         Cmaj7          Bm     Em

    On a morning from a Bogart movie

  

         Cmaj7              Bm          Em

    In a country where they turned back time

  

           Cmaj7                 Bm        Em

    You go strolling through the crowd like

  

                      Am7              D

    Peter Lorre contemplating a crime

  

              Cmaj7       Bm      Em

    She comes out of the sun in a silk dress

  

                   B                   C

    Running like a water colour in the rain

  

                 B         Em

    Don't bother asking for explanations

  

                Am7                    D

    She'll just tell you that she came 

  

                          Cmaj7 D6 Em etc (as intro)

    In the Year of the Cat. 

  

  

        Cmaj7            Bm       Em

    She doesn't give you time for questions

  

           Cmaj7         Bm     Em

    As she locks up your arm in hers

  

            Cmaj7            Bm       Em

    And you follow 'til your sense of

  

                         Am7               D

    Which direction completely disappears

  

           Cmaj7      Bm             Em

    By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls

  

              B                         C

    There's a hidden door she leads you to

  

                      B        Em         

    "These days," she says, "I feel my life just

  

           Am7                   D

    Like a river running through

     

                          Cmaj7 D6 Em etc 

    The Year of the Cat."

  

  

  

             B                  C

    Well she looks at you so cooly

  

            G                   D

    And her eyes shine like the moon in the sea

  

                 B                 C

    She comes in incense and pathchouli

  

           G           F6

    So you take her to find what's 

  

    C/E             D                     Cmaj7 D6 Em etc 

    Waiting inside    the Year of the Cat.

    Well morning comes and you're still with her

  

            Cmaj7       Bm        Em

    And the bus and the tourists are gone

  

               Cmaj7            Bm        Em

    And you've thrown away your choice and

  

                            Am7              D

    Lost your ticket so you have to stay on

  

             Cmaj7       Bm         Em

    But the drumbeat strains of the night remain

  

           B                     C

    In the rhythm of the newborn day

  

                  B         Em        

    You know sometime you're bound to leave her

  

            Am7                   D

    But for now you're gonna stay
