G                C 
We can fight our desires 
Em                       Am 
But when we start making fires 
G                C 
We get ever so hot 
Em                    Am 
Whether we like it or not. 

G                C 
They say we can love who we trust 
 Em                       Am 
 But what is love without lust 
 G                C 
 Two hearts with accurate devotions 
 Em                        Am 
 What are feelings without emotions. 

Em                   C 
I’m going in for the kill 
                    G 
 I’m doing it for a thrill 
                   Am 
 I’m hoping you’ll understand 
 Em               C 
 Now let go of my hand. 

G                C 
I hang my hopes out on the line 
 Em                            Am 
 Will they be ready for you in time 
 G                C 
 If you leave them out too long 
 Em                            Am 
 Will they be withered by the sun 
 G                C 
 Full stops and exclamation marks 
Em                         Am  
My words stumble before I start. 

E *                  Cmaj9 * 
How far can you bend emotion? 
 E *                       Cmaj9 * 
 Can this bridge cross the ocean? 

Em                   C 
I’m going in for the kill 
                    G 
 I’m doing it for a thrill 
                   Am 
 I’m hoping you’ll understand 
 Em               C 
 Now let go of my hand. 

E *                 Fm * 
Don’t let go of my hand. 
 F *               Fm * 
 Now let go of my hand.
