Well it was alright at midnight and you fell out at three  
     C                                  G   
So I made you warm and stoked the dying fire  
        C                  Em               F              
When it all came down this morning you were lying next to me  
    C         G       F            
How sweet the wine of desire  
        C            Em         F        G     C 
Well we cheated on a friend and cheaters never win  
       Am                 Dm            G     
Oh the truth I know would be a small relief  
        C            Em 
I could never be the one to say  
    F                     
Her best friend took you down 
      C          Am    C                   Am 
Gonna run in the night hide when ever it's light  
      C          G            Bb F           
Gonna run in the night like a thief   
              C            Em         F                
Just ain't no use think it over I was blind but now I see  
     C                                           G 
Well she's coming back and I know just what I'll do  
      C                       Em             Fmaj7                  
If it comes right down to you leaving her or staying here with me  
       C         G      F 
How sweet the memory of you 
        C            Em            F            G      Am  Em F Bb 
Well we cheated on a friend and it looks like I lose again   
        C            Em 
I could never be the one to say  
     F                     
Her best friend took you down 
    C                 Am    C                    Am 
I'd rather run in the night hide when ever it's light  
      C          G            Bb F         C 
Gonna run in the night like a thief   
 
SOLO 
       F            Dm    F                    Dm 
Like a thief in the night hide when ever it's light  
      F          C            Bb   F G      Am Em  Fmaj7  
Gonna run in the night like a thief
