[Verse 1]
Gm7 D# A#
Guess it's true, I'm not good at a one-night stand
Gm7 D# A#
But I still need love cause I'm just a man
Gm7 D# A#
These nights never seem to go to plan
Gm7 F5/D# A#
I don't want you to leave, will you hold my hand?
[Chorus]
Gm D# A#
Won't you stay with me?
Gm D# A#
Cause you're all I need
F Gm D# A#
This ain't love it's clear to see
F#dim Gm D# A#
But darling, stay with me
Gm7 D# A#
Why am I so emotional?
Gm7 D# A#
No it's not a good look, gain some self control
Gm7 D# A#
And deep down I know this never works
Gm7 F5/D# A#
But you can lay with me so it doesn't hurt
[Chorus]
Gm D# A#
Won't you stay with me?

F#m
They made up their minds
Bm
And they started packing
C#7 F#m
They left before the sun came up that day
F#7 Bm
An exit to eternal summer slacking
F#m C#7
But where were they going without ever
F#m
Knowing the way?
F#m
They drank up the wine
Bm
And they got to talking
C#7 F#m
They now had more important things to say
F#7 Bm
When the car broke down they started walking
F#m C#7
Where were they going without even
F#m E
Knowing the way?
[Chorus]
E A
Anyone can see the road that they walk on
E
Is paved with gold
F#m
It's always summer
C#7
They'll never get cold
D
They'll never get hungry
A E
They'll never get old and grey
A E
You can see their shadows wandering off somewhere
F#m
They won't make it home
C#7
But they really don't care
D
They wanted the highway
A E C#7
They're happier there today
[Verse]
F#m
Their children woke up
Bm
And they couldn't find them
C#7 F#m
They left before the sun came up that day
F#7 Bm
They just drove off and left it all behind'em
F#m C#7
But where were they going without ever
F#m E
Knowing the way?
[Chorus]

Anyone can see the road that they walk on

Is paved with gold

They'll never get hungry

They'll never get old and grey

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

Listen to the song for rhythm and the layout of the song. Ive tried to tab out the
as best as i could and hope its clear enough to understand.
Lyrics-
said a hip hop
the hippie the hippie
to the hip hip hop, a you dont stop the rock it
to the bang bang boogie, say up jumped the boogie
to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat
now what you hear is not a test--i'm rappin to the beat
and me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
see i am wonder mike and i like to say hello
to the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
but first i gotta bang bang the boogie to the boogie
say up jump the boogie to the bang bang boogie
let's rock, you dont stop
rock the riddle that will make your body rock
well so far you've heard my voice but i brought two friends along
and next on the mike is my man hank
come on, hank, sing that song
check it out, i'm the c-a-s-an-the-o-v-a
and the rest is f-l-y
ya see i go by the code of the doctor of the mix
and these reasons i'll tell ya why
ya see i'm six foot one and i'm tons of fun
and i dress to a T
ya see i got more clothes than muhammad ali and i dress so viciously
i got bodyguards, i got two big cars
that definitely ain't the wack
i got a lincoln continental and a sunroof cadillac
so after school, i take a dip in the pool
which really is on the wall
i got a color tv so i can see
the knicks play basketball
hear me talkin bout checkbooks, credit cards
more money than a sucker could ever spend
but i wouldnt give a sucker or a bum from the rucker
not a dime till i made it again
everybody go, hotel motel
what you're gonna do today (say what)
cause i'm going to get a fly girl, gonna get some spanking drive off off in a fresh oj.
go hotel, motel, holiday inn
say if your girl starts actin up, then you take her friend
master g, my mellow
its on you so what you gonna do
well it's on n on n on on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
i said m-a-s, t-e-r, a g with a double e
i said i go by the unforgettable name
of the man they call the master gee
well, my name is known all over the world
by all the foxy ladies and the pretty girls
i'm goin down in history
as the baddest rapper there ever could be
now i'm feelin the highs and ya feelin the lows
the beat starts gettin into your toes
ya start poppin ya fingers and stompin your feet
and movin your body while youre sittin in your seat
and the damn ya start doin the freak
i said damn, right outta your seat
then ya throw your hands high in the air
ya rockin to the rhythm, shake your derriere
ya rockin to the beat without a care
with the sureshot m.c.s for the affair
now, im not as tall as the rest of the gang
but i rap to the beat just the same
i dot a little face and a pair of brown eyes
all im here to do ladies is hypnotize
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on
like a hot buttered a pop da pop da pop dibbie dibbie

