[Verse]
Em G I work in the dead of night, when the roads are quiet, Bm A And no one is around to track my moves Em G Racing the yellow lights to find the gate is open, Bm A She's waiting in the room. I just step on through
[Pre-Chorus]
Em Bm A Em OHHHHHHH You get in, you get done and then you get gone Bm A Em You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone Bm A G Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again A But the sun came up again
[Verse]
Em G Enter the morning light to find the day is burning Bm A the curtains and the wine in a little white room Em G Though I'm not alone, her head is heavy on me Bm She's sleeping like a child A What could I do
[Pre-Chorus]
Em Bm A Em OHHHHHHH You get in, you get done and then you get gone Bm A Em You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone Bm A G Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again A But the sun came up again
[Chorus]
Bm D G Em I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen Bm D G Em I'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thing Bm D G Em I'm an assassin and I had a job to do Bm D G Em Little did I know that girl was an assassin too
[Bridge]
D G Suddenly I'm in over my head Bm A and I can hardly breathe D G Suddenly I'm floating over Bm A her bed and I feel everything D G Suddenly I know exactly what I did, Bm A but I can not move a thing D G And suddenly I know exactly what I've done Bm A And what it's gonna mean to me, mean to me Em I'm gone
