Words & music by Paul Simon 1975
E7 |Bm7 |
We were married on a rainy day
A7
The sky was yellow
|D6 |
And the grass was gray
D#dim
We signed the papers
|Em7
And we drove away
|A#dim Am |D9 |
I do it for your love
E7
The rooms were musty
|Bm7 |
And the pipes were old
A7 |D6 |
All that winter we shared a cold
D#dim
Drank all the orange juice
|Em7
That we could hold
|A#dim Eb7 |Ab Ab+|
I do it for your love
Dbm7
Found a rug
|Adim |
In an old junk shop
Db Dbmaj7 |Gb |
And I brought it home to you
Bbm |F#dim
Along the way the colors ran
| B7-5 |Bb7 |
The orange bled the blue
E7
The sting of reason
|Bm7 |
The splash of tears
A7 |
The northern and the southern
D6 |
hemisphere
D#dim |Em7
Love emerges and it disappears
|A#dim |Am
I do it for your love
D9 |G | |
I do it for your love
