Escape
1ST VERSE-
C - D - Bm - C
[Mariah]
Boy your love's so good
I don't wanna let go
And although I know I should
I can't leave you alone
'Cause you're so disarming
I'm caught up in the midst of you
And I can not resist
And oh..
PRE-CHORUS-
C - D - Bm - C
Boy I can do,
The things you want me to
The way I used to do
Could you love me, baby
Hold me, feeling now
Go and break my heart
CHORUS-
Heartbreaker, you got the best of me
But I just keep on coming back incessantly
Oh why, did you have to run your game on me
I should have known right from the start
You'd go and break my heart
ADLIB-
C - D - Bm - C
Give me your love
(8x)
2ND VERSE-
C - D - Bm - C
It's a shame to be so euphoric and weak
When you smile at me
And you tell me the things that you know
Understatement to relinquish my love to you
But I can not resist at all
[Repeat Pre-Chorus]
[Repeat Chorus]
BRIDGE-
C - D - Bm - C
[Jay-Z]
She wanna shop with Jay, play box with Jay
She wanna pillow fight in the middle of the night
She wanna drive my Benz with 5 of her friends
She wanna creep past the block spyin' the game
She wanna roll with Jay, chase the skeeos away
She wanna fight with lame chicks, blow my day
She wanna inspect the rest, kick me to the curb
If she find a strand of hair longer than hers
She want love in the jacuzzi, rub up in the movies
? to the old crib, keys to the newbie
She wanna answer the phone, tattoo her arm
That's when I gotta send her back to her moms
She call me Heartbreaker
When we apart, it makes her
Wanna get a piece of paper, scribble I hate ya
But she know she love Jay because
She love everything Jay say, Jay does
And uh...
[Repeat Chorus (4x)]

[Drake- Verse 1]
I've asked about you and they've told me things
But my mind didn't change, I still the feel the same
What's a life with no fun? please don't be so ashamed
I've had mine, you've had yours, we both know
We know, **strumming fast here sounds good** they don't get you like I will
My only wish is I die real
Cause that truth hurts, and those lies heal
And you can't sleep thinking that he lies still
So you cry still, tears all in the pillow case
Big girls all get a little taste
Pushing me away so I give her space
Dealing with a heart that I didn't break
I'll be there for you, I will care for you
I keep thanking you, just don't know
Try to run from that, say you're done with that
On your face girl, it just don't show
When you're ready, just say you're ready
When all the baggage just ain't as heavy
And the parties over, just don't forget me
We'll change the pace and we'll just go slow
*stop strumming* Won't ever have to worry,
You won't ever have to hide
If you've seen all my mistakes
So look me in my eyes
Am, G, F
[Rihanna]
Cause if you let me, here's what I'll do
I'll take care of you
I've loved and I've lost

[Drake- Verse 2]
It's my birthday, I get high if I want to
Can't deny that I want you, but I lie if have to
Cause you don't say you love me
To your friend when they ask you
Even though we both know that you do (you do) *strumming here sounds good*
One time, been in love one time
You and all your girls in the club one time
All so convinced that you're following your heart
Cause your mind don't control what it does sometimes
We all have our nights though, don't be so ashamed
I've had mine, you've had yours, we both know
We know, *stop strumming* you hate being alone
You ain't the only one
You hate the fact that you bought the dream
And they sold you one
You love your friends but somebody shoulda told you somin' to save you
Instead they said…

Intro: G C G Hm Em Am D
I need love, love to ease my mind and I need to find time,
someone to call mine. My Mama said:
Refrain: G G C G Bm Em Am D
You can't hurry love. No you just have to wait.
She said: Love don't come easy, but it's a game of give and take.
You can't hurry love. No you'll just have to wait.
Just trust on a good time, no matter how long it takes.
Strophe: Bm Em Am D
How many heartaches must I stand,
before I find the love to let me live again.
Right now the only thing, that keeps me hangin' on,
when I feel my strenghth, oh it's almost gone, I remember Mama said:
Refrain: G G C G Bm Em Am D
You can't hurry love. No you just have to wait.
She said: Love don't come easy, but it's a game of give and take.
How long must I wait? How much more must I take,
before loneliness will 'cause my heart, heart to break?
Strophe: Bm Em Am D
No I can't bear to live my life alone.
I grow impatient for a love to call my own.
But when I feel that I, I can't go on.
Well these Precious words keep me hangin' on, I remember Mama said:
Refrain:
Strophe: G G C G Bm Em Am D
Now love, love don't come easy, but I keep on waiting, anticipating for that
soft voice to talk to me at night, for some tender arms to hold me tight.
I keep waiting, oh 'til that say, but it ain't easy, no, you know it ain't easy.
My Mama said:

(same chords)
I don't know where this road
Is going to lead
All I know is where we've been
And what we've been through.
If we get to see tomorrow
I hope it's worth all the wait
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.
And I'll take with me the memories
To be my sunshine after the rain
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.
And I'll take with me the memories
To be my sunshine after the rain
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.

