Intro- Em C D C
Verse 1-
Em
Nobody on the road, nobody on the beach.
C
I feel it in the air, the summer's out of reach.
D
Empty lake, empty streets, the sun goes down alone.
C
I'm driving by your house, though I know your not home.
Chorus-
G D
But I can see you, your brown skin shining in the sun.
C
You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby.
G D
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 X2)

D Em G A
I was riding shotgun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car
D Em
He's got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel
G A
The other on my heart
D Em
I look around, turn the radio down
G A
He says baby is something wrong?
D Em G A
I say nothing I was just thinking how we don't have a song
And he says...
D Em
Our song is the slamming screen door,
G A
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
D Em G
When you're on the phone and you talk real slow
A D
Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Em
Our song is the way you laugh
G A
The first date ‚man, I didn't kiss her, but I should have‚Äù
Em A Em
And when I got home ... before I said amen
D G
Asking God if he could play it again
D Em G A
D Em G A
I was walking up the front porch steps after everything the day
D Em
Had gone all wrong or been trampled on
G A
And lost and thrown away
D Em G A
Got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin' bed
D Em
I almost didn't notice all the roses
G A
And the note that said...
D Em
Our song is the slamming screen door,
G A
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
D Em G
When you're on the phone and you talk real slow
A D
Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Em
Our song is the way you laugh
G A
The first date ‚man, I didn't kiss her, but I should have‚Äù
Em A Em
And when I got home ... before I said amen
D G
Asking God if he could play it again
D Em G A
Da da da da
D Em G A
Em G
I've heard every album, listened to the radio
D A Em
Waited for something to come along
G
That was as good as our song
D Em
Cause our song is the slamming screen door
G A D
Sneaking out late, tapping on his window
Em G
When we're on the phone and he talks real slow
A D
Cause it's late and his mama don't know
Em
Our song is the way he laughs
G A
The first date ‚man, I didn't kiss him, and I could have‚Äù
Em A Em
And when I got home ... before I said amen
D G D Em G A
Asking God if he could play it again...
D Em G A D Em G A
Play it again... Ho yea ho yea
D Em
I was riding shotgun with my hair undone
G A
In the front seat of his car
D Em
I grabbed a pen and an old napkin
G
And I... wrote down our song
[Verse 1- Kendrick Lamar]
Me and my s tryna get it, ya bish
Hit this house lick tell me is you with it, ya bish
Home invasion was persuasive
From nine to five I know it's vacant, ya bish
Dreams of living life like rappers do
Back when condom wrappers

I can only imagine, only imagine
What it'll be like
Oh, every time, it would bring me to life
I can only imagine, only imagine
What it'd be like, what it'd be like
What it'd be like, like, like
What it'd be like, like, like
I saw you from afar
Thought I'd say wassup
You can tell me your name, when we wakin' up
They call me Tunechi, I'm good, I'm Gucci
Now you can kiss your old dude goodbye, smooches
You're a beast, you're a beauty
Man I think somebody dun gave Cupid a Uzi, shoot me
You're a firework, brighter in the dark
So lets turn off the lights and give me that spark
Every time it would bring me to life
I can only imagine, only imagine what it'd be like
Oh every time it would bring me to life
I can only imagine, only imagine
What it'd be like, what it'd be like
What it'd be like, like, like
What it'd be like, like, like
I want to let her touch me, one touch will feel free
I want to feel free, she can kiss me
So I can finally be, so I can finally see, so I can finally see
I saw you from afar
Thought I'd say wassup
You can tell me your name, when we wakin' up
They call me Tunechi, I'm good, I'm Gucci
Now you can kiss your old dude goodbye, smooches
You're a beast, you're a beauty
Man I think somebody dun gave Cupid a Uzi, shoot me
You're a firework, brighter in the dark
So lets turn off the lights and give me that spark

Well I guess it would be nice if I could touch your body
I know not everybody has got a body like you
But I've got to think twice before I give my heart away
And I know all the games you play because I played them too
[Pre-chorus]
|E |B |E |B |E |B G#m |C#m |F#