come alive yall gimme what ya got
i guess by now you can take a hunch
and find that i am the baby of the bunch
'but that's okay i still keep in stride
cause all i'm here to do is just wiggle your behind
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on

skiddlee beebop a we rock a scoobie doo
and guess what america we love you
cause ya rocked and a rolled with so much soul
you could rock till you're a hundred and one years old
i dont mean to brag i don't mean to boast
but we like hot butter on our breakfast toast
rock it up a baby bubbah
baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang da boogie
to the beat beat, its so unique
come on everybody and dance to the beat
a hip hop
the hippie the hippie to the
hip hip hop, a you dont stop rock it
rock it out baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang
the boogie to the boogie da beat
i said i cant wait til the end of the week
when im rappin to the rhythm of a groovy beat
and attempt to raise your body heat
just blow your mind so that you can't speak
and do a thing bout a rock and shuffle your feet
and let it change up to a dance called the freak
and when ya finally do come in to your rhythmic beat
rest a little while so ya don't get weak
i know a man named hank
he has more rhymes than a serious bank
so come on hank sing that song
to the rhythm of the boogie da bang bang da bong
well, im imp the dimp the ladies pimp
the women fight for my delight
but im the grandmaster with the three mc's
that shock the house for the young ladies
and when you come inside, into the front
you do the freak, spank, and do the bump
and when the sucker mc's try to prove a point
[ Tab from- http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-sugarhill-gang/128630.html ]
we're treacherous trio, we're the serious joint
a from sun to sun and from day to day
i sit down and write a brand new rhyme
because they say that miracles never cease
i've created a devastating masterpiece
i'm gonna rock the mike till you cant resist
everybody, i say it goes like this
well i was comin home late one dark afternoon
a reporter stopped me for a interview
she said she's heard stories and she's heard fables
that i'm vicious on the mike and the turntable
this young reporter i did adore
so i rocked some vicious rhymes like i never did before
she said damn fly guy im in love with you
the casanova legend must have been true
i said by the way baby what's your name
said i go by the name of lois lane
and you could be my boyfiend you surely can
just let me quit my boyfriend called superman
i said he's a fairy i do suppoose
flyin through the air in pantyhose
he may be very sexy or even cute
but he looks like a sucker in a blue and red suit
i said you need a man who's got finesse
and his whole name across his chest
he may be able to fly all through the night
but can he rock a party til the early light
he cant satisfy you with his little worm
but i can bust you out with my super sperm
i go do it, i go do it, i go do it, do it , do it
an i'm here an i'm there i'm big bang hank, im everywhere
just throw your hands up in the air
and party hardy like you just dont care
let's do it don't stop yall a tick a tock yall you don't stop
go hotel motel what you gonna do today (say what)
im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spank drive off in a def oj
everybody go hotel motel holiday inn
you say if your girl starts actin up then you take her friend
i say skip, dive, what can i say
i can't fit em all inside my oj
so i just take half and bust them out
i give the rest to master gee so he could shock the house
it was twelve o'clock one friday night
i was rockin to the beat and feelin all right
everybody was dancin on the floor
doin all the things they never did before
and then this fly fly girl with a sexy lean
she came into the bar, she came into the scene
she traveled deeper inside the room
all the fellas checked out her white sasoons
she came up to the table, looked into my eyes
then she turned around and shook her behind
so i said to myself, its time for me to release
my vicious rhyme i call my masterpiece
and now people in the house this is just for you
a little rap to make you boogaloo
now the group ya hear is called phase two
and let me tell ya somethin we're a hell of a crew
once a week we're on the street
