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
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
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
Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
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
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
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
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
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.

Verse 2 and 3: Amaj7 Fmaj7 C7 E7
Intro Verse 1:
I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place
Even your emotions have an echo in so much space
And when you're out there without careYeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enoughI just knew too much
Chorus:
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Possibly
Verse 2:
And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice
Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you
Who do you think you are Ha ha ha, bless your soul
You really think you're in control
Chorus:
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me
Verse 3:
My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on the limb
And all I remember is thinking I want to be like them
Ever since I was little Ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come And I can die when I'm done
Chorus:
But maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably

3. (rapping) in D
Protection for gangs, clubs, and nations,
causing grief in human relations.
It's a turf war on a global scale,
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale.
See, it's not about races, just places, faces.
Where your blood comes from is where your space is.
I've seen the bright get duller,
I'm not going to spend my life being a color.

[Verse] G
When the sun goes down on my side of town
That lonesome feelin' comes to my door
C G
An' the whole world turns... blue
G
There's a rundown bar across the railroad tracks
I got a table for two, way in the back
C G
Where I sit alone... and I think of losin' you
D G
I spend most every night beneath the light of a neon moon
[Chorus] C D
Now, if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams dance in and out of the beams
G
Of a neon moon.
[Verse] G
I think of two young lovers a-runnin' wild and free
I close my eyes and sometimes see
C G
You in the shadows of this smoke-filled room
G
No tellin' how many tears I've sat here and cried
Or how many lies that I've lied
C G
Tellin' my poor heart she'll come back someday
D G
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon
[Chorus]
[Verse] G
The jukebox plays on drink by drink
And the words to ev'ry sad song seem to say what I think
C G
And this hurt inside of me, it ain't never gonna end
D G
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon
[Chorus]

Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

Smoke on the water...
RIFF 2X
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

And the game done chose me
C2
(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

(That your men don?t understand) My love
CHORUS

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

VERSE 1 : A / / E7
Friday night I trashed your party Saturday I said I'm sorry
Sunday came and trashed me out again
Bm G E A
I was only having fun wasn't hurting anyone
And we all enjoyed the weekend for a change
VERSE 2 I was stranded in the combat zone, I walked through Bedford Stuy alone
Even rode my motorcycle in the rain
And you told me not to drive, but I made it home alive
So you said that only proves that I'm insane
Chorus:
You may be right
A ---------------2--2--4--2-------------------------------------|
E ---0--0--3--4--------------0----------------------------------|

I may be crazy

E D F#m7
But it just may be a lunatic you're looking for
(line again) E A
Turn off the light Don't try to save me
D E A
You may be wrong for all I know but you may be right
VERSE 3 Oh, remember how I found you there Alone in your electric chair
I told you dirty jokes until you smiled
You were lonely for a man, I said Take me as I am
'Cause you might enjoy some madness for a while
Verse 4 Now think of all the years you tried to Find someone to satisfy you
I might be as crazy as you say
If I'm crazy then it's true
That it's all because of you
And you wouldn't want me any other way
Chorus 2
For once in my life I have someone who needs me
Someone I've needed so long
For once, unafraid, I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong
For once I can touch what my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Would make my dreams come true
For once in my life I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once, I have something I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore
For once, I can say, this is mine, you can't take it
As long as I know I have love, I can make it
For once in my life, I have someone who needs me
Em
You could buy me diamonds

You could buy me pearls

Alone in a world that's so cold?

Nobody on the road, nobody on the beach.

Empty lake, empty streets, the sun goes down alone.

I'm driving by your house, though I know your not home.

But I can see you, your brown skin shining in the sun.

You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby.

I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
C
After the boys of summer have gone.
Verse 2- (The same as verse 1)
I never will forget those nights.
I wonder if it was a dream.
Remember how you made me crazy,
Remember how I made you scream.
Now I don't understand what
Happened to our love.
But, baby, when I get you back,
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of.
(Chorus)
Bridge-Em C C D C C D A C D C Em C D C
Verse 3- (Also the same as verse 1)
Out on the road today I saw a Black Flag
Sticker on a Cadillac.
A little voice inside my head said-
Don't look back, you can never look back.
I thought I knew what love was.
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever.
I should just let them go, but

Chorus:
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 know, with a look in the eye / I can have any guy
Take him home for the night /And I take pride
in the fact that I decide / Who I want
Oooh, / This must be your lucky 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!

