Key : Em
Capo
[Intro]

Em | Bm | C  | Em 
Bm | C  | Em | Bm 
C  | Em 
Bm | C  

[Verse 1]
---------------------
Em  Em
  I dragged this lake looking for corpses
Bm                 C
Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards
Em
Pieces of planes and black box recorders
      Bm         C
Don't lie (don't lie)
              Em
And I've been preoccupied with these sick, sick senses
     Bm           C
That sense DNA on barbed wire fences
Em
Maybe someday I'll find me a suspect
     Bm        C
That has no alibi

[Bridge (1)]

Em | Bm | C | Em | Bm 
C

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Em
New Year's Eve was as boring as heaven
  Bm                    C
I watched flies fuck on channel eleven
          Em
There was no one to kiss, there was nothing to drink
            Bm                      C
Except some old rotten milk someone left in the sink
               Em
And there's no ring there's no ring on the phone anymore
           Bm                      C
There's no reason to call I passed out on the floor
Em                                        Bm     C
Smoked myself stupid and drank my insides raisin dry

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
           G
But at the right place at the right time
        Bm                       D
I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine
            G
And I won't have to quit doing fucked up shit
    Em
For anyone but me
D           G
 And at the right place at the right time
           Bm               D
It'll have been worth it to stand in line
          G
You won't have to stop
                         Em
Saying "I love cops" for anyone but me
D             Em
 Your private eye

[Bridge (2)]

Bm | C | Em | Bm | C 

[Verse 3]

  Em
I dragged this lake looking for corpses
Bm                 C
Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards

Pieces of planes and black box recorders

Don't lie (don't lie)
              Em
And I've been preoccupied with these sick, sick senses
     Bm           C
That sense DNA on barbed wire fences
Em
Maybe someday I'll find me a suspect
     Bm        C
That has no alibi

[Chorus (2)]

At the right place at the right time
        Bm                       D
I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine
            G
And I won't have to quit doing fucked up shit
    Em
For anyone but me
D       G
 At the right place at the right time
           Bm               D
It'll have been worth it to stand in line
          G
You won't have to stop
                         Em
Saying "I love cops" for anyone but me
D             C
