Intro: A minorAm E minorEm FF G+G A minorAm C majorC FF

A minorAm   E minorEm      FF   G+G
Got a letter from a messenger
A minorAm C majorC       FF
I read it when it came
A minorAm    E minorEm      FF   G+G
It said that you were wanted
A minorAm    C majorC       FF
You were bound and chained

C majorC              FF
You had loved and you were handled
C majorC              G+G
You were poisoned you were pained
   A minorAm   FF     G+G        C majorC
Oh no, Oh no you were naked you were shamed

A minorAm     E minorEm     FF   G+G
You could almost touch heaven
A minorAm   C majorC         FF
Right there in front of you
A minorAm  E minorEm       FF     G+G
Liberty just slipped away from us
A minorAm     C majorC        FF
Now there's so much work to do

C majorC             FF
Oh the door that closes tightly
C majorC               G+G
Is the door that can't swing wide
   A minorAm   FF   G+G      C majorC
Oh no, Oh no but expecting to collide

C majorC            FF
For a minute I let my guard down
            C majorC
Not afraid to be found out
     FF
Completely forgotten
          C majorC
What our fears were all about
   A minorAm   FF      G+G        C majorC
Oh no, Oh no there's no need to be without

A minorAm    E minorEm         FF   G+G
There's a chance and I will take it
A minorAm  C majorC        FF
This desire I can't give
A minorAm    E minorEm         FF   G+G
Take my heart please don't break it
A minorAm   C majorC       FF
I will crawl to your foothill

C majorC            FF
I'm frightened but I'm coming
C majorC            G+G
Please baby please lay still

  A minorAm   FF   G+G       C majorC
Oh no, oh no not coming for the kill
Oh no, oh no not coming for the kill
Oh no, oh no not coming for the kill


THE END!