Time to pick my heart up off the floor
When that love comes down without devotion
Well it takes a strong man, baby
But I'm showing you the door

Baby I know you're asking me to stay
Say please, please, please don't go away
You say I'm giving you the blues
Maybe you mean every word you say
Can't help but think of yesterday
And another who tied me down to loverboy rules

Verse 1: C G Em C
You can hold my hand / When you need to let go
C G Em C
I can be your mountain / When you're feeling valley-low
Em C
I can be your streetlight / Showing you the way home
C G Em C
If you can hold my hand / When you need to let go
CHORUS: G D C G G D F C
I want a house with a crowded table /
And a place by the fire for everyone
G D C G C G | D C | G
Let us take on the world while we're young and able /
And bring us back together when the day is done

Plant a little happiness / Let the roots run deep

If it's love that we give / Then it's love that we reap

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

Police have got the choke hold, oh----oh, oh, oh, but we just lost the beat
Who counts the money underneath the bar
Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars
Don't tell us you need us, 'cos we're [the ship of] fools
Looking for Bmerica, crawling through your schools
I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge, out on another gorgeous sunny Saturday,
I've seen that bumper-to-bumper traffic (CHORUS)
Here's your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city the city by the bay,
the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps

Capo 3
Am G
It may not mean nothing to y'all
F
but understand nothing was done for me
Am
So I don't plan on stopping at all
I want this sh-t forever man, ever man, ever man
G
I'm shutting sh-t down at the mall
F
And telling every girl she the one for me
Am
And I aint even planning to call
I want this sh-t forever man, ever man, ever man
Am
Last name ever first name greatest
Like a sprained ankle boy ain't nothing to play with
It started off local but thanks to all the haters
I know G4 pilots on a first name basis
And your city faded off to brown, Nino
She insists she got more class, we know
Swimming in the money come and find me, nemo
If I was at the club you know I ball, Kimo
Drop the mixtape that sh-t sounded like an album
Who'd have thought a country wide tour would be the outcome
Labels want my name but sign the x like Malcom
Everybody got a deal, I did it without one
Yeah n-gga i'm about my business
Killing all these rappers you would swear I had a hit list
Everybody who doubted me is asking for forgivness
If you aint been a part of it at least you got to witness, b-tches
Chorus
Am
I used to have hood dreams, big fame, big chains
I stuck my d-ck inside this life until that b-tch came
I went hard all fall like the ball teams
Just so I can make it rain all spring
Y'all seen my story my glory
I had raped the game young, you can call it statutory
when a n-gga blow up they can build statures from me
Old money Benjamin Button, what, nuttin
Now superbad chicks giving me MacLovin
You would think I ran the world like Michelle's husband
You would think these n-ggas would know me when they really doesn't
Like they was down with the old me no you f-cking wasn't
Your'E such A F-cking loser
He didn't even go to class, Bueller
Trade the Grammy plaques just to have my granny back
Remember she had that bad hip like a fanny pack
Chasing that stardom would turn you into a maniac
All the way in Hollywood and I can't even act
They pull their cameras out and God damn they snap
I used to want this thing forever you can have it back
Chorus
Am
Okay, hello its da martian, space jam Jordan's
I want this sh-t forever, wake and smell the garden
Fresher than the harvest, step up to the target
If I had one guess than I guess I'm just New Orleans
And I will never stop like I'm running from the cops
Hop up in my car and told my chauffeur to the top
Life is like a f-cking roller coaster then it drops
But what should I scream for this is my theme park
My minds shine even when my thoughts seem dark
Pistol on my side you don't wanna hear that thing talk
Let the king talk check the price and pay attention
Lil Wayne, thats what they got to say or mention
I'm like Nevada in the middle of the summer
I'm resting in the lead I need a pillow and a cover
shhh, my foots sleeping on the gas
No brake pads no such thing as last
Chorus
Am
There they go, back in stadiums, it's shady's b-tches flow,
Nuts they go, macadamia they go sablistic yo,
We can make them look like boso's, he's wondering if he should spit this slow,
F-ck no go for broke, his cup just wanna throw over, oh no,
He aint had a buzz like this since the last time he overdosed,
They've been waiting patiently for Pinnochio to poke his nose,
Back into the game and they know, rap will never be the same as before,
Bashing in the brains of these hoes, and establishing a name as he goes,
The passion of the flame is ignited, you can't put it out once we light it,
This sh-t is exactly what the f-ck I'm talking about when we riot,
You dealing with a few true villains, who stayin inside the boots you spillin
And spit true feelings, til our tooth fillings come flying up out of our mouths now rewind it
Payback muthaf-cka for the way you got at me so how's it taste
When I slap the taste out your mouth with the bass so loud that it shakes the place,
I'm hannibal lecters son just in case your thinking of saving face,
You ain't gonna have no face to save by the time Im through with this place, so Drake

