C#                     G#/C
I said I'd call the policewoman
A#m                         F#
If these nightmares didn't stop coming
When she passed by, I didn't ask for nothing
Except her time and that was good enough for me

There's panic on the streets
outside of this dirty old town
A coat of silence feeds the violence all around
But I see her boots shine bright
The bullets burn the heavy sky
and they cower out of fear
My policewoman

Chorus:
C#
When I hear those sirens coming
G#
My iron maiden's running
A#m
To serve and protect my love
          F#
And the lights shine red and blue
I see those vandals running
My iron maiden's coming
She whips her nightstick
And my heart shines red and blue

There's still a stone cold
fear in this neighborhood
I tried to call, but it was no good
A policeman came, he said the news was bleak
She caught a bullet in the back
trying to rescue these streets

Chorus:
When I hear those sirens coming
My iron maiden's running
To serve and protect my love
And the lights shine red and blue
I see those vandals running
My iron maiden's bleeding
She fights for life
And the lights shine red and blue

My policewoman
My policewoman
My policewoman
My policewoman

Chorus:
When I hear those sirens coming
My iron maiden's running
To serve and protect my love
And the lights shine red and blue
I see those vandals running
My iron maiden's bleeding
She fights for life
My policewoman

She protects me from the pain
She protects me from the pain
From the pain, from the pain,
from the pain, from the pain
From the pain, from the pain,
from the pain, from the pain
