Distraction Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]South London, I'm a South London girl
I wonder what I should get a tattoo of
I [Em]know that my mama [Am]would kill me
So maybe I won't then,
maybe I won't then
[Em]Where is [F]my distraction?
Written in my phone, [Am]I see your name
It must've been a few [G]long [Em]weeks
[Am]since [F]I heard [Am]from you
I've been doing fine, [Em]thanks
Maybe [Am]I won't then,
maybe I won't then
Thing is [F]I'm weak when I've

[Verse 2]
[F]
been rolling
I might just give up and let [G]your call in
[Em]I would [Am]be the girl to lose this one
I would be the [C]girl to lose [Am]this one
Seeing [F]as you know I'm
the baddest loser
And if I wanna win,
I've got to [G]lose her
[Em]I won't [Am]be the girl to lose this one
So I begin to find [C]a distraction,
[Am]a dist[Em]raction[F]

[Verse 3]
[F]Oh [G]I j[F]ust[G] ne[Em]ed t[Am]o find something,
[C]a way to [Am]stop me wonder[Em] ing[F]
Oh [G]I just [Em]need[Am] to find something,
[C]a way to stop me won[Em]dering abo[C]ut [F]you[Am]

[Verse 4]
East [Am]London, you're a East London boy
You had me strung up like a puppet toy
Oh shit, wait, I'ma stop talking
I'ma stop thinking 'bout you,
where is my [Em]dis trac[F]tion?
Shopping, I'ma buy a paint[Am]brush
Grab a couple colours that carry half the
[G]weight of everything [F]I'm feeling
So I can [Am]try to pret[C]end
I'm really artistic [Am]and I don't
really miss this
Thing [F]is I'm weak when I've been

[Verse 5]
[F]
rolling
I just might give up and let your call [G]in
[Em]I wo[Am]uld be the girl to lose this one
I would be the girl to lose this one
[G]Seeing [F]as you know I'm
the baddest loser
And if I wanna win, [G]I've got to lose her
I won't [Am]be the girl to lose this one
So I begin to find
[G]the distraction
The distraction, the distraction,
[Am]the distract[Em]ion[F]

[Verse 6]
[F]I just [G]nee[F]d t[G]o f[F]ind[G] so[Em]meth[Am]ing,
[C]a way to stop me [Am]wonder [Em]ing[F]
[G]I just [Am]need to find something,
[C]a way to stop me [Am]wonderi[Em]ng about[F] y[G]ou[C][Am]

[Interlude 1]

[C][Am]
[F]North London,

[Verse 7]
I'm in North London now
Decided, you don't [G]get a home and now
[Am]If you like,
you can always [F]call my phone
Hear the dialling tone and then
[Am]the answer phone
I'll [F]be fine if I ignore [Am]the sound,
when you [Em]call to [G]see [Dm]if I'm [G]around
The moment [Am]that you think that you
have won
I will have found the [C]perfect distraction
