Hey yo we're doing this for the people that love it,
And good music it'll never be done with,
The Train Walkers, you could find us in public,
And you already know we gonna keep it 100

Rap Lex (8 bars)
Keep it A1 with my day onesLinking to bump Raekwon /
Older gods like pagans
We don't run with fake ones / We don't buck with ray guns /
They bring ya down and weigh tons /
You know the classic saying How you get the cake up /
Location, location, location
So we stay on the trains and making the money and play in /
Then reinvest in our legionKeep it a buck for the reup
So everytime we meet upWe got the fuel to heat up
Verse 1: Adrian
Now you could find us underground, or above it,
As we're singing a song to sing along with,
And yo the only plan we have is keep on winning,
As we keep it 100 just like the beats per minute, /
And speaking of winning yo this is just the beginning
and we don't need recognition just need the people to listen, /
I'm talking music from the soul
with a little bit of country, rap, and rock and roll let's go
Chorus:
This is for the people who love it,
Good music it'll never be done with,
Train Walkers you could find us in public,
You already know that we gonna keep it 100
RAP LEX (8 bars)
Queens get the money like a Nas venture capital
Juicy good and plenty all the strategies is tactical /
Don't care if you simpatio Only got the nano flow
Small and don't hold weightUsed to rob six packs /
What I call a cold caseNo killer but stone face
A true teenage dirt bagSmoked out on the burnt ends /T
ried to play the merchant but couldn't put the work in
Now I'm cooking terpenes 100 for certain
Verse 2
Yeah we gonna keep it 100,as we're keeping it real, /
And we gonna keep on performing with or without a record deal, /
Yeah,and even though I know that it's a challenge
imma try to keep my balance as I rap it in spanish, /
Y cada vez que yo rapeo adentro yo siento fuego,
Combinando el estilo caballero y callejero, /
Y te prometo que dinero no es primero pero,
Para hacer cambio, Es necesario
Chorus:
This is for the people who love it /
Good music it'll never be done with,
Train Walkers you could find us in public/
You already know that we gonna keep it 100

What would you do
To get to me
What would you say
To have your way

Would you give up
Or try again

Or would you be yourself
Or play your role
Tell all the boys
Or keep it low

If I say no
Would you turn away
Or play me off
Or would you stay

If at first you don't succeed

Dust yourself off and try again
You can dust it off and try again

Not 'til I see
What this could be
Be eternity

Intro-
D5 C Am G C
Uh, Young Money
Am G
I know way too many people here right now
C
That I didn't know last year, who the fuck are y'all?
Am G
I swear it feels like the last few nights
C Am
we been everywhere and back but, I just can't remember it all
G C
What am I doin'? What am I doin'?
Am G
Oh, yeah, that's right, I'm doin' me, I'm doin me
C
I'm livin' life right now, mayne
Am G
And this what I'ma do 'til it's over, ‘til it's over
But it's far from over
E5
Bottles on me, long as someone drink it
Never drop the ball, fuck are y'all thinkin'?
Makin' sure the Young Money ship is never sinkin'
‘Bout to set it off, set it off, Jada Pinkett
I shouldn't've drove, tell me how I'm gettin' home
You too fine to be layin' down in bed alone
I could teach you how to speak my language, Rosetta Stone
I swear this life is like the sweetest thing I've ever known
‘Bout to go Thriller Mike Jackson on these n***s
All I need's a fucking red jacket with some zippers
Super good smiddoke, a package of the swishers
I did it overnight, it couldn't happen any quicker
Y'all know them? Well, fuck it, me either
But point the biggest skeptic out, I'll make him a believer
It wouldn't be the first time I done it, throwin' hundreds
When I should be throwin' ones, , I run it (Ah)
Chorus
E5
One thing 'bout music, when it hits you feel no pain
And I swear I got that shit that make these es go insane
So they tell me that they love me, I know better than that, it's just game
It's just what comes with the fame, and I'm ready for that, I'm just sayin'
But I really can't complain, everything is kosher
Two thumbs up, Ebert and Roeper
I really can't see the end getting any closer
But I prolly still be the man when everything is over
So I'm riding through the city with my high beams on
Can you see me? Can you see me? Get your Visine on
Y'all just do not fit the picture, turn your widescreen on
If you thinkin' I'ma quit before I die, dream on
Man, they treat me like a legend, am I really this cold?
I'm really too young to be feelin' this old
It's about time you admit it, who you kiddin', man?
Man, nobody's never done it like I did it (Ugh)
Chorus
C
But it's far from over
Am G
Yeah, that's right, I'm doin' me, I'm doin me
C
I'm livin' life right now, mayne
Am G
And this what I'ma do 'til it's over, ‘til it's over
Am
But it's far from over
A Amaj7 F#m
I can't fight this feeling any longer

