Here's a song from the Smithereens, ESPECIALLY FOR YOU album. This is 
indeed my first time posting so if y'all got any comments, please tell me 
before i get into a bad habit! Like I said, I'm really clueless so if 
this winds up in pub/guitar/s/smithereens I would be most gracious!

                             Cigarette
(intro)
G//|D//|E//|F#//|
(verse1)
a              E           G                D
smoked my last cigarette, sat in bed for a while,
F               C             D            E
thought of your face and that brought me a smile,
a       E           G          D
wanted another one, fell back asleep instead,
F              C           D            E
woke and found you sitting there on the bed

(chorus)
G          D          A          E
cigarette, cigarette, burning up time.
G          D          A          E
cigarette, cigarette, watch the  smoke climb.
G          D          A          E
cigarette, cigarette, wasting    away...
G              D          A           E
just like this cigarette, our time is running down,
G        D                E            F#
only one hour 'til you're leavin' this town.

(bridge)
G    D    A    E
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
G    D    A    E
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
G              D          A           E
just like this cigarette, our time is running down,
G        D                 E       F#
only one hour 'till you're leavin' this town.

(verse2)
walked to the corner store, bought us another pack,
held my arm 'round you as we headed back.
I tried to change your mind, didn't want you to go,
I love you more, I think, than you will ever know.

(repeat chorus)

(coda)
smoked one last cigarette, sat in bed for a while,
thought of your face and that brought me a smile...
