Swiss Cottage Place

(C) (C/b) (Am) (Am/g) (F) (G7)

I (C) turned down the (C/b) covers on a (Am) bed where two (Am/g) lovers
Found (F) reasons to (Am) face each new (Dm) day (Dm/c)
In a (G7) room full of memories in a house built for love
On a street down in Swiss Cottage (C) Place (G)
 
My mind just surrenders to all I remember
Come to steal the moment away
Yesterday's gone and where I stand here alone
It's a hollow ringing place called today

Last night I watched baby as she was boardin'
A Greyhound bus back to St Louis
And I couldn't let her know I knew why she was leavin' 
Not after all we've been through

Slippin' my coat from my shoulders I said hon'
It may get cold in St Louis
And the look in her eyes grew suddenly sad 
When she knew that I knew what she'd do

Now my mind surrenders to all I remember
Come to steal every moment away
Yesterday's gone and where I stand alone
It's a hollow ringing place called today
