Baby please, please, please believe me
I don't want you to go, I'm feeling you way more than you know
Cause you, you, you intrigue me
Something I gotta say, without pushing you away
So how do I express, my life is such a mess
If only you knew, if only I could confess
to you, you stole my heart, so why is this so hard
You caught me off-guard, my love is who you are, baby you still are
Tell me why when I tell you how I feel inside,
I feel like I'm doing something wrong
Maybe it's cause of where you are, so near but yet so very far
So come back to where you belong
We've all made mistakes but live and learn just take
Your turn baby return to me
Wasting time with you is all that I want to
I'm dropping all these clues, why can't you see?
That you belong with me
Splashing right through the sea of love
End of story
I, I, I, I wish you would
Think of what you've done is this what you really want
Cause she she she she is no good, not good enough for you
Look at what she's already put you through
Tell me what love really is does it even exist
After the months we've missed, you're still first on my list
I know that this could work, I know we both deserve
I love you more than her, our love is for ever, baby forever
I know you say you need a break so here I will patiently wait
till the day that you come home
Cause I can see us happily, I'll give you all the time you need
I'll give you anything you want
We are both in love so much sometimes it hurts,
I know you feel the way I do
So I will give you time baby, I will let this ride
Cause soon I know you'll realize
That you belong with me
Splashing right through the sea of love
End of story

So I cross my heart, and I hope to die, that i'll only stay with you one more night
And I know i've said it a million times
But i'll only stay with you one more night
Trying to tell you no, but my body keeps on telling you yes
Trying to tell you stop, but your lipstick got me so out of breath
I'd be waking up, in the morning probably hating myself
And i'd be waking up, feeling sastified but guilty as hell
But baby there you go again, there you go again making me love you

Verse
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination /
I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man /
For whatever that means
Pre-chorus
And so I cry sometimes When I'm lying in bed just to get it all out /
What's in my head And I, I am feeling a little peculiar /
And so I wake in the morning And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high /
And I scream from the top of my lungs "What's going on?"
Chorus
And I say, "Hey-ey-ey-ey" “Hey-ey-ey I said, "Hey, what's going on?"
Verse
And I try,
oh my God do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray,
oh my God do I pray
I pray every single day For a revolution

Devil Don't Wear Prada
Chorus: Am F7 | Am F7 | C7 B7 | Ab7 2X G7
The devil don't wear prada, she wears Dolce and Gabana
And she is twice as sexy on that second glance
Her touch is Euphoric, a mirage you can't ignore it
But you know you need to put her in the past
Verse: Am | Em | Am | Em | F7 | E7 (2nd time: E7 C#7#9)
She will seclude you in her chamber of love
She will reserve you from the dangers of love
From the cold, cold hearted world outside
But don't mistake this for a home
Soon you'll be left there all alone
and no one will even hear your cry
Chorus
Verse 2: Am | Em | Am | Em | F7 | E7 (2nd time: E7 C#7#9)
Materialistic type of , she wears her stilletos
She buys her Jordans just for kicks, on the week of release
She can't even tell you what minumum wage is
She thinks that money grows on trees, she gets whatever she wants
Even her T-shirts read Armani, or Louis Vuiton
But don't be fooled by the lies she flaunts
Chorus
Bridge: E7 | Am 3X D7 | E7 | Am .. hold F7
Move on, she's coming after you
And if you don't, she's gonna find you, right where you are
So move on, she's seeking out the worst
And she'll pull you in if you don't pull out first
Chorus
Tag

you know you need to put her in the past

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?

