-----------------------------------

 Ab     Fm      D#    Cm

Ab
Most sentimental nights
Fm
hold me in your sights
D#           Cm
shoot me down

oh, there ain't no enemy here
you keep me very near
and shoot me down
shoot me down

your hands they flutter up
under danger rests my buttercup
shoot me down
    Bb
in flames

Fm                                        Ab
stand back, baby, stand back and let me breathe
              Bb           D#
I think I'm falling out of here
Fm
I can hear the grass grow, 
                 Ab
I can hear the melting snow
    Bb             D#          
I can feel your breathe against my ear
Fm               Ab   Bb
I might just disappear
Ab                     Bb
yeah, wouldn't that be nice
Ab                     Bb
yeah, wouldn't that be nice
well, wouldn't that be nice


I look into your eyes
it comes as no great surprise
you're gonna shoot me down
shoot me down

I know that when you smile
it'll only be just for a short little while
shoot me down
in flames

D#               Ab
shoot me down (shoot me down)
D#               Bb
in flames (shoot me down)
shoot me down (shoot me down)
in flames (shoot me down)
