[Intro]
Em Bm
Em Bm
[Verse]
Em Bm I want a girl to make a mess Em G To do no wrong she must confess Em Bm And then perhaps hitch up her dress C G D 'Cos when the flashbulbs explode C G D She's such a sensitive soul… Em Bm Em Bm Do, do, do, do, do, do, do... [Verse]
Em Bm I want a girl who is helpless and frail Em G Who won't pull on my ponytail Em Bm I want a girl who has no past Em She's made up now G But that won't last C G D 'Cos when she sits on my knee C G D I hear her whisper to me [Chorus]
Em "Can't you see, I could be,
Bm
I could be your
Em
spooky girlfriend…
Bm Em Bm
Do, do, do, do....
Em Bm I could be, I could be your
Em Bm
spooky girlfriend…"
Em Bm Em Bm Do, do, do, do, do, do, do... [Verse]
Em And the broken toys are
Bm
scattered in the attic
Em Newspapers play with
Bm
the words of the fanatic
Em While the greeting cards are
Bm
your most poetic lyric
Em And the flat champagne is
G
sweet sugar syrup
[Break]
Em Bm Em Bm Em I want to paint you with

glitter and with dirt
Bm Picture you with innocence and hurt Em The shutter closes,

exposes the shot
Bm She says, "Are you

looking up my skirt?"
C When you say "No" B She says "Why not?" [Verse]
Em Bm I want a girl to turn my screw Em G To wind my watch, to buckle my shoe Em Bm And if she won't her mother will do C G D But when she does as she's told C G D We'll all turn platinum and gold C G D But when she sits on my knee C G D I hear her whisper to me Em "Can't you see?" Bm E Bm "I could be your spooky girlfriend"
