C
She's a black cat
F C
hanging 'round my doorstep
I'll need all day tomorrow
F C
to recover from today
I was boxing with my shadow
F C
At a stoplight when the clocks changed
F
It was midnight I was mixed up
G C
When she called to drag the lake
F C
I think I'm running short on inspiration
G
She's running long on borrowed time
F
We break with speed
C G
That girl can read my racing thoughts

She asks the questions

I take the floor
G
She takes her shots
F C
Taught her a lesson

About a forced confession

We break with speed

So I'll try to keep her steady now

But steady's not her strong suit
I was raised going to church
F C
But couldn't practice what they preached
So I'm hiring a DJ

For the eve of our destruction

It was midnight I was mixed up
