G#Hanging in-between your teeth
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F#It's not a lot but it's G#sweet when it's A#msimple
F#Don't overthink it, just G#dive in and A#mlet go
F#Don't compliG#cate, I A#mlike you babe
[Chorus]
F#I like the way G#my A#mcar smells with your F#cigarettes in my ashtrayG#  A#m

So I F#turn to you and say "Can you G#promise me A#mnow

From F#back when you were in a banG#dA#m  
You laughed so hard it F#hurt
But I G#like how that A#mguitar lG#ooked when it was in your hands
[Pre-Chorus 2]
