The Dangling Conversation
Composição de (Paul Simon)
Eb  Gm  F,   Gm  F  Eb,   Eb Bb  Bb6  Bb7+ Bb6 
 
         Eb     Gm   F 
It's a still life watercolor 
        Eb       Gm  F  
Of a now late afternoon 
            Eb        Gm                  F  
As the sun shines through the curtain lace 
        Bb                          Bb6   Bb7+   Bb6 
And shadows wash the room 
 
             Gm 
And we sit and drink our coffee 
Ab 
Couched in our indifference 
         G 
Like shells upon the shore 
                F 
You can hear the ocean roar 
 
             Eb          Gm       F 
In the dangling conversation 
              Bb    F     Eb     
And the superficial sighs 
       Eb                  Bb      Bb6   Bb7+   Bb6 
The borders of our lives 
 
               Eb           Gm   F 
And you read your Emily Dickinson 
       Eb    Gm     F 
And I my Robert Frost 
             Eb         Gm           F 
And we note our place with bookmarkers 
        Bb                           Bb6  Bb7+  Bb6   
That measure what we've lost 
 
          Gm 
Like a poem poorly written 
             Ab 
We are verses out of rhythm 
G 
Couplets out of rhyme 
    F 
In syncopated time. 
 
             Eb          Gm     F 
And the dangling conversation 
              Bb    F     Eb     
And the superficial sighs 
             Eb                 Bb      B6   B7+   B6 
Are the borders of our lives 
 
             Eb          Gm            F 
Yes we speak of things that matter 
          Eb            Gm       F 
With words that must be said 
           Eb     Gm   F 
Can analysis be worthwhile? 
           Bb                 Bb6   Bb7+  Bb6 
Is the theatre really dead? 
 
 
      Gm 
And how the room has softly faded	 
         Ab 
And I only kiss your shadow 
  G 
I cannot feel your hand 
              F 
You're a stranger now unto me 
                  Eb          Gm   F 
Lost in the dangling conversation 
              Bb    F     Eb 
And the superficial sighs 
          Eb                  Bb   Bb6  Bb7+  Bb6  Bb? 
In the borders of our lives
