[Verse 1]
Hate waking up in an empty bed
I'm only capable of looking
                       Bb
through my pictures of you
                       F
Got nothing better to do
Call all you want,
I'll never let it ring
I'm in the best restaurant,
                           Bb
haven't had a bite of the food
                  F
I only wanna eat you
         C
I don't really like to brag
                    F
about it but it's true

[Chorus]
                         F
Nobody does it like you do
(You do, you do, you do)
                           F
Nothing beats being under you
(You do, you do, you do)
                           Bb
Marks on my back, I wonder who
(You do, you do, you do)
                             F
Would understand what I go through?
(You do, you do, you do)
                            C#
I got your hands around my neck,
                   C
mama, keep it in check
What do you want done to you?

[Verse 2]
F
I don't believe in forcing
conversation, honest
I'd rather be in your heavy rotation
         Bb
Than a guest list, paper wrist
                              F
Story that you tell to your friends
                         C
I don't remember how it started
but I'm pretty sure
                         F
I know how tonight will end

[Chorus]
                         F
Nobody does it like you do
(You do, you do, you do)
                           F
Nothing beats being under you
(You do, you do, you do)
                           Bb
Marks on my back, I wonder who
(You do, you do, you do)
                             F
Would understand what I go through?
(You do, you do, you do)
                            C#
I got your hands around my neck,
                   C
mama, keep it in check
                          F
What do you want done to you?

[Bridge]
I'll take that tension
           Bb
off your shoulder
                           F
Teach me a lesson, take me over
              C
No, I don't really like to brag
                   F
about it but it's true

[Chorus]
                         F
Nobody does it like you do
(You do, you do, you do)
         F
Like you do
(You do, you do, you do)
                            Bb
Marks on my back, I wonder who
(You do, you do, you do)
                             F
Would understand what I go through?
(You do, you do, you do)
                          C#
Got your hands around my neck,
                   C
mama, keep it in check
                           F
What do you want done to you?

How to play Around My Neck: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Around My Neck by FINNEAS on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

Around My Neck by FINNEAS is built around F major (one flat: B♭), with 4 chords in all: Bb, F, C and C#.

The backbone of the song is C – F – Bb – F (V – I – IV – I in F major). In solfa, that is soh – doh – fah – doh. Practise these 4 changes until they feel natural and you can play most of it.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 1st fret and play the shapes A, E, B, C (75% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 25% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
