[Intro] (x4)
C C D/F# G
[Verse]
Em Em/F# B
Concrete hands picked up the telephone ring
G A Em
"Do you know who you're talking to?"
Em/F# G A
"No, and I don't care who"
Em Em/F# B
She whispered quiet terror news
G A
He didn't give a hoot
Said, "Do what you have to do"
[Chorus] (x4)
C C D/F# G
[Verse]
Em Em/F# B
All she had to do was speak
G A
Mouthpiece to cheek
Em
"Please say no more
Em/F# G A Em
I'm lying here on the ground
Em/F# B
A strip of wet concrete"
G A
Her name was just a broken sound
A stutter step you hear when you're falling down
[Chorus]
C C D/F# G
C D/F# G
Killing time won't stop this crime
C D/F# G
Killing time won't stop this crime
C D/F# G
Killing time won't stop this crime
[Bridge]
C Em Em/F# Em/G A
You better start watching what message that you send now
C Em Em/F# Em/G A
No more situations, I only go in to be kicked out
C Em Em/F# Em/G A
He got knocked down leaving like he ran into a clothesline
C Em Em/F# Em/G A
And remembered a couple of words that hid a crime
"You're just fine
A5 Asus4 A
You'll be just fine
But I'm on the other line"
[Chorus]
C C D/F# G
C D/F# G
Killing time won't stop this crime
C D/F# G
Killing time won't stop this crime
C D/F# G
Killing time won't stop this crime
