[Verse 1]
G Em7
It’s undeniable that we should be together.
C9 Am7 D7
It’s unbelievable, how I used to say that I’d fall never.
G Em7
The basis is ‘need to know’; if you don’t know just how I feel
Fmaj7 Em7 A7 A
Then let me show you that now that I’m for real
Fmaj7 Am7 D7
If all things in time, time will reveal. Yeah.
[Chorus]

One, you’re like a dream come true. Two, just wanna’ be with you.

Four, repeat steps one through three. Five, make you fall in love with me.
Fmaj7 Em A7 D7 G
If ever I believe my work is done, I’ll start back at one.
[Verse 2]
G Em7
It’s so incredible, the way things work themselves out,
C9 Am7 D7
And all emotional, once you know what it’s all about, hey,
G Em7
And undesirable, for us to be apart.
Fmaj7 Em7 A7 A
I never would’ve made it very far,
Fmaj7 Am7 D7
cause you know you got the keys to my heart.
[Chorus]
G Em7
One, you’re like a dream come true. Two, just wanna’ be with you

[Bridge]
Bm C9
Say farewell to the dark of night; I see the coming of the sun.
Bm E7
I feel like a little child whose life has just begun.
Am7 Bm Em
You came and breathed new life into this lonely heart of mine.
Am7 D7
You threw out the lifeline just in the nick of time.

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 need a doctor, doctor
I told the world one day I would pay it back
Say it on tape, and lay it, record it

But I don't even know if I believe it when I'm saying that
Y'all starting to creep in, everyday its so gray and black
Hope, I just need a ray of that
Cause no one see's my vision when I play it for 'em
They just say its wack
But they don't know what dope is
And I don't know if I was awake or asleep
When I wrote this,
All I know is you came to me when I was at my lowest
You picked me up, breath new life in me
I owe my life to you
But for the life of me I don't see why you don't see like I do
But it just dawned on me you lost a son
Demons fighting you, it's dark
Let me turn on the lights and brighten me it'll enlighten you
I don't think you realize what you mean to me
Not the slightest clue
'Cause me and you were like a crew
I was like your sidekick
You gon' either wanna fight me when I get off this fucking mic
Or you gon' hug me
But I'm out of options there's nothing else I can do 'cause
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life
It hurts when I see you struggle
You come to me with ideas
You say there just pieces so I'm puzzled
'Cause the shit I hear is crazy
But your either getting lazy or you don't believe in you no more
Seems like your own opinions, not one you can form
Can't make a decision you keep questioning yourself
Second guessing and its almost like your begging for my help
Like I'm your leader
Your supposed to fucking be my mentor
I can endure no more,
I demand you remember who you are
It was you, who believed in me
When everyone was telling you don't sign me
Everyone at the fucking label, lets tell the truth
You risked your career for me
I know it as well as you
Nobody wanted to fuck with the white boy
Dre, I'm crying in this booth
You saved my life, now maybe its my turn to save yours
But I can never repay you, what you did for me is way more
But I ain't giving up faith and you ain't giving up on me
Get up Dre, I'm dying, I need you, come back for fuck's sake
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
(I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life)
It literally feels like a lifetime ago
But I still remember the shit like it was just yesterday though
You walked in, yellow jump suit
Whole room, cracked jokes
Once you got inside the booth, told you, like smoke
Went through friends, some of them I put on
But they just left, they said they was riding to the death
But where the fuck are they now
Now that I need them, I don't see none of them
All I see is Slim
Fuck all you fair-weather friends
All I need is him
Fucking backstabbers
When the chips were down you just laughed at us
Now you 'bout to feel the fucking wrath of aftermath, fagots
You gon' see us in our lab jackets and ask us where the fuck we been?
You can kiss my indecisive ass crack maggots and the crackers ass
Little crack a jack beat making wack ass backwards producers,
I'm back bastards
One more CD and then I'm packing up my bags and as I'm leaving
I'll guarantee they scream Dre don't leave us like that man 'cause
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life

