F#m                          E
I awake to find no peace of mind
             A                G#m
I said "How do you live as a fugitive?"
Down here, where i cannot see so clear
I said "What do i know?" show me the right way to go

Chorus:
         F#m                   G#m
And the spies came out of the water
          A                         G#m
And your feeling so bad 'cause you know
          F#m                     E
That the spies hide out in every corner
              A
But you cant touch them no
         B
'Cause they're all spies

I awake to see that no one is free
We're all fugitives - look at the way we live
Down here, I cannot sleep from fear, no
I said, "Which way do I turn?"
Oh, I forget everything I learn

Chorus

A                     B
And if we don't hide here
                   F#m
They're gonna find us
           G#m       F#m
And if we don't hide now
               B                  A
They're gonna catch us where we sleep
                          B
Ah, and if we don't hide here
                  D#m7-5 G#
They're gonna find us

Chorus:
  A                   G#m
Spies came out of the water
          A                          F#
And your feeling so good 'cause you know
           F#m                      E
That those spies hide out in every corner
                A
And they can't touch you no
         B            C#m
'Cause they're just spies
