Through a smoke filled glass on a desperate night 
        A         E         D 
When the sole of my shoe lets in rain 
           Bm               E              A     G#     F#m 
When the heart?s tired of running and the milk?s gone sour 
            Bm       A       E 
Will your feelings still be the same?

When the match won?t light so the flames don?t tremble 
          A          E          D 
And the years are condemning us till 
             Bm           E             A      G#      F#m 
I?ll need a soul mate to hold me and a friend for life 
         Bm        E        A 
And I?m hoping it might be you.
