Simon & Garfunkel Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M. Lyrics

Capo:5
Intro: C/G Dm Dm C/G
(Verse 1)
I can hear the soft breathing of the girl that I love,
As she lies here beside me asleep with the night,
And her hair, in a fine mist floats on my pillow,
Reflecting the glow of the winter moonlight.
C/G Dm Dm C/G (same as intro)
(Verse 2)
She is soft, she is warm, but my heart remains heavy,
And I watch as her breasts gently rise, gently fall,
For I know with the first light of dawn I'll be leaving,
And tonight will be all I have left to recall.
(verse 3)
Oh, what have I done, why have I done it,
I've committed a crime, I've broken the law,
For twenty-five dollars and pieces of silver,
I held up and robbed a hard liquor store.
(verse 4)
My life seems unreal, my crime an illusion,
A scene badly written in which I must play,
Yet I know as I gaze at my young love beside me,
The morning is just a few hours away.
Outro: C/G Dm Dm Dm C/G (Last chord one strum)
