I wake up with blood-shot eyes
Struggled to memorize
The way it felt between your thighs
Pleasure that made you cry
Feels so good to be bad
Not worth the aftermath, after that
After that
Bm7-F7-Em
Try to get you back

I still don't have the reason

I wonder if it even makes a difference to try

So this is goodbye
DO VERSE
God damn my spinning head
Decisions that made my bed
Now I must lay in it
And deal with things I left unsaid
I want to dive into you
Forget what you're going through
I get behind, make your move
Forget about the truth

Verse 1 E EMaj7 E7 A Adim7 E F#7 F#m7b5 EMaj7
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
Verse 2
Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
So if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

Maybe we make a deal,

Maybe together we can get somewhere.
Cmaj7 G
Any place is better.

Starting from zero, got nothing to lose.
Cmaj7 G
Maybe we'll make something,
Em D
Me myself, I got nothing to prove.
Cmaj7 G
You got a fast car.
Em D
I got a plan to get us out of here-
Cmaj7 G
I been working at the convenience store,
Em D
Managed to save just a little bit of money.
Cmaj7 G
Won't have to drive too far
Em D
Just 'cross the border and into the city,
Cmaj7 G
You and I can both get jobs
Em D
And finally see what it means to be living.
[Pre-Chorus]
Cmaj7 G
You got a fast car.

Cmaj7 G
We gotta make a decision-

[Chorus]
Cmaj7 C G
So I remember when- we were driving, driving in your car,
C G
The speed so fast felt like I was drunk,
Em C

He live with the bottle, that's the way it is.
Cmaj7 G
He says his body's too old for working,
Em D
His body's too young to look like his.
Cmaj7 G Em D
My mama went off and left him, she wanted more from life than he could give,
Cmaj7 G
I said, Somebody's got to take care of him.
Em D
So I quit school and that's what I did.
Cmaj7 G
You got a fast car.
Em D
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves;
Cmaj7 G
you still ain't got a job
Em D
And I work in a market as a checkout girl.
Cmaj7 G
I know things will get better-
Em D
You'll find work and I'll get promoted,
Cmaj7 G
We'll move out of the shelter
Em D
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs.
[Pre-Chorus]
Cmaj7 G
You got a fast car.

But is it fast enough so we can fly away?
Cmaj7 G
We gotta make a decision-
Em D
Leave tonight or live and die this way.
Cmaj7 G Em D X4

Bm D A
My best friend gave me the best advice
Bm
He said each day's a gift and not a given right

Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind

That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day

and tomorrow was too late
A
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?

Would you live each moment like your last?

Leave old pictures in the past

Donate every dime you have?

If today was your last day

Against the grain should be a way of life
Bm
What's worth the prize is always worth the fight

Every second counts 'cause there's no second try

So live like you'll never live it twice

Don't take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day

Could you say goodbye to yesterday?

On a beautiful day
Daydream
I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day
[Lupe Fiasco]
As I spy from behind my giant robot's eyes
I keep him happy 'cause I might fall out if he cries
Scared of heights so I might pass out if he flies
Keep him on autopilot 'cause I can't drive
Room enough for one I tell my homies they can't ride
Unless they sittin on the shoulders but that's way too high
Let's try not to step on the children
The news cameras filmin
This walkin project buildin
Now there's hoes sellin hoes like right around the toes
And the crackheads beg at about the lower leg
There's crooked police that's stationed at the knees
And they do drive-bys like up and down the thighs
And there's a car chase goin on at the waist
Keep a vest on my chest
I'm sittin in my room as I'm lookin out the face
Somethin to write about
I still got some damage from fightin the whitehouse, just a
Daydream
I fell asleep beneath the flowers

I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours

Now come on everybody, let's make cocaine cool
We need a few more half naked women up in the pool
And hold this MAC-10 that's all covered in jewels
And can you please put your titties closer to the 22s?
And where's the champagne? We need champagne
Now look as hard as you can with this blunt in your hand
And now hold up your chain slow motion through the flames
Now cue the smoke machines and the simulated rain
But not too loud 'cause the baby's sleepin
I wonder if it knows what the world is keepin
Up both sleeves while he lay there dreamin
Me and my robot tip-toe 'round creepin
I had to turn my back on what got you paid
I couldn't see half the hood on me like Abu Ghraib
But I'd like to thank the streets that drove me crazy
And all the televisions out there that raised me, I was
Daydream
I fell asleep beneath the flowers

