Verse:
      A augmentedA      F# minorF#m    A augmentedA      F# minorF#m
Through a smoke filled glass on a desperate night
    A augmentedA     E MajorE     D MajorD
When the sole of my shoe lets in rain
      B minorBm        E MajorE       A augmentedA   G#G#   F# minorF#m
When the heart’s tired of running and the milk’s gone sour
      B minorBm    A augmentedA    E MajorE
Will your feelings still be the same?

     A augmentedA      F# minorF#m     A augmentedA      F# minorF#m
When the match won’t light so the flames don’t tremble
     A augmentedA     E MajorE     D MajorD
And the years are condemning us till
       B minorBm      E MajorE       A augmentedA   G#G#   F# minorF#m
I’ll need a soul mate to hold me and a friend for life
     B minorBm    E MajorE    A augmentedA
And I’m hoping it might be you.

As a compromise tinged with regret
     B minorBm       E MajorE       A augmentedA G#G#  F# minorF#m
When the kids leave for breeding and the T V’s king
     B minorBm     A augmentedA    E MajorE
Will you tell me we’re not done yet,

    A augmentedA   F# minorF#m    A augmentedA    F# minorF#m
Will you think of me as a distant island
     A augmentedA     E MajorE        D MajorD
Or will you come with me to the moon?
     B minorBm      E MajorE       A augmentedA   G#G#   F# minorF#m
I need a soul mate to hold me and a friend for life

And I’m hoping it might be you

Give me a asylum and I’ll keep the faith,
D MajorD      A augmentedA       E MajorE
Keep me in coffee and so safe
D MajorD          C# minorC#m   A augmentedA  G#G#   F# minorF#m

  B minorBm     E MajorE     A augmentedA
And I’ll be your one-night stand

That the catch is – is this- no catch at all

I’ll need a soul mate to hold me and a friend for life
