A  Amaj7  F#m  E   D  A  D  E (x2) 

verse 1: Danny Brown 
A                  Amaj7 
Back back way back I used to front like I was Don Juan 
F#m                            E 
Couldn't settle down, couldn't find a girl to hold on 
D                       A 
Used to get my roll on, hit the spots and stroll on 
D                      E 
Now I found one with a hand I like to hold on 
A                              Amaj7 
Every time I'm with her, dudes always wanna stare 
F#m                      E 
I be staring back like, "you don't wanna go there." 
D                          A 
Used to didn't care, now I hit you with a chair 
D                      E 
If it just so happen, touch a string on her hair 
A                          Amaj7 
Now me and shorty wop spending more and more time 
F#m                              E 
So since she got my heart then I gotta have her spine 
D                       A 
And if any dude try to come for what's mine? - 
D                             E 
A pair of size 9's where the sun don't shine 
A                          Amaj7 
The sugar in my Kool-Aid - boo gets me through days 
F#m                              E 
Swear to God, one day I might watch her throw a bouquet 
D                             A 
Said, "Nowhere on this earth. Nowhere in this world 
D                               E 
I should ever ever ever see you stepping to my girl." 

verse 2: Heems 
A                     Amaj7 
That's my old girl, my old girl from college 
F#m                                E 
I always think about her when the leaves turn orange 
D                             A 
Yeah, we went to Wesleyan and she scoffed at Vassar 
D                                 E 
I met her at a wine and cheese, I looked right past her 
A                      Amaj7 
Apparently, she would notify me right after 
F#m                                E 
I smashed her the first night, The first pipe's the worst pipe 
D                               A 
But after I satisfied thirst like "Mmm",  
D                             E 
The pastor would satisfy the church like 
A                    Amaj7 
She lived in WestCo and studied frescoes 
F#m               E 
And head to toes, she stayed in the best clothes 
D                        A 
I represent Queens, she would move out to Brooklyn 
D                                 E 
Never thought that she would have her precious heart took-en 
A                    Amaj7 
By a shy, brown guy from Bellerose 
F#m                             E 
That stayed in shell-toes, until Hell froze 
D                          A 
Her freckles dance on her porcelain skin 
D                             E 
It's like, she's got a special force within 
A                         Amaj7 
And I been high, but ain't no higher place 
    F#m                  E 
Than alongside her by the fireplace 

D A D E 

verse 3: Despot 
A                       Amaj7 
Act like you ain't even seen me standing next to her 
F#m                                 E 
I'll tie your kicks together if you ever try to step to her 
D                                A 
Must be why you trippin' when I ask you, "Why you stressin' her?" 
D                                   E 
Passing notes and texting her, I'm 'bout to shoot the messenger 
A                              Amaj7 
Used to smash, slap 'em on the ass and go away 
F#m                               E 
They ask when Imma call 'em and I hit 'em with a poker face 
D                                A 
Coldest shoulder known to blow a load then leave 'em froze and skate 
D                                   E 
Magnum wrapper in the trash, I told them, "Nothing gold can stay." 
A                  Amaj7 
Who's she? Guess I turned over a new leaf 
F#m                              E 
Now I'm choosing groups A thru D over groupies 
D                                A 
Lose sleep, lately only counting on these two sheep 
D                           E 
You and me, baby, skipping town up on these coupe seats 
A                                Amaj7 
Must've broke the mold when they made you 
F#m                          E 
Probably broke a nail or two flippin' off these lame dudes 
D                         A 
Hollerin' in plain view, on some, "what's your name, boo?" 
D                         E 
Barely had a dollar and a dream, but it came true 

Hook: Ezra Koenig 
A                       Amaj7            F#m 
The gloves are off, the wisdom teeth are out 
         E 
What you on about? 
D               A        D             E 
I feel it in my bones, I feel it in my bones 
A                    Amaj7          F#m 
I'm stronger now, I'm ready for the house 
       E 
Such a modest mouse,  
D               A        D             E 
I can't do it alone, I can't do it alone 
A            Amaj7            F#m             E 
Every time I see you in the world, you always step to my girl
