Verse:
   DD                      F#F#
My true love drowned in a dirty old pan
   GG                         DD
Of oil that did run from the block
     BmBm               GG                EmEm
Of a falcon sedan nineteen sixty nine
    GG              DD
The paper said '75
DD*
There were no survivors
GG           DD
None found alive

DD               F#F#
Trees break the sidewalk
        BmBm                 DD
And the sidewalk skins my knees
        BmBm
There's glass in my thermos
    AA
And blood on my jeans
DD                        BmBm
Nickels and dimes of the fourth of july
BmBm       AA    GG
Roll off in a crooked line
       DD
To the chain-link lots
                    DD*
where the red tails dive
   DD     DD*               GG
Oh how I forgot what it's like

DD
Hey, when she sings, when she sings
                        Gmaj7Gmaj7

Moves like she runs
DD
Hey, when she moves, when she moves
                        Gmaj7Gmaj7
when she moves like she runs
               EmEm
Moves like she runs
DD
Hey there, there?s such tender wolves
       GG
?round town tonight
          EmEm
Round the town tonight
DD
Hey there, there?s such tender wolves
       Gmaj7Gmaj7

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

Chorus:

DD
Hey, when she sings, when she sings
                        Gmaj7Gmaj7
when she sings like she runs
               EmEm
Moves like she runs
DD
Hey, when she moves, when she moves
                        Gmaj7Gmaj7
when she moves like she runs
               EmEm
Moves like she runs
DD
Hey there, there?s such tender wolves

You're miles from where anyone will find you
        BmBm              DD
This is nothing new, no television crew

They don't even put on the sirens
     BmBm                 AA         DD      BmBm
