No Chicane

Lyrics and Chords

G6                                             Bmin7           C add9

The fire in your eyes is not for me anymore

G6                                             Bmin7           C add9

The fire in your eyes is not for me

G6

Do you dream of your escape?

Bmin7                     C add9

What’s been kindling in my place?

G6

You can’t hide a thing

G6                             Bmin7      C add9

Your eyes hold no chicane

Bmin7                                                     G

I was there in the folds of your dress

Bmin7                                       G

Brushing against your legs

Amin                                              Emin

First it had an acid sting, then it numbed me like cocaine

Amin                                                                D

It’s just one of those things, fear gives you wings

G6                                             Bmin7           C add9

The fire in your eyes is not for me anymore

G6                                             Bmin7           C add9

The fire in your eyes is not for me

G6

Do you dream of your escape?

Bmin7                     C add9

What’s been kindling in my place?

G6

You can’t hide a thing

G6                             Bmin7      C add9

Your eyes hold no chicane

Bmin7                                                     G

I was there in the back of your car

Bmin7                                                     G

Reaching out for the stars

Amin                                                                    Emin

Now it hurts me when you laugh, it hurts me when you smile

Amin                                                                    D

Take my hand my archangel, lead me down the crooked mile

Bmin7                                                     G

To survive, you’ve got to have something to sell

Bmin7                                                     G

Maybe dream of somebody else

Amin                                                                    Emin

Close your eyes now baby, put your tongue between your lips

Amin                                                                    D

And we’ll drive into the darkness of yesterday’s kiss

G

Keep running baby
Keep running baby

Eb

I know now, know your desire..

Emin7

Keep it burning baby
Keep it burning baby

Cmin 7                          Bmin7

I’ll take it down, down to the wire

G

Keep running baby
Keep running baby

Eb

There’s a laughing crow in the virgin sky

Emin7

Keep it burning baby
Keep it burning baby

Cmin 7                          Bmin7

He knows you and I, we’re a lie..

SOLO ; Chorus Chords
G6                                             Bmin7           C add9

G6                                             Bmin7           C add9

The fire in your eyes is not for me

G6                                             Bmin7           C add9

What do you dream?

What are you thinking when you wake?

You can’t hide a thing

Your eyes hold no chicane

G

Keep running baby
Keep running baby

Eb

I know now, I know now

Emin7

Keep it burning baby
Keep it burning baby

I’ll take it down, down to the wire

G

Keep running baby
Keep running baby

Eb

You make me feel so strange

Keep it burning baby
Keep it burning baby

G6              Bmin7  C maj7

Your eyes hold no chicane

Lyrics

The fire in your eyes is not for me anymore
The fire in your eyes is not for me
Do you dream of your escape?
What’s been kindling in my place?
You can’t hide a thing
Your eyes hold no chicane

I was there in the folds of your dress
Brushing against your legs
First it had an acid sting, then it numbed me like cocaine
It’s just one of those things, fear gives you wings

The fire in your eyes is not for me anymore
The fire in your eyes is not for me
Do you dream of your escape?
What’s been kindling in my place?
You can’t hide a thing
Your eyes hold no chicane

I was there in the back of your car
Reaching out for the stars
Now it hurts me when you laugh, it hurts me when you smile
Take my hand my archangel, lead me down the crooked mile
To survive, you’ve got to have something to sell
Maybe dream of somebody else
Close your eyes now baby, put your tongue between your lips
And we’ll drive into the darkness of yesterday’s kiss

Keep running baby
Keep running baby
I know now, know your desire..
Keep it burning baby
Keep it burning baby
I’ll take it down, down to the wire
Keep running baby
Keep running baby
Thers a laughing crow in the virgin sky
Keep it burning baby
Keep it burning baby
He knows you and I, we’re a lie..

The fire in your eyes is not for me anymore
The fire in your eyes is not for me
What do you dream?
What are you thinking when you wake?
You can’t hide a thing

Your eyes hold no chicane

Keep running baby
Keep running baby
I know now, I know now
Keep it burning baby
Keep it burning baby
I’ll take it down, down to the wire
Keep running baby
Keep running baby
You make me feel so strange
Keep it burning baby
Keep it burning baby

Your eyes hold no chicane
