Runners In The Night

	  		

Em  C  G  C  G  C  G  Am  Em 

Em        C              G 
I saw you rushing to the fire 
C               G            Am               Em 
Balanced on the bones with a darkness in your eyes 
Em                C           G 
Our thoughts were crippled by desire 
C           G         Am               Em                    
Suddenly gestalt just colliding in the light 
Em      C                       G 
I know, concentric rings in the bones aside, 
      Am     Em 
We've surely grown up 
Em      C           G                    Am 
I know, the lead to hands that wring and dry your eyes  
C               Em 
Before it's too much 

Em                C           G 
Our thoughts were wicked by design 
C               G          Am              Em                
If we could get home, then we could get us right 
Em             C            G 
I'll watch you wither up in time 
     C            G               Am           Em 
Then let you grow alone, just colliding in the light 

C 
Though in time 
                       G 
We were hanging on the subtlest sign 
               Am 
Waiting on the final cry 
                   D 
Just ringing out a sign 
                     C                              Em 
But tonight we're surprised if we're runners in the night 

Em  C  G  C  G  Am  Em 
Em  C  G  C  G  Am  Em 

Em      C                       G     
I know, concentric rings in the bones don't lie 
      Am           Em 
We've surely grown up 
Em      C                G                   Am 
I know, these hands that wring they're gonna dry your eyes 
C              Em 
Before we give enough 

C 
Though in time 
                       G 
We were hanging on the subtle sign 
               Am 
Waiting on the final cry 
                   G 
But when you gonna dry your eyes 
                       C 
We were holding up the keep and more 
                     G 
After hanging on the final chord  
                        Am 
"It'll be alright," his voice informed 
                   D 
Just ringing out a sign 
                         C 
But tonight, well you're mine, 
                         Em 
And we're runners in the night 

Em  C  G  C  G  Am  Em 
Em  C  G  C  G  Am  Em 

          C 
After the night and more 
                     G 
After hanging on the final chord 
                       Am 
"It'll be alright," he screamed and more 
                   D 
Just ringing out a sign 
                         C 
But tonight, well you're mine, 
                         Em 
And we're runners in the night 

Em  C  G  C  G  Am  Em 
Em  C  G  C  G  Am  Em