just a-cuttin' the jams and making it free
for you to party ya got to have the movies
so we'll get right down and give you the groove
for you to dance you gotta get hype
so we'll get right down for you tonight
now the system's on and the girls are there
ya definitely have a rockin affair
but let me tell ya somethin there's still one fact
and to have a party ya got to have a rap
so when the party's over you're makin it home
and tryin to sleep before the break of dawn
and while ya sleepin ya start to dream
and thinkin how ya danced on the disco scene
my name appears in your mind
yeah, a name you know that was right on time
it was phase two just a doin a do
rockin ya down cause ya know we could
to the rhythm of the beat that makes ya freak
come alive girls get on your feet
to the rhythm of the beat to the beat the beat
to the double beat beat that it makes ya freak
to the rhythm of the beat that says ya go on
on n on into the break of dawn
now i got a man comin on right now
he's guaranteed to throw down
he goes by the name of wonder mike
come on wonder mike do what ya like
i say a can of beer that's sweeter than honey
like a millionaire that has no money
like a rainy day that is not wet
like a gamblin fiend that does not bet
like dracula with out his fangs
like the boogie to the boogie without the boogie bang
like collard greens that dont taste good
like a tree that's not made out of wood
like goin up and not comin down
is just like the beat without the sound no sound
to the beat beat, ya do the freak
everybody just rock and dance to the beat
have you ever went over a friends house to eat
and the food just ain't no good
i mean the macaroni's soggy the peas are mushed
and the chicken tastes like wood
so you try to play it off like you think you can
by sayin that youre full
and then your friend says momma he's just being polite
he ain't finished uh uh that's bull
so your heart starts pumpin and you think of a lie
and you say that you already ate
and your friend says man there's plenty of food
so you pile some more on your plate
while the stinky foods steamin your mind starts to dreamin
of the moment that it's time to leave
and then you look at your plate and your chickens slowly rottin
into something that looks like cheese
oh so you say that's it i got to leave this place
i dont care what these people think
im just sittin here makin myself nauseous
with this ugly food that stinks
so you bust out the door while its still closed
still sick from the food you ate
and then you run to the store for quick relief
from a bottle of kaopectate
and then you call your friend two weeks later
to see how he has been
and he says i understand about the food
baby bubbah but we're still friends
with a hip hop the hippie to the hippie
the hip hip a hop a you don't stop the rockin
to the bang bang boogie
say up jump the boogie to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
i say hank can ya rock
can ya rock to the rhythm that just don't stop
can ya hip me to the shoobie doo
i said come on make the make the people move
i go to the halls and then ring the bell
because i am the man with the clientele
and if ya ask me why i rock so well
a big bang, i got clientele
and from the time i was only six years old
i never forgot what i was told
it was the best advice that i ever had
it came from my wise dear old dad
he said sit down punk i wanna talk to you
and don't say a word until im through
now there's a time to laugh a time to cry
a time to live and a time to die
a time to break and a time to chill
to act civilized or act real ill
but whatever ya do in your lifetime
ya never let a mc steal your rhyme
so from six to six til this very day
ill always remember what he had to say
so when the sucker mc's try to chump my style
i let them know that i'm versatile
i got style finesse and a little black book
that's filled with rhymes and i know you wanna look
but the thing that separates you from me
and that's called originality
because my rhymes are on from what you heard
i didnt even bite and not a go word
and i say a little more later on tonight
so the suker mc's can bite all night
a tick a tock yall a beat beat yall
a lets rock yall ya don't stop
ya go hotel motel whatcha gonna do today (say what)
ya say im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spankin

