Sofie by The Crookes
Intro: G G7 X2
F C
Bite marks on her arm, and she wakes up before the sound of her alarm,
C7 F F G
The voice on the radio, it makes you nervous lets you know
C C7
That you are one step from skid ro-o-oh
F
Smoke your cigarette, and drink your coffee and then
C C7
Maybe you’ll forget, there’s nowhere you wanna go and there is
F F G C
Nothing here to do Don’t waste your life thinking it through
Chorus
F C G
I’m thinking of you, I’m thinking of you, I’m thinking of you
C F C
Sofie it’s you, I’m thinking of you, I’m thinking of you,
G
I’m thinking of you
Dm G
And if you promise me you’ll try to stay happy and I will
C F
Promise you that I’ll do the same
Dm G C A
Sunken from the world outside, but you’ve only got yourself to blame
Dm G C
Promise me you’ll try, promise me you’ll try
F C
Teeth sink through the skin, she’s restless waiting for her new life to begin,
F F G
Nothing has captured her imagination, it’s not free
F G C
Please tell me what I should be, Sofie my friend, in the end
Am
Oh we’ll just make pretend
F G C Am F
And in time we’ll see, we’re not like them but just like you and me
G
Oh you and me
Dm G
And if you promise me you’ll try to stay happy and I will
C F
Promise you that I’ll do the same
Dm G C A
I’ve never been one for a cliché but I wanna dance with you in the rai-n
Dm G
F G C Am
Sofie my friend, in the end, oh we’ll just make pretend
F G C Am F
And in time we’ll see, we’re not like them but just like you and me
G
Oh you and me
C F C G
You, I’m thinking of you, I’m thinking of you, I’m thinking of you
C F C
Sofie it’s you, I’m thinking of you, I’m thinking of you,
G
I’m thinking of you Sofie |X2|
Dm G C A
It's you
Dm G
Promise me you’ll try to stay happy and I will
C F
Promise you that I’ll do the same
Dm G C
Promise me you’ll try, promise me you’ll try
C F C G repeat until fade
Enjoy
