Chords

This is one of my favorite songs, and I hope I didn't kill with the wrong chords :p Thank you so much Mer! [Instrumental] Am G F E Am G F E [Verse]
Am       G                   F            E
I know a girl, she walks the asphalt world

Am       G                   F            E
She comes to me, I supply her with Ecstasy

Am                                 G
Sometimes we ride in a taxi to the ends of the city

     F                              E
Like big stars in the backseat like skeletons ever so pretty

Am       G                   F            E
I know a girl, she walks the asphalt world
[Chorus]
                   Dm
But where does she go?

                   Dm
And what does she do?

G       G#       Am
And how does she feel when she's next to you?

                    C      D               F
And who does she love in her time-honoured fur?

G      G#      Am
Is it me or her?
[Verse]
Am       G                   F            E
I know a girl, she walks the asphalt world

Am       G                   F            E
She's got a friend, they share mascara, I pretend

Am                                 G
Sometimes they fly from the covers to the winter of the river

F                                     E
For these silent stars of the cinema, It's in the bloodstream, it's in the liver

Am       G                   F            E
I know a girl she walks the arse-felt world
[Chorus]
                   Dm
But where does she go?

                   Dm
And what does she do?

G       G#       Am
And how does she feel when she's next to you?

                    C      D               F
And who does she love in her time-honoured fur?

G      G#      Am
Is it me or her?
[Chorus]
                   Dm
With ice in her blood

                   Dm
And a Dove in her head

G       G#       Am
Well, how does she feel when she's in your bed?

                          C
When you're there in her arms

D                F
And there in her legs

G      G#      Am
Well I'll be in her head
[Chorus]
                   Dm
'Cos that's where I go

                   Dm
And that's what I do

G       G#       Am
And that's how it feels when the sex turns cruel

                    C D F
Yes both of us need h-e-r,

            G G#    Am
this is the asphalt world

And there in her legs

Well I'll be in her head
[Chorus]
                   Dm
'Cos that's where I go

                   Dm
And that's what I do

And that's how it feels when the sex turns cruel

Yes both of us need h-e-r,
