[Verse 1]
                                 A
Time can make more rubble out of dreams than anything,

E                                   A
In a quiet neighborhood where she's living without wings,

E                                   A
There's eye behind the curtains and ears below the floor,

E                                              A
There's cracks inside the ceiling and there's shadows at the door,

C#m                 B               A
Her boredom stirs a rage inside her soul,

C#m                B                 A
The razor reaches out and takes control
[Chorus]
             E           A
Baby she's a wild thing

             E           A
Baby she's a wild thing

Baby she's a wild thing

[Verse 2]
                    A
Nine days out alone sleeping in the dirt,

E                             A
She walks back into town with blood stains on her shirt,

E                          A
Everyone has questions but no one wants to know,

E                                A
How far the anger in someone can really make them go,

C#m                  B                 A
Her tangled hair and mud stains on her knees,

C#m              B           A
Bruised ribs and rips on the side of her jeans,
[Chorus]
             E           A
Baby she's a wild thing

             E           A
Baby she's a wild thing

Baby she's a wild thing

       F#m                   A
Well I used to be a citizen in this town,

       E                         B
Til my teeth turned grey and my hair fell out,

       F#m                              A
I'm a symbol to some people they don't wanna know,

      E                                    B
But a girl looking for trouble said she'd give me a go

      F#m                            A
While everybody's sleeping in this town at night,

          E                           B
From the crooked clock tower to the borderline,

    F#m                        A
And night star static in the winter breeze,

      E                                 B
She's lying in the moonlight with her hands between my knees

              F#m
She said it's alright,

              A         E
Well it's alright by me

              F#m
She said it's alright,

               A        E
Well it's alright by me
[Chorus]
             E           A
Baby she's a wild thing

             E           A
Baby she's a wild thing

Baby she's a wild thing
