CHORUS-
If you had my love
And I gave you all my trust
Would you comfort me
And if somehow you knew that your love would be untrue
Would you lie to me
And call me baby
Verse
Now if I gave you me, this is how it's got to be
First of all I won't take you cheatin' on me
Tell me who can I trust if I can't trust in you
And I refuse to let you play me for a fool
You said that we could possibly spend eternity
See that's what you told me (that's what you said)
But if you want me
You have to be fulfilling all my dreams
(If you really want me babe)
CHORUS
Verse
Said you want my love and you've got to have it all
But first there are some things you need to know
If you want to live
With all I have to give
I need to feel true love
Or it's got to end, yeah
I don't want you
Trying to get with me
And I end up unhappy
(Don't need the hurt and I don't need the pain)
So before I do
Give myself to you
I have to know the truth
(If I spend my life with you)

Laying Next to Me
Verse 1-
Must be my imagination, this feeling, this sensation
A serene hallucination, when you're laying next to me
No rules, no limitations, only minor hesitation
Cause I can't resist temptation when you're laying next to me
Chorus-
Every time I see your smiling face
I get a rush, I have to taste you lips,
Your body must be traced
My heart begins to race
Cause you're the only one I see
You're the only one I need
So please forgive me when I can't believe
You're laying next to me
Verse 2-
You're a treasure and a wonder, that I stumbled to discover
A spell I've fallen under and you're laying next to me
I can't help but want to pleasure, feel your body feel the pressure
Take you on a wild adventure when you're laying next to me

When our kiss was brand new
An adventure not perfected
A little hesitant
Let's go back there
Let's take it there
Take it back in time
When forever was a minute, and eternity was a second
I'm stressing that we have to go back there
Let's take it there.
When you
Didn't know me
Didn't need me
Want to touch me
Couldn't leave me
I couldn't know how
Far it would go
I couldn't know if
This was for sure
We just could not
We just could not get enough of it baby, let's go
[Chorus-]
Have that wreckles love
That crazy love
That off the wall won't stop ti'l I get enough kind of love
I need that love
So baby, let's go
Have that wreckless love
That crazy love
That I don't really care
We can have it anywhere
Kind of love
That wreckless love
Ooh baby, let's go
[Chorus-]
Have that wreckles love
That crazy love
That off the wall won't stop ti'l I get enough kind of love
I need that love
So baby, let's go
Have that wreckless love
That crazy love
That I don't really care
We can have it anywhere
Kind of love
That wreckless love

It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Dm F C
since you took your love away
F C
I go out every night and sleep all day
Dm F C
since you took your love away
F C
Since you been gone I can do what-ever I want
Dm F C
I can see whomever I choose
F C
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
Dm A
but nothing, I said nothing can take away these blues
D# Bb
'cos nothing compares
Dm C
nothing compares 2 U.
It's been so lonely without U here
like a bird without a song
nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
tell me baby where did I go wrong?
I could put my arms around every boy I see
but they only remind me of U.
I went to the doctor and guess what he told me guess what he told me
he said- girl U better try to have fun no matter what U do
but he's a fool
'cos nothing compares
nothing compares 2U.
All the flowers that U planted mama
in the back yard
all died when U went away
I know that living with U baby was sometimes hard
but I'm willing 2 give U another try
'cos nothing compares
nothing compares 2U.

