G                       F 
Soma is what they would take when 
           G 
Hard times opened their eyes 
    F 
Saw pain in a new way 
                  G 
High stakes for a few names 
            F 
Racing with sun beams 
               G 
Losing against their dreams 


In your eyes 
G        F# 
And I am 
G        F# 
Stop 
F        E 
And go 
F        E 
In your eyes 
G        F# 
See I am  
G        F# 
Stop 
F        E 
And go 
F        E 
In your eyes 


G     G      G      G 

G     G      G      G 
Let's go 
G                      F 
When I saw her for the first time 
              G 
Lips moved as her eyes closed 
                   F 
Heard something in his voice 
G 
'And I'll be there', he says 
F 
Then he walks out 
               G 
Somehow he was trying 
F 
Too hard to be like them 


G         F# 
Well I am 
G         F# 
Stop 
F         E 
And go 
F         E 
In your eyes 
G         F# 
And I am 
G         F# 
Stop 
F         E 
Oh, darling, let me go 



F             E        G 
Tried it once and they like it 
     F#             
Then tried to hide it 
G                           F# 
Says, 'I've been doing this 25 years' 
F                     E       F       E 
But I'm not listening no moooooooooore 
    G                        F#             G            F# 
And these friends, they keep asking for mooooooooooooooooore 
F      E          F            E 
Oh, yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah 

Oh, but that's it
