VERSE ONE:
C G
When your feathers are soaked and your eyes are too bloody to see,
C G
and you pulled every punch that you had but there's one that you need,
D Em
then you've waited too long, there's a hole in your heart,
C D C
and all you've become is emotionally overrun.
[Refrão] G D C D G D C D
Wishing wells were made to echo a dime, the consequences are you keep on relying,
Em D C G
you've become a run and hide refugee, baby I'm a cop,
D C
stop, put up your hands and surrender to me.
VERSE TWO:
 
You're gonna get hooked if there's anything left I can do,
you've already disarmed it's your lasting alarm I pursue,
you can loosen those fists,c'mon blow me a kiss,
you've been roughed up enough to deserve some relief from your troubles,
so I'm coming in.
 
REPEAT CHORUS
 
BRIDGE:
F C
Otherwise, I would never tell you what to do despite,
G D
any indecision though I know I'm right, arguing was always my forte,
Am
and one thing I can say is I won't tell you lies,
F
or treat you like a rental car like other guys,
C
and if you think I'm crazy find an alibi,
G D
cause you will need some evidence to show.
 
REPEAT CHORUS
 
Baby I'm a cop, stop, put up your hands and surrender to me
