KATMANDU- Cat Stevens
D C D C D C D C
D C D
I sit beside the dark
F
Beneath the mire
C G
Cold grey dusty day
D/A A A (strum) C G D
The morning lake drinks up the sky
CHORUS #1:
RIFF 1 C G C G D
Katmandu, I’ll soon be seeing you
F G C
And your strange, bewildering time
F G RIFF 2 C/G B/G RIFF 3
Will hold me down
D C D C D C D C
Chop me some broken wood
We’ll start a fire
White, warm, light the dawn
And help me see, oh Satan’s tree
CHORUS #2:
Katmandu, I’ll soon be seeing you
And your strange, bewildering time
Will hold me down
Pass me my hat and coat
Lock up the cabin
Slow night, treat me right
Until I go, be nice to know
CHORUS #3:
Katmandu, I’ll soon be seeing you
And your strange, bewildering time
Will keep me home

NOTE: I did this in a rush- I didn’t have the time or skill to get all of
this, esp. the intro and outro parts. If anyone would like to do that
(plus fix the mistakes I undoubtedly made), please be my guest!