Want Not Need
I'm pretty good at being on my own
If I want it I go get it, if I want it I go get it
When I met you I thought you were gold
Wrapped inside of a deep dark soul
But now I get it, now I get it, now I get it
He's just trying to be a man
Trying to do the best he can
All he needs is one more chance
He'll make it good again
But if you really want a man
Quit being that backup plan
Let him learn to stand
You are something that I want not need
Meant as a compliment you could not see
It would be nice if you would call
And we can kick it like we did when we were kids
But now I get it, now I get it, now, I get it
Chorus
I'm very vocal with my feelings, we all know
You have a different way of dealing, let it show
Cause this ain't my way of healing, to let you go but
now I know, or maybe I don't
Maybe I never will
Maybe I won't
all I know
is this bridge could use a little more
than a couple of minor seven chords
but hey you ain't round to help me anymore

On a fuzzy tree.
My friends say I'm actin'
As queer as a bug
I'm in love!
I'm All Shook Up.

Uh uh huh. Mmm Yeah, Yeah.

On my own two feet
Who do you thank
When you have such luck?
I'm in love! I'm All Shook Up.
Uh uh huh. MM Yeah, yeah.

Please don't ask what's on my mind

I'm a little mixed up, but I'm feelin' fine

When I'm near that girl that I love the best

My heart beats so it scares me to death

What a chill I got
Her kisses are like
A volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say
That she's my buttercup
I'm in love! I'm All Shook Up.
Uh uh huh. Mmm Yeah, yeah.
My tongue gets tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There's only one cure for this soul of mine
That's to have the girl that I love so fine
(repeat 3rd verse)

That look in your eye, girl, when you catch me staring

Watching you watch the sun going down

To the left, To the left | x3
Everything you own in the box to the left
VERSE 1 [G D Am C]
In the closet that's my stuff - Yes
If I bought it please don't touch
And keep talking that mess, that's fine
But could you walk and talk at the same time
And It's my mine name that is on that Jag
So remove your bags let me call you a cab
V-SECTION
C
Standing in the front yard telling me
Em7
How I'm such a fool - Talking about
C Em D
How I'll never ever find a man like you
You got me twisted
CHORUS [G D Am C]
You must not know about me, you must not know about me
I could have another you in a minute
Matter fact he'll be here in a minute - baby
You must not know about me, you must not know about me
I can have another you by tomorrow
So don't you ever for a second get to thinking you're irreplaceable
VERSE 2 [G D Am C]
So go ahead and get gone
And call up on that chick and see if she is home
Oops, I bet ya thought that I didn't know
What did you think I was putting you out for?
Cause you was untrue
Rolling her around in the car that I bought you
Baby you dropped them keys hurry up before your taxi leaves
[V-sect]

Where pretty girls are, you'll know that I'm around

I hug 'em and I squeeze 'em, they don't even know my name
A G
They call me the Wanderer, yeah, Wanderer
D
I roam round and round and round and round
Verse 2-
There's Flo on my left and there's Mary on my right
And Janie is the girl that I'll be with tonight
And when she asks me which one I love the best
I tear open my shirt and show Rosie on my chest
'Cause I'm the Wanderer, yeah, Wanderer
I roam round and round and round and round
Bridge-

Well, I roam from town to town
Live life without a care
I'm as happy as a clown
B7 A7
With my 2 fists of iron but I'm goin' nowhere
Verse 3-
I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
I'm never in one place; I roam from town to town
And when I find myself a-fallin' for some girl
I hop right into that car of mine and drive around the world
'Cause I'm the Wanderer, yeah, Wanderer
I roam round and round and round and round

Where's my snare?

I have no snare in my headphones
Am E Am E
There you go, yeah

[Verse 1]
Am E
Have you ever been hated or discriminated against?
Am E
I have, I've been protested and demonstrated against
F E
Picket signs for my wicked rhymes, look at the times
Am
Sick is the mind of the motherfuckin' kid that's behind
Am E
All this commotion, emotions run deep as oceans, explodin'
Am E
Tempers flarin' from parents, just blow 'em off and keep goin'
F E
Not takin' nothin' from no one, give 'em hell long as I'm breathin'
Am
Keep kickin' ass in the morning and takin' names in the evenin'
Am E
Leave 'em with the taste as sour as vinegar in they mouth
Am E
See, they can trigger me, but they'll never figure me out
F E
Look at me now! I bet you're prob'ly sick of me now
Am E
Ain't you, Mama? I'ma make you look so ridiculous now!

