Capo on 1st C F C F F C Like a turning head F Like a second look C G Like a burning leaf of an open book Am Like a pounding sea F Like a messy crime C G When your eyes first met with mine C Like a broken word F Like a tragic smile C G Like a thousand steps or a single mile Am Like a lonely chance F Like a savage glow C G When you turned and said hello Am I was just about to go Bb F There were flowers on the ceiling Bb You left me feeling Like a fading voice Like a closing door Like a dozen lies and a dozen more Like a twisted tongue Like distant bike When we broke out into the dark The stars looked like burning sparks The lights were warm but chilling You left me feeling C Dm Tired Bb C Could not close my eyes C Dm On fire Bb C But frozen inside F Bb To run or to hide C Dm Bb C Speechless my words could not melt C Dm Bb C Whisper I wanted to shout F Bb With out you I felt Like a fleeting thought Like a double eight Like a gentle fear of a warming taste Like a placid breath Like a cooling blow When you stopped and held me close Inside I nearly froze Your touch is almost healing You left me feeling C Dm Tired Bb C Could not close my eyes C Dm On fire Bb C But frozen inside F Bb To run or to hide C Dm Bb C Speechless my words could not melt C Dm Bb C Whisper I wanted to shout F Bb With out you I felt C Like a setting sun F Like a last goodbye C F Like an incomplete lullaby C F C F F
