Intro
C# Fm D#m F# G#7
[Verse 1]
C#
These are the hands of a tired man
Fm
This is the old man's shroud
D#m
These are the eyes of the blood crazed tiger
F# G#7
Staring at the maddening crowd
C#
This is the face of a teenage mother
Fm
This is the child she bears
D#m
This is the soul of her broken lover
F# G#7
Searching for the smiles they shared
C#
These are the feet of the punished pilgrim
Fm
And in his book of punished love
D#m
You see his eyes
You see no surprise...
F# G#7
Waiting for a lie that's told
[Chorus]
F# A#m G#
Everybody hits you with this feeling, nobody seems to understand
F# A#m G#
You've got to stop your searching for the meaning of love
Cadd9
(wasting your life away)
[Verse 2]
C#
These are the dreams of a sleeping father
Fm
And in his long lost days
D#m
He sees a child...
He sees his eyes...
F# G#7
Waiting for the price he's paid
C#
These are the tears of a fallen idol
Fm
And in his smile of shattered love
D#m
You see his eyes...
You see no surprise...
F# G#7
You just see lights then realise
[Chorus]
F# A#m G#
Everybody hits you with this feeling, nobody seems to understand
F# A#m G#
You've got to stop your searching for the meaning of love
Cadd9
(wasting your life away)
[Bridge]
A#m G# Fm D#m
Oh here with you, there's no one here like you, and no one moves like you
F#
Nobody touches like you, nobody moves like you
D#m F# G#7
But everybody hits you, and everybody knocks you down