I'm sorry, Mama

I never meant to hurt you

But tonight I'm cleanin' out my closet (One more time!)
E Am E
I said I'm sorry, Mama
Am E
I never meant to hurt you

I never meant to make you cry
E Am E
But tonight I'm cleanin' out my closet (Ha!)
[Verse 2]
Am
I got some skeletons in my closet
E
And I don't know if no one knows it
Am E
So before they throw me inside my coffin and close it
F E
I'ma expose it; I'll take you back to '73
Am
Before I ever had a multi-platinum-selling CD
Am E
I was a baby, maybe I was just a couple of months
Am E
My faggot father must've had his panties up in a bunch
F E
‘Cause he split, I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye
Am
No, I don't, on second thought, I just fuckin' wished he would die
Am E
I look at Hailie, and I couldn't picture leavin' her side
Am E
Even if I hated Kim, I'd grit my teeth and I'd try
F E
To make it work with her at least for Hailie's sake
I maybe made some mistakes
Am
But I'm only human, but I'm man enough to face 'em today
Am E
What I did was stupid, no doubt it was dumb
Am E
But the smartest shit I did was take the bullets out of that gun
F E
‘Cause I'da killed 'em, shit, I woulda shot Kim and him both
Am
It's my life, I'd like to welcome y'all to The Eminem Show
[Chorus]
Am E
I'm sorry, Mama
Am E
I never meant to hurt you
F
I never meant to make you cry
E Am
But tonight I'm cleanin' out my closet (One more time!)
E Am E
I said I'm sorry, Mama
Am E
I never meant to hurt you
F
I never meant to make you cry
E Am E
But tonight I'm cleanin' out my closet (uh)
[Verse 3]
Am E
Now, I would never diss my own mama just to get recognition
Am E
Take a second to listen 'fore you think this record is dissin'
F E
But put yourself in my position, just try to envision
Am
Witnessin' your mama poppin' prescription pills in the kitchen
Am E
in' that someone's always goin' through her purse and shit's missin'
Am E
Goin' through public housing systems victim of Münchausen's Syndrome
F E
My whole life I was made to believe I was sick when I wasn't
Am
'Til I grew up, now I blew up it makes you sick to your stomach, doesn't it?
Am E
Wasn't it the reason you made that CD for me, Ma?
Am E
So you could try to justify the way you treated me, Ma?
F E
But guess what, you're gettin' older now and it's cold when you're lonely
Am
And Nathan's growin' up so quick he's gonna know that you're phony
Am E
And Hailie's gettin' so big now, you should see her, she's beautiful
Am E
But you'll never see her-she won't even be at your funeral (ha-ha!)
F E
See, what hurts me the most is you won't admit you was wrong
Am
, do your song, keep tellin' yourself that you was a mom!
Am E
But how dare you try to take what you didn't help me to get?!
Am E
You selfish , I hope you fuckin' burn in hell for this shit!
F E
Remember when Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me?
Am
Well, guess what, I am dead-dead to you as can be!
[Chorus]
Am E
I'm sorry, Mama
Am E
I never meant to hurt you
F
I never meant to make you cry
E Am
But tonight I'm cleanin' out my closet (One more time!)

I said I'm sorry, Mama

[Verse 1]
G C G
On a warm summer's evenin' on a train bound for nowhere,
C G C D
I met up with the gambler; we were both too tired to sleep.
G C G
So we took turns a starin' out the window at the darkness
C G D G
'til boredom overtook us, and he began to speak.
[Verse 2]
G C G
He said, "Son, I've made a life out of readin' people's faces,
C G C D
and knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their eyes.
G C G
And if you don't mind my sayin', I can see you're out of aces.
C G D G
For a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice."
[Verse 3]
G C G
So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow.
C G C D
Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light.
G C G
And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression.
C G D G
Said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right.
[Chorus]
G C G
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,
C G C D
know when to walk away and know when to run.
G C G
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
C G D G
There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.
[Verse 4] (transpose +1 here if you want to play it correctly)
G C G
Ev'ry gambler knows that the secret to survivin'
C G C D
is knowin' what to throw away and knowing what to keep.
G C G
'Cause ev'ry hand's a winner and ev'ry hand's a loser,
C G D G
and the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep."
[Verse 5]
G C G
And when he'd finished speakin', he turned back towards the window,
C G C D
crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep.
G C G
And somewhere in the darkness the gambler, he broke even.
C G D G
But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep.
[Chorus]
G C G
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,
C G C D
know when to walk away and know when to run.
G C G
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
C G D G
There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Em F G
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
C Dm
People'd call, say, Beware doll,
Em F G
you're bound to fall You thought they were all kiddin' you
F G
You used to laugh about
F G
Everybody that was hangin' out
F Em Dm C
Now you don't talk so loud
F Em Dm C
Now you don't seem so proud
F C G
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.

