[D] [E] [F#] I [B] am sitting in the morning at the [D] diner on the corner.
I [B] am waiting at the counter for [C#] the man [F#] to pour the coffee.
And [B] he fills it only halfway.
And before [D] I even argue, he [B] is looking out the window at [C#] [F#m] somebody coming [Bm] in.
It is always nice to see you, says [C#m] the man behind [D] the counter to [B] the woman who has come in.
She [C#m] is [F#m] shaking her umbrella.
And [Bm] I look the [B] other way as they are [D] kissing their hellos and I'm [Bm] pretending not [B] to see them.
And [C#m] instead [F#m] I pour the milk.

[D] I open the paper, read [F#m] the story of the man who had died while he was drinking.
[A] There was no one I had heard of.
[F#m] And I am running to the horse, looking for the bunnies.
But I am feeling someone watching [F#] me.
And so I [F#m] raise my head.
There [D] is a man.
And I am looking at the man on the other side of the [F#m] gate.
And so does she see me?
No, [D] she does not really see me.
[E] She seeks [F#m] her own reflection.
[D] And I am trying not to notice that she is [F#m] touching her skirt.
And while [D] she is straightening her stocking, [E] her [F#m] hair has gotten wet.
