             Am                       F
I work in the dead of night, when the roads are quiet...

              Am               G
And no one is around, to track my moves

           Am                         F
Racing the yellow lights, to find the gate is open...

                    Am                 G
She's waiting in the room, I just step on through
Pre-Chorus
Am              F                                 Am
Woah, oah... You get in, you get done and then you gone

         FAm
You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone
                

         F                                          Am
Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again


                G      
But the sun came up again

Am - F - Am - G Verse 2
         Am                         F                                  Am

Enter the morning light, to find the day is burning the curtains and the wine

           G

In a little white room

         Am                      F                                  Am

Though I'm not alone, her head is heavy on me, she's sleeping like a child


          G
What could I do
Play Pre-Chorus Again Chorus
Am                      F*               G*

 I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen

Am                              F*           G*

 I'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thing

Am                    F*           G*

 I'm an assassin and I had a job to do

Am                              F*          G*

 Little did I know that girl was an assassin too

Bridge
Am           F               Am               G

 Suddenly I'm in over my head and I can hardly breathe

Am                F                Am               G
   
 Suddenly I'm floating over her bed and I feel everything

Am              F              Am                       G

 Suddenly I know exactly what I did, but I can't move a thing

Am                 F                   Am 
 And suddenly I know exactly what I've done,

                           G
and what it's gonna mean to me, mean to me



   Am                F                 Am               G
I'm gooooooooone, I'm gooooooooone, I'm gooooooooone...
Play Chorus Again

Am                       F*           G*
