"Look Through My Window"
(John Phillips)
Intro:
/ / / / / / / /
(And the rain beats on my roof)
(And it does not ask for proof)
Verse 1:
It's not that lovers are unkind
She always said there'd come a time
Ab Cm/G C
When one would leave and one stay behind
Verse 2:
We both knew people sometimes change
And lovers sometimes rearrange
And nothing's quite as sure as change
F (Bb)
And the rain beats on my roof
Chorus:
Look through my window (yeah)
To the street below
See the people hurryin' by
With someone to meet, someplace to go 
F Csus4 C [2: Csus4 C Csus4 C]
And I know I should let go
Verse 3:
She always said "I'm not like you
When love is dead for me it's through
Cb Ebm/Bb Eb F
And I will find and love someone new"
(and I will love somebody new)

repeat chorus

Verse 4 (chords as per verse 3):
I must admit she knew her mind
And it will not take her long to find
Another place where the sun will shine
(another place, another place where the sun
will shine)
Coda:
F Fsus4 [continue to fade]
(And the rain beats on my roof)
(If I still require proof)
(Well the rain beats on my roof) She's gone
(If I still require proof) She's gone
(Well the rain beats on my roof) Look through my window
(If I still require proof) All the people
(Well the rain beats on my roof) I love her
(If I still require proof) She's gone
