Intro
G Bm Am C D7
[Verse 1]
G
These are the hands of a tired man
Bm
This is the old man's shroud
Am
These are the eyes of the blood crazed tiger
C D7
Staring at the maddening crowd
G
This is the face of a teenage mother
Bm
This is the child she bears
Am
This is the soul of her broken lover
C D7
Searching for the smiles they shared
G
These are the feet of the punished pilgrim
Bm
And in his book of punished love
Am
You see his eyes
You see no surprise...
C D7
Waiting for a lie that's told
[Chorus]
C Em D
Everybody hits you with this feeling, nobody seems to understand
C Em 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
Bm
And in his long lost days
Am
He sees a child...
He sees his eyes...
C D7
Waiting for the price he's paid
G
These are the tears of a fallen idol
Bm
And in his smile of shattered love
Am
You see his eyes...
You see no surprise...
C D7
You just see lights then realise
[Chorus]
C Em D
Everybody hits you with this feeling, nobody seems to understand
C Em D
You've got to stop your searching for the meaning of love
Cadd9
(wasting your life away)
[Bridge]
Em D Bm Am
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
Am C D7
But everybody hits you, and everybody knocks you down
