Jade's Key: G Am Em C
Verse 1:
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag /
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin /
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep? /
Six feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing /
Do you know that there's still a chance for you /
Cause there's a spark in you?
Pre Chorus:
You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July
Chorus:
'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down
Verse 2:
You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow
Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know
Pre Chorus:

We had a good love at a good time
But we were too young to know better
The way that we made love, baby made me cry
Thinking that I'd have you forever
C Am Dm G
And tho I've moved on and you have too
Theres still one thing that I won't do
I'll never say I never loved you
C Am F G
Cause I remember getting scared about getting hurt Cause tour was ending
I didn't want to break your heart but couldn't take another ending
I told you it was over but you came right back and told me no
I wont go

Am Em F G
We'd make it through the good and bad
We have a love the kind that lasts
A love that nobody else has ever had

until i came to visit and you sat my on the wing of the plane.
and you gave me your ring

And I hope that we both live up to the cards we were dealt

Staring at a son that she just can't touch

If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side
D# A#
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
F C
But all the praying just ain't helping at all
D# A#
'cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble
F C
So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how
D# A#
Another body laying cold in the gutter
Listen to me
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls

Please stick to the rivers

And the lakes that you're used to

I know that you're gonna have it your way

Little precious has a natural obsession

For temptation but he just can't see

She gives him loving that his body can't handle

But all he can say is baby it's good to me

One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror

I seen a rainbow yesterday

But too many storms have come and gone

Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray
Is it because my life is ten shades of gray?
A#
I pray all ten fade away
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days
F
And like His promise is true
C
Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew
D#
To bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies
A#
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries
F
My only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope
C
With such an endurin' pain
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain
D#
Who's to blame for tootin' 'caine into your own vein?
A#
What a shame you shoot and aim for someone else's brain
F
You claim the insane and name this day in time

For fallin' prey to crime
I say the system got you victim to your own mind

Dreams are hopeless aspirations

In hopes of comin' true believe in yourself the rest is up to me and you

Picture yourself in a boat on a river
with tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A A/G F#m Dm Dm/C
a girl with kaleidoscope eyes.
Bb C F Bb
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green towering over your head.
C G D
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes, and she's gone
[Chorus] G C D
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds. Ah.
[Verse 2] A A/G A/F# A/F
Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies.
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
A A/G F#m Dm Dm/C
that grow so incredibly high.
Bb C F Bb
Newspaper taxis appear on the shore, waiting to take you away.
C G D
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds, and you're gone.
{Chorus ] G C D
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds. Ah.
A A/G A/F# A/F
Picture yourself on a train in a station
With Plasticine porters with looking-glass ties
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile

The girl with kaleidoscope eyes

Verse-
Am C G D
Hey girl, is he everything you wanted in a man?
Am
You know I gave you the world
C G D
You had me in the palm of your hand
Am
So why your love went away
C G D
I just can't seem to understand
Am
Thought it was me and you babe
C G
Me and you until at the end
D
But I guess I was wrong
Pre Corus;
Am
Don't want to think about it
C
Don't want to talk about it
G
I'm just so sick about it
D Am
Can't believe it's ending this way
Just so confused about it
C
Feeling the blues about it
G
I just can't do without ya
D Am
Tell me is this fair?
Corus-
C G
Is this the way it's really going
D Am
Is this how we say goodbye?
C G
Should've known better when you came around
D Am
That you were gonna make me cry
C G
It's breaking my heart to watch you run around
D Am
'Cause I know that you're living a lie
C G D
That's okay baby 'cause in time you will find...
Am C
What goes around, goes around, goes around
G D
Comes all the way back around
Am C
What goes around, goes around, goes around
G D
Comes all the way back around
Am C
What goes around, goes around, goes around
G D
Comes all the way back around
Am C
What goes around, goes around, goes around
G D
Comes all the way back around
Repeat....Same Thing
Now girl, I remember everything that you claimed
You said that you were moving on now
And maybe I should do the same
Funny thing about that is
I was ready to give you my name
Thought it was me and you, babe
And now, it's all just a shame
And I guess I was wrong
Repeat Pre corus And Corus
Am C D
What goes around comes around.
Am C
What goes around comes around
G D
You shouldn't know that
What goes around comes around
You shouldn't know that
Repeat Pre corus and Corus
Am
You spend your nights alone
C
And he never comes home
G
And every time you call him
D
All you get's a busy tone
Am
I heard you found out
C
That he's doing to you
G
What you did to me
D
Ain't that the way it goes
Same thing-
You cheated girl
My heart bleeds girl
So it goes without saying that you left me feeling hurt
Just a classic case
A scenario
Tale as old as time
Girl you got what you deserved
D Am C G
And now you want somebody
To cure the lonely nights
You wish you had somebody
That could come and make it right
D Am
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey

