(VERSE)
Em (022000@1) GI (320003@1)work in the dead of night, when the roads are quiet,
Bm (x24432@1) AAnd (x02220@1)no one is around to track my moves
Em (022000@1) G (320003@1)Racing the yellow lights to find the gate is open,
Bm (x24432@1) AShe's (x02220@1)waiting in the room. I just step on through
(PRE-CHORUS)
Em (022000@1) Bm (x24432@1) A (x02220@1) EmOHHHHHHH (022000@1) You get in, you get done and then you get gone
Bm (x24432@1) A (x02220@1) EmYou (022000@1)never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone
Bm (x24432@1) A (x02220@1) GShould've (320003@1)turned around and left before the sun came up again
ABut (x02220@1)the sun came up again
(VERSE)
Em (022000@1) GEnter (320003@1)the morning light to find the day is burning
Bm (x24432@1) Athe (x02220@1)curtains and the wine in a little white room
Em (022000@1) GThough (320003@1)I'm not alone, her head is heavy on me
BmShe's (x24432@1)sleeping like a child
AWhat (x02220@1)could I do
(PRE-CHORUS)
Em (022000@1) Bm (x24432@1) A (x02220@1) EmOHHHHHHH (022000@1) You get in, you get done and then you get gone
Bm (x24432@1) A (x02220@1) EmYou (022000@1)never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone
Bm (x24432@1) A (x02220@1) GShould've (320003@1)turned around and left before the sun came up again
ABut (x02220@1)the sun came up again
(CHORUS)

Bm (x24432@1) D (xx0232@1)G (320003@1) EmI'd (022000@1)steal your heart before you ever heard a thing
Bm (x24432@1) D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) EmI'm (022000@1)an assassin and I had a job to do
Bm (x24432@1) D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) EmLittle (022000@1)did I know that girl was an assassin too
(BRIDGE)
D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1)
Suddenly I'm in over my head
Bm (x24432@1) Aand (x02220@1)I can hardly breathe
D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1)
Suddenly I'm floating over
Bm (x24432@1) Aher (x02220@1)bed and I feel everything
D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1)
Suddenly I know exactly what I did,
Bm (x24432@1) A (x02220@1)but I can not move a thing
D (xx0232@1) GAnd (320003@1)suddenly I know exactly what I've done
