Sitting in a café with a friend playing kiss and tell

Stringing my biography but she said she knew me well

We'd been meeting casually like dancers in the dark

But something unexpected struck a rock and hit a spark

 

|A           |B           |C#m    |              |

|A           |B           |C#m    |A/Ab   A/Ab A/Ab A/Ab A/Ab A/Ab A/B

Riff:        |-E-A     -E            |xn

 

Then it shifted (uh oh)

 Then it drifted

 Then it lifted

Till it overflowed

No disguising

It's surprising

Feel it rising

Up to overload...

 

Well we'd been dating for a while and I thought that thing were rolling along

Maybe its my style but sometimes I just read things wrong

For she must have caught the devil for she came at me mean and strong

I had to jump another level just to keep her here in this song

 

Then break – slower tempo and ¾ ish

 

A

Through the turmoil of fussing and fighting

Something meaningful hit me like lightning

All in all it was pleasantly frightening

F#m               G#m          A

Throwing me up in the air…………….

 

Maybe back to chorus in D?
