District Social Club - Selfish (Acoustic)
[Intro]
F#m A C#m D
[Verse 1]
F#m
She sees right through me
A
I said how're you getting home?
C#m D
She winks and says she doesn't know
F#m
Well you can come back to mine
A
But my room's looking a mess
C#m D
There's empty bottles on the bedside table
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m A
I've been meaning to clean it
C#m D
Just been too busy looking for you
F#m A
I know I'm drunk but I mean it
C#m D
I wasn't this happy before I met you
[Verse 2]
F#m
For me it's been a while
A
I don't do this all the time
C#m
No it's not another lie
D
She rolls her eyes
F#m
She asks me "what are those?"
A
Those pills they're mine
C#m
I don't take them all the time
D
But I should
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m A
I've been meaning to clean it
C#m D
Just been too busy looking for you
F#m A
I know I'm drunk but I mean it
C#m D
I wasn't this happy before I met you
[Chorus]
F#m A
'Cause I'm selfish, I can't help it
C#m D
Any chance I get I'll be talking to you
F#m A
'Cause I'm selfish, but I'm helpless
C#m D
Any chance I get I'll be falling in to you
[Verse 2]
F#m A
On those nights when I feel alone
C#m D
You always pick up your phone and come straight to me
F#m A
When we fight and you say you've had enough
C#m D
I'd always call your bluff and you'd hate it
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m A
I've been meaning to leave it
C#m D
Just been to busy using you
F#m A
I know I'm drunk but I mean it
C#m D
I wasn't this happy before I met you
[Chorus]
F#m A
'Cause I'm selfish, I can't help it
C#m D
Any chance I get I'll be talking to you
F#m A
'Cause I'm selfish, but I'm helpless
C#m D
Any chance I get I'll be falling in to you
[Outro]
F#m A
C#m D
Any chance I get I'll be falling in to you.
F#m A
C#m D
Any chance I get I'll be falling in to you.
F#m A
C#m D
Any chance I get I'll be falling in to you.
F#m
