[D] [C] On a morning [Bm] from a forgot [Em] movie In a country where [Bm] they turn [Em] back time
You [C] go strolling through [Bm] the [Em] crowd like Pete Dillard [Am] contemplating a crime
[D] She [C] comes out of [Bm] the sun [Em] in a silk dress running [B] like a watercolour [C] in the rain
Don't [B] bother [Em] asking for explanations, she'll [Am] just tell you that she [D] came in the [C] year of the cat

[C] And you follow [Bm] to your [Em] sense of which direction [Am] completely [D] disappears
By [C] the blue tile [Bm] [Em] walls near the market [Am] stalls of [B] the hidden door she [C] leads you to
These [B] days I [Em]
feel my life just [Am] like a river running [D] through the year [C] of the [D] cat

[D]
But [C] the drumbeat [G] strains [E] of the night remain [B] and the rhythm of the new [C] born day
