The chords are:
Am D
You want to know why I hate you?
C DWell I~ll try and explain...
You remember that day in Paris
C DWhen we wandered through the rain
Am DAnd promised to each other
That we~d always think the same
Am D CAnd dreamed that dream to be two souls as one
Am DAnd stopped just as the sun set
And waited for the night
Am DOutside a glittering building
C DOf 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
Bm A
The father~s eyes said beautiful
How beautiful you are
Bm AThe boy~s eyes said how beautiful
BmShe shimmers like a star
The child~s eyes uttered nothing
FBut mute and utter joy
Am EmAnd filled my heart with shame for us
For the way we are
Am Em F(The way we are)
D Am D Am D Am F F
Am D
I turned to look at you
To read my thoughts upon your face
Am DAnd gazed so deep into your eyes
C DSo beautiful and strange
Until you spoke and showed me understanding is a dream
Am D-I hate these people staring
C DMake 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
D Am
And this is why I hate you
And how I understand
D Am FThat no-one ever knows or loves another
Am
Or loves another