And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow

I only wish I had the strength to let it show

I tell myself that I can't hold out forever

On a cold dark winter's night

And I'm getting closer than
E D
I ever thought I might
(Chorus-)
D A Bm7 D
And I can't fight this feeling anymore
A Bm7 D
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
A Bm7
It's time to bring this ship into the shore
C#m D E D
And throw away the oars forever
D A Bm7 D
Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore
A Bm7
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
D A Bm7
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
C#m D
Come crashing through your door
E A + Intro
Baby I can't fight this feeling anymore
A Amaj7 F#m
My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you
Bm7 E
I've been running 'round in circles in my mind
A E Em F#7
And it always seems that I'm following you girl
Bm7 C#m
Cause you take me to the places

That alone I'd never find

Let's go numb

I can feel you now
Keep on doing the same old thing
And you expecting change
Well is that really insanity
Or just a losers' game?
I only trust in the things I feel
Some may say that's strange
You better recognize what is real
Cause forever is a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long time
Some things never change, here we go again
Feel like I'm losing my mind
Shake it off, let it go, I don't care any more
Let's go numb
You never know until you let go
We all go numb
I can feel you now

I can feel you now
I can feel you now
I can feel you now
But you can't feel it, do ya?

I can feel you now

I can feel you now

I can feel you now

* Alternate-
Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons
Packed up and ready to go
Heard of some gravesites out by the highway
A place where nobody knows
The sound of gunfire off in the distance
I'm getting used to it now
Lived in a brownstone, lived in a ghetto
I've lived all over this town
/ Am - - AmAm7 / -
{Refrain}
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
This ain't no fooling around
No time for dancing or lovey dovey
I ain't got time for that now
/ E - - - / -
Transmit the message to the receiver
Hope for an answer some day
I got three passports, a couple of visas
You don't even know my real name
High on a hillside, the trucks are loading
Everything's ready to roll
I sleep in the daytime, I work in the nighttime
I might not ever get home
{Refrain}
...This ain't no mudd club, or CBGB...
Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit?
Heard about Pittsburgh, PA?
You oughta know not to stand by the window
Somebody see you up there
I got some groceries, some peanut butter
To last a couple of days
But I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no headphones
Ain't got no records to play
{As refrain}
Why stay in college? Why go to night school?
Gonna be different this time
Can't write a letter, can't send no postcard
I ain't got no time for that now
Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock
We blended in with the crowd
We got computers, we're tapping phone lines
I know that that ain't allowed
We dress like students, we dress like housewives
Or in a suit and a tie
I changed my hairstyle so many times now
I don't know what I look like
You make me shiver, I feel so tender
We make a pretty good team
Don't get exhausted, I'll do some driving
You ought to get you some sleep
Burned all my notebooks, what good are notebooks
They won't help me survive
My chest is aching, burns like a furnace
The burning keeps me alive
Capo on 3rd fret
G D
You think I'm pretty
Am C
Without any makeup on
G D
You think I'm funny
Am C
When I tell the punchline wrong
G D
I know you get me

