[Verse 1]
D             C            G
The curtain rises on the scene,
D             C            G
With someone chanting to be free
D             C            G
The play unfolds before my eyes,
D             C            G
There stands the actor who is me

[Verse 2]
D             C            G
The sleeping hours take us far,
D                C             G
Through traffic, telephones and fear
D              C               G
Put out your problems with the cat,
D         C             G
Escape until a bell you hear

[Chorus]
     Am
Our reasons are the same,
             G
But there's no one we can blame
              F
For there's nowhere we need go,
           E                           Am
When the only truth we know comes so easily

       C           G              Am
The sound I have heard in your hello,
Em       F                 Em
Oh darling, you're almost part of me,
         F                   Em
Oh darling, you're all I'll ever see
F Fm C
Ah...

[Verse 3]
D           C           G
It's such a rainy afternoon,
D           C         G
No point in going anywhere
D                  C              G
These sounds just drift across my room,
D            C               G
I wish this feeling I could share

[Verse 4]
D            C         G
It's such a rainy afternoon,
D            C                 G
She sits and gazes from her window
D             C              G
Her mind tries to recall his face,
D           C                G
The feeling deep inside her grows

[Chorus]
    Am
Our reasons are the same,
              G
But there's no one we can blame
               F
For there's nowhere we need go,
           E                           Am
When the only truth we know comes so easily

       C           G              Am
The sound I have heard in your hello,
Em       F                 Em
Oh darling, you're almost part of me,
         F                   Em
Oh darling, you're all I'll ever see
F Fm C
Ah...