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:

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

[Verse]
C
Love was kind, for a time
G C
Now just aches, and it makes me blind
C
This mirrors holds my eyes too bright
G C
That I can't see the others in my life
C
We too young and heads too strong
G C
To bear the weight of these lover's eyes
C
Cuz I feel numb beneath your tongue
G C
Beneath the curse of these lover's eyes.
[Chorus]
F C G C
But do not ask the price I pay, I must live with my quiet rage
F C G C
Tame the ghosts in my head that run wild and wish me dead
F C
Should you shake my ash to the wind
G C
Lord forget all of my sins
F C G C
Oh let me die where I lie beneath the curse of my lover's eyes
[Break]
C F (3x)
[Verse]
C
Cuz there's no drink or drug I've tried

But do not ask the price I pay, I must live with my quiet rage

[Verse 1]
(A#) (F)
I've practiced this for hours, gone round and round
(GM)
And now I think that I've got it all down
[D#]
And as I say it louder I love how it sounds
(C)
Cause I'm not taking the easy way out
Not wrapping this in ribbons
(D#)
Shouldn't have to give a reason why...
[Chorus 1]
(D#)
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
(F)
I can't believe that I stayed till today
(GM)
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
(D#) (F) (A#)
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
[Verse 2]
(A#) (F)
It came out like a river once I let it out
(GM)
When I thought that I wouldn't know how
(D#)
Held onto it forever just pushing it down

Felt so good to let go of it now
Not wrapping this in ribbons
(A#)
Shouldn't have to give a reason why
[Chorus 2]
(A#)
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
(F)
I can't believe that I stayed till today
(GM)
There's nothing here in this heart left to borrow
(D#)
There's nothing here in this soul left to say
(A#)
Don't be surprised when we hate this tomorrow
(F)
God know we tried to find an easier way
(GM)
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
(D#) (F) (A#)
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
[Bridge]
(A#)
Our favorite place we used to go
(F)
The warm embrace that no one knows
(GM)
The loving look that's left your eyes
(D#) (F) (A#)
That's why this comes as no, as no surprise
[Verse 3]
(A#) (F)
If I could see the future and how this plays out
(GM)
I bet it's better than where we are now
(D#)
But after going through this, it's easier to see the reason why
[Chorus 1]
(D#)
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
(F)
I can't believe that I stayed till today
(GM)
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
(D#) (F) (A#)
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise

Our favorite place we used to go

The warm embrace that no one knows

D# A#
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much

But all the praying just ain't helping at all

Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew

To bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies

Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries

With such an endurin' pain
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain

What a shame you shoot and aim for someone else's brain

Verse
Just keep repeating C D E, E D C But here are the rest of the words-
From standin on the corners boppin
to drivin some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen
For droppin some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard
From the dope spot, with the smoke Glock
fleein the murder scene, you know me well
from nightmares of a lonely cell, my only hell
But since when y'all z know me to fail? Fuck naw
Where all my z with the rubber grips, bust shots
And if you with me mom I rub on your tits, and what-not
I'm from the school of the hard knocks, we must not
let outsiders violate our blocks, and my plot
let's stick up the world and split it fifty/fifty, uh-huh
Let's take the dough and stay real jiggy, uh-huh
And sip the Cris' and get pissy-pissy
Flow infinitely like the memory of my Biggie, baby!
You know it's hell when I come through
The life and times of Shawn Carter
Volume 2, y'all z get ready
Chorus
Verse
I flow for those 'dro'ed out; all my z
locked down in the ten by fo', controllin the house
We live in hard knocks, we don't take over we borrow blocks
Burn em down and you can have it back daddy, I'd rather that
I flow for chicks wishin, they ain't have to strip to pay tuition
I see you vision mama, I put my money on the longshots
All my ballers that's born to clock
Now Imma be on top whether I perform or not
I went from lukewarm to hot; sleepin on futons and cots
to King Size, dream machines, the green fives
I've seen pies let the thing between my eyes analyze life's ills
Then I put it down type braile
I'm tight grill with the phony, rappers y'all might feel we homies
I'm like still, y'all don't know me, shit!
I'm tight grill when my situation ain't improvin
I'm tryin to murder everything movin, feel me?!
Chorus
Verse
I don't KNOW how to sleep, I gotta eat, stay on my toes
Gotta a lot of beef, so logically, I prey on my foes
Hustling's still inside of me, and as far as progress
you'd be hard-pressed, to find another rapper hot as me
I gave you prophecy on my first joint, and y'all lamed out
Didn't really appreciate it, til the second one came out
So I stretched the game out, X'ed your name out
Put Jigga on top, and drop albums non-stop for ya, uh!
Chorus x2
... It's the hard knock life!!
................ it's the hard knock life!!

[Verse 1] Em C D G
Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leavin' my life in your hands
People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Risking it all in a glance
And how you got me blind is still a mystery
I can't get you out of my head
Don't care what is written in your history
As long as you're here with me
[Chorus 1] C G Em D
I don't care who you are
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me
Who you are
Where you're from
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me
[Verse 2]
Every little thing that you have said and done
Feels like it's deep within me
Doesn't really matter if you're on the run
It seems like we're meant to be
[Chorus]
[Bridge] Em G
I've tried to hide it so that no one knows
C
But I guess it shows
C D
When you look into my eyes

What you did and where you're comin from
C#m7b5 Cmaj7 D C G Em D
I don't care, as long as you love me, baby

I could lift you up
I could show you what you want to see
And take you where you want to be
You could be my luck

I know that we'll be safe and sound
Verse 2:
I could fill your cup
You know my river won't evaporate
This world we still appreciate
You could be my luck
Even in a hurricane of frowns
I know that we'll be safe and sound (safe and sound)
Line Trumpet: C# F# F# G# A B C# E E E+ D C# B

We're safe and sound (safe and sound)

In a tidal wave of mystery
You'll still be standing next to me
You could be my luck
Even if we're six feet underground
I know that we'll be safe and sound

We teach girls to shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller

You should aim to be successful. But not too successful Otherwise you will threaten the man.

Because I am female I am expected to aspire to marriage
C#m D
I am expected to make my life choices always keeping in mind that marriage is the most important
C#m D
Now marriage can be a source of. Joy and love and mutual support
C#m D
But why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage and we don't teach boys the same?
C#m D
We raise girls to each other as competitors, not for jobs or for accomplishments, which
I think can be a good thing
C#m D
But for the attention of men. We teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings, in the
way that boys are

I'm loose
And everybody knows I get
A E F#m C#
It doesn't matter what I say
D A D E
So long as I sing with inflection
A E F#m C#
That makes you feel that I'll convey
D A D E
Some inner truth of vast reflection
A E F#m C#
But I've said nothing so far
D A D E
And I can keep it up as long as it takes
A E F#m C#
And it don't matter who you are