So I let my walls come down, down

Before you met me

I was alright but things

You brought me to life

Baby, what do you say we just get lost
Leave this one horse town like two rebels without a cause
I've got people in Boston, ain't your daddy still in Des Moines
We can pack up tomorrow, tonight let's flip a coin
Heads Carolina, tails California
Somewhere greener, somewhere warmer
Up in the mountains, down by the ocean
Where it don't matter, long as we're goin'
Somewhere together, I've got a quarter
Heads Carolina, tails California
We can load what we own in the back of a U-Haul van
Couple of modern day Moses' searchin' for the promised land
We can go four hundred miles before we stop for gas
We could drive for a day and then we'll take a look at the map
Oh, heads Carolina, tails California
Somewhere greener, somewhere warmer
Up in the mountains, down by the ocean
Where it don't matter, long as we're goin'
Somewhere together, I've got a quarter
Heads Carolina, tails California
We're gonna get out of here if we gotta ride a Greyhound bus
Boy, we're bound to outrun the bad luck that's tailin' us
I was out with the boys, catchin' up at a neon light
Didn't know 'til we walked in, it was karaoke night
She was in a circle of girls, chasin' a shot with a lime
She was laughin', they were darin' her to get on the mic
One of 'em walked up and turned in her name
Next thing I knew, man, she was up on the stage, singin'
"Heads Carolina, tails California"
Maybe she'd fall for a boy from South Georgia
She's got the bar in the palm of her hand
And she's a '90s country fan like I am
Hey, I got a Chevy, she can flip a quarter
I'd drive her anywhere from here to California
When this song is over, I gotta find her
'Cause she had me at "Heads Carolina"
Yeah, she knew every word by heart, didn't need no screen, no
I was raisin' my glass up for her, I saw her smilin' at me, yeah
She had me down in the front by the end of verse two
Like there wasn't no-one else in the room, we were singin'
"Heads Carolina, tails California"
Maybe she'd fall for a boy from South Georgia
She's got the bar in the palm of her hand
And she's a '90s country fan like I am
Hey, I got a Chevy, she can flip a quarter
I'd drive her anywhere from here to California
When this song is over, I gotta find her
'Cause she had me at "Heads Carolina"
Yeah, I bought her a round, and we talked 'til the lights came on
I still see that girl every time I hear that song
"Heads Carolina, tails California"
Maybe she'd fall for a boy from South Georgia
She's got the bar in the palm of her hand
And she's a '90s country fan like I am
Hey, I got a Chevy, she can flip a quarter
I'd drive her anywhere from here to California
When this song is over, I gotta find her
'Cause she had me at "Heads Carolina"
Yeah, she had me at "Heads Carolina" (somewhere greener, somewhere warmer)
(Heads Carolina, tails California)
Yeah (somewhere greener, somewhere warmer)
(Heads Carolina)
(Somewhere together, I've got a quarter)
(Heads Carolina, tails California)

