Am                  F                     C            G
He climbed into the belly of the great white bear
Am                  F                   
It's very sticky and it smells a little fishy
     C                          G
But no one will look for him there
Am                  F                                C            G
He took a moment to pick his thoughts and make them clear

Am                  F
Oh, what a day it's been
C                           G
Oh, what a terrible state he's in (x2)

Am                  F                     C            G
Her eyes are wired, there's a hat over her thick black hair
Am                          
They're racing through the snow
F                       
Their sweaty hands keep slipping
C                    G
But they're almost there
Am                  F                     C            G
Her father's shotgun ringing out now through the cold night air

Am                      F
Oh, what a fix they're in
C                     G
Oh, what a terrible sin
Am                      F
Oh, what a fix they're in
C                          G
Oh, what a terrible sinister game
Am              F
The hunter did play
C                 G
To give them the hope 
Am                      F
That they could get away
C                G
When biding his time
Am                      F
He did wait down the line
C           G
To bring a disaster
Am                      F
On their youthful dreams of escape

Am                   F          C         G
Oh what a day it's been
Am                   F          C         G
Oh what a day it's been

F              C                  G          Am        
Run, there's a bullet in your back
F              C                        G          Am  
Run, run, there's a bullet in your back
F              C                             
Run, run, run, there's a bullet in your back
G                               Am
But I wouldn't take it back, I wouldn't take it back
 F              C 
Run, run, run, there's a bullet in your back

But I wouldn't take it back, I wouldn't take it back
F              C 
Run, run, run, there's a bullet in your back
G                               Am
But I wouldn't take it back, I wouldn't take it back
F                           C 
Run, run, run there's a bullet in your back
  G                       Am
And I want to take it back

Am               F
I want to, want to
C                G
I want to, want you
Am                F
I want you, want you
C                 G                       Am
I want you, want you, want you, want you back
