   My    friend's flesh and blood
D5 Dsus4 D    Dsus2  D5   
   She   lies over - time 
D5 Dsus4 D        Dsus2  D
   You’d nail her if you could
D5     Dsus4 D     Dsus2   D5   [ C/D ]
   But she   says, love me for my mind
C/D         D*
      In my time, 
C/D                D*
      I'm not that kind

D5 Dsus4 D     Dsus2    D
   So    rude, she's no good
D5 Dsus4 D      Dsus2 D5         [ C/D ]
     But as she says,   it pays to win
C/D           D*
      Play to win
C/D                D*
      She plays to win
