[repeat intro and sing]:
Bb9
Good girls walk fast in groups of three
Fadd11
Fast girls walk slow on side streets
F
Sometimes the girls who walk alone
C
Aren't found for days or weeks
Bb9
On the busy boulevards
Fadd11
Bad boys call you names and cruise you hard
F
Bullies laugh and grin and beat
C
Your soft skin against the cold concrete
Bb9 Fadd11
I'm 3,000 miles away
F C
I'm 3,000 miles away
Bb9 Fadd11
I'm 3,000 miles away
F C
I'm 3,000 miles away
Bb9
Knock you down, make you bleed
Fadd11
Make you cry and make you think
F
I'll die here soon if I don't leave
C
If I don't leave, if I don't leave
Bb9
This patch of sky and native ground
Fadd11
Take turns to push and pull you down
F
Forget trying to live and be happy
C
I'll take safe and terror free
Chorus...
Bb9
Hit the floor, shut off the lights,
Fadd11
As the bullets fly
F
Terror rules the dark night,
C
Dogs hang from the trees
Bb9
This training ground for punks and thieves,
Fadd11
Home of poor white retirees
F
Who didn't bail and couldn't sell
C
When color made the grass less green
Chorus...

Bb9
Apples are filled with razor blades
Fadd11
But fools and innocents believe
F
That love and faith and truth and beauty
C
Can make a garden of this human factory
Chorus...
Bb9
Bad girls run fast leave home alone
Fadd11
No trace or clue of where they've gone
F
Sometimes these girls are never found
C
Never found, never found
Chorus... x 4
