Intro: Am D C D (4x)
AmYou want to know why I Dhate you'
Well I~ll Ctry and explainD...
You rAmemember that day in DParis
When we Cwandered through the Drain
And Ampromised to each Dother
That we~d Calways think the Dsame
And Amdreamed that dream to Dbe two souls as Cone
And Amstopped just as the Dsun set
And Cwaited for the Dnight
OutAmside a glittering Dbuilding
Of Cglittering glass and Dburning light...
And in the road before us stood a weary greyish man
Who held a child upon his back
A small boy by the hand
The three of them were dressed in rags and thinner than air
And all six eyes stared fixedly on you
The Bmfather~s eyes said Abeautiful
How Bmbeautiful you Aare
The Bmboy~s eyes said how Abeautiful
She Bmshimmers like a star
The Amchild~s eyes uttered Emnothing
But Fmute and utter joy
And Amfilled my heart with Emshame for us
For the Fway we are
(The Amway we areEm) F
D Am D Am D Am F F
I Amturned to look at Dyou
To read my Cthoughts upon your Dface
And Amgazed so deep inDto your eyes
So Cbeautiful and sDtrange
UnAmtil you spoke and Dshowed me underCstanding is a Ddream
-I Amhate these people Dstaring
Make them Cgo away from mDe-
The father~s eyes said beautiful
How beautiful you are
The boy~s eyes said how beautiful
She shimmers like a star
The child~s eyes uttered nothing
But pride and utter joy
And stilled my heart with sadness
For the way we are
And Dthis is why I Amhate you
And Dhow I underAmstand
That Dno-one ever Amknows or loves anotFher
Or loves anotheAmr
