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