Verse 1:
Ab         Cm
  It's 3:45 (am!)
                   Eb
And I just bit my tongue
                  G
Update me on your life
                          Ab
And now you've found the one
                      Cm
But I don't like his eyes
                     Eb
And I distrust their name
                      G                   Ab
And I hate their haircut, they look like a xxxxx (A xxxxx)
   Cm
But it's all the same
           Eb
Will it be daft of me to cry?
               G
Your tongue is razor sharp
                     Ab
I miss when it would fight mine
                Cm
Left your heart on standby
                 Eb
By the way he holds you
               G
Bet he serenades you
                      Eb Ab
I can't really blame you

Chorus:
G                           Eb Ab
  I can still smell her perfume
G
  And did it rub off on you?
G                           Eb Ab
  I can still smell her perfume
G
  And did it rub off on you?
Eb              Ab                       G
  You say your ex-boyfriend's a policeman
G
  Well, I say you need better standards
Eb              Ab                       G
  You say your ex-boyfriend's a policeman
G
  I say you need better standards!

Verse 2:
Ab                          Cm
 It seems like all our friends, abruptly fell in love
Eb                   G
And she was in the dust, darling, life was streaming past
Ab                 Cm
So she learnt to lie, she learnt how to pretend
Eb                  G
A drama in the futile, a means to an end
Ab                  Cm
Why can't you be a xxxx?, Why must you be so nice?
Eb                   G
It's hard for me to move on, when I don't really hate you
Ab                      Cm
(I don't really hate you)
nc
(I don't really hate you)
Eb                      G
(I don't really hate you)

Chorus:
G                           Eb Ab
  I can still smell her perfume
G
  And did it rub off on you?
G                           Eb Ab
  I can still smell her perfume
G
  And did it rub off on you?

Solo (x5): Eb Ab G

Outro:
Ab         Cm
  It's 3:45
                Eb
The taxi not arrived
                       G
And I dont think hes coming
