From The Stars
Verse:
D G
I saw a friend that I once knew at a funeral
Bm G
He took the time out to be seen
D G
His eyes kept glancing to the hour hand on the gold watch
Bm G
That he'd been given by a magazine
D G
He didn't cry when the priest gave the sermon
Bm G
Just pulled up the woollen collar on his fleece
D G
Crossed his arms gave a sigh and checked the time again
Bm G
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
Em G D
Raindrops from his window, making puddles in his hands
Em G D
He sees how quick the water's rising as another raindrop lands
Bridge:
Em Bm D D 2x
Verse:
Em D Bm
He took a chauffeur-driven car back to his hotel
Em D Bm
Passing through the city streets where he was born
Em D Bm
He said, "Driver, what's happened to these buildings?
Em D Bm
They all look rundown and so forlorn"
Em Bm D
He took a shower in the bathroom of his penthouse
Em Bm D
Put the 'do not disturb' on his door
Em Bm D
When the maid came in the morning
Em Bm D
She found him shivering on the bedroom floor
Chorus: 2x
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
Em G D
Raindrops from his window, making puddles in his hands
Em G D
He sees how quick the water's rising as another raindrop lands

I saw a friend that i once knew at a funeral,
He took the time out to be seen.
His eyes kept glancing to the hour hand on the gold watch, that he'd been given by a magazine.
He didn't cry when the priest gave the sermon,
Just pulled up the woolen 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.
He catches raindrops from his window, it reminds him how we fall,
From the stars back to our cities, where we've never felt so small
Rain drops 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,
Passing through the sick streets where he was born
He said "Driver, what's happened to these buildings? They all look run down and so folorn."
(Hit a big D chord here)
He took a shower in the bathroom of his penthouse,
Put the Do not Disturb on his door
When the maid came in the morning
She found him shivering on the bedroom floor

He catches raindrops on his window, it reminds him how we falls,
From the stars back to our cities, where we've never felt so small
Rain drops from his window making puddles in his hands,

He catches raindrops from his window, it reminds him how we fall,
From the stars back to our cities, where we've never felt so small
