Gm
Door
Don't close the door
I want to feel the cold
                   F
I want to see the light
Gm
Momma where you gone
This is no dream
               F
Can't make it right if it's wrong

Chorus:
D         D#   Cm
Dancing with strangers
D         D#   Cm
Fighting with friends
Gm     A#         C
It's a matter of time
Gm       D#          F
between love and despair
Gm      A#        C
Falling over the line
D#                F
Empty hearts and icy stares
 D#   F Gm
Call me Solitaire

The eyes
In the face on the wall
Follow me round the room
Follow me everywhere
A heart without an echo
A man without a child
Alone with all my sorrow

Chorus

It's a matter of time
between love and despair
Falling over the line
Empty hearts and icy stares
Call me Solitaire
Solitaire
