[Verse 1]

Em                 C
We can fight our desires,
      A5 
ooooo-ooooo,
                         Em
but when we start making fires.

Em                 C
We can't have it so hot,
      A5
ooooo-ooooo,
                      Em
whether we like it or not.

Em                         C
They say we can love who we trust,
      A5
ooooo-ooooo,
                         Em
but what is love without lust?

Em                        C  
Two hearts with accurate devotions,
      A5
ooooo-ooooo,
                             Em
what are feelings without emotions?


[Chorus]

G                    C
I'm Going in for the kill,
                     C
I'm doing it for a thrill,
                          D
oh I'm hoping you'll understand,
                     Em
and now let go of my hand.

x2

[Verse 2]

Em                    C
I hang my hopes out on the line,
      A5
ooooo-ooooo,
                              Em
will they be ready for you in time?

Em                       C
If you leave them out too long,
      A5
ooooo-ooooo,
                            Em
they'll be withered by this song.

Em                    C     
Full-stops and exclamation-marks,
      A5
ooooo-ooooo
                          Em
my words stumble before I start.

Em                      C
How far can you send emotions?
      A5
ooooo-ooooo
                          Em
Can this bridge cross the ocean?


[Chorus]

G                    C
I'm Going in for the kill,
                     C
I'm doing it for a thrill,
                          D
oh I'm hoping you'll understand,
                     Em
and now let go of my hand.

x2

G                        D       
Lets call to all to make peace,
C                      Em
Lets by cold to create ease.
G                     D
Open darkness we can see,
C                                     Em
You're not blind, borrow the light from me.


Vocal solo - same chords as verse


[Chorus]

G                    C
I'm Going in for the kill,
                     C
I'm doing it for a thrill,
                          D
oh I'm hoping you'll understand,
                     Em
and now let go of my hand.
