Am7D7
On a Cmaj7morning from a BmBogart moEmvie
in a Cmaj7country where they Bmturned back timEme
you go Cmaj7strolling through the cBmrowd like Em
Peter Lorre contemplAm7ating a crime. D7
She comes Cmaj7out of the sBmun in a silkEm dress
running like a Bwater color in the Emrain.
CDon't bother aBsking for Emexplanations.
She'll just Am7tell you that she came D
in the Year of the Cat.
INSTRUMENTAL: (repeat INTRO chords)
She Cmaj7doesn't give you Bmtime for quesEmtions
as she Cmaj7locks up you Bmarm in hers.Em
And you Cmaj7follow 'til your Bmsense of Em
which direction comAm7pletely disappears. D7
By the Cmaj7blue-tiled wBmalls near the Emmarket stalls
there's a Bhidden door she leads you Emto.
"TChese days," she sBays, "I feeEml my life just
like a Am7river running through D
the Year of the Cat."
INSTRUMENTAL: (repeat INTRO chords)
Well she Blooks at you so cooCly
and her eGyes shine like the mDoon
in the sea.
She comes in Bincense and pathchCouli
so you Gtake her to Ffind what's
C/Ewaiting inside D D7
the Year of the Cat.
INSTRUMENTAL: (repeat INTRO chords a few times)
acoustic/electric guitar solos, piano, sax, etc. (sweet stuff!)
Well Cmaj7morning comes andBm you're still withEm her
and the Cmaj7bus and the touBmrists are Emgone.
And you've tCmaj7hrown away your chBmoice and Em
lost your ticket so you Am7have to stay on. D7
But the dCmaj7rumbeat strainBms of the night Em
remain in the Brhythm of the newborn Cday.
You know sometBime you'reEm bound to leave her
but for Am7now you're gonna stay D
in the Year of the Cat.
INSTRUMENTAL: (repeat INTRO chords and fade)
piano riffs, sax, etc
