Verse 1
Am 
D 
Dm 
E 
Am 
The flashing of an eyelid,
D 
E 
the twinkle of an eye
Am 
Was all it took to let me know
D 
E 
that you were never shy
Am 
C 
You told me you were on the run
Am 
from hellhounds on your trail
Dm 
E 
I told you I was going off the rails
Am 
C 
And that was all the introduc
D 
E 
tion that we knew
Am 
No holding hands, no chaperones,
Dm 
no restaurant for two
E 
C 
Am 
An d with a flourish, you took me by the hand
Dm 
E 
and pushed my weary head into the sand
Am 
Dm 
And though I'm tired of the chase,
Am 
F 
take a marathon and squeeze it to a hundred meter race
E 
Am 
Dm 
Cause I know if it's you I'm gonna miss,
Am 
F 
E 
reduce it to a kiss, reduce it to a kiss
Am 
Dm 
E 
And we dined on bread and a beer
Am 
Dm 
Asking me  if I was gonna run away in fear
E 
C 
E 
Am 
I said that fear was the
furthest from my mind
Dm 
E 
You might have thought it was a lie
C 
Bm 
E 
We faded to black like they do in a film
Am 
My foot still on the floor,
Dm 
E 
your contact still in
C 
Am 
Like a restaurant that serves you
F 
prepared and ready meals
Dm 
E 
We  both agreed it was surreal
Am 
Dm 
And though I'm tired of the chase
Am 
Take a marathon and squeeze a two to
F 
E 
a hundred meter race
Am 
Dm 
Cause I know if it's you I'm gonna miss
Am 
F 
E 
Reduce it to a kiss, reduce it to a kiss
Am 
D 
Bm 
D 
E 
And in the morning you told me I was free
Am 
And I walked home
D 
E 
with yellow bruises on my feet
C 
Am 
Dm 
I  must admit it was a way to pass the time,
E 
a perfect way to draw a line.
Am 
Dm 
And though I'm tired of the chase,
Am 
F 
E 
take a marathon and squeeze it to a hundred meter race.
Am 
Dm 
Cause I know that if it's you I'm gonna miss,
Am 
F 
reduce it to a kiss, reduce it to a kiss.
