[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 1]
            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       Cmaj7    Fmaj7/C
And for the first time in my   life
            Gsus4 G Cmaj7 Fmaj7/C
I’m gonna get   myself  right  
                  Am
Just get into trouble
                   Am/G
Be there on the double 

[Verse 2]
C                    Dm
Place your bets this time
     Em            Dm
Just has to let it ride
      C               Dm
I trI tried to take a roll
        Em            Dm
But the dice are on parole
  C                    Dm
I won't look down your dress
          Em             Dm
I 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

[Bridge]
C               Dm
Friday night is shining like
  Em           Dm
A 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
Ah baby,
            Dm               Em             Dm
why's it so hard to read the sentence in my eyes?
            Gsus4 G
And for the first time

[Chorus]
Cmaj7              Fmaj7/C
Chains on your legs
          Gsus4
I spent a while
                G
Then decided on you
My baby doll
    Cmaj7            Fmaj7/C
You ignored your life
                   Am
We’ll do it together
                     Am/G
I’ll be there whenever 

[Verse 3]
        C             Dm
Oh, you took a minute break
          Em                    Dm
And said, thumbs up, they’re okay.
            C               Dm
I’m gonna watch the tidal wave
       Em             Dm
It’s hard to chase away
C Dm Em Dm C Dm Em Dm

Got  to chase away
Am7 Cmaj7 Em7 Fmaj7
Am7 Cmaj7 Em7
Am7
Hard to chase away
Cmaj7 Em7 Fmaj7

Am7 Cmaj7 Em7 Fmaj7
