C F C
He made the night a little brighter
E7 Am
Wherever he would go
F C D7 G7
The old lamp lighter of long long ago
F C
His snowy hair was so much whiter
E7 Am F C
Beneath the candle glow the old lamp lighter
G7 C
Of long long ago
You'd hear the patter of his feet
As he came toddling down the street
His smile would hide a lonely heart you see
F
If there were sweethearts in the park
He'd pass a lamp and leave it dark
G7
Remembering the days that used to be
C
For he recalled when things were new
He loved someone who loved him too
G7 C
Who walks with him alone in memories
F C
He made the night a little brighter
E7 Am
Wherever he would go
F C G7 C
The old lamp lighter of long long ago
Now if you look up in the sky
You'll understand the reason why
The little stars at night are all aglow
F
He turns them on when night is near
He turns them off when dawn is here
G7
The little man who lived so long ago
F C
He made the night a little brighter
E7 Am
Wherever he would go
F C G7 C
The old lamp lighter of long long ago
