[E] [A] [Bm] [G]
[A] [Bm] She [E] was a dancer, [D] but not a dancer.
[A]
She was a [G] samurai.
[A] [B] She made electric shadow [D] on our fingertips.
[A]
None of us could reach [E] that high.
[Bm] She came on like a teaser.
[D] I had to duck to leave her.
[A]
I saw her little [G] paradise.
[A] [Bm] The apple's in my pocket, [D] and we're losing it.
The rocket, [A] she never knew the reason [Bm] why.
[A] [G]
I [E] can't deny it, with that smile [A] on her face.
[G]
Oh, [Em] it's not the kill, [D] it's the [A] thrill of the chase.

[A] [B]
You know the [Bm] score.
[E] [A] And now [Bm] you're [G] learning.
[A] How [E] it's knocking at your back door.
[B] Nancy was [G] a dancer.
[D] To get into her pants, [A] we had to be the [G] aristocracy.
[A]
[Bm] Never met, she told [D] me, that city pub [A]
was something wrong [E] with me.
[Bm] So I put her on the hit list, [D] and I call her Cunningly.
[A] She mastered [G] many [A] jobs.
[Bm] I can't leave her, [D] my arms bend through her waist.
[A] Suddenly she feels [Bm] so [A] shy.
[G] I [Em] can't deny it, with [D] that smile [Em] on [A] her face.
[G] Oh, it's [Em] not the kill, [D] it's the [A] thrill [D] of [A] the chase.
Feel it.
[Bm] [E] [A]
Feel [Bm] it [G] coming.

[E] [A] You know it's no [Bm] good [G] running.
[A] [Bm] No, it's not against the law.
[E] [A]
Run, [Bm] just run, [G] return.
[A] [Bm]
Now you know the [E] score.
[A] And [Bm] now you're [G] learning.
[A] How [E] it's knocking at your back door.