I should be over all the butterflies

Recount the night that I first met your mother

And on the drive back to my house
I told you that, I told you that I loved ya

You felt the weight of the world fall off your shoulder

And to your favorite song
We sang along to the start of forever

Cause after all this time
C F
I'm still into you

I should be over all the butterflies

Verse 1-
Bmaj7 B7 Emaj7
As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
Bmaj7 Amaj7
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Bmaj7 B7
Just as hate knows love's the cure
Emaj7
You can rest your mind assure
G#m A#m D#7 G#m7 G#m6 C#m7 F#7
That I'll be loving you always
Verse 2-
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
Do know what I say is true
G#m A#m D#7 (G#m)
That I'll be loving you always
Chorus 1-
G#m D#7/A# B C#
(Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky)
Always
G#m D#7/A# B C#
(Until the ocean covers every mountain high)
Always
G#m D#7/A# B C#
(Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea)
G#m D#7/A# B [1- F9; to bridge]
Always [others- C#]
(Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream)
Bridge-
Emaj7 Bmaj7
Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Emaj7 Dmaj9
Her acceptance is the way we came
Emaj7 Bmaj7
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
C#m7 A#m7/D# D#7 C#m9 F#13
To last through forever and another day (just)
Verse 3-
Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I'll be loving you always
Verse 4-
As today I know I'm living but tomorrow
Could make me that past but that I mustn't fear
For I'll know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
'Cause I'll be loving you always
Chorus 2 [chorus chord progression continues to fade]-
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and sea just up and fly away
Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Chorus 3-
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through
Until the day that you are me and I am you
[repeat first two lines of chorus 1]
[piano solo]
Interlude-
We all know sometimes life's hate and troubles
Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet your life times that and twice its double
That God knew exactly where He wanted you to be placed
So make sure when you say you're in it but not of it
You're not helping to make this Earth a place sometimes called Hell
Change your words into truths and then change that truth into love
And maybe our children's grandchildren
And their great-great-grandchildren will tell
I'll be loving you...
[repeat choruses 1, 2, 3]
Always...
Am F
As a matter of fact I was the one who said I love you first
C G
It was about eight years ago, don't act like you don't know
We were sittin' at home in your mama's livin' room
Cause, we couldn't be alone
See your mama knew I was something else, she knew how I felt
Back then we were in school; and that's your favourite excuse
Growin' up I was a fool; and I can't lie I'm missing you
Listen and don't trip
I think I need a bottle with a genie in it
Here's my wish list
First one, I would create a heart changing love
Second one, I'll take yours and fill it all up
Third one, but I don't need a lot of wishes cause I'll be okay if I get one
If I had one wish, we would be best friends
Love would never end, it would just begin
If I had one wish, you would be my boo
Promise to love you, trust me I'll trust you
If I had one wish, we would run away
Making love all day, have us a baby
If I had one wish, I'd make you my whole life
And you'd be my wife, make it right this time
If I had one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
[ Tab from- http://www.guitaretab.com/r/ray-j/367144.html ]
Now tell me is this the only way I can get you right back in
If so then searchin' I'll go, then I can have you for sho
Then you'll be loving me, holding me, kissing me
So girl don't tell me what I'm feeling is make believe
I swear if I lose a second chance with you
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd probably check myself into some kind of clinic
I couldn't be alone because without you I'm sick
Here's my wish list
First one, I would create a heart changing love
Second one, I'll take yours and fill it all up
Third one, but I don't need a lot of wishes cause I'll be okay if I get one
If I had one wish, we would be best friends
Love would never end, it would just begin
If I had one wish, you would be my boo
Promise to love you, trust me I'll trust you
If I had one wish, we would run away
Making love all day, have us a baby
If I had one wish, I'd make you my whole life
And you'd be my wife, make it right this time
If I had one wish
I don't even know how we ended upon this road
And, even though we are grown, Girl I just want you to know
If I had one wish, we would be best friends
Love would never end, it would just begin
If I had one wish, you would be my boo
Promise to love you, trust me I'll trust you
If I had one wish, we would run away
Making love all day, have us a baby
If I had one wish, I'd make you my whole life
And you'd be my wife, make it right this time

Norway no you didn't get my flowers
No way to sound better but the killer was a Coward
Face just showers, the minute in a hour
Heard about the news all day went sour
Lil mama got me feeling like a limit here
Put you in the box just the presidents cigarettes
Give em my regards or regardless I get arrested
Ain't worried about the killers just the young & restless
Get mad coz the quarter million on my necklace

Sacrifice just to make a hit still vivid
Rihanna kiss you on ya neck just kill critics
Buggatti never when I'm rich, just god fearing
Look at me steering, got the bossing staring
Mr mike caren, tell his Billie Jeans

