I've got the power
I've got the power
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
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic
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 gettin kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's gettin kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's gettin kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's gettin kinda hectic
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

Verse Chords
I know you're going but I can't believe
It's the way that you're leaving
It's like we never knew each other at all
it may be my fault.
I gave you too many reasons being alone when I didn't want to.
I thought you'd always be there
I almost believed you.
All this time I still remember everything you said
There's so much you promised
how could I ever forget?
Listen- you know I love you but I just can't take this
. . .

I threw a wish in the well,

Don't ask me, I'll never tell

I looked to you as it fell,

and now you're in my way

I trade my soul for a wish,
Em
pennies and dimes for a kiss
C
I wasn't looking for this,

but now you're in my way

Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
C
Hot night, wind was blowin'

Where you think you're going, baby?

Hey, I just met you,

[Verse 2]
You took your time with the call,
I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all,
but still, you're in my way
I beg, and borrow and steal
Have foresight and it's real
I didn't know I would feel it,
but it's in my way
Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot not, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?
Hey, I just met you,
and this is crazy,
but here's my number,
so call me, maybe?
It's hard to look right,

Hey, I just met you,
and this is crazy,
but here's my number,
so call me, maybe?
And all the other boys,

but here's my number,
so call me, maybe?
Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
I missed you so bad
I missed you so, so bad
Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
And you should know that
I missed you so, so bad
It's hard to look right,
at you baaaabeh,

Jade Chorus:
This is why we do this, We love good music,
Music fills my room when I'm alone,
Doesn't matter where I am I'm always home,
With a good song
Adrian 1:Now everybody got a reason a thesis that they believe in
here's a couple of mine as I be dropping a rhyme,
See I'm a lyricist I love to pay attention to words man
I'm just trying to do my thing in different parts of the world hey yo,
Sometimes we need distractions from all of the bad that happens,
Sometimes we need to relax this life is such a challenge,
And sometimes, We just need compassion,
But yo without good music then it's hard to have it
Chorus:
Adrian 2:So yo enjoy your moment as you work on what's important
and I'm speaking from experience music helps me focus,
It feels amazing as I listen and I dance to it,
When I'm under pressure my songs they help me handle it and yo,
Whether it's the beat or the lyrics you feel the energy
and maybe you'll remember me one day when you play this melody,
Yeah good music is timeless which is why
it doesn't matter anytime you rewind it yo
Verse 3:When it comes to music I'm a savage for it all
I don't panic anymore when I'm on the mic as I perform,
Thanks to practice I'm a rappin' fanatic,
And yo I ain't ashamed I'll admit I'm an addict,
Gimme that rock and roll or gimme pop, or maybe give me Hip Hop,
Or gimme Spanish music where the party don't stop,
Genre doesn't matter, you just make it your own
with a good song you know that you'll always be home
So once again this is why we do it , If you couldn't tell by now
All Singers: We love good music And instead of having so much confusion
my solution's making music yo to me it's therapeutic
With the right state of mind I'm taking on any challenge
As I stay on the grind But with good music I'm balanced,
And like I said it doesn't matter, you just make it your own
and with a good song you know that you'll always be home
Jade Verse 1
Gimme the mic gimme the booth, / Feeling the vibe feeling the tune
Matter of time you're gonna find, / Power inside power in you, get in the groove
This is why we do this, We love good music, /
And I get in my zone when my favorite song comes on
Jade Verse 2
I've been at this for a minute / It's been a really good run /
My fingers doing what they want to do / I'm just having fun /
I'm doing this for me and it's cool if people get to see /
I got 100 in the vault and if I never take off
I can still rest easy knowing this is why we do this
C
Crashed on the floor when I moved in
This little bungalow with some strange new friends
C/B
(Stay) up too late, and I'm too thin
We promise each other it's 'til the end

'Cause when she dances she goes and goes

Maybe I'm more clever than a girl like her

Verse 3-

Maybe I'm a little bit over my head
I come undone at the things he said
C/B
(And) he's so funny in his bright red shirt
We were all in love, and we all got hurt
Am
(I) sneak into his car's cracked leather seat
The smell of gasoline in the summer heat,
G
(Boy, we're) going way too fast
It's all too sweet to last...

