Private Eye Alkaline Trio
I [Em]dragged this lake looking for corpses
[Bm]Dusted for prints, p[C]ried up the floorboards
[Em]Pieces of planes and black box recorders
[Bm]Don't lie ([C]don't lie)
And I've been [Em]preoccupied with these sick, sick senses
[Bm]That sense DNA on ba[C]rbed wire fences
[Em]Maybe someday I'll find me a suspect
[Bm]That has no alib[C]i
[Em] [Bm] [C]
And [Em]New Year's Eve was as boring as heaven
[Bm]I watched flies fuck on [C]Channel 11
[Em]There was no one to kiss, there was nothing to drink
[Bm]Except some old rotten milk some[C]one left in the sink
And [Em]there's no ring, there's no ring on the phone anymore
[Bm]There's no reason to call, [C]I passed out on the floor
[Em]Smoked myself stupid and drank my insides [Bm]raisin [C]dry
But at the r[G]ight place at the right time
I'll be [Bm]dead wrong and you'll be ju[D]st fine
I won't [G]have to quit doing fucked up shit
For [Bm]anyone but[Am] me
At the r[G]ight place at the right time
It'll b[Bm]e worth it to sta[D]nd in line
You won't have t[G]o stop saying "I love cops"
for a[Bm]nyone but [Am]me
Your private eye