To a place where blind men see

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.
Stranger
Verse 1-
Who is this stranger? I've never laid my eyes on him before
My hearts in danger a naive bull against a matador
Approaching forward, his eyes on me taking control
I'm falling faster, this trance on me I can't ignore
Pre Chorus 1-
But I find myself hanging on to every word,
oh every single word, enounced with hypnotizing charm
His words, they flow like i Have never heard
oh I have never heard, conversation spoken as an art
Chorus-
This man he looks at me and I can see myself tumbling and
When I'm with him I am stumbling as if he's maledicting me
Does he see me, me for me, and if that's true what does he see?
If only love was guaranteed, sometimes I think he's just manipulating me
Verse 2-
Well this phase that I'm in, seems like an everlasting love
But something in me knows, I'm too young, I'm not mature enough
His captive attraction, I'm confined, I'm forced to misjudge
I can't see clearly, one this I know is I must rise above
Pre Chorus 2-
Cause if I don't I know that I will fall too fast
I will fall too soon, too soon to fall to late to flee
He's got me leaning toward him to much askewed
oh twisted and askewed, possessing me with expertise
Chorus-
Outro-
Who gives a shit if I don't know right now? The here and now is fine
Cause he kisses me and I melt to my knees, cause he tells me he is mine
Who is this stranger? my heart's in danger,
I'm falling faster
Who is this stranger? my heart's in danger,
I'm falling, falling, falling, falling, faster...
New York
Verse 1-
New York City makes dreams come true
What a perfect place for my musical debut
I hear the city never sleeps it just keeps rolling on through
So on to Gotham City on a super jet plane I flew
Verse 2
Anticipation and uncertainty, try to get the best of me
This challenge I'm about to face is laced with millions just like me
Who travel from the ends of end to get to where I want to be
Putting all they've got onto one hot shot to prove themselves relentlessly
Pre-chorus-
Rewind, cause I can't focus on these trivial things
Gotta keep my mind in motion, take whatever it brings
Chorus-
Here I am in NYC, the capitol of the world
Far from my hometown Houston, far for this Texas girl
Here I am in Empire City
I'm on top of the world
New York, New York
New York
Verse 3-
Sure ain't pleasant Texas, no friendly passer-bys
Just stressed out suits stressing 'bout their push and go lives
No driving slow on Sunday Mornings or watching clouds go by
Just busy streets with crazy cabbies fighting over traffic lights
Verse 4-
You'd think a Texas Tornado was on a path of destruction
The way the public scurries home after the daily grind function
Some ease the tension with a PBR, the cheapest they make
Some drop mad cash on a bottle now that's extravagant taste

Verse 1-
Bm G D
Feeling my way through the darkness
Bm G D
Guided by a beating heart
I can't tell where the journey will end
But I know where it starts
They tell me I'm too young to understand,
They say I'm caught up in a dream
Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
Well that's fine by me

Verse 2-
I tried carrying the weight of the world
But I only have two hands
Hope I get the chance to travel the world
But I don't have any plans
I wish that I could stay forever this young
Not afraid to close my eyes
Life's a game made for everyone
And love is the prize
Chorus-
So wake me up when it's all over

All this time I was finding myself, And I
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost

But there's something on my mind

You see, I haven't been the same

We said we needed space
But all we found was an empty place
And the only thing I learned
Is that I need you desperately

Where do broken hearts go

Can they find their way home

Of a love that's waiting there

And if somebody loves you

Won't they always love you
G D
I look in your eyes

And I know that you still care, for me
[Verse]
I've been around enough to know
That dreams don't turn to gold
And that there is no easy way
No you just can't run away
And what we have is so much more

And no matter how I try
You're always on my mind

So here I am

Someone I've needed so long
For once, unafraid, I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Would make my dreams come true
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once, I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once, I can say, this is mine, you can't take it
As long as I know I have love, I can make it
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me

C Em
Here I am playing with those
Am Em
Memories again
A7
And just when I thought time has
Dm
Set me free
G
Those thoughts of you keep taunting me
C Em Am Em
Holding you, a feeling I never outgrew
A7 Dm
Though each and every part of me has tried
G
Only you can fill that space inside
Dm G
So there's no sense pretending
Dm G
My heart it's not mending
Reff -
C Em F G
Just when I though I was over you
C Am F
Just when I though I could stand
G
On my own
C Em
Oh baby those memories come
F
Crashing through
E Am Dm Em F C G Dm Em Em F
And I just can't goon without you
G Em Am Em
On my own I've tried to make the best of it alone
A7
I've done everything I can to ease
Dm
The Pain

But only you can stop the rain
Dm G
I just can't live without you

I miss everything about you
Back to - Reff

Go on without

It's just no good without you

Without you, without you, without you

Oh baby those memories come

Crashing through
E Am Dm Em F C
And I just can't go on without you
[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]

