Black gloves on [C7]my [A]hands ballie on [C7]my [A]face
Workouts on [C7]my [A]feet quiet in the car
The tires, them [A]a screech

It's finally in my [A]ɾeach
I've been thinking bout that money and
It's finally in my [A]ɾeach
Mike Skinner you [A7can find me in the stɾeets
There's no sheρherd near the bush
When I'm hiding from police
There's no weapon [C7]when they look

Burning weed and [Bm]getting caught up in
