Intro: D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) A (x02220@1)

D (xx0232@1)            G (320003@1)               A (x02220@1)  Supermarket lights burn in the darkness



Em (022000@1)                 D/F# (200232@1)            G (320003@1)            A (x02220@1)  The chilly winter nights bring the scarves from the drawer



D (xx0232@1)                  G (320003@1)              A (x02220@1)  A crowd starts to gather on paving stone squares



Em (022000@1)               D/F# (200232@1)        G (320003@1)             A (x02220@1)  Teeth start to chatter as the staff leave the store



      Bm (x24432@1)         G (320003@1)         D (xx0232@1)          A (x02220@1)And daughters meet mothers and fathers meet sons



     Bm (x24432@1)              G (320003@1)             D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1)A (x02220@1)It's too dark to walk home without anyone



The shopping precinct's closed, it's like a graveyard

The chain falls through the spokes as I unlock my bike

I cycle to the pub where I meet with my friends

And I know that it's love as she pours me my pint



    Bm (x24432@1)             G (320003@1)          D (xx0232@1)                 A (x02220@1)And strangers meet strangers and friends share their lives



  Bm (x24432@1)         G (320003@1)                    D (xx0232@1)    Bb (x1333x@1)I look at her again and feel butterflies



           Am (x02210@1)           G (320003@1)NC

I pull the pillow to my side



        D (xx0232@1)          A (x02220@1)NC

And I imagine it is her



     Am (x02210@1)             G (320003@1)NC

As I slip into the night,



  D (xx0232@1)             A (x02220@1)NC

I know what I prefer



      Em (022000@1)       D/F# (200232@1)        G (320003@1)          D/F# (200232@1)But I hope and I pray that one day she will say



             Bm (x24432@1)That's it's true



         C (x32010@1)         G/A (320203@1)   D (xx0232@1)  G (320003@1)A (x02220@1)I can't live without loving you



Now there's no one around I push the bike home

The rain's a lovely sound as it runs down the path

There's our lights in the road, they amber the night

And there's nobody home, so I soak in the bath



And bubbles meet bubbles as they become one

I think about the world and what I have done



I pull the pillow to my side...

....I can't live without loving you



D (xx0232@1)            G (320003@1)                A (x02220@1)  Supermarket lights burn in the darkness     (repeat to fade)
