I am sitting in the morning at the diner on the corner
man to pour the coffee
even argue he is looking out the window
in
says the man behind the counter
shaking her umbrella
their hellos
I open up the paper

Hide Lyrics Hint
_ _ _ I am sitting in the morning at the diner on the corner
I am waiting at the counter for the man to pour the coffee
And he fills it only halfway
And before I even argue he is looking out the window
At somebody [G] coming in
_ _ It is always nice to see you, says the man behind the counter
To the woman who has come in
[Gm] She is shaking her umbrella
[N] And I look the other way as they are kissing their hellos
And I am pretending not to see them
And instead I pour [G] the milk
_ _ _ I open up the paper
There is a story of an actor who had died while he was drinking
It [N] was no one I had heard of
And I am turning to the horoscope
And looking for the [G#] funnies
When I am feeling someone watching me
And so I raise my [Gm] head
There is a [F#] woman on the outside looking inside
[G] Does she see me?
No, she does not really see me
Cause she sees her own reflection
[N] And I am trying not to notice that she is hitching up her skirt
And while she is straightening her stockings
Her hair has gotten wet
_ _ Oh, this rain, it will continue through [G] the morning
As I am listening to the bells of the cathedral
_ _ [D] I am thinking of your [G] voice
And of the midnight picnic once upon a time
Before the rain began
_ _ _ [N] And I finish up my coffee
And it is time to catch the train _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ Oops!
