Intro: D G A D G A Supermarket lights burn in the darkness Em D/F# G A The chilly winter nights bring the scarves from the drawer D G A A crowd starts to gather on paving stone squares Em D/F# G A Teeth start to chatter as the staff leave the store Bm G D A And daughters meet mothers and fathers meet sons Bm G D G A It's too dark to walk home without anyone The shopping precinct's closed, it's like a graveyard The chain falls through the spokes as I unlock my bike I cycle to the pub where I meet with my friends And I know that it's love as she pours me my pint Bm G D A And strangers meet strangers and friends share their lives Bm G D Bb I look at her again and feel butterflies Am G NC I pull the pillow to my side D A NC And I imagine it is her Am G NC As I slip into the night, D A NC I know what I prefer Em D/F# G D/F# But I hope and I pray that one day she will say Bm That's it's true C G/A D G A I can't live without loving you Now there's no one around I push the bike home The rain's a lovely sound as it runs down the path There's our lights in the road, they amber the night And there's nobody home, so I soak in the bath And bubbles meet bubbles as they become one I think about the world and what I have done I pull the pillow to my side... ....I can't live without loving you D G A Supermarket lights burn in the darkness (repeat to fade)
