       C                          F
It had something to do with the rain
F        C        G
leeching loamy dirt
        C                        F
and the way the back lane came alive
F         C             G
half moon whispered "go"
      F       G                C             F
for a while I heard you missing steps in the street
         F     G              C         F
and your anger pleading in an uncertain key
F                          C             F
singing the sound that you found for me

         C                          F
When the winter took the tips of my ears
F*         C*       G*
found this noisy home
        C                        F
full of pigeons and places to hide
    F*       C*       G*
and when the voices die
   C                           F
I emerged to watch abandoned machines
F*      C*          G*
waiting for their men
     C                     F
to return, I remember the way
F*      C*          G*
I would wait for you
     F         G            C           F
to arrive with kibble and a box full of beer
        F           G       C            F
how I'd scratch the empties desperate to hear
F                           F*
you make the sound that you found for me

F* ////// C* ////// G* ////// Am* //////

F*        C*             G*              Am*
After scrapping with the ferals and the tabby
F*      C*            G*      Am*
let you brush my matted fur
F*      C*              G*                     Am*
how I'd knead into your chest while you were sleeping
F*      C*                G*      Am*
shallow breathing made me purr

F            C            G             Am
But I can't remember the sound that you found for me
F           C           G           Am
I can't remember the sound that you found for me
F           C           G           Am
I can't remember the sound
