Key:
Am
Am C#m When I look into your eyes your
G 'drop like an anchor' eyes.
F I scudded and clipped the sky just
E Am shy of making it.
Am C#m And you almost got away, I told
G you I was afraid
F Did I really want to try, you're
E G holding me to my claim
Bm I jump on a high speed train, I'll
D never look back again
F E I flail like the antelope who
G jumped from the building
Am C#m and you caught me on the sly
G you've taken me by surprise.
F you've mirrored my best disguise
E G and turned it back on me.

Bm I jump on a high speed train I'll
D never look back again
F To Berlin, Kyoto or Marseilles I'd
E Am go anywhere for you

Am G F E Am ooh-ooh-ooh
Am C#m I'll bring you a big bouquet I
G picked it myself today
F it compliments your eyes there's
E G love at the end of the line Chorus(1) Chorus(2)
Bm And that's what I always knew I'd
D like to have hung the moon.
F I'd wrestle you for a spoon inside
E your sleeping bag.
F E Just us, no war, no hate, no past.
F E It's real. I'm here. I'm yours. I'm fast.
F E I'm long in the eye I'm cry when I try
Am I just want to fly just you and I, together
