Don't be afraid with the quickness you get laid for your
Family get paid it's the wrong way

Still ruins her makeup I never wanted...
Notes:
- You can see that the Verse repeats. The chord patterns are:
A G, F# E, B A, E D, and this is played twice.
- I separated the Outro because it doesn�t follow the pattern.
You�d expect to play A G at that point.
- I don�t usually play all the strings I�ve indicated here. I
find just playing the last two strings sounds good enough.
