  Hello...you  wanna cup of coffee?
  I'm sorry,  would you like a cup of coffee?
  Ok you take cream  and sugar?
 In truck  stops and hamburger joints
 In Cadillac limousines
 In the company of has-beens
 And bent-backs  and sleeping forms
 On pavement steps
 In libraries  and railway stations
 In books and banks
 In the pages of history
 In suicidal  cavalry attacks
 I recognise...
 Myself in every  stranger's eyes
 And in wheelchairs  by monuments
 Under tube trains and commuter accidents
 In council care and county courts
 At Easter fairs and sea-side resorts
 In drawing  rooms and city morgues
 In award winning photographs
 Of life rafts in the China seas
 In transit  camps, under arc lamps
 On unloading ramps
 In faces blurred by rubber stamps
 I recognise...
 Myself in every  stranger's eyes
 And now  from where I stand
 Upon this hill  I plundered from the pool
 I look around,  I search the skies
 I shade my eyes,  so nearly blind
 And I see signs  of half remembered  days
 I hear bells that  chime  in strange  familiar ways
 
 I recogn------ise...
 The hope you kindle  in your eyes
 It's oh so easy now
 As we lie  here in the dark
 Nothing interferes  it's obvious
 How to beat  the tears
 That threaten  to snuff out
 The spark  of our love

H[C]ello...you wanna cup of coffee?
  I'm s[Dm]orry, would you like a cup of coffee?
  Ok you take cr[G]eam and sugar?
In tr[C]uck stops and hamburger joints

In Cadillac limousines
In the company of h[Dm]as-beens
And bent-backs [G]  and sleeping forms

On pavement steps
In l[C]ibraries and railway stations

In books and banks
[Dm]  In the pages of history
In s[G]uicidal cavalry attacks
I recognise... [C]     [G/B]         [Am]
[F]  Myself in [G]every stranger's e[C]yes

And in wh[C]eelchairs by monuments

Under tube trains and commuter accidents
[Dm]   In council care and county courts
[G]  At Easter fairs and sea-side resorts
In dr[C]awing rooms and city morgues

In award winning photographs

Of life rafts in the China seas
In tr[Dm]ansit camps, under arc lamps

On unloading ramps
[G] In faces blurred by rubber stamps
I recognise...[C]   [G/B]       [Am]
[F]  Myself in [G]every stranger's [C]eyes

And n[C]ow from where I s[C]tand
Upon this [Dm]hill I plundered from the p[G]ool
I look ar[C]ound, I search the sk[C/E]ies
I shade my e[Dm]yes, so nearly bl[G]ind
And I see s[C]igns of half re[C/B]membered d[Am]ays
I hear bells t[G]hat ch[F]ime[C/E]    in str[Dm]ange familiar way[G]s
        [C]    [C/B]   [Am]
I recogn-[A]-[A]-[A]-[A]-[A]-ise...
[F]  The hope you k[G]indle in your ey[C]es

It's oh so easy now
As we l[F]ie here in the d[G]ark
Nothing [Em]interferes it's obvious
How to b[Am]eat the tears
That thr[Dm]eaten to snuff out
The sp[G]ark of our l[C]ove
