INTRO:
C# - C# (x3)
C# - A#m - Fm - F# (x2)

VERSE 1:
This [C#]escapee was never gonna [A#m]stay
On an [Fm]unfamiliar building on the [F#]rooftop where we lay
Where all the [C]constellations shine to pave the [A#m]way
Temp[Fm]tation's not a word until we've [F#]let it go a stray
And I won't de[C#]lete it[A#m]
He won't de[Fm]lete it, [F#]wha-ha-ho!

VERSE 2:
[C#]Light bolts hover over you all [A#m]day
Oh [Fm]darkness can be difficult like [F#]needles in the hay
I need to [C#]flick the switch and show you how to [A#m]hide
And [Fm]love is not the answer if you're [F#]taking me for a
[C#]Ri-i-i-i-[A#m]ide[Fm][F#]
For a [C#]ri-i-i-i-[A#m]ide[Fm][F#]

VERSE 1 REPRISE:
This [C#]escapee was never gonna [A#m]stay
On an [Fm]island way too difficult to [F#]be stuck in a daze
And all the [C#]competition's overcome what [A#m]may
Temp[Fm]tation's not a word until we've [F#]let it go astray
And I won't de[C#]lete it[A#m]
He won't de[Fm]lete it, [F#]wha-ha-ho!

OUTRO:
[C#] [A#m]
I'm es[Fm]caping, you're es[F#]caping
[C#] [A#m]
I'm es[Fm]caping, you're [F#]taking me for a
[C#]Ri-i-i-i-[A#m]ide[Fm][F#]
For a [C#]ri-i-i-i-[A#m]ide
I'm es[Fm]caping, you're es[F#]caping
For a [C#]ri-i-i-i-[A#m]ide
I'm es[Fm]caping, you're es[F#]caping
For a [C#]ri-i-i-i-[A#m]ide
I'm es[Fm]caping, you're es[F#]caping
[C#] [A#m]
I'm es[Fm]caping, you're es[F#]caping