If you had my love
And I gave you all my trust
Would you comfort me
And if somehow you knew that your love would be untrue
Would you lie to me
And call me baby
Verse
Now if I gave you me, this is how it's got to be
First of all I won't take you cheatin' on me
Tell me who can I trust if I can't trust in you
And I refuse to let you play me for a fool
You said that we could possibly spend eternity
See that's what you told me (that's what you said)
But if you want me
You have to be fulfilling all my dreams
(If you really want me babe)
CHORUS
Verse
Said you want my love and you've got to have it all
But first there are some things you need to know
If you want to live
With all I have to give
I need to feel true love
Or it's got to end, yeah
I don't want you
Trying to get with me
And I end up unhappy
(Don't need the hurt and I don't need the pain)
So before I do
Give myself to you
I have to know the truth
(If I spend my life with you)

(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.

Intro
G
G
You can be amazing
G
You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug
Em
You can be the outcast
Em
Or be the backlash of somebody's lack of love
C
Or you can start speaking up
G
Nothing's gonna hurt you the way that words do
G
And they settle ‘neath your skin
Em
Kept on the inside and no sunlight
C
Sometimes a shadow wins
D
But I wonder what would happen if you
G
Say what you wanna say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G
With what you want to say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G
I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you
C
I just wanna see you
D
I wanna see you be brave
G
Everybody's been there, everybody's been stared down
G
By the enemy
Em
Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing
Em
Bow down to the mighty
C
Don't run, stop holding your tongue
G
Maybe there's a way out of the cage where you live
Em
Maybe one of these days you can let the light in
C D
Show me how big your brave is
G
Say what you wanna say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G
With what you want to say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
Em G
And since, your history of silence
C
Won't do you any good
C
Did you think it would?
Em G
Let your words be anything but empty
C D
Why don't you tell them the truth?
G
Say what you wanna say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G
With what you want to say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G
I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I just wanna see you

I wanna see you be brave

Verse 1: F# D#m B C#
Lookin' in your eyesI see a paradise
This world that I've found is too good to be true
Standin' here beside you
Want so much to give you
This love in my heart that I'm feeling for you
Let 'em say we're crazy
I don't care about that
Put your hand in my hand
Baby, don't ever look back
Let the world around us Just fall apart
Baby, we can make it If we're heart to heart
Chorus:
And we can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers
We'll still have each other
Nothing's gonna stop us
Nothing's gonna stop us now
Verse 2:
I'm so glad I found youI'm not gonna lose you
Whatever it takesI will stay here with you
Take you to the good times
See you through the bad times
Whatever it takesIs what I'm gonna do
Let 'em say we're crazy
What do they know?
Put your arms around me
Baby, don't ever let go
Let the world around us Just fall apart
Baby, we can make it If we're heart to heart

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

We all know sometimes life's hate and troubles
Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet your life times that and twice its double
That God knew exactly where He wanted you to be placed
So make sure when you say you're in it but not of it
You're not helping to make this Earth a place sometimes called Hell
Change your words into truths and then change that truth into love
And maybe our children's grandchildren
And their great-great-grandchildren will tell
I'll be loving you...
[repeat choruses 1, 2, 3]
Always...

If I woulda just laid my drink down, and walked out,
Gm D# A# F/A
I wouldn't be in my truck, driving us to your house.

They say if you love something let it go
If it comes back it's yours
That's how you know
It's for keeps, yeah, it's for sure
And you're ready and willin'
To give me more than

Verse 1-
D E7
There's a place that I know

Or will you stay
E7
Even if it hurts

Even if I try to push you out
E7
Will you return?
Bm
And remind me who I really am
G
Please remind me who I really am
Chorus-

Everybody's got a dark side

Do you love me?

Can you love mine?

