  F#                C# 
When you need to smile 

               Ab        Bbm 
But you can't afford it 

          F#    C# 
Go on point it out 

             Ab        Bbm 
I'm gonna steal it 

            F#               C#               Ab       Bbm 
When the floor is more familiar than the ceiling 

          F#              C# 
I will break in late at night 

                         Ab     Bbm 
Shake up how you're feeling 




            F# C# 
I'll never stop 

     Ab                Bbm 
Breaking the law for you 

           F#  C# 
I'll never stop 

Ab                    Bbm 
Helping to pull you through 

             F#                    C# 
Whatever it takes to get what you need 

             Ab 
Ignore the alarm 

             Bbm 
Ignore the police 

           F#  C# 
I'll never stop 

      Ab            Bbm 
Breaking the law for you 

(verse 2) 
When you're taking steps 
But need to go faster 
We can speed through streets 
So the shadows can't catch ya 
When the corridors and all the stairs are making you tired 
I will come for you 
Set the building on fire 


I'll never stop 
Breaking the law for you 
I'll never stop 
Helping to pull you through 
Whatever it takes ti get what you need 
Ignore the alarm 
Ignore the police 
I'll never stop 
Breaking the law for you
