I can't wait to get away from you,
Abm7 B13 (lift littlefinger)

Now you don't want me in the flat when you're home at night,
Dbm7 Gb7
But we're best friends, right?

Bridge 1:

Bmaj7 Bbm7
You're Stephanie, and I'm Paulette;
Eb7 Abm7
You know what all my faces mean.
Bmaj7 Bbm7 walk down to Abm7
And it's easy to smoke it up; forget,
Dbm7 Gb7
Everything that happened in be-tween.

Emaj9 Eb7
Nicky’s right, when he says I can't win,
Abm7 B13 (lift littlefinger)

I can't even think about how you feel in-side,
Dbm7 Gb7
But we're best friends right?

I don't like the way you say my name,
Abm7 B13 (lift littlefinger)
You're always looking for someone to blame.

Now you want me to suffer, just 'cos you were born white,
Dbm7 Gb7
But we're best friends right?

Dbm7 Gb7
Everything that happened in be-tween.

So I had love for you, when I was four,
Abm7 B13 (lift littlefinger)
And there's no one I wanna smoke with more.

Some-day I'll buy the Rizla, so you get the draw.
