[C#] [F#m] Came down on a Monday, [A] somewhere [B] in [F#m] Midlands.
[E] Tasted [B] mad, [F#m] tasted flea, [E] but it don't [B] tell the [A] difference.
[E] Asked [F#m] around on a Tuesday, but got [F] nothing [B] from the [E] tea.
[A] The guy laughed [B] several [F#m] times his way, but all there is is tea.

[F#] [F#m] Looked around on Wednesday, she didn't have all the socks.
Her [E] mommy signed, they left tonight, and ruined all the [A] hearts.

Shit, Rachel, one last [A] look, but he's set in sunrise.
