His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
Am C
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
Em D
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
Am C
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting
Em D
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
Am C
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
Em D
He's chokin' how, everybody's chokin' now
Am C
The clock's run out, times up, over, blaw!
Em D
Snap, back to reality, oh, there goes gravity
Am C Em
Oh, there goes Rabbit he choked, he's so mad but he won't
D Am
Give up that easy, no, he won't have it he knows
C Em
His whole back's to these ropes, it don't matter he's dope
D Am
He knows that but he's broke, he so stagnant he knows
C
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Em C
Back to the lab again, yo
Am
This whole rhapsody better go capture this moment

And hope it don't pass him (X3)

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo X2

VERSE 2-
Em D
His soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping
Am C
This world is mine for the taking, make me king
Em D Am
As we move toward a new world order, a normal life is boring
C Em
But superstardom's close to post mortem
D Am
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
C Em
He blows it's all over, these h**s is all on him
D Am C
Coast to coast shows, he's known as the Globetrotter lonely roads
Em D
God only knows he's grown farther from home, he's no father
Am C
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
Em D
But hold your nose cuz here goes the cold water
Am C
These h**s don't want him no mo', he's cold product
Em D
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
Am C Em
He nose dove and sold nada, so the soap opera is told it unfolds
D Am
I suppose it's old partna, but the beat goes on
C
Da da dum, da dum da da da da
CHORUS
Em,D
No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this mothaf****n' roof off like two dogs caged
I was playin' in the beginning, the mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin' and stepped, writin' the next cipher
Best believe somebody's payin' the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the fact
That I can't get by with my 9 to 5
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cuz man, these *** damn food stamps don't buy diapers
And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder
Tryin' to feed and water my seed, plus teeter-totter
Caught up between bein' a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama's screamin' on and too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another day of monotony's
Gotten me to the point I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot
Success is my only mothaf****n' option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem's lot, so here I go it's my shot
Feet fail me not, this may be the only opportunity that I got

[Verse 1]
A D
When a single mom goes out on a date with somebody new
E D A
It always winds up feeling more like a job interview
D
My momma used to wonder if she'd ever meet someone
E D A
Who wouldn't find out about me and then turn around and run
A D
I met the man I call my dad when I was 5 years old
E D A
He took my mom out to a movie and for once I got to go
D
A few months later I remember lying there in bed
E D A
I overheard him pop the question and I prayed that she'd say yes... And then
[Chorus 1]
Bm E
All of a sudden oh it seemed so strange to me
A D
How we went from somethings missing to a family
Bm E F#m
Looking back all I can say about all the things he did for me
A D A
Is I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
[Verse 2]
A D
I met the girl who's now my wife about three years ago
E D A
We had the perfect marriage, but we wanted something more
D
Now here I stand surrounded by our family and friends
E D A
Crowded round the nursery window as they bring the baby in... And now
[Chorus 2]
Bm E
All of a sudden oh it seemed so strange to me
A D
How we've gone from somethings missing to a family
Bm E F#m
Looking through the glass I think about the man who's standing next to me
D E A
And I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
Bm A
You know he didn't have to be
Verse 1: G | Em | C D | G
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No, I won't be afraid
Oh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
RAP
[Chorus]
So darlin', darlin', stand by me / Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand / Stand by me, stand by me
RAP
[Verse 2]
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
RAP
[Chorus]
So darlin', darlin', stand by me / Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand / Stand by me, stand by me
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Woah, just stand now
Oh, stand, stand by me

Spent forty-eight dollars last night at the county fair.
I throwed out my shoulder, but I won her that Teddy Bear.
She's got me saying,"Sugar Pie, Honey, Darlin', and Dear."
I ain't seen the Braves play a game all year.
I’m gonna get fired, if I don't get some sleep.
My long lost buddies say I'm gettin' in too deep.

