Jamila Woods – Giovanni chords

[Intro]

C#m B A(X2)

[Verse 1]

C#m                 B  You might want to hold my comb
         AWhen you find out what I'm made of
C#m                 B                  A  You might want to follow me and copy all of my mistakes
C#m      B            A  I'm so nice, so nice
                         C#mYou can not smile when I smile
      B          AAnd I cry, I cry
                            C#mIt's just the rain so I can grow

[Chorus]

C#m                     BLittle bitty, you wanna call me
  AA hundred motherfuckers cannot tell me
C#m                               BHow I'm supposed to look when I'm angry
AHow I'm supposed to shrink when you're around me
   C#m                   BPermission denied to rearrange me