If I'm doing my job then it's your resolve that breaks
A E F#m C#
Because the hook brings you back
D A D E
I ain't tellin' you no lie
A E F#m C#
The hook brings you back
D A D E
On that you can rely
There is something amiss
I am being insincere
In fact I don't mean any of this
Still my confession draws you near
To confess the issue I refer
To familiar heroes from long ago
No matter how much Peter loved her
What made the Pan refuse to grow
Was that the hook brings you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook brings you back
On that you can rely
--Popper's Harmonica Solo--
Suck it in suck it in suck it in
If you're Rin Tin Tin or Anne Boleyn
Make a desperate move or else you'll win
And then begin
To see
What you're doing to me this MTV is not for free
It's so PC it's killing me
So desperately I'll sing to thee
Of love
Sure but also rage and hate and pain and fear of self
And I can't keep these feelings on the shelf
I've tried well no in fact I've lied
Could be financial suicide but I've got too much pride inside
To hide or slide
I'll do as I decide and let it ride until I've died
And only then shall I abide this tide
Oc catchy little tunes
Of hip three minute ditties
I wanna bust all your balloons
I wanna burn all of youre cities
To the ground I've found
I will not mess around
Unless I play then hey
I will go on all day hear what I say
I have a prayer to pray
That's really all this was
And when I'm feeling stuck and need a buck
I don't rely on luck because...
The hook brings you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook brings you back
On that you can rely

Intro
Dm A#
You'd take the clothes off my back and I'd let you
You'd steal the food right out my mouth and I'd watch you eat it
Gm A A# Dm
I still don't know why, why I love you so much, ohh
You curse my name, in spite to put me to shame
A#
Have my laundry in the streets, dirty or clean, give it up for fame
Gm A A# Dm
But I still don't know why, why I love it so much
[Hook- Justin Timberlake]
F C
And baby, it's amazing I'm in this maze with you
Dm
I just can't crack your code
C
One day you screaming you love me loud
A#
The next day you're so cold
C
One day you here, one day you there, one day you care
A
You're so unfair, sipping from your cup 'til it runneth over, Holy Grail
[Verse 1- Jay-Z]
Blue told me remind you s
Fuck that shit y'all talking 'bout, I'm the
Caught up in all these lights and cameras
But look what that shit did to Hammer
Goddammit it I like it
Bright lights is enticing but look what it did to Tyson
All that money in one night, thirty mill for one fight
But soon as all the money blows, all the pigeons take flight
Fuck the fame, keep cheating on me, what I do, I took her back
Fool me twice, that's my bad, I can't even blame her for that
Enough to make me wanna murder, momma please just get my bail
I know nobody to blame, Kurt Cobain, I did it to myself
[Bridge- Justin Timberlake]
Dm
And we all just entertainers
And we're stupid and contagious
And we all just entertainers

You're so unfair, sipping from your cup 'til it runneth over, Holy Grail
[Verse 2- Jay-Z]
Dm
Now I got tattoos on my body, psycho es in my lobby
I got haters in the paper, photo shoots with paparazzi
Can't even take my daughter for a walk, see 'em by the corner store
I feel like I'm cornered off enough is enough, I'm calling this off
Who the fuck I'm kidding though, I'm getting high, sitting low
Sliding by in that big body, curtains all in my window
This fame hurt but this chain works, I think back you asked the same person
If this is all you had to deal with, deal with, this shit ain't work
This light work, camera snapping, my eyes hurt
s dying back where I was birthed, fuck your IRIS and the IRS
Get the hell up off your high horse
You got the shit that s die for, dry yours
Why you mad, take the good with the bad
Don't throw the baby out with the bath water
You still alive, still that
you survived, you still getting bigger
Living the life, Vanilla wafers in a villa
Illest alive, Michael Jackson's Thriller
[Hook]
F C
And baby, it's amazing I'm in this maze with you
Dm
I just can't crack your code
C
One day you screaming you love me loud

