F C
As long as I'm here
Bb
As long as you love me
F C Bb
Give me that old school love right now
[Verse 1- Lupe Fiasco]
F C Bb
Give me that late 80s early 90s old school
Feeling like my second album, so cool
F C Bb
Chiraq summer looking so cruel
Look shorty in the eye, told me it was no rules
F C Bb
Went to speak but was like never mind
Let my mind just sneak back to a better time
F C Bb
When I was his age and if he's ever mine
Thinking he would only think back to this and never find
F C Bb
Better times to think back to when it comes
And he's older in the presence of somebody young
F C Bb
Telling him the same things that he told me
And he reacts the same way as that OG
F C Bb
But it's old school, it's like '03
And this old man is my old me
F C Bb
Takes a long time to happen so fast
To realize that your future is somebody else's past
Wassup...
[Hook x2]
(carry on the F C Bb Bb throughout the song)
[Verse 2- Lupe Fiasco]
Analog black vinyl spinning sounding so good
Top down, can't be a classic if it's no wood
If you don't know what, then you new school
Floor model is the foundation for your YouTubes
Model flows off of Fat Boys and Juice Crews
Melle Mel's, Ice-T's, and the 2 Cools
Add a Moe Dee and a Double L
Had to walk cause it's hard to run in those unbuckled shells
One microphone and a couple 12s
Six drum sounds and a couple bells
Is all you had to make a couple rails
And that's a track, and if you want it (eeeeeeeh)
You have to make it like that
Now what's one turtle to a couple snails?
Takes a long time to happen so fast
And realize your future is somebody else's past
Wassup...
[Hook x2]
[Verse 3- Lupe Fiasco]
Chiraq summer looking so cruel
How can I reel-to-reel when there's Pro Tool?
I can't dig it at all because there's no tube
Fire when you speak but ain't no warmth in your vocals
Might have been a better rhyme then just never mind
If it's better with time then think in line
That you're going to be your nicest 'round your midlife crisis
If your life like Christ live your midlife like it's... Christ-like
I ain't psychic
I know it's all a cycle and everybody bike it
And France is enormous you're Lance with endorsements
But you might need a hand to enhance your performance
Consider this a kilogram of encouragement
Teach you how to sneak it past the enforcement
And when you get it through in a manner so cool
Remember to give a little nod to the old school
Wassup...
[Bridge- Ed Sheeran]
F C Bb
Give me your old school love right now
F C Bb
I'm leaving it all up to you darling, giving you everything you want
F C Bb
And give me that old school love right now
F C Bb
You know that only you and me alone...

I was raised off of Rural Route 3,
A
out past where the blacktop ends,
D
We'd walk to church on Sunday mornin'
G
and race barefoot back to Johnson's fence
D
That's where I first saw Mary,
A
On that roadside pickin' blackberries,
Bm G A D
that summer I turned a corner in my soul down that red dirt road
[Chorus]
D
It's where I drank my first beer,
A
It's where I found Jesus,
Bm
Where I wrecked my first car
G
I tore it all to pieces,
D
I learned the path to heaven,
A
It's full of sinners and believers,
Bm
Learned that happiness on earth,
G
Ain't just for high achievers,
Em F#m
I've learned, I've come to know,
G A D
there's life at both ends of that red dirt road
[Verse]
D
Her daddy didn't like me much,
A
In my shackled up GTO,
D
I'd sneak out in the middle of the night,
G
Throw rocks at her bedroom window,

We'd turn out the headlights,
A
Drive by the moonlight,
Bm G
Talk about what the future might hold,
A D
Down that red dirt road,
[Chorus]

It's where I drank my first beer,

You will always be my boo

Why do we never get an answer, when we're knocking at the door
With a thousand million questions, about hate and death and war

In a world of persecution, that is burning in its greed

There lies a land I once lived in, and she's waiting there for me
But in the grey of the morning, my mind becomes confused
Between the dead and the sleeping, and the road that I must choose

Am
'Member when he told you he was 'bout the Benjamins
Gm
You act like you ain't hear him then gave him a little trim
Am
To begin, how you think you really gon' pretend
Gm
Like you wasn't down then you called him again
Am Gm
Plus when you give it up so easy you ain't even fooling him
Am
If you did it then, then you probably f*** again
Gm
Talking out your neck sayin' you're a Christian
A Muslim sleeping with the gin
Am
Now that was the sin that did Jezebel in
Gm
Who you gon' tell when the repercussions spin

