Watching The Detectives Chords by Elvis Costello

[F] Facts of a fan shrink wrap so correct
[Am] _ Red dots under her [F] wiggle _ _ legs _ _ _
_ [Am] She looks so good [B] that he gets [F] down and _ _ begs
She [C] is watching the _ detectives
[A] _
Ooh, [G] it's so cute _ _ _
[C] Watching the _ detectives _
[G] When they [E] shoot, [F] shoot, [D] shoot, [Am]
shoot
They beat him up until the teardrops [F] start
But he can't be wounded cause he's [C] got no heart
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
Long shot of that jumping sign
[F] _
Visible shrivels running down my [Am] spine
Cut through baby, taking off her [F] clothes
Close up of the sign that says [D] we [G] never close
[Am] She's not your junior match or _ [F] cigarette
She [Dm] pulls her eyes out with her face like a mad hat
I don't know how [Am] much more of this [F] I can take
_ She's [Am] _ _
smiling her nails while they're [F] dragging the lake
_ [Am] She is watching the _ detectives
_ Ooh, it's so [G] cute
_ _ _ Watching [C] the _ detectives
_ [G] When [E] they shoot, [F] shoot, [D] shoot, [Am] shoot
They beat him up until the teardrops [F] start
But he can't be wounded cause he's [C] got no heart
You _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ [C] _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] think you're alone until you realize you're [F] in it
Fear is here to stay, love is here, why refuse [Am] it?
They call it instant justice and it's past the legal limit
[F] Someone's scratching at the window, I [Bb] wonder who
There's a [Am] third detective from the checker, you belong to the parents
[F] You are better to hear the worst about [B] their daughters disappearing
[Em] So it's [Am] a deal, it's a miracle, get you to stay
It only took my little fingers to blow you away
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G]
Watching the _ detectives _ _ _
[C] Don't let shoot
_ _ [G] _ _
Watching [Gm] the _ detectives
I [Am] _
get so angry when the teardrops [D] start
[Bm] But you can't be wounded [F] cause you've [C] got no heart
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ Just like [F] watching the _ detectives
_ _ _ [Am]