Nobody's a picture perfect

But we're worth it
A
You know that we're worth it
Bm
Will you love me?
G
Even with my dark side?
Verse 2- same chords as verse 1
Like a diamond
From black dust
It's hard to know
It can become
A few give up
So don't give up on me
Please remind me who I really am

Am F
As a matter of fact I was the one who said I love you first
C G
It was about eight years ago, don't act like you don't know
We were sittin' at home in your mama's livin' room
Cause, we couldn't be alone
See your mama knew I was something else, she knew how I felt
Back then we were in school; and that's your favourite excuse
Growin' up I was a fool; and I can't lie I'm missing you
Listen and don't trip
I think I need a bottle with a genie in it
Here's my wish list
First one, I would create a heart changing love
Second one, I'll take yours and fill it all up
Third one, but I don't need a lot of wishes cause I'll be okay if I get one
If I had one wish, we would be best friends
Love would never end, it would just begin
If I had one wish, you would be my boo
Promise to love you, trust me I'll trust you
If I had one wish, we would run away
Making love all day, have us a baby
If I had one wish, I'd make you my whole life
And you'd be my wife, make it right this time
If I had one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
[ Tab from- http://www.guitaretab.com/r/ray-j/367144.html ]
Now tell me is this the only way I can get you right back in
If so then searchin' I'll go, then I can have you for sho
Then you'll be loving me, holding me, kissing me
So girl don't tell me what I'm feeling is make believe
I swear if I lose a second chance with you
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd probably check myself into some kind of clinic
I couldn't be alone because without you I'm sick
Here's my wish list
First one, I would create a heart changing love
Second one, I'll take yours and fill it all up
Third one, but I don't need a lot of wishes cause I'll be okay if I get one
If I had one wish, we would be best friends
Love would never end, it would just begin
If I had one wish, you would be my boo
Promise to love you, trust me I'll trust you
If I had one wish, we would run away
Making love all day, have us a baby
If I had one wish, I'd make you my whole life
And you'd be my wife, make it right this time
If I had one wish
I don't even know how we ended upon this road
And, even though we are grown, Girl I just want you to know
If I had one wish, we would be best friends
Love would never end, it would just begin
If I had one wish, you would be my boo
Promise to love you, trust me I'll trust you
If I had one wish, we would run away
Making love all day, have us a baby
If I had one wish, I'd make you my whole life
And you'd be my wife, make it right this time

Second best is never enough
You'll do much better baby on your own

They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out the ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
But swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
We ended up at the grand hotel
It was empty cold and bare
But with the rolling truck stones thing just outside
Making our music there
With a few red lights and a few old beds
We make a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know we'll never forget
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

Listen to the song for rhythm and the layout of the song. Ive tried to tab out the
as best as i could and hope its clear enough to understand.
Lyrics-
said a hip hop
the hippie the hippie
to the hip hip hop, a you dont stop the rock it
to the bang bang boogie, say up jumped the boogie
to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat
now what you hear is not a test--i'm rappin to the beat
and me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
see i am wonder mike and i like to say hello
to the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
but first i gotta bang bang the boogie to the boogie
say up jump the boogie to the bang bang boogie
let's rock, you dont stop
rock the riddle that will make your body rock
well so far you've heard my voice but i brought two friends along
and next on the mike is my man hank
come on, hank, sing that song
check it out, i'm the c-a-s-an-the-o-v-a
and the rest is f-l-y
ya see i go by the code of the doctor of the mix
and these reasons i'll tell ya why
ya see i'm six foot one and i'm tons of fun
and i dress to a T
ya see i got more clothes than muhammad ali and i dress so viciously
i got bodyguards, i got two big cars
that definitely ain't the wack
i got a lincoln continental and a sunroof cadillac
so after school, i take a dip in the pool
which really is on the wall
i got a color tv so i can see
the knicks play basketball
hear me talkin bout checkbooks, credit cards
more money than a sucker could ever spend
but i wouldnt give a sucker or a bum from the rucker
not a dime till i made it again
everybody go, hotel motel
what you're gonna do today (say what)
cause i'm going to get a fly girl, gonna get some spanking drive off off in a fresh oj.
go hotel, motel, holiday inn
say if your girl starts actin up, then you take her friend
master g, my mellow
its on you so what you gonna do
well it's on n on n on on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
i said m-a-s, t-e-r, a g with a double e
i said i go by the unforgettable name
of the man they call the master gee
well, my name is known all over the world
by all the foxy ladies and the pretty girls
i'm goin down in history
as the baddest rapper there ever could be
now i'm feelin the highs and ya feelin the lows
the beat starts gettin into your toes
ya start poppin ya fingers and stompin your feet
and movin your body while youre sittin in your seat
and the damn ya start doin the freak
i said damn, right outta your seat
then ya throw your hands high in the air
ya rockin to the rhythm, shake your derriere
ya rockin to the beat without a care
with the sureshot m.c.s for the affair
now, im not as tall as the rest of the gang
but i rap to the beat just the same
i dot a little face and a pair of brown eyes
all im here to do ladies is hypnotize
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on
like a hot buttered a pop da pop da pop dibbie dibbie

