Smiling Phases

Traffic

Ab (N.C.; 1-bar drum fill)
Verse 1:

Eb(2:/Bb) Ab/Eb
Do yourself a favor
 EbAb/Eb
        Wake up to your mind
 EbAb/Eb
        Life is what you make it
 EbAb/Eb
        You see but still you're blind
 FBb/FFBb/F
        Get yourself together, give before you take
 FBb/F
        You'll find out the hard way
 FGCB
        Soon you're going to break, yeah yeah yeah   

Chorus 1:

 Bb
        Smiling phases, showing traces
 Eb
        Even when they bust you
 Bb
        Keep on smiling through and through
 EbDbCb
        You'll be amazed at the gaze on their faces
 AbmBb
        As they sentence you

(repeat intro)

Verse 2:

You don't need a lawyer
When you're in a fix
Someone gets the payoff
You're friends are full of tricks
Happiness is something
That you just can't find
Own up to the truth girl
You're living with your mind

Chorus 2:

Sugar daddy brings you flowers
You just hang him up and
Keep him waiting there for hours
And you should see the look on his face
As you slide down the rail
