Song:  Boy looked at Johnny
Band:  The Libertines
Album: Up The Bracket
VERSE: 
     E             E6     A     B
The boy looked at Johnny 
              E             E6   A    B
and said "My word that was fun"
When he did it with his hat on
Like in a saddle with his gun
We're in slow motion eating breakfast
At the side view hotel
Oh slipping down fine
Everything's going so well
PRE-CHORUS:
 E               E7
"aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
CHORUS:
               C#7                       F#m

VERSE 2:
The boy looked at Johnny
Said "Don't you know who I think I am"
