Em                  C 
Listen closely, May 
     Em               C       D 
This phone may not be safe 
              C 
I have been betrayed 
    D           C 
And I must leave today 


Em              C 
Where, I cannot say 
Em             C 
Somewhere far away 
D            C 
Maybe to the States 
      D           C 
Where no one knows my face