LYRICS!!!
Never Let You Go
There's every good reason for letting you go
She's sneaky and smoked out
And it's starting to show
I never let you go
I never let you turn around, our back on each other
That's a good idea, break a promise to your mother
Turn around your back on each other
You say that I've changed
Well maybe I did
But even if I changed
What's wrong with it
I never let you go
I never let you turn around, our back on each other
That's a good idea, break a promise to your mother
Turn around your back on each other
And our friends are gone and gone
And all the time moves on and on
And all I know is it's wrong, it's wrong
If there's a reason, it's lost on me
Maybe we'll be friends, I guess we'll see
I never let you go
I never let you turn around, our back on each other
That's a good idea, break a promise to your mother
Turn around your back on each other
I remember the stupid things, the mood rings, the bracelets and the beads
Nickels and dimes, yours and mine, did you cash in all your dreams
You don't dream for me, no
You don't dream for me, no
But I still feel you pulse like sonar from the days in the waves
That girl is like a sunburn
I would like to save
The girl is like a sunburn
I would like to save
She's like a sunburn

So I went hard like Medusa starin' at me,
I told her, Let's go! Let's blow this lame factory!
She said, What kind of girl do you think that I are?
The kind that you meet in a bar?
You think you can get whatever you want
Cuz you some kind of star...
No, I'm a comet, I
Just want you woman, hey
If I were you it would be me that I'd go home with, 3
The one and only
One thang you ain't considered,
I heard you when you told your girl, Oooh, he can get it...
Admit it!
You did it!
Let's hop a cab, and split it!
I'm kiddin'!
We both goin' to where you livin'!
Ha! I got you gigglin' like a piglet!
Oh, that's the ticket!
I hope you more like Anita Baker than Robin Givens.
No, I don't know that lady so let me quit it,
I'm just style-freein',
Freestylin' which I seldom do,
This is what I'm tellin' you,
To the bed I'm nailin' you,
Like I've been in jail for two,
Years and then they let me loose...
give me the green light
give me just one night
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
we could go all night
give me the green light
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now

There were nights when the wind was so cold
Dm Em
That my body froze in bed
Am
If I just listened to it
Dm F G
Right outside the window
C F
There were days when the sun was so cruel
Dm Em
That all the tears turned to dust
Am
And I just knew my eyes were
Dm F C G
Drying up forever
Em Am F G C
I finished crying in the instant that you left
Em Am F G
And I can't remember where or when or how
Em Am F G Fsus2 G
And I banished every memory you and I had ever made
C
But when you touch me like this
G/B
And you hold me like that
Am7 Dm7
I just have to admit
Fmaj7 Gsus4
That it's all coming back to me
C
When I touch you like this
G
And I hold you like that
Am7 Dm7
It's so hard to believe but
Fmaj7 Gsus4
It's all coming back to me

(It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)
Am7 F
There were moments of gold
Em F
And there were flashes of light
Am7 F
There were things I'd never do again

But then they'd always seemed right
Am Em7
There were nights of endless pleasure
Am F Dm
It was more than any laws allow

Baby Baby

If I kiss you like this

And if you whisper like that
Am7 Dm7
It was lost long ago
Fmaj7 Gsus4
But it's all coming back to me

If you want me like this
G/B
And if you need me like that
Am7 Dm7
It was dead long ago
Fmaj7 Gsus4
But it's all coming back to me
Am7 Dm7
It's so hard to resist
Fmaj7 Gsus4
And it's all coming back to me
Am7 Dm7
I can barely recall
F Dm/G Am
But it's all coming back to me now
G/B C/F F Dm
C F
There were those empty threats and hollow lies
Dm Em
And whenever you tried to hurt me
Am Dm
I just hurt you even worse
F G
And so much deeper
C F
There were hours that just went on for days
Dm Em Am
When alone at last we'd count up all the chances
Dm F C G
That were lost to us forever
Em Am F G C
But you were history with the slamming of the door
Em Am F G
And I made myself so strong again somehow
Em Am F G Fsus2
And I never wasted any of my time on you since then
C
But if I touch you like this
G/B
And if you kiss me like that
Am7 Dm7
It was so long ago
Fmaj7 Gsus4
But it's all coming back to me
C
If you touch me like this
G/B
And if I kiss you like that
Am7 Dm7
It was gone with the wind

But it's all coming back to me

But it's all coming back to me
C
When you see me like this
G/B
And when I see you like that
Am7 Dm7
Then we see what we want to see
Fmaj7 Gsus4
All coming back to me
Am7 Dm7
The flesh and the fantasies
Fmaj7 Gsus4
All coming back to me
Am7 Dm7
I can barely recall
Fmaj7 Gsus4
But it's all coming back to me now

If you forgive me all this

If I forgive you all that
Am7 Dm7
We forgive and forget
Fmaj7 Gsus4
And it's all coming back to me

When you see me like this

Stick with one all the way through the ooh aahs.]

