[Em]I saw the light on the night that I passed by her [B7]window
[Em]I saw the flickering shadows of love on her [B7]blind

[Em]But I was lost like a [B7]slave... that no man could [Em]free [B7]
[Em]At break of day when that man drove away I was [B7]waiting
[Em]I crossed the street to her house and she opened the [B7]door
[E]She... [E7]stood... there [Am]laughing
Then [Em]I felt the knife in my [B7]hand and she laughed no