ya say if your girl starts actin up then you take her friends
a like that yall to the beat yall

a master gee my mellow
its on you so whatcha gonna do
well like johnny carson on the late show
a like frankie croker in stereo

whose name he earned with his super sperm
we rock and we don't stop
get off yall im here to give you whatcha got
to the beat that it makes you freak
and come alive girl get on your feet
a like a perry mason without a case
like farrah fawcett without her face

like comin alive to the master gee
the brother who rocks so viciously
i said the age of one my life begun
at the age of two i was doin the do
at the age of three it was you and me
rockin to the sounds of the master gee
at the age of four i was on the floor
givin all the freaks what they bargained for
at the age of five i didnt take no jive
with the master gee its all the way live
at the age of six i was a pickin up sticks

Em Em D6/9 D6/9 x2
[Verse 1]
Em D6/9
On the first part of the journey
Em D6/9
I was looking at all the life
Em D6/9
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
Em D6/9
There were sand and hills and rings
Em D6/9
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
Em D6/9
And the sky with no clouds
Em D6/9
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
Em D6/9
But the air was full of sound
[Chorus]
Em9 Dmaj9
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Em9 Dmaj9
It felt good to be out of the rain
Em9 Dmaj9
In the desert you can remember your name
Em9 Dmaj9
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
[Verse 2]
Em D6/9
After two days in the desert sun
Em D6/9
My skin began to turn red
Em D6/9
After three days in the desert fun
Em D6/9
I was looking at a river bed
Em D6/9
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Em D6/9
Made me sad to think it was dead
[Chorus]
Em9 Dmaj9
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Em9 Dmaj9
It felt good to be out of the rain
Em9 Dmaj9
In the desert you can remember your name
Em9 Dmaj9
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
[Verse 3]
Em D6/9
After nine days I let the horse run free
Em D6/9
'Cause the desert had turned to sea
Em D6/9
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
Em D6/9
There were sand and hills and rings
Em D6/9
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
Em D6/9
And a perfect disguise above
Em D6/9
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
Em D6/9
But the humans will give no love
[Chorus]
Em9 Dmaj9
You see, I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Em9 Dmaj9
It felt good to be out of the rain
Em9 Dmaj9
In the desert you can remember your name

'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain

[Verse 1] F# C# G#m B (8X)
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me /
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kinda dumb with her finger and her /
Thumb in the shape of an "L" on her forehead /
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running /
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb /
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets /
You'll never know if you don't go You'll never shine if you don't glow
[Chorus] F# B Cdim B (3X)
Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play
Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid
And all that glitters is gold
F# E B
Only shooting stars break the mold
[Verse 2] F# C# G#m B (4X)
It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now but wait 'til you get older /
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The waters getting warm so you might as well swim /
My world's on fire how about yours
That's the way I like it and I never get bored
[Chorus]
[Verse 3] F# C# G#m B (8X)
Somebody once asked, could I spare some change for gas
/I need to get myself away from this place /
I said yep what a concept I could use a little fuel myself /
And we could all use a little change /
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running /
Didn't make sense not to live for fun Y
our brain gets smart but your head gets dumb /
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets /
You'll never know if you don't go, go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
[Chorus 3
F# B Cdim B

