       Bb               C
It's a Raymond Chandler evening,

       Bb               C
At the end of someone's day,

        Bb             C
And I'm standing in my pocket,

        Bb     C       F
And I'm slowly turning grey.

  Bb              C
I remember what I told you,

    Bb               C
But I can't remember why,

        Bb                C
And the yellow leaves are falling

     Bb     C        F
In a spiral from the sky.

          Dm   Bb     C
There's a body on the railings

       Dm     Bb   C
That I can't identify,

        G           Bb
And I'd like to reassure you, but

    F                C
I'm not that kind of guy.

       Bb               C
It's a Raymond Chandler Evening,

        Bb                C
And the pavements are all wet,

        Bb              C
And I'm lurking in the shadows

          Bb     C        F
'Cause it hasn't happened yet.
