       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

F5 - C5 - G5 - A5 2x
