    Private Eye

EI (022100@1)dragged this lake looking for corpses
Em (022000@1)               G (320003@1)Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards
D (xx0232@1)                 A (x02220@1)Pieces of planes and black box recorders
EDon't (022100@1)lie
(Don't lie)
D (xx0232@1)                                  AAnd (x02220@1)I've been preoccupied with these sick, sick senses
Em (022000@1)           G (320003@1)     
That sense DNA on barbed wire fences
A (x02220@1)            E (022100@1)Maybe someday, I'll find me a suspect
FThat (133211@1)has no alibi

New Year's Eve was as boring as heaven
D (xx0232@1)                     AI (x02220@1)watched flies fuck on channel 11
E (022100@1)                       Em (022000@1)There was no one to kiss, there was nothing to drink 
G (320003@1)                              D (xx0232@1)
but some old rotten milk someone left in the sink
F (133211@1)                                   AAnd (x02220@1)there's no ring, there's no ring, on the phone anymore
Em (022000@1)                       GThere's (320003@1)no reason to call I passed out on the floor
D (xx0232@1)                      A (x02220@1)Smoked myself stupid and drank my insides raisin dry


Em (022000@1)       E (022100@1)                D (xx0232@1)
But at the right place at the right time
A (x02220@1)          Em (022000@1)                              
I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine
G (320003@1)                               D (xx0232@1)I won't have to quit doing fucked up shit
           E (022100@1)  
For anyone but me
Em (022000@1)       E (022100@1)                D (xx0232@1)
And the right place at the right time
G (320003@1)                               D (xx0232@1)It will have been worth it to stand in line
EAnd (022100@1)you won't have to stop
Em (022000@1)             E (022100@1)say I love cops, for anyone but me
