Chorus
[F]Standing in line to see the [C]show tonight,
And there's a [Am]light on, heavy glow.
[F]By the way I [C]tried to say I'd [Am]be there, waiting for.
[F]Dani the girl is singing [C]songs to me, Beneath the [Am]marquee, overload.
Quick single strums then muted:
[Dm*] [Dm*] Steak knife. [Dm*] [Dm*] Con job.
[Dm*] [Dm*] Card Shark. [Dm*] [Dm*] Boot cut.
[Dm*] Skin that flick, she's such a little DJ.
[Dm*] Get there quick by street but not the freeway. [Dm*] Turn that trick to make a little leeway.
[Dm*] Beat that nic but not the way that we play.
[Dm*] [Dm*] Dog town. [Dm*] [Dm*] Rib cage
Chorus
[Dm*] [Dm*] Black jack. [Dm*] [Dm*] Pawn shop.
[Dm*] [Dm*] Blood bath. [Dm*] [Dm*] Soft tail.
[Dm*] [Dm*] Dope dick. [Dm*] [Dm*] Quick pick.
[Dm*] Kiss that dyke, I know you want to hold one. [Dm*] Not on strike, but I'm about to bowl one. [Dm*] Bite that mic, I know you never stole one. [Dm*] Girls that like a story so I told one.
[Dm*] [Dm*]
[Dm*] [Dm*] Song bird. [Dm*] [Dm*] Cash back.
Chorus
[Dm*] [Dm*] Main line. [Dm*] [Dm*] Hard top.
[F]Dani the girl is singing [C]songs to me,
Beneath the [Am]marquee... of her soul.
[F]By the way I [C]tried to say I'd [Am]be there, waiting for.
[Dm*] Ooh ahh, 'guess you never meant it x 6
Chorus
[F]Dani the girl is singing [C]songs to me,
Beneath the [Am]marquee, of her soul.
[F]By the way I [C]tried to say I [Am]know you, from before
[F]Standing in line to see the [C]show tonight,
And there's a [Dm] light on, heavy glow.
[F]By the way I [C]tried to say I'd [Am]be there, waiting for[Dm].