Oh, my, god. Becky, look at her butt.
It is so big. [scoff] She looks like,
one of those rap guys' girlfriends.
But, you know, who understands those rap guys? *scoff*
They only talk to her, because,
she looks like a total prostitute, 'kay?
[bass ostinato]
I mean, her butt, is just so big.
I can't believe it's just so round, it's like,
out there, I mean - gross. Look!
She's just so ... black!

I like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, wanna pull out your tough
'Cause you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh baby, I wanna get with you
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But that butt you got makes me so horny
Ooh, Rump-o'-smooth-skin
You say you wanna get in my Benz?
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average groupie
I've seen them dancin'
To hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet,
Got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' flat butts are the thing
Take the average black man and ask him that
She gotta pack much back
So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Has your girlfriend got the butt? (Hell yeah!)

A word to the thick soul sisters, I wanna get with ya
I won't cuss or hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna *fuck*
Till the break of dawn
Baby got it goin' on
A lot of simps won't like this song
'Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
And I'd rather stay and play
'Cause I'm long, and I'm strong

But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My anaconda don't want none
Unless you've got buns, hun
You can do side bends or sit-ups,
But please don't lose that butt
Some brothers wanna play that hard role
And tell you that the butt ain't gold
So they toss it and leave it
And I pull up quick to retrieve it
So Cosmo says you're fat
Well I ain't down with that!
'Cause your waist is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' bout stickin'
To the beanpole dames in the magazines-
You ain't it, Miss Thing!
Give me a sister, I can't resist her
Red beans and rice didn't miss her
Some knucklehead tried to dis
'Cause his girls are on my list

Verse 1: C | Am | D | E7 G
I know when he's been on your mind
That distant look is in your eyes
I thought with time you'd realize it's over, over
It's not the way I choose to live
And somethin' somewhere's gotta give
A share in this relationship gets older, older
Pre Chorus: F

Verse 2:
There are time it seems to me
I'm sharing you with memories

Those times I don't believe it's right I know it, know it
F
Don't make me promises baby

