Intro:

   D             Gmaj7  Em

   D                      F#m
My true love drowned in a dirty old pan
   G                         D
Of oil that did run from the block
     Bm               G                Em
Of a falcon sedan nineteen sixty nine
    G            D
The paper said '75
      D*
There were no survivors
G           D
None found alive


D                       F#m
Trees break the sidewaaaaaalk
        G                 D
And the sidewalk skins my knees
        Bm
There's glass in my thermos
    G
And blood on my jeans
Bm                       G
Nickels and dimes of the fourth of july
Bm            G
Roll off in a crooked line

To the chain-link lots
                    D*
where the red tails dive
             D            G
Oh how I forgot what it's like


Chorus:

D
Hey, when she sings, when she sings
                        Gmaj7
when she sings like she runs
               Em
Moves like she runs
D
Hey, when she moves, when she moves
                        Gmaj7
when she moves like she runs
               Em
Moves like she runs
D
Hey there, there’s such tender wolves
       G
‘round town tonight
          Em
Round the town tonight
D
Hey there, there’s such tender wolves
       Gmaj7
‘round town tonight
          Em
Round the town tonight

Verse:

D                   F#m
Hey pretty baby get high with me,
       G                      D
We can go to my sisters if we say we'll watch the baby
    Bm                         G
The look on your face yanks my neck on the chain
    Bm
And I would do anything (I would do anything)
            D*
To see you again
                 D       G
So I’ve fallen behiiiiiind…

(Repeat Chorus)

Verse:

D            F#m
Go on, go on scream and cry
       G                            D
You're miles from where anyone will find you
        Bm              G
This is nothing new, no television crew
     G                     D
They don't even put on the sirens

My nightgown sweeps the pavement

Please don't let him die

Oh how I forgot...