[Verse]
[D] We belong together [Dsus4]
[F#m] And you know I'm [Bm7] right
[G] Why do you [A] play with my heart,
Why [G/E] do you play with my [G/A] mind?
[D] Said we'd be forever [Dsus4]
[F#m] Said it'd never [Bm7] die
[G] How could you [A] love me and leave me
and [G/E] never say [G/A] good-bye?
[Bridge]
When I [Bm] can't sleep at night without [F#] holding you tight
Girl [D/A] each time I try I just [G#dim7] break down and cry
[GM7/G] Pain in my head, Oh, I'd [A] rather be dead
[GM7/E] Spinning around and [GM7/A]around
[Chorus]
Although we've [D] come
to the [Em7/D] end [D] of the [A/B] road
still I [Bm7] can't [A/F#] let [G2] go
It's un[D/F#]natural
You be[G/E] long to me.
I be[G/A] long to you.
[Verse]
[D] Girl I know you really love me
[F#m7] You just don't rea[Bm7]lize
[G] You've never [A] been there before
It's [G/E] only your first [G/A] time.
[D] Maybe I'll forgive you
[F#m] Maybe you'll [Bm7] try.
[G] We should be [A] happy together
for[G/E] ever you and [G/A] I
[Bridge]
[Bm] Will you love me again
like you [F#] loved me before
[D/A] This time I want you to
[G#dim7] love me much more
[GM7/G] This time instead
Just [A/F#] come to my bed
And [G/E] baby just don't let me [GM7/A] go
[Chorus]
Although we've [D] come
to the [Em7/D] end [D] of the [A/B] road
still I [Bm7] can't [A/F#] let [G2] go
It's un[D/F#]natural
You be[G/E] long to me.
I be[G/A] long to you.

Get out, Right now,

It's the end you and me,
Gm Dm
It's too late and I can't wait,

For you to be gone, Cause I know,
Gm Dm
About her, and I wonder
C Bb
How I bought all the lies
Gm Dm
That said that you would treat me right,
C Bb
But you was just a waste of time.
Verse 2- (Main Riff on Acoustic)
Tell me why you're lookin' so confused,
When I'm the one who didn't know the truth.
How could you ever be so cold?
To go behind my back and call my friend,
Boy you must've gone and bumped your head,
Because you left her number on your phone.
(So now after all is said and done,)
Maybe I'm the one to blame, but..
(To think that you could be the one,)
But it didn't work out that way.

Got a job that's okay
But they got me working night and day
Punching in, punching out
Is this really what life's all about?
(What'cha gonna do, what'cha gonna feel?)
I don't know
(What'cha gonna feel, what'cha gonna do?)
Ooh, won't someone tell me
(What'cha wanna say, what'cha wanna do?)
There's only one thing left to say
(What'cha wanna say, what'cha wanna say?)
(C'est la vie, c'est la vie)
That's just the way it goes
(That's life)
Oh, yeah
(C'est la vie, c'est la vie)
That's just the way it goes

Baby's gone, all alone
Are you sad because you're on your own?
Get that girl, party down
There's so many good ones still around
(What'cha gonna do, what'cha gonna feel?)
I don't know
(What'cha gonna feel, what'cha gonna do?)
Ooh, won't someone tell me
(What'cha wanna say, what'cha wanna do?)
I guess there's just one thing to say
(What'cha wanna say, what'cha wanna say?)
Woo
(C'est la vie, c'est la vie)
That's just the way it goes
(That's life)
Oh, yeah, ooh

That's just the way it goes
(That's life)
Oh
Hey it's J.J, what you been doin'
You say your car broke down, the thing just isn't movin'
J.J.J., don't you know
When you're down there's just one way to go
Now sing it
(C'est la vie, c'est la vie)
That's just the way it goes
(That's life)
Sometimes
(C'est la vie, c'est la vie)
That's just the way it goes

That's just the way it goes

Ooh, yeah

Verse 1:
You have my heart,
and we'll never be worlds apart /
Maybe in magazines,
but you'll still be my star /
Baby, 'cause in the dark /
You can't see shiny cars /
And that's when you need me there /
With you I'll always share
Chorus
When the sun shines,
we'll shine together /
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend /
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever /
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella /
You can stand under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh,
Verse 2:
These fancy things
will never come in between
You're part of my entity,
here for infinity
When the world has took its part
When the world has dealt its cards
If the hand is hard,
together we'll mend your heart

1. I took my baby on a Saturday bang,
Boy is that girl with you ? Yes, we're one and the same.

Now I believe in miracles,

I had to tell them, I ain't second to none.