You send me the shiver and the spine that might overflow
You're bringing me closer to the edge, I'm letting go
You're just a hideaway, you're just a feeling
You let my heart escape, beyond the meaning
Putting my head into the clouds I'm floating home
When you can be going I can't find a way to stop
You're just a chance I take to keep on dreaming
You're just another day that keeps me breathing
Ooh, aah, aah, ooh, ooh, aah, aah, ooh
Baby, I love the way that there's nothing sure

You're just a hideaway, you're just a feeling
You let my heart escape, beyond the meaning
Not even I can find a way to stop the storm
Oh baby, it's out of my control what's going on
You're just a chance I take to keep on dreaming
You're just another day, that keeps me breathing
You're a day that keeps me dreaming
Ooh, aah, aah, ooh, ooh, aah, aah, ooh

How I ain't ready for no kid and bye bye to our relationship

[Verse 2](Chords the same as Verse 1]
Sittin here stuck on stupid, tryna figure out
When, what, and how I'mma let this come out of my mouth
Said it ain't gon' be easy
But I need to stop thinkin', contemplatin'
Be a man and get it over with (over with)
I'm ridin' in my whip
Racin' to her place
Talkin' to myself
Preparin' to tell her to her face
She open up the door and didn't want to come near me
I said one second baby please hear me
[Chorus]
[Breakdown](Chords same as chorus)
This by far is the hardest thing I think I've ever had to do
To tell you, the woman I love
That I'm having a baby by a woman that I barely even know
I hope you can accept the fact that I'm man enough to tell you this
And hopefully you'll give me another chance
This ain't about my career
This ain't about my life
It's about us
Please

[Verse 1]
G Bm
I remember when rock was young, me and Susie had so much fun
C D
Holding hands and skimmin' stones had a old gold Chevy & a place of my own
G Bm
But the biggest kick I ever got was doin' a thing called the Crocodile Rock
C D
While the other kids were rockin' 'round the clock we were hoppin' and
boppin' to the Crocodile Rock, well
[Chorus]
Em A7
Crocodile Rockin' is something shockin' when your feet just can't keep still
D7 G
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will.
E A7
Oh, Lawdy mamma those Friday nights when Susie wore her dresses tight and
D7 F C F C F C
the Crocodile Rockin' was out of sight.
[Interlude]
G G Em Em C C D D
[Verse 2]
G Bm
But the years went by and rock just died, Susie went and left me for some foreign guy,
C D
Long nights cryin' by the record machine dreamin' of my Chevy & my old blue jeans but they'll
G Bm
Never kill the thrills we got burnin' up to the Crocodile Rock,
C D
Learning fast as the weeks went past, we really thought the Crocodile Rock would last, well
[Chorus]
Em A7
Crocodile Rockin' is something shockin' when your feet just can't keep still
D7 G
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will.
E A7
Oh, Lawdy mamma those Friday nights when Susie wore her dresses tight and

