VERSE 1:
LA SOL
I can hear the soft breathing of the girl that I love,
LAm MI
As she lies here beside me asleep with the night.
LA SOL
Her hair in a fine mist floats on my pillow,
LAm RE/FA# MI7
Reflecting the glow of the winter moonlight.
CHORUS
DO LAm
But I've got to creep down the alleyway,
SOL
Fly down the highway,
LAm DO LAm FA MI9
Before they come to catch me I'll be gone.
SOL LAm LAm/SOL FA MI LAm LAm/SOL FA MI
Somewhere they can't find me.
VERSE 2:
Oh baby, you don't know what I've done,
I've committed a crime, I've broken the law.
While you were here sleeping and just dreaming of me,
I held up and robbed a liquor store.
CHORUS
VERSE 3:
Oh my life seems unreal, my crime an illusion,
A scene badly written in which I must play.
And though it puts me uptight to leave you,
I know it's not right to leave you,
When morning is just a few hours away.
CHORUS
OUTRO:
LAm LAm/SOL FA MI
Am Am/G F E (repeat and fade)
