Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][A][Em][A]
[Em]
I stepped out of [A]the St. James

[Verse 1]
[Em]
hotel
And I left you behind curled up like a child
[Am]A ch[Bm]ange [Em]is gon na [Bm]come
[B]And as the[Em] door whispered shut
I walked on down the high-windowed hall
hall
You lay sleeping [A]on the

[Verse 2]
[Em]unmade bed
The weatherman on the television
in the St. James [A]hotel

[Verse 3]
[Bm]Said that the [Em]rains are gonna [B]come
[Em]And I stepped out on the streets
All sparkling clean with the
early morning [C]dew

[Verse 4]
Maybe it was you or [D]maybe it was me?
You [Am]came on like a punch in [C]the [Em]heart[C]
Lying there with [D]the light on your hair
Like a [B]Jesus of the moon
A Jesus of the planets and the [Em]stars

[Verse 5]
[Em]
Well, I kept thinking about what
the weatherman said
And if the voices of the living
can be heard by the dead
[A]Well, [Bm]the day is gonna[Em] come
[Bm]when we find out[Em]
And in some kind of way I take
a little comfort from that
Now and then

[Verse 6]
'Cause people often [Em]talk about
being scared of change
But for [A]me I'm [Em]more afraid
of thing[A]s stay[Bm]ing the same
[Em]'Cause the g[B]ame is never won[Em]
By standing in any one place
For too [C]long

[Verse 7]
Maybe it was you or [D]maybe
it was me?
But there was [C]a chord in [Am]you
[C]that I could not [Em]find to strike
[C]You lying there with all
the [D]light in your hair
Like a [B]Jesus of the moon
A Jesus of the planets [Em]and the

[Interlude 1]
stars
[Em][A][Bm][Em]
[B][Bm][Em]

[Verse 8]
I see the many girls [Em]walking
down the empty streets
Maybe once or twice one of them
smiles [B]at me
You can't [Em]blame any
[Bm]one for saying h[Em]ello
I say hey
I say hello, I say [C]hello

[Verse 9]
Will it be me [D]or will it be you?
[C]One must stay and one depart
[Em]You [C]lying there in
the St. [D]James hotel bed
Like [B]a Jesus of the moon
A Jesus of [Em]the planets and the stars

[Verse 10]
[Em]I say hello, hello, hello
