Intro 1
(A minor) (F major) (C major) (F major) (A minor) (F major)
(A minor) (F major) (G major)
(A minor) That girl's
Verse 1
(A minor)
not the one with the defects
Sailor (F major) Mane, Shriek, Bratz, oh correct
(G major) We (A minor) had dogs under eagle legs (F major)
She (A minor) looks so good
that he gets down and (F major) pecks
She's (G major) (C major) watching the detectives
Ooh, (G major) he's so cute
She's (C major) watching the detectives
When they (G major) shoot, (E minor) shoot,
(F major) shoot, (D major) shoot
(A minor) They beat him up until the tears drop start
(G major) But (F major) he can't feel wounded
cause he's got no heart (C major) (G major)
(A minor) A long shot at that jumping sign
In (F major) visible shivers running down my spine
Cut (A minor) the baby taking off her clothes
Close (F major) up of the sign
that says we never close
You (A minor) snatch a junior, a cigarette
She (F major) pulls her eyes out
with her face like a magnet
(A minor) I don't know how much
more of this I can (F major) take
(A minor) She's filing her nails
while they're dragging (F major) the lake
She's (C major) watching the detectives,
oh he's (G major) so cute
She's (C major) watching the detectives,
oh and (G major) they shoot, (E minor) shoot,
(F major) shoot, (A minor) shoot
They beat him up until the teardrops start
But (F major) he can't be wounded
cause he's got no heart (C major) (A minor) (G major)
(A minor) You think you're alone
until you realize you're in it now
Fear (F major) is here to stay,
love is here forever
They (G major) call (A minor) it instant chess
When it's past the legal limit
Someone's (F major) scratching at the window
Our wonderhood
There's a third de (A minor) tective
From the jack -o'
You belong to the parents
Who are ready (F major) to hear the worst
about their daughter's disappearance
So it nearly (A minor) took a miracle
to get you to stay
It only (F major) took my little fingers
to blow you away (C major)
Just like watch (G major) ing the detectives
(D minor) Don't (C major) get cute
Just like watch (G major) ing the detectives
You (A minor) get so angry when the teardrops start
(C major) But (F major) you can't move
because you've got no (C major) heart
Watch (G major) ing the detectives (A minor)
It's just like (C major) watch (F major) ing the detectives.
Watching (A minor) the detectives.
Watching (F major) the detectives.
Watch (A minor) ing the detectives.
Watch (F major) ing the detectives.
Watch (A minor) ing the de (E minor) tectives. (A minor)
Watch (F major) the protectors
(A minor)
