Common People Teclado

	  

A 
She came from Greece she's got a thirst for knowledge           
                                                              E 
She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College, that's where I caught her eye  
A 
She told me that her Dad was loaded, I said in that case I'll have rum and coca cola  
         E                                        
She said fine and in thirty seconds time she said 

D                                      
I want to live like common people, I want to do whatever common people do 
A                                                                           E 
I want to sleep with common people, I want to sleep with common people like you 
                                                        A 
Well what else was I to do, I said I'll see what I can do  

A                                                                   E 
I took her to a supermarket, I don't know why but I had to start it somewhere, so I started it there 
A 
I said pretend that you've got no money, she just laughed and said oh you're so funny  
       E 
I said yeah, well I don't see anyone smiling here  

D 
You want to live like common people, you want to see whatever common people see 
A                                                                               E 
You want to sleep with common people, you want to sleep with common people like me 
                                                       A 
But she didn't understand, she just smiled and held my hand 

A 
Rent a flat above a shop, cut your hair and get a job   
           E 
Smoke some fags and play some pool, pretend you never went to school  
A  
Still you'll never get it right, cause when you're laid in bed at night  
         E 
Watching roaches climb your wall, if your Daddy called he could stop it all  

D 
You'll never live like common people, you'll never do what common people do 
A                                                                                     E 
You'll never fail like common people, you'll never watch your life slide right out of view,  
                                                                      A 
And you can dance and drink and screw because there's nothing else to do  

D 
Sing along with the common people, sing along with the common people thru 
A                                                                               E 
Laugh along with the common people, laugh along even though they're laughing at you  
                                                                 A 
And the stupid things that you do because you think that poor is cool 

E                                                                     A 
And you can dance and drink and screw because there's nothing else to do
