Kathys Song - Paul Simon
Tuning: , E A D G B E
I hear the dr
izzle of the r
ain
Like a memor

Soft and warm
continu - ing
Tapping on my
roof and wall
s
And from the
shelter of my
mind
Through the w
indow of my
eyes
I gaze bey-on
d the rain dre

To England wh

My mind's dis
tracted and di
f-fused
My thoughts a
re many mile
s a-way
They lie with
you when you'
re asleep
And kiss you
when you start
your day
And the song
I was writing
is left un-don

I don't know
why I spent m
y time
Writing songs
I can't belie
ve
With words th

train to rhyme
And so you se
e I have come
to doubt
All that I on
ce knew as tru
e
I stand a-lon
#
e without beli
efs
The only trut
h I know is yo
u
And as I watc
h the drops of
rain
weave their w
eary paths an
d die
I know that I
/
am like the
rain
There but for
the grace of y
ou go I
