Crash Street Kidds

(Ian Hunter)

G           A

E                     G      D      E                  G        D
See my thoughts - and see my scars- see my clothes - I dress to kill

E                  G         D
See my blood - and see my gun.

    B                      B
The Crash Street Kidds are comin' to get ya

        C           D           E
(Better run, better run, better run)

    B
The Crash Street Kidds are comin' to get ya

            C
(You'll get done, you'll get done, you'll get done)

E                    G       D       E                         G          D
Heed my faults - and heed my curse - heed my frustration - you just don't know

  E                  G                  D
A new town nothing - send for the hearse.

    B
The Crash Street Kidds are comin' to get ya

        C           D           E
(Better run, better run, better run)

    B
The Crash Street Kidds are comin' to get ya

          C             D             E
(Just for fun, just for fun, just for fun)

                                           B                       G
Tear down the wires, set you on fire - I'm getting too tired to resist,

D  Em  D  C  Bm

      E
We'll torture your flats, you keep us like rats - then you

B                            G     D         Em            D      C    Bm
Tell 'em we're brats and the press twist our fist - get me out of this mist.

E                    G     D        E
Hear me swear - hear every word - I ain't just a number

  G        D           E               G
I wanna be heard - The TV announcer he talks to the scum

    B
The Crash Street Kidds are comin' to get ya

        C           D           E
(Better run, better run, better run)

    B
The Crash Street Kidds are comin' to get ya

            C                 D                 E
(Prick your thumb, prick your thumb, prick your thumb)

                                      B
I ain't been solved, I'm uninvolved - I've been annulled

      G    D          Em       D     C   Bm
And I just can't seem to prove it.

E                                          B
You're so pure - you know the cures - just keep us poor

    G     D        Em
The juvenile delinquent bit

D  C  Bm

    B
The Crash Street Kidds are comin' to get ya

        C           D           E
(Better run, better run, better run)

    B
The Crash Street Kidds are comin' to get ya

            C               D               E

    B
The Crash Street Kidds are comin' to get ya

         C              D               E

Now you're dead, now you're dead, now you're dead AHHHHHHHHHHH)
