Chorus:
D#m                  C#m
If you love me baby let me hear you say it
B                C#m
I know I'm your favorite
D#m                         C#m
First you love me then you leave me in the basement
B                   C#m
I know I'm your favorite
G#m                  C#m
If you love me baby let me hear you say it
                 D#m    G#m C#m
I know I'm your favorite
D#m                         C#m
First you love me then you leave me on the pavement
C#m
I know I'm your favorite

F#m                     C#m
I got this girl, she's making me crazy
I nearly let her have all my babies
F#m                C#m
Pussy so good, it sets me on fire
I leave myself, I elevate higher
F#m                          C#m
You're fly girl, but you're headed to maybe
I'll take the time, treat you like a lady
F#m                           C#m
My life's a spectacle, a sad story
Perhaps I'll find my way to the glory, yes
C#m
I’m the one that took you to higher heights
That's what I was trying to do
D#m C#m
I know you had your dreams of a better life
This time we ain't making it through

Chorus

C              Dm    Em
You're getting on a plane
       F
And travelling far away
C            Dm       Em
You left me with the pain
   F
I carry it everyday
  C         Dm       Em
Who do you think you are
      F
Some kind of celebrity
Dm       F       C
Just wait and see

         Dm        Em  F
I never asked for much only that you stay true
C         Dm      Em        F
Need I remind you all the things I do for you?
C             G                Am
Who can not blame, I play the game
               D/F#
Well just for now
F                                C
I was wondering can you hold me down
F                                C
I was wondering can you hold me down
