{c:INTRO: (three times)} [Cmaj7] [D] [Em]
[Am7] [D7] {c:VERSE 1:} On a [Cmaj7]morning from a [Hm]Bogart mo[Em]vie in a [Cmaj7]country where they [Hm]turned back tim[Em]e you go [Cmaj7]strolling through the c[Hm]rowd like [Em] Peter Lorre contempl[Am7]ating a crime. [D7] She comes [Cmaj7]out of the s[Hm]un in a silk[Em] dress running like a [H]water color in the [C]rain. Don't bother [H]asking for[Em] explanations. She'll just [Am7]tell you that she came [D] in the Year of the Cat.
{c:INSTRUMENTAL: (repeat INTRO chords)}
{c:VERSE 2:} She [Cmaj7]doesn't give you [Hm]time for ques[Em]tions as she [Cmaj7]locks up you [Hm]arm in hers.[Em] And you [Cmaj7]follow 'til your [Hm]sense of [Em] which direction com[Am7]pletely disappears. [D7] By the [Cmaj7]blue-tiled w[Hm]alls near the [Em]market stalls there's a [H]hidden door she leads you [C]to. "These days," she [H]says, "I[Em] feel my life just like a [Am7]river running through [D] the Year of the Cat."
{c:INSTRUMENTAL: (repeat INTRO chords)}
{c:BRIDGE: (lead-in: D instead of D7)} {np} Well she [H]looks at you so co[C]oly and her [G]eyes shine like the [D]moon in the sea. She comes in [H]incense and pathch[C]ouli so you [G]take her to [F]find what's [C/E]Waiting inside [D] the Year of the Cat.
{c:INSTRUMENTAL: (repeat INTRO chords a few times) }
{c:VERSE 3:} Well [Cmaj7]morning comes and[Hm] you're still with[Em] her and the [Cmaj7]bus and the tou[Hm]rists are [Em]gone. And you've t[Cmaj7]hrown away your ch[Hm]oice and [Em] lost your ticket so you [Am7]have to stay on. [D7] But the d[Cmaj7]rumbeat strain[Hm]s of the night [Em] remain in the [H]rhythm of the newborn [C]day. You know somet[H]ime you're[Em] bound to leave her but for [Am7]now you're gonna stay [D] in the Year of the Cat.
{c:INSTRUMENTAL: (repeat INTRO chords and fade)}
