Verse 1
I (E minor) dragged this lake looking for corpses
(B minor) Dusted for prints, (C major) pried up the floorboards
(E minor) Pieces of planes and black box recorders
Don't (B minor) lie, (don't (C major) lie)
And I've been (E minor) preoccupied
with these sick, sick senses
That (B minor) sense DNA on (C major) barbed wire fences
(E minor) Maybe someday I'll find me a suspect
That (B minor) has no ali- (C major) bi

Interlude 1
(E minor) (E minor) (B minor) (C major)
(E minor) (E minor) (B minor) (C major)
Verse 2
(E minor) New Year's Eve was as boring as heaven
I (B minor) watched flies fuck on (C major) channel eleven
There was (E minor) no one to kiss,
there was nothing to drink
Except some (B minor) old rotten milk
someone (C major) left in the sink
And there's no (E minor) ring, no ring
on the phone anymore
There's no (B minor) reason to call
I passed (C major) out on the floor
(E minor) Smoked myself stupid
and drank my insides (B minor) raisin (C major) dry
Chorus 1
But at the (G major) right place at the right time
I'll be (B minor) dead wrong and you'll be (D major) just fine
And I won't (G major) have to quit doing fucked up shit
For (E minor) anyone but me (D major)
And at the (G major) right place at the right time
It will have (B minor) been worth it to (D major) stand in line
And you won't (G major) have to stop
Saying "I love cops" for (E minor) anyone but me (D major)
Interlude 2
Your private
(E minor) (eye) (E minor) (B minor) (C major)
(E minor) (E minor) (B minor) (C major)
Verse 3
I (E minor) dragged this lake looking for corpses
(B minor) Dusted for prints, (C major) pried up the floorboards

Don't (B minor) lie, (don't (C major) lie)
And I've been (E minor) preoccupied
with these sick, sick senses
That (B minor) sense DNA on (C major) barbed wire fences
(E minor) Maybe someday I'll find me a suspect
That (B minor) has no ali- (C major) bi
Chorus 2