[Verse 1] A Bbdim7 Bm Bm E E7 A A A Bbdim7 Bm Dm E E7 E E7
Blame it all on my roots / I showed up in boots
And ruined your black tie affair
The last one to know
The last one to show
I was the last one you thought you'd see there
And I saw the surprise
And the fear in his eyes
When I took his glass of champagne
I toasted you
Said honey we may be through
But you'll never hear me
Complain
[Chorus] A A Bm E A A A A7 Bm E A A
'Cause I got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
'Cause I've got friends
In low places
[Verse 2] A Bbdim7 Bm Bm E E7 A A A Bbdim7 Bm Dm E E7 E E7
Well, I guess I was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, I've been there before
Everything's alright
I'll just say goodnight
And I'll show myself to the door
Hey, I didn't mean
To cause a big scene
Just give me an hour and then
I'll be as high as that Ivory tower That you're livin'in
[Chorus]
G D/F# C D G D/F# C D
G D/F#
It's late in the evening
C D
She's wondering what clothes to wear
G D/F#
She puts on her make up
C D
And brushes her long blonde hair
C D
And then she asks me
G Bm/F# Em
Do I look alright
C D G D/F# C D
And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight
G D/F#
We go a party
C D
And everyone turns to see
G D/F#
This beautiful lady
C D
That's walking around with me
C D
And then she asks me
G Bm/F# Em
Do you feel alright
C D G
And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight
C
I feel wonderful
D G Bm/F# Em
Because I see the love light in your eyes
C D
And the wonder of it all
C D
Is that you just don't realize
G D/F# C D G D/F# C D
How much I love you
G D/F#
It's time to go home now
C D
And I've got an aching head
G D/F#
So I give her the car keys
C D
She helps me to bed
C D
And then I tell her
G Bm/F# Em
As I turn out the light
C D G Bm/F# Em Em/D
I say my darling, you were wonderful tonight
C D G D/F# C D G D/F# C D G
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight
intro - G / C / G / Am
verse - G / C/ G / Am x4
an old man turned 98, won the lottery and died the next day
it's a black fly in a new chardonney
it's a death row pardoned two minutes too late...
chorus- same as verse (x3)
its like rain on your wedding day
its a free ride when you've already paid
it's the good advice that you just didn't take
Bb / F / G
and who would have thought it figured
verse
traffic jams when you're already late
a no smoking sign on your cigarette break
its like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
its like meeting the man of your dreams then meeting his beautiful wife
chourus x2
Am/ G/ Am / C
life has a funny way of sneaking up on you when you think
every things ok and everything blows up in your face...
chorus
G Em Am D7
If you are falling, then I would catch you
G Em Am D7
You need a light, I'd find a match
Am D7 G Em
Cause I love the way you say good morning
Am D7 G
and you, take me the way I am
G Em Am D7
If you are chilly, here take my sweater
G Em Am D7
Your head is aching, i'll make it better
Am D7 G Em
Cause I love the way you call me baby
Am D7 G
and you take me the way I am
G Em Am D7
I'll buy you rogaine, when you start losing all your hair
G Em Am D7
Sew on patches, to all you tear
Am D7 G Em
Cause I love you more then I could ever promise
Am D7 G
and you take me the way I am.
Am D7 G
You take me the way I am
D D/F# G A D
When your legs don't work like they used to before
D/F# G A D
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
D/F# G A D
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love
D/F# G A
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks
D D/F# G A D D/F# G A
And darling I will be loving you till we're 17
D D/F# G A D D/F# G
And baby my heart could still fall as hard at 23
A Em A D
I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Em A
Maybe it's all part of a plan
Em A Bm
Or me I fall in love with you every single day
Em A
And I just wanna tell you right now…
D D/F# G
So honey now
A D D/F# G
Take me into your loving arms
A D D/F# G
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
A D D/F#
Place your head on my beating heart
G A
And I'm thinking out loud
Bm A G D/F# Em D
That maybe we found love right where we are
D D/F# G A D
When my hair's overgone and my memory fades
D/F# G A D
And the crowds don't remember my name
D/F# G A D
When my hands don't play the strings the same way
D/F# G A
I know you will still love me the same
D D/F# G A D D/F# G A
Cause honey your soul can never grow old, It's ever green
D D/F# G A D D/F# G
And baby your smile's forever in my mind in memory
A Em A D
I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Em A
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Em A Bm
Or I continue making the same mistakes
Em A
Hoping that you'll understand
D D/F# G
That baby now
A D D/F# G
Take me into your loving arms
A D D/F# G
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars

His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
Am C
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
Em D
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
Am C
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting
Em D
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
Am C
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
Em D
He's chokin' how, everybody's chokin' now
Am C
The clock's run out, times up, over, blaw!
Em D
Snap, back to reality, oh, there goes gravity
Am C Em
Oh, there goes Rabbit he choked, he's so mad but he won't
D Am
Give up that easy, no, he won't have it he knows
C Em
His whole back's to these ropes, it don't matter he's dope
D Am
He knows that but he's broke, he so stagnant he knows
C
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Em C
Back to the lab again, yo
Am
This whole rhapsody better go capture this moment
C
And hope it don't pass him (X3)
CHORUS-

