(G5/E) (A5/E) (G5/E) 
I was caught in the crossfire 
(E5) (G5/E) 
of a silent scream 
(A5/E) (G5/E) 
Where one man‘s nightmare 
(E5) (G5/A) 
is another man‘s dream 
(A5) (G5/A) 
Pull the cover up high 
(A5) (G5/E) (A5/E), (G5/E) (E5), 
and pray for the mornin‘ light 
(C2) 
Cause you‘re livin‘ alone 
(D) (G5/E) (A5/E), (G5/E) (E5), 
in the heat of the night 
 
 
Met a man with a message 
from the other side 
Couldn‘t take the pressure 
had to leave it behind 
He said it‘s up to you 
You can run or you can fight (Ya that‘s right) 
Better leave it alone 
in the heat of the night 
 
Chorus 
(G5/E) (E5) (G) 
In the heat of the night 
(D/F#) 
they‘ll be comin‘ around 
(Em) 
They‘ll be lookin‘ for answers 
(C) 
they‘ll be chasin‘ you down 
(G) (D) 
In the heat of the night 
(C2) 
(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down? 
(D) 
Don‘t look back don‘t ever turn around)

In the heat of the night 
(C2) 
(Where ya gonna hide when it all comes down? 
(D)

Had to pay the piper 
to call the tune 
Said he‘d be back someday 
said he‘d be back real soon 
Pull the shades down low 
you‘ll know when the time is right 
When you‘re lyin‘ alone 
in the heat of the night

they‘ll be chasin‘ you down 
(G) (D) 
In the heat of the night

(D) 
Don‘t look back don‘t ever turn around)
