This is the chord progression of Habit by Will Joseph Cook on Piano, Guitar, Ukulele and Keyboard.

[Verse 1]
F#m          E       C#m
Baby, you’re a habit
B             E             F#m
A stacked cigarette packet
E                   C#m
And your kisses are matches
B                   E
Not nicotine patches

F#m                         E
You’re in my bloodstream
C#m             B             E             F#m
But no syringe can get you in or out
E                         C#m
‘Cause baby you’re more than that
B                               E
You’re an overdose, a heart attack

[Pre-Chorus]
A             G#m             B
I feel nothing when I’m alone
C#m                   B
Baby, you bring it on
A       G#m       B
I miss the way

[Chorus]
C#m                               A
I’d smell my clothes and think of you
B             C#m             A                   B
Close my eyes and hope that you’ll materialise
C#m
I think I’ve got problems
A                                     B
I think I’ve got problems, babe

I think I’ve got a problem with you

[Verse 2]
F#m       E             C#m
My vision is blurred
B             E             F#m
My diction is slurred
E                               C#m
But you can’t tell it from my step
B                   E                   F#m
No, you can’t smell it on my breath
E             C#m
No breathalyzer
B       E       F#m
is required
E                   C#m                   B             E
‘Cause I can barely hold my head straight up

[Pre-Chorus]
A             G#m             B
I feel nothing when I’m alone
C#m                   B
Baby, you bring it on
A             G#m       B
I miss the way

[Chorus]
C#m                   A
I’d smell my clothes and think of you
B             C#m                         A                         B
Close my eyes and hope that you’ll materialise
C#m
I think I’ve got problems
A                                                       B
I think I’ve got problems, babe
C#m
I think I’ve got a problem with you
C#m                   B         A        G#m       B
ooooooh Now I’m down on my knees
C#m          B         A         G#m         B
ooooooh And I’m craving release
C#m         B         A         G#m         B
ooooooh And I’m craving release

[Outro]
C#m                                         A
I’d smell my clothes and think of you
B                 C#m                         A                         B
Close my eyes and hope that you’ll materialise
C#m
I think I’ve got problems
A                                         B
I think I’ve got problems, babe

I think I’ve got a problem with you
