Straight As A Die

C    F  G   C    F  G   C

[Verse]
                       F           
She roots out her best earrings 
    G     C
with a comb
                          F        
The ones that go with her rowdy red
 G     C
 hair
                           F       
Weaves her way between the plastic 
        G      C
and the bones
Leaves all her empty evenings 
F                  G  C
hanging in the air

[Chorus]
And he don't mind that she's a 
F              G     C
short-tempered girl
                           F       
He don't mind that she may soon say
     G    C
 goodbye
He don't mind 'cause she's got 
F            G
something he loves
         C                 F  G   
She's as straight as a die
C    F  G   C


[Verse]
                     F            
She sees the men out changing the 
G      C
state
                             F   
Knows they stoop, though her eyes 
          G        C
are half-drowned
                             F     
Hear the steeple say, it's a 
       G      C
quarter past eight
Continúa después del anuncio
Moves on in a hurry, well, she's a 
F             G     C
long way from town

[Chorus]
And he don't mind that she's a 
F              G     C
short-tempered girl
                           F       
He don't mind that she may soon 
      G    C
make him cry
He don't mind 'cause she's got 
F            G
something he loves
         C                 F  G
She's as straight as a die
C                 F  G
Straight as a die

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
                            G
We won't get away from this evil
                   F
No matter how hard we try
    Em                F
The truth is there to catch us
    Em                      F      
The truth is gonna save our lives
G   C


[Verse]
                      F         G 
He's in a thrill of anticipation
  C

So glad he bought something small to
 F              G     C
 give her for a gift
He feels kind of silly in case she 
F                      G   C
thinks he's having her on
                              F    
All he meant was, she's got a 
          G     C
friend she can kiss

[Chorus]
And he don't mind that she's a 
F              G     C
short-tempered girl
                           F       
He don't mind that she may soon 
     G    C
have to fly
He don't mind 'cause she's got 
F            G
something he loves
         C                 F  G
She's as straight as a die
C                 F  G
Straight as a die
         C                 F  G
She's as straight as a die
C
Straight as a die
