[Db] [C] [Em]
[A] [B] [Db] You [B] guys don't seem that scary though, so [N] we're cool, right?
We're cool!
[Em] So, talking of which, you may or may not have noticed that we're not from, like, around here.
We're from this little tiny country [N] called England.
[B]
More specifically, we're from this little tiny place called London, [Gbm] which resides in England.
And more specifically, [A] we're from this place called Camden Town.
[Ab]
[Em] Few of us are from Camden Town.
[E] You know if you've been to [C] Camden Town.
[E] So, we've got a [B] story with this next song.
It goes [N] a little something like this.
Ready?
[D] So, we did this show in Camden Town from where we [Bb] came from.
[D] And this guy, he came up to us after the show and he said that [C] he loved it.
He thought it was, like, one of the best [A] gigs he'd ever seen.
[Dm] But [D] then afterwards, he said that no [Bb] matter how good our band [Am] was, we'd never ever be as good as his band.
Because [C] girls can't play [Bb] guitars as well as boys.
[D]
He said it was biologically [Fm] impossible because girls have got smaller hands.
[Gbm] I've actually got quite big [E] hands, so
[D]
So, we'd like to [Dm] dedicate this song to that guy in Camden [D] Town.
Who's still in Camden Town right now.
[Gm] Who will still be in [C] Camden Town when Sam Smith dies.
[F] And we get to come and hang out with you [D] lot at South [Bb] by South Freakin' West.
So, we're incredibly happy [Dm] about that.
This song is called Girls Come All the Time.
[C] [F] [E]
