[repeat intro and sing]:
Good gA#sus2irls walk fast in groups of three
Fast gFadd11irls walk slow on side streets
SometFimes the girls who walk alone
Aren't fCound for days or weeks
A#sus2On the busy boulevards
Bad bFadd11oys call you names and cruise you hard
BFullies laugh and grin and beat
Your sCoft skin against the cold concrete
A#sus2Fadd11
I'm 3,000 miles away
FI'm 3,000 miles awCay
A#sus2Fadd11
I'm 3,000 miles away
FI'm 3,000 miles awCay
KnA#sus2ock you down, make you bleed
MFadd11ake you cry and make you think
I'll dFie here soon if I don't leave
If CI don't leave, if I don't leave
This A#sus2patch of sky and native ground
Take tFadd11urns to push and pull you down
Forget trFying to live and be happy
CI'll take safe and terror free
Chorus...
HA#sus2it the floor, shut off the lights,
Fadd11As the bullets fly
TFerror rules the dark night,
DCogs hang from the trees
This trA#sus2aining ground for punks and thieves,
HFadd11ome of poor white retirees
Who dFidn't bail and couldn't sell
When cColor made the grass less green
Chorus...

Chorus...
Bad gA#sus2irls run fast leave home alone
No trFadd11ace or clue of where they've gone
SometFimes these girls are never found
NCever found, never found