And I told about equality,

But, if you're thinkin' about my baby,

it don't matter if you're black or white.

I`m tired of this devil, I`m tired of this stuff,

I`m tired of this business, so when the going gets rough.

I ain't scared of your brother, I ain't scared of no sheets,

I ain't scared of nobody, girl when the goin' gets mean.
BLACK OR WHITE, 2
3. (rapping) in D
Protection for gangs, clubs, and nations,
causing grief in human relations.
It's a turf war on a global scale,
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale.
See, it's not about races, just places, faces.
Where your blood comes from is where your space is.
I've seen the bright get duller,
I'm not going to spend my life being a color.
G
Don't tell me you agree with me,
D G G G D G G G D ~
when I saw you kicking dirt in my eye.

But, if you're thinkin' about my baby,

Tuning- Standard
Verse 1- D, G
When dreaming I'm guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
Refrain- F#, G
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Chorus-
D A G
Can you take me higher?
D A G
To a place where blind men see
D A G
Can you take me higher?
D A G
To a place with golden streets
Verse 2- D, G
Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate
Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth and my dreams the same
The only difference is
To let love replace all our hate
Refrain 2- F#, G
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Chorus-
D A G
Can you take me higher?
D A G
To a place where blind men see
D A G
Can you take me higher?
D A G
To a place with golden streets
D A G
Up High I feel like I'm alive for the very first time
D A G
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams, and make them mine
D A G
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams, and make them mine

Verse 1:
Closed off from love I didn’t need the pain
Once or twice was enough And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass Before you know it you’re frozen
But something happened For the very first time with you
My heart melted to the ground Found something true
And everyone’s looking round Thinking I’m going crazy
[Pre-Chorus]
But I don’t care what they say I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
[Chorus] Keep bleeding Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding Keep, keep bleeding love You cut me open
[Verse 2]
Trying hard not to hear But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal Is to keep me from falling
But nothing’s greater Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness I see your face
Yet everyone around me Thinks that I’m going crazy, maybe, maybe
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
F#m
And it’s draining all of me
D
Oh they find it hard to believe
E
I’ll be wearing these scars

[Chorus]
[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]
[Bridge] Em G
I've tried to hide it so that no one knows
C
But I guess it shows
C D
When you look into my eyes

What you did and where you're comin from

Am
We do not exist in
G
Any other instant
Dm
Here in this dimension
F
You and I are meant to be
Am
I have waited lifetimes to find you
G
Now that you're here
I can remind you
Dm
Of the things you've been dreamin'
Times two
F
I promise you
Am
If you just give me 24
G
Man, all I need is 24 hours
Dm
I promise you'll want plenty more
F
You'll probably be with it forever
Am G
So how does it sound
Us on the ground
Dm F
Giving you my love?
Am G
There's no place quite like here
Dm
There's no better time than now
F
You gotta stay ready
Am G
There's no place quite like here
Dm
There's no better time than now
F
That's why I stay ready
(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
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
Am
I been through some shit man
But I be on my shit man
G
I decided
That what you give
Is what you're given
Dm
So I been tryna do it right
I been doin' like
F
Whatever gets me through the night
What a life
Am G
I'm steady always on the go
Dm
You steady always on the go
F
We steady losin' all control
What a life
They say
Am
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
F
'Cause you just get me

If everything is dipped in gold

CHORUS
Em C D
My tea's gone cold, I'm wonderin' why
G D Em
Got out of bed at all
C D
The morning rain clouds up my window
G D Em
And I can't see at all
C D
And even if I could it'll all be gray
G D Em
But your picture on my wall
C D
It reminds me that it's not so bad
G D Em
It's not so bad
(The whole song continues in that chord progression)
Em C D
My tea's gone cold, I'm wonderin' why

