Dm Bb  Gm

[Verse]
    Dm      Bb
If you say go
            Gm
There's a chance that we're running scared
           Dm               Bb
When they say you'll never be there
         Gm
In the dress that you'll never wear

        Bb    Gm
It's a sorry affair
               F       Gm
We're on a hiding to nowhere
           Bb       Gm
It's only right to swear
           F                 Gm
And they pray that I won't answer you back

           Bb                   Gm
It's the dance that we'll never share
         F                      Gm
And the alarms that you can't do without
      Bb        Gm
We're running scared
            F           Gm
We're on a hiding to nowhere

[Verse]
Dm       Bb
No, no, no
           Gm
It takes a chance, a truth or dare
           Dm                      Bb
Is there a chance your lover be spared
       Gm
If we say that we're running scared

        Bb    Gm
It's a sorry affair
               F       Gm
We're on a hiding to nowhere
           Bb       Gm
It's only right to swear
           F                 Gm
And they pray that I won't answer you back

We're running scared
            F           Gm
We're on a hiding to nowhere

        Dm                    Bb
So you button, you button your lip
          Gm                    Bb
And you button, you button your lip

                  Dm
And there's a sense of doubt
          Bb
When the roads are out
      Gm
You say that you'll never be there

       Dm                     Bb    Gm
So you button, you button your lip

    Dm      Bb
If you say go
             Gm
There's a chance that we're running scared
          Dm                   Bb
When they say you'll never be there
         Gm                      Bb
In the dress that you'll never wear

        Dm                    Bb
So you button, you button your lip
          Gm                    Bb
And you button, you button your lip

           Bb           Gm
We're on a hiding to nowhere
         F                 Gm
And they say that I won't answer you back

It's the dance that we'll never share
         F                      Gm
And the alarms that you can't do without
      Bb        Gm
We're running scared
            F           Gm
We're on a hiding to nowhere