We gave each other up so easily

(These) silly little wounds will never mend
I feel so far from where I've been...

And lately I've been sleeping with a ghost!

When you said that,

Lets cut through the shit then let's get to what we're doing here

Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand

Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can

Since you been gone

You were such a habit to call
I aint myself at all had to tell myself naw
Shes better with some fella with a regular job
I didnt wanna get her involved
By dinner Mr. Benjamin was sitting in awe
Hopped into my car drove far
Fars too close and I remember
My memories no sharp
Butter knife, what a life, anyway
Im building yall a clock, stop
What am I Hemingway?
She had the kind of body
That would probably intimidate
Any of em that were un-southern
Not me cousin
If models are made for modeling
Thick girls are made for cuddlin
Switch worlds and we can huddle then
Who needs another friend
I need to hold your hand
Youd need no other man
we d flee to other lands
Grey matter
Blue used to be my favorite color
Now I ain't got no choice
Blue matter
Youre good at being bad

For heavens sakes go to hell

Youre good at being bad
Youre bad at being good
For heavens sakes go to hell

Make her swab the motherfucking wood
Make her walk the motherfucking plank
Make her rob a motherfucking bank
With no mask on and a rusty revolver

Singer Songwriter
You're not the first boy to offer the world
I think you're cool but I'm not that kind of girl
If I wanted to sleep my way to the top
I'd a done been there
I'm not just another girl singer songwriter
Playing in a cafe waiting for her big break, no
Any other girl would be lucky you found her
Fall over in love, but I cannot because of who I am
I'm a good girl, at least I'm trying to be
Until some dumb fool brings out the in me
Cause if I wanted to sleep my way to the top
Believe me I'd a done been there
Chorus
You think as a girl I'm used to getting everything that I want
But I worked very hard for every single thing that I'd got
I studied and that's why I'm smart
I pour my love into my art
And no one can take that part of who I am
Chorus
Am F
The best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting
C G
It couldn't be that we have been this way before
Am F
I know you don't think that I am trying
C G
I know you're wearing thin down to the cor
F G
But hold your breath

Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you

In Case You Don't
Verse 1-
Woke up early this morning for no particular reason
I glanced over to your side, you're captivating when your dreaming
Seeing that smile on your face puts a smile on my face
You're so addicting that sometimes I catch myself not breathing
I'd hate to disturb you but damn you make me want you make me want you so bad
I can't live without you, it's imperative you always know that
Can't control myself around you, baby I'm so glad that I found you
Here with you, there's no other place I'd rather be at
Pre Chorus-
And I know sometime I may not always treat you right
But now, I am watching you peaceful and I vow with all my life
Tonight, I'm gonna make it right
Chorus-
Cause baby you're the one that I've been searching all my life for
How could I ever ask for more
And when the lights go down it's you that I am after
I know we both know, but in case you don't
Verse 2-
Baby here I am to show you all the things I've never shown you
I'll be here till the end, your lover and your best friend
I will be here when you need me, baby I'll be here completely
You've got me hooked on your love and every word that you have said
So here's to you my love, the only one I want in my life
You are the air I breathe the single brightest star in my sky
If you were to hesitate, I wouldn't care how long the wait
I will be standing here until the day that I can call you all mine
Pre Chorus-
Solo-
Woke up early this morning for no particular reason

Working for her man. She brings home hre pay
For love, for love.

She says we've got to hold on to what we've got.

It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not.

We've got each other and that's a lot, for love.

G C D7sus4
Wooo, livin' on a prayer
Tommy's got his six string in hock,
now he's holding in, what he used to make it talk
So though, it's so though.
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night, Tommy whispers-
Baby it's O.K., some day.
We've got to hold on ....

Woooo, we're halfway there, wooo, livin' on a prayer.