[Verse 1] E E
Out in the country past the city limits sign
E E
Well there's a honky tonk near the county line
A A E E
The joint starts jumpin' every night when the sun goes down
B B
They got whiskey women music and smoke
B B A E E
It's where all the cowboy folk go to boot scootin' boogie
[Verse 2]
I got a good job I work hard for my money
When it's quittin' time I hit the door runnin'
I fire up my pickup truck and let the horses run
I go flyin' down that highway to that hide-away
B B A E E F# G G#
Stuck out in the woods to do the boot scootin' boogie
[Chorus] A A E
Yeah, heel, toe, dosey doe c'mon baby let's go boot scootin'
A A E E
Woah, Cadillac black jack, baby meet me out back we're gonna boogie
B B A E E
Oh, get down, turn around go to town boot scootin' boogie
[Verse 3]
The bartender asks me, says, "Son what'll it be?"
I want a shot at that redhead yonder lookin' at me
The dance floor's hoppin' and it's hotter than the Fourth of July
I see outlaws, in-laws, crooks and straights all out makin' it shake
Doin' the boot scootin' boogie
[Chorus]
[Outro]
B B A E E
I said, get down, turn around go to town boot scootin' boogie
B N.C. E E
oh, get down, turn around go to town boot scootin' boogie

It's full of sinners and believers,

Learned that happiness on earth,

Her daddy didn't like me much,

Drive by the moonlight,

Talk about what the future might hold,

Down that red dirt road,

You were always the mysterious one

with dark eyes and careless hair,

You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care

Then you stood in my doorway, with nothing to say

besides some comment on the weather

Smoking your cigarettes, talking over coffee
Dm Bb
You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you,

You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones

As I clumsily strummed my guitar
Dm
You'd teach me of honest things
Bb
Things that were daring, things that were clean
F C
Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean
Dm Bb
So I hid my soiled hands behind my back
F C
Somewhere along the line I must've gone off track with you
BRIDGE-
Gm Bb
Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else
F
Somebody who gave a damn,
C
Somebody more like myself

I hope the following will assist!
OK. The numbers on the strings should relate to which finger to use -
't' is thumb, 1,2,3 are 1st, 2nd, 3rd fingers respectively!
So the D chord (xx0232) picked like this
E-------------------|
B-----2-------2-----|
G---1---1---1---1---|
D-t-------t---------|t...... etc
A-------------------|
E-------------------|
The A chord (x02220) like this! nb finger '3' can be left out or played simultaneously with '2'!
E---------------------------|
B-------3-----------3-------|
G-----2---2-------2---2-----|
D---1-------1---1-------1---|
A-t-----------t-------------|t....etc
E---------------------------|
...and so on for the other chords.

Was as fresh as a bright blue sky

Now and then when I see her face

She takes me away to that special place

I'd probably break down and cry

Whoa, Oh, Oh, Oh Sweet love o' mine

She's got eyes of the bluest skies

As if they thought of rain

I hate to look into those eyes

Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place

Where as a child I'd hide

Contemplating where I'm gonna lay you down

Got a nigga fiendin' like Jodeci
Every time that you roll with me, holdin' me

You know, never lettin' go
Never messin' up the flow

we were sure we'd never see an end to it all

Devil Don't Wear Prada
Chorus: Am F7 | Am F7 | C7 B7 | Ab7 2X G7
The devil don't wear prada, she wears Dolce and Gabana
And she is twice as sexy on that second glance
Her touch is Euphoric, a mirage you can't ignore it
But you know you need to put her in the past
Verse: Am | Em | Am | Em | F7 | E7 (2nd time: E7 C#7#9)
She will seclude you in her chamber of love
She will reserve you from the dangers of love
From the cold, cold hearted world outside
But don't mistake this for a home
Soon you'll be left there all alone
and no one will even hear your cry
Chorus
Verse 2: Am | Em | Am | Em | F7 | E7 (2nd time: E7 C#7#9)
Materialistic type of , she wears her stilletos
She buys her Jordans just for kicks, on the week of release
She can't even tell you what minumum wage is
She thinks that money grows on trees, she gets whatever she wants
Even her T-shirts read Armani, or Louis Vuiton
But don't be fooled by the lies she flaunts
Chorus
Bridge: E7 | Am 3X D7 | E7 | Am .. hold F7
Move on, she's coming after you
And if you don't, she's gonna find you, right where you are
So move on, she's seeking out the worst
And she'll pull you in if you don't pull out first
Chorus

