Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
F#               Bm
Anytime she come around
                         F#
Something is about to go down
                    Bm
Listen to the siren sound
                      F#
Wake up wake up right now
                         Bm
'Cause if I was to go to sleep
                              F#
Catch me dreaming of a way to creep
                               Bm
Trouble always seems to follow me....Oh don't follow me now

But I'm a man and I still get weak
