Pre-chorus: F#m E D E
Chorus: A E F#m D (same as refrain)
AE
When I was a child:
F#m
Running in the night,
DA
Afraid of what might be
E
Hiding in the dark,
F#m
Hiding in the street,
DD#m
And of what was following me...
ED#m
Now hounds of love are hunting.
ED#m
I've always been a coward,
EF#m
And I don't know what's good for me.
A
Here I go!
EF#mD
It's coming for me through the trees.
AE
Help me, someone!
D#m
Help me, please!
AE
Take my shoes off,
F#mDA
And throw them in the lake, and I'll be
EF#mD
Two steps on the water.
AE
I found a fox
F#m
Caught by dogs.
DA
He let me take him in my hands.
E
His little heart,
F#m
It beats so fast,
DA
And I'm ashamed of running away
E
From nothing real--
F#m
I just can't deal with this,
DF#mED
But I'm still afraid to be there,
ED#m
Among your hounds of love,
ED#m
And feel your arms surround me.
ED#m
I've always been a coward,
EF#m
And never know what's good for me.
A
Oh, here I go!
EF#m
Don't let me go!
DA
Hold me down!
EF#mD
It's coming for me through the trees.
AE
Help me, darling,
F#mD
Help me, please!
AE
Take my shoes off
F#mD
And throw them in the lake,
A
And I'll be
EF#mD
Two steps on the water.
AE
I don't know what's good for me.
F#m
I don't know what's good for me.
DAE
I need your love love love love love, yeah!
F#mD
Your love!
AE
Take your shoes off
F#mD
And throw them in the lake!
AE
Do you know what I really need?
F#m
Do you know what I really need?
DA
I need love love love love love, yeah!
