Verse 1 :

And I don't haFve a job,C Cadd9 but I can show you how to Cbe a sCadd9lob Am
CSo many Fdays, wasted and Gglazed
Sometimes I laCugh aCadd9loud as I tFhink about,
You aCsking me "Please can Dyou help'"
Can't help my sFelf

Chorus 2 :

fading out!)
P.S. I'm still beginning at writing tabs so do not hesitate correcting it!
