F C D# A#
[Verse]
F C
A lonely mother gazing out of her window
D# A#
Staring at a son that she just can't touch
F C
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
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to
F
I know that you're gonna have it your way
C
Or nothing at all
D# A#
But I think you're moving too fast
[Verse]
F C
Little precious has a natural obsession
D# A#
For temptation but he just can't see
F C
She gives him loving that his body can't handle
D# A#
But all he can say is baby it's good to me
F C
One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror
D# A#
But he doesn't recognize his own face
F C
His health is fading and he doesn't know why
D# A#
3 letters took him to his final resting place
Y'all don't hear me?
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to
F
I know that you're gonna have it your way
C
Or nothing at all
D# A#
But I think you're moving too fast
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to
F
I know that you're gonna have it your way
C
Or nothing at all
D# A#
But I think you're moving too fast
Come on, come on
[Verse]
F
I seen a rainbow yesterday
C
But too many storms have come and gone
D#
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
C
For fallin' prey to crime
I say the system got you victim to your own mind
D#
Dreams are hopeless aspirations
A#
In hopes of comin' true believe in yourself the rest is up to me and you
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to
F
I know that you're gonna have it your way
C
Or nothing at all
D# A#
But I think you're moving too fast
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to
F
I know that you're gonna have it your way
C
Or nothing at all
D# A#
But I think you're moving too fast

These are my confessions

Just when I thought I said all I could say

My chick on the side said she got one on the way
C#7
These are my confessions
D# Fm7 C#7
Man I'm thrown and I dont know what to do

I'm so throwed and I don't know what to do
D#
But to give you part 2 of my confessions
[Verse 1]
C#7 C#7
Now this gon' be the hardest thing I think I ever had to do
C#7
Got me talkin' to myself askin' how I'm gon' tell you
C#7
'bout that chick on part 1 I told ya'll I was creepin' with, creepin' with
Said she's 3 months pregnant and she's keepin' it
C#7
The first thing that came to mind was you
C#7
Second thing was how do I know if it's mine and is it true
C#7
Third thing was me wishin' that I never did what I did
C#7
How I ain't ready for no kid and bye bye to our relationship
[Chorus]
[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
Where you been?
Where you been all my life?
Girl you glistening, the way you look in the light
It's obvious that I want something from you
You know what, what I wanna do, do, do
Every time it would bring me to life
I can only imagine, only imagine
What it'll be like
Oh, every time, it would bring me to life
I can only imagine, only imagine
What it'd be like, what it'd be like
What it'd be like, like, like
What it'd be like, like, like
I saw you from afar
Thought I'd say wassup
You can tell me your name, when we wakin' up
They call me Tunechi, I'm good, I'm Gucci
Now you can kiss your old dude goodbye, smooches
You're a beast, you're a beauty
Man I think somebody dun gave Cupid a Uzi, shoot me
You're a firework, brighter in the dark
So lets turn off the lights and give me that spark
Every time it would bring me to life
I can only imagine, only imagine what it'd be like
Oh every time it would bring me to life
I can only imagine, only imagine
What it'd be like, what it'd be like
What it'd be like, like, like
What it'd be like, like, like
I want to let her touch me, one touch will feel free
I want to feel free, she can kiss me
So I can finally be, so I can finally see, so I can finally see
I saw you from afar
Thought I'd say wassup
You can tell me your name, when we wakin' up
They call me Tunechi, I'm good, I'm Gucci
Now you can kiss your old dude goodbye, smooches
You're a beast, you're a beauty
Man I think somebody dun gave Cupid a Uzi, shoot me
You're a firework, brighter in the dark
So lets turn off the lights and give me that spark

