i was trying to play kids by mgmt by ear and this is what turned out. i know its not 
100% perfect but its a quick way of learning it and i think it sounds half decent.

Tuning: Standard
Capo: i play on fourth but you can do whatever suits your voice. :)
enjoy!
(btw its just Am, C, Em, G the whole time)

    Am                         C
Oi, I mean it, I mean it, I ain't trying to play around
    Em                  D
I need it, I need it, you can probably see it
    Am                          C
You'll probably think I'm gonna rip your heart to pieces
    Em                     D
Get you in the sheets, and hit it up and leave it
 Am                      C                               Em
Believe it, believe me, you are gonna say my reputation precedes me
    D
But you gotta be fair
 Am                                   C
Though you might've heard about the numbers that I sleep with
 Em                          D
That's not all I am but at least there ain't no secrets


(At the chorus i think its best to strum once but you can do what you like)

Am                   C                      Em                
         D
Mama always told me poppa always warned me don't hang around boys like you
Am                     C                   Em
Teacher always told me never to be naughty don't mess around with boys like
 D
 you

(Here i think its best to just strum down. )
Am                              C
If I had have listened wouldn't be in this position
Em                              D
If I had have listened wouldn't be in this position
Am                              C
If I had have listened wouldn't be in this position
Em                              D
If I had have listened wouldn't be in this position with you

Am
Ay yo you've heard about me right
C
You've known that my rep's renowned
Em                                   D
Your friends will tell you stay away because I've slept around
Am                              C
That's how it works though, the word will get around
Em
Back in the day it didn't faze me though
D
But lately it has kept me down
Am
And though I brought it on myself
      C
But I ain't mad about it
 Em               D
I kept count, but why the fuck did I brag about it
    Am                      C
But I'll admit it though my rep is deserved
            Em                                               D
But I'll be real I want to kill it, though cause having that rep is a curse
   Am                      C
My last girl cheated on me with a close friend
 Em                         D
That's two relationships, I had to watch them both end
  Am                           C
But see it messed with me, the two people I trusted most
 Em                         D
I could shrug it off on drunkenness, but fuck them both
 Am                               C
See that switched something inside of me
             Em                             D
A beast came alive in me and started just eating away the pride in me
 Am                            C                                Em
Because we're known to make mistakes and I've grown to make a change
                       D
I was different back then but now I ain't the same

Am                    C                      Em               
          D
Mama always told me poppa always warned me don't hang around boys like you
Am                    C                      Em
Teacher always told me never to be naughty don't mess around with boys like
D

                  D

Through you might've heard about the numbers that I sleep with
Em                             D
Yeah that may be true but it's you I wanna be with

Am                  C                      Em                 
         D
