Private Eye Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Alkaline Trio
Intro: Em Bm C x2

  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

Em Bm C

    Em
And New Year's Eve was as boring as heaven
Bm			C
I watched flies f**k on Channel 11
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

	    G
But at the right place at the right time
	Bm			   D
I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine
	G
I won't have to quit doing f**ked up sh*t
    Bm	      Am
For anyone but me
	G
At the right place at the right time
       Bm		D
It'll be worth it to stand in line
		G
You won't have to stop saying "I love cops" 
     Bm        Am
for anyone but me
	
Your private eye