Showing off your ass 'cause you're thinking it's a trend
Gm
Girlfriend, let me break it down for you again
Am
You know I only say it 'cause I'm truly genuine
Gm
Don't be a hardrock when you're really a gem

Now Lauryn is only human
Gm
Don't think I haven't been through the same predicament

Look at where you be in hair weaves like Europeans
Fake nails done by Koreans

Don't care who they offend popping yang like you got yen
Am
Let's not pretend, they wanna pack pistol by they waist men
Gm
Cristal by the case men, still in they mother's basement
Am
The pretty face, men claiming that they did a bid men
Gm
Need to take care of their three and four kids men
Am
They facing a court case when the child's support late
Gm
Money taking, heart breaking now you wonder why women hate men

The sneaky silent men the punk domestic violence men

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

(Somethin' that I can't say is one and the same)
Ever since you told me
(only room for two, I've been makin' less room for you)
Only God can hold me
(judge me, the only Man that help me is above me, holla)
I met so many men and
It's like they?re all the same
My appetite for lovin'
Is now my hunger pain
And when I'm feelin' sexy
Who's gonna comfort
My only problem is
Their insecurity
BRIDGE

(Tellin' all your friends) Yeah, yeah
(That your men don?t understand) My love
CHORUS
C Am G
Cause I'm real (The way you walk, the way you move, the way you talk)
Cause I'm real (The way you stare, the way you look, your style, your hair)
Cause I'm real (The way you smile, the way you smell, it drives me wild)
Cause I'm real And I can't go on without you
Girl, I've been thinkin' bout this relationship And I wanna know
is this as good as it gets Cause we've been through
the worst times and the best times
But it was our time, even if it?s part-time
My baby lookin' at me, smilin' at me, laughin' like we wasn't happy
But not knowin', ever growin' and we're gettin' married
Hard lovin' and straight thuggin'
, I ain't doin' this for nuttin'
hoppin', poppin, let's ride up in the Benz
Hair blowin' in the wind, sun glistenin' off my skin, hey
and I'm nasty, and you know me
But you still don't mess with your baby
BRIDGE
CHORUS 2
Now people lovin' me and hatin' me and treatin' me ungratefully
But not knowin' that they ain't makin' or breakin' me
My life I live it to the limit and I love it
Now I can breathe again, baby, I can breathe again
people screamin' what the deal with you and so and so
I tell them es my z but they don't hear me though
I live my life to the limit and I love it
Now I could breathe again, baby, I could breathe again
BRIDGE
CHORUS till end
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
We're up all night to get lucky

You're the meanest woman I've ever seen.
Am G F E7
I guess if you say so
Am G F E7
I'll have to pack my things and go.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no
more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.
Now baby, listen baby, don't-a treat me this-a way
For I'll be back on my feet some day.
Don't care if you do 'cause it's understood
you ain't got no money you just ain't no good.
Well, I guess if you say so
I'd have to pack my things and go. (That's right)
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no
more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.
(Repeat and fade)
Don't you come back no more.

Verse 1:
Oh, once upon a midnight eerie I woke with something in my head
I couldn't escape the memory Of a phone call and of what you said
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
I could not believe my eyes
When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend
Who needs to humor me and tell me lies,
yeah humor me and tell me lies
And I'll lie too and say I don't mind And as we seek so shall we find
And when you're feeling open I'll still be here
But not without a certain degree of fear
Well, what will be with you and me I still can see things hopefully
Chorus:
But you Why you wanna give me a run-around?
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up?
When all it does is slow me down
Verse 2:
Shake me and my confidence About a great many things
But I've been there I can see it cower
Like a nervous magician waiting in the wings
Of a bad play where the heroes are right
And nobody thinks or expects too much
And Hollywood's calling for the movie rights
Singing "Hey babe, let's keep in touch",
hey baby, let's keep in touch
But I want more than a touch I want you to reach me
And show me all the things no one else can see
So what you feel becomes mine as well
And soon if we're lucky we'd be unable to tell
What's yours and mine, the fishing's fine
And it doesn't have to rhyme, so don't you feed me a line
Chorus:
Verse 3:
Tra la la la la bombardier, this is the pilot speaking
I've got some news for you
It seems my ship still stands no matter what you drop
And there ain't a whole lot that you can do
Oh sure the banner may be torn and the wind's gotten colder
Perhaps I've grown a little cynical
But I know no matter what the waitress brings
I shall drink it and always be full, yeah I will drink it and always be full
Oh I like coffee and I like tea I'd like to be able to enter a final plea
I still got this dream that you just can't shake
I love you to the point you can no longer take
Well all right okay, so be that way
I hope and pray that there's something left to say
Chorus:

We'll move out of the shelter

Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs.

