E
I dragged this lake looking for corpses
Em G
Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards
D A
Pieces of planes and black box recorders
E
Don't lie
(Don't lie)
D A
And I've been preoccupied with these sick, sick senses
Em G
That sense DNA on barbed wire fences
A E
Maybe someday, I'll find me a suspect
F
That has no alibi
G-D-A-Em
E A
New Year's Eve was as boring as heaven
D A
I watched flies fuck on channel 11
E Em
There was no one to kiss, there was nothing to drink
G D
but some old rotten milk someone left in the sink
F A
And there's no ring, there's no ring, on the phone anymore
Em G
There's no reason to call I passed out on the floor
D A
Smoked myself stupid and drank my insides raisin dry
Em E D
But at the right place at the right time
A Em
I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine
G D
I won't have to quit doing fucked up shit
E
For anyone but me
Em E D
And the right place at the right time
G D
It will have been worth it to stand in line
E
And you won't have to stop
Em E
say I love cops, for anyone but me
Em G
Your private eye.
