[Verse 1]
              Dsus4/E                 Asus4/G
I work in the dead of night, when the roads are quiet
              Badd9               Aadd9
And no one is around, to track my moves
           Dsus4/E                    Asus4/G
Racing the yellow lights, to find the gate is open
                     Badd9                Aadd9
She's waiting in the room, I just step on through
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Dsus4/E      Badd9               Aadd9             Dsus4/E
Woah, oah... You get in, you get done and then you gone
          Badd9             Aadd9                   Dsus4/E
You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone
          Badd9             Aadd9                    Gadd9
Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again
                 Aadd9
But the sun came up again

[Verse 2]

Enter the morning light, to find the day is burning the curtains and the wine
             Aadd9
 In a little white room
            Em7                    Asus4/G                            Badd9
 Though I'm not alone, her head is heavy on me, she's sleeping like a child
           Aadd9
What could I do
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em7          Badd9               Aadd9             Em7
Woah, oah... You get in, you get done and then you gone
          Badd9             Aadd9                   Em7
You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone
          Badd9             Aadd9                    Gadd9
Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again
                 Aadd9
But the sun came up again
 
[Chorus]
Bm  D/F#  Asus4/G  Daug
 
Bm        D/F#            Asus4/G          Em7
  I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen
Bm               D/F#             Asus4/G      Em7
  I'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thing
Bm        D/F#         Asus4/G      Em7
 I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
Bm            D/F#               Asus4/G     Em
 Little did I know that girl was an assassin too
 
[Bridge]
D           G                Bm               A 
  Suddenly I'm in over my head and I can hardly breathe
D                 G                Bm               A 
 Suddenly I'm floating over her bed and I feel everything
D               G               Bm                       A 
  Suddenly I know exactly what I did, but I can’t move a thing
D                  G                   Bm 
 And suddenly I know exactly what I've done,
                           A 
and what it's gonna mean to me, mean to me
 
    D    G    Bm    A 
I'm gooooooooone...

  I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen

  I'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thing

 I'm an assassin and I had a job to do

 Little did I know that girl was an assassin too
 
[Outro]
Bm          D/F#           Asus4/G      Em7
 She's an assassin and
Bm          D/F#           Asus4/G      Em7
 She's an assassin and
Bm          D/F#           Asus4/G      Em7
 She's an assassin and
Bm          D/F#           Asus4/G      Em7
 She's an assassin and she had a job to do
 
Badd9
              I work in the dead of night
When the roads are quiet
No one is around
To track my moves

Racing the yellow lights
To find the gate is open
She's waiting in the room
I just slip on through

You get in
You get done
And then you get gone
You never leave a trace or show your face
You get gone

Should have turned around
And left before the sun came up again
But the sun came up again

Enter the morning light
To find the day is burning the curtains and the wine
In a little white room
No, I'm not alone
Her head is heavy on me
She's sleeping like a child
What could I do?

You get in
You get done
And then you get gone
You never leave a trace or show your face
You get gone

Should have turned around
And left before the sun came up again
But the sun came up again

I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen
I'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thing
I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
Little did I know that girl was an assassin too

Suddenly I'm in over my head and I can hardly breathe
Suddenly I'm floating over her bed and I feel everything
Suddenly I know exactly what I did, but I cannot move a thing
Suddenly I know exactly what I'd done and what it's gonna mean to me, mean to me
I'm gone

I was a killer, was the best they'd ever seen
I'd steal your heart before you ever heard a thing
I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
Little did I know that girl was an assassin too

She's an assassin
She's an assassin
She's an assassin
She's an assassin and she had a job to do
