Flicker in My Eye - Hotel Lights

Intro:
C x2

Verse 1:

C
      G     Am
loves ashes
            F   C
cinders burning
                     G
these arms that once held you
       Am             F   C
like a sunset and the sea

              G     Am
like a sneaky thief
                        F     C
like the gulls flapping wings
                  G
how quickly we've ended up
Am        F
strangers

Chorus:
       C       G  F  C
just a flicker in my eye

C

Verse 2:
C
                  G    Am
like smoke from a fire
             F     C
a child in a chair
            G
your clever eyes
     Am         F    C
your long brown hair

                   G      Am
as the shopkeepers closed
                 F  C
crowds passed us by
            G
time has no patience
      Am      F
as we say goodbye

Chorus:
       C       G  F  C
just a flicker in my eye

Bridge:
F
              G          C         F
and the rainy pavement's glimmering
       G       C           F
like a hundred sparks gone white
            G         C       F
and in your heart you feel it don't you
           G   C    F
when it is all over
      G   C   F
it is all over
      G   C   F
it is all over


Verse 3:
C
         G          Am
and so i teased you
            F   C
to ease the air
                G
when sadness is stinging
             Am     F
when there's no reply


Chorus:
       C       G  F  C
Just a flicker in my eye
       C       G  F  C
Just a flicker in my eye
        C       G  F  C
(Just a flicker in my eye)

(I added that thrid refrain just 'cause it feels better than trying to replicate the ending on the recording.)