Em C D
You'll never make me stay, so take your weight off of me,
Em C D
I know your every move, so won't you just let me be?
Em C D
I've been here times before, but I was too blind to see,
Em C D
That you se-duce every man; this time you won't seduce me.
Em C D
She's saying; that's ok, hey baby, do what you please,
Em C D
I have the stuff that you want; I am the thing that you need.

She looked me deep in the eyes, she's touchin' me, so to start,

She likes the boys in the band; she knows when they come to town,
Em C D
Every musician's fan, after the curtain comes down.
Em C D
She waits at backstage doors, for those who have pres-tige,
Em C D
Who promise fortune and fame; a life that's so care-free.
Em C D
She's saying; that's ok, hey baby, do what you want,
Em C D
I'll be your night lovin' thing, I'll be the freak you can taunt.

But I hate sleepin' alone; why don't you come with me?
Em C D
I said my baby's at home; she's probably worried to-night,
Em C D
I didn't call on the phone, to say that I'm al-right.
Em C D
Diana walked up to me, she said; I'm all yours to-night,
Em C D
At that I ran to the phone, sayin'; baby, I'm al-right.

I said but unlock the door, because I forgot the key.

GGGGGG.. DDDDDD.. CCCC..CC CC..CCCC
I'm packed and I'm Holding, I'm smiling,
She's living, she's golden and she lives for me
She says she lives for me. Ovation.
She's got her own motivation
She comes around and she goes down on me
And I make her smile like a drug for you
Do ever what you want to do
Coming over you
Keep on smiling, what we go through
One stop to the rhythm that divides you
D / C / D / C /
And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
Chop another link like a coda with a curse
And I come on like a freak show takes the stage
We give them the games we play, she said
GGGGGG.. DDDDDD.. CCCC..CC CC..CCCC
I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life
I want something else
I'm not listening when you say Goodbye
The sky it was gold, it was rose
I was taking sips of it through my nose
And I wish I could get back there
Some place back there
Smiling in the pictures you would take
Doing crystal myth will lift you up until you break
It won't stop I won't come down
I keep stock with a tick-tock rhythm and a bump for the drop
And then I bumped up
I took the hit that I was given
Then I bumped again
And then I bumped again
D / C / D / C /
How do I get back there to
The place where I dell asleep inside you?
How do I get myself back to
The place where you said
GGGGGG.. DDDDDD.. CCCC..CC CC..CCCC
I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life
I want something else
I'm not listening when you say Goodbye
I believe in the sand beneath my toes
The beach gives a feeling
An earthy feeling
I believe in the faith that grows
And the four right chords can make me cry
When I'm with you I feel like I could die
And that would be all right
All right
D / C / D / C /
When the plance came in
She said she was crashing
The velvet it rips in the city we tripped
On the urge to feel alive
But now I'm struggling to survive
The days you were wearing
That velvet dress
You're the priestess
I must confess
Those little red panties
They pass the test
Slide up around the belly
Face down on the matress
G / D / C / D /
One now you hold me
And we're broken
Still it's all that I want to do
GGGGGG.. DDDDDD.. CCCC..CC CC..CCCC
Feel myself with a head made of the ground
I'm scared but I'm not coming down
No, no, no
And I won't run for my life
She's got her jaws just locked now in smile
But nothing is all right
All right
I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life
I want something else
I'm not listening when you say Goodbye...

