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.)
