[Verse 1: ZAYN]
                 G
Fuckin' on the countertop,
               Am
window to the floor
                Em
She been on my mind,
                         D
I swear she the type to roll
                    G  Am
She with me when I flow
                    Em  D
She with me when I don’t
                 G
Fuckin' on the countertops,
         Am
elevated her
                 Em
She can ride me blind,
                     D
I give anything she want
                 G  Am
I never let her know
                     Em  D
So she come back for more

[Verse 3: Devlin]
Em
 Your cigarettes on the windowsill
     Em                        Am
You left here from the night before
   Em
I take one, never light it up
 Em                Am
Night comes and I want you more
Em
 So I can play dumb
        Em                  Am
If the rain comes, it will more
than pour
Em
 But I don't want no fake love
        Em                 Am
Just a real freak when I'm on
the board
Em                  Em
 And I'm waitin', impatient,
                          Am
 all I can do is man my station
Em                 Em
 When the body is that hot,
                 Am
 it's a curse, damnation
Em                    Em
 And there ain't no salvation,
                        Am
 this girl could walk through Hell
Em                   Em         N.C.
 And I'm sure she'd tempt Satan if
 she ain't the devil herself

[Chorus: ZAYN & Devlin]
 G              Am
Cigarettes and fuckin' on the windowsill
Em                 D
 In my bed, yeah, tell me when you're gettin' here
G                    Am
 Only thing I wanna know
Em                    D
 Is how far away you are (How far away you are)
 G              Am
Cigarettes and fuckin' on the windowsill
Em                        D
 Break the glass, go and show me
 how you really feel (Show me)
 G                     Am
Come and give me some love
Em                           D
 That's the way you show me love
 (How far away you are)
