Intro Am D C D (4x)
Am D
You want to know why I hate you?
C D
Well I~ll try and explain...
Am D
You remember that day in Paris
C D
When we wandered through the rain
Am D
And promised to each other
C D
That we~d always think the same
Am D C
And dreamed that dream to be two souls as one
Am D
And stopped just as the sun set
C D
And waited for the night
Am D
Outside a glittering building
C D
Of 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
Bm A
How beautiful you are
Bm A
The boy~s eyes said how beautiful
Bm
She shimmers like a star
Am Em
The child~s eyes uttered nothing
F
But mute and utter joy
Am Em
And filled my heart with shame for us
F
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
C D
To read my thoughts upon your face
Am D
And gazed so deep into your eyes
C D
So beautiful and strange
Am D C D
Until you spoke and showed me understanding is a dream
Am D
-I hate these people staring
C D
Make 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
D Am
And how I understand
D Am F
That no-one ever knows or loves another
Am
Or loves another
