[Verse]
DI saw a friend that I once knew at a funeralG  
BmHe took the time out to be seeGn
DHis eyes kept glancing to the hour hand on the gold watcGh
BmThat he'd been given by a magazinGe
DHe didn't cry when the priest gave the sermonG  
BmJust pulled up the woollen collar on his fleeceG  
DCrossed his arms gave a sigh and checked the time againG  
BmAs he sat inches from the wife of the deceasedG  
[Chorus]
He catches rEmaindrops from his window, it reminds him of Ghow we fDall
From the sEmtars back to our cities where we've never Gfelt so smDall
EmRaindrops from his window, making puddles Gin his haDnds
He sees how qEmuick the water's rising as another Graindrop lDands
[Bridge]

[Verse]
EmHe took a chDauffeur-driven car back to his Bmhotel
EmPassing through the city sDtreets where he was bBmorn

EmThey all look rundowDn and so forlornBm"
EmHe took a sBmhower in the bathroom of his Dpenthouse
EmPut the 'do not dBmisturb' on his dDoor
EmWhen the maid cBmame in the morningD  
EmShe found him shiveBmring on the bedroom fDloor

That he'd been given by a magazine

He didn't cry when the priest gave the sermon

Just pulled up the woollen collar on his fleece

Crossed his arms gave a sigh and checked the time again

As he sat inches from the wife of the deceased

[Chorus]

Em G D

He catches raindrops from his window, it reminds him of how we fall

Em G D

From the stars back to our cities where we've never felt so small

Raindrops from his window, making puddles in his hands

He sees how quick the water's rising as another raindrop lands

He took a chauffeur-driven car back to his hotel

They all look rundown and so forlorn"

Put the 'do not disturb' on his door

When the maid came in the morning

She found him shivering on the bedroom floor
