[repeat intro and sing]:
Good g
irls walk fast in groups of three
Fadd11
Fast girls walk slow on side streets
Somet
imes the girls who walk alone
Aren't f
ound for days or weeks
On the busy boulevards
Fadd11
Bad boys call you names and cruise you hard
B
ullies laugh and grin and beat
Your s
oft skin against the cold concrete
I'm 3,000 miles away
I'm 3,000 miles aw
ay
I'm 3,000 miles away
I'm 3,000 miles aw
ay
Kn
ock you down, make you bleed
Fadd11
Make you cry and make you think
I'll d
ie here soon if I don't leave
If
I don't leave, if I don't leave
This
patch of sky and native ground
Fadd11
Take turns to push and pull you down
Forget tr
ying to live and be happy
I'll take safe and terror free
Chorus...
H
it the floor, shut off the lights,
Fadd11
As the bullets fly
T
error rules the dark night,
D
ogs hang from the trees
This tr
aining ground for punks and thieves,
Fadd11
Home of poor white retirees
Who d
idn't bail and couldn't sell
When c
olor made the grass less green
Chorus...

Appl
es are filled with razor blades
Fadd11
But fools and innocents believe
That l
ove and faith and truth and beauty
Can m
ake a garden of this human factory
Chorus...
Bad g
irls run fast leave home alone
Fadd11
No trace or clue of where they've gone
Somet
imes these girls are never found
N
ever found, never found
