Rhythm tips ↓-↓↑-↑↓↑

[E] [F#m] [A] [E]Smoke [F#m]alarm went off at [A]9 [E]I woke up, [F#m]wiped the sleep [A]out of my eyes She [E]left a note [F#m]I’ll be back in 5′[A] Well, [E]I’m still [F#m]waiting for that [A]moment to arrive,

[C#m]I was told to [A]put my job in front of [B]you [C#m]But it won’t [A]hold me [B]like you do

But I do it for the [E]love, waiting on the [F#m]gold rush. Keep it on the [A]edge, smoking on a roll up. When I see my [E]friends, all they say is [F#m]hold up. And remember the [A]time, when we were in [E]school. Listening to [F#m]grown ups, didn’t learn a [A]thing. But then again you know what, you know how to [E]sing. But you don’t know [F#m]anything, [A]other than that.

So maybe you should learn to [E]love her [F#m]Like, like the [A]way Maybe you should learn to [E]love her [F#m]Like, like the [A]way Maybe you should learn to [E]love her [F#m]Like, like the [A]way And maybe you should learn to [E]love her [F#m]Like, like the [A]way You want to be loved

[E]I never [F#m]told her that I [A]liked The [E]way she [F#m]dances slightly [A]out of time [E]And pretends [F#m]she knows the [A]words To a song she’s never heard [E]But I [F#m]tell her all the [A]time

[C#m]I was [A]told to [B]put my job in front of you [C#m]But it won’t [A]hold me [B]like you do
