(continue playing Am G Dm F)
Tell me find your spot with the warning that I might slip
And when you climb on top that's the ultimate road trip
Ride on my like your Pac got me thinkin' it's 96'
I can rap on some nineties shit, wrap your leggings around my hip
I'm so hip to it tourists want to come speculate
But if I stay monogamous promise this kiss will always taste like candy
And yea, it's obvious momma now probably can't stand me
I'm sure they're tired of this look that you have when you're antsy
We gon' fuck around (Mm) we gon' fuck around
And triple through triplets of babies right now
And that might break the record and no, that don't mean you're fertile
That means we're fucking reckless, plus we don't use protection
I find myself reading old text messages when I'm bored
We find ourselves sexting 'til that connection is restored
I know that sounds immature, but if we never grow up
Then I wish you good luck on the seas that's inside this wall
Am
Come to me
Come, come to me
G
Look at what you've done to me
You put a gun to me
Dm
Then you brought the sun to me
Shine like blood diamonds
F
Learning to have patience
Only cause you are timeless
Am
The universe energy doesn't lie
G
And this chemistry is infinity at a million
Times
Dm
I wrote a million rhymes to scrabble your
Star power
F
Now the 24 bars, you get 24 hours
Am
All that I know is right now
G
Nothing's for sure but, right now
Dm F
Gotta get yours like, right now, right now

All that I know is right now

Nothing's for sure but, right now

Dm

F
We steady losin' all control
What a life

The truth ain't pretty
But comin' from that pretty mouth
G
The truth is fitting
'Cause you ain't never talkin' loud
Dm
And you know plenty
Yea you know what I'm talkin' bout

[Verse] G
When the sun goes down on my side of town
That lonesome feelin' comes to my door
C G
An' the whole world turns... blue
G
There's a rundown bar across the railroad tracks
I got a table for two, way in the back
C G
Where I sit alone... and I think of losin' you
D G
I spend most every night beneath the light of a neon moon
[Chorus] C D
Now, if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams dance in and out of the beams
G
Of a neon moon.
[Verse] G
I think of two young lovers a-runnin' wild and free
I close my eyes and sometimes see
C G
You in the shadows of this smoke-filled room
G
No tellin' how many tears I've sat here and cried
Or how many lies that I've lied
C G
Tellin' my poor heart she'll come back someday
D G
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon
[Chorus]
[Verse] G
The jukebox plays on drink by drink
And the words to ev'ry sad song seem to say what I think
C G
And this hurt inside of me, it ain't never gonna end
D G
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon

[Verse 1] Em C D G
Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leavin' my life in your hands
People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Risking it all in a glance
And how you got me blind is still a mystery
I can't get you out of my head
Don't care what is written in your history
As long as you're here with me
[Chorus 1] C G Em D
I don't care who you are
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me
Who you are
Where you're from
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me
[Verse 2]
Every little thing that you have said and done
Feels like it's deep within me
Doesn't really matter if you're on the run
It seems like we're meant to be
[Chorus]

I've tried to hide it so that no one knows

But I guess it shows

Dream if u can a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat
The heat between me and you
CHORUS [Am Em Em Am]
How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that's so cold?
Maybe I'm just 2 demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father 2 bold

She's never satisfied
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like when doves cry

[Verse 1] Am E7 E7 Am
They say around the way you've asked for me
There's even talk about you wanting me
I must admit that's what I wanna hear
But that's just talk until you take me there
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh If it's true, don't leave me all alone out here
Wondering if you're ever gonna take me there
Tell me what you're feeling because I need to know
Girl, you gotta let me know which way to go
[Chorus]
Because I need to know, I need to know
Tell me, baby girl, cause I need to know
I need to know, I need to know
Tell me, baby girl, cause I need to know

