[Intro]

C Dm Em Dm

C    Dm               Em    Dm
Okay.....I see how it is now
                       C                   Dm
You don't have time to play with me anymore
              Em   Dm
That’s how it goes, I guess
C         Dm
Fuck the rest
Em       Dm
Be right there honey!


[Verse]

          C               Dm
I’m gonna take my time to say
Em           Dm
Take my time today
          C                  Dm
I’m gonna take what comes my way
Em                  Dm
Take what they give me

        C             Dm
Yeah, I want my money now
    Em          Dm
But he is not around
           C             Dm
You better hold my money safe
Em                Dm
What's your emergency?


[Chorus]

            Gsus4  G
And for the first time
Cmaj7  Fmaj7
In my life
         Gsus4  G  Cmaj7 Fmaj7
I’m gonna get...my-self right
              Dm
Just get into trouble
                G
Be there on the double


[Verse]

C                    Dm
Place your bets this time
     Em            Dm
Decides to let it ride
       C               Dm
I tr-I tried to take a roll
        Em          Dm
But the dice are on parole
  C                    Dm
I won't look down your dress
        Em             Dm
Bet you bend down as a test
  C                       Dm
I cannot wait to chase it all
        Em                   Dm
Yeah, I saw it in my crystal ball
C                 Dm
Friday night, the shining light
    Em           Dm
The secret for a spy
C       Dm
I got a better idea
     Em             Dm
I'll bet you on the side
C             Dm
When I get up in your face
    Em           Dm
You know it’s no surprise
   C                 Dm
Ah baby, why's it so hard to read 
    Em             Dm
the sentence in my eyes?


[Chorus]

            Gsus4  G
And for the fourth time
Cmaj7          Fmaj7
Chains on your legs
            Gsus4
It’s been a while
                 G
Did this all for you my baby doll
    Cmaj7        Fmaj7
You ignored your life
            Dm
We’ll do it together
              G
I’ll be there whenever


[Verse]

        C             Dm
Oh, you took a minute break
         Em                 Dm
And said thumbs up, they’re okay
             C               Dm
I’m going to watch the tidal wave
     Em            Dm
It’s hard to chase away

C Dm Em Dm
ohhhhhh
C Dm Em Dm
Ohhhhhh



[Outro]

Cmaj7 Am

Cmaj7 Am
(Hard to chase away)
Cmaj7 Am
(It’s hard to chase away)
Cmaj7 Am
