[E] Breathless drive on a [D] downtown street.
[E] Motivated ride on a [D] midday heat.
[G] The dust that hung from the dead [D] following run.
It's [A] to burn our eyes.
[E] Oh, yes, here we walk on a wild, wild side [D] of life.
And [E] our movements traced by a stranger close [D] by your side.
[G] And in the shadows of a promise, you can [D] take my hand
and show me a way to [A] understand.
So [E] if you think you know how [D] to love me,
and [E] you think you know what [D] I need,
and [E] if you really, really [D] want me to stay,
[A] you've got to leave away.
Yes, [Em] if you think you know how [D] to love me,
and [Em] you think you can stand by [D] me,
and if [Em] you really, really [D] want me to stay,
[A] you've got to leave [D] away.
[E] Breathless night in a [D] nameless town.
Then [E] we moved out of sight with a silent [D] sound.
[G] A beachside well with [D] waves, that's where we slept.
Knowing [A] we'd be safe.
Now you [E] may think you can walk on a wild, wild side [D] with me.
But there's [E] a lot I could learn, a lot that I've yet [D] to see.
[G] You know you've got my life in [D] your hands.
It's up to you to make [A] me understand.
So [E] if you think you know how [D] to love me,
