F# Bbm
New York surprise me
G# F#
21 and I need something
Bbm
To pick me up out of
G# F#
The company I run with
Bbm
Emily just phoned for me to smoke with her
G#
And on her furniture
F#
Discuss how love has been
 
F# Bbm G#
I must admit I think I lost my way a bit
F# Bbm G#
Cause 6 days in I swear I lost my baby
G#
But then I wrote two tunes that

Dragged me out from nowhere
F# C#
Paid for all my cigarettes
F# C#
And whatever it took to keep you off my mind
