1st verse-
G D
He spends his nights in California,
Em C
Watching the stars on the big screen
G D
Then he lies awake and he wonders,
Em C
Why can't that be me?
G
Cause in his life he's filled
D
With all these good intentions
Em
He's left a lot of things
C G
He'd rather not mention right now
D
But just before he says goodnight,
Em C
He looks up with a little smile at me,
And he says...
chorus-
G D
If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Em C
Just to live one day, in those shoes
G D
If I could be like that,
Em
What would I do,
C
What would I do?
2nd verse-
G D
She spends her days up in the north park,
Em C
Watching the people as they pass
G
And all she wants is just
D
A little piece of this dream,
Em C
Is that too much to ask?
G D
With a safe home, and a warm bed,
Em C
On a quiet little street
G D
All she wants is just that something to
Em C
Hold onto, that's all she needs
Yeah!

Capo 3
Am G
It may not mean nothing to y'all
F
but understand nothing was done for me
Am
So I don't plan on stopping at all
I want this sh-t forever man, ever man, ever man
G
I'm shutting sh-t down at the mall
F
And telling every girl she the one for me
Am
And I aint even planning to call
I want this sh-t forever man, ever man, ever man
Am
Last name ever first name greatest
Like a sprained ankle boy ain't nothing to play with
It started off local but thanks to all the haters
I know G4 pilots on a first name basis
And your city faded off to brown, Nino
She insists she got more class, we know
Swimming in the money come and find me, nemo
If I was at the club you know I ball, Kimo
Drop the mixtape that sh-t sounded like an album
Who'd have thought a country wide tour would be the outcome
Labels want my name but sign the x like Malcom
Everybody got a deal, I did it without one
Yeah n-gga i'm about my business
Killing all these rappers you would swear I had a hit list
Everybody who doubted me is asking for forgivness
If you aint been a part of it at least you got to witness, b-tches
Chorus
Am
I used to have hood dreams, big fame, big chains
I stuck my d-ck inside this life until that b-tch came
I went hard all fall like the ball teams
Just so I can make it rain all spring
Y'all seen my story my glory
I had raped the game young, you can call it statutory
when a n-gga blow up they can build statures from me
Old money Benjamin Button, what, nuttin
Now superbad chicks giving me MacLovin
You would think I ran the world like Michelle's husband
You would think these n-ggas would know me when they really doesn't
Like they was down with the old me no you f-cking wasn't
Your'E such A F-cking loser
He didn't even go to class, Bueller
Trade the Grammy plaques just to have my granny back
Remember she had that bad hip like a fanny pack
Chasing that stardom would turn you into a maniac
All the way in Hollywood and I can't even act
They pull their cameras out and God damn they snap
I used to want this thing forever you can have it back
Chorus
Am
Okay, hello its da martian, space jam Jordan's
I want this sh-t forever, wake and smell the garden
Fresher than the harvest, step up to the target
If I had one guess than I guess I'm just New Orleans
And I will never stop like I'm running from the cops
Hop up in my car and told my chauffeur to the top
Life is like a f-cking roller coaster then it drops
But what should I scream for this is my theme park
My minds shine even when my thoughts seem dark
Pistol on my side you don't wanna hear that thing talk
Let the king talk check the price and pay attention
Lil Wayne, thats what they got to say or mention
I'm like Nevada in the middle of the summer
I'm resting in the lead I need a pillow and a cover
shhh, my foots sleeping on the gas
No brake pads no such thing as last
Chorus
Am
There they go, back in stadiums, it's shady's b-tches flow,
Nuts they go, macadamia they go sablistic yo,
We can make them look like boso's, he's wondering if he should spit this slow,
F-ck no go for broke, his cup just wanna throw over, oh no,
He aint had a buzz like this since the last time he overdosed,
They've been waiting patiently for Pinnochio to poke his nose,
Back into the game and they know, rap will never be the same as before,
Bashing in the brains of these hoes, and establishing a name as he goes,
The passion of the flame is ignited, you can't put it out once we light it,
This sh-t is exactly what the f-ck I'm talking about when we riot,
You dealing with a few true villains, who stayin inside the boots you spillin
And spit true feelings, til our tooth fillings come flying up out of our mouths now rewind it
Payback muthaf-cka for the way you got at me so how's it taste
When I slap the taste out your mouth with the bass so loud that it shakes the place,
I'm hannibal lecters son just in case your thinking of saving face,
You ain't gonna have no face to save by the time Im through with this place, so Drake

Verse 1: We'll do it all, everything, on our own.
We don't need, anything, or anyone.
Half Chorus: If I lay here, if I just lay here
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
Verse 2: I don't quite know, how to say, how I feel
Those three words, I said too much, but not enough.
Full Chorus:
If I lay here, if I just lay here
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
Forget what we're told, before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.
Verse 3: Let's waste time, chasing cars, around our heads.
I need your grace, to remind me, to find my own.
Full Chorus:

Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where, confused about how as well
just know that these things will never change for us at all.