[Verse 1]
Am F
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Am F
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall
Am F
She sees the bartender in a pool of blood
Am F
Cries out My God they killed them all!
C F
Here comes the story of the Hurricane,
G C F
The man the authorities came to blame
Dm C
For something that he never done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell but one time
Am F C G
He could have been the champion of the world
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 2]
Am F
Three bodies lyin’ there does Patty see
Am F
And another man named Bello, movin’ around mysteriously
Am F
I didn’t do it, he says, and he throws up his hands
Am F
I was only robbin’ the register, I hope you understand
C F
I saw them leavin’, he says, and he stops
G C F
One of us had better call up the cops
Dm C
And so Patty calls the cops
Dm C Em
And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin’
Am F C G
In the hot New Jersey night
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 3]
Am F
Meanwhile, far away in another part of town
Am F
Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin’ around
Am F
Number one contender for the middleweight crown
Am F
Had no idea what kinda shit was about to go down
C F
When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road
G C F
Just like the time before and the time before that
Dm C
In Paterson that’s just the way things go
Dm C Em
If you’re black you might as well not show up on the street
Am F C G
’Less you wanna draw the heat
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 4]
Am F
Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops
Am F
Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowlin’ around
Am F
He said, I saw two men runnin’ out, they looked like middleweights
Am F
They jumped into a white car with out-of-state plates
C F
And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head
G C F
Cop said, Wait a minute, boys, this one’s not dead
Dm C
So they took him to the infirmary
Dm C Em
And though this man could hardly see
Am F C G
They told him that he could identify the guilty men
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 5]
Am F
Four in the mornin’ and they haul Rubin in
Am F
Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs
Am F
The wounded man looks up through his one dyin’ eye
Am F
Says, Wha’d you bring him in here for? He ain’t the guy!
C F
Yes, here’s the story of the Hurricane
G C F
The man the authorities came to blame
Dm C
For somethin’ that he never done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
Am F C G
The champion of the world
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 6]
Am F
Four months later, the ghettos are in flame
Am F
Rubin’s in South America, fightin’ for his name
Am F
While Arthur Dexter Bradley’s still in the robbery game
Am F
And the cops are puttin’ the screws to him, lookin’ for somebody to blame
C F
Remember that murder that happened in a bar?
G C F
Remember you said you saw the getaway car?
Dm C
You think you’d like to play ball with the law?
Dm C Em
Think it might-a been that fighter that you saw runnin’ that night?
Am F C G
Don’t forget that you are white
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 7]
Am F
Arthur Dexter Bradley said, I’m really not sure
Am F
Cops said, A poor boy like you could use a break
Am F
We got you for the motel job and we’re talkin’ to your friend Bello
Am F
Now you don’t wanta have to go back to jail, be a nice fellow
C F
You’ll be doin’ society a favor
G C F
That sonofa is brave and gettin’ braver
Dm C
We want to put his ass in stir
Dm C Em
We want to pin this triple murder on him
Am F C G
He ain’t no Gentleman Jim
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 8]
Am F
Rubin could take a man out with just one punch
Am F
But he never did like to talk about it all that much
Am F
It’s my work, he’d say, and I do it for pay
Am F
And when it’s over I’d just as soon go on my way
C F
Up to some paradise
G C F
Where the trout streams flow and the air is nice
Dm C
And ride a horse along a trail
Dm C Em
But then they took him to the jailhouse
Am F C G
Where they try to turn a man into a mouse
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 9]
Am F
All of Rubin’s cards were marked in advance
Am F
The trial was a pig-circus, he never had a chance
Am F
The judge made Rubin’s witnesses drunkards from the slums
Am F
To the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum
C F
And to the black folks he was just a crazy er
G C F
No one doubted that he pulled the trigger
Dm C
And though they could not produce the gun
Dm C Em
The D.A. said he was the one who did the deed
Am F C G
And the all-white jury agreed
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 10]
Am F
Rubin Carter was falsely tried
Am F
The crime was murder one, guess who testified?
Am F
Bello and Bradley and they both baldly lied
Am F
And the newspapers, they all went along for the ride
C F
How can the life of such a man
G C F
Be in the palm of some fool’s hand?
Dm C
To see him obviously framed
Dm C Em
Couldn’t help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
Am F C G
Where justice is a game
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 11]
Am F
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties
Am F
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
Am F
While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell
Am F
An innocent man in a living hell
C F
That’s the story of the Hurricane
G C F
But it won’t be over till they clear his name
Dm C
And give him back the time he’s done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
Am F C G
The champion of the world
[Verse 1] G C
If I could buy a house on Memory Lane
I'd put my money down and I'd sign my name
On that little corner lot where it don't ever rain
And we'd stay good as new like a fresh coat of paint C
You'd be mine in the shine of a front porch light
Yeah, I might as well live there, baby
That's where I spend most of my time
[Chorus] D Em
Thinkin' 'bout those sunsets that bled into jean jacket nights
C G
Those tangled up mornings lost in paradise
D Em
Still drunk on the feeling when I close my eyes
C
You're pulling me closer, your head on my shoulder
We'd never let go and we'd never be over
[Verse 2] G C
If I could buy a house on Memory Lane
I wouldn't have to wonder if you miss me the same
I'd be loving you as usual, telling you you're beautiful
Oh, I'd be happily delusional
[Chorus]
[Guitar Solo] G C G C
[Chorus]
[Outro] G C
If I could buy a house on Memory Lane
I'd put my money down and I'd sign my name
On that little corner lot where it don't ever rain
And baby, me and you, we'd never fade, never fade
C
We'd never fade
G C G
Never fade, never fade
G D Em7 Cadd9
Everytime our eyes meet, this feeling inside me Is almost more than I can take
Baby when you touch me, I can feel how much you love me And it just blows me away
Bb F Gm7 Eb
I've never been this close to anyone or anything I can hear your thoughts, I can see your dreams...
[Chorus] C G Am F 2X
I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you, it just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life with you by my side
Forever and ever
Eb F G
Every little thing that you do Baby I'm amazed by you
[Verse] G D Em7 Cadd9
The smell of your skin, the taste of your kiss The way you whisper in the dark
Your hair all around me, baby you surround me You touch every place in my heart
Bb F Gm7 Eb
Oh, it feels like the first time everytime
I wanna spend the whole night in your eyes...
Chorus: [Solo] G Bb F G Bb F C
[Outro] (F) G Am F
Every little thing that you do
I'm so in love with you, it just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life with you by my side Forever and ever
Eb F
Every little thing that you do
Eb F
Every little thing that you do
N.C. G Baby I'm amazed by you
[Verse 1- King Chip]
I'm just what you made God - not many I trust
I'mma go my own way, God, take my fate to wherever you want
I'm out here, on my son, won't stop 'til I get me some
Club-hoppin', tryin' to get me some, bad es wanna get me sprung