My every thought is of this being true
It's getting harder not to think of you
Girl, I'm exactly where I wanna be
The only thing's I need you here with me
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh If it's true, don't leave me all alone out here
Wondering if you're ever gonna take me there
Tell me what you're feeling because I need to know
Girl, you gotta let me know which way to go

Because I need to know, I need to know
Tell me, baby girl, cause I need to know
I need to know, I need to know
Tell me, baby girl, cause I need to know

I love you
I long to see the sunshine in your hair.
And tell you time and time again
How much I care.
I sometimes feel my heart will overflow.
Hello, I've just got to let you know.
'Cause I wonder where you are.
And I wonder what you do.
Are you somewhere feeling lonely?
Or is there someone loving you?
Tell me, how to win your heart,
For I haven't got a clue.
But let me start by saying
I love you.

LYRICS
**********
Call up, ring once, hang up the phone
To let me know you made it home
Don't want nothing to be wrong with part-time lover
If she's with me I'll blink the lights
To let you know tonight's the night
For me and you my part-time lover
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
If I'm with friends and we should meet
Just pass me by, don't even speak
Know the word's discreet when part-time lovers
But if there's some emergency
Have a male friend to ask for me
So then she won't peek its really you my part-time lover
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
I've got something that I must tell
Last night someone rang our doorbell
And it was not you my part-time lover
And then a man called our exchange
But didn't want to leave his name
I guess that two can play the game
Of part-time lovers
You and me, part-time lovers
But, she and he, part-time lovers

When a (E) mountain of a man with a 'Born To Kill' tattoo
Tr(C)ied to cut in, I knocked out his front tooth

Her (C) daddy, in a lawn chair, sittin' on the driveway

When I was in the third grade I thought I was gay

'Cause I could draw, an' my uncle was, and I kept my room straight
Eb Cm
I told my mom tears rushing down my face
Ab Eb
She's like Ben you've loved girls since before pre-k, trippin'
Eb Cm
Yea I guess she had a point didn't she?
Ab Eb
Bunch of stereotypes all in my head.
Eb Cm
I remember doing the math like, yea I'm good at little league
Ab Eb
A preconceived idea of what it all meant
(repeat progression)
For those that liked the same sex
Had the characteristics
The right wing conservatives think it's a decision
And you can be cured with some treatment and religion
Man made rewiring of a predisposition
Playing god, aw nah here we go
America the brave still fears what we don't know
And god loves all his children, is somehow forgotten
But we paraphrase a book written thirty-five-hundred years ago
I don't know

A culture founded from oppression, yet we don't have acceptance for 'em
Ab Eb
Call each other faggots behind the keys of a message board

A word rooted in hate, yet our genre still ignores it
Ab Eb
A gay is synonymous with the lesser
Eb Cm
It's the same hate that's caused wars from religion
Ab Eb
Gender to skin color, the complexion of your pigment
(repeat progression)
The same fight that led people to walk outs and sit ins
It's human rights for everybody, there is no difference!
Live on and be yourself
When I was at church they taught me something else
If you preach hate at the service those words aren't anointed
That holy water that you soak in has been poisoned
Eb Eb/C
When everyone else is more comfortable remaining voiceless
Cm/Ab Cm7/Bb
Rather than fighting for humans that have had their rights stolen

Progress, march on

With the veil over our eyes

We turn the back on the cause

Till the day that my uncles can be united by law
When kids are walking 'round the hallway plagued by pain in their heart
A world so hateful some would rather die than be who they are
And a certificate on paper isn't gonna solve it all
But it's a damn good place to start
No law is gonna change us
We have to change us
Whatever god we believe in
We come from the same one

