[E]
[G]
[Dm] [D] [C]
[Am] [Em]
I [E]
[G] wonder lonely [D] streets, [A] man, where the old
[E] Thames does flow.
[G] And in every [D] face I meet, reminds [A] me of what I have [E] run for.
[A] In every man, in every hand, in [E] every kiss you understand that [C] living is for other men.
[D] I [G] hope you do
[D] understand.
[G] I've gotta tell you my [D] tale of [A] how I've loved and [E] how I've failed.
I [G] hope you [D] understand.
All these [A] feelings should not [E] be in the man.
[A] In every job, in every [Em] eye, in every sky above my head, [C] I hope that I'm [G] not so [D] cold when in bed.
[G] Because [A] it's you and me, we're history.
[E] There ain't nothing left to say [C] when I look at [G] you [D] growin'.
[G] Maybe we could find a [D] road where [A] we could see what [E] we should do.
[G] Maybe you know it's [D] true.
[Bm] [A] But living with me's [E] like keeping a fool.
[D] In every man, in [A] every [Em] hand, in every kiss [D] you [Em] understand [C] that living is [D] for other [G] men.
I [D] hope you know that I [G] am each [E] of them.
[D] I'm thinking [A] about [Em] history, and I'm living for [C] history.
[G] And I think you know [D] about me.
Because [G] I am [A] one of two, but [Em] three is company when you're thinking about the [C] things you do.
And you're thinking about the [G] things you do.
I wanna tell you my [D] tale of
[G] how [A] I've been in love and jumped out [E] on my bail.
[G] Do you understand?
[D]
[A] There's more in a smile than [E] in a hand.
[A] In every sky, in every kiss, [E] there's one thing that you might have missed.
[C] Why am I [G] going to [D] a place that I belongs [G] to you, [A] but you were me, and so am I.
[Em] Let's pick it up, [E] let's even [Em] try to [C] live today.
So [G] why [C] not smile, [G] don't dream away your life.
Because it [A] is mine,
[Em] it is mine.
It's not a [C] crime, it's not [G] a [D] crime.
This life [G] is [A] mine.
But the bed ain't [Em] made, it's filled with [C] hope.
I've got skin for [G] a dove.
[A] Oh, the bed [E] ain't made, but it's filled [Em] with [C] hope.
I've got skin for [G] a dove.
