Cm
I have a secret place
Ab
Inside my mind
Bb                       G                Gm
Where I keep hidden inspiration you won't find
Cm
And when my petty anger
Ab
Goes to my head
Bb
You'll find I'm better off dead
G   Fm          Ab       G
Oh, and I don't hold the key
   Cm        Bb       Eb    Bb
To find out what is killing me
Cm  Fm Ab    G        Cm      Bb     Ab    G     Ab G
It's been so long but somehow I just still care
 
[Chorus]

Sometimes I think you hate me

Hang up the phone

But take a closer look, this hate I feel is my own
Cm                           Ab
So many times I've loved you more than myself

It's time to take that love and put it on the shelf
        Fm     Ab       G
Oh, and when I hold you tight

Fm     Ab      G
Love turned to hate
    Cm       Bb    Ab       G      Ab               G
Somehow it's just, how it's just, how it's just too late

[Bridge]
Cm
Rock the Reggae music 'cause it sounds so fine, right!
Ab
When I hold you tight, in my arms you are mine
                   Bb
But in the morning when I wake up and I still feel the same
         G
I know something going on, and I know who's to blame.
Cm
Every time I tell you I'm the real Romeo
   Ab
It fills my soul and heart with anger, pain, and sorrow
        Bb
'Cause something's going on, and I think you should know
   Cm
So listen to my rhyme, 'cause this is how it goes:
Cm
In a tight mini short, in a short mini skirt
It feels so wrong and it feels so right
    Ab
The more I think about it, you're a pain in the ass
I told you many times, this time it's gonna last
Bb
Want the kind of woman who can make me feel right
      G
Not sloppy drunk sex on a Saturday night, 'cause
 
[Chorus]

Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up
Db                  Cm
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
Db                         Cm
Pick it up, Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
Db
hey, hey, Alright!
