We met out on open streets 
                     Em 
When we had no place to go 
  G 
I remember how my heart beat 
                 Am7 
When you said "I love you so" 
     C 
Then little by little 
                                    Em                  Am 
We choked out all the life that out love could hold oh, no 

  
                    C 
It's like we held a noose 
                 Em 
And baby without check 
                        C       D      C   G 
We pulled until it grew tighter around our necks 
                         C 
Each one waiting for the other 
               Em 
Darling to say when 
                  C       D              G        G4 G | G G4 G | Em Em6 Em | Em Em6 Em 
Well baby you can meet me tonight on the loose end 



We didn't count tomorrows 

                                  Em 
We took what we could and baby we ran 
             G 
There was no time for sorrow 
                           Am7 
Every place we went I held your hand 
             C 
And when the night closed in 
                                     Em              Am 
I was sure your kisses told me all I had to know oh, no 


                    C 
It's like we held a noose 
                 Em 
And baby without check 
                        C       D      C   G 
We pulled until it grew tighter around our necks 
                         C 
Each one waiting for the other 


               Em 
Darling to say when 
                  C       D              G        G4 G | G G4 G 
Well baby you can meet me tonight on the loose end

    G 
Our love has fallen around us 
                Em 
Like we said it never could 
          G 
We saw it happen to all the others 
             Am7 
But to us it never would 
               C 
Well how could something so bad, darling 
                             Em              Am 
Come from something that was so good I don't know 


  

                    C 
It's like we held a noose 
                 Em 
And baby without check 
                        C       D      C   G 
We pulled until it grew tighter around our necks 
                        C 
Each one waiting for the other 
               Em 
Darling to say when 
                  C       D              G        G4 G | 
Well baby you can meet me tonight on the loose end
