Police Station Red Hot Chili Peppers
I [G]saw you at the [C]police station and it [Em]breaks my heart to [Em]say.
Your [G]eyes had wandered [C]off to something [Em]distant, cold and [Em]grey.
[Am]I guess you didn't see it coming,
[Am]Someone's gotten used to slumming.
[G]Dreaming of the golden years,
[Gmaj7]I see you had to change careers.
[Am]Far away, [Am]but we both know it's somewhere.
[G]I saw you on the [C]back page of some [Em]pre press yester[Em]day.
[G]The drip wood in your [C]eyes had nothing [Em]short of love for [Em]pain.
[Am]I know you from another picture,
[Am]Of someone with the most convictions.
[G]We used to read the funny papers,
[Gmaj7]Fooled around and pulled some capers.
[Am]Not today, send a message to her.
[D]A message that I'm coming, [D7]coming to pursue her.
[F]Tell your country [C]I, rest my face o[Aadd9]n your [a]bed.
[F]I've got you ten times over, [C]I'll chase you down 'til [Aadd9]you're [a]dead.
[G]I saw you on a [C]TV station and it [Em]made me wanna [Em]pray.
[G]An empty shell of [C]loveliness is now [Em]dusted with d[Em]ecay.
[Am]What happened to the funny paper?
[Am]Smiling was your money maker.
[G]Someone oughta situate her,
[Gmaj7]Find a way to educate her.
[Am]All the way, t[Am]ime to come and find you.
[D]You can't hide from me girl, [D7]so never mind what I do.
[F]Tell your country [C]I, rest my face on[Aadd9] your [a]bed.
[F]I bet my sovereign country and [C]I, left it all for[Aadd9] your [a]head.
[D] [D] [Am] [Am] [Em] [Em] [Am] [Am] [C] [D] [D]
[G]I saw you in the [C]church and there was [Em]no time to exc[Em]hange.
[G]You were getting [C]married and it [Em]felt so very [Em]strange.
[Am]I guess I didn't see it coming,
[Am]Now I guess it's me who's bumming.
[G]Dreaming of the golden years,
[Gmaj7]You and I were mixing tears.
[Am]Not today, not for me but someone.
[D]I never could get used to, [D7]so now I will refuse to.
[F]Tell your country [C]I, rest my face on[Aadd9] your [a]bed.
[F]I bet my sovereign country and [C]I, left it all for[Aadd9] your [a]head
[F]I got my best foot forward and [C]I'll chase you down 'til [Aadd9]you're [a]dead
Finally, you can play this with the piano:
[Am] [Am] [Em] [Em] [Am] [Am] [Em] [Em] [Am] [Am] [Em] [Em] [Am] [Am] [Em] [Em] [Am] [Am] [Em]
