Verse:
A
you gave it all i gave you reason to have
F# Eii
doubt i had to get out of there i took the stairs and
A C# D
i dont want to fight with you if i cant be the one to have you

A C# D
i memorized lines your eyes made with every squint you shot my way

E D A
put down that phone but if you want me just call out hey boy
