Introduction:
G5/E A5/E G5/E
I was caught in the crossfire
E5 G5/E
of a silent scream
A5/E G5/E
Where one man's nightmare
E5 G5/A
is another man's dream
A5 G5/A
Pull the cover up high
A5 G5/E A5 G5/EE5,
and pray for the mornin' light
C9
Cause you're livin' alone
D G5/E A5 G5/EE5,
in the heat of the night
Met a man with a message
G5/E E5 G
In the heat of the night
D/F#
they'll be comin' around
Em
They'll be lookin' for answers
C
they'll be chasin' you down
G D
In the heat of the night
C9
(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down?
D
Don't look back don't ever turn around)
