Opens with an Eb pentatonic blues riff (1,1-2,2-4,4-5,4; 1,1-2,2-6-5). Eb Oh, that's a filthy habit, Eb You'd better not do that. Eb Oh, such a filthy habit: Bb Ab You'll be gone in seconds flat Eb Oh, that's a filthy habit, Eb You'd better not do that. Eb Oh, such a filthy habit: Bb Ab You'll be gone in seconds flat. Dbmaj7 Gb7sus4 Secret policemen everywhere Abmaj7 Gb7sus4 No one around to talk and share Fmaj7 Ebmaj7 Telling the bosses what I do Dbmaj7 Bmaj7 Since you're not around to share the view. Eb Oh, that's a filthy habit, Eb You'd better not do that. Eb Oh, such a filthy habit: Bb Ab You'll be gone in seconds flat. Eb Oh, that's a filthy habit, Eb You'd better not do that. Eb Oh, such a filthy habit: Bb Ab You'll be gone in seconds flat. Dbmaj7 Gb7sus4 Let's do a mission, score some green. Abmaj7 Gb7sus4 I'll be around to set the scene. Fmaj7 Ebmaj7 Out of their clutches, me and you, Dbmaj7 Bmaj7 Where no-one can tell us what to do. Eb7(#9) E7(#9) Everyone's got some weird obsession: Eb7(#9) E7(#9) Don't moralise, it's just possession. Solo Eb Oh, that's a filthy habit, Eb You'd better not do that. Eb Oh, such a filthy habit: Bb Ab You'll be gone in seconds flat Eb Oh, that's a filthy habit, Eb You'd better not do that. Eb Oh, such a filthy habit: Bb Ab You'll be gone in seconds flat.
