Intro LAm RE DO RE (4x)
LAm RE
You want to know why I hate you?
DO RE
Well I~ll try and explain...
LAm RE
You remember that day in Paris
DO RE
When we wandered through the rain
LAm RE
And promised to each other
DO RE
That we~d always think the same
LAm RE DO
And dreamed that dream to be two souls as one
LAm RE
And stopped just as the sun set
DO RE
And waited for the night
LAm RE
Outside a glittering building
DO RE
Of glittering glass and burning light...
And in the road before us stood a weary greyish man
Who held a child upon his back
A small boy by the hand
The three of them were dressed in rags and thinner than air
And all six eyes stared fixedly on you
SIm LA
The father~s eyes said beautiful
SIm LA
How beautiful you are
SIm LA
The boy~s eyes said how beautiful
SIm
She shimmers like a star
LAm MIm
The child~s eyes uttered nothing
FA
But mute and utter joy
LAm MIm
And filled my heart with shame for us
FA
For the way we are
LAm MIm FA
(The way we are)
RE LAm RE LAm RE LAm FA FA
LAm RE
I turned to look at you
DO RE
To read my thoughts upon your face
LAm RE
And gazed so deep into your eyes
DO RE
So beautiful and strange
LAm RE DO RE
Until you spoke and showed me understanding is a dream
LAm RE
-I hate these people staring
DO RE
Make them go away from me-
The father~s eyes said beautiful
How beautiful you are
The boy~s eyes said how beautiful
She shimmers like a star
The child~s eyes uttered nothing
But pride and utter joy
And stilled my heart with sadness
For the way we are
RE LAm
And this is why I hate you
RE LAm
And how I understand
RE LAm FA
That no-one ever knows or loves another
LAm
Or loves another
