Intro: Am E E Am
Verse:
Am E
Look out, this thing is gonna blow
Am
I heard it from the people in the know
E
There's trouble in the tenements below
Am
There's fire where the flowers used to grow
Chorus:
C G Am
I'm never going back
C
I'm running from the sun
F
Bullets at my heels
C
The Devil's got a gun
C G Am
I'm never going home
C
I'll be the only one
F
With daylight on my tail
C
And Heaven on the run
Verse:
Am E
Rain is jumping up into the clouds
Am
A girl has ceased to make her father proud
E
Lovers wrapped up in cellophane
Am
The bitter fruit has fallen from its prey
Chorus
Bridge:
C G
Help me, I know not who I see
Dm C
I'm a stranger to the face looking back at me
F C G
When a company of sisters is just like any mystery to me
C G
Hold me, I know not who I am
Dm C
If I'm a woman, you're a creature, not a man
F C G
The eyes of a lover- they look like any other to me
Verse:
Am E
It's down to the second hand
Am
The tick-tock is more than you can stand
E
The grinders and the wheels they never see
Am (Strum once)
We're fighting to the bottom of the deep
Chorus (Repeat last two lines)
