Verse
D                          Bm
I'll trust as far as I can spit.
                       G
You can read deep into it.
                         Bm              A       D
New York nightlife isn't shit without a storyboard.
                             Bm                     G
I don't think much impresses me like a drunk celebrity.
                             Bm             A
You just fall down and fall asleep like the rest (of us).

Chorus
G            Bm D G                           Bm D
On your way out, don't bother picking up your tab.
G            Bm D G                                     Bm
It's a stake out. There's hanging on with bated breath, you're just milking 
A
this to death.

Verse 2 as in verse 1:

So sad I have to disappoint, her name is not a selling point.
The drinks are better in this joint where everyone's a friend.
Not that the nightlife isn't great and if I seem to be irate,
I don't have tolerance for fakes:what's to say.

Chorus
G            Bm D G                           Bm D
On your way out, don't bother picking up your tab.

It's a stake out. There's hanging on with bated breath, you're just milking 
A
this to death.

Verse 3 as in verse 1:
Somewhere the novelty wore thin.
Every city I was in there was an actor soaked in gin with an entourage.
This is my home away from home, get a barstool of your own.
I'll watch you sinking like a stone:what a sight.

Chorus
G            Bm D G                           Bm D
On your way out, don't bother picking up your tab.
G            Bm D G                                     Bm
It's a stake out. There's hanging on with bated breath, you're just milking 
A
this for:

Coda:
D   G         Bm           A
Access, what little we possess.
D        G                       Bm             A
Any other pays the cover but it wouldn't be the same.
D    G    Bm           A
Excess, destined to impress.
         D            G             Bm            A
You can follow every model but you always try to hover near fame.
