Am G
I work down at Ashbury Hills, minimum wage but it pays the bills
C G
Cleaning floors, and leading hymns on Sunday.
Am G
Katherine Davis room 303, the sweetest soul you ever could meet.
Em D C
I bring her morning coffee every day.
[Chorus]
C G
She calls me Raymond. She thinks I'm her son.
C D
Tells me get washed up for supper 'fore your daddy gets home.
C
She goes on about the weather,
Em D A
How she can't believe it's already 1943.
C
She calls me Raymond,
Am G
and that's alright by me
[Verse]
Am
She talks about clothes on the line in the summer air,
G
Christmas morning and Thanksgiving prayer
C G
And stories of the family that I never had.
Em D C
Well, sometimes I find myself wishing I'd been there
[Chorus]
C G
When she calls me Raymond. She thinks I'm her son.
C D
Tells me get washed up for supper 'fore your daddy gets home.
C
She goes on about the weather,
Em D A
How she can't believe it's already 1943.
C
She calls me Raymond,
G
and that's alright by me
[Bridge]
Am
There's a small white cross in Arlington,
G
Reads Raymond Davis '71.
F
Until she can see his face again
C
I'm gonna fill in the best I can...
[Chorus]
C G
When she calls me Raymond. She thinks I'm her son.
C D
Tells me get washed up for supper 'fore your daddy gets home.
C
She goes on about the weather,
Em D A
How she can't believe it's already 1943.
C
She calls me Raymond,
F G
and that's alright by me
[Otro]
C
She calls me Raymond,