1ST VERSE
Em C D
Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin
G D Em
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
C D
I sent two letters back in Autumn, you must not have got 'em
G D
There probably was a problem with the post office or somethin'
Em C D
Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em
G D Em
But anyway, what's been up man, how's your daughter?
C
My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm bout to be a father
D C
If I have a daughter, guess what I'm a call her
Em
I'm a name her Bonnie
C
I read about your Uncle Ronnie too, I'm sorry
D G D Em
I had a friend kill himself over some b**** who didn't want him
C D
I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm your biggest fan
G D Em
I even got that underground s*** that you did with Skam
C D
I got a room full of your posters and your pictures man
G D Em
I like that s*** you did with Rawkus too, that s*** was phat
C
Anyways, I hope you get this man, hit me back
D C
Just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan, this is Stan

2ND VERSE
Em C
Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance,
D G Em
I ain't mad, I think it's just f***** up that you don't answer fans
C
If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your concert
D G D
You didn't have to, but you could've signed an autograph for Matthew
Em C
That's my little brother man, he's only six years old
D
We waited in the blistering cold for you
G D Em
For four hours and you just said no
C
That's pretty s****y man, you're like his f***ing idol
D C Em
He wants to be just like you man, he likes you more than I do
C
I ain't that mad though, I just don't like being lied to
C G D
Remember when we met in Denver, you said if I write you
Em C
You would write back, see I'm just like you in a way
D
I never knew my father neither
G D Em
He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
C
I can relate to what you're saying in your songs
D G D
So when I have a s****y day, I drift away and put em on
Em C
Cause I don't really got s*** else, so that s*** helps when I'm depressed
D C
I even got a tattoo of your name across the chest
Em C
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
D G D
Its like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
Em C
See everthing you say is real, and I respect you cause you tell it
D G D
My girlfriend's jealous, because I talk about you 24/7
Em C
But she don't know you like I know you slim, no one does
D G D
She don't know what it was like for people like us growin' up
Em C
You gotta call me man, I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose
D
Sincerely yours, Stan, p.s.
C
We should be together too
Em C D
My tea's gone cold, I'm wonderin' why

3RD VERSE
Em C D
Dear Mr I'm-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans
G D
This'll be the last package I ever send your a**
Em
It's been six months and still no words
C
I don't deserve it
D
I know you got my last two letters
G D
I wrote the addresses on them perfect
Em C
So this is my cassette I'm sending you, I hope you hear it
D G D
I'm in the car right now, I'm doin' 90 on the freeway
Em C D
Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, dare me to drive?
C
You know that song by Phil Collins, In the Air of the Night
Em C
About that guy who could've saved that other guy from drowning
D G D
But didn't, but Phil saw it all, then at a show he found him
Em C
That's kinda how this is, you could've rescued me from drowning
D G D
Now it's too late, I'm on a 1,000 downers now, I'm drowsy
Em C
And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
D G D
I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off my wall
Em C D
I love you Slim, we could've been together, think about it
C Em
You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it
C
And when you dream, I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it
D G D Em
I hope your conscience eats at you and you can't breathe without me
C
See Slim, shut up b****, I'm trying to talk
D G D
Hey Slim, that's my girlfriend screamin' in the trunk
Em C
But I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain't like you
D G D Em
Cause if she suffocates, she'll suffer more, then she'll die too
C D
Well, gotta go, I'm almost under the bridge now
C
Oh s***, I forgot, how am I supposed to send this s*** out?

4TH VERSE
Em C
Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner, but I've just been busy
D G D
You say your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she?
Em C
Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that
D
And here's an autograph for your brother
G D Em
I wrote it on this Starter cap
C
I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show, I must've missed you
D G D Em
Don't think I did that s*** intentionally just to dis you
C D
But what's that s*** you said about you like to cut your wrists too?
D
I say that s*** just clownin' dog
Em
C'mon, how f***ed up is you?
C
You got some issues, Stan, I think you need some counseling
D G D Em
To keep your a** from bouncin' off the walls when you get down some
C
And what's this s*** about us meant to be together?
D G D Em
That type of s*** will make me not want us to meet each other
C
I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
D G
Or maybe you just need to treat her better
D Em C
I hope you get to read this letter, I hope it reaches you in time
D C
Before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin just fine
Em C
If you relax a little, I'm glad that I inspire you, but Stan
D G D Em
Why are you so mad? Try to understand, that I do want you as a fan
C
I just don't want you to do some crazy s***
D G D Em
I seen this one s*** on the news a couple of weeks ago that made me sick
C
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
D G D
And had his girlfriend in his trunk and she was pregnant with his kid
Em C
And in the car they found a tape, didn't say who it was to
D C Em
Come to think about it, his name was, it was you...
Em

