Lyrics

(I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I.

I.

I.

I.

I.) You stand with your hand on my waist line.

It’s a scene, and we’re out here in plain sight.

I can hear them whis per as they pass by.

It’s a bad sign,

bad sign.

Some thing hap pens when ev ’ry bod y finds out: see the vul tures cir cl ing, dark clouds.

Love’s a frag ile lit tle flame, it could burn out, it could burn out.

’Cause (Am)they got the cag es, (G)they got the box es

and guns.

(Am)They are the hunt ers; (G)we are the fox es,

and we run.

(C)Ba

(G)by,

(Dm)I know plac es we (F)won’t be found, and (C)they’ll

(G)be

(Dm)chas ing their tails try ing to (F)track us down.

’Cause (C)I,

I know plac es we can (C)hide.

I know plac es.

I know plac es.

Lights flash and we’ll run for the fenc es.

Let them say what they want; we won’t hear it.

Loose lips sink ships all the damn time.

Not this time.

(Am)Just grab my hand and (G)don’t ev er drop it,

my love.

(Am)They are the hunt ers; (G)we are the fox es,

and we run.

(C)Ba

(G)by,

(Dm)I know plac es we (F)won’t be found, and (C)they’ll

(G)be

(Dm)chas ing their tails try ing to (F)track us down.

’Cause (C)I,

I know plac es we can (C)hide.

I know plac es.

I know plac es.

Lights flash and we’ll run for the fenc es.

Let them say what they want; we won’t hear it.

Loose lips sink ships all the damn time.

Not this time.

(C)They are the hunt ers; (G)we are the fox es,

and we run.

(C)Just grab my hand and don’t ev er drop it,

my love.

(C)Ba

(G)by,

(Dm)I know plac es we (F)won’t be found, and (C)they’ll

(G)be

(Dm)chas ing their tails try ing to (F)track us down.

’Cause (C)I,

I know plac es we can (C)hide.

I know plac es.

They take their (G)shots but we’re bul let (Dm)proof.

(I know plac es.)

And you know for (G)me it’s al ways (Dm)you.

(I know plac es.)

In the dead of (G)night, your eyes so (Dm)green, (I know plac es.)

and I know for (G)you it’s al ways (Dm)me.

(I know plac es.)

(I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I.)