1. Friday night you and your boys went out to eat, oh.
Dm Am
Then they hung out, but you came home around three.
Dm Am
If six of y'all went out, ah, then four of you were really cheap,
Dm Am
'cause only two of you had dinner, I found your credit card receipt.
Dm Am
It's not right, but it's okay, I'm gonna make it anyway.
Dm
Pack your bags up and leave,
Am
don't you dare come running back to me.
Dm Am
It's not right, but it's OK, I'm gonna make it anyway.
Dm
Close the door behind you, leave your key,
Am
I'd rather be alone than unhappy.
Dm Am
2. I'll pack your bags so you can leave town for a week, yes. I am.
Dm Am
The phone rings, and then you look at me.
Dm Am
You said it was one of your friends down on 54th St.
Dm Am
So why did 213 show up on your caller I.D.
Dm Am
I've been through all of this before, so how could you think,
Dm
that I would stand around and take some more,
Am
things are gonna change.
Dm Am
I've been through all of this before, that's why you have to leave,
Dm
So don't turn around to see my face,
Am Dm
there's no more fears and tears for you to see.
Am
3. Was it really worth you going out like that, tell me!
Dm Am
See I'm moving on, and I refuse to turn back .
Dm Am
See all of this time I, I thought I had somebody down for me,
Dm Am
it turns out you were making a fool of me.

I took the tube back out of town, back to the rollin' pin
I felt a little like a dying clown with a streak of rin tin tin
I stretched back and I hiccupped and looked back on my busy day
Eleven hours in the tin pan, god, there's got to be another way.
[repeat chorus]
Well, who are you

Oh, who are you

Oh, who the fuck are you

Right there up on Broadway, brought me back to that McDonald's

Took it to my stash spot, Five Sixty Stage street
Catch me in the kitchen like a Simmons whipping pastry

Cruising down 8th street, off white Lexus
Driving so slow but BK is from Texas

Now i live on billboard, and i brought my boys with me

Say what up to Ty Ty, still sipping Malta
Sitting court-side Knicks and Nets give me high fives

Tell by my attitude that I most definitely from

You should know I bleed Blue, but I ain't a crip tho
But I got a gang of n-ggas walking with my click though
F#
welcome to the melting pot, corners where we selling rocks
Afrika Bambaataa sh-t, home of the hip hop

Yellow cap, gypsy cap, dollar cab, holla back
For foreigners it ain't fitted they forgot how to act

Eight million stories out there and their naked
Cities is a pity half of y’all won’t make it

If Jesus payin' LeBron, I’m paying Dwayne Wade

Long live the king yo, I’m from the Empire State that's

Caught up in the in crowd, now your in-style
And in the winter gets cold en vogue with your skin out
Bmaj7
The city of sin is a pity on a whim
Good girls gone bad, the cities filled with them

Mommy took a bus trip and now she got her bust out
Everybody ride her, just like a bus route

Hail Mary to the city your a Virgin
And Jesus can’t save you life starts when the church ends

Intro- F# E B
F#
You got the bullets, I got the gun
E B
I got a hankerin' for gettin' into somethin'
F#
I hit the bottle, you hit the gas
E B
I heard your '65 can really haul some ass
F#
I'm feelin' frisky, you're feelin' good
E B
I guess the whiskey is doin' what it should
F#
I got the cigarettes, you got a lighter
E B
And when the sun goes down we'll start a little fire
A E F#
Ain't no use in tryin' to slow me down
A E B
'Cause you're runnin' with the fastest girl in town
F#
Ain't you baby
You're kinda crazy
F#
My reputation follows me around
E B
Just makes me want to give 'em more to talk about
F#
Let's go to town for a little while

I'll be wearin' nothin' but a tattoo and a smile

Ain't no use in tryin' to slow me down

'Cause you're runnin' with the fastest girl in town

Ain't you baby
You're kinda crazy

Come on

I see the blue lights, we better run

Throw out the bottle, I'll hide the gun

If he pulls us over, I'll turn on the charm

You'll be in the slammer and I'll be on his arm

E B
I got the hankerin' for gettin' into somethin'
E B G#m F#
You took my heart and you held it in your mouth
E B G#m F#
And, with a word all my love came rushing out
E B G#m F#
And, every whisper, it's the worst, emptied out by a single word
E B G#m F#
There is a hollow in me now
E B
So I put my faith in something unknown
G#m F#
I'm living on such sweet nothing
E B
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
G#m F#
I'm living on such sweet nothing
E
And it's hard to learn

And it's hard to love
G#m F#
When you're giving me such sweet nothing
E B
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
G#m F#
You're giving me such sweet nothing
E B G#m F#
E B G#m F#
It isn't easy for me to let it go

