by Strokes


First Tab let me know how it is and of any corrections thanks



Chords used: , , , , , and 



Intro:  G - C - G - C listen to song for rhythm




 I didn't take no shortcuts
I spent the money that I saved up

 Oh, Momma running out of luck
Like my sister, don't give a fuck

 I wanna steal your innocence
To me, my life, it don't make sense

 Those strange manners, I loved 'em so
"Why won't you wear your new trench coat?"

 -  -  - 


 I should've worked much harder
I should've just not bothered

 I never show up on weekdays
Something that you learned yesterday

 "Drive you to work; you'll be on time
These little problems they're not yours and mine,"

 "Come on and listen to what I say
I've got some secrets that'll make you stay"

 I just want to turn you down
I just want to turn you around

 Oh, you ain't never had nothin' I wanted, but...
I want it all     
                  
I just can't figure out...
I'm Nothing

G - G - G - G listen to song for pattern

    
And all together it went well
    
We made pretend we were best friends

Then she said, "Oh, you're a freak"
       
"They ordered me to make mistakes"
  
Together again, like the beginning
   
It all works somehow in the end
    
The things we did, the things you hide

 Oh for the record it's between you and I

 Oh, I didn't take no shortcuts
I spent the money that I saved up

 Oh, Momma running out of luck
Like my sister, don't give a fuck

 I wanna steal your innocence
To me my life, it just don't make any sense
 
 Those strange manners, I loved 'em so
"Why won't you wear your new trench coat?"


 I just want to misbehave
I just want to be your slave

 Oh, you ain't never had nothing I wanted, but...
I want it all
                  
I just can't figure out...
I'm Nothin'

G - G - G - G same as berfore


    
And all together it went well
   
We made pretend we were best friends

Then she said, "Oh, I can wait"
      
They ordered me to make mistakes
  
Together again like the beginning
   
It all works somehow in the end
    
The things we did, the things you hide

And for the record, it's between you and I