Intro
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts.
Em C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I love the way you lie,
(slide on D string)
I love the way you lie
Verse
Em
I can't tell you what it really is, I can only tell you what it feels like
C
And right now, there's a steel knife in my windpipe
G
I can't breathe, but I still fight while I can fight
Dadd11
As long as the wrong feels right, it's like I'm in flight
Em
High off of love, drunk from my hate,
C
it's like I'm huffin' paint and I love it, the more I suffer, I suffocate
G
And right before I'm about to drown, she resuscitates
Dadd11
Me, she fuckin' hates me, and I love it, Wait!
Em
Where you going? I'm leaving you. No you ain't,
C G
Come back. We're running right back, here we go again, it's so insane
Cuz when it's going good, it's going great
Dadd11
I'm Superman with the wind at his back, she's Lois Lane
Em
But when and it's bad, it's awful, I feel so ashamed,
C
I snap Who's that dude?, I don't even know his name
G
I laid hands on her, I'll never stoop so low again
Dadd11 (abrupt stop)
I guess I don't know my own strength
Chorus
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts.
Em C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I love the way you lie,
Em C
I love the way you lie
G Dadd11 (abrupt stop)
I love the way you lie
Verse 2
Em
You ever love somebody so much, you can barely breathe when you with 'em?
C
You meet, and neither one of you even know it hit 'em
G
Got that warm fuzzy feeling, yeah them chills used to get 'em
Dadd11
Now you gettin' fuckin' sick of lookin' at 'em
Em
You swore you'd never hit 'em, never do nothin' to hurt 'em
C
Now you're in each other's face spewing venom in your words when you spit 'em
G
You push, pull each other's hair, scratch, claw, bit 'em
Dadd11
Throw 'em down, pin 'em, so lost in the moments when you're in 'em
Em
It's the face that's the culprit, controls you both
C
So they say, you'd best to go your separate ways
G
Guess that they don't know ya cuz today, that was yesterday,
Dadd11
Yesterday is over and it's a different day,
Em
Sound like broken records playing over but you promised her,
C
next time you'd show restraint, you don't get another chance
G
Life is no nintendo game, but you lied again
Now you get to watch her leave out the window
Dadd11
Guess that's why they call it window pane
Chorus
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts.
Em C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I love the way you lie,
Em C
I love the way you lie
G Dadd11 (abrupt stop)
I love the way you lie
Verse 3
Em
Now I know we said things, did things that we didn't mean
C
And we fall back into the same patterns, same routine
G
But your temper's just as bad as mine is; you're the same as me
Dadd11
When it comes to love you're just as blinded
Em
Baby please come back, it wasn't you. Baby it was me,
C
Maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems
G
Maybe that's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano
Dadd11
All I know is I love you too much, to walk away though
Em
Come inside, pick up your bags off the sidewalk
C
Don't you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk?
G
Told you this is my fault, look me in the eyeball
Dadd11
Next time I'm pissed, I'll aim my fist at the drywall
Em
Next time? There won't be no next time
C
I apologize, even though I know it's lies
G
I'm tired of the games, I just want her back. I know I'm a liar,
Dadd11 (abrupt stop)
If she ever tries to fuckin' leave again,
Ima tie her to the bed and set this house on fire
Just gonna
Chorus
Em C
Stand there and watch me burn,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts.
Em C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I love the way you lie,
Em C
I love the way you lie
G Dadd11 (abrupt stop)
I love the way you lie

Would you date me on the regular (tell me, would you?)
Em Bm
Well, baby I've been around the world

This ring here represents my heart
Bm Am
But there's just one thing I need from you (say I do)

Now, if I wrote you a love note
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)
[Chorus-]
Yeah, because
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

[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
(Love) Ain't another woman that can take your spot, my love
(Love) My love
(Love) My love
(Love) Ain't another woman that can take your spot, my love

C#m
It starts with one thing I don't know why
B
It doesn't even matter how hard you try

Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme

All I know, time is a valuable thing

Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings

Watch it count down to the end of the day

The clock ticks life away

It's so unreal, didn't look out below

Watch the time go right out the window

Trying to hold on, but didn't even know

Watch you go, I kept everything inside

And even though I tried, it all fell apart

What it meant to me will eventually be

A memory of a time when

Acting like I was part of your property

Remembering all the times you fought with me

I'm surprised it got so far

Things aren't the way they were before
A
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore

Not that you knew me back then but it all comes back to me

In the end you kept everything inside

And even though I tried, it all fell apart

What it meant to me will eventually be

A memory of a time when

Chorus
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

I hope the following will assist!
OK. The numbers on the strings should relate to which finger to use -
't' is thumb, 1,2,3 are 1st, 2nd, 3rd fingers respectively!
So the D chord (xx0232) picked like this
E-------------------|
B-----2-------2-----|
G---1---1---1---1---|
D-t-------t---------|t...... etc
A-------------------|
E-------------------|
The A chord (x02220) like this! nb finger '3' can be left out or played simultaneously with '2'!
E---------------------------|
B-------3-----------3-------|
G-----2---2-------2---2-----|
D---1-------1---1-------1---|
A-t-----------t-------------|t....etc
E---------------------------|

