Frank Black - Deamon Girl

intro & bridge : C# A
verses : E A F# A

i had a garage full of 66 guitars
each night i’d play them underneath the starry stars
there was much dancing and so many friends
i never thought , i never thought , i never thought that it would end .

but then one morning i saw one of them was gone
just 65 guitars to play my happy songs
then 64 then several more till 17
i didn’t know a demon stole them when i dreamed

a demon girl
a demon girl
demon girl

the parties ended , as my songs grew very dark
the guitars stolen rained a tear down on my spark
i blamed my druggie pals , but suspects they increase
i blamed my plumber , and i even blamed my priest

demon girl

thai chung , my gardener , said , “stay awake this night
hide in the trashcan , cause there’s something just ain’t right”
and then i saw her , she was from another world
a demon girl , so beautiful , a demon girl , a demon

a demon girl
a demon girl
she’s a demon girl

i said , “please marry me , and bring back my guitars”
she said , “i will , but first , talk to my devil pa”
and after dinner he said , “promise me this night
you’ll never let this demon girl out of your sight”

we had a happy home , and parties that were wild
had our own tv show , and we even had a child
but then one morning i took up my fishing pole
and when i got back , she had moved to idaho

she was a demon girl
a demon girl
a demon girl
she was a demon girl
a demon girl
