Rain poured down the wind swept avenue
   D                  Bm          A
On another dark wet December afternoon
Em               G               D    A
All my cherished memories are of you
Em                G                   A
All my warmth and comfort stayed with you

          Em                      G                   D    A
They're a great bunch of guys but I think they're all gay
Em              G                           A
What am I doing avoiding what I'm trying to say