The moment, you own it, you better never let it go
C Am
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
Em D
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo X2
Em, D
VERSE 2-
Em D
His soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping
Am C
This world is mine for the taking, make me king
Em D Am
As we move toward a new world order, a normal life is boring
C Em
But superstardom's close to post mortem
D Am
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
C Em
He blows it's all over, these h**s is all on him
D Am C
Coast to coast shows, he's known as the Globetrotter lonely roads
Em D
God only knows he's grown farther from home, he's no father
Am C
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
Em D
But hold your nose cuz here goes the cold water
Am C
These h**s don't want him no mo', he's cold product
Em D
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
Am C Em
He nose dove and sold nada, so the soap opera is told it unfolds
D Am
I suppose it's old partna, but the beat goes on
C
Da da dum, da dum da da da da
CHORUS
Em,D
No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this mothaf****n' roof off like two dogs caged
I was playin' in the beginning, the mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin' and stepped, writin' the next cipher
Best believe somebody's payin' the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the fact
That I can't get by with my 9 to 5
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cuz man, these *** damn food stamps don't buy diapers
And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder
Tryin' to feed and water my seed, plus teeter-totter
Caught up between bein' a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama's screamin' on and too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another day of monotony's
Gotten me to the point I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot
Success is my only mothaf****n' option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem's lot, so here I go it's my shot
Feet fail me not, this may be the only opportunity that I got
CHORUS
Verse 1: A
I have climbed highest mountains I have run through the fields
Dsus2 A
only to be with you, only to be with you
A
I have run, I have crawled
Dsus2 A
I have scaled these city walls, these city walls only to be with you
[Chorus 1] E Dsus2 A
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
[Verse 2] A
I have kissed honey lips Felt the healing in her fingertips
Dsus2 A
It burned like fire, this burning desire
A
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of the devil
Dsus2 A
It was warm in the night, I was cold as a stone
[Chorus 2]
[Verse 3] A
I believe in the kingdom come then all the colors they will
Dsus2
bleed into one, bleed into one
A
But yes I'm still running
A
You broke the bonds and you loosed the chains
Dsus2
carried the cross of, of my shame, of my shame
A
You know I believe it
Verse 1:
Oh, once upon a midnight eerie I woke with something in my head
I couldn't escape the memory Of a phone call and of what you said
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
I could not believe my eyes
When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend
Who needs to humor me and tell me lies,
yeah humor me and tell me lies
And I'll lie too and say I don't mind And as we seek so shall we find
And when you're feeling open I'll still be here
But not without a certain degree of fear
Well, what will be with you and me I still can see things hopefully
Chorus:
But you Why you wanna give me a run-around?
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up?
When all it does is slow me down
Verse 2:
Shake me and my confidence About a great many things
But I've been there I can see it cower
Like a nervous magician waiting in the wings
Of a bad play where the heroes are right
And nobody thinks or expects too much
And Hollywood's calling for the movie rights
Singing "Hey babe, let's keep in touch",
hey baby, let's keep in touch
But I want more than a touch I want you to reach me
And show me all the things no one else can see
So what you feel becomes mine as well
And soon if we're lucky we'd be unable to tell
What's yours and mine, the fishing's fine
And it doesn't have to rhyme, so don't you feed me a line
Chorus:
Verse 3:
Tra la la la la bombardier, this is the pilot speaking
I've got some news for you
It seems my ship still stands no matter what you drop
And there ain't a whole lot that you can do
Oh sure the banner may be torn and the wind's gotten colder
Perhaps I've grown a little cynical
But I know no matter what the waitress brings
I shall drink it and always be full, yeah I will drink it and always be full
Oh I like coffee and I like tea I'd like to be able to enter a final plea
I still got this dream that you just can't shake
I love you to the point you can no longer take
Well all right okay, so be that way
I hope and pray that there's something left to say
Chorus:

Em A Em A
You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone.
Em A G D
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried.

I suppose I could collect my books and get back to school.
A G D
Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool.
G D G A
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand,
Em F#m Em
Oh, Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face.

You made a first class fool out of me,

At this point an acoustic guitar enters strumming the chords. From this
point on, one of the electrics plays the riff during the verses, the part
shown above during the bridges, and strums the chords during the choruses
(Time is wasting..) and solo. The second electric plays the occasional
power chord during verses and bridges and strums along to the choruses.
It also takes the solo-

Please get out of the new one if you can't lend a hand
For the times they are a-changin'
Come senators, congressmen please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway, don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside and it's ragin'
It'll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'
The line it is drawn the curse it is cast
The slow one now will later be fast
As the present now will later be past
The order is rapidly fadin'
And the first one now will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'

Like the crack of the whip, I Snap attack
Front to back, in this thing called rap
Dinging like a cymbal, rhyme devil on the heavenly level
Bang the bass, turn up the treble
Radical mind, day and night all the time
7-14, wise divine
Maniac brainiac, winning the game
I'm the lyrical Jesse James
Quality I possess and say I'm fresh
When my voice goes through the mesh
Of the microphone, that I am holding
Copy written lyrics, so they can't be stolen
If they all Snap, don't need the police
To try to save them, your voice don't see
So peace, stay off my back
Or I will attack and you don't want that
I've got the power
I've got the power
I've got the power
I've got the power
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic

You'll find work and I'll get promoted,
Cmaj7 G
We'll move out of the shelter
Em D
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs.

