Paul Simon 
With Simon & Garfunkel 1966

INTRO : D  Em  D  Em 

VERSE 1:

        D       Bm G    F#m
I can hear the soft breathing ,   Of the girl that I love,

DEm A7
As she lies here beside me    , Asleep with the night,

DBm       GF#m
And her hair, in a fine mist,Floats on my pillow,

D         Em  G    A7  D       Em       D
Reflecting the glow,Of the winter moonlight.



VERSE 2:

        D    Bm G     F#m
She is soft, she is warm,       But my heart remains heavy,

D,    Em     A7
And I watch as her breasts    Gently rise, gently fall,

DBm              GF#m
For I know with the    first light of dawn   I'll be leaving,      

D         Em  G    A7  D       Em       D
 And tonight will be        All I have left to recall.

VERSE 3:

      DBm     GF#m
Oh, what have I done,      Why have I done it,

DEmA7
I've committed a crime,       I've broken the law.

D     Bm       GF#m
For twenty-five dollars     And pieces of silver,

D         Em  G    A7  D       Em       D
I held up and robbed       A hard liquor store.

VERSE 4:

    DBm GF#m
My life seems unreal,   My crime an illusion,

DEm      A7
A scene badly written     In which I must play.

DBm       GF#m
Yet I know as I gaze       At my young   love beside me,

D         Em  G    A7  D       Em       D
The morning is just a few hours away.
