| D | G7 |
| I turned on the TV | war news |
| D | G7 |
| just to | look and wonder | why. |
| D | G7 |
| Thunder | crashed and red flash- | flowers |
| D | G7 |
| bloomed a | nightmare in the | sky. |
| A7 | G7 | D |
| Umm... | mmm... | mmm. |
So I went down to the café
just to string myself along.
On the way I found some riches --
played the jukebox, got this song.
Umm... mmm... mmm
While I sat there a ragged man came --
bummed a coffee, talked awhile.
Told me stories full of wonder --
left me laughing like a well-loved child.
Umm... mmm... mmm
