I work in the dead of night, when the roads are quiet...
And 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 step on through
Woah, oah... You get in, you get done and then you gone
&8232; [Bm]
You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone&8232;
Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again&8232;
But the sun came up again&8232;
&8232;
Enter the morning light, to find the day is burning the curtains and the wine
&8232;In a[A] little white room
&8232;Th[Bm]ough I'm not alone, her [G]head is heavy on me, she's sleeping[Bm] like a child

What could I do
Play Pre-Chorus Again
&8232; I was a killer, [G]was the best they[A]'d ever seen
&8232; I'd steal your heart bef[G]ore you ever [A]heard a thing
* *&8232;
I'm an assassin and I had a job to do
* *&8232;
Little did I know that girl was an assassin too
&8232;Bridge
&8232; Sudde[G]nly I'm in over [Bm]my head and I can[A] hardly breathe
&8232;
Suddenly I'm floating over her bed and I feel everything
&8232; Suddenly[G] I know exactly[Bm] what I did, but I cant [A]move a thing
And suddenly I know exactly what I've done,
and what it's gonna mean to me, mean to me&8232;

I'm gooooooooone, I'm gooooooooone, I'm gooooooooone...
Play Chorus Again&8232;
* *&8232;
She's an assassin-n-n-n-n (3 times)
&8232;She's an assassin and she had a job to do
