Sting - End Of The Game

[Verse 1]
D
The fox had done running
Bm
And the beast is at bay
G A
He’d run them in circles
Bm
By the end of the day

G D
They chased him through bramble
Bm
They chased him through the fields
G
They could chase him forever
A Bm
But the fox would not yield

G D
And some saw her shadow
Bm
On the crest of a hill
G
And the hounds were distracted
A D
Away from the kill

G A Bm*
One day we’ll reach a great ocean
G D A*
At the end of a pale afternoon
G A Bm
And we lay down our heads just like we were sleeping
G A
Controlled by the drag of the moon

[Verse 2]
D
We ran through the forests
Bm
And we ran through the streams
G A
We ran through the heather
Bm
Though we ran in our dreams

G D
And you were my lover
Bm7
And I was your beau
G
We ran like the river
A D
What else did we know?

G A Bm*
One day we’ll reach a great ocean
G D A*
At the end of a pale afternoon

F#m G
And the dogs are all worn out
A Bm
And the horses all lame
G
Oh the hunters they’re hunted
A D
At the end of the game

[Verse 3]
D
Our love was a river
Bm
A wild mountain stream
G A
In a tumbling fury
Bm
On the edge of a dream

G D
And they chased us through the brambles
Bm
And they chased us through the fields
G
They’d chased us forever
A D
But the heart would not yield

G
When the fox has done running
A Bm
At the end of the day
G
I’m ready to answer
D A
I’m ready to pay

Fm# G
And this river’s done running
A Bm
And my time will come soon
D G
Carried to the great ocean
A D
By the drag of the moon
