Someone Like You

Aurelio Voltaire


Tom: Am

Am         F
I was lost. I was shattered.
C             E
I was lonely. I was blue
Am                 F
In my world full of shadows
           C
Covered in cobwebs.
          E
Draped in gloom.

[Bridge]

Am F C E

    Am              F
And then, something happened.
              C
You just came waltzing in
                   E
Like a warm summer breeze
                   Am
And spring bloomed again
                    F
And I caught myself smiling
        C                             E
For the first time since I don't know when


[Chorus]

           Am              F
Because of you, because of you
              C                       E
How long I've waited for someone like you.
         Am                 F
Say it's true, tell me it's you
             C
All my world needed
          G           Am
To see it through was you.

[Bridge]

Am F C E x2

[Verse 2]

Am
What is this feeling that's got my heart reeling
    F
I'm scaling the walls and I'm pacing the floor
  C
I know this desire that's loaded with fire
E
'cause it's a fire that's burned me before
      Am
And I don't know if I have the power to try
    F
The last time I did left me battered and bruised
  C
I felt my heart die, I've got nothing inside
E
Well, then I guess I've got nothing to lose

       Am                  F
I will tear the blinds and let all this light
             C                    E
Wash out the hurt and lies I went through.
       Am              F
I will wave goodbye to sobbing in the night
          C                 E
I'm gonna let my life start anew.


[Chorus]

           Am              F
Because of you, because of you
              C                       E
How long I've waited for someone like you.
         Am                 F
Say it's true, tell me it's you
             C
All my world needed
          G           Am
To see it through was you.

[Bridge]

Am, F

              C                       E
How long I've waited for someone like you.
         Am                 F
Say it's true, tell me it's you
             C
All my world needed
       G         Am
Please say it's you.