F Am G F
I was tired of my lady,
Dm C G Dm7 C
we'd been together too long
G F Am G F
like a worn out recording
Dm C Em7 F C
of a favorite song.
Gm F Am G F
So while she lay there sleepin'
Dm C G Dm7 C
I read the paper in bed
Gm F Am G F
and in the personal columns
Dm C Em7 F C
there was this letter I read.
F Am G F
If you like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and gettin' caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
if you're not into yoga
Dm C Em7 F C
if you have half a brain
Gm F Am G F
if you like makin' love at midnight
Dm C G Dm7 C
in the dunes of a cape
Gm F Am G F
then I'm the love that you've looked for
Dm C Em7 F C
write to me and escape.
F | Am G F | Dm | C | G Dm7 C | Gm
F | Am G F | Dm | C | Em7 F C |
F Am G F
I didn't think about my lady,
Dm C G Dm7 C
I know that sounds kind of mean
Gm F Am G F
But me and my old lady
Dm C Em7 F C
had fallen into the same old dull routine
Gm F Am G F
So I wrote to the paper,
Dm C G Dm7 C
took out a personal ad
Gm F Am G F
And though I'm nobody's poet,
Dm C Em7 F C
I thought it wasn't half bad.
F Am G F
Yes, I like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and getting caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
I'm not much into health food,
Dm C Em7 F C
I am into champagne
Gm F Am G F
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon
Dm C G Dm7 C
and cut through all this red tape
Gm F Am G F
At a bar called O'Malley's
Dm C Em7 F C
where we'll plan our escape.
F | Am G F | Dm | C | G Dm7 C | Gm
F | Am G F | Dm | C | Em7 F C |
F Am G F
So I waited with high hopes
Dm C G Dm7 C
and she walked in the place
Gm F Am G F
I knew her smile in an instant,
Dm C Em7 F C
I knew the curve of her face
Gm F Am G F
It was my own lovely lady
Dm C G Dm7 C
and she said, Aw, it's you.
Gm F Am G F
Then we laughed for a moment
Dm C Em7 F C
and I said, I never knew.
F Am G F
That you like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and gettin' caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
And the feel of the ocean
Dm C Em7 F C
and the taste of champagne
Gm F Am G F
If you like making love at midnight
Dm C G Dm7 C
in the dunes on the cape
Gm F Am G F
You're the lady I've looked for,
Dm C Em7 F C
come with me and escape
F | Am G F | Dm | C | G Dm7 C | Gm
F | Am G F | Dm | C | Em7 F C |
F Am G F
If you like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and gettin' caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
if you're not into yoga
Dm C Em7 F C
if you have half a brain
Gm F Am G F
if you like makin' love at midnight
Dm C G Dm7 C
in the dunes of a cape
Gm F Am G F
then I'm the love that you've looked for
Dm C Em7 F C
write to me and escape.
F Am G F
Yes, I like piña coladas

It wasn't like you only talked to him and you know it

All of these things people told me
Keep messing with my head
(Messing with my head)
You should've picked honesty
Then you may not have blown it (Yea..)

Now you tell me you need me
When you call me, on the phone

Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn

Ohhh wo-oh, Ohhh wo-oh
We share something so common
Still so rare, uncommon all
Never been here before
So high, we're still climbing
Even here inside these walls
Breaking each other's hearts
And we don't care cause we're so
In too deep, can't think about giving it up
But I never knew love would feel like a heart attack
It's killing me, swear I never cried so much
Cause I never knew love would hurt this f*ck*n' bad
The worst pain that I ever had
Ohhh wo-oh, never never never knew love (Ohhh wo-oh) would hurt this f*ck*n' bad
The worst pain that I ever had
Outta times when I know I should be smiling
Seems to be the time that I frown the most
Can't believe that we still suffering
Cause i'm slowly breaking down
Even when I hold you close
And if I lose you
I'm afraid I would lose who
I gave my love to
That's the reason I stay around
Even though I fell way
In too deep, can't think about giving it up
But I never knew love would feel like a heart attack
It's killing me, swear I never cried so much
Cause I never knew love would hurt this f*ck*n' bad
The worst pain that I ever had
Ohhh wo-oh, never never never knew love (Ohhh wo-oh) would hurt this f*ck*n' bad
The worst pain that I ever had
And it hurts,
Cause I wanna leave, and you wanna leave
But the loves keeps us together
And if I lose you
I'm afraid I would lose who
I gave my love to
That's the reason I stay around
Even though I fell way
In too deep, can't think about giving it up
But I never knew love would feel like a heart attack
It's killing me, swear I never cried so much
Cause I never knew love would hurt this f*ck*n' bad
The worst pain that I ever had
Ohhh wo-oh, never never never knew love (Ohhh wo-oh) would hurt this f*ck*n' bad
The worst pain that I ever had

