Oh Billy stares at Cherry in the hall
C F
And walks out into the rain so blessed and tall
C G
Standin' on the corner with a gun underneath his coat
F G
Beneath the stars on the street
C G
Oh on Lexington Avenue they stand
C F
Velvet aces they case the promised land
C G
Reachin' out across the hoods with both hands
F G
Oh, tryin' to catch a ride
C Am F G
Tonight we're lovers in the cold, oh, oh, oh
C Am F G
Running past the graveyards in the snow, no, no, no
C Am F G
Walking in the street with nowhere to go, oh, oh, oh
F G
And it's no, no, no, no, no, no, no
C / G / C / F / C / G / F / G
C G
Oh and the getaway driver waits outside the store
C F
He pulls away just as Billy runs out the door
C G F G
Oh and Billy won't run anymore, no, no, no
C G
Oh baby I can't lay the stars at your feet
C F
Oh but I think we could take it all, just you and me
C G
Oh come on, you'll see, there's a lot of room
F G
For you baby, in this front seat
C Am F G
Tonight we're lovers on that road, oh, oh, oh
C Am F G
Running past the graveyards in the snow, oh, oh, oh
C Am F G
Walking in the street with nowhere to go, oh, oh, oh
F G
And it's oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Tonight we're lovers in the snow, oh, oh, oh

Running past the graveyards, no, no, no
