[D] [E]
But it just turned out to be a [Bm] place to [C] hide.
[D] [Em]
[E] And baby, that town treated you [Em] so unfair.
[C] [D]
[E] [Em] So give me your hand and I'll go and smoke, baby.
[A] We'll never back down, the bomb won't [B] explode.

[D] [E] There's a gypsy's song, your [Bm] face in [C] my eyes.

I've been waiting for you to see through my [C] disguise.
[D] [Em] So give me your hand and we'll go and [A] smoke, baby.
We'll never back down, the bomb won't explode.
