C D7
I saw you last evening
Dm7 C
In a shop on the King's Road
C D7
Looking through the window
Dm7 C
Just as it was going to close
Gm7 F
Our eyes met for an instant
D7 G/D
And, then you were gone
C D7
And all that evening I couldn't stop myself from thinking:
Dm7 G/D
"Well... Oh, were you The One?"
[Chorus]
C G F C Am
We keep on searching, despite ourselves
Fm
Thinking we will find somewhere in the world
E
That someone who will be The One
F G
Are you The One? Are you The One? - oh!
C Am
Our eyes will meet in a crowded room
Fm
And a bell will ring, and our hearts 'll go "boom!"
E
And the future will reveal itself
F G
And we'll never need for no-one else
[Verse 2]
C D7
You sat next to me in the cinema
Dm7 C
You walked past me in the snow
C D7
I kissed you once by a cigarette-machine
Dm7 C
As the club was about to close
Gm7 F
But each time you looked different:
D7 G/D
Your face, your body and your hair
C D7 Dm7
I've collected you in installments for sometime now
G/D
Over years and years
[Chorus]
C G F C Am
Yeah, we keep on searching, despite ourselves
Fm
Thinking we will find somewhere in the world
E
That someone who will be The One
F G
Are you The One? Are you The One? - oh!
C Am
Our eyes will meet in a crowded room
Fm
And a bell will ring, and our hearts 'll go "boom!"
E
And the future will reveal itself
F G C
And we'll never need for no-one, no-one else
[Instrumental]
C Am Fm E F G
B C G F
[Bridge]
E F
I don't know who I'm fooling
C
But I guess it gives me something to do, something to do
E F
It's been going on so long now
Am G
Well, how am I ever gonna know if it's really you? - oh, yeah!
[Instrumental]
C G Am F G C G
C G Am F G C G
[Chorus]
C Am
Oh, we keep on searching, despite ourselves
Fm
Thinking we will find somewhere in the world
E
That someone who will be The One
F G
Are you The One? Are you The One? - oh!
C Am
Our eyes will meet in a crowded room
Fm
And a bell will ring, and our hearts 'll go "boom!"
E
And the future will reveal itself
F G C
And we'll never need for no-one, no-one else
[Outro]
Fm
No, no - no, no
E
No, no - no, no
F G
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
C
No-one else
Fm
No-one else
