Sophia
Intro: D#-Bb-Gm-G# (2x) {or you can do it with just D#-Bb}
Verse 1:
Cm D# Bb (Gm-G#)
5 o' clock and a fire escape symphony,
Cm D# Bb (Gm-G#)
Spilling out across the road and the square,
Cm D# Bb (Gm-G#)
And the sky's the same as your own, do you think of me?
Cm D# Bb
Do the parks, and trees, and the leaves, reach you, there?
Refrain 1:
D# Bbm G# G#m
After the rain, in the lonely hours he haunts me, calling out,
Bb B Bb
Again and again.
Chorus:
Cm D# G# Bb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning.
G# Cm G# Bb
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out,
G# D# Cm Bb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things,
G# G#m Bb
I can't go without and one of them is him.
(Do the Verse 1 chords)
And now I walk these streets like a stranger in my hometown,
Learn the language, form the words when I speak,
But he changed me, I'm his ghost since he came around,
And now I count the hours and the days in the weeks.
Refrain 2:
D#
Passion and silence,
Bbm G#
Every word, every line, a measure,
G#m Bb D#
It's the science of the soul,
Bbm G# G#m Bb
B
And his books, they breathe a reason and now I want to know...
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
D#
And you, with your new born eyes,
Bbm G#
Have you ever loved a man like I love him?
D# Bb G# Bb
Do you hurt but still feel alive, like never before?
G# D# D# (G#-Bb)
Oh, Sophia, Sophia.
Chorus 2:
Cm D# G# Bb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning.
G# Cm G# Bb
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out,
G# D# Cm Bb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things,

I can't go without

I can't go without him
