Key:
Bm D I got in a fight, I was indisposed
G Em I was in despite all the wicked prose
Bm D But I'm only a man
G Em And I do what I can [Verse 2]
Bm D I got friends in high places, I get out for free
G Em I got in a fight but they don't know me
Bm D Cause I'm only a man
G Em And I do what I can [Pre-Chorus]
Bm D B-E-H-A-V-E, arrest us
G Em Italiana mobster looking so precious
Bm D B-E-H-A-V-E, never more
G You gave up being good when you
Em declared a state of war [Chorus]

The Bm7 in the chorus is just a preference -- regular Bm is fine. Also watch for the B Major in the bridge. I would be remiss to not point out that Grimes has said this song is "written from the perspective of Al Pacino in The Godfather Pt 2. Except he’s a vampire who can switch gender and travel through space."
