Intro - Bm - G - Bm - A
Verse 1
Bm G
I work in the dead of night, when the roads are quiet...
Bm A
And no one is around, to track my moves
Bm G
Racing the yellow lights, to find the gate is open...
Bm A
She's waiting in the room, I just step on through
Pre-Chorus
Bm G Bm
Woah, oah... You get in, you get done and then you gone
G
Bm
You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone
G Bm
Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again
A
But the sun came up again
Bm - G - Bm - A
Verse 2
Bm G Bm
Enter the morning light, to find the day is burning the curtains and the wine
A
In a little white room
Bm G Bm
Though I'm not alone, her head is heavy on me, she's sleeping like a child
A
What could I do
Play Pre-Chorus Again
Chorus
Bm G* A*
I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen
Bm G* A*
I'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thing
Bm G* A*
I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
Bm G* A*
Little did I know that girl was an assassin too
Bridge
Bm G Bm A
Suddenly I'm in over my head and I can hardly breathe
Bm G Bm A
Suddenly I'm floating over her bed and I feel everything
Bm G Bm A
Suddenly I know exactly what I did, but I can�t move a thing
Bm G Bm
And suddenly I know exactly what I've done,
A
and what it's gonna mean to me, mean to me
Bm G Bm A
I'm gooooooooone, I'm gooooooooone, I'm gooooooooone...
Play Chorus Again
Bm G* A*
She's an assassin-n-n-n-n (3 times)
She's an assassin and she had a job to do
