[Intro: F, Dm, Am]
                              F  Dm, Am  
When she walks down the street,
                                 F  Dm, Am  
She knows there's people watching.
                                  F  Dm, Am  
The building fronts are just fronts
                               F  Dm, Am  
To hide the people watching her
                                   F  Dm, Am  
But she once fell through the street
                              F  Dm, Am  
Down a manhole in that bad way
                    F  Dm, Am  
The underground drip
                            F  Dm, Am

At the bottom of the ocean she dwells
                                F  Dm, Am
