D G I saw a friend that I once knew at a funeral Bm G He took the time out to be seen D G His eyes kept glancing to the hour hand on the gold watch Bm G That he'd been given by a magazine D G He didn't cry when the priest gave the sermon Bm G Just pulled up the woollen collar on his fleece D G Crossed his arms gave a sigh and checked the time again Bm G As he sat inches from the wife of the deceased Em G D He catches raindrops from his window, it reminds him of how we fall Em G D From the stars back to our cities where we've never felt so small Em G D Raindrops from his window, making puddles in his hands Em G D He sees how quick the water's rising as another raindrop lands Em Bm D D 2x Em D Bm He took a chauffeur-driven car back to his hotel Em D Bm Passing through the city streets where he was born Em D Bm He said, "Driver, what's happened to these buildings?