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!
Cm
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!)
Tell 'em to shake it! (Shake it!) Shake it! (Shake it!)
Shake that healthy butt!
Baby got back!
(LA face with Oakland booty)
Cm
Baby got back!
[Sir Mix-a-Lot]
Cm
I like 'em round, and big
And when I'm throwin' a gig
I just can't help myself, I'm actin' like an animal
Now here's my scandal
I wanna get you home
And ugh, double-up, ugh, ugh
I ain't talkin' bout Playboy
'Cause silicone parts are made for toys
I want 'em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Mix-a-Lot's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble
So I'm lookin' at rock videos
Knock-kneeded bimbos walkin' like hoes
You can have them bimbos
I'll keep my women like Flo Jo
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
And I'm down to get the friction on
So, ladies! {Yeah!} Ladies! {Yeah}
If you wanna roll in my Mercedes {Yeah!}
Then turn around! Stick it out!
Even white boys got to shout
Baby got back!
Cm
Baby got back!
Yeah, baby ... when it comes to females, Cosmo ain't got nothin'
to do with my selection. 36-24-36? Ha ha, only if she's 5'3.
Cm
So your girlfriend rolls a Honda, playin' workout tapes by Fonda
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
He had game but he chose to hit 'em
And I pull up quick to get wit 'em
So ladies, if the butt is round,
And you want a triple X throw down,
Dial 1-900-MIXALOT
And kick them nasty thoughts
Baby got back!

traffic jams when you're already late
a no smoking sign on your cigarette break

its like meeting the man of your dreams then meeting his beautiful wife

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

i'm not gonna write you a love song

if all you have is leavin' im'a need a better reason to write you a love song today

you'll leave the light on
to help me see

'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
babe ill walk the seven seas
when i believe that there's a reason
to write you a love song today

Start a new relationship with you, this is what you do.

You were like my best friend

The one I used to run and talk to

When me and my girl was having problems

Suggest little nice things I should do

And when I go home at night and lay my head down

Last thing I think about was you and how...
CHORUS

Now what's bad is you're the one that hooked us up
Abmaj7 G
Knowing it should have been you
Cm7 Abmaj7
What's sad is that I love her but I'm falling for you

What should I do?
Cm7
Should I tell my baby bye-bye?
Abmaj7 G
Should I do exactly what I feel inside?
Cm7
Could I, I don't wanna go, don't need to stay
Abmaj7 G
But I really need to get it together

At this point the situation's out of control

[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

Goodbye Norma Jean, though I never knew you at all
E A
You had the grace to hold yourself while those around you crawled
E A
They crawled out of the woodwork and they whispered into your brain
E A
They sent you on a treadmill and they made you change your name
Chorus -
B B7
And it seems to me you lived your life
E A
Like a candle in the wind
E B
Never knowing who to cling to when the rain set in
A C#m
And I would have liked to've known you but I was just a kid
B A E
Your candle burned out long before your legend ever did
Other verses-
Loneliness was tough, the toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar and pain was the price you paid
And even when you died, oh, the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say was that Marilyn was found in the nude
Goodbye Norma Jean, though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself while those around you crawled
Goodbye Norma Jean, from a young man in the twenty second row
Who sees you as something more than sexual, more than just our Marilyn Monroe

B F#m E
And we've got to find other ways to make it alone or keep a straight face.

And i've always lived like this keeping a comfortable, distance.

And up until now i swored to myself that i'm content with loneliness,

Em G
There was a time when I was alone
C G
Nowhere to go and no place to call home
Em G
My only friend was the man in the moon
C G
And even sometimes he would go away to
Em G
Then one night as I closed my eyes
C G
I saw a shadow flying high
Em G
He came to me with the sweetest smile
C G
Told me he wanted to talk for a while
Em G
He said Peter Pan that's what they call me.
C G
I promise that you'll never be lonely.
Am D
And ever since that day
[Chorus]
Em G
I am a lost boy from Neverland
C G
Usually hangin' out with Peter Pan
Em G
And when we're bored we play in the woods
C G
Always on the run from Captain Hook
Em G C G
Run, run, lost boy they say to me
Em G C G
Away from all of reality
Em G
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
C G
And lost boys like me are free
Em G
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
C G
And lost boys like me are free
[Verse 2]
Em G
He sprinkled me in pixie dust and told me to believe
C G
Believe in him, and believe in me
Em G
Together we will fly away in a cloud of green
C G
To your beautiful destiny
Em G
As we soared above the town that never loved me
C G
I realized I finally had a family
Em G
Soon enough we reached Neverland
C G
Peacefully my feet hit the sand
Am D
And ever since that day
[Chorus]