[Verse 1]
Am C D F
There is a house in New Orleans,
Am C E7
They call the "Rising Sun",
Am C D F
It's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
Am E Am C D F
And God, I know, I'm one.
Am C D F
My mother was a tailor,
Am C E7
She sewed my new blue jeans,
Am C D F
My father was a gambling man,
Am E Am C D F
Down in New Orleans.
Am C D F
Now the only thing a gambler needs,
Am C E7
Is a suitcase and a trunk,
Am C D F
And the only time, he's satisfied, is when
Am E Am C D F
He's on a drunk
[Solo]
[Verse 2]
Am C D F
Oh, mother, tell your children
Am C E7
Not to do what I have done -
Am C D F
Spend your lives in sin and misery
Am E Am C D F
In the House of Rising Sun
Am C D F
Well, I've got one foot on the platform,
Am C E7
The other's on the train,
Am C D F
I'm going back to New Orleans,
Am E Am C D F
to wear that ball and chain.
Am C D F
Well, there is a house in new Orleans
Am C E7
They call the "Rising Sun",
Am C D F
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
Am E Am C D F
And God I know i'm one
Verse 1: D
We were both young when I first saw you
G
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
Bm G
Im standing there on a balcony of summer air
D
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
G
I see you make your way through the crowd
Bm
You say hello
A
Little did I know
[Pre-Chorus] G A
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
Bm D
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
G
And I was crying on the staircase
A Bm G A
Begging you please don't go, and I said
[Chorus] D
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
A
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
Bm
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
G A D
Its a love story baby just say yes
[Verse 2]
D
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
G
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
Bm
So close your eyes
A
Escape this town for a little while
[Pre-Chorus]
G A
'Cause you were Romeo I was a scarlet letter
Bm D
and my daddy said stay away from Juliet
G
But you were everything to me I was
A Bm G A
Begging you please don't go, and I said
[Chorus]
D
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

I'll be waiting all theres left to do is run
Bm
You be the prince i'll be the princess
G A
Its a love story baby just say yes

This love is difficult, but it's real,

Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
G A
Its a love story baby just say yes, oh
[Solo]
D A Bm G A
[Bridge]
Bm G D A
I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around
Bm G
My faith in you was fading
D A
When I met you on the outskirts of town and I said
[Chorus]
D
Romeo save me i've been feeling so alone
A
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Bm
Is this in my head, I don't know what to think
G A
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said
E
Marry me, Juliet you'll never have to be alone
B
I love you, and that's all I really know
C#m
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
A B E

Appreciate every mix tape your friends make. You never know when we come and go

Lyrics-
Take this pink ribbon off my eyes
I'm exposed
And it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know
Exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me
To hold your hand
Bm A G A
'Cause I am just a girl, little ol' me
Bm A G A
Don't let me out of your sight
Bm A G A
I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite
Bm A G A
So don't let me have any rights
G C (the G and C are palm muted)
Oh...I've had it up to here!
The moment that I step outside
So many reasons
For me to run and hide
I can't do the little things
I hold so dear
'Cause it's all those little things
That I fear
Bm A
'Cause I am just a girl
G A
I'd rather not be
Bm A
'Cause they won't let me drive
G A
Late at night
Bm A
I'm just a girl
G A
Guess I'm some kind of freak
Bm A
'Cause they all sit and stare
G A
With their eyes
Bm A
I'm just a girl
G A
Take a good look at me
Bm A G A
Just your typical prototype
G C (the G and C are palm muted)
Oh...I've had it up to here!
Bm-A-G-A thing 4 times>
G C (G and C muted)
Oh...I am making myself clear?
I'm just a girl
I'm just a girl in the world...
That's all that you'll let me be!
Bm A G A
I'm just a girl, living in captivity
Bm
Your rule of thumb
A G A
Makes me worry some
Bm A G A
I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?
Bm
What I've succumbed to
A G A
Is making me numb
Bm A G A
I'm just a girl, my apologies
Bm A G A
What I've become is so burdensome
Bm A G A
I'm just a girl, lucky me
Bm A G A
Twiddle-dum there's no comparison
G C (G's and C's muted throughout)
Oh...I've had it up to!
G C
Oh...I've had it up to!
G C Bm
Oh...I've had it up to here!
