair the awesome people stare
                                                         C
They're un—aware of all the angel sounds they see and hear

  C         Am            C        Am          C
Debussy and Mendelssohn Handel and Dvorak they hear

C                                                     Am
Child star, protegee of Mister Gomez who said you'd go far
C                                                            Am
Child star, and when you died at just thirteen they wept and wrung their hair

(slightly slower)
D
Sad to see them mourning you and you are there within the flowers and the trees
C                                                     Am
Child star, protegee of Mister Gomez who said you'd go far
