Verse 1
[D]You sat down next to me, like [Gm]poetry to wine
[D]Our window [D]looked upon a [Gm]yellow neon sign
[D]I took your hand while you [Gdim/Db]decided what to do
[Cm]The only kiss, I ever [D]miss, I shared with you
Eb Bb F Gm (piano notes: D-C-D-Eb-D-C-Bb)
The other cities hold a memory still of a place
But,[Eb] when I[Bb] dream[Cm] of [F]London, I can only see your face
Chorus
I [D]want you
Or[Gm] no one
[Eb]No one [Bb]else will do
D Dbdim7 (could also be Gdim7/Db)
You, or no one
[Gm]No one is the only one
[Cm]To fill the [D]empty [Gm]space I hold for you
Cm | Gm | Cm | Gm
Verse 2
[D]You simplified me [Gm]down to slogans on the wall
[D]I took [D]offense, but you [Gm]were right about them all
[D]My friends are [Gdim/Db]telling me I shouldn't waste my time
[Cm]But I can't [D]concentrate until I make you mine
Eb Bb F Gm (piano notes: D-C-D-Eb-D-C-Bb)
I'm drawing cards and making wishes down by the well
Who [Eb][Bb]would've [Cm]known I'd[F] lose myself in that old hotel
Chorus
I [D]want you
Or[Gm] no one
[Eb]No one [Bb]else for me
D Dbdim7 (could also be Gdim7/Db)
You, or no one
[Gm]'Cause no one else is strong enough

I [D]want you
Or[Gm] no one
[Eb]No one [Bb]else is fine
D Dbdim7 (could also be Gdim7/Db)
Oh you, or no one

[Cm]To fill me up [D]until I [Gm]make you mine
