kathy s song chords
paul simon

G C G
i hear the drizzle of the rain
Am Em C D7
like a memory it falls
G Bm G C
soft and warm continuing
Am Em D G C G
tapping on my roof and walls

G C G
and from the shelter of my mind
Am Em C D7
through the window of my eyes
G Bm G C
i gaze beyond the rain drenched streets
Am Em D G C G
to england where my heart lies

G C G
my mind’s distracted and diffused
Am Em C D7
my thoughts are many miles away
G Bm G C
they lie with you when you’re asleep
Am Em D G C G
and kiss you when you start your day

G C G
and a song i was writing is left undone
Am Em C D7
i don’t know why i spent the time
G Bm G C
writing song i can’t believe
Am Em D G C G
with words that tear and strain to rhyme

G C G
and so you see i have come to doubt
Am Em C D7
all that i once held as true
G Bm G C
i stand alone without beliefs
Am Em D G C G
the only truth i know is you

G C G
and as i watch the drops of rain
Am Em C D7
weave their weary paths and die
G Bm G C
i know that i Am like the rain
Am Em D G C G
there but for the grace of you go i
