[Intro]
G D
G D Am I took this walk to ease my mind C To find out what's gnawing at me G Wouldn't think to look at me Am Em7 C that I've spent a lot of time in education G It all seems so long ago Am Em7 C I'm a thinker, not a talker
I've no-one to talk to, anyway
G F I can't see the road C G for the rain in my eyes F C G Ahhh ... G D I live above the grocers store, Am C owned by an Austrian G He often calls me down to eat Am C And he jokes about his broken English G tries to be a friend to me Am Em7 C But for all my years of reading conversation,
I stand without a word to say
G F I can't see the bridge C G for the rain in my eyes F C G Ahhh...
(Key Change)
A C#m Bm And the world is full of life D Full of folk who don't know me A And they walk in twos or threes or more Bm F#m7 D While the light that shines above the grocer's store A Investigates my face so rudely Bm F#m7 D And my essays lying scattered on the floor
Fulfill their needs just by being there
A G And my hands shake, my head hurts, D A my voice sticks inside my throat A G I'm invisible and dumb, D A And no-one will recall me A G And I can't see the water D Fmaj7 G A for the tears in my eyes
