I put a (C)dollar in his (F)empty hat, then we (C)sat on a wall, scared off an (F)old stray cat

The wind was (C)singing and (F)sky was turning black
Down in No-(C)gales (G)
And in your (F)hand, you were holding a flower you found
On the side of the road, you were twirling it ‘round and a-(C)round
And (G)I, I was dreaming of you, seeing you smiling and laughing and
Then the (F)rain came down, (C)hmm ---

And the (C)tall girl talking in the long blue dress on her (F)cell phone
Down in No-(C)gales (G)
And in your (F)hand, you were holding a flower you found
On the side of the road, you were twirling it ‘round and a-(C)round

Seeing you smiling and laughing and then the (F)rain came down
The (C)rain came down, ah the (F)rain came down a-(C)gain