come alive yall gimme what ya got
i guess by now you can take a hunch
and find that i am the baby of the bunch
'but that's okay i still keep in stride
cause all i'm here to do is just wiggle your behind
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on

to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
skiddlee beebop a we rock a scoobie doo
and guess what america we love you
cause ya rocked and a rolled with so much soul
you could rock till you're a hundred and one years old
i dont mean to brag i don't mean to boast
but we like hot butter on our breakfast toast
rock it up a baby bubbah
baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang da boogie
to the beat beat, its so unique
come on everybody and dance to the beat
a hip hop
the hippie the hippie to the
hip hip hop, a you dont stop rock it
rock it out baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang
the boogie to the boogie da beat
i said i cant wait til the end of the week
when im rappin to the rhythm of a groovy beat
and attempt to raise your body heat
just blow your mind so that you can't speak
and do a thing bout a rock and shuffle your feet
and let it change up to a dance called the freak
and when ya finally do come in to your rhythmic beat
rest a little while so ya don't get weak
i know a man named hank
he has more rhymes than a serious bank
so come on hank sing that song
to the rhythm of the boogie da bang bang da bong
well, im imp the dimp the ladies pimp
the women fight for my delight
but im the grandmaster with the three mc's
that shock the house for the young ladies
and when you come inside, into the front
you do the freak, spank, and do the bump
and when the sucker mc's try to prove a point
[ Tab from- http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-sugarhill-gang/128630.html ]
we're treacherous trio, we're the serious joint
a from sun to sun and from day to day
i sit down and write a brand new rhyme
because they say that miracles never cease
i've created a devastating masterpiece
i'm gonna rock the mike till you cant resist
everybody, i say it goes like this
well i was comin home late one dark afternoon
a reporter stopped me for a interview
she said she's heard stories and she's heard fables
that i'm vicious on the mike and the turntable
this young reporter i did adore
so i rocked some vicious rhymes like i never did before
she said damn fly guy im in love with you
the casanova legend must have been true
i said by the way baby what's your name
said i go by the name of lois lane
and you could be my boyfiend you surely can
just let me quit my boyfriend called superman
i said he's a fairy i do suppoose
flyin through the air in pantyhose
he may be very sexy or even cute
but he looks like a sucker in a blue and red suit
i said you need a man who's got finesse
and his whole name across his chest
he may be able to fly all through the night
but can he rock a party til the early light
he cant satisfy you with his little worm
but i can bust you out with my super sperm
i go do it, i go do it, i go do it, do it , do it
an i'm here an i'm there i'm big bang hank, im everywhere
just throw your hands up in the air
and party hardy like you just dont care
let's do it don't stop yall a tick a tock yall you don't stop
go hotel motel what you gonna do today (say what)
im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spank drive off in a def oj
everybody go hotel motel holiday inn
you say if your girl starts actin up then you take her friend
i say skip, dive, what can i say
i can't fit em all inside my oj
so i just take half and bust them out
i give the rest to master gee so he could shock the house
it was twelve o'clock one friday night
i was rockin to the beat and feelin all right
everybody was dancin on the floor
doin all the things they never did before
and then this fly fly girl with a sexy lean
she came into the bar, she came into the scene
she traveled deeper inside the room
all the fellas checked out her white sasoons
she came up to the table, looked into my eyes
then she turned around and shook her behind
so i said to myself, its time for me to release
my vicious rhyme i call my masterpiece
and now people in the house this is just for you
a little rap to make you boogaloo
now the group ya hear is called phase two
and let me tell ya somethin we're a hell of a crew
once a week we're on the street
just a-cuttin' the jams and making it free
for you to party ya got to have the movies
so we'll get right down and give you the groove
for you to dance you gotta get hype
so we'll get right down for you tonight
now the system's on and the girls are there
ya definitely have a rockin affair
but let me tell ya somethin there's still one fact
and to have a party ya got to have a rap
so when the party's over you're makin it home
and tryin to sleep before the break of dawn
and while ya sleepin ya start to dream
