The Dangling Conversation chords
Simon & Garfunkel

Capo III

C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G D MajorD C majorC C majorC G+G E minorEm

    C majorC     G+G   D MajorD
It's a still life water color
   C majorC    G+G  D MajorD
Of a now late afternoon
    C majorC     G+G      A minorAm
As the sun shines through the curtain lace
  G+G        E minorEm
And shadows wash the room
    G+G
And we sit and drink our coffee
FF               E MajorE
Cast in our indifference, like shells upon the shore
    D MajorD
You can hear the ocean roar
    C majorC    G+G   D MajorD        G+G  D MajorD   C majorC
In the dangling conversation, and the superficial sighs
          G+G  E minorEm
The borders of our lives

    C majorC     G+G   D MajorD
And you read your Emily Dickenson
  C majorC  G+G   D MajorD
And I my Robert Frost
    C majorC    G+G     A minorAm
And we note our place with bookmarkers
   G+G         E minorEm
That measure what we've lost
    G+G
Like a poem poorly written
    FF           E MajorE
We are verses out of rhythm, Couplets out of rhyme
  D MajorD
In syncopated time
    C majorC    G+G   D MajorD        G+G  D MajorD   C majorC
And the dangling conversation, And the superficial sighs
            G+G   E minorEm
Are the borders of our lives

    C majorC    G+G      D MajorD
Yes we speak of things that matter
   C majorC     G+G    D MajorD
With words that must be said
  C majorC   G+G   A minorAm
Can analysis be worthwhile
    G+G       E minorEm
Is the theater really dead?
  G+G
And how the room is softly faded
   FF            E MajorE
And I only kiss your shadow, I cannot feel your hand

     D MajorD
You're a stranger now unto me

      C majorC    G+G   D MajorD        G+G  D MajorD   C majorC
Lost in the dangling conversation, And the superficial sighs
           G+G   E minorEm
In the borders of our lives
