Raymond Lyrics

The intro heard is a simple pick played off an Am. There is a second guitar
playing a G-chord pic. The best way to play the intro with one guitar is to strum
an A-m and hammer on the pointer finger then pull off the pointer when switching to G. CAPO 3RD
I work down at Ashbury Hills, Minimum wage but it pays the bills cleaning
floors, and leading hyms on sunday. Katherine Davis room 303, the sweetest
soul you ever could meet. I bring her morning coffee everyday.
She calls me Raymond. She thinks I'm her son, tells me get washed up for
supper for your daddy gets home. She goes on about the weather and how she
can't believe it's already 1943. She calls me Raymond, and that's alright by
me
She talks about clothes on the line the summer air, Christmas morning and
Thanksgiving prayer and stories of the family that I never had. Well
sometimes I find myself wishing I'd been there
When she call's me Raymond....... and it's alright by me
There's a small white cross in Arlington, reads Raymond Davis '71. Until she
can see his face again, I'm gonna fill in the best I can
M
When she calls me Raymond.....and that's alright by me. She call's me
Raymond, and that's alright by me.
Strum through and song ends on G.
It's a beautiful song. Hope you enjoy it.