Its innocent.
I kissed a girl,
and I liked it.
The taste of her cherry chapstick.
I kissed a girl,
Just to try it.
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it.
It felt so wrong,
It felt so right.
Don't mean i'm in love tonight.
I kissed a girl,
And I liked it.
I liked it

Chorus: Em Am D G C Am Bm Em
If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own
Verse 1:
Can't live without me, you wanna, but you can't, no, no, no
Think it's funny, but honey, can't run this show on your own
I can feel my body shake, there's only so much I can take
I'll show you how a real queen behaves, oh
Pre Chorus:
No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But if I had one, it'd be bigger than yours
Chorus:
Verse 2:
Disobey me, then baby, it's off with your head
Gonna change it and make it a world you won't forget, oh-oh, oh
No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Pre Chorus:
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But I'm stronger than I ever was before
Chorus:
Bridge
In chess, the king can move one space at a time
But queens are free to go wherever they like
You get too close, you'll get a royalty high
So breathe it in to feel the love

If I were a boy
Even just for a day
Em C G D
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted and go
G C Em D
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
Em C G D
I'd kick it with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
etc
Because they'd stick up for me
Chorus-
If I were a boy
I think that I'd understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
cause I know how it hurts
when you lose the one you wanted
cause he's taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed!
verse 2-
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone that its broken
so they think
that I was sleeping alone
I'd put myself first
and make the rules as I go
cause I know that she'll be faithful
waiting for me to come home ( to come home)
Chorus
If I were a boy
I think that I could understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her

cause he's taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed!
It's a little too late for you to come back
Say its just a mistake
Think I forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
Chorus
But your just a boy
You don't understand (and you don't understand)
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you'll wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you taken her for granted
And everything that you had got destroyed
But your just a boy…

It may seem to you
That i`m acting confused

I`ve got cause to be
There`s a name for it
There`s a phrase that fits
But whatever the reason
You do it for me

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold

and she's buying a stairway to heaven

When she gets there she knows if the stores are all closed

with a word she can get what she came for

Oh___ oh____ and she's buying a stairway to heaven

There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure

'cause you know sometimes words have two meanings

In a tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings

Sometimes all of her thoughts are misgiven

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west

and the voices of those who stand looking
Am7 Am Dsus4 D Am7 Am Em D C D
Oh___ it makes me wonder
Am7 Am Dsus4 D Am7 Am D C D
Oh___ it really makes me wonder
And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
then the piper will lead us to reason
And the new day will dawn for those who stand long
and the forest will echo with laughter
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow don't be alarmed now
it's just a spring clean for the May queen
Yes there are two paths you can go by but in the long run
there's still time to change the road you're on
...and it makes me wonder
Your head is humming and it won't go in case you don't know
the piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady can you hear the wind blow and did you know
your stairway lies on the whispering wind

Am G F G
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks the lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
how everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
the truth will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll
F G Am
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

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

She flies like a bird over her shoulder
She whispers in his ear, boy, you are my star
CHORUS

I know your stairs and your doorway
I walk down your street and past your gate
I stand by the light at the fourway
You watch them as they fall
Ooh, and they all have heart attacks
They stay at the carnival, but they'll never win you back
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train

How do I say goodbye to what we had?
A E
The good times that made us laugh
Eadd9 Bsus B
Outweigh the bad.
E G#
I thought we'd get to see forever
C#m E A6 Am6
But forever's gone away
E B A Am E
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.
(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.
G Em7 Em
Dreams, that's where I have to go
D G
to see your beautiful face anymore
Em7 Em D
I stare at a picture of you and listen to the radio
G Em7 Em
Hope, hope there's a conversation
D G
we both admit we had it good but
Em7 Em D
until then it's alienation, I know, that much is understood
C
And I realize
CHORUS-
G C
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
Em D C
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
G C
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two
Em D C
and finally I'm forced to face the truth
Em D G Em7 Em D G
No matter what they say, I'm not over you
Damn, damn girl you do it well
And I thought you were innocent
You took this heart and put it through hell
But still you're magnificent
I I'm a boomerang doesn't matter how you throw me
Turn around and I'm back in the game
Even better than the old me
But I'm not even close without you
CHORUS-
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two
and finally I'm forced to face the truth.
No matter what I say, I'm not over you
BRIDGE-
D G C Em
And if I had the chance to renew
D G C
You know there isn't a thing I wouldn't do
Em D
I could get back on the right track
G C
But only if you'd be convinced
Em D
So until then
CHORUS-
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two
and finally I'm forced to face the truth
No matter what I say, I'm not over you
Not over you
Not over you
Not over you

your demons, and all the non believers, the plans that they have made?
