[Intro]
A D
[Verse]
Am
Look out of any window
Em C G D
Any morning, any evening, any day
Am
Maybe the sun is shining
Em G A D
Birds are winging, no rain is falling from a heavy sky
[Chorus]
G
What do you want me to do
Am Em D
To do for you to see you through?
C D
For this is all a dream we dreamed
Am G D
One afternoon, long ago
[Verse]
Am
Walk out of any doorway
Em C G D
Feel your way, feel your way like the day before
Am
Maybe you'll find direction
Em G A D
Around some corner, where it's been waiting to meet you
[Chorus]
G
What do you want me to do
Am Em D
To watch for you while you're sleeping?
Am C
Then please don't be surprised
G D
When you find me dreaming too
[Instrumental]
G Am Em C A D
G Am Em G D Em A D
[Verse]
Am
Walk into splintered sunlight
Em C G D
Inch your way through dead dreams to another land
Am
Maybe you're tired and broken
Em G A D
Your tongue is twisted with the words half spoken and the thoughts unclear
[Chorus]
G
What do you want me to do
Am Em D
To do for you, to see you through
Am C
A box of rain will ease the pain
G D G
And love will see you through
[Bridge]
Am Em
Just a box of rain, wind and water
C A7
Believe in it if you need it
D G
If you don't just pass it on
Am Em
Sun and shower, wind and rain
C D
In and out the window
Em A
Like a moth before the flame
D Em
And it's just a box of rain
G D
I don't know who put it there
Bm
Believe it if you need it
G A
Or leave it if you dare
D Em
And it's just a box of rain
G D
Or a ribbon for your hair
Em
Such a long, long time to be gone
G D
And a short time to be there
A D
