and so we meet and there are sparks
G C G
it’s gold , it’s new and free from sharks
G C G
your house is big and seems so clean
G C G
your cleaning lady comes and we’re discreet

Em D C G
are you lightning? ’cause i’m waiting
Em D C G
what’s the timing? i’m not playing

G – C – G

G C G
and so i act like i’m twenty – one
G C G
wide eyed and drifting mon to sun
G C G
payback is here my legs are numb
G C G
i’m back at square one feeling dumb

Em D C G
the sweet things , when do they come?
Em D C G
have i gone deaf? what’s the song?
Em D C G

i see you in my sheets , i see you in my sleep
G D
i see you through the mirror , you sing when i’m too steep
Am
the only thing i’m scared of is there a secret that you keep
G D
i know where you are , but i don’t know where you are
Am
don’t make the other wonder or the other’s mind stick
G D
tell me what you’re thinking , do not let me twist
Am
just look at the size of you

Am G D
i see you in my sheets , i see you in my sleep
Am
i see you when something’s funny and i hear you and i almost weep
G D
i see you from my steps , you’re walking up my street
Am G D
just look at the size of you

D Am
i see you in my sheets , i see you in my sleep
G D
i see you from my steps you’re walking up my street
Am
just look at the size of you
G D
the sun shine on and on
Am G D
let the sun shine on and on
