[R1] [R2] [R1a] [R1]

A5           C5             [R2]  F5
You don't know what it's been like
       D5                 [R1]
Meeting someone like you
A5           C5             [R2]  F5
You don't know what it's been like
       D5                 [R1](x8)
Meeting someone like you

[R1] (x4)
You look like Jesus on an aeroplane
[R1] (x4)
Ya head's against the window pane
[R2] (x4)
You got opinions but you ain't got news
[R3] (x4)
You got good laughs but when it suits you

[R1] (x4)
You turn it on like a leaking tap
[R1] (x4)
Dripping dropping people drop of a hat
[R2] (x4)
You gotta mouth but you ain't got guts
[R3] (x4)
That drunken mouth you should keep it shut

Meeting someone like you

[R1] (x4)
Superman on an aeroplane
[R1] (x4)
Sitting next to Lois Lane
[R2] (x4)
You got that woman but you want her gone
[R3] (x4)
So you can sleep with a teenage blonde

[R1] (x4)
You wear a mask, wear an armoured suit
[R1] (x4)
Can't get to you with the gun I shoot
[R2] (x4)
Ya play your cards close to your chest
[R3] (x4)
Because ya poker face is a dreary mess


A5           C5             [R2]  F5
You don't know what it's been like
D5                       [R1]
Meeting someone like you
A5           C5          F5 [R2]
You don't know what it's been like
D5                         [R1](x7)[R1a]
Meeting someone like you