Womb To Tomb
Verse 1
Lay down you gun, lay down your god
We are but germs on one big rock
The universe is spreading thin
It's up to us to bring it in
My suicide as sacrifice
Would keep the secret locked inside
And so I breathe my second life
Living proof, that love survives
Chorus-
Your life is not your own
From womb to tomb you are bound to others
3X
Verse 2-
There is no I, there is only we
So soon shall this whole wide world see
Around the sun which we believe
Take all but only what you need
Please take these words to paradise
Show them there is more than one good life
We are all one, once every time
We ask why
Chorus
Bridge-
We are here
We are now
We are this moment
We are loud
We are the answer
Of love you're after
There is no one son of god
We all are

Prechorus- |A |A |C |D |
Here are the words
It's getting so lonely inside this bed
Don't know if I should lick my wounds
Or say woe is me instead
And there's an aching inside my head
It's telling me I'm better off alone
But after midnight, morning will come
And the day will see if you will get some
They say that girl ya know she act too tough tough tough
Well it's 'til I turn off the light, turn off the light
They say that girl ya know she act so rough rough rough
Well it's 'til I turn off the light, turn off the light
And I say follow me follow me follow me down down down down
'Til you see all my dreams
Not everything in this magical world is what it seems
I looked above the other day
Cuz I think I'm good and ready for a change
I live my life by the moon
If it's high play it low
If it's harvest go slow
And if it's full, then go
But after midnight, morning will come
And the day will see if you will get some
Chorus
I'm searching for things that I just cannot see
Why don't you don't you don't you come and be with me
I pretend to be cool with me, want to believe
That I can do it on my own without my heart on my sleeve
I'm running, I'm running, catch up with me life
Where is the love that I'm looking to find
It's all in me, can't you see
I can see, can't you see
I can see, why can't you see
It's all in me!
Chorus
Where is your logic
Who do you need
Where can you turn in your delicate time of need
Where is your logic
Who do you need
Where can you turn in your delicate time of need

[Verse] G
When the sun goes down on my side of town
That lonesome feelin' comes to my door
C G
An' the whole world turns... blue
G
There's a rundown bar across the railroad tracks
I got a table for two, way in the back
C G
Where I sit alone... and I think of losin' you
D G
I spend most every night beneath the light of a neon moon
[Chorus] C D
Now, if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams dance in and out of the beams
G
Of a neon moon.
[Verse] G
I think of two young lovers a-runnin' wild and free
I close my eyes and sometimes see
C G
You in the shadows of this smoke-filled room
G
No tellin' how many tears I've sat here and cried
Or how many lies that I've lied
C G
Tellin' my poor heart she'll come back someday
D G
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon
[Chorus]
[Verse] G
The jukebox plays on drink by drink
And the words to ev'ry sad song seem to say what I think
C G
And this hurt inside of me, it ain't never gonna end
D G
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon
[Chorus]
Am F C G (x2)
Am F C G Am F C G
So your standing in the middle of a thunder and lighting
Am F C G Am F C G
And I know your feeling like you just can't win but your trying

Its hard to keep on keepin on when your bein pushed around
F C
Dont even know which way is up, you just keep spinning down around and down
(Chorus)
Am F C G
Every storm runs, runs out of rain
Am F C G
Just like every dark night turns into day

Em Em6
Just a small town girl on a Saturday night
Em7 Em(maj7)
Looking for the fight of her life
C Cadd9
in the real time world no one sees her at all
Cadd9(13) B7sus4 B7
they all say she's crazy
Locking rhythm to the beat of her heart
Changing movement into light
She had danced into the danger zone
When the dancer becomes the dance
[Pre-Chorus]
A7* B7* C*
It can cut you like a knife if the fight becomes the fire
B7(b13) B7
On the wire between will and what will be

