[Intro]
(half time, repeat four times)
[Dmaj7] [Em7]
[Verse]
D A Bm G x 2
In a [D]village in the [A]hills
House buried to the [Asus4]window sills in [G]snow
In a [D]prison yard at [A]night
An Alsatian [Asus4]barking for the stars to [G]go
In the [D]attic of a [A]house
In the slats of [Asus4]light which creep across the [G]room
In a [D]forest grove at [A]dawn
Where the [Asus4]animals sleep hidden in the [G]gloom
[Chorus]
On the [Bb]97th floor over[Bm]looking Tokyo
In [Bb]Camden road in a second floor flat with [Bm]Dilworth down below
There is [Bb]only one thing[Bm]
[Bb] There is [A]only one [D]thing
[Verse]
In a [D]cancer ward where the [A]patients sit
Waiting [Asus4]patiently to [G]die
In an [D]aeroplane high ab[A]ove the place
You [Asus4]finally left be[G]hind
In a [D]cage where only [A]one thing could be free
And [Asus4]it's not you and [G]I
In a [D]cage where only [A]one thing could be free
And [Asus4]it's not you and [G]I
[Chorus]
In [Bb]every single place that has [Bm]ever ever been
Hi[Bb]roshima, Los Angeles and [Bm]each town in between
There is [Bb]only one thing
There is [Bm]only one thing[Bb][A]
[Intro]
(half time again, repeat four times again then straight into the verse)
One [Dmaj7]thing [Em]
[Verse]
In the [D]darkest part of [A]you that [Asus4]you have ever [G]seen
In the [D]smile of the [A]child staring [Asus4]at the TV s[G]creen
In the [D]diary of a [A]priest, in the sheets that [Asus4]lie upon his [G]bed
Out [D]there amongst the [A]waves and [Asus4]inside your lover's [G]head
[Chorus]
There is [Bb]only one thing
There is [Bm]only one thing
There is [Bb]only one thing
There is [Bm]only one thing
There is [Bb]only one thing
There is [Bm]only one thing
[Bb] There is [A]only
N.C.
one thing
[Outro]
(tempo slows down)
Em7 G D x 2
[Em7]20 years of sleep before we s[G]leep... forever[D]
[Em7]20 years of sleep before we s[G]leep... forever[D]
[Em7]10 years on the coast figuring [G]out the weather[D]
Another [Em7]decade getting high
until you're [G]free
There's nothing [D]after that but you and I
Nothing after that buy you and me
[Em7]20 years of sleep before we s[G]leep... forever[D]
