Now, the king told the boogie men,

G7                  Dm7
--More--(4%)
you have to let that raga drop.

A7                        Em7
The oil down the desert way

G7                    Dm7
has been shaking to the top.

A7                        Em7
The sheik he drove his cadillac

G7                   Dm7
he went a cruisin down the ville.

A7                        Em7
The Muezzin was a standing

Fmaj7
On the radiator grille.

chorus-

Dm7                A7  G7
Shareef don't like it.

Em7       Fmaj7  Em7           A7
Rock the Casbah. Rock the Casbah.

Dm7                 A7  G7
Shareef don't like it.

Em7      Fmaj7   Em7         A7
Rock the Casbah. Rock the Casbah.

By order of the prophet
We ban that boogie sound.
Degenerate the faithful
With that crazy Casbah sound.
But the Bedouin, they brought out the electric camel drum.
The local guitar picker got his guitar picking thumb.
As soon as the Shareef had cleared the square,
They began to wail.

Chorus

Now over at the temple
Oh, they really pack em in.
The in crowd say it's cool
To dig this chanting thing.
But as the wind changed direction
and the temple band took five
The crowd got a whiff
Of that crazy casbah jive.

Chorus

The king called up his jet fighters,
He said, you better earn your pay.
Drop your bombs down between the minarets
Down the casbah way.
As sson as the Shareef was chauffered out of there,
The jet pilote tuned to the cockpit radio blare.
As soon as the Shareef was outta their hair
The jet pilots wailed.

Chorus to extro.

Am C F C (Basically plays the entire song except for the chorus.)

Am C F C
Sometimes we fall down and can't get back up
Am C F C
We're hiding behind skin that's too tough
Am C F C
How come we don't say I love you enough
Am C F C
Till it's too late, it's not too late

Am C F C
Our hearts are hungry for a food that won't come
Am C F C
We could make a feast from these crumbs
Am C F C
And we're all staring down the barrel of a gun
Am C F C
So if your life flashed before you, what would you wish you would've done

F G C/E F (Entire Chorus)
Yeah‚Ä¶ gotta start
Looking at the hand of the time we've been given here
This is all we got and we gotta start thinkin' it
Every second counts on a clock that's tickin

Gotta live like we're dying

We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
To turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‚Äòem that we love ‚Äòem while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying

(Continued after the jump)
Well if you plane fell out of the skies
Who would you call with your last goodbyes
Should be so careful who we live out of our lives
So when we long for absolution, there'll be no one on the line

Yeah‚Ä¶ we gotta start lookin' at the hand of the time we've been given here
This all we got and we gotta start thinkin it
Every second count on a clock that's tickin
Gotta live like we're dying

We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‚Äòem that we love ‚Äòem while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying

Like we're dying oh‚Ä¶
Like we're dying
Like we're dying oh‚Ä¶
Like we're dying

We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‚Äòem that we love ‚Äòem while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying

You never know a good thing until it's gone
you never see a crash until its head on
All these people right when we're dead wrong,
You never know a good thing till it's gone

Yeah‚Ä¶ we gotta start lookin' at the hand of the time we've been given here
this all we got and we gotta start thinkin it
Every second count on a clock that's tickin
Gotta live like we're dying

We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‚Äòem that we love ‚Äòem while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying

Like we're dying oh‚Ä¶
Like we're dying
Like we're dying oh‚Ä¶
Like we're dying

We only got 86 400 seconds in a day
to turn it all around or throw it all away
We gotta tell ‚Äòem that we love ‚Äòem while we got the chance to say,
Gotta live like we're dying

[INTRO][Em7] [D] [Cmaj7] [Asus2 or A7] 2x

**[VERSE]**      
    [Em7] [D] [Cmaj7]        [Asus2 or A7] Em7]  [D] [Cmaj7] [Asus2 or A7] 
Sometimes, I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear
[Em7] [D] [Cmaj7]        [Asus2 or A7]       
And I can't help but ask myself how much 
     [Em7]        [D]             [Cmaj7] [Asus2 or A7] 
I'll let the fear take the wheel and steer.

**[BRIDGE/PRE-CHORUS]**
[C]            [A]                            [C]     [A7]
It's driven me before, and it seems to have a vague, haunting mass appeal.
[C]        [A]                        [C]              [A7]
But lately I'm beginning to find that I should be the one behind the wheel.

