A7M                             D7M 
I remember flashbacks lighting up Magic Whip 
A7M                             D7M 
Eight o'clock, Kowloon emptiness, handle it 
A7M                                     D7M 
The white horse image I had of you eleven seconds ago 
A7M                          D7M 
I didn't send you, so you will never know 
  
Ponte:
A7M                D7M 
I got away... for a little while 
A7M                          D7M 
But then it came back...  much harder 
  
A7M                     D7M 
Swinging on a cable up to Po Lin 
A7M                               D7M 
Climbing panda, ghostly wine, and a battery 
A7M                                 D7M 
That light in your eyes I search for religiously 
A7M                              D7M 
When it's not there, oh Lord, it's hurting me 
  
A7M               D7M 
I got away... for a little while 
A7M                         D7M 
But then it came back... much harder 
  
A7M                          D7M 
'Til I ever hold you out there again, will you be mine? 
A7M                                  D7M   D7M  Eb7M 
'Cause I'm on a ghost ship drowning my heart in Hong Kong 
A7M                            D7M 
It's the last ride boarding here tonight, out in the bay (out in the bay) 
A7M                               D7M   D7M  Eb7M 
I'll need a lantern in you to shine out...  bright rays 
   
A7M                         D7M 
Feeling out of body here, what can I do? 
A7M                           D7M 
It's up to the top every day to join with you
