[C]
She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge
She studied sculpture at St Martin's College, that's [G] where I
She
[C] told me that her debt was loaded
I said, my case on a woman, Coca-Cola, she said, [G] fine
And then in 32nd year's time, she said
[F] I wanna live like common people
I wanna do whatever common people [C] do
I wanna sleep with common people
I wanna sleep with common people like [G] you
What else could I do?
I said, huh, I see what I can [C] do
I took her to the supermarket
I don't know why, but I had to start it [G] somewhere
So it started there
I
[C] said, pretend you got no money
And she just laughed and said, huh, you're so funny
I said, [G] yeah, huh, but I can't see anyone else smiling
Are you sure?
[F]
You wanna live like common people
You wanna see whatever common [C] people see
Wanna sleep with common people
You wanna sleep with common people [G] like me
But she didn't answer
Then she just smiled and held my [C] hand
I went to fly to a public show
I cut your hair and get it done
I smoked [G] some crack, some quake, some boo
And you never went to school
Still, you [C] never get it right
It's when you're late in bed at night
[G] Watching roaches climb the wall
If you told your dad he could stop it, oh [F] yeah
You'll never live like common people
You'll never do whatever common people do
[C]
Never play like common people
You'll never watch your lives fly out of [G] view
When you dance and drink and smoke
Because there's nothing else [C] to do
[G]
[C]
[G]
[F] Sing along with the common people
Sing along and it might just get you [C] through
Laugh along with the common people
Laugh along, you'll learn a lot in [G] due
And the stupid things that you do
Because you think that's all [C] it's due
You wanna live with common people
Common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with
[G]
