Lyrics

Ev ’ry breath you take,

ev ’ry bond you break, ev ’ry step you take, I’ll be watch ing you.

Ev ’ry (D)sin gle (G)day,

ev ’ry word you (Em)say,

ev ’ry game you play, ev ’ry night you stay, I’ll be watch ing you.

Oh, can’t you (C)see

you be long to (G)me.

How my poor heart (A)aches

with ev ’ry step you (D)take.

Ev ’ry move you (G)make,

ev ’ry vow you (Em)break,

ev ’ry smile you fake, ev ’ry claim you stake, I’ll be watch ing you.

Since you’ve gone, I been lost with out a trace, I dream at night I can on ly see your face.

I look a round but it’s you I can’t re place.

I feel so cold and I long for your em brace.

I keep cry ing ba by, ba by, please.

Oh, can’t you Ev ’ry move you make, ev ’ry step you take, I’ll be watch ing you.

I’ll be (D7)watch ing (G)you.
