Chords

The C's are played longer than the G's. And the D string is hammered on incessantly. Have shown how I think the chords are played, but if you're not fussy I'd just play them how you usually would. Enjoy. Chords:

Intro: G C G C Verse 1:

      G     C           G   C
You remind me,    of cigarettes,

           G     C         G   C
The way I hold you,   in my chest,

               G   C                 G       C
The way you kiss me,    with your filter breath,

             G     C                G     C
And I keep thinking,   I'm getting over this.

Chorus:

         Am  Em               C/G
Once you had me,   you don't have me anymore,

         Am               Em                  C/G      D
I don't crave you in the morning,  or at the company store,

         Am         Em              C/G
I don't use you to escape,  in my fingers out the door,

         Am  Em               C/G
Once you had me,   you don't have me anymore.

                  C    G     C     G
But honey you're smooooooooooth (x4)

Verse 2:

           G    C        G   C
You don't make me,    coooool,

           G   C                  G    C
And I can carry     on fine without you,

           G   C             G        C
You're a spirit,   and you can't be beat,

          G     C                G     C
When I'm jonesin(?),    honey I buy cheap.

Repeat chorus (x1) Bridge:

C             Am                   D
Yeah but the truth is,    that you do,

         Am      Em                     C/G
Not the way you used to,   but I keep coming back to you,

                      C   G    C    G
Because honey you're smoooooooth

              C    G   C    G
Honey you're smooooooooth (x3)
