D On a C7Mmorning from a BmBogart moEmvie D
In a C7Mcountry where they Bmturn back time
Em DYou go C7Mstrolling through the Bmcrowd likeEm Peter Lorre
C7MContempAmlating a crime
D She comes C7Mout of the sunBm in a silkEm dress running
Like a B7watercolor in the C7Mrain
Don't bother asB7king forEm explanations
She'll just Amtell you that she came
D In the year of the cat

D She C7Mdoesn't give you timeBm for quesEmtions D
As she C7Mlocks up your Bmarm in hers
Em D And you C7Mfollow till yourBm sense of Emwhich direction C7M
CompAmletely disappears
D By the C7Mblue tiled wallsBm near the Emmarket stalls
There's a hiB7dden door she leads you C7Mto
These days,B7 she says, "I Emfeel my life
Just like a riAmver running through"
D The year of the cat

So you Gtake her, to Ffind what's waiCting inside

D Well C7Mmorning comes and Dyou're still with Emher D
And the C7Mbus and the touDrists are Emgone D
And you've C7Mthrown away yourD choice and Emlost your ticket C7M
So you Amhave to stay on

But for Amnow you're going to stay
