Like A Thief

D A Em Em/F# G On your mark, ready, set destruction D Bm A A life sized reproduction of the past D A Em Em/F# G You ducked the charge of emotional abduction D Bm A Under the assumption that nothing ever lasts Em So forgive me if I'm wrong G D But the path you walked along to get to me A Em Is the one you used to leave, I have learned G A The sun is not the only thing that burns D A If you're gonna break my heart this time Bm Treat it like a crime G Do it like a thief D Quiet and discreet A Don't throw me away Bm In the middle of the day G If you're gonna break my heart D You gotta do it in the dark When you left, it looked like a train wreck Everybody stopped and looked around They saw me losing blood and steam Tearing at the seams but I never made a sound So I took it in the chest You hit me with a left and then the right When did you learn how to fight, it was murder in the first And you never even asked me if it hurt Em Em/F# G This time I'm not playing the fool Em Em/F# I was tested by the best G A And I've learned a thing or two
