C Em F
Well it was alright at midnight and you fell out at three
C G
So I made you warm and stoked the dying fire
C Em F
When it all came down this morning you were lying next to me
C G F
How sweet the wine of desire
C Em F G C
Well we cheated on a friend and cheaters never win
Am Dm G
Oh the truth I know would be a small relief
C Em
I could never be the one to say
F
Her best friend took you down
C Am C Am
Gonna run in the night hide when ever it's light
C G Bb F
Gonna run in the night like a thief
C Em F
Just ain't no use think it over I was blind but now I see
C G
Well she's coming back and I know just what I'll do
C Em Fmaj7
If it comes right down to you leaving her or staying here with me
C G F
How sweet the memory of you
C Em F G Am Em F Bb
Well we cheated on a friend and it looks like I lose again
C Em
I could never be the one to say
F
Her best friend took you down
C Am C Am
I'd rather run in the night hide when ever it's light
C G Bb F C
Gonna run in the night like a thief
SOLO
F Dm F Dm
Like a thief in the night hide when ever it's light
F C Bb F G Am Em Fmaj7
Gonna run in the night like a thief
