(Intro Riff)
Verse:
I'm gonna get the gothest girl I can
Black lips and Bettie Page bangs
Horn rimmed glasses and an ass that'll pass
For a glimpse at the promised land
She's kinda into all things noir
Wants me to get a pompadour
Well, maybe baby, but she ain't no lady
She's the gothest girl I can
Chorus
Bridge:
D A
I live right, I live good like a nice boy should
E7 A
I put my trust in our Lord's plan
D A
I live right, I live just like a young boy must
B7 E7
Like I should, but I tell ya, man
D A
Somethin's gotta give 'cause the right way to live
E7 A
Isn't hittin' it, you understand
D A
I need a wild, wild lover, the kind that scares your mother
F7 E7
I need the gothest girl I can
(Solo over Chorus chords)
Verse:
Thrift store vampire chic
It's night every day of the week
Stop, stare, dead flowers in her hair
She's the gothest girl I can
She got old skool blue tattoos
And big black boots on, too
Polka dot dress and flames on her chest
She's the gothest girl I can
It's kinda hot when she calls me 'doll'
And 'daddy' at the swing dance ball
She's neat, nifty like nineteen fifty
She's the gothest girl I can
Chorus
