C#m       E
Can you see me baby
  A              G#
Standing in the light
C#m          E
I feel your cat's eyes on me
 A             G#
Faster in the night
C#m       B
I move inside
          A
Got those eyes
             B
Something's burning baby
          C#m
That's alright
        B
You and I
        A
Here tonight

Chorus:
B                     F#m
Meet me on the other side
A                    C#m
'Cause you can do me right
                       F#m
Take me where I cannot hide
A                    C#m
'Cause you can do me right
                     F#m
Meet me on the other side

You don’t know me, girl
I’m faceless in the crowd
The things I could show you, babe
Come on, come on to my cloud

I'm, I’m alive
And tonight something’s falling, babe, you and I
Or the sky
I can see it, it's in your eyes

Chorus:
Meet me on the other side
(‘Cause you can do me right)
Take me where I cannot hide
(‘Cause you can do me right)
You need, baby, open wide
(‘Cause you can do me right) tonight
Take me to the other side
(‘Cause you can do me right) cannot hide
I speak French today, baby
(‘Cause you can do me right)
(‘Cause you can do me right)
Meet me on the other side
(‘Cause you can do me right)
Take me where I cannot hide
(‘Cause you can do me right)
Yeah
