Paul Simon - Kathy's Song

Originally in G tuned down to F#, I play in G

Intro

GGGC/Gx4

GI hear the C/Gdrizzle of the Grain

AmLike a Am/GmemoCry iG/Bt Bm/F#falls

GSoft and Bm/F#warm contGinuCing

AmTapping Asus2/Gon my Droof and Gwalls

GC/Gx4

GAnd from the C/Gshelter of my Gmind

AmThrough the Am/Gwindow Cof mG/By Bm/F#eyes

I Ggaze beBm/F#yond the Grain-drenched Cstreets

Not a typo, this line is shorter than it is in all the other verses, and the vi/5 is gone

To EAmngland, Dwhere my hGeart lies

GC/Gx4

D11D11

GC/Gx4

GMy mind’s disC/Gtracted and diffuGsed

AmMy thoughts are mAm/Gany Cmiles G/BaBm/F#way

They lGie with Bm/F#you when Gyou’re aCsleep

And kAmiss you Asus2/Gwhen you Dstart your Gday

GC/Gx4

And a sGong I was C/Gwriting is left unGdone

AmI don’t know Am/Gwhy I Cspend mG/By Bm/F#time

GWriting Bm/F#songs I Gcan’t beClieve

With wAmords that Asus2/Gtear and Dstrain to Grhyme

GC/Gx4

D11D11

GC/Gx4

GAnd so you C/Gsee, I have come to Gdoubt

AmAll that Am/GI once Cheld aG/Bs Bm/F#true

GI stand aBm/F#lone withGout beCliefs

The oAmnly Asus2/Gtruth I Dknow is Gyou

GC/Gx4

GAnd as I C/Gwatch the drops of Grain

AmWeave their Am/Gweary Cpaths aG/Bnd Bm/F#die

I Gknow that Bm/F#I am Glike the Crain

AmThere but fAsus2/Gor the grace of Dyou go GI

GC/Gx4