I am a lost boy, from Neverland

Usually hangin' out with Peter Pan

And when we're bored we play in the woods

Always on the run from Captain Hook

I won't lie to you
I know he's just not right for you
And you can tell me if I'm off But I see it on your face
When you say that he's the one that you want
And you're spending all your time In this wrong situation
And anytime you want it to stop
Chorus: I know I can treat you better than he can
And any girl like you deserves a gentleman
Tell me, why are we wasting time
On all your wasted crying
When you should be with me instead?
I know I can treat you better
Better than he can
I'll stop time for you
The second you say you'd like me too
I just wanna give you the loving that you're missing
Baby, just to wake up with you
Would be everything I need, and this could be so different
Tell me what you want to do
Chorus:
Bridge:
Give me a sign
Take my hand, we'll be fine
Promise I won't let you down
Just know that you don't
Have to do this alone
Promise I'll never let you down

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

Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven and dig these rhythm and blues.

It ain't my fault, so don't blame me

I swear I just came here to unwind and have one drink
E A7
The way it looks ain't what you think
E B | E
This Cabernet has a way of vanishing on me

There's a hole in the bottle leaking all this wine

It's already empty and it ain't even supper time

Honey, no, I don't miss him

There's a hole in the bottle of wine

Chorus:
I went and got a new one
'Cause the other one was broken
Now this one's halfway gone
And it's barely even open

You may ask me where it's goin'

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

Intro-
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
Then have no fear, the crowd is here
And the lights are on
And they wanna show oh oh oh oh, yeah
Verse 1-
Yeah, uh
A fresh cool young Lu'
Tryna' catch his microphone check 2, 1, 2
Wanna' believe my own hype but it's too untrue
The world brought me to my knees, what have you brung you?
Did you improve on the design? Did you do somethin' new?
Well ya' name ain't on the guest list, who brung you?
YOU! The more famous person you come through
And the sexy lady next to you, you come too
And then it hit me
Standin' outside of heaven waitin' for god to come and get me
I'm too uncouth
Unschooled to the rules and too gum shoe
Too much of a new comer and too un-cool
Like Shadow and Lavelle, I battle wit' it well
Tho I need holiday like lady who sung Blue
Go back, whatever you did you undo
Heavy as heaven
The devil on me, two ton's too
Chorus-
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
Then have no fear, the camera's is here
And the microphone's
And they wanna' know oh oh oh oh, yeah
Verse 2-
And ya' better wear ya' shaaades
The spotlights here can burn holes through the staaage
Down to the basement pass the Indian graves
Where the dinosaurs laid
Then out through shinin', nearly miss the airliners
Magnified times five, 'less its pointed at the ryhmer
Ricochets off the moon and sets the forest ablaaaze
Now that's important to say
'Cause even with all that most of us don't want it to faaade
We want it to braid, meaning we want it to grow
Meaning we want it to staaay
Like the governor called and he told him to waaait
Un-strap him from the chair and put him back in his caaage
The audience ain't phased
And they ain't gon' clap and they ain't gon' praise
They want everything back that they've paid
'Cause they've been waitin' since ten to see the lights get dim
[Chorus]
Verse 3-
So chauffeur chauffeur come and take me away
'Cause I've been standin' in this line for like five whole days
Me and security ain't getting' along
And when I got to the front, they told me all of the tickets were gone
So just take me home where the mood is mellow
And the roses are grown, M&Ms are yellow
And the light bulbs around my mirror don't flicker
Everybody gets a nice autograph picture
One for you and one for your sister
Who had to work tonight but is an avid listener
Every songs her favorite song and mics don't feedback
All the reviewers say You need to go and see that
And everybody claps 'cause everybody is pleased
And then they all take the stage and start performin' for me
Like, ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha, ha
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

