The Ides

[F]I always said she was a runner,
And running through the fields,
[Am]I put a gun, I put a gun to her,
With the force she came to kneel,
[F]And as she screams and in her own blood,
I said sympathy for you,
[Am]I'll never have, I'll never have none,
Its time you told the truth,
[F]And I left the gun beside her,
And running in the nights,
[Am]I run for land, I ran for safety,
For new places and new sight,
[F]Always said she was a runner
And I thought I knew her well.
[Am]I never thought I was a runner,
and I thought I knew her well.

[Bb]You should have died that very night,
[F]Good job for you I wasn't born a killer,
[Bb]you took my life, and I took my flight,
[F]Good job for you I wasn't born a killer.

[F] [Am]
[F]I always knew her as a baker,
But something I knew not,
[Am]is That when I tried to take her,
There was something Ides forgot,
[F]For I knew I couldn't keep her,
And running out of time,
[Am]I tried so hard, I tried to cheat her,
She was a running in her prime,
[F]So I thought about my choices,
And chose to drop the gun,
[Am]And amongst the screaming voices,
Something told me I should run.
[F]I never thought I was a runner,
and I thought I knew her well.
[Am]I never thought I was a runner,
and I thought I knew her well.

[C]There is so much to remember,
But there is more to [F]forget,
[C]I isn't seen you since December,
I'm surprised we have[F]n't met,
[C]and In the Depths of the Silly Isles,
I heard you reside,  [F]
[C]and in the depths of my mind,
[F]I can still see your eyes