Cause

I've swallowed every single word

And

Every whisper, every sigh

Eats away at this heart of mine

And there is a hollow in me now

So I put my faith in something unknown

You're giving me such sweet nothing

(Em... D.... G... Bm....A... continued for the rest of the song)
i learned the hard way
that they all say
things you wanna hear
and my heavy heart
sings deep down under you
and your twisted words
your help just hurts
you were not what i thought you were
hello to high and dry
convinced me to please you
made me think that i need this too
i'm trying to let you hear me as i am
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's
make or break in this
if your on your way
i'm not gonna write you to stay
if all you have is leavin' im'a need a better reason to write you a love song today
promise me
you'll leave the light on
to help me see
(im guessing)- with daylight, my guide, gone (it sounds like something like that..)
'cause i believe there's a way
you can love me because i say
i wont write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one you see
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
is that why you wanted a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one you see
im not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
if your on your way
im not gonna write you to stay
if your heart is no where in it
i dont want it for a minute

when i believe that there's a reason
to write you a love song today

No reason to get excited, the thief, he kindly spoke,
There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke.
But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate,
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.

All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too.
Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl,
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl

I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie
A brand new house on the road side, and it's a-made out of rattlesnake hide
Got a band new chimney that I put on top, and it's a-made out of human skull
Come on take a little walk with me baby, and tell me who do you love?
[chorus 1]
Who do you love?

Around the town I use a rattlesnake whip, take it easy baby don't you give me no lip

Hit a bump and somebody screamed, you should've heard what I'd seen
[chorus 5]
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Yeah who do you love?
Ah, who do you love?
[solo]

Got the good time music and the Bo Diddley beat

Yeah, who do you love?
Ooh, who do you love?
[verse 7]
I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie
A brand new house out on the road side, and it's made out of rattle snake hide

Come on take a little walk with me child, tell me who do you love?

A red rose up in Spanish Harlem.

It is a special one, it's never seen the sun,
It only comes out when the moon is on the run,

And all the stars are gleaming.

It's growing in the street,
Right up through the concrete...
C
But soft and dreaming.

2.There is a rose in Spanish Harlem,
A red rose up in Spanish Harlem,

With eyes as black as coal,
That look down in my soul,
And start a fire, and then I lose control,

I have to beg your pardon.
G
I'm gonna pick that rose and watch her as she grows...
C
In my garden.
REPEAT VERSE 2.

G F
A perfect storm, perfect storm
C Am
Cause once you're mine, once you're mine
No chord
There's no going back
Interlude- [Am] [G/A Am] x2
Mark my words
This love will make you levitate
Like a bird
Like a bird without a cage
But down to earth
If you choose to walk away, don't walk away
It's in the palm of your hand now baby
It's a yes or no, no maybe
So just be sure before you give it all to me
All to me, give it all to me
So you wanna play with magic
Boy, you should know what you're falling for
Baby do you dare to do this?
Cause I'm coming at you like a dark horse
Are you ready for, ready for
A perfect storm, perfect storm
Cause once you're mine, once you're mine (love trippin')
There's no going back
Rap part
(Same chords as the verse)
Uh
She's a beast
I call her Karma (come back)
She eats your heart out
Like Jeffrey Dahmer (woo)
Be careful
Try not to lead her on
Shorty's heart is on steroids
Cause her love is so strong
You may fall in love
When you meet her
If you get the chance you better keep her
She's sweet as pie but if you break her heart
She'll turn cold as a freezer
That fairy tale ending with a knight in shining armor
She can be my Sleeping Beauty
I'm gon' put her in a coma
Woo!
Fmaj
Damn I think I love her
Cmaj
Shorty so bad, I'm sprung and I don't care
Am7
She ride me like a roller coaster
G
Turned the bedroom into a fair (a fair!)
Fmaj
Her love is like a drug
Cmaj
I was tryna hit it and quit it
G
But lil' mama so dope
Am
I messed around and got addicted
Chorus
So you wanna play with magic
Boy, you should know what you're falling for (you should know)
Baby do you dare to do this?
Cause I'm coming at you like a dark horse (like a dark horse)
Are you ready for, ready for (ready for)
A perfect storm, perfect storm (a perfect storm)
Cause once you're mine, once you're mine (mine)
There's no going back
