C                Em          Dm
We've been going easy on the thieves
C                 Em                 Dm
Stolen goods will get traced back to thee
C             Em          Dm
What a proper pair of charlies
C               Em                 Dm
Ducks behind a tree, and hope that no one sees


[Chorus]
Dm                    Em
Holding their breath, chose not to see
F
Not listening, forgot to breathe
Dm                   Em
Guessing their gaps, getting it wrong
F
You don't know me, or what I've done
Dm                 Em
People want blood, and blood is what
F
Is what they've got; is what they've got
C                Em
Suckers feeding, you could feel them
Dm
wheedling
C                 Em
Once you had some space, now you've got
Dm
panicking
C                    Em            Dm
That's just how they work, exactly how they win
C                   Em                Dm
First they dope you up, and then they dob you in


[Chorus]
Dm                    Em
Holding their breath, chose not to see
F
Not listening, forgot to breathe
Dm                   Em
Guessing their gaps, getting it wrong
F
You don't know me, or what I've done
Dm                 Em
People want blood, and blood is what
F
Is what they've got; is what they've got
Dm                 Em
People want blood, and blood is what
F
Is what they've got; is what they've got
Dm          Em                  F
People want blood, and blood is what
