Verse 1

GI'm (320003@1)on a bus. I'm in a rush.
BmI (x24432@1)would catch a cab, but I'm not that fussed.
GAnother (320003@1)day. Another dime.
       BmI (x24432@1)know some might say, that I'm wasting time.
GAnd (320003@1)then at night, another fight,
      BmAnd (x24432@1)I don't know what it means but I'd never cause a scene.

C7 (x32310@1)                     EbIt's (x43121@3)time to sit back and smile.
C7 (x32310@1)                     EbI've (x43121@3)had a smoke and it's been a while.

It's been a while.

      BmDid (x24432@1)I pay for the girl lying next to me?
GI (320003@1)had a love, but little luck.
        BmI (x24432@1)don't bleed any more 'cause my heart's been crushed.
GAnd (320003@1)now I'm free - lucky me.
        BmYeah (x24432@1)my girlfriend was a bore, she don't love me anymore.
