If you've seen the acoustic version robbers, you'd see that Matty plays some chords that resemble power
chords. I'm not sure what they are called exactly. (Please comment below so I can improve this tab, thanks!)
This is my first tab so be as harsh as you want :P
(These are not the exact names, please correct me)
*MUTE* STRINGS G, B, (high) e.
* = One strum
If you are trying to learn this, try playing along to the acoustic version it will help!

CAPO ON 2ND FRET
*PALM MUTED THROUGH OUT THE WHOLE SONG EXCEPT WHEN PLAYING THE "Am" TRANSITION CHORD.*
[Verse 1]
She had a face
straight out
a magazine
God only knows
but you'll ne
ver leave her
Her balaclava
is starting to
chafe
When she gets
his gun he's b
egging, "Babe
stay, stay, st
ay, stay, stay
."
[Chorus]
I'll give him
one more time
We'll give you
one more figh
t
Said one more
line
There'll be a
riot, cause I
know you
[Verse 2]
Now if you nev
er shoot, you'
ll never know
And if you nev
er eat, you'll
never grow
You've got a p
retty kinda di
rty face
And when you'r
e leaving your
home she's be
gging you, "St
ay, stay, stay
, stay, stay."
[Chorus]
I'll give you
one more time
We'll give you
one more figh
t
Just said one
more line
There'll be a
riot, will I k
now you?
[Verse 3]
Well, now that
you've got yo
ur gun
It's much hard
er now the pol
ice have come
Now shoot him
if it's what y
ou're worth
And if you jus
t take off you
*
r mask
To find out th
at everything'
s gone wrong,
wrong, wrong.
[Outro]
Now everybody'
s dead
And they're dr
iving past my
old school
And he's got h
is gun, he's g
ot his suit on
She says, 'Bab
e, you look so
cool'
You look so co
ol, you look s
o cool, cool,
cool, cool
You look so co
ol, you look s
o cool, you lo
ok so cool, co
ol, cool, cool
, cool