**[CHORUS]**
[Em7] [D]   [Cmaj7]     [Asus2 or A7]  [Em7]         
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there 
[D]   [Cmaj7]       [Asus2 or A7]        
with open arms and open eyes, Yeah
[Em7] [D]   [Cmaj7]      [Asus2 or A7]      [Em7][D][Cmaj7][Asus2 or A7]               
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there..I'll be there.

**[Verse]**
[Em7] [D] [Cmaj7]        [Asus2 or A7]    [Em7] [D] [Cmaj7] [Asus2 or A7]
So, if I decide to waiver my chance to be one of the hive
[Em7]  [D] [Cmaj7]      [Asus2 or A7]       [Em7] [D] [Cmaj7] [Asus2 or A7]
Will I choose water over wine and hold my own and drive? Ahaa-aa-aa-aa.

**[BRIDGE/PRE-CHORUS]**
[C]            [A]                            [C]         [A7]
It's driven me before and it seems to be the way that everyone else gets around.
[C]          [A]                          [C]          [A7]
But lately I'm beginning to find that when I drive myself my light is found.

**[CHORUS]**
[Em7] [D]   [Cmaj7]     [Asus2 or A7][Em7]         
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there 
[D]   [Cmaj7]       [Asus2 or A7]        
with open arms and open eyes, Yeah
[Em7] [D] [Cmaj7]    [Asus2 or A7] [Em7] [D] [Cmaj7] [Asus2 or A7]               
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there..I'll be there.

**[BRIDGE/PRE-CHORUS]**
C]            [A]           [C]     [A7]
Would you choose water over wine....hold the wheel and drive?

**[CHORUS]**
[Em7] [D]   [Cmaj7]    [Asus2 or A7][Em7]         
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

              Hey!

And that's it. Use the same chords and strumming for each chorus and verse, and as for
solo.... well, you can either play the solo like normal(I'll put the tab for the solo
or you can skip it. I find if you're playing alone, the chorus sounds awkward like 
because it goes from loud chorus to a somewhat empty/quiet solo feeling, so personally I
it. However, if you have a band or something, it may sound better with the solo.

Also, for the part at the end where he goes a denial over and over, just do the chorus.

I heard from a friend today 
Am
And she said you were in town 
      C      G/F  F
Suddenly the memories came back to me in my 
    G 
Mind

[CHORUS] 
        C                Em
How can I be strong I've asked myself 
Am
Time and time I've said 
          F             G/F                 C
That I'll never fall in love with you again

Em
A wounded heart you gave 
    Am
My soul you took away 
     F
Good intentions you had many 
  G/F          C 
I know you did 
              Em
I come from a place that hurts 
    Am
And God knows how I've cried 
      F
And I never want to return 
      G/F   C
never fall again

C      Em      Am
Making love to you 
Am
Oh it felt so good and 
F     G/F
Oh so right

C, Em, Am, F, G/F, C
[CHORUS]

C
So here we are alone again 
Am
Didn't think it'd come to this 
       F
And to know it all began 
            G/F        C
With just a little kiss 
  
I've come too close to happiness 
   Am
To have it swept away 
            F
Don't think I can take the pain 
         G/F   C
No never fall again
C     Em          Am 
Kinda late in the game

and my heart is in 
     G/F
Your hands

C 
Don't you stand there and then 
E
Tell me you love 
Am                 F
Me then leave again 
F                  Em G          
'Cause I'm falling in love with 
    C
You again

C
Hold me 
Em
Hold me 
G/F
Don't ever let me go 
Am     G/F
Say it just one time 
F
Say you love me 
Em          G
God knows I do

Love you

In Too Deep
Genesis

(Video)

Intro- Am7 Bm7 Cmaj7 D

(Em7)All that time I was searching(Bm7) with nowhere to run (Am7)to It (D)started 
me thinking(Em7)wondering what I could make of my life(C)(Am7)And who'd be 
(D)waiting.(Em7)Asking all kinds of (C)questions to myself(Am7)
but never (D)finding the answers.(Em7)Crying at the top of my voice (C)
and (Am)no one (D)listening.

(Am7)All this (Bm7)time I still re(Cmaj7)member everything you (D)said
(Am7)There's so (Bm7)much you promised
(C)how could I ever for(D)get?

Listen(G) you know I love you but I (C)just can't (Bm7)take this
(G)You know I love you but I'm (C)playing for- (Bm7)keeps
(G)Although I need you I'm (C)not gonna (Bm7)make this
(G)You know I want you but I'm (Cadd9)in too (Bm7)deep.

(Am7)So listen
(Bm7/A)listen to(Am7) me
oh
you (Bm7/A)must believe(Am7) me-
I can feel your eyes go through(Am7) me but I don't know (D/C)why.

