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 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

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
