Verse: 

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
