VERSE:
I work in the d[Gsus2/B]ead of night
When the r[Gsus2]oads are quiet
No one[Bm(add9)] is around
To trac[A]k [(add9)]my moves
Racing the y[Gsus2/B]ellow lights
To find the [Gsus2]gate is open
Shes waiting i[Bm(add9)]n the room
i just step[A(add9)] on through.
PRE-CHORUS:
O[Gsus/B] whoa whoa whoa whoa... O[Bm(add9)] whoa who[A(add9)]a whoa whoa
[Gsus/B] You get[Bm(add9)] in, You get don[A(add9)]e, and then you get [Gsus/B]gone
You never[Bm(add9)] leave a trace or[A(add9)] show your face you get[Gsus/B] gone
You should hav[Bm(add9)]e turned around an[A(add9)]d left before the [G(add9)]sun came up again
But the sun [A(add9)]came up again
CHORUS:
