Private Eye Chords - Alkaline Trio






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

G-D-A-Em

E                               A   
New Year's Eve was as boring as heaven
D                       A
I watched flies f**k on channel 11
E                         Em 
There was no one to kiss, there was nothing to drink 
G                                D  
but some old rotten milk someone left in the sink
F                                     A
And there's no ring, there's no ring, on the phone anymore
Em                         G
There's no reason to call I passed out on the floor
D                        A 
Smoked myself stupid and drank my insides raisin dry


Em         E                  D  
But at the right place at the right time
A            Em                                
I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine
G                                 D 
I won't have to quit doing f****d up s**t
           E    
For anyone but me
Em         E                  D  
And the right place at the right time
G                                 D 
It will have been worth it to stand in line
E
And you won't have to stop
Em               E 
say I love cops, for anyone but me
Em           G 
Your private eye.
