Intro: C G C G Em Am F (x2)

 
F                    G                             C
Like a thistle on a tree, like the sparkle on the sea
        G         Am
You were made for glory
F                             G
And it's no wonder why you're here
    F      C
For all to see

F                     G                       C
But like a thorn on my flesh your beauty holds me
        G      Am
I can't find relief
F                             G
And it's no wonder why you're here
    F     C
To torture me

F           C         G         C G
Sometimes a man must find relief
F                C                    G     C G
In what he can't touch, what he can't see
F         C         G          C G 
Maybe he knows that it won't do
F                     G
But it will do for tonight

F                            G
And now that you are out of sight
           C             G          Am
I can only pray that you get out of my mind
F                             G
But those prayers don't often work for me
       F       C
You're all I see


F           C         G         C G
Sometimes a man must find relief
F                C                    G     C G
In what he can't taste, what he can't see
F         C         G          C G 
Maybe he knows that it won't do
F                     G
But it will do for tonight
          C G C G
Oh, for tonight
Em Am F
Oh, tonight

F                     G
Like a thorn upon my flesh
F                    G
Like a thorn upon my flesh
F                       C Am C G
Like a thorn upon my flesh

F           C         G         C G
Sometimes a man must find relief
F         C           G     C G
Whatever ways that he can
F         C         G          C G 
Maybe he knows that it won't do
F                     G
But it will do for tonight


F           C         G         C G
Sometimes a man must take the fall
F         C           G     C G
Few other ways will he learn
F              C         G          C G 
Just when he's ready to lose it all
F                G
Someone comes along

F                    G                             C
Like a thistle on a tree, like the sparkle on the sea
