[Intro]
Am       F
  I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I
Dm       E
  I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I
Am       F        Dm
  I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I,
     E
I-I (I, I)

[Verse 1]
Am                    F
  You stand with your hand
on my waistline
Dm                       E
  It's a scene and we're out
 here in plain sight
Am                F
  I can hear them whisper
             Dm
as we pass by
               E
It's a bad sign, bad sign
Am
  Somethin' happens when
 F
 everybody finds out
Dm                 E
  See the vultures circling,
 dark clouds
Am                        F
  Love's a fragile little flame,
 it could burn out
Dm                  E
  It could burn out

[Pre-Chorus]
       Am
'Cause they got the cages,
 F              Dm E
they got the boxes and guns
Am
They are the hunters,
 F             Dm
we are the foxes and we run

[Chorus]
C G   Dm               F
Baby, I know places we won't
 be found
    C       G  Dm
And they'll be chasing
                       F
their tails tryin' to track
us down
       C G Dm       F
'Cause I,    I know places
        C G  Dm
 we can hide
       F
I know places, I know places

[Verse 2]
Am                       F
  Lights flash and we'll run
for the fences
Dm                       E
  Let them say what they want,
we won't hear it
Am                F
  Loose lips sink ships
              Dm
all the damn time
Not this time

C                   G
(I) They take their shots,
                   Dm
but we're bulletproof
            F
(I know places)
C                        G
(Hide) And you know, for me,
             Dm          F
it's always you (I know places)
C                  G
(I) In the dead of night,
               Dm
your eyes so green
           F
(I know places)
C                      G
(Hide) And I know, for you,
             Dm         F
it's always me
(I know places)
