Am                    C#m                              G 
When I look into your eyes your 'drop like an anchor' eyes. 
                          F                E             Am 
I scudded and clipped the sky just shy of making it. 
 
Am                  C#m                      G 
And you almost got away, I told you I was afraid 
                     F             E                G 
Did I really want to try, you're holding me to my claim 
                       Bm                            D 
I jump on a high speed train, I'll never look back again 
                     F         E                         G 
I flail like the antelope who jumped from the building  
    Am                   C#m                         G 
and you caught me on the sly you've taken me by surprise. 
                           F                    E                G 
you've mirrored my best disguise and turned it back on me.

Chorus(2): 
                       Bm                           D 
I jump on a high speed train I'll never look back again 
                 F                 E               Am 
To Berlin, Kyoto or Marseilles I'd go anywhere for you 
  
Am G Am G  
ooh-ooh-ooh 
Am G  F E Am 
ooh-ooh-ooh 
   
Am                      C#m                       G 
I'll bring you a big bouquet I picked it myself today 
                    F             E                      G     
it compliments your eyes there's love at the end of the line 
  
Chorus(1) 
Chorus(2) 
 
                         Bm                              D 
And that's what I always knew I'd like to have hung the moon. 
                      F                    E 
I'd wrestle you for a spoon inside your sleeping bag. 
     F               E 
Just us, no war, no hate, no past. 
     F                    E 
It's real. I'm here. I'm yours. I'm fast. 
    F                    E 
I'm long in the eye I'm cry when I try  
  Am 
I just want to fly just you and I, together
