The Asphalt World

[Verse]
Am       G                   F  
I know a girl, she walks the 
          E
asphalt world
Am       G                   F  
She comes to me, I supply her 
          E
with Ecstasy
Am                                 
Sometimes we ride in a taxi to the 
G
ends of the city
     F                             
Like big stars in the backseat like
 E
 skeletons ever so pretty
Am       G                   F  
I know a girl, she walks the 
          E
asphalt world

[Chorus]
                   Dm
But where does she go?
                   Dm
And what does she do?
G       G#       Am
And how does she feel when she's 
next to you?
                    C      
And who does she love in her 
D               F
time-honoured fur?
G      G#      Am
Is it me or her?

[Verse]
Am       G                   F  
I know a girl, she walks the 
          E
asphalt world
Am       G                   
She's got a friend, they share 
F            E
mascara, I pretend
Am                                 
Sometimes they fly from the covers 
G
to the winter of the river
F                           
For these silent stars of the 
          E
cinema, It's in the bloodstream, 
it's in the liver
Am       G               
I know a girl she walks the 
    F            E
arse-felt world

But where does she go?
                   Dm
And what does she do?

And how does she feel when she's

And who does she love in her

G      G#      Am
Is it me or her?

[Chorus]
                   Dm
With ice in her blood
                   Dm
And a Dove in her head
G       G#       Am
Well, how does she feel when she's 
in your bed?
                          C
When you're there in her arms
D                F
And there in her legs
G      G#      Am
Well I'll be in her head

[Chorus]
                   Dm
'Cos that's where I go
                   Dm
And that's what I do
G       G#       Am
And that's how it feels when the sex
 turns cruel
                    C D F
Yes both of us need h-e-r,
            G G#    Am
this is the asphalt world