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

when the rest of me is down.
(repeat the same chords during the whole song)
You, you enchant me, even when you're not around.
If there are boundaries, I will try to knock them down.
I'm latching on babe, now I know what I have found.
I feel we're close enough.
I want to lock in your love.
I think we're close enough.
Could I lock in your love baby.
Now I've got you in my space.
I won't let go of you
Got you shackled in my embrace.
I'm latching onto you.
Now I've got you in my space.
I won't let go of you
Got you shackled in my embrace.
I'm latching onto you.
I'm so encaptured, got me wrapped up in your touch.
Feel so enamored, hold me tight within your clutch.
How do you do it, you got me losing every breath.
What did you give me, to make my heart beat out my chest.
I feel we're close enough.
I want to lock in your love.
I think we're close enough.
Could I lock in your love baby.
I feel we're close enough.
I want to lock in your love.
I think we're close enough.
Could I lock in your love baby.
Now I've got you in my space.
I won't let go of you
Got you shackled in my embrace.
I'm latching onto you.
Now I've got you in my space.
I won't let go of you
Got you shackled in my embrace.
I'm latching onto you.
I'm latching onto you.

Can't take my eyes off of you

Just a small town girl on a Saturday night
Em7 Em(maj7)
Looking for the fight of her life
C Cadd9
in the real time world no one sees her at all
Cadd9(13) B7sus4 B7
they all say she's crazy
Locking rhythm to the beat of her heart
Changing movement into light
She had danced into the danger zone
When the dancer becomes the dance
[Pre-Chorus]

It can cut you like a knife if the fight becomes the fire
B7(b13) B7
On the wire between will and what will be

She's a maniac, maniac on the floor

And she's dancing like she's never danced before

She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
C* Dsus4 A9
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
[Verse]
On the ice blue line of insanity
is a place most never see
It's a hard won place of mystery
touch it but can't hold it
You work all your life, for that moment in time
It could come or pass you by
it's a push shove world but there's always a chance
if the hunger stays the night
[Pre-Chorus]
There's a cold kinetic heat struggling stretching for the peak
Never stopping with her head against the wind
[Chorus]
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor (I sure know)
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor (I sure know)
And she's dancing like she's never danced before

And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor (I sure know)
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
...maniac, maniac on the floor (I sure know)
And she's dancing like she's never danced before...

Sit back down on the couch where we
Made love for the first time and you said to me

Verse 1
Em7
Hey once I was a boogie singer playin' in a rock and roll band

And everything around me got to stop to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly yes I did to disco down and check out the show

Verse 2
Em7
I tried to understand this I thought that they were out of their minds
How could I be so foolish how could I to not see I was the one behind
So still I kept on fighting well loosing every step of the way
I said I must go back there I got to go back and check to see if things still the same

Now first it wasn't easy changin' rock and roll and minds
And things were getting shaky I thought I'd have to leave it behind
But now its so much better it's so much better I'm funking out in every way
But I'll never lose that feelin' no I won't of how I learned my lesson that day

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

I've gotta take a little time, a little time to think things over.
I better read between the lines, in case I need it when I'm older.
Now, this mountain I must climb feels like the world upon my shoulders.
Through the clouds I see love shine. It keeps me warm as life grows colder.

hello to high and dry
convinced me to please you
made me think that i need this too
i'm trying to let you hear me as i am
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you asked for it

if all you have is leavin' im'a need a better reason to write you a love song today
promise me
you'll leave the light on
to help me see
(im guessing)- with daylight, my guide, gone (it sounds like something like that..)
'cause i believe there's a way
you can love me because i say
i wont write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one you see
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
is that why you wanted a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one you see
im not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
if your on your way
im not gonna write you to stay
if your heart is no where in it
