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