[Intro]
F#m C#m (2x)
[Verse 1]
F#m C#m I want a girl to make a mess F#m A To do no wrong she must confess F#m C#m And then perhaps hitch up her dress D A E 'Cos when the flashbulbs explode D A E She's such a sensitive soul… F#m C#m F#m C#m Do, do, do, do, do, do, do...
{Verse 2]
F#m C#m I want a girl who is helpless and frail F#m A Who won't pull on my ponytail F#m C#m I want a girl who has no past F#m She's made up now A But that won't last D A E 'Cos when she sits on my knee D A E I hear her whisper to me
[Chorus]
F#m C#m F#m C#m F#m C#m "Can't you see, I could be, I could be your spooky girlfriend… Do, do, do, do.... F#m C#m F#m C#m I could be, I could be your spooky girlfriend…" F#m C#m F#m C#m Do, do, do, do, do, do, do...
[Verse 3]
F#m C#m And the broken toys are scattered in the attic F#m C#m Newspapers play with the words of the fanatic F#m C#m While the greeting cards are your most poetic lyric F#m A And the flat champagne is sweet sugar syrup
[Break]
F#m C#m F#m C#m
F#m I want to paint you with glitter and with dirt C#m Picture you with innocence and hurt F#m The shutter closes,exposes the shot C#m She says, "Are you looking up my skirt?" D When you say "No" C# She says "Why not?"
[Verse 4]
F#m C#m I want a girl to turn my screw F#m A To wind my watch, to buckle my shoe F#m C#m And if she won't her mother will do D A E But when she does as she's told D A E We'll all turn platinum and gold D A E But when she sits on my knee D A E I hear her whisper to me F#m "Can't you see?" C#m F# C#m "I could be your spooky girlfriend"
