Jade Chorus:
This is why we do this, We love good music,
Music fills my room when I'm alone,
Doesn't matter where I am I'm always home,
With a good song
Adrian 1:Now everybody got a reason a thesis that they believe in
here's a couple of mine as I be dropping a rhyme,
See I'm a lyricist I love to pay attention to words man
I'm just trying to do my thing in different parts of the world hey yo,
Sometimes we need distractions from all of the bad that happens,
Sometimes we need to relax this life is such a challenge,
And sometimes, We just need compassion,
But yo without good music then it's hard to have it
Chorus:
Adrian 2:So yo enjoy your moment as you work on what's important
and I'm speaking from experience music helps me focus,
It feels amazing as I listen and I dance to it,
When I'm under pressure my songs they help me handle it and yo,
Whether it's the beat or the lyrics you feel the energy
and maybe you'll remember me one day when you play this melody,
Yeah good music is timeless which is why
it doesn't matter anytime you rewind it yo
Verse 3:When it comes to music I'm a savage for it all
I don't panic anymore when I'm on the mic as I perform,
Thanks to practice I'm a rappin' fanatic,
And yo I ain't ashamed I'll admit I'm an addict,
Gimme that rock and roll or gimme pop, or maybe give me Hip Hop,
Or gimme Spanish music where the party don't stop,
Genre doesn't matter, you just make it your own
with a good song you know that you'll always be home
So once again this is why we do it , If you couldn't tell by now
All Singers: We love good music And instead of having so much confusion
my solution's making music yo to me it's therapeutic
With the right state of mind I'm taking on any challenge
As I stay on the grind But with good music I'm balanced,
And like I said it doesn't matter, you just make it your own
and with a good song you know that you'll always be home
Jade Verse 1
Gimme the mic gimme the booth, / Feeling the vibe feeling the tune
Matter of time you're gonna find, / Power inside power in you, get in the groove
This is why we do this, We love good music, /
And I get in my zone when my favorite song comes on
Jade Verse 2
I've been at this for a minute / It's been a really good run /
My fingers doing what they want to do / I'm just having fun /
I'm doing this for me and it's cool if people get to see /
I got 100 in the vault and if I never take off
I can still rest easy knowing this is why we do this
Verse1: A | E | E7 | A

[Capo 3]
Intro- / G - F C / /
Listen, boy, I don't want to see you let
A good thing slip away
You know I don't like watching anybody make
The same mistakes I made
She's a real nice girl and she's always there for you
But a nice girl wouldn't tell you what you should do
/ G - / F C / - / Bm Bb Am - / Cm G Am AmC /
Oh, listen, boy, I'm sure that you think
You got it all under control
You don't want somebody telling you
The way to stay in someone's soul
You're a big boy now and you'll never let her go
But that's just the kind of thing she ought to know
... / Cm G Am GA /
{Refrain}
Tell her about it, tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason to accept that you're for real
Tell her about it, tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her, let her know how much she means
/ D - F#m - / Bm - Em EmA / -
Listen, boy, it's not automatically
A certain guarantee
To insure yourself you've got to provide
Communication constantly
When you love someone you're always insecure
And there's only one good way to reassure
{As Refrain}
Tell her about it, let her know how much you care
When she can't be with you tell her you wish you were there
Tell her about it everyday before you leave
Pay her some attention, give her something to believe
'Cause now and then she'll get to worrying
Just because you haven't spoken for so long
Though you may not have done anything
Will that be a consolation when she's gone
/ F Dm Eb - / Gm C D - / 1st / Gm C A - /
Listen, boy, it's good information
From a man who's made mistakes
Just a word or two that she gets from you
Could be the difference that it makes
She's a trusting soul, she's put her trust in you
But a girl like that won't tell you what you should do
{Refrain}
Tell her about it, tell her how you feel right now
Tell her about it, the girl don't want to wait too long
You got to tell her about it
Tell her now and you won't go wrong
You got to tell her about it before it gets too late
You got to tell her about it

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

Maybe we make a deal,

Maybe together we can get somewhere.

Just 'cross the border and into the city,
Cmaj7 G
You and I can both get jobs
Em D
And finally see what it means to be living.
[Pre-Chorus]

Cmaj7 G Em D
My mama went off and left him, she wanted more from life than he could give,
Cmaj7 G
I said, Somebody's got to take care of him.

