The Prey Cifras

“The Prey is a story of seduction,
of using each other.
It’s a story of projection,
of only seeing yourself in the other.
It’s a story of realization,
of waking up from a dream”

The closer we get, the more I fall

   20 more to let me go
A.      C#m          D          F#m
    The play is done before the show
A   C#m  D   Bm
F#m       C#m            D           F#m
Light. Is waiting in the car outside
A     C#m             D            F#m
   To take you back into the night
A        C#m               D           Bm
   Can't move until you're out of sight
