Arctic Monkeys
[Intro]
C Em Dm
[Verse 1]
CWell this is a good Emidea he wouldn't do it if iDmt wasn't
He wouldn't do it if it wasn't one.
CWell my friend fancEmies you, oh what a way to beDmgin it all
You said it's always exciting words to hear
[Pre-Chorus]
And we Emwoke up together not quite realising Dmhow
Awkwardly stretching and yawEmning, its always hard in the mDmorning
[Chorus]
EmAnd I suppose that's the price you Dmpay
Oh it isn't what it Emwas, she's thinking he looks different tDmoday
and oh there's nothing left to guess now.
[Solo]
C Em Dm
[Verse 2]
CYou left before the lights cEmame on because you didn't want to Dmruin
All the lust that was brewing before he absolutely had to
CAnd how can you wake Emup with someone you don't lDmove?
And not feel slightly fazed by it oh, he had a struggle
[Pre-Chorus]
And you Emwoke up together not quite realising Dmhow
Awkwardly stretching and yawnEming it's always hard in the morDmning
[Chorus]
EmAnd I suppose that's the price you Dmpay
Oh it isn't what it Emwas, she's thinking he looks different tDmoday
and oh there's nothing left to guess now.
[Bridge]
CQuick let's leave before the lAmights come on
Cos then you Dmdon't have to seeAm  
Cos then you Dmdon't have to see what you'Fve done
CQuick let's leave before the lAmights come on
Cos then you Dmdon't have to seeAm  
Cos then you Dmdon't have to see what you'Fve done
[Instrumental]
Am G F E
I'll walk you up, what time's the bus come?