C Dm Em
Aww, You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
F G
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
C Dm Em
Nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street

And now you're gonna have to get used to it
F G
You said you'd never compromise
F G
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize

As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes

And say do you want to make a deal?

C Dm Em
Aww, You never turned around to see the frowns
F G
On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you
C Dm
You never understood that it ain't no good
Em F G
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
F G
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
F G
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
F Em Dm C
Ain't it hard when you discover that
F Em Dm C
He really wasn't where it's at
F C G
After he took from you everything he could steal.

They're all drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
C Dm Em
Exchanging all precious gifts

But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
F G
You used to be so amused
F G
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
F Em Dm C
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
F Em Dm C
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
F C G
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.

Suggest little nice things I should do

And when I go home at night and lay my head down
Abmaj7 G
Last thing I think about was you and how...
CHORUS

Now what's bad is you're the one that hooked us up
Abmaj7 G
Knowing it should have been you
Cm7 Abmaj7
What's sad is that I love her but I'm falling for you
G
What should I do?
Cm7
Should I tell my baby bye-bye?
Abmaj7 G
Should I do exactly what I feel inside?
Cm7
Could I, I don't wanna go, don't need to stay
Abmaj7 G
But I really need to get it together
CHORUS
Abmaj7 Bb G7/B Cm7
At this point the situation's out of control

I never meant to hurt her but I gotta let her go
Abmaj7 Bb G7/B Cm7
And she may not understand it while all of this is going on

Now I will tell you what I've done for you
50 thousand tears I've cried
Screaming deceiving and bleeding for you
And you still won't hear me
Don't want your hand this time I'll save myself
Maybe I'll wake up for once
Not tormented daily defeated by you
Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom

I'm dying again

Drowning in you
A Bm-G-D
I'm falling forever

Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies
So I don't know what's real and what's not
Always confusing the thoughts in my head
So I can't trust myself anymore
G-A5 Em
I'm dying again
(Just repeat the above chords)
I'm going under
Drowning in you
I'm falling forever
I've got to break through
A G
So go on and scream
F# Bm
Scream at me I'm so far away
G
I won't be broken again
F#
I've got to breathe - I can't keep going under

and then Bm is the last chord

He rocks in the tree tops all day long
Hoppin' and a-boppin' and singing his song
All the little birdies on Jaybird Street
Love to hear the robin go tweet tweet tweet
Rockin' robin, rock rock
Rockin' robin'
Go rockin' robin
'Cause we're really gonna rock tonight
Rockin' robin, rock rock
Rockin' robin'
Go rockin' robin
'Cause we're really gonna rock tonight

She's got a pad down on Thirty-Fourth and Vine,
Dm E Am
sellin' little bottles of, Love Potion Number Nine.
#2.
Am Dm
I told her that I was a flop with chicks.
Am Dm
I've been this way since nineteen-fifty-six.
C Am
She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign..
Dm E Am
She said, 'What you need is, Love Potion Number Nine.'
CHORUS-
Dm
She bent down and turned around and gave me a wink.
B
She said I'm gonna mix it up right here in the sink.
Dm
It smelled like turpentine, it looked like India Ink..
E
I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drink.
#3.
Am Dm
I didn't know if it was day or night.
Am Dm
I started kissin' everything in sight.

He broke my little bottle of, Love Potion Number Nine.

Bm, C#m, D
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
G D Em7
A long, long time ago,
Am C Em D
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
G D Em7
And I know if I had my chance,
Am C Em C D
That I could make those people dance and maybe they'd be happy for a while
Em Am Em Am
But February made me shiver, with every paper I'd deliver
C G Am C D
Bad news on the doorstep, I couldn't take one more step
G D Em Am7 D
I can't remember if I cried when I read about his widowed bride
G D Em
Something touched me deep inside
C D7 G C G
The day the music died
CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
VERSE
G Am
Did you write the book of love
C Am Em D
And do you have faith in god above, if the bible tells you so?
G D Em
Do you believe in rock and roll
Am7 C Em A7 D
Can music save your mortal soul and can you teach me how to dance real slow?
Em D Em D
Well I know that you're in love with him 'cuz I saw you dancin' in the gym
C G A7 C D7
You both kicked off your shoes, man I dig those rhythm and blues
G D Em Am C
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck with a pink carnation and a pickup truck
G D Em C D7 G C G
But I knew I was out of luck the day the music died, I started singin'
CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie

Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
VERSE
G Am
Now for ten years we've been on our own,
C Am Em D
and moss grows fat on a rolling stone but that's not how it used to be
G D Em
When the jester sang for the king and queen
Am7 C Em A7 D
in a coat he borrowed from James Dean in a voice that came from you and me
Em D Em D
And while the king was looking down, the jester stole his thorny crown
C G A7 C D7
The courtroom was adjourned, no verdict was returned
G D Em Am C
And while Lenin read a book on Marx, the quartet practiced in the park
G D Em C D7 G C G
And we sang dirges in the dark the day the music died, we were singin'
CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7

VERSE
G Am
Helter skelter in a summer swelter
C Am Em D
the birds flew off with a fallout shelter, eight miles high and fallin' fast
G D Em
It landed foul on the grass
Am7 C Em A7 D
the players tried for a forward pass, with the jester on the sidelines in
A cast
Em D Em D
Now at halftime there was sweet perfume, while sergeants played a marching
Tune
C G A7 C D7
We all got up to dance, but we never got the chance
G D Em Am C
'Cuz the players tried to take the field, the marching band refused to yield
G D Em C D7 G C G
Do you recall what was the feel the day the music died, we started singin'
CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie

Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
VERSE
G Am
And there we were all in one place,
C Am Em D
a generation lost in space, with no time left to start again
G D Em Am7 C
So come on Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack Flash sat on a candle
Em A7 D
stick, 'cuz fire is the devil's only friend
Em D Em D
And as I watched him on the stage, my hands were clenched in fists of rage
C G A7 C D7
No angel born in Hell could bread that Satan's spell
G D Em Am C
And as the flames climbed high into the night to light the sacrificial rite
G D Em C D7 G C G
I saw Satan laughing with delight the day the music died, he was singin'
CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
G C G D

Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
LAST VERSE
G D Em
I met a girl who sang the blues
Am C Em D
And I asked her for some happy news, but she just smiled and turned away
G D Em
I went down to the sacred store
Am C Em C
Where I'd heard the music years before, but the man there said the music
D
wouldn't play
Em Am Em Am
But in the streets the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poets
dreamed
C G Am C D
But not a word was spoken, the church bells all were broken
G D Em Am7 C D7
And the three men I admire most, the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost
G D Em Am7 D7 G
They caught the last train for the coast the day the music died,
D7
And they were singin'
FINAL CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
C D7 G C G
Singin' this will be the day that I die.

We fall in love 'til it hurts or bleeds or fades in time
And I never (never) saw you coming
And I'll never
C F G C
My baby makes me proud. Lord, don't she make me proud
C F G
She never makes a scene by hangin' all over me in crowd

But when they turn out the lights I know she'll be leavin' with me

Em C
Set the cheetahs on the loose
B Am
There's a thief out on the move
Em C
Underneath our legion's view
B Am
They have taken Cleopatra
Verse-
The jewel of Africa
(Jewel)
What good is a jewel that ain't still precious
How could you run off on me?
How could you run off on us?
You feel like God inside that gold
I found you laying down with Samson
And his full head of hair
Found my black queen Cleopatra
Bad dreams Cleopatra
Chorus-
Remove her
Send the cheetahs to the tomb
Our war is over, our queen has met her doom
No more she lives, no more serpent in her room
No more, it has killed Cleopatra, Cleopatra

Working at the pyramid
You showed up after work I'm bathing your body
Touch you in places only I know
You're wet and you're warm just like our bathwater
Can we make love before you go
The way you say my name makes me feel like
I'm that
But I'm still unimplored
You say it's big but you take it
Ride cowgirl
But your love ain't free no more, baby
But your love ain't free no more
She's working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
That's right
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight
Working at the pyramid
Working at the pyramid tonight

Intro-
A E/G# D F#m E D
A E/G# D
And even though the moment passed me by
F#m E D
I still can't turn away
A E D
I saw all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
F#m E D
tossed along the way
A E/G# D
letters that you never meant to send
F#m E D
lost or thrown away
F#m E
And now we're grown up orphans

That never knew their names
F#m E
We don't belong to no one

That's a shame

you could hide beside me
D
Maybe for a while
F#m E D
And I won't tell no one your name
A E/G# D F#m E D
And I won't tell 'em your name
A E/G# D
scars are souvenirs you never lose
F#m E D
The past is never far
A E/G# D
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there?
F#m E D
Did you get to be a star?
A E/G# D
And don't it make you sad to know that life
F#m E D
Is more than who we are
F#m E
You grew up way too fast

And now there's nothing to believe

And reruns all become our history

A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
F#m E D
And I won't tell no one your name
A E/G# D F#m E D
And I won't tell 'em your name
