[Verse 1]
Dsus4/E Asus4/G I work in the dead of night, when the roads are quiet Badd9 Aadd9 And no one is around, to track my moves Dsus4/E Asus4/G Racing the yellow lights, to find the gate is open Badd9 Aadd9 She's waiting in the room, I just step on through
[Pre-Chorus]
Dsus4/E Badd9 Aadd9 Dsus4/E Woah, oah... You get in, you get done and then you gone Badd9 Aadd9 Dsus4/E You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone Badd9 Aadd9 Gadd9 Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again Aadd9 But the sun came up again
[Instrumental Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Em7 Asus4/G Badd9 Enter the morning light, to find the day is burning the curtains and the wine Aadd9 In a little white room Em7 Asus4/G Badd9 Though I'm not alone, her head is heavy on me, she's sleeping like a child Aadd9 What could I do
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7 Badd9 Aadd9 Em7 Woah, oah... You get in, you get done and then you gone Badd9 Aadd9 Em7 You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone Badd9 Aadd9 Gadd9 Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again Aadd9 But the sun came up again
[Chorus]
Bm D/F# Asus4/G Daug
Bm D/F# Asus4/G Em7 I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen Bm D/F# Asus4/G Em7 I'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thing Bm D/F# Asus4/G Em7 I'm an assassin and I had a job to do Bm D/F# Asus4/G Em Little did I know that girl was an assassin too
[Bridge]
D* G* Bm* A* Suddenly I'm in over my head and I can hardly breathe D* G* Bm* A* Suddenly I'm floating over her bed and I feel everything D* G* Bm* A* Suddenly I know exactly what I did, but I can't move a thing D* G* Bm* And suddenly I know exactly what I've done, A* and what it's gonna mean to me, mean to me D* G* Bm* A* I'm gooooooooone...