And made you smile with every word I wrote (what would you do?)
Would that make you want to change your scene
And wanna be the one on my team (tell me, would you?)
See, what's the point of waiting anymore?
Cause girl I've never been more sure (that baby, it's you)
This ring here represents my heart
And everything that you've been waiting for (just say I do)

[T.I.'s rap-]
Shorty, cool as a fan
On the new once again
But, still has fan from Peru to Japan
Listen baby, I don't wanna ruin your plan
If you got a man, try to lose him if you can
Cause your girls real wild through your hands up high
When they wanna come kick it wit a stand up guy
You don't really wanna let the chance go by
Because you ain't been seen wit a man so fly
Friend so fly i can go fly
Private, cause I handle mine
B.I. they call me candle guy, simply because I am on fire
I hate to have to cancel my vacation so you can't deny
I'm patient, but I ain't gonna try
You don't come, I ain't gonna die
Hold up, what you mean, you can't go why?
Me and you boyfriend we ain't no tie
You say you wanna kick it with an ace so high
Baby, you decide that I ain't your guy
Ain't gon lie ,Me in your space
But forget your face, I swear I will
Same mark, same bullet anywhere I chill
Just bring wit me a pair, I will
[Chorus-]
I can see us holding hands
Walking on the beach, our toes in the sand
I can see us on the countryside
Sitting on the grass, laying side by side
You could be my baby, let me make you my lady
Girl, you amaze me
Ain't gotta do nothing crazy
See, all I want you to do is be my love
(Love) My love
(Love) My love

How can I be strong I've asked myself

Time and time I've said

That I'll never fall in love with you again

A wounded heart you gave

My soul you took away

Good intentions you had many

Don't think I can take the pain

No never fall again

Kinda late in the game

Again
(Don't forget about us)
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
My baby boy
Just let it die
With no goodbyes
Details don't matter
We both paid the price
Tears in my eyes
You know sometimes
It'd be like that baby
Now every time I see you
I pretend I'm fine
When I wanna reach out to you
But I turn and I walk and I let it ride
Baby I must confess
We were bigger than anything
Remember us at our best
And don't forget about
[Chorus]
Late nights, playin' in the dark
And wakin' up inside my arms
Boy, you'll always be in my heart and
I can see it in your eyes
You still want it
So don't forget about us
I'm just speaking from experience
Nothing can compare to your first true love
So I hope this will remind you
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us
Oh they say
That you're in a new relationship
But we both know
Nothing comes close to
What we had, it perseveres
That we both can't forget it
How good we used to get it
There's only one me and you
And how we used to shine
No matter what you go through
We are one, that's a fact
That you can't deny
So baby we just can't let
The fire pass us by
Forever we'd both regret
So don't forget about
[Chorus]
And if she's got your head all messed up now
That's the trickery
She'll wanna have like you know how this lovin' used to be
I bet she can't do like me
She'll never be M-C
Baby don't you, don't you forget about us
[Chorus- x2]
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us.

Verse 1 Backstroke lover always hidin' ‘neath the cover,
Still I talked to your daddy he say,
He said you ain't seen nothing
‘Til you're down on a muffin,
Then you're sure to be a-changin' your ways.
I met a cheerleader, was a real young bleeder,
All the times I can reminisce,
‘Cause the best thing lovin'
With her sister and her cousin
Only started with a little kiss, like this!

Verse 3 School girl Sadie with the classy, Kinda sassy,
Little skirt climbing way up her knees,
There was three young ladies in the ground gym locker
When I noticed they was lookin' at me.
I was a high school loser
Never made it with a lady
Till the boys told me something I missed,
Then my next door neighbour
With a daughter had a favour,

So I gave her just a little kiss, like this!