The next day you're so cold

One day you here, one day you there, one day you care
A
You're so unfair, sipping from your cup 'til it runneth over, Holy Grail
[Bridge- Justin Timberlake]
Dm A#
You get the air out my lungs whenever you need it
And you take the blade right out my heart, just so you can watch me bleed
Gm A A# Dm
I still don't know why, why I love you so much, yeah
And you play this game in spite to drive me insane
A#
I got it tattooed on my sleeve forever in ink with guess whose name
Gm A A# Dm
But I still don't know why, why our love is so much
[Hook]

And baby, it's amazing I'm in this maze with you

The future's far away

And all the pain and sorrow, running free
Cause tommorow's just another day
And I don't believe in

Time is walking
You ain't no friend of mine

At this point an acoustic guitar enters strumming the chords. From this
point on, one of the electrics plays the riff during the verses, the part
shown above during the bridges, and strums the chords during the choruses
(Time is wasting..) and solo. The second electric plays the occasional
power chord during verses and bridges and strums along to the choruses.
It also takes the solo-

you can use the second fill in the intro where it goes c-csus4
(verse 1)
G
Sittin on a bench at West Town mall,
C-Csus4
He sat down in his overalls, and asked me,
C-Csus4
You waitin on a woman,
G
I nodded yes n' how bout you,
C-Csus4
He said son since 1952, I've been,
C-Csus4
Waitin on a woman
(chorus)
Am (G)
When I picked her up for our first date,
F
I told her I'd be there at eight,
C G C
And she came down the stairs at 8-30,
Am (G)
She said I'm sorry that I took so long,
F
Didn't like a thing that I tried on,
C F C
But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty,
Dm C-F
Yea she'll take her time, but I don't mind,
C-Csus4= 2x's
Waitin on a woman
(verse 2)
He said the wedding took a year to plan,
You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous,
Waitin on a woman
And he nudged my arm like old men do, and said
I'll say this about the honeymoon, it was worth it,
Waitin on a woman
(chorus)
Am (G)
And I don't guess we'd been anywhere
F
She hasn't made us late I swear,
C G C
Sometimes she does it just cause she can do it,
Am (G)
Boy it's just a fact of life,
F
it's be the same with your young wife,
C F C
Might as well go on and get used to it,
Dm C-F
she'll take her time, cause you don't mind,
C
Waitin on a woman
( lead - G - C - G - C )

Am (G)
I've read somewhere statistics show,
F
The mans always the first to go,
C G C (C/B)
And that makes sense cause I know she won't be ready,
Am (G)
So when it finally comes my time,
F
And I get to the other side,
C F C
I'll find myself a bench if they got any,
Dm C-F
I hope she takes her time, cause I don't mind,
C
Waitin on a woman,
Dm C-F
Honey take your time, cause I don't mind,

So, so you think you can tell,
Am G
Heaven from Hell, blue skys from pain.
D C Am
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail, a smile from a veil,
G
Do you think you can tell?
C D
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts,
Am G D
Hot ashes for trees, hot air for a cool breeze, cold comfort for change,
C Am G
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
Em G Em G Em A Em A
C D
How I wish, how I wish you were here.

We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,

C G
And she's got everything that I have to live without
C Am F G
Drew talks to me, I laugh cause it's so damn funny
C Am F G
That I can't even see, anyone when he's with me
Am F
He says he's so in love, he's finally got it right
C G
I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night
Chorus-
C G
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
Am F
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
C G Am F
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
C Am F G
Drew walks by me, can he tell that I can't breathe?
C Am F
And there he goes so perfectly
G
The kind of flawless I wish I could be
Am F
She'd better hold him tight, give him all her love
C G
Look in those beautiful eyes, and know she lucky cause
Repeat Chorus
Am F
So I drive home alone, as I turn off the light
C G
I put his picture down and maybe get some sleep tonight
Alt. Chorus-
C G
Cause he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
Am F
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
C G Am F
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do

He's the time, taken up, but there's never enough
