[Verse 1]
A                        Bm
  She's reaching for her backpack
F#m          D                         A
  Puts out a cigarette and gets on the bus
                   Bm
She's sittin' on a secret
F#m                   D
  She didn't ask for, no girl ever did
A                              Bm
  But there's a whisper in her heartbeat
F#m               D                        A
  she can hear it just enough to keep her alive
                            Bm
When she's breathing in the blowback
F#m                       D                         E
  There's nothing you can offer she ain't already tried


[Chorus]
          A         D          E
But she's breathing in the blowback
A                    D                     E
Born into poor white trash and always typecast
    F#m                    D                      E
But she's gonna break out, boy, you'd better know that

It's just a matter of time
               D   E
She fights back

Breathing in the blowback


[Verse 2]
A                     Bm
  She is sucking on a Tic-Tac
F#m               D                          A
  A good man is a mystery, she's looking for clues
                   E
Woah, you'd better check that, buddy
A                       D                             A
  'Cause the blacktop's burning up what's left of the fuse
                        Bm
And she knows where she comes from
F#m                D                            A
  Doesn't need you dragging her all through it again
                           Bm
It's like breathing in the blowback
F#m                  D                             E   E7
  It's a hijack, now how much are you willing to spend?


[Chorus]
          A         D          E
But she's breathing in the blowback
A                    D                    E
Born into poor white trash and always typecast
    F#m                    D                       E
But she's gonna break out, boy, you'd better know that

It's just a matter of time
               D   E
She fights back

Breathing in the blowback


[Interlude]
F#m   A   D


[Bridge]
F#m                 A/C#                   D
Pinwheels spinning, roller skates and red flags
F#m       A/C#       D
Breathing in the blowback
F#m                    A/C#                    D
She's gonna break out, boy, you'd better know that


[Outro]
D                    E
  Can you cast out a demon?
                    F#m   A
Can you wrangle the wind?
D                          E                       A   Bm   F#m   D
  Will you stay when she's breathing the blowback again?
