      D
In an empty room or a downtown bar
           A
'Cross the universe,
there's no place too far
        G
Yeah, wherever you are
                  D
You and me, thick as thieves.

Well it ain't always pretty,
sometimes it got rough
Could have thrown the towel
in and thrown our hands up
Seems like we've always been and always will be
Thick as thieves

Chorus:
 G                      D       A
Time, time won't never drag us down
G                                   D        A
You, me, us, ain't looking back or turning around
      Em                Bm
It's classic boy meets girl
         Em                Bm
With our backs against the world
         A
You and me.
           D
Thick as thieves.

In a world without faith,
you're what I believe
When they're stacking the deck,
you're the card up my sleeve
In my hour of need, you and me, yeah
Thick as thieves

Chorus

If i'd robbed a bank, you wouldn't care
You'd come sit on my lap in the electric chair
And when they'd flip the switch
We'd just kiss.

Chorus:
I know nothing's gonna stop us now
You, me, us, on the edge and never looking down
What's a boy to do, it's classic me and you
Lucky you, lucky me
Thick as thieves, oh
Thick as thieves, oh yeah