In Case You Don't
Verse 1-
Woke up early this morning for no particular reason
I glanced over to your side, you're captivating when your dreaming
Seeing that smile on your face puts a smile on my face
You're so addicting that sometimes I catch myself not breathing
I'd hate to disturb you but damn you make me want you make me want you so bad
I can't live without you, it's imperative you always know that
Can't control myself around you, baby I'm so glad that I found you
Here with you, there's no other place I'd rather be at
Pre Chorus-
And I know sometime I may not always treat you right
But now, I am watching you peaceful and I vow with all my life
Tonight, I'm gonna make it right
Chorus-
Cause baby you're the one that I've been searching all my life for
How could I ever ask for more
And when the lights go down it's you that I am after
I know we both know, but in case you don't
Verse 2-
Baby here I am to show you all the things I've never shown you
I'll be here till the end, your lover and your best friend
I will be here when you need me, baby I'll be here completely
You've got me hooked on your love and every word that you have said
So here's to you my love, the only one I want in my life
You are the air I breathe the single brightest star in my sky
If you were to hesitate, I wouldn't care how long the wait
I will be standing here until the day that I can call you all mine
Pre Chorus-
Solo-
Woke up early this morning for no particular reason
I glanced over to your side, you're captivating when your dreaming
You and me together thought the days and night
I don't worry cause everything's gonna be alright
No one, No one, No one, can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, No one, No one, can get in the way of what I'm feeling

I Feel So Unsure
Famj7
As i take your hand

As the music dies

Something in your eyes

Calls to mind a silver screen

And all its sad goodbyes

I'm never gonna dance again
Dm
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Fmaj7
Though it's easy to pretend

I know you're not a fool

I should have known better than to cheat a friend

And waste a chance that i've been given
Fmaj7
So i'm never gonna dance again

The way i danced with you
Am Dm
Time can never mend
Fmaj7 E E7 E* E7
The careless whisper of a good friend

To the heart and mind

Ignorance is kind

Tonight the music seems so loud
Dm
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Fmaj7
Maybe it's better this way

We'd hurt each other with the things we want to say

We could have been so good together

We could have lived this dance forever

But now who's gonna dance with me

Please stay

Hey yo we're doing this for the people that love it,
And good music it'll never be done with,
The Train Walkers, you could find us in public,
And you already know we gonna keep it 100
Chorus: Jade

