Almost Had Me by Lights
Almost Had Me
Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: C#m
[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
G#m C#m E
You were my halogen, guiding me home
G#m C#m E
My only weapon when I was alone
G#m C#m E
You were a big city, one I got lost in
G#m F# B C#m A E
And when you spoke with me, I fell open
C#m A E
I fell open
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m A E
But did you know that cost when you broke your promise? (I wasn't prepared)
C#m A E B
That when your bombs went off they would come down on us
[Chorus]
C#m A E
I was a knife in a gunfight
G#m C#m
And I fought so madly
A G#m
You were a wolf in the daylight, And you almost had me
[Instrumental]
C#m A E G#m
[Tag]
C#m A E G#m
And you almost had me
[Instrumental]
E
[Verse 2]
G#m C#m E
I thought you were showing all your colors
G#m C#m
But you were in sheep's clothing
E
A mind of another
G#m C#m
Can a slave preach freedom?
E G#m F#
Can a captive take hold of what they believe in?
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m A E
But did you know that cost when you broke your promise? (I wasn't prepared)
C#m A E B
That when your bombs went off they would come down on us
[Chorus]
C#m A E
I was a knife in a gunfight
G#m C#m
And I fought so madly
A E
You were a wolf in the daylight
B C#m
And you almost had me
A E
With a blindside
G#m C#m
And it hurt so badly
A E
You were a wolf in the daylight
G#m C#m
And you almost had me
[Bridge]
C#m G#m A
I guess I knew when your heart stop beating, I'd never let you sink your teeth in
C#m E B
I guess I knew when your heart stop beating, I'd never let you sink your teeth in
[Breakdown]
C#m A
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
E G#m
Oh-oh-oh (you almost had me)
C#m A
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
E G#m
Oh-oh-oh (and you almost had me)
C#m A E G#m
I guess I know when your heart stop beating (oh-oh-oh), And you almost had me
C#m A E G#m
I guess I knew when your heart stop beating (oh-oh-oh)
[Chorus]
C#m A E G#m C#m
I was a knife in a gunfight, And I fought so madly
A G#m
You were a wolf in the daylight, And you almost had me
