[C]
There's trouble on the street tonight, I can feel it in my bones.
I had premonition that he should not go alone.
I knew the gun was loaded, but I didn't think he'd kill.
Everything exploded and the blood began to spill.
[F] So baby, here's your ticket, a suitcase in your hand.

[C] You be cool for 20 hours and I'll pay you 20 grand.
[Bb] [G] I'm sorry it went down like this, someone [C] had to lose.
