[A]
[D]
Look [Am] out at any [Em] window, any morning, [C]
any evening, any [G] day.
[D] Maybe the [A]
[Am] sun is shining, [Em] birds are winging,
[G] or rain is falling [A] from a heavy sky.
[D] What do [G] you want me to do, [Am] to do for you, [Em] to see [D] you?
[C] For this is [D] all a dream we dream, [Am] one afternoon [G] on a double.
[F#] [D] Walk out of [Am] any [Em] doorway, feel your way, [C] feel your way like the day [G] before.
[D]
Maybe [Am] you'll find direction [Em] around some corner [G] where it's still waiting to [A] meet you.
[D]
What do you, [G] what did you do, [Am] to watch for you [Em] while you're [D] sleeping?
[Am] Then please don't be [C]
surprised when [G] you find me [D] dreaming too.

[D] Look [Am] into any [Em] eyes, you'll find that [C] you can see clear to another [G]
day.
[D] Never been [Am] seen before, but [Em] through other eyes, [G] oh another day is worth [A] going home.
[D] What do you [G] want me to do, [Am] to do for you, [Em] to see [D] you through?
[C] It's all a dream we [Em] dream, [D] one afternoon [G] on a double.
[D] Walk [Am] in the splintered sunlight, [Em] inch your way through [C] dead dreams to [G] another land.
[C] [D] Maybe [Am] you're tired and broken, [Em] your tongue is twisted [G] with words half spoken [A] and thoughts unclear.
[D] What do you [G] want me to do, [Am] to do for you, [Em]
to [D] see you through?
[Am] A box of [C] rain will ease the [G] pain and love to see [D] you through.
Just [G] a box of [Am] rain, wind [Em] and water.
[C] Believe it if you [A] need it, if you [D] don't just pass it on.
[G]
Sun and shower, [Am] wind [Em] and rain.
[G] In and out [D] the window like [Em] a moth [A] before a flame.
[D] And it's just a [Em] box of rain, I don't [G] know who put it [D] there.
Believe it if [Bm] you need it, [G] or leave it if [A] you dare.
And [D]
it's just a box [Em] of rain, or [G] a ribbon for your [D] hair.
Such a [Em] long, long time to be gone, and a [G] short time to [D] be there.
