Lyrics

You took your coat

off,

and stood in the (F)rain;

you’re al ways (C)cra zy like that.

And I watched from my (Bb)win dow.

I al ways felt I was (F)out side

look ing (C)in on you.

You’re al ways the mys ter i ous one with dark eyes and care less hair.

You were

fash ion a bly sen si tive, but too (C)cool

to care.

You stood in my door way

with noth ing to (F)say

be sides some (C)com ment on the weath er.

In case you failed to no tice, in (Bb)case you failed to see,

(F)this is my heart bleed ing be fore you; (C)this is me down on my knees.

(Bb)These

fool ish (C)games

are (F)tear

ing me a (Dm)part.

And (Bb)your

thought less (C)words

are (F)break

(C)ing my (Bb)heart.

You’re break ing my (Dm)heart.

You were al ways bril liant in the (Bb)morn ing;

smok ing your cig ar ettes

and (C)talk ing o ver cof fee.

Your phi los o phies on art, bar oque moved you, you loved Mo zart.

And you’d (F)speak of your loved ones

as I (C)clum si ly strum’d my gui tar.

(Gm)’Scuse me,

think I’ve mis tak en you for some bod y else.

Some bod y who gave a damn.

(C)Some bod y more like my self.

You took

your (Bb)coat off,

and stood in the (F)rain;

you’re al ways (C)cra zy like that.