and thinkin how ya danced on the disco scene
my name appears in your mind
yeah, a name you know that was right on time
it was phase two just a doin a do
rockin ya down cause ya know we could
to the rhythm of the beat that makes ya freak
come alive girls get on your feet
to the rhythm of the beat to the beat the beat
to the double beat beat that it makes ya freak
to the rhythm of the beat that says ya go on
on n on into the break of dawn
now i got a man comin on right now
he's guaranteed to throw down
he goes by the name of wonder mike
come on wonder mike do what ya like
i say a can of beer that's sweeter than honey
like a millionaire that has no money
like a rainy day that is not wet
like a gamblin fiend that does not bet
like dracula with out his fangs
like the boogie to the boogie without the boogie bang
like collard greens that dont taste good
like a tree that's not made out of wood
like goin up and not comin down
is just like the beat without the sound no sound
to the beat beat, ya do the freak
everybody just rock and dance to the beat
have you ever went over a friends house to eat
and the food just ain't no good
i mean the macaroni's soggy the peas are mushed
and the chicken tastes like wood
so you try to play it off like you think you can
by sayin that youre full
and then your friend says momma he's just being polite
he ain't finished uh uh that's bull
so your heart starts pumpin and you think of a lie
and you say that you already ate
and your friend says man there's plenty of food
so you pile some more on your plate
while the stinky foods steamin your mind starts to dreamin
of the moment that it's time to leave
and then you look at your plate and your chickens slowly rottin
into something that looks like cheese
oh so you say that's it i got to leave this place
i dont care what these people think
im just sittin here makin myself nauseous
with this ugly food that stinks
so you bust out the door while its still closed
still sick from the food you ate
and then you run to the store for quick relief
from a bottle of kaopectate
and then you call your friend two weeks later
to see how he has been
and he says i understand about the food
baby bubbah but we're still friends
with a hip hop the hippie to the hippie
the hip hip a hop a you don't stop the rockin
to the bang bang boogie
say up jump the boogie to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
i say hank can ya rock
can ya rock to the rhythm that just don't stop
can ya hip me to the shoobie doo
i said come on make the make the people move
i go to the halls and then ring the bell
because i am the man with the clientele
and if ya ask me why i rock so well
a big bang, i got clientele
and from the time i was only six years old
i never forgot what i was told
it was the best advice that i ever had
it came from my wise dear old dad
he said sit down punk i wanna talk to you
and don't say a word until im through
now there's a time to laugh a time to cry
a time to live and a time to die
a time to break and a time to chill
to act civilized or act real ill
but whatever ya do in your lifetime
ya never let a mc steal your rhyme
so from six to six til this very day
ill always remember what he had to say
so when the sucker mc's try to chump my style
i let them know that i'm versatile
i got style finesse and a little black book
that's filled with rhymes and i know you wanna look
but the thing that separates you from me
and that's called originality
because my rhymes are on from what you heard
i didnt even bite and not a go word
and i say a little more later on tonight
so the suker mc's can bite all night
a tick a tock yall a beat beat yall
a lets rock yall ya don't stop
ya go hotel motel whatcha gonna do today (say what)
ya say im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spankin
drive off in a def oj
everybody go hotel motel holiday inn
ya say if your girl starts actin up then you take her friends
a like that yall to the beat yall
beat beat yall ya don't stop
a master gee my mellow
its on you so whatcha gonna do
well like johnny carson on the late show
a like frankie croker in stereo
well like the barkay's singin holy ghost
the sounds to throw down they're played the most

whose name he earned with his super sperm
we rock and we don't stop
get off yall im here to give you whatcha got
to the beat that it makes you freak
and come alive girl get on your feet
a like a perry mason without a case
like farrah fawcett without her face

like comin alive to the master gee
the brother who rocks so viciously
i said the age of one my life begun
at the age of two i was doin the do
at the age of three it was you and me
rockin to the sounds of the master gee
at the age of four i was on the floor
givin all the freaks what they bargained for
at the age of five i didnt take no jive
with the master gee its all the way live
at the age of six i was a pickin up sticks

