capo on 4rd fret
[G]Throw the [D]knife into the st[Em]ream
Run aw[D]ay across the fi[C]elds
Leave me lying where I[D] fell
Rivers running out o[G]f me
[G]Meet my Je[D]nny in the lane[Em]
Take a[D] car and run awa[C]y
Get as far as you ca[D]n get
Before the new day
[Am]Your heart beats q[G]uick and [D]strong
[Am]Your mind pores [G]over it [D]all
[Am]Don't worry becau[G]se no one s[D]aw me f[C]all
[G]Sit inside[D] a little chef[Em]
Look a[D]round but not at[C] her
See my kisses on her l[D]ips
See my fingers in he[G]r hair
[G]Think of t[D]his against your [Em]will
See th[D]e knife edge sli[C]pping in
See the questions in m[D]y eyes
As I ask them
(spoken - no chords)
I went so quick it makes you shudder that I'm gone
Are we so brittle has your soul turned into stone
And though you loved me I'm not Jenny in the night
Some decisions don't thread back to being right
[Am]Your head blurs qu[G]ickly ton[D]ight
[Am]Your edges diffu[G]se in th[D]e light
[Am]Don't tell me that your thr[G]oat is gett[D]ing tig[C]ht
[G]Change you[D]r name and find a[Em] job
Marry [D]Jenny in the spr[C]ing
Buy a dog and call him[D] Pete
Push the children on[G] the swings
[G]Think abou[D]t me now and then[Em]
Try to[D] find a peaceful[C] space
Count the days as they[D] go by
Count the lines upon[G] your face
[Am]Your heart beats q[G]uick and [D]strong
[Am]Your mind pores [G]over it [D]all
[Am]Don't worry becau[G]se no one s[D]aw me f[C]all
[G]Throw the [D]knife into the st[Em]ream
Run aw[D]ay across the fi[C]elds
Leave me lying where I[D] fell
