Soma is what they would take when
           G
Hard times opened their eyes
    F
Saw pain in a new way
                  G
High stakes for a few names
            F
Racing with sun beams
               G
Losing against their dreams

In your eyes
G        F#
And I am
G        F#
Stop
F        E
And go
F        E
In your eyes
G        F#
See I am 
G        F#
Stop
F        E
And go
F        E
In your eyes

G     G      G      G

G     G      G      G
Let's go
G                      F
When I saw her for the first time
              G
Lips moved as her eyes closed
                   F
Heard something in his voice
G
"And I'll be there", he says
F
Then he walks out
               G
Somehow he was trying
F
Too hard to be like them

G         F#
Well I am
G         F#
Stop
F         E
And go
F         E
In your eyes
G         F#
And I am
G         F#
Stop
F         E
Oh, darling, let me go

F             E        G
Tried it once and they like it
     F#            
Then tried to hide it
G                           F#
Says, "I've been doing this 25 years"
F                     E       F       E
But I'm not listening no moooooooooore
    G                        F#             G            F#
And these friends, they keep asking for mooooooooooooooooore
F      E          F            E
Oh, yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah

Oh, but that's it
