Like Smoke

Amy Winehouse


Tom: Dm

Gm               Am           Gm
  I never wanted you to be my man
                 Fmaj7
I just need your company
Gm                             Am         
  Don't want to get dependent on  
                         Gm       Fmaj7
Your time then lose the way you love me
Gm          Bbm             F
  Like smoke, I hung around in the unbalanced
Gm       Bbm 
   Woah, ohhh! 
F
Woah

[Verse 1] (Nas)
           Gm                                         
It's not a movie, this is not a script or proofread
               Am
I'll spit some untruths to dumb fools and groupies
         Gm
Fun to punctuate, pronunciate the funds I make, amounts I take
            Fmaj7 
Put in your face, oh my mistake, you're not a floosy? Then excuse me
Gm
   Before I talk, my style introduced me
          Am
Get your name and phone number like 1-2-3
                Gm
Y'all know the story, y'all know the commentary
           Fmaj7
I kick the narrative, this is legendary
            Gm
The good Samaritan, hood thespian Like a polygamist
Bbm
with a twist, Will I marry again? Maybe, I guess
F
  I hold a lady's interest, I just met
           F
The love scholar, she the teacher's pet
                   Gm
Every other eve we meet and make each other sweat
                      Bbm
I feel triumphant, no strings, just a fling to have fun with
            Am
I be out in London, Camden, huntin' for the answers
       Dm
Why did God take away the homie? I can't stand it
       Gm
I'm a firm believer that we all meet up in eternity
C
  Just hope the big man show me some courtesy
Am
Why? 'Cause I'm deemed a heart breaker
     Dm
Like smoke, girls lean 'round a player, yayuh

 
[Chorus] (Amy Winehouse)
Gm                                  Am           Gm    
   (Yeah, yeah)  I never wanted you    to be my man
                 Fmaj7
I just need your company
Gm                            Am
  Don't want to get dependent on
               Gm               Fmaj7
Your time then lose the way you love me
Gm               Bbm                 F         Fmaj7
   Like smoke, I     hung around in the unbalanced
Gm            Bbm   F
   Woah, ohhh
Gm            Bbm        Am   Dm     
   Yeaa.........Aoo..
Gm            C          Am   Dm
  AAooo, ohhh........

[Verse 2] (Nas)
            Gm
Yo, this recession is a test It's affecting my complexion
    Am
Misdirection my affection, my concerns are bill collections
    Gm
The facts is the taxes, they after me
                  Fmaj7
Chapter three, my property, my handlers, they dealt with me improperly
Gm
I say some things I should probably keep privately
   Am
Evaluate the world bank trusts like I'm IEG
Gm
   Those fly suites and my bourgeoisie
     Fmaj7
Tall freak, she wouldn't protest with me at Wall Street
          Gm                                                 
She says, no you're so deep, I said, no let's go through it
    Bbm
Historically so ruthless feds came for Joe Louis
F
 She said, "my man, you need to laugh, sometimes"
     F
Classify me as a whore, I tell her have some wine
    Gm
You colder than penguin pussy, at her dismay
Bbm
She's thinkin' that's just so silly to say
            F
But if you really think about it hussy
       F
See a penguin, he drags his ass on the ground all day
               Gm
And there's a dragon? Is a bust in a tomb with your slush
                  Bbm
I'm through with you after I crush  so is that humorous enough?
F
  The smoke I puff, yell the car to go to Aura, Funky Buddah, Whisky Mist on Mayfair
Gm                                             Bbm
  I hope I meet Monie Love so she can show me love
                       
NYC to UK I might stay there
Am                                    
   Everybody in the club tonight say, "Yeah"
Dm                                      
   You know how me and Amy are, straight players
