Connection (2022) (video)

A

1. I don't have time and it's Friday night,

G

been sleeping with two eyes open looking for you, for you.

A

The kind of girl who won't apologise,

G

something cool in her oceans washes over you, over you.

A

And I'm just trying to catch her eyes, her blue jeans don't fit quite right,

G

she smiles, yeah, she smiles !

A

I don't know how, I don't know why, I'm just trying to make a connection,

G

to the left, to the right, I'm just trying to make a connection.

A

And in your eyes a silhouette, I'm just trying to make a connection,

G

I'm not a man to walk away,

G A

I'm not a man to walk away from a connection.

A

2. The morning sun caresses hеr skin,

G

my mouth is dry as Gordon's gin, but I feel alive, feel alive.

A

She said, "I don't bеlieve in love at first sight,

G

but you can take me home if it feels alright, oh, baby, oh, baby."

A

I said, "You drink as fast as Hemingway,

G

but you still know all the right words to say, oh, baby, pretty baby."

+ CHORUS

Bm - G A

+ Connection, connection, connection, connection.

A

I'm not a man to walk away from a connection,

D - G A

connection, connection, connection.

A - D

+ You always felt so out of place as the light hits your face

G

and the dust falls from your eyes,

G

you said you never want to say goodbye.

A

We took a cab to the white light,

Bm

you said you don't want to end the night.

G

And I said "I'm not a man,

G A

I'm not a man to walk away from a connection !"

A

I don't know how, I don't know why, I'm just trying to make a connection,

G

to the left, to the right, I'm just trying to make a connection.

A

And in your eyes a silhouette, I'm just trying to make a connection,

G

I'm not a man to walk away,

G A

I'm not a man to walk away from a connection.

Bm - G A

+ Connection, connection, connection, connection.

A - Bm - G

I'm not a man to walk away from a connection.
