Cm7                            Eb             Gm7 
I was cool in them streets and streets y'all 
Fm7                            Bb Cm7 
Yeah I was cooling them clubs 
Cm7                Fm7                    Eb     Dm7 
Real talk I wasn't thinking nothing 'bout love 
Cm7           F7    Gm7 Fm7                           Gm7 
I didn't want nobody    tryin' to partake in my stuff 
Cm                                F7   Cm7          Ebmaj7 
I thought an occasional one-night stand    would be enough 
Ebmaj7 Bb6        Eb6 
Oh but one day I, I met this girl and she ruined my philosophy 
Eb6 
It caught me by surprise 
Fm7                      Cm7           Gm7   Fm7 Gm7 
And now my heart skips a beat when she comes a   round 
Eb6 
I never thought that I'd be ready to settle down 
Eb6                            Fm7   Gm7 
See I was about to find myself alone, 
Ab6           Eb     Dm7    Cm7 
But I found myself a love

It's gonna take a minute to evolve 
Fm7                        Bb              Cm7 
But I'd rather have a love than nothing at all 
Cm7                        Eb 
I'm ready for a love of my own yeah 
Cm7 
Can't stay in this place forever 
Cm                 Gm7 Fm7 
Even though I want to, I just see us together 
Gm7 Eb6 
I'd rather have a love, than live a life alone 
Dm7 
Yeah Yeah Yeah 


Cm7                     Eb          Gm7 
See, I was raised by a good one 
Gm7   Bb                      F7          Gm7 
Momma told me what a real man should be 
Cm7               Fm7                     Eb  Dm7 
She said son pick one, and treat her like me 
Cm7                   Gm7         Fm7                        Bb7 
But I took all of her wisdom, and used it for selfish gains 
Bb7   Cm7                                    Ebmaj7 
And I know if she saw this pimpin', she's be ashamed 
Eb        Ab 
But now I found her

On the one hand I could chose to be the guy

true love and affection
