[Verse]
[Am]I know a [G]girl, she walks the [F]asphalt world[E]
[Am]She comes[G] to me, I supply her[F] with Ecstasy[E]
[Am]Sometimes we ride in a taxi to the [G]ends of the city
Like [F]big stars in the backseat like [E]skeletons ever so pretty
[Am]I know a [G]girl, she walks the [F]asphalt world[E]
[Chorus]
But where does she [Dm]go?
And what does she d[Dm]o?
[G]And how [G#]does she [Am]feel when she's next to you?
And who does she lov[C]e in he[D]r time-honoured [F]fur?
[G]Is it m[G#]e or her[Am]?
[Verse]
[Am]I know a [G]girl, she walks the [F]asphalt world[E]
[Am]She's got[G] a friend, they shar[F]e mascara, I [E]pretend
[Am]Sometimes they fly from the covers [G]to the winter of the river
[F]For these silent stars of the cinema, [E]It's in the bloodstream, it's in the liver
[Am]I know a [G]girl she walks the a[F]rse-felt worl[E]d
[Chorus]
But where does she [Dm]go?
And what does she d[Dm]o?
[G]And how [G#]does she [Am]feel when she's next to you?
And who does she lov[C]e in he[D]r time-honoured [F]fur?
[G]Is it m[G#]e or her[Am]?
[Chorus]
With ice in her blo[Dm]od
And a Dove in her h[Dm]ead
[G]Well, ho[G#]w does sh[Am]e feel when she's in your bed?
When you're there in her a[C]rms
[D]And there in her [F]legs
[G]Well I'[G#]ll be in[Am] her head
[Chorus]
'Cos that's where I[Dm] go
And that's what I d[Dm]o
[G]And that[G#]'s how it[Am] feels when the sex turns cruel
Yes both of us need [C]h-[D]e-[F]r,
this is the [G]as[G#]phalt [Am]world