Intro- / G - F C / /
Listen, boy, I don't want to see you let
A good thing slip away
You know I don't like watching anybody make
The same mistakes I made
She's a real nice girl and she's always there for you
But a nice girl wouldn't tell you what you should do
/ G - / F C / - / Bm Bb Am - / Cm G Am AmC /
Oh, listen, boy, I'm sure that you think
You got it all under control
You don't want somebody telling you
The way to stay in someone's soul
You're a big boy now and you'll never let her go
But that's just the kind of thing she ought to know
... / Cm G Am GA /
{Refrain}
Tell her about it, tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason to accept that you're for real
Tell her about it, tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her, let her know how much she means
/ D - F#m - / Bm - Em EmA / -
Listen, boy, it's not automatically
A certain guarantee
To insure yourself you've got to provide
Communication constantly
When you love someone you're always insecure
And there's only one good way to reassure
{As Refrain}
Tell her about it, let her know how much you care
When she can't be with you tell her you wish you were there
Tell her about it everyday before you leave
Pay her some attention, give her something to believe
'Cause now and then she'll get to worrying
Just because you haven't spoken for so long
Though you may not have done anything
Will that be a consolation when she's gone
/ F Dm Eb - / Gm C D - / 1st / Gm C A - /
Listen, boy, it's good information
From a man who's made mistakes
Just a word or two that she gets from you
Could be the difference that it makes
She's a trusting soul, she's put her trust in you
But a girl like that won't tell you what you should do
{Refrain}
Tell her about it, tell her how you feel right now
Tell her about it, the girl don't want to wait too long
You got to tell her about it
Tell her now and you won't go wrong
You got to tell her about it before it gets too late
You got to tell her about it

Chords- Em G D A
Repeat throughout the song
Em G
All I care about is money and the city that I'm from
D A
I'ma sip until I feel it, I'ma smoke it till it's done
And I don't really give a f*ck, and my excuse is that I'm young
And I'm only getting older so somebody shoulda told ya
Em G
I'm on one
D A
Yeah, f*ck it, I'm on one
Yeah, I said I'm on one
F*ck it, I'm on one
A strong one
Two white cups and I got that drink
It could be purple, it could be pink
Depending on how you mix that sh*t
Money that we got, never get that sh*t
Cause I'm on one
F*ck it I'm on one
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
You know what I'm like, oh yes, oh yeah
Oh yes, Oh yeah
Oh yes, Oh yeah
You know what I'm sippin, I teach you how to mix it
But you're the only one, cause I don't trust these b*tches
I don't, I don't trust these b*tches
They might catch me slippin'
So you're the only one, cause I don't trust these b*tches
They might, they might catch me slippin' and put in something different
So you're the only one
Cause I don't trust these b*tches
I don't, I don't trust these b*tches
They might catch me slippin'
So you're the only one
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Oooo ooooo ooh
Oh yeh, oh yeh
Let's call up I'm drinkin, let's all get wasted
I'm drinkin', let's all get faded
Drizzy Drake, check me out
Coming live from the the muthaf*cking north side
Kick game, run game, run it real good
But never ever have my b*tches sittin' courtside
Same n*gga that you knew way back when
You actin' like it's somebody you don't know
Tell me how the f*ck we supposed to stay friends
When you got a bunch of feelings that you don't show
I can tell, I can tell, I can tell certain people don't like me no more
New sh*t don't excite me no more
Guess they don't really make 'em like me no more
Uh, you can look me in my eyes and see I ain't myself
Cause if ya what I created then I hate myself
But still, let them girls in,
And tell 'em all leave their cell phones on the table where we see 'em
I'm all day with it man, AM to the PM
N*ggas hatin', I just wish they would say it when I see em all
That's that sh*t that drives me crazy
And it's all that I've been gettin' lately
And it's probably why I'm scared to put the time in
Women wanna f*ck like they're me and I'm them
Looking for some things that I think I can find in you, in you
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Oooo ooooo oh
Oh yeh, oh yeh
Lets call up I'm drinkin', let's all get wasted
I'm drinkin', let's all get faded
Oh yeh, oh yeh
Call up on drinkin', let's call up

(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.