To go back to a place much simpler than this
F#m
Cause after all the partyin� and smashin� and crashin�
D A
And all the glitz and the glam and the fashion
F#m
And all the pandemonium and all the madness
D A
There comes a time where you fade to the blackness
F#m
And when you�re staring at that phone in your lap
D A
And you hoping but them people never call you back
F#m
But that�s just how the story unfolds
D A
You get another hand soon after you fold
F#m
And when your plans unravel

And they sayin� what a jewish saw

If you had one chance
F#m
So airplane airplane sorry I�m late

D A
And I�ll be right back at it by the end of the night
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 2- BOB
F#m
Somebody take me back to the days
D A
Before this was a job, before I got paid
F#m
Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank
D A
Yeah back when I was tryin� to get a tip at subway
F#m
And back when I was rappin� for the hell of it
D A
But now a days we rappin� to stay relevant
I�m guessin that if we can
F#m
make some wishes outta airplanes
D A
Then maybe yo maybe I�ll go back to the days
F#m
Before the politics that we call the rap game
D A
And back when ain�t nobody listened to my mix tape
F#m
And back before I tried to cover up my slang
D A
But this is for Decatur, what�s up Bobby Ray
F#m
So can I get a wish to end the politics
D A
And get back to the music that started this shit
F#m
So here I stand and then again I say

I�m hopin� we can make some wishes outta airplanes

Maybe we're bent and broken

It's not the way that you say it when you do those things to me,
Dm C/E F C/E G7 C
It's more the way you really mean it when you tell me what will be.

I don't wanna be left

In this war tonight
C
Am I alone in this fight?
G
Is anybody out there?
Am F
Don't wanna be left left in this world behind
C G
Say you'll run to my side
[K'naan]
C
Something 'bout mary
Never won a pageant

Never looked like cameron
C
Diaz was her last name
Always been abandoned
G
Keep your head up
Baby girl this is your anthem
Am
There goes hannah
Showin' off her banner
F
Rocking that crown
Make them boys go bananas
C
When you're insecure about yourself
It's a fact
G
You can point a finger
But there's three pointing back
[Pre-chorus]
C
I can see her crying out, yeah
F
Is there anybody out there?
C
She's really counting on your love
G
Still struggling uphill
But you act like you don't care
Am
Right now she could really use a shoulder
F
Hanging onto the edge til it's over
C
She's crying for your love tonight
G
Loneliest heart to survive, she said
[Chorus]
C
I don't wanna be left
F
In this war tonight

[K'naan]
C
His name was adam
When his mom had him
F
Dad was a phantom never took a look at him
C
Grew up mad and antisocial
G
Hated outdoors, always in playing madden
Am
Adam was lonely
Drugs were the only
F
Way out of his own life
C
Now he's slowly losing his fire
Close to retire
G
With one last hope he puts his arms up higher
[Pre-chorus]
C
I can see him crying out, yeah
F
Is there anybody out there?
C
he's really counting on your love
G
Still struggling uphill
But you act like you don't care
Am
Right now he could really use a shoulder
F
Hanging onto the edge til it's over
C
he's crying for your love tonight
G
Loneliest heart to survive, he said
[Chorus]

In this war tonight

Say you'll run to my side
Is anybody out there?
[Bridge]
C F
If you feel the way I feel
C
Like you've been talking to yourself
G
Well this one's for everyone who's felt invisible
Am F
Lonely in a crowded room
C
Searching for someone like you
G C F
Can't do it all alone (no one can baby)

Can't do it all alone (no one should baby)
Am F
Is anybody out there?
C
Is anybody out there?