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,

Didn't like a thing that I tried on,

But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty,
Dm C-F
Yea she'll take her time, but I don't mind,

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,

So when it finally comes my time,

And I get to the other side,

Outro - G - C
[Verse 1} G C G / C / G / C / G / A / D /
You may think that I'm talking foolish
You've heard that I'm wild & I'm free
You may wonder how I can promise you now
This love that I feel for you always will be
Well you're not just time that I'm killing
I'm no longer one of those guys
As sure as I live this love that I give
Is gonna be yours until the day that I die -- Oh baby
[Chorus]
I'm gonna love you forever, forever & ever amen
As long as old men sit & talk about the weather
As long as old women sit & talk about old men
G C G
If you wonder how long I'll be faithful
C A
I'll be happy to tell you again
C D G Em A D G
I'm gonna love you forever & ever, forever & ever Amen
[Verse 2]
They say time takes it's toll on a body
Makes the young girl's brown hair turn grey
But honey, I don't care, I ain't in love with your hair
And if it all fell out well I'd love you anyway
They say that time can play tricks on a memory
Make people forget things they knew
But it's easy to see it's happening to me
I've already forgotten every woman but you --- Oh darlin'
[Chorus]
I'm gonna love you forever, forever & ever Amen
As long as old men sit & talk about the weather
As long as old women sit & talk about old men
G C G
If you wonder how long I'll be faithful
C A
Just listen to how this song ends
[Outro]
C D G Em A D G
I'm gonna love you forever & ever, forever & ever Amen
I'm gonna love you forever & ever forever & ever
Forever & ever Forever & ever Amen

D5 C Am G C
Uh, Young Money
Am G
I know way too many people here right now
C
That I didn't know last year, who the fuck are y'all?
Am G
I swear it feels like the last few nights
C Am
we been everywhere and back but, I just can't remember it all
G C
What am I doin'? What am I doin'?
Am G
Oh, yeah, that's right, I'm doin' me, I'm doin me
C
I'm livin' life right now, mayne
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
C
But it's far from over
Am G
Yeah, that's right, I'm doin' me, I'm doin me
C
I'm livin' life right now, mayne
Am G
And this what I'ma do 'til it's over, ‘til it's over
Am
But it's far from over

About her, and I wonder
C Bb
How I bought all the lies
Gm Dm
That said that you would treat me right,
C Bb
But you was just a waste of time.
Verse 2- (Main Riff on Acoustic)
Tell me why you're lookin' so confused,
When I'm the one who didn't know the truth.
How could you ever be so cold?
To go behind my back and call my friend,
Boy you must've gone and bumped your head,
Because you left her number on your phone.
(So now after all is said and done,)
Maybe I'm the one to blame, but..
(To think that you could be the one,)
But it didn't work out that way.
Chorus- (Add Chords on Electric)

just a quarter note. The X-X chord changes are very fast. You can listen to the song to

And jungle drums they all clear the way for me

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

VERSE 1-
Em D
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
C
And hope it don't pass him (X3)
CHORUS-
C
Well this is the music
Am Em D
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go
C Am
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
Em D
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo X2
Em, D
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
CHORUS

G7 C
and I need a job so I want to be a pa-per-back writ - er
G7

[Verse 2]

It's the dir-ty sto-ry of a dirt-y man and his cling-ing wife
G7

G7 C
It's a stead-y job but he wants to be a pa-per-back writ-er

[Verse 3]

It's a thousand pag-es give or take a few, I'll be writ-ing more
