[Intro] Dm C Bb Bb Dm C Bb Gm
Bb           Gm        Dm         F
When all are dizzy and happy from too much wine

  Bb        Gm      Dm     F
I leave the party behind

   Bb     Gm          Dm                F
To walk alone with my thoughts and this spinning mind

Bb           Gm         Asus4           A
Through this cold night but there she stands

        Dm         Am
And she walks like you

        Dm            Am
And she smiles almost like you

  F            C              G C/G G *
A child of the wild just like you
Yes Dm C Bb Bb Dm C Bb Gm
Bb    Gm       Dm      F
For a second I think I get a glimpse

Bb     Gm          Dm      F
Of the real her, behind

      Bb       Gm           Dm                F
She's warm and fragile with smiles that reach to her eyes

     Bb        Gm       Asus4       A
But just this moment a change so sublime

Bb C   Dm               C
If she looked me deep into my eyes

    Bb              
And softly asked me to

Bb  C  Dm              C
I'd be in her bed and in her flesh

    Bb              Gm
And waste a life I knew

Bb C Dm                 C
So I hold my breath and close my eyes

    Bb             
And focus on the wine

Bb  C    Dm                C
Let this trembling moment pass us by

Bb             Gm
So I could say goodnight

Bb           Gm        Dm     F
But then, on impulse I almost touched her face

  Bb     Gm             Dm         F
Before I pulled back my hand

    Bb       Gm       Dm            F
And we get nervous we laugh and she spills her wine

Bb      Gm           Asus4            A
Both so awkward, for what's on our mind

        Dm         Am
And she talks like you

        Dm            Am
And she smells almost like you

  F            C              G C/G G *
A child of the wild just like you

          Dm      Am
But she's not all you

     Dm             Am
Even strives not to be you

     F          C            G C/G G *
Just like every sister would do

       Gm            Dm
And perhaps it's the wine

        Gm            Dm
Or that you're in her eyes

      F             C          G C/G G *
But I want her this one single time
Just this one time Dm C Bb Bb Dm C Bb Gm
Bb C   Dm               C
If she looked me deep into my eyes

    Bb
And softly asked me too

Bb  C  Dm              C
I'd be in her bed and in her flesh

    Bb
And waste a life I knew

Bb C Dm                 C
So I hold my breath and close my eyes

    Bb
And focus on the wine

Bb  C    Dm               C
Let this trembling moment pass us by

   Bb
So I could say goodnight

    Bb C   Dm               C
And if I'd looked into her eyes

    Bb
And softly asked her too

Bb  C     Dm               C
She would give herself and give her flesh

    Bb
And waste a life she knew

Bb C  Dm                   C
So we hold our breath, and close our eyes

    Bb
And take a sip of wine

Bb  C    Dm            C
But this thirst has emptied every glass

    Bb
And we should say goodnight
...God, help me say goodnight