I think it turned ten o'clock but I don't really know
Am
Then I can't remember caring for an hour or so

I started running but there's nowhere to run to

I sat down on the street, took a look at myself

Said where you going man, you know the world is headed for hell
Say your goodbyes if you got someone you can

Say goodbye to

Emaj7 Fm7
Well sometimes i go out by myself and i look across the water

And I think of all the things,

Chorus

And i've missed your ginger hair and the way you like to dress
A(add?) Abm B
Won't you come on over stop making a fool out of me
Emaj7 Fm7
Why won't you come on over Valerie? Valerie?
Verse 2
Did you have to go to jail, put your house up for sale,
did you get a good lawyer?
I hope you didnt catch a tan
I hope you find the right man who'll fix it up for ya
Are you shoppin' anywhere,

And did you have to pay the fine
you were dodging all the time are you still dizzy

[Dr Dre]
Ya'll know me still the same ol' G
But I been low key
Hated on by most these s
Wit no cheese, no deals and no G's, no wheels and no keys
No boats, no snowmobiles and no ski's
Mad at me cause
I can finally afford to provide my family wit groceries
Got a crib wit a studio and it's all full of tracks
To add to the wall full of plaques
Hangin up in the office in back of my house like trophies
But ya'll think I'm gonna let my dough freeze
Ho Please
You better bow down on both knees
Who you think taught you to smoke trees
Who you think brought you the o' G's
Eazy-E's Ice Cube's and D.O.C's and Snoop D O double G's
And a group that said mutha*** the police
Gave you a tape full of dope beats
The bomb weed stroll through in you hood
And when your album sales wasn't doin too good
Who's the doc that he told you to go see
Ya'll better listen up closely
All you s that said that I turned pop
Or the Firm flop
ya'll are the reason Dre ain't been getting no sleep
So *** ya'll all of ya'll
If ya'll don't like me blow me
Ya'll are gonna keep ***in around wit me
And turn me back to the old me
[chorus x2 - Eminem]
Nowadays everybody wanna talk like they got something to say
But nothin comes out when they move they lips
Just a buncha gibberish
And mutha***as act like they forgot about Dre
[Eminem]
So what do you say to somebody you hate
Or anybody tryna bring trouble your way
Wanna resolve things in a bloodier way
Just study your tape of NWA.
One day I was walkin by
Wit a walkmen on
When I caught a guy givin me an awkward eye
And strangled him off in the parkin lot wit his Karl Kani
I don't give a *** if it's dark or not
I'm harder than me tryna park a Dodge
But I'm drunk as ***
Right next to a humungous truck in a two car garage
Hoppin out wit two broken legs tryna walk it off
*** you too b**ch call the cops
I'ma kill you and them loud ass mutha***in barkin dogs
And when the cops came through
Me and Dre stood next to a burnt down house
Wit a can full of gas and a hand full of matches
And still one found out
Startin today and tomorrows the new
And I'm still loco and nuts
To choke you to death wit a Charleston chew
[Record scratch]
Slim shady hotter then a set of twin babies
In a Mercedes Benz wit the windows up
And the temp goes up to the mid 80's
Callin men ladies
Sorry Doc but I been crazy
There is no way that you can save me
It's ok go with him Hailey
[chorus x2]
[Dr Dre]
If it was up to me
You mutha***as would stop comin up to me
Wit your hands out lookin up to me
Like you want somethin free
When my last cd was out you wasn't bumpin me
But now that I got this little company
Everybody wanna come to me like it was some disease
But you won't get a crumb from me
Cause I'm from the streets of
I told em all
All them little gangstas
Who you think helped mold 'em all
Now you wanna run around and talk about guns
Like I ain't got none
What you think I sold 'em all
Cause I stay well off
Now all I get is hate mail all day sayin Dre fell off
What cause I been in the lab wit a pen and a pad
Tryna get this *** label off
I ain't havin that
This is the millenium of Aftermath
It ain't gonna be nothin after that
So give me one more platinum plaque and *** rap
You can have it back
So where's all the mad rappers at
It's like a jungle in this habitat
But all you savage cats
Knew that I was strapped wit gats
When you were cuddled wit cabbage patch
[Chorus x3]

the fingering may look strange, but its a smooth transition going from the G/E > F#/E >
since all you're doing is just sliding down the fretboard. In addition to the chords,
is a dissonent melody that is played during the intro and the chorus. Again on the
recording a keyboard is used, but it sounds pretty cool on an electic guitar with heavy distortion-

All i really want is to hold you tight
Treat you right, be with you day and night
baby, all i need is time
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
