Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Verse 1: Am7 Let me finish before I begin Am Em Speakers cornered by this London Djinn E Gift of the gab, with no sleep Am Em Speed bumps speed dating, all week Am7 She's got a rush hour glass figure Am Em And the city boys picking up the tab for her E She's a carnival flower Am Em And she's watered by the songs the streets sing her
