Your broken hearted detective


Refrain:
Am           C        G
   Hey girl, save the liar
Am                   C        G
   Can't you see his pants on fire?
Am           C        G
   Hey girl, save the liar
Am                   C        G
   Can't you see his pants on fire?


Verse 1:
Am           C      G
  My back it hurts again
Am              C    G
  It aches like history
Am                C       G
  Cottonmouth and all lit up
Am              C       G
   Your smiling back at me, but


Pre-Chorus:
F
  I feel you must have failed me
F
  Once again you've let me down
F
  My confidence below my knees
   Dm         G        Am
Now I need to find you out


Chorus:
Am       C      G
Peek in, sneak about
Am                  C        G
I'm gonna snoop and call you out
  Am               C         G
I caught you, your hands are red
             Am             C    G
Now I'm your broken-hearted detective


Verse 2:
F  Dm C G
         Hey, hey hey
Am            C       G
   Hey lover, why the gun?
Am              C      G
   Hold on, I'm almost there
Am                    C          G
   It's too late, you killed the trust
Am              C  G
   Don't act so unaware


Pre-Chorus:
  F
So why are you so destructive?
F
  Do you realize what you've done?
F
  You can't bring it back to life now
Dm              G       Am
   What are you running from?


Chorus:
Am       C      G
Peek in, sneak about
Am                  C        G
I'm gonna snoop and call you out
  Am               C         G
I caught you, your hands are red
             Am             C    G
Now I'm your broken-hearted detective


Bridge:
F
I don't like the way I feel
F                Dm C G
I just want you to be real

Am  C G

   Can't you see his pants on fire?

  I'm rummaging through your closet

   Imagining all the worst thoughts

Peek in, sneak about

I'm gonna snoop and call you out

I caught you, your hands are red
             N.C.
Now I'm your broken hearted detective

I'm gonna snoop and call you out
  F
I caught you, your hands are red
