Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Mystery Girl

It was the struggle of the century
And all the grown men came to see
The girl who could tame the tiger, yeah, yeah
The heart of the Southern lover
They found her under the sea
She said she came from cell block 3
(On the last A5, stop at measure 2, beat 1&. Replace the remaining notes with A7 in rhythm.)
PRE-CHORUS:
(For the pre-chorus, hit the bass note twice, then the full chord, a total of four times
chord)
The girl hit hot like a barracuda baby
She floated on air like a crest of a wave
She was a primal institution
She was a danger to herself, yeah
Mad lovin' by the cold hearted
E-slide
Take a deep breath, babe cause we've just started
CHORUS:
The rhythm changes here:
E5*:
1& 2& 3 & 4 &

A5*:
1& 2& 3 & 4 &

E5* A5*
Mystery Girl, Mystery Girl
E5* A5*
Keep on fakin' your mystery world
E5* A5*
Cause the mystery boys will be your toys, yeah
E5* A5* G A B E-slide
The mystery boys will be your toys
VERSE:
Not a day goes by I wanna disappear
Into her a eyes of mother of pearl
And my head feels dead from all this useless fightin'
But my heart ain't dead cause it keeps on lovin'
PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS
OUTRO:
repeat G A B over the lyrics
The mystery boys will be your toys, yeah
The mystery boys will be your toys
They'll be your toys, yeah girls
They'll be your toys, alright...
End on E.
