F C}
(repeat intro and sing):
Good g ^A#sus2 irls walk fast in groups of three
Fast g ^Fadd11 irls walk slow on side streets
Somet ^F imes the girls who walk alone
Aren't f ^C ound for days or weeks
^A#sus2 On the busy boulevards
Bad b ^Fadd11 oys call you names and cruise you hard
B ^F ullies laugh and grin and beat
Your s ^C oft skin against the cold concrete
^A#sus2 I'm 3,000 miles ^Fadd11 away
^F I'm 3,000 miles aw ^C ay
^A#sus2 I'm 3,000 miles ^Fadd11 away
^F I'm 3,000 miles aw ^C ay
Kn ^A#sus2 ock you down, make you bleed
M ^Fadd11 ake you cry and make you think
I'll d ^F ie here soon if I don't leave
If ^C I don't leave, if I don't leave
This ^A#sus2 patch of sky and native ground
Take t ^Fadd11 urns to push and pull you down
Forget tr ^F ying to live and be happy
^C I'll take safe and terror free
Chorus...
H ^A#sus2 it the floor, shut off the lights,
^Fadd11 As the bullets fly
T ^F error rules the dark night,
D ^C ogs hang from the trees
This tr ^A#sus2 aining ground for punks and thieves,
H ^Fadd11 ome of poor white retirees
Who d ^F idn't bail and couldn't sell
When c ^C olor made the grass less green
Chorus...
(solo)
^{A#sus2 Fadd11 F C
A#sus2 Fadd11 F C}
Appl ^A#sus2 es are filled with razor blades
But f ^Fadd11 ools and innocents believe
That l ^F ove and faith and truth and beauty
Can m ^C ake a garden of this human factory
Chorus...
Bad g ^A#sus2 irls run fast leave home alone
No tr ^Fadd11 ace or clue of where they've gone
Somet ^F imes these girls are never found
N ^C ever found, never found
Chorus... x 4
