Balaclava Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Running off over next door's garden
Be[G]fore the hour is [F]done
It's [Am]more a question of feeling
Than it [G]is a question of [F]fun
The [Am]confidence is the balaclava
I'm [G]sure you'll baffle 'em [F]good
Will the [Am]ending reek of salty cheeks
And [G]runny makeup a[F]lone
Or will [Am]blood run down the face
Of a [G]boy bewildered and [F]scorned?
Or you'll [Am]find yourself in a skirmish
Where you [G]wish you'd never been [F]born
You [Am]tie yourself to the tracks
And there [G]isn't no going [F]back
And it's [Am]wrong, wrong, wrong
But we’ll [G]do it anyway
'cause we [F]love a bit of trouble

[Interlude 1]
[Am][E][Am][F][E]
[Am]Are [E]you[Am][F][E]

[Verse 2]
pulling her from a burning building
Or [G]throwing her to the [F]sharks?
Can [Am]only hope that the ending
is a [G]pleasurable as the [F]start
The [Am]confidence is the balaclava
I'm [G]sure you baffle 'em [F]straight
And it’s [Am]wrong, wrong, wrong
She can [G]hardly wait

[Bridge 1]
That's [Am]right,
he won't let her out [Am]his sight
Now the shaggers per[F]form
And the daggers are [E]drawn
Who's the crooks in [Am]this crime?
That's [Am]right,
he won't let her out [Am]his sight
Now the shaggers per[F]form
And the daggers are [E]drawn

[Interlude 2]
Who's the crooks is this
[Am]Crime?

[G]he won[F]'t let her out his [Am]sight[G][F]
That's [Am]right,
[G]he won't let[F] her out his[Am] sig[G]ht[F]
That's [Am]right,
[G]he won't let[F] her out his[Am] sight
[G]Well, you'll be abl[F]e to boa[Am]st
Of the day of the [G]most
Flawless [F]heist of [Am]all [G]time[F]

[Verse 3]
You [Am]knew that it'd be trouble
Right be[G]fore the very [F]first kiss
[Am]Quiet, unassuming
But you [G]heard that they were the [F]naughtiest
She [Am]pleaded with you to take it off
But [G]you resisted [F]and fought
But [Am]sorry, sweetheart I'd much rather