So I quit school and that's what I did.

You got a fast car.

And we go cruising to entertain ourselves;

And I work in a market as a checkout girl.

I know things will get better-

You'll find work and I'll get promoted,
Cmaj7 G
We'll move out of the shelter
Em D
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs.
[Pre-Chorus]
Cmaj7 G
You got a fast car.

Cold beer on a Friday night

Raise your glasses for a toast

So we don't have to sacrifice

All the things we love

VERSE 2- -Just repeat same chords
She was sippin' on southern and singin' Marshall Tucker
We were falling in love in the sweet heart of summer
She hopped right up into the cab of my truck and said
fire it up let's go get this thing stuck
Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle every little farm town with you
In this brand new chevy with a lift kit
Look a hell lot better with you up in it
So Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
When that summer sun fell to it's knees
I looked at her and she looked at me
And I turned on those KC lights and drove all night
Cuz it felt so right her and I man we felt so right
I put it in park
and grabbed my guitar
and strung a couple cords
and sang from the heart
Girl you sure got the beat in my chest bumpin'
Hell I can't get you out of my head
Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle every little farm town with you
Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle every little farm town with you
In this brand new chevy with a lift kit
Look a hell lot better with you up in it
Come on
Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Come on girl
Get those windows down and cruise

Dial her number and confess to her

I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing

So I stumble there, along the railings and the fences

Every drunk step I take leads me to her door
Em F
If she sees how much I'm hurting
Am G
She'll take me back for sure
[Chorus]
C
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
G
'Cause I'm shouting your name all over town
Am
I'm swearing if I go there now

I can change your mind, turn it all around

And I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words

And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred

Dial her number and confess to her

I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing

Am G
And this what I'ma do 'til it's over, ‘til it's over
But it's far from over
E5
Bottles on me, long as someone drink it
Never drop the ball, fuck are y'all thinkin'?
Makin' sure the Young Money ship is never sinkin'
‘Bout to set it off, set it off, Jada Pinkett
I shouldn't've drove, tell me how I'm gettin' home
You too fine to be layin' down in bed alone
I could teach you how to speak my language, Rosetta Stone
I swear this life is like the sweetest thing I've ever known
‘Bout to go Thriller Mike Jackson on these n***s
All I need's a fucking red jacket with some zippers
Super good smiddoke, a package of the swishers
I did it overnight, it couldn't happen any quicker
Y'all know them? Well, fuck it, me either
But point the biggest skeptic out, I'll make him a believer
It wouldn't be the first time I done it, throwin' hundreds
When I should be throwin' ones, , I run it (Ah)
Chorus
E5
One thing 'bout music, when it hits you feel no pain
And I swear I got that shit that make these es go insane
So they tell me that they love me, I know better than that, it's just game
It's just what comes with the fame, and I'm ready for that, I'm just sayin'
But I really can't complain, everything is kosher
Two thumbs up, Ebert and Roeper
I really can't see the end getting any closer
But I prolly still be the man when everything is over
So I'm riding through the city with my high beams on
Can you see me? Can you see me? Get your Visine on
Y'all just do not fit the picture, turn your widescreen on
If you thinkin' I'ma quit before I die, dream on
Man, they treat me like a legend, am I really this cold?
I'm really too young to be feelin' this old
It's about time you admit it, who you kiddin', man?
Man, nobody's never done it like I did it (Ugh)
Chorus

