I sit beside the dark

Beneath the mire

Cold grey dusty day

The morning lake drinks up the sky

Katmandu, I'll soon be seeing you
F G C
And your strange, bewildering time
F G (riff 2) C/G B/G (riff 3)
Will hold me down
( D C D C D C D C )
Chop me some broken wood
We'll start a fire
White, warm, light the dawn
And help me see, oh Satan's tree
(Refrão)
Katmandu, I'll soon be seeing you
And your strange, bewildering time
Will hold me down
Pass me my hat and coat
Lock up the cabin
Slow night, treat me right
Until I go, be nice to know
(Refrão)
Katmandu, I'll soon be seeing you
And your strange, bewildering time
Will keep me home
