I was caught in the crossfire of a silent scream
Where one man’s nightmare is another man’s dream
A7 Em7
Pull the cover up high – and pray for the mornin’ light
C D Em7
Cause you’re livin’ alone – in the heat of the night
Met a man with a message from the other side
Couldn’t take the pressure – had to leave it behind
He said it’s up to you
You can run or you can fight (Ya that’s right)
Better leave it alone – in the heat of the night
Припев:
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
C
Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down
D Em7
Don’t look back don’t ever turn around
Had to pay the piper to call the tune
Said he’d be back someday – said he’d be back real soon
Pull the shades down low – you’ll know when the time is right
When you’re lyin’ alone in the heat of the night
Припев