i gotta run on down to the beat you see

CHORUS
Cm7
You make me wanna leave the one I'm with
Fm7 Abmaj7 G
Start a new relationship with you, this is what you do.
Cm7 Fm7 Abmaj7
I think about a ring and all the things that come along with
G
you make me, you make me (2x)
Cm7
Before anything began between us
Abmaj7 G
You were like my best friend
Cm7
The one I used to run and talk to
Abmaj7 G
When me and my girl was having problems
Cm7
You used to say it'll be OK
Abmaj7 G
Suggest little nice things I should do
Cm7
And when I go home at night and lay my head down
Abmaj7 G
Last thing I think about was you and how...
CHORUS
Cm7
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
Db Bbsus4 Bb
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
Bmaj7 Bbsus4
I tried, I tried to fight it but the feeling's just too strong.
Cm7 Fm7 Abmaj7 G
You make me wanna, you make me wanna.
D
So this is what you meant when you said that you were spent?
A Bm
And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit right to the top,
Don't hold back
G
Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain check
D A
I don't ever want to let you down
Bm
I don't ever want to leave this town
G
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night...
D
It's time to begin, isn't it?
Bm
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
Em
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
G
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?
D A Bm G
D
So this is where you fell, and I am left to sell
A
the path that heaven runs through miles of clouded hell,
Bm
right to the top
Don't look back
G
Turning to rags and give the commodities a rain check
D
I don't ever want to let you down
A Bm
I don't ever want to leave this town
G
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night...
D
It's time to begin, isn't it?
Bm
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
Em
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
G
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?
Bm A
This road never looked so lonely,
G
This house doesn't burn down slowly,
Em G
to ashes, to ashes...
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?
Bm
It's time to begin, isn't it?
A
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
G
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Em G
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?

A lonely mother gazing out of her window

If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side
D# A#
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
F C
But all the praying just ain't helping at all

Another body laying cold in the gutter

One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror

Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray

I pray all ten fade away
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days

Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew
D#
To bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies
A#
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries
F
My only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope
C
With such an endurin' pain
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain

Who's to blame for tootin' 'caine into your own vein?
A#
What a shame you shoot and aim for someone else's brain

You claim the insane and name this day in time

I know I am beautiful / I don't need you to tell me so
Don't think you know me / You ain't figured me out
Never cared too much for fashion / I just wanted to be comfortable
I DO NOT PAIN FOR PRETTY! / I'm already beautiful!
I ain't wearing no high heels/ I ain't doing my nails
You can put that mascara /Back on the self
Chorus:
My music is my passion / Listen and appreciate
What I'm wearing doesn't matter / I'm more than a pretty face
I love myself / You can't rain on this parade
‘Cause I tell me I'm pretty / Each and every single day

I'm way too pretty to be straight! And just as sexy in the morning...
I know I'm hot / I see when I take my clothes off / I look in the mirror and I say to myself
This don't belong to nobody else / This don't belong to no one but me
I got everything I need / Yeah, I'm already BEAUTIFUL!

VERSE I
Em
I hold on so nervously
Bm
To me and my drink
I wish it was cooling me
Em
But so far, has not been good
Bm
It's been shitty
And I feel awkward, as I should
Em
This club has got to be
Bm
The most pretentious thing
Since I thought you and me
Em
Well I am imagining
A
A dark lit place
G
Or your place or my place
CHORUS
Em
Well I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
A G
I want to make you move
G
Because you're standing still
Em
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
A
You'll probably move right through
G Em
Me on my way to you
VERSE (same with 1st verse)
I hold out for one more drink
Before I think
I'm looking too desperately
But so far has not been fun
I should just stay home
If one thing really means one
This club will hopefully
Be closed in three weeks
That would be cool with me
Well I'm still imagining
A dark lit place
Or your place or my place
CHORUS
Well, I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
We'll, I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you

She open up the door and didn't want to come near me
I said one second baby please hear me
[Chorus]
[Breakdown](Chords same as chorus)
This by far is the hardest thing I think I've ever had to do
To tell you, the woman I love
That I'm having a baby by a woman that I barely even know
I hope you can accept the fact that I'm man enough to tell you this
And hopefully you'll give me another chance
This ain't about my career
This ain't about my life
It's about us

