               F                  Am
We could be strangers in the night
             Dm
We could be passing in the shadows
                 F                Am
We couldn't be closer if we tried
            Dm
When we're caught in the headlights

We could be faces in the crowd
We could be passin' in the shadows
Lovin' the risk of bein' found
When we're caught in the headlights

 F    Am
Dangerous
      Dm
Your love is always dangerous
             F      Am
And now I'm lost in us
       Dm
We're living in a lying trust

Chorus:
F
I don't know why
       Am                         Dm
But I guess it's got something to do with you
To do with you
F
I don't know why
       Am                         Dm
But I guess it's got something to do with you
To do with you

I was a vacant alibi
Trading the truth in for a lie, oh
We were the essence of desire
And we're caught in the headlights

Dangerous
Your love is always dangerous
And now I'm lost in us
We're livin' in a lie of trust

Chorus - x2

 F
Tell me that you love me
Am
Tell me that you love me
Dm
Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you love me
 F
Tell me that you love me
 F    Am
Dangerous
(Tell me that you love me)
(Tell me that you love me)
      Dm
Your love is always dangerous

(Tell me that you love me)

Chorus - x2
