[A]
[C#m] Well, [E] all the parties on [F#] the streets [C#] are talking,
[E] storefront [F#] mannequins sleeping [C#] in lights.
[A] We used to [F#] smoke while we were [C#] [A] jaywalking,
like it was your birthday every other [E] Saturday night.
Knew the band, so we [C#] never paid our [E] cover,
wrote our names [F#] on the [C#] bathroom [A] tiles.
We never dressed [E] to impress all the [A] others,
they would let us in all the [A] laid-back [B] kind of style.
But boy, you know it's been a while.
[E] And I don't know why you don't [F#] take me [C#m] downtown,
like [E] you got anywhere better to [C#m] be.
[A] Park it up and give [C#m] me the gold round round,
[A] like it's the time to [E] use.
[A] I'm [E] only counting on your cancellation,
when I should be counting on you at my [C#m] door.
[A] Did you forget about [E] how we ran [A] around?
I don't know why you don't [E] take me downtown anymore.
[C#m] [E]
[A] Anymore.
[B]
[A]
[E] I got some platforms sitting in the corner.
They want to stroll [F#] on the city [C#m] side or [A] walk.
I got a [E] dress that'll show a little uh-oh,
but you ain't getting [C#m] uh-oh if you don't come [B] pick me up.
Show me off.
You might be tired, but I'm not.
[E] And I don't know why you don't take me downtown,
like you got anywhere better to [C#] be.
[A] Talk it up and give me the [E] gold round round,
[A] like it's the time to use.
[E] I'm only counting on your cancellation,
when I should be counting on you at my [C#m] door.
Did you [A] forget about how we ran around?
I don't know why you don't take me downtown [E] anymore.

[B] [A]
[F#]
[A] I don't know [Em] why you don't take me downtown,
like you got [F#] anywhere better to be.
Talk it up and give me the gold round round,
like [Gm] it's the time to use.
[E] I'm only counting on your cancellation,
when I should be counting on you at my [C#m] door.
Did [A] you forget about [F#] how we ran [C#m] around?
I [A] don't know why you don't take me downtown [E] anymore.
[F#m] [C#m] [E] Hey!
[F#m] [C#m] [A]
Yeah.
[E] Don't know why you don't take [F#] me downtown.
[E] I don't know why you don't take [F#] me downtown [C#m] [A] anymore.
I just don't get it.
