Out  on the street,  I'm stalking  the night
I  can hear my heavy breathing.
Paid  for the kill  but it doesn't  seem right
Something  there I can't believe in.
Voices  are calling  from inside  my head
I  can hear them, I  can hear them.
Vanishing memories  of things  that were said
They  can't try to hurt me now.
 But a shot  in the dark
one step away from  you
 Just a shot  in the dark
always creeping up on  you
 Alright.
Taught  by the powers  that preach  over me
I  can hear their empty reason
 2
 I wouldn't listen I learned how to fight
I  opened up my mind to treason
But  just like the wounded  and when  it's too late
They'll remember, they'll surrender
Never  a care  for that people  who hate
Underestimate  me now
 But a shot  in the dark
one step away from  you
 Just a shot  in the dark
always creeping up on  you
 Alright.
But  just like the wounded  and when  it's too late
They'll remember, they'll surrender
Never  a care  for the people  who hate
Underestimate  me now
 But a shot  in the dark
one step away from  you
 Just a shot  in the dark
always creeping up on  you
 Alright.
Just  a shot in  the dark
Just  a shot in the dark
Just  a shot in  the dark
Just  a shot in the dark
 And that's it! One thing though, in the verses you can play it in a more
 complex way, but the chord names were like wtf, so I didn't want to include
 it, anyways, it goes like this:
 Extra chords:
/  = X20032
 G6addC/[B] = X20020
/  = XX0000
Out  on the street,  I'm stalking  the night
 I can hear  my hea  - vy breathing.
Paid  for the kill  but it doesn't  seem right
 Something there I can't believe  in.
 And just do the same with the second verse, and there you go.