This Pattern can be played through the entire song. You can use a pick pattern or
strum pattern, if you like. Whatever sounds best to you! The original idea was
from Jespersloth, I just changed the D#sus to a regular d# because I think it
sounds better. Enjoy!!!
Fm C#
The wound heals but it never does
G#
That's cause you're at war with love
D#
You're at war with love, yeah
These battle scars, don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle
Never let a wound ruin me
But I feel like ruin's wooing me
Arrow holes that never close from cupid on a shooting spree
Feeling stupid cause I know it ain't no you and me
But when you're trying to beat the odds up
Been trying to keep your nods up and you know that you should know
And let her go but the fear of the unknown
Holding another lover strong sends you back into the zone
With no Tom Hanks to bring you home
A lover not a fighter on the frontline with a poem
Trying to write yourself a rifle
Maybe sharpen up a song
To fight the tanks and drones of you being alone
I wish I never looked, I wish I never touched
I wish that I could stop loving you so much
Cause I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren't the best, the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it'll never be over, until you tell me it's over
These battle scars, don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle
(And just leave then)
You shouldn't have but you said it
(And I hope you never come back)
It shouldn't have happened but you let it
Now you're down on the ground screaming medic
The only thing that comes is the post-traumatic stresses
Shields, body armors and vests
Don't properly work, that's why you're in a locker full of hurt
The enemy within and all the fires from your friends
The best medicine is to probably just let her win
I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
And I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren't the best, the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it'll never be over, until you tell me it's over
These battle scars, don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle
I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
And I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren't the best, the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it'll never be over, until you tell me it's over
Cause you've set me on fire
I've never felt so alive, yeah
Hoping wounds heal, but it never does
That's because you're at war with love
And I'm at the point of breaking
And it's impossible to shake it
See, you hoped the wound heals, but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love
Hope it heals, but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love!
These battle scars, don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change

Verse 1:
Closed off from love I didn’t need the pain
Once or twice was enough And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass Before you know it you’re frozen
But something happened For the very first time with you
My heart melted to the ground Found something true
And everyone’s looking round Thinking I’m going crazy
[Pre-Chorus]
But I don’t care what they say I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
[Chorus] Keep bleeding Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding Keep, keep bleeding love You cut me open
[Verse 2]
Trying hard not to hear But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal Is to keep me from falling
But nothing’s greater Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness I see your face
Yet everyone around me Thinks that I’m going crazy, maybe, maybe
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
F#m
And it’s draining all of me
D
Oh they find it hard to believe
E
I’ll be wearing these scars

For everyone to see

Verse 1: At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong And I learned how to get along
And so you're back From outer space
I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock, I should have made you leave your key
If I'd known for just one second you'd be back to bother me
Chorus: Go on now, go, walk out the door
Just turn around now 'Cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?
You think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I, I will survive
Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
And I've got all my love to give and I'll survive
I will survive, hey, hey
Verse 2: It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
And I spent oh-so many nights just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry But now I hold my head up high
and you see me Somebody new
I'm not that chained-up little person still in love with you
And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free
Well, now I'm saving all my lovin' for someone who's loving me

the fingering may look strange, but its a smooth transition going from the G/E > F#/E >
since all you're doing is just sliding down the fretboard. In addition to the chords,
is a dissonent melody that is played during the intro and the chorus. Again on the
recording a keyboard is used, but it sounds pretty cool on an electic guitar with heavy distortion-
Em G/E F#/E F/E

these 2 bars just repeat over and over. You can mess around in the key of Em like I do create some wicked improvisions. rock on!