I was left to my own devices
Many days fell away with nothing to show
And the walls kept tumbling down In the city we love
Great clouds roll over the hills Bringing darkness from above
But if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
Nothing changed at all.
And if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
You've been here before?
(D) (A) (E)
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
(D) (A) (F#m) (E)
We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
In your pose as the dust settles around us
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
But if you close your eyes
(D) (A) (F#m) (E)
Does it almost feels like
Nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
You've been here before?
(D) (A) (F#m) (E)
How am I gonna be an optimist about this
If you close your eyes
Middle 8 is the same as verse
(D) (A) (F#m) (E)
Oh where do we begin, The rubble or our sins?
Oh where do we begin, The rubble or our sins?
Oh where do we begin, The rubble or our sins?
Oh where do we begin, The rubble or our sins?
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
But if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
Nothing changed at all,
And if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
You've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

G C Em D
If I were a boy
Even just for a day
Em C G D
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted and go
G C Em D
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
Em C G D
I'd kick it with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
etc
Because they'd stick up for me
Chorus-
If I were a boy
I think that I'd understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
cause I know how it hurts
when you lose the one you wanted
cause he's taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed!
verse 2-
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone that its broken
so they think
that I was sleeping alone
I'd put myself first
and make the rules as I go
cause I know that she'll be faithful
waiting for me to come home ( to come home)
Chorus
If I were a boy
I think that I could understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
when you loose the one you wanted
cause he's taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed!
It's a little too late for you to come back
Say its just a mistake
Think I forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
Chorus
But your just a boy
You don't understand (and you don't understand)
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you'll wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you taken her for granted
And everything that you had got destroyed
But your just a boy…

That's when I learned a lesson
A#
That it's all about your perception
Bb
Hey-are you a pauper or a superstar
C
So you act, so you feel, so you are

It ain't about the size of your car

It's about the size of the faith in your heart

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...

Throught Out Song. Its Simple.Just get the timing down and its all good.
[Verse 1-]
Bm
I might be too strung out on compliments
C#m
Overdosed on confidence
D
Started not to give a fuck and stop fearing the consequence
Bm
Drinking every night because we drink to my accomplishments
Faded way too long I'm floating in and out of consciousness
And they sayin' I'm back, I'd agree with that
I just take my time with all this shit, I still believe in that
I had someone tell me I fell off, ohh I needed that
And they wanna see me pick back up, well where'd I leave it at
I know I exaggerated things, now I got it like that
Tuck my napkin in my shirt, cause I'm just mobbin' like that
You know good and well that you don't want a problem like that
You gone make someone around me catch a body like that
No don't do it, please don't do it, cause one of us goes in
And we all go through it
So Drizzy got the money, so Drizzy gone pay it
Those my brothers
[Chorus-]
I ain't even gotta say it
That's just something they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah they know yeah
That the real is on the rise
Fuck them other guys
I even gave them a chance to decide
Now its something they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah I be yelling out money over everything, money on my mind.
Then she wanna ask when it got so empty
Tell her I apologize it happened over time
[Verse 2-]
She says they missed the old drake, girl don't tempt me
If they don't get it, they'll be over you
That new shit that you got is overdue
You better do what you suppose to do
I'm like why I gotta be all that but still I can't deny the fact that it's true
Listen to you expressing all them feelings
Soap opera rappers all these s sound like all my children
And that's who you thinking is 'bout to come and make a killing
I guess it really is just me, myself and all my millions.
You know the game even got it like that.
You gone hype me up and make me catch a body like that
Cause I live for this it isn't just a hobby like that.
When they get my shit and play it
[Chorus]
I ain't even gotta say it
That's just something they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah they know yeah
That the real is on the rise
Fuck them other guys
I even gave them a chance to decide
Now its something they know
They know, they know, they know
I be yelling out money over everything, money on my mind.
Tell em' I apologize it happened over time
Intro- G, Cadd9
Verse 1-
G Cadd9
We both lie silently still, in the dead of the night.
G Cadd9
Although we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside.
G Cadd9
Was it something I said, or something I did,
G Cadd9
did my words not come out right?
D C
Though I tried not to hurt you, though I tried, but I guess that's why they say
CHORUS
G Cadd9
Every rose has its thorn.
G Cadd9
Just like every night has its dawn.
G D C
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song.
G C
Every rose has its thorn.
[Bridge and solo - I just play G-Cadd9-G-Cadd9
Verse 2-
G Cadd9
Listen to our favorite song, playing on the radio.
G Cadd9
Well the DJ says loves a game of easy come and easy go.
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
But I wonder, does he know, has he ever felt like this.
D C
Well I know that you'd be here right now if I
coulda let you know somehow, I guess
[Chorus]
Em D C G
Though it's been awhile now, I can still feel so much pain.
Em D C G
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals, but the scar, that scar remains
G-Cadd9
Verse 3-
G Cadd9
I know I coulda saved our love that night if I'd known what to say.
G Cadd9
Instead of making love we both made our separate ways.
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
And now I hear you've found somebody new, and that I never meant that much to you.
D C
To hear that tears me up inside, and to see you cuts me like a knife, I guess
Boy!
Boy!