But it's far from over

Yeah, that's right, I'm doin' me, I'm doin me

D Dmaj7
And now, the end is near,
D7 B7
And so I face the final curtain,
Em7 Em7/D
My friend. I'll say it clear,
Em7/Db A7 D
I'll stay my case of which I'm certain.
D D7
I've lived a live that's full.
G Gm
I traveled each and every highway,
D A Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And more, much more than this, I did it m…………….y way.
D Dmaj7
Regrets, I've had a few,
D7 B7
But then again, too few to mention.
Em7 Em7/D
I did what I had to do,
Em7/Db A7 D
And saw it thru without exemption.
D D7
I planned each charted course,
G Gm
Each careful step along the byway,
D A Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And more, much more than this, I did it m___...y way.
D D7
Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew,
G Gsus4 G
When I bit off more than I could chew,
Em A7
But thru it all, when there was doubt,
F# Bm7
I ate it up, and spit it out.
Em A
I faced it all, and I stood tall,
Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And did it m___...y way.
I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.
To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it m___y way.
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it m___y way!
Am Em
Somewhere there's speaking
Bm C
It's already coming in
Am Em Bm C
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
Am Em
You never could get it
Bm C
Unless you were fed it
Am Em Bm C
Now you're here and you don't know why
//It's all the same pattern here//
But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return
Chorus
Am G
He's everything you want
Bm C
He's everything you need
Am G
He's everything inside of you
D C
That you wish you could be
//Same here again
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why
//Just the same as b4 chorus
You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say
Back to Chorus
//Same as the chorus above
Em C
But you'll just tight
C
And watch it unwind
Em D C
It's only what you're asking for
Em C
And you'll be just fine
Em C
With all of your time
Em D C
It's only what you're waiting for
//Do as the top
Out of the island
Into the highway
Past the places where you might have turned
You never did notice
But you still hide away
The anger of angels who won't return
//Do as the chorus
Chorus
I am everything you want
I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
But I mean nothing to you and I don't know why
And I don't know why
Why
I don't know

Chorus: I Am A sinner Who's probably gonna sin again
Lord forgive me Lord forgive me Things I don't understand
Sometimes I need to be alone don't kill my vibe don't kill my vibe
I can feel your energy from two planets away
I got my drink I got my music I will share it but today I'm yelling
don't kill my vibe don't kill my vibe
Verse 1: Look inside my soul and you can find gold and maybe get rich
Look inside of your soul and you can find out it never exist
I can feel the changes / I can feel a new life/ I always knew life can be dangerous
I can say that I like a challenge and you tell me it's painless / You don't know what pain is
How can I paint this picture / When the color blind is hanging with ya
Fell on my face and I woke with a scar / Another mistake living deep in my heart
Buried on top of my sleeve in a flick /I can admit that it did look like yours
Why you resent every making of this /Tell me your purpose is petty again
But even a small lighter can burn a bridge .Even a small lighter can burn a bridge
I can feel the changes / I can feel the new people around me just want to be famous
You can see that my city found me then put me on stages
To me that's amazing / To you that's a quick check, with all disrespect let me say this
Verse 2: I'm trying to keep it alive and not compromise the feeling we love
You trying to keep it deprived and only co-sign what radio does And I'm looking right past ya
We live in a world, we live in a world on two different axles
You live in a world, you living behind the mirror
I know what you scared of, the feeling of feeling emotions inferior
This shit is vital, I know you had to / This shit is vital,
I know you had to Die in a pitiful vain, tell me a watch and a chain
Is way more believable, give me a feasible gain Rather a seasonal name,
I'll let the people know this is something you can blame On yourself you can remain, stuck in a box
Ima break out and then hide every lock / Ima break out and then hide every lock
I can feel the changes / I can feel the new people around me just want to be famous
You can see that my city found me then put me on stages To me that's amazing
To you that's a quick check, with all disrespect let me say this
Verse 3: You ain't heard a chorus like this in a long time
Don't you see that long line
And they waiting on Kendrick like the 1st and the 15th
3's in the air I can see you are - in sync
Hide your feelings, hide your feelings now what you better do
I'll take your girlfriend and put that pussy on a pedestal
don't kill my vibe . don't kill my vibe /Walk out the door and they scream it's alive
My new year's resolution is to stop all the pollution
Talk too motherfucking much, I got my drink I got my music I say - don't kill my vibe
don't kill my vibe / don't kill my vibe / don't kill my vibe

Singer Songwriter
You're not the first boy to offer the world
I think you're cool but I'm not that kind of girl
If I wanted to sleep my way to the top
I'd a done been there
I'm not just another girl singer songwriter
Playing in a cafe waiting for her big break, no
Any other girl would be lucky you found her
Fall over in love, but I cannot because of who I am
I'm a good girl, at least I'm trying to be
Until some dumb fool brings out the in me
Cause if I wanted to sleep my way to the top
Believe me I'd a done been there
Chorus
You think as a girl I'm used to getting everything that I want
But I worked very hard for every single thing that I'd got
I studied and that's why I'm smart
I pour my love into my art
And no one can take that part of who I am

