Chords

[Intro] D F#m Bm D G F#m Em D [Verse 1]
D                F#m   Bm    D
Winding down the Drury Lane

  G             Em      D
I fall with the evening rain

D                    F#m        Bm D
My thoughts with the water flow by

G                 Em      D
Like steam rising off the road

G                      F#m7
Passers-by watch their step

F#                         Bm  Fm7
To see that they don't get wet

Em7
And I'll just sit beneath this tree

A7
Let the drops fall all over me

A7                              D
And watch the city lights flick on
[Verse 2]
D                  F#m            Bm    D
The crowds collide just out of my reach

G                       Em              D
The taxi's lights flash up and down the street

D                            F#m
I sit and watch the faces go by

Em7                  A7    D
I don't wonder where to or why

G                                     F#m7
Cause it's me, the rain, my warm dark pain

F#7                          Bm  Fm7
Alone at ease and nowhere at all

Em7
My thoughts just drift on back to you

A7sus4          A7
It seems you're here, so it must be true

A7                              D
We never parted, you never went away
[Chorus]
D                    G      D  G
So I order up another glass

D                    G      D  G
Not to let the moment pass

D       F#m    Bm           D  G
Turning around in love with you

      F#m      Em       D
Oh, I know you loved me too

         A                D
And it's always been this way
[Verse 3]
D                      F#m
Here sitting in my wet café

   Em7                     D
I catch a spark across the way

 D                       F#m
A string of tiny painted bells

Em7            A7      D
Seem to have a tale to tell

G                        F#m
A string of tiny painted bells

   F#7                           Bm     Fm7
On someone that I once knew well

Em
Is all that's left, the rest's not true

A7
I smile, I see it's really you

A7                                 D
The rain will go, and you will too
[Chorus]
D              G             D  G
And I order up another glass

D              G             D  G
Not to let the moment pass

D       F#m    Bm           D  G
Turning around in love with you

       F#m     Em      D
Oh, it got too hard to do

         A                D
And it's always been this way

         A                 D
Yes, it's always been this way