END ON G
Chorus: I Am A sinner Who's probably gonna sin again
Lord forgive me Lord forgive me Things I don't understand
Sometimes I need to be alone don't kill my vibe don't kill my vibe
I can feel your energy from two planets away
I got my drink I got my music I will share it but today I'm yelling
don't kill my vibe don't kill my vibe
Verse 1: Look inside my soul and you can find gold and maybe get rich
Look inside of your soul and you can find out it never exist
I can feel the changes / I can feel a new life/ I always knew life can be dangerous
I can say that I like a challenge and you tell me it's painless / You don't know what pain is
How can I paint this picture / When the color blind is hanging with ya
Fell on my face and I woke with a scar / Another mistake living deep in my heart
Buried on top of my sleeve in a flick /I can admit that it did look like yours
Why you resent every making of this /Tell me your purpose is petty again
But even a small lighter can burn a bridge .Even a small lighter can burn a bridge
I can feel the changes / I can feel the new people around me just want to be famous
You can see that my city found me then put me on stages
To me that's amazing / To you that's a quick check, with all disrespect let me say this
Verse 2: I'm trying to keep it alive and not compromise the feeling we love
You trying to keep it deprived and only co-sign what radio does And I'm looking right past ya
We live in a world, we live in a world on two different axles
You live in a world, you living behind the mirror
I know what you scared of, the feeling of feeling emotions inferior
This shit is vital, I know you had to / This shit is vital,
I know you had to Die in a pitiful vain, tell me a watch and a chain
Is way more believable, give me a feasible gain Rather a seasonal name,
I'll let the people know this is something you can blame On yourself you can remain, stuck in a box
Ima break out and then hide every lock / Ima break out and then hide every lock
I can feel the changes / I can feel the new people around me just want to be famous
You can see that my city found me then put me on stages To me that's amazing
To you that's a quick check, with all disrespect let me say this
Verse 3: You ain't heard a chorus like this in a long time
Don't you see that long line
And they waiting on Kendrick like the 1st and the 15th
3's in the air I can see you are - in sync
Hide your feelings, hide your feelings now what you better do
I'll take your girlfriend and put that pussy on a pedestal
don't kill my vibe . don't kill my vibe /Walk out the door and they scream it's alive
My new year's resolution is to stop all the pollution
Talk too motherfucking much, I got my drink I got my music I say - don't kill my vibe
don't kill my vibe / don't kill my vibe / don't kill my vibe

Like the legend of the phoenix, huh
All ends with beginnings
What keeps the planet spinning, ah
The force from the beginning, hm, look
We've come too far
To give up who we are
So let's raise the bar
And our cups to the stars
She's up all night 'til the sun
I'm up all night to get some
She's up all night for good fun
I'm up all night to get lucky
We're up all night 'til the sun
We're up all night to get some
We're up all night for good fun
We're up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to get lucky
The present has no reason
Your gift keeps on giving
What is this I'm feeling?
If you wanna leave I'm with it, ah
We've come too far
To give up who we are
So let's raise the bar
And our cups to the stars
She's up all night 'til the sun
I'm up all night to get some
She's up all night for good fun
I'm up all night to get lucky
We're up all night 'til the sun
We're up all night to get some
We're up all night for good fun
We're up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to get lucky

And everyday I see the news
All the problems we could solve
And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
?Singing straight to cold?
I don't really like my flow, no, so

Got no reason
Got no shame
Got no family
I can blame
Just don't let me disappear

Verse 1: Am F C G (Original Key Bm G D A )
I took an arrow to the heart /
I never kissed a mouth that tastes like yours
Strawberries and somethin' more /
Ooh yeah, I want it all
Lipstick on my guitar (ooh) /
Fill up the engine, we can drive real far
Go dancin' underneath the stars /
Ooh yeah, I want it allMm, you got me feelin' like
Pre:
I wanna be that guy, I wanna kiss your eyes /
I wanna drink that smile, I wanna feel like I'm /
Like my soul's on fire, I wanna stay up all day and all night /
Yeah, you got me singin' like
Chorus:
Ooh, I love it when you do it like that
And when you're close up, give me the shivers
Oh baby, you wanna dance 'til the sunlight cracks
And when they say the party's over, then we'll bring it right back
Verse 2:
Into the car / On the backseat in the moonlit dark
Wrap me up between your legs and arms /
Ooh, I can't get enough
You know you could tear me apart (ooh) /
Put me back together and take my heart
I never thought that I could love this hard /
Ooh, I can't get enough
Mm, you got me feeling like
Pre:
Chorus:
Bridge:
Baby, you burn so hot
You make me shiver with the fire you got
This thing we started, I don't want it to stop
You know you make me shiver-er-er
Chorus: Em Am D G C Am Bm Em
If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own
Verse 1:
Can't live without me, you wanna, but you can't, no, no, no
Think it's funny, but honey, can't run this show on your own
I can feel my body shake, there's only so much I can take
I'll show you how a real queen behaves, oh
Pre Chorus:
No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But if I had one, it'd be bigger than yours
Chorus:
Verse 2:
Disobey me, then baby, it's off with your head
Gonna change it and make it a world you won't forget, oh-oh, oh
No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Pre Chorus:
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But I'm stronger than I ever was before
Chorus:
Bridge
In chess, the king can move one space at a time
But queens are free to go wherever they like
You get too close, you'll get a royalty high
So breathe it in to feel the love
Em
Strength and guidance