That's not gonna work now
Db
Packed all my clothes and I moved out
Fm
I don't even wanna go to your house
Db
Everytime I sit on that couch
Fm
I feel like you lecture me
Db
Eventually, I bet that we
Could have made this work
Fm
And probably woulda figured things out
Bbm
But I guess I'm a letdown
Fm
But it's cool, I checked out
Oh, you wanna be friends now?
Db Fm
Okay, let's put my fake face on and pretend now
Db
Sit around and talk about the good times
Fm
That didn't even happen
I mean, why are you laughing?

Must have missed that joke

Let me see if I can find a reaction
No, but at least you're happy

I wish that I could shut them out

I'm sorry that I let you down

Verse 1: D Bm7 G D
Oh her eyes, her eyes,
make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair, falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful, and I tell her every day
Yeah, I know, I know when I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look okay, I say
[Chorus]
When I see your face,
there's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile,
the whole world stops and stares for a while
Cause girl you're amazing, just the way you are, (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Her lips, her lips,
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh,
she hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful, and I tell her every day
Oh, you know, you know, you know I'd never ask you to change
If perfect is what you're searching for, then just stay the same
So, don't even bother asking if you look okay, you know I'll say

Believing that her love is true, oh
Standing on the dance floor while she's trickin'
You are all I want girl, she's a chicken

[Verse 1]
Gm A# D# Csus2
Some-times, I feel, I've got to;
Gm A# D# Csus2
Run a-way, I've got to;
Gm A# D#
Get A-way,
Csus2 Gm A# D# Csus2
From the pain you drive in-to the heart of me.
Gm A# D# Csus2
The love we share, seems to,
Gm A# D#
Go no-where.
A# Gm A# D# Csus2
And I've lost my light,
Gm A#
For I toss and turn; I can't sleep at night.
[Chorus]
G A#
Once I ran to you, now I run from you,
D#
This tainted love you've given,
Cm
I give you all a boy could give you.
Csus2
Take my tears and that's not nearly...
Gm A# D# Csus2
All, Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,
Gm A# D# Csus2
Tainted love.
[Verse 2]
Gm A# D# Csus2
Now I know, I've got to;
Gm A# D# Csus2
Run a-way, I've got to;
Gm A# D#
Get A-way.
Csus2 Gm A#
You don't really want any more from me.
Gm A# D#
To make things right,
Csus2 Gm A# D#
You need some-one to hold you tight.
Csus2 Gm A# D#
And you think love is to pray,
Csus2 Gm A#
But I'm sorry, I don't pray that way.
[Chorus]
G A#
Once I ran to you, now I run from you,
D#
This tainted love you've given,
Cm
I give you all a boy could give you.

Take my tears and that's not nearly...

All, Tainted love, oh, oh, oh,

Tainted love.

Gm A# D#
Don't touch me, please,
Csus2 Gm A# D#
I can not stand the way you tease.
Gm A# D#
I love you, though you hurt me so,
Csus2 Gm A#
Now I'm going to pack my things and go.

I made a break I run out yesterday
Tried to find my mountain hideaway
G C D
Maybe next year maybe no go
I know you're watching me every minute of the day yeah
I've seen the signs and the looks and the pictures
They give your game away yeah
G C
There's a dream that strings the road
D
With broken glass for us to hold
G C F
And I cut so far before I had to say
D F
Please please tell me now
A G
Is there something i should know
D F
Is there something I should say
A G
That would make you come my way
G C D
Do you feel the same 'cos you don't let it show
D
People stare and cross the road from me
And jungle drums they all clear the way for me
G C D
Can you read my mind can you see in the snow
And fiery demons all dance
When you walk through that door
Don't say you're easy on me
You're about as easy as a nuclear war
G C
Cos the dream that strings the road
D
With broken glass for us to hold
G C F D
And I got so far before I had to say
D F
Please please tell me now
A G
Is there something I should know
D F
Is there something I should say

That would make you come my way

Do you feel the same 'cos you don't let it show
