[INTRO] C D Em 3x
Am D
[Verse]
C Bm Em
On a morning from a Bogart movie
C Bm Em
in a country where they turned back time
C Bm Em
you go strolling through the crowd like
Am D
Peter Lorre contemplating a crime.
C Bm Em
She comes out of the sun in a silk dress
B C
running like a water color in the rain.
B Em
Don't bother asking for explanations.
Am D
She'll just tell you that she came
in the Year of the Cat.

C Bm Em
She doesn't give you time for questions
C Bm Em
as she locks up you arm in hers.
C Bm Em
And you follow 'til your sense of
Am D
which direction completely disappears.
C Bm Em
By the blue-tiled walls near the market stalls
B C
there's a hidden door she leads you to.
B Em
"These days," she says, "I feel my life just
Am D
like a river running through
the Year of the Cat."

B C
Well she looks at you so cooly
G D
and her eyes shine like the moon
