WATERMARK
(Composer: Jimmy Webb)
(Art Garfunkel Version from same titled Album)
NB!!
The Chords as written into the lyrics, might not fit exact on the beat.
So you'll benefit from listen to the song, and play along With it.
The beat is in 2/4- measure, as i'd interped it
NOte that "Salvation Army" fingerings won't do!
Use fingerings in positions V - IX ; and you're on!
Good Luck; & ENJOY!

How secretly and silently my sorrow disappears
You can't see it with your eyes or hear it with your ears
It's like a Watermark that's never there and never really gone
I keep looking through old varnish
At my late lover's body
Caught on ancient canvas
And decaying...disappearing
Even as I sing this song
Even as I sing this song
Even as I sing this song
