Before the Dmphone hits the receiver You're C/Dhalfway to the door The voice said 'Bb/Dget out while you can, There's just ten Gmminutes, nothing Cmore' Time for Dmonly the essentials Better C/Dgather them and run The false Bb/Dname inside the passport, The Gmgold bars and the Cgun
BRIDGE
And once aGm7gain they've come out of the Am7past And though your Bbmind is cool your heart is beating Cfast You've been A/C#through it all before Each time you Dmwish a little Bdimmore that you could A/C#ask

It's a Dmlong and twisting journey From the C/Dsweeping northern plains To the Bb/Doutcrops of the jungle Bowed beGmneath the tropic Crains In the Dmcustoms hall the officer C/DTakes you to one side And his Bb/Deyes reveal no feeling As you Gmhand over the Cbribe
BRIDGE
And once aGm7gain you've bought a little Am7time And once aBbgain you're fading out of Csight Still the A/C#fox is growing older As he Dmcalls over his Bdimshoulder to the A/C#night:

FHere, come over Fmaj7here Beneath a F/Ebsympathetic moon We'll sit and Bb/Dtalk over old Bbm/Dbtimes without a Ffear Another Fmaj7beer, from the F/Ebcafes of the night The tumbling Bb/Drhythms of guiBbm/Dbtars ring loud and clear

One by Dmone they've nailed the others But you C/Dalways got away What it Bb/Dis that keeps you just that step ahead Gm No one can Csay In Dmone last raid the agents Of the C/Ddawn break down the door Of a Bb/Dhouse where you were standing Maybe Gmjust an hour beCfore
BRIDGE
And still the Gm7thread continues to unAm7wind You take the Bbhidden roads that only you can Cfind And should they A/C#come upon your tracks There's just a Dmquestion hanging Bdimback you left beA/C#hind