Good music it'll never be done with,

Rap Lex (8 bars)
Keep it A1 with my day onesLinking to bump Raekwon /
Older gods like pagans
We don't run with fake ones / We don't buck with ray guns /
They bring ya down and weigh tons /
You know the classic saying How you get the cake up /
Location, location, location
So we stay on the trains and making the money and play in /
Then reinvest in our legionKeep it a buck for the reup
So everytime we meet upWe got the fuel to heat up
Verse 1: Adrian
Now you could find us underground, or above it,
As we're singing a song to sing along with,
And yo the only plan we have is keep on winning,
As we keep it 100 just like the beats per minute, /
And speaking of winning yo this is just the beginning
and we don't need recognition just need the people to listen, /
I'm talking music from the soul
with a little bit of country, rap, and rock and roll let's go
Chorus:
This is for the people who love it,
Good music it'll never be done with,
Train Walkers you could find us in public,
You already know that we gonna keep it 100
RAP LEX (8 bars)
Queens get the money like a Nas venture capital
Juicy good and plenty all the strategies is tactical /
Don't care if you simpatio Only got the nano flow
Small and don't hold weightUsed to rob six packs /
What I call a cold caseNo killer but stone face
A true teenage dirt bagSmoked out on the burnt ends /T
ried to play the merchant but couldn't put the work in
Now I'm cooking terpenes 100 for certain
Verse 2
Yeah we gonna keep it 100,as we're keeping it real, /
And we gonna keep on performing with or without a record deal, /
Yeah,and even though I know that it's a challenge
imma try to keep my balance as I rap it in spanish, /
Y cada vez que yo rapeo adentro yo siento fuego,
Combinando el estilo caballero y callejero, /
Y te prometo que dinero no es primero pero,
Para hacer cambio, Es necesario
Chorus:
This is for the people who love it /
Good music it'll never be done with,
Train Walkers you could find us in public/
You already know that we gonna keep it 100

Found myself at your door,

And everything feels be

There things we won´t recall
Feelings well never find

More important to say
But I love you, wasn't one of those things
And nao its too late
Do you remember... ?

Now, the king told the boogie men,
G7 Dm7
--More--(4%)
you have to let that raga drop.
A7 Em7
The oil down the desert way
G7 Dm7
has been shaking to the top.
A7 Em7
The sheik he drove his cadillac
G7 Dm7
he went a cruisin down the ville.
A7 Em7
The Muezzin was a standing
Fmaj7
On the radiator grille.
chorus-
Dm7 A7 G7
Shareef don't like it.
Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 A7
Rock the Casbah. Rock the Casbah.
Dm7 A7 G7
Shareef don't like it.
Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 A7
Rock the Casbah. Rock the Casbah.
By order of the prophet
We ban that boogie sound.
Degenerate the faithful
With that crazy Casbah sound.
But the Bedouin, they brought out the electric camel drum.
The local guitar picker got his guitar picking thumb.
As soon as the Shareef had cleared the square,
They began to wail.
Chorus
Now over at the temple
Oh, they really pack em in.
The in crowd say it's cool
To dig this chanting thing.
But as the wind changed direction
and the temple band took five
The crowd got a whiff
Of that crazy casbah jive.
Chorus
The king called up his jet fighters,
He said, you better earn your pay.
Drop your bombs down between the minarets
Down the casbah way.
As sson as the Shareef was chauffered out of there,
The jet pilote tuned to the cockpit radio blare.
As soon as the Shareef was outta their hair
The jet pilots wailed.
Chorus to extro.
Just strum C#m-B-E-A throughout the whole song =)) NO CAPO NEEDED
I hear your heart beat to the beat of the drums
Oh what a shame that you came here with someone
So while you're here in my arms
Let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die young
We're gonna die young

Let's make the most of the night like we're gonna die young

That magic in your pants, it's making me blush (for sure)
