West Side Story [9] Gee, Officer Krupke chords
Start Jamming...
See them cops, they believe everything they read in the papers about us cruddy JDs.
So that's what we give them.
Something to believe in.
Hey, you!
Who, me, Officer Krupke?
Yeah, you!
Give me one good reason for [B] not dragging you down to the station house, you punk!
Dear, kind Sergeant Krupke, you [E] gotta understand,
It's just our bringin' up key [F] that gets us out of hand.
Our mothers all are junkies, [Bb] our fathers all are drunks.
[G] Golly, [Gb] Moses, [B] naturally we're punks.
Gee, Officer Krupke, we're very upset.
We [Gb] never had the love that every child ought to get.
[Em] We ain't no [B] delinquents, we're [Ab] misunderstood.
[Ab] Deep down inside us, there is good.
There [G] is good.
There is good.
There is [D] good.
There is unsatisfied.
[A] Like inside, the worst [B] of us is good.
Yeah!
[B]
[C] Such a good story!
Let me tell it to the world!
Just tell it to the judge!
Let me [G] tell it to the world!
Bl [E] -bl-bl-bl-bl-bl-bl-bl-bl.
Dear, [C] kindly judge, Your Honor, [Fm] my parents treat me rough,
With [G] all their marijuana, [Gb] they won't give me a puff.
They didn't wanna have me, [Ebm] but somehow I was had,
[Eb] Leaf [Ab] on [G] lizards, that's why [C] I'm so bad.
[F] Officer [C] Krupke, you're really a square!
[G] This boy don't need a judge, he [C] needs an analyst care!
[F] It's just his [Fm] neurosis [G] that [A] oughta be quite!
[G] He psychologically [C] disturbed!
I'm disturbed!
[Ab] We're disturbed, we're disturbed, [Eb] we're the most disturbed!
[Bb] Like we're psyched alive, we're [C] pretty disturbed!
[Em]
[Db] Hey, hey!
In the opinion [Ab] of the escort, this child is depraved.
On account he ain't had a normal home.
Hey, I'm depraved on account I'm deprived!
So take him to a head shrinker.
[Db] You!
To me?
Head shrinker!
[Ab]
[F]
[Ab] My [Db] daddy beats my mommy, my [D] mommy clobbers me.
My grandpa is a commie, [G] my grandma pushes tea.
