Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It all happened so fast, I can't recall
Policemen everywhere, nowhere to run
It took a while but I came out of hiding with my hands up
They say, "If you know what's good for you, come on out with your hands up"
[PreChorus]
I've been running
Can't run no more
Got blood on my hands
Yeah, hey
[Chorus]
Who's gonna save me now?
I shot my lover and I ran away
Committed murder in the USA
Who's gonna save me now?
Who's gonna help me now?
I shot my lover and I ran away
Didn't mean it to go this way
No, no, no
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh
[Verse 2]
It all happened so fast, but came undone
We'd just made love and it was so pure
And then my phone started ringing
You saw a name and got crazy
Nothing I said was true, you trust I didn't love you
[PreChorus]
Now I'm in trouble
Big big trouble
Got blood on my hands
Yeah, hey
[Chorus]
Who's gonna save me now?
I shot my lover and I ran away
Committed murder in the USA
Who's gonna save me now?
Who's gonna help me now?
I shot my lover and I ran away
Didn't mean it to go this way
No, no, no, oh
[Verse 3]
You and I
We were meant to be
Still in love, going strong
In a perfect world
Guess I'll be seeing you soon now
They say I gotta face the chair now
Oh no, no
Wish I could turn, wish I could turn back time
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[Chorus]
Who's gonna save me now?
I shot my lover and I ran away
Baby I didn't mean it to go this way
Hey, hey
Save me now
Ran away
Committed murder in the USA
Who's gonna save me now?
[Chorus]
Who's gonna help me now?
I shot my lover and I ran away
Didn't mean it to go this way
No, no, no
Who's gonna save me now?
I shot my lover and I ran away
Committed murder in the USA
Who's gonna save me now?
Who's gonna help me now?
I shot my lover and I ran away
Didn't mean it to go this way
Hey