Sunday morning, rain is falling
Steal some covers, share some skin (I like that)
Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable
You twist to fit the mold that I am in
But things just get so crazy
Living life gets hard to do
And I would gladly hit the road, get up and go if I knew
That someday it would lead me back to you
That someday it would lead me back to you (oh, someday)
That may be all I need
In darkness, she is all I see (all I see)
Come and rest your bones with me
Driving slow on Sunday morning
And I never want to leave
Yeah, fingers trace your every outline, oh yeah, yeah
Yeah, paint a picture with my hand, oh, woah
And back and forth we sway like branches in a storm
Change the weather, still together when it ends
That may be all I need (all I need)
In darkness, she is all I see
Come and rest your bones with me
Driving slow on Sunday morning
And I never want to leave

Summer days they were [D] warmer then,
When we laughed with the [A] old fishermen,

On a grey foggy [A] day. [D] [A]

To the sound of the [A] old fog horn,
And wait for the [E] men to return
With their boats in the [A] bay; [Asus4] [A]

As long as my [D] heart
Doesn't break from those old [A] memories,
Old lovers and [E] old use-to-bes,

Em Em D6/9 D6/9 x2
[Verse 1]
Em D6/9
On the first part of the journey
Em D6/9
I was looking at all the life
Em D6/9
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
Em D6/9
There were sand and hills and rings
Em D6/9
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
Em D6/9
And the sky with no clouds
Em D6/9
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
Em D6/9
But the air was full of sound
[Chorus]
Em9 Dmaj9
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Em9 Dmaj9
It felt good to be out of the rain
Em9 Dmaj9
In the desert you can remember your name
Em9 Dmaj9
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
[Verse 2]
Em D6/9
After two days in the desert sun
Em D6/9
My skin began to turn red
Em D6/9
After three days in the desert fun
Em D6/9
I was looking at a river bed
Em D6/9
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Em D6/9
Made me sad to think it was dead
[Chorus]
Em9 Dmaj9
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Em9 Dmaj9
It felt good to be out of the rain
Em9 Dmaj9
In the desert you can remember your name
Em9 Dmaj9
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
[Verse 3]
Em D6/9
After nine days I let the horse run free
Em D6/9
'Cause the desert had turned to sea
Em D6/9
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
Em D6/9
There were sand and hills and rings
Em D6/9
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
Em D6/9
And a perfect disguise above
Em D6/9
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
Em D6/9
But the humans will give no love
[Chorus]
Em9 Dmaj9
You see, I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Em9 Dmaj9
It felt good to be out of the rain

In the desert you can remember your name

E B
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
G#m F#
All of my change I spent on you
E
Where have the times gone
B G#m F#
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
E B
Yeah, I, I know it's hard to remember
G#m
The people we used to be
F#
It's even harder to picture
E
That you're not here next to me
B
You say it's too late to make it
G#m
But is it too late to try?
F#
And in our time that you wasted
E
All of our bridges burned down
B
I've wasted my nights
G#m
You turned out the lights
F#
Now I'm paralyzed
E B
Still stuck in that time when we called it love
G#m F#
But even the sun sets in paradise
E B
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
G#m F#
All of my change I spent on you
E
Where have the times gone
B G#m F#
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
E B
If happy ever after did exist
G#m F#
I would still be holding you like this
E B
All those fairytales are full of shit
G#m F#
One more fucking love song I'll be sick
E B
You turned your back on tomorrow
G#m
Cause you forgot yesterday
F#
I gave you my love to borrow
E
But just gave it away
B
You can't expect me to be fine
G#m
I don't expect you to care
F#
I know I've said it before
E
But all of our bridges burned down
(after prechorus and chorus)
E
Now I'm at a payphone...
[Wiz Khalifa] Man fuck that shit
B
I'll be out spending all this money while you sitting round
G#m
Wondering why it wasn't you who came up from nothing
F#
Made it from the bottom
Now when you see me I'm stunning
E
And all of my cars start with the push up a button
B
Telling me the chances I blew up or whatever you call it
G#m
Switched the number to my phone
So you never could call it
F#
Don't need my name on my show
You can tell it I'm ballin'
E
Swish, what a shame could have got picked
B
Had a really good game but you missed your last shot
G#m
So you talk about who you see at the top
F#
Or what you could've saw
But sad to say it's over for
E
Phantom pulled up valet open doors
B
Wiz like go away, got what you was looking for
G#m
Now ask me who they want
F#
So you can go and take that little piece of shit with you
