C5 F5
It had something to do with the rain
F5 C5 G5
leeching loamy dirt
C5 F5
and the way the back lane came alive
F5 C5 G5
half moon whispered "go"
F5 G5 C5 F5
for a while I heard you missing steps in the street
F5 G5 C5 F5
and your anger pleading in an uncertain key
F5 C5 F5
singing the sound of you that you found for me
C5 F5
When the winter took the tips of my ears
F(II) C(II) G(II)
found this noisy home
C5 F5
full of pigeons and places to hide
F(II) C(II) G(II)
and when the voices die
C5 F5
I emerged to watched abandoned machines
F(II) C(II) G(II)
waiting for their men
C5 F5
to return, I remember the way
F(II) C(II) G(II)
I would wait for you
F5 G5 C5 F5
to arrive with kibble and a box full of beer
F5 G5 C5 F5
how I'd scratch the empties desperate to hear
F/ // F(II)
you make the sound that you found for me
F(II) ////// C(II) ////// G(II) ////// Am(II) //////
(This is played for the next stanza as well)
After scrapping with the ferals and the tabby
let you brush my matted fur
how I'd knead into your chest while you were sleeping
shallow breathing made me purr
F5 C5 G5 A5
But I can't remember the sound that you found for me
F5 C5 G5 A5
I can't remember the sound that you found for me
F5 C5 G5 A5
I can't remember the sound