(A#) (F)
I've practiced this for hours, gone round and round
(GM)
And now I think that I've got it all down
[D#]
And as I say it louder I love how it sounds
(C)
Cause I'm not taking the easy way out
Not wrapping this in ribbons
(D#)
Shouldn't have to give a reason why...
[Chorus 1]
(D#)
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
(F)
I can't believe that I stayed till today
(GM)
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow

But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
[Verse 2]
(A#) (F)
It came out like a river once I let it out
(GM)
When I thought that I wouldn't know how

Felt so good to let go of it now
Not wrapping this in ribbons
(A#)
Shouldn't have to give a reason why
[Chorus 2]
(A#)
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
(F)
I can't believe that I stayed till today
(GM)
There's nothing here in this heart left to borrow

There's nothing here in this soul left to say
(A#)
Don't be surprised when we hate this tomorrow
(F)
God know we tried to find an easier way
(GM)
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
(D#) (F) (A#)
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
[Bridge]
(A#)
Our favorite place we used to go
(F)
The warm embrace that no one knows
(GM)
The loving look that's left your eyes
(D#) (F) (A#)
That's why this comes as no, as no surprise
[Verse 3]
(A#) (F)
If I could see the future and how this plays out
(GM)
I bet it's better than where we are now
(D#)
But after going through this, it's easier to see the reason why
[Chorus 1]
(D#)
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
(F)
I can't believe that I stayed till today
(GM)
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
(D#) (F) (A#)
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
[Bridge]

Our favorite place we used to go

The warm embrace that no one knows

Verse 1: We'll do it all, everything, on our own.
We don't need, anything, or anyone.
Half Chorus: If I lay here, if I just lay here
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
Verse 2: I don't quite know, how to say, how I feel
Those three words, I said too much, but not enough.
Full Chorus:
If I lay here, if I just lay here
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
Forget what we're told, before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.
Verse 3: Let's waste time, chasing cars, around our heads.
I need your grace, to remind me, to find my own.
Full Chorus:
Bridge: All that I am, all that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where, confused about how as well
just know that these things will never change for us at all.

Jade's Key: G Am Em C
Verse 1:
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag /
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin /
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep? /
Six feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing /
Do you know that there's still a chance for you /
Cause there's a spark in you?
Pre Chorus:
You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July
Chorus:
'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down
Verse 2:
You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow
Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know

D F#m A D F#m A
I need something "you proof," something stronger than I'm used to
D F#m A D F#m A
Yeah, I've been pouring 90 to 100 feelin' like nothing's gonna cut it, that's the hard truth
D F#m A D F#m A
Yeah, I need something "you proof," aw, I need something "you proof"
[Outro]
D F#m A x2
A
Johny's in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
D
Look out kid
It's somethin' you did
A
God knows when
But you're doin' it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend
E
The man in the coon-skip cap
In the big pen
A
Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten.
A
A
Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talkin' that the heat put
Plants in the bed but
The phone's tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the DA
D
Look out kid
Don't matter what you did
A
Walk on your tip toes
Don't try, 'No Doz'
Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
E
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
A
You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows.
A
A
Get sick, get well
Hang around an ink well
Ring bell, hard to tell
If anything is goin' to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write Braille
Get jailed, jump bail, Join the army, if you failed
D
Look out kid
You're gonna get hit
A
But users, cheaters
Six-time losers
Hang around the theaters
E
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin' for a new fool
A
Don't follow leaders
Watch the parkin' meters.
A
A
Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift
B
Look out kid
They keep it all hid
A
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
E
Don't wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
A
The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles.
