Title: THE DANGLING CONVERSATION (Simon & Garfunkle)
C B D
It’s a still life water color
C B D
Of a now late afternoon
C B Am
As the sun shines through the curtain lace
G E F#
And shadows wash the room
Em
And we sit and drink our coffee
F E
Cast in our indifference, like shells upon the shore
D
You can hear the ocean roar
C B D G D C
In the dangling conversation, and the superficial sighs
G Em F#
The borders of our lives
C B D
And you read your Emily Dickenson
C B D
And I my Robert Frost
C B Am
And we note our place with bookmarkers
G E F#
That measure what we’ve lost
Em
Like a poem porely written
F E
We are verses out of rhythm, Couplets out of rhyme
D
In syncopated time
C B D G D C
And the dangling conversation, And the superficial sighs
G Em F#
Are the borders of our lives
C B D
Yes we speak of things that matter
C B D
With words that must be said
C B Am
Can analysis be worthwhile
G
Is the theatre really dead
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 B D G D C
Lost in the dangling conversation, And the superficial sighs
G Em F#
In the borders of our lives
