And I know a game, two of us can play,
And there are no rules, you'd break them anyway,
When I reach for you, and you turn a - way,
That's murder in the dark, murder in the dark!
Did you turn out the light, so I can't see your eyes?
If I can't read your lips, did you think that you could hide?
When you don't tell the truth, without ever telling lies,
That's murder in the dark, murder in the dark!

Oh, I know... that the sun will rise, the sun will fall,
The heavens spin and fool us all!
I thought there'd be a change, I really should have known,
Right before the dawn, all the party fa - vours gone,
It's a funny thing, but you can play alone,
Murder in the dark, murder in the dark!
Hoh---oh, oh---------------! Hoh---oh, oh--------------!

And I know... that the sun will rise, the sun will fall,
The heavens spin and fool us all!
And I know a game, two of us can play,
Murder in the dark, murder in the dark,
Love hurts-----, love scars-----, love wounds-----, and mars----,
Anyone not tough----, or strong e - nough to take a lot of pain-------,
Take a lot of pain-----, love is like a flower,
Holds a lot of rain, holds a lot of rain!
(Additional coda that Boo often uses in live performances,
with a strummed build up)
Hey, ay - ay----! | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / |
Love hurts, love hurts! Love hurts, love hurts!
Love hurts, love hurts! Love hurts, love hurts!
Love hurts, love hurts! Love hurts, love hurts!
Love hurts, love hurts! Love hurts, love hurts!
