CmEbBb
5 o' clock and a fire escape symphony
CmEbBb
Spilling out across the road and the square
CmEbBb
And the sky's the same as your own, do you think of me
CmEbBb
Do the parks, and trees, and the leaves, reach you, there
EbBbmAbAbm
After the rain, in the lonely hours he haunts me, calling out
BbBBb
Again and again
[Chorus]
CmEbAbBb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning
AbCmAbBb
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out
AbEbCmBb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things
AbAbmBb
I can't go without and one of them is him
[Verse 2]
CmEbBb
And now I walk these streets like a stranger in my hometown
CmEbBb
Learn the language, form the words when I speak
CmEbBb
But he changed me, I'm his ghost since he came around
CmEbBb
And now I count the hours and the days in the weeks
Eb
Passion and silence
BbmAb
Every word, every line, a measure
AbmBbEb
It's the science of the soul
BBbmAb
And his books, they breathe a reason
AbmBb
and now I want to know
[Chorus]
CmEbAbBb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning
AbCmAbBb
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out
AbEbCmBb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things
AbAbmBb
I can't go without and one of them is him
[Bridge]
Eb
And you, with your new born eyes
BbmAb
Have you ever loved a man like I love him
EbBbAbBb
Do you hurt but still feel alive, like never before
AbEbEb (AbBb)
Oh, Sophia, Sophia
[Chorus]
CmEbAbBb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning
AbCmAbBb
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out
AbEbCmBb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things
Ab
I can't go without
AbAbmBbEb
I can't go without him
