[Verse 1]
G C G
He’s a loaded gun
G C Am
A dangerous thrill who I love
G C D Em
His shooting is sharp and my head is his mark
C Am G
But transfixed by some magical spark
C Am G
I try running but my feet never start
[Verse 2]
G C G
The animal is me
G C Am
A slow-thinking, slobbering beast
G C D Em
I feed from the hand of a murderous man
C Am G
But a good man I say to myself
C Am D D7
As he slides his gun into my mouth
[Chorus]
G C G
The hunter I love in spite of his gun
Am C D G
He keeps me coming when I know I should run
C G
Make my get away clean
Am
I know it’s bad
C D G
But it’s the nature of things
[Verse 3]
G C G
Two portraits of us apart
G C Am
Would make for meaningless art
G C D Em
A man with no kill and a girl with no thrill
C Am G
We in each other define
C Am D D7
The meaning we see in our lives
[Chorus]
G C G
The hunter I love in spite of his gun
Am C D G
He keeps me coming when I know I should run
C G
Make my get away clean
Am
I know it’s bad
C D Am
But it’s the nature of things
[Bridge]
Am C
And like a moth to the flame
Am D D7
When he whistles my name
Am F
It’ll kill me to stay
Am D D7
But I do anyway
[Chorus]
G C G
The hunter I love in spite of his gun
Am C D G
He keeps me coming when I know I should run
C G
Make my get away clean
Am
I know it’s bad
C D G
But it’s the nature of things
G Am
Yeah, I know it’s bad
C D G
But it’s the nature of things