Verse Chords
I know you're going but I can't believe
It's the way that you're leaving
It's like we never knew each other at all
it may be my fault.
I gave you too many reasons being alone when I didn't want to.
I thought you'd always be there
I almost believed you.

All this time I still remember everything you said
There's so much you promised
how could I ever forget?

Listen- you know I love you but I just can't take this
. . .
(Am7)So listen
(Bm7)listen to(Am7) me- I can feel your (D/C)eyes go through me.

/ E / Aadd9 / - / Dadd9 / G E / Aadd9 / - / Dadd9 / G E / D / G / G/B /

(Am7)It seems I've spent too long(Bm7) only (Cmaj7)thinking about my(D)self

(Am7)And now I want to (Bm7)spend my life just (Cmaj7)caring 'bout somebody else (D).

The Way I Am
Eminem

(Video)

Abm

Whatever...
Dre, just let it run
Aiyyo turn the beat up a little bit
Aiyyo... this song is for anyone... fuck it
Just shut up and listen, aiyyo...

I sit back with this pack of Zig Zags and this bag
Of this weed it gives me the shit needed to be
The most meanest MC on this - on this Earth
And since birth I've been cursed with this curse to just curse
And just blurt this berserk and bizarre shit that works
And it sells and it helps in itself to relieve
All this tension dispensing these sentences
Getting this stress that's been eating me recently off of this chest
And I rest again peacefully (peacefully)...
But at least have the decency in you
To leave me alone, when you freaks see me out
In the streets when I'm eating or feeding my daughter
Do not come and speak to me (speak to me)...
I don't know you and no,
I don't owe you a motherfucking thing
I'm not Mr. N'Sync, I'm not what your friends think
I'm not Mr. Friendly, I can be a prick
If you tick me my tank is on empty (is on empty)...
No patience is in me and if you offend me
I'm lifting you 10 feet (lifting you 10 feet)... in the air
I don't care who was there and who saw me destroy you
Go call you a lawyer, file you a lawsuit
I'll smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe
I'm tired of all you (of all you)...
I don't mean to be mean but that's all I can be is just me

[Chorus-]
And I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
Radio won't even play my jam
'Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
I don't know it's just the way I am

Sometimes I just feel like my father,
I hate to be bothered
With all of this nonsense it's constant
And, Oh, it's his lyrical content -
- the song 'Guilty Conscience' has gotten such rotten responses
And all of this controversy circles me
And it seems like the media immediately
Points a finger at me (finger at me)...
So I point one back at 'em, but not the index or pinkie
Or the ring or the thumb, it's the one you put up
When you don't give a fuck, when you won't just put up
With the bullshit they pull, 'cause they full of shit too
When a dude's getting bullied and shoots up his school
And they blame it on Marilyn (on Marilyn)... and the heroin
Where were the parents at? And look where it's at
Middle America, now it's a tragedy
Now it's so sad to see, an upper class city
Having this happening (this happening)...
Then attack Eminem 'cause I rap this way (rap this way)...
But I'm glad 'cause they feed me the fuel that I need for the fire
To burn and it's burning and I have returned

I'm so sick and tired of being admired
That I wish that I would just die or get fired
And dropped from my label, let's stop with the fables
I'm not gonna be able to top on My Name is... 
And pigeon-holed into some pop-py sensation
That got me rotation at rock'n'roll stations
And I just do not got the patience (got the patience)...
To deal with these cocky Caucasians who think
I'm some wigger who just tries to be black 'cause I talk
With an accent, and grab on my balls, so they always keep asking
The same fucking questions (fucking questions)...
What school did I go to, what hood I grew up in
The why, the who what when, the where, and the how
'Til I'm grabbing my hair and I'm tearing it out
'Cause they driving me crazy (driving me crazy)... I can't take it
I'm racing, I'm pacing, I stand and I sit
And I'm thankful for every fan that I get
But I can't take a shit, in the bathroom
Without someone standing by it
No I won't sign your autograph
You can call me an asshole I'm glad

[Chorus-]
'Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
Radio won't even play my jam
'Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
I don't know it's just the way I am

Am                     Am
I got chills they're multiplyin'
        F         C
And I'm losin' control
           E               Am
'Cause the power you're supplying
                   Am
It's electrifying

C             Em        Am
You better shape up 'cause I need a man

And my heart is set on you
                 C               Em         Am
You better shape up, you better understand
                          F
To my heart I must be true

Nothing left, nothing left for me to do
