Capo at 3
No Emfeelin's ever coming close, 
I Clost the thing I loved the most.
I'm Gparalysed, I'm pDaralysed.
To Emhear goodbye with no regrets, 
Your Cwords I kept around my neck.
I'm Gterrified, I'm Dterrified.
(Pre-Chorus)
Through the Emtears through the pain, 
There's no way to explain, 
Why Cwe just said goodbye.
There's Gno us now, 
There's only you and DI.
(Chorus)
We're just Empeople, 
Tryin' to find our Cequal.
Hopin' someday we Gwill, 
We will find tDhe one.
Though we're Emhurtin', 
The candle's always Cburnin'.
So we keep on sGearchin', 
Searchin' for Dthe one.
Searchin' for the Emone, 
Oh woah oCh Gah Doooh.
(Verse 2)
No Emmatter if you run away, 
Some Cthings in life you can't escape.
I've Grealised, I've Drealised.
My Emangel's gone there's no surprise, 
You Csee like me there's no invites to Gparadise, 
Woah Dparadise.
(Pre-Chorus)
EmThrough the tears through the pain, 
There's no way to explain, 
CWhy we just said goodbye.
SGo hold me for the very last Dtime
(Chorus)
We're just Empeople, 
Tryin' to find our Cequal.
Hopin' someday we Gwill, 
We will find tDhe one.
Though we're Emhurtin', 
The candle's always Cburnin'.
So we keep on sGearchin', 
Searchin' for Dthe one.
Searchin' for the Emone, 
Oh woah oCh Gah Doooh.
(Bridge)
EmEvery year goes by, 
Our chances die, 
COf a love beyond belief.
GBut we'll walk this life and never be compDlete.
(Chorus)
We're just Empeople, 
Tryin' to find our Cequal.
Hopin' someday we Gwill, 
We will find tDhe one.
Though we're Emhurtin', 
The candle's always Cburnin'.
So we keep on sGearchin', 
Searchin' for Dthe one.
Searchin' for the Emone, 
Oh woah oCh Gah Doooh.

Capo at 3

No feelin's ever coming close,

I lost the thing I loved the most.

G D

I'm paralysed, I'm paralysed.

To hear goodbye with no regrets,

Your words I kept around my neck.

G D

I'm terrified, I'm terrified.

(Pre-Chorus)

Through the tears through the pain,

There's no way to explain,

Why we just said goodbye.

There's no us now,

There's only you and I.

(Chorus)

We're just people,

Tryin' to find our equal.

Hopin' someday we will,

We will find the one.

Though we're hurtin',

The candle's always burnin'.

So we keep on searchin',

Searchin' for the one.

Searchin' for the one,

C G D

Oh woah oh ah oooh.

(Verse 2)

No matter if you run away,

Some things in life you can't escape.

G D

I've realised, I've realised.

My angel's gone there's no surprise,

C G

You see like me there's no invites to paradise,

Woah paradise.

(Pre-Chorus)

Through the tears through the pain,

There's no way to explain,

Why we just said goodbye.

G D

So hold me for the very last time

(Chorus)

We're just people,

Tryin' to find our equal.

Hopin' someday we will,

We will find the one.

Though we're hurtin',

The candle's always burnin'.

So we keep on searchin',

Searchin' for the one.

Searchin' for the one,

C G D

Oh woah oh ah oooh.

(Bridge)

Every year goes by,

Our chances die,

Of a love beyond belief.

G D

But we'll walk this life and never be complete.

(Chorus)

We're just people,

Tryin' to find our equal.

Hopin' someday we will,

We will find the one.

Though we're hurtin',

The candle's always burnin'.

So we keep on searchin',

Searchin' for the one.

Searchin' for the one,

C G D

Oh woah oh ah oooh.
