Inside streets, you've been walking, I've been walking too
[C] [G] So you know the faces, you know how they'll flirt with you
Well I know my favorite [C] fragrance, [G] well it's from all around my mouth
you, somewhere like [C] your [G] last [Am] night we spent [C] together
Crisscross laces, you have the center, you have the cinnamon in the center
you [G] should just pick up yourself and time yourself and
new maybe
Inside streets, you've been walking, I've been walking too
[C] [G] So you know the faces, you know how they'll flirt with you
Well I know my favorite [C] fragrance, [G] well it's from all around my mouth
you, somewhere like [C] your [G] last [Am] night we spent [C] together
