[Verse]
Dm
You took off in the dead of night

But before you did, got your hair combed right, yeah
Dm
The neighborhood watch knows the score
G Bb C
And they're knockin' at your door, let 'em knock some more
[Pre Chorus]

They're sayin' you need a little protection
Dm C G
But followin' the leader gonna turn you off the religion
[Chorus]
G Dm C
It's comin' down, the hardest cut

Long day into night, the hardest cut

We live on a knife

Here it is, the hardest cut
