Simon & Garfunkel - The Dangling Conversation
C G D It's a still life water color C G D Of a now late afternoon C G Am As the sun shines through the curtain lace G Em And shadows wash the room G Em And we sit and drink our coffee F E Couched in our indifference, like shells upon the shore D You can hear the ocean roar C G D G D C In the dangling conversation, and the superficial sighs G Em The borders of our lives C G D And you read your Emily Dickenson C G D And I my Robert Frost C G Am And we note our place with bookmarkers G Em That measure what we've lost G Em Like a poem poorly written F E We are verses out of rhythm, Couplets out of rhyme D In syncopated time C G D G D C And the dangling conversation, And the superficial sighs G Em Are the borders of our lives C G D Yes we speak of things that matter C G D With words that must be said C G Am Can analysis be worthwhile G Em Is the theater really dead? G Em And how the room is softly faded F E And I only kiss your shadow, I cannot feel your hand D You're a stranger now unto me C G D G D C Lost in the dangling conversation, And the superficial sighs G Em In the borders of our lives