She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
C* Dsus4 Em*
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
C* Dsus4 Em*
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
C* Dsus4 A9
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
[Verse]
On the ice blue line of insanity
is a place most never see
It's a hard won place of mystery
touch it but can't hold it
You work all your life, for that moment in time
It could come or pass you by
it's a push shove world but there's always a chance
if the hunger stays the night
[Pre-Chorus]
There's a cold kinetic heat struggling stretching for the peak
Never stopping with her head against the wind
[Chorus]
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor (I sure know)
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor (I sure know)
And she's dancing like she's never danced before

She's a maniac, maniac on the floor (I sure know)
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor (I sure know)
And she's dancing like she's never danced before

And she's dancing like she's never danced before...

First things first I'ma say all the words inside my head
I'm fired up and tired of The way that things have been, oh-ooh
The way that things have been, oh-ooh
Second thing second Don't you tell me what you think that I could be
I'm the one at the sail I'm the master of my sea, oh-ooh
The master of my sea, oh-ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
I was broken from a young age Taking my sulkin' to the masses
Writing my poems for the few That look at me, took to me, shook at me, feelin' me
Singing from heartache from the pain Taking my message from the veins
Speaking my lesson from the brain Seeing the beauty through the...
[Chorus]
Pain! You made me a, you made me a Believer, believer
Pain! You break me down and build me up Believer, believer
Pain! Oh, let the bullets fly, oh, let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from…
Pain! You made me a, you made me a Believer, believer
[Verse 3]
Third things third Send a prayer to the ones up above
All the hate that you've heard Has turned your spirit to a dove, oh-ooh
Your spirit up above, oh-ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
I was chokin' in the crowd Building my rain up in the cloud
Falling like ashes to the ground Hoping my feelings, they would drown
But they never did, ever lived, ebbin' and flowin'
Inhibited, limited 'til it broke open and rained down
It rained down, like…
[Chorus]
[Verse 4]
Last things lastBy the grace of the fire and the flames
You're the face of the futureThe blood in my veins, oh-ooh
The blood in my veins, oh-ooh
[Pre-Chorus] But they never did, ever lived, ebbin' and flowin'
Inhibited, limited 'til it broke open and rained down It rained down, like…

You act like you ain't hear him then gave him a little trim

To begin, how you think you really gon' pretend

Plus when you give it up so easy you ain't even fooling him

If you did it then, then you probably f*** again

Talking out your neck sayin' you're a Christian
A Muslim sleeping with the gin

Eb Cm Ab Eb
Eb Cm
When I was in the third grade I thought I was gay
Ab Eb
'Cause I could draw, an' my uncle was, and I kept my room straight
Eb Cm
I told my mom tears rushing down my face
Ab Eb
She's like Ben you've loved girls since before pre-k, trippin'
Eb Cm
Yea I guess she had a point didn't she?
Ab Eb
Bunch of stereotypes all in my head.
Eb Cm
I remember doing the math like, yea I'm good at little league
Ab Eb
A preconceived idea of what it all meant
(repeat progression)
For those that liked the same sex
Had the characteristics
The right wing conservatives think it's a decision
And you can be cured with some treatment and religion
Man made rewiring of a predisposition
Playing god, aw nah here we go
America the brave still fears what we don't know
And god loves all his children, is somehow forgotten
But we paraphrase a book written thirty-five-hundred years ago
I don't know
Eb Eb Eb/C Eb/Ab Eb
And I can't change
Eb Eb/C
Even if I tried
Ab Eb
Even if I wanted to
Eb
I'm acting strange

If I was gay, I would think hip-hop hates me
Cm/Ab Eb
Have you read the YouTube comments lately
Eb Ebsus4/F Eb/G Cm
Man, that's gay get dropped on the daily
Ab Ab6 Ab7 Eb
We become so numb to what we're saying
Eb Cm
A culture founded from oppression, yet we don't have acceptance for 'em
Ab Eb
Call each other faggots behind the keys of a message board
Eb Cm
A word rooted in hate, yet our genre still ignores it
Ab Eb
A gay is synonymous with the lesser
Eb Cm
It's the same hate that's caused wars from religion
Ab Eb
Gender to skin color, the complexion of your pigment
(repeat progression)
The same fight that led people to walk outs and sit ins
It's human rights for everybody, there is no difference!
Live on and be yourself
When I was at church they taught me something else
If you preach hate at the service those words aren't anointed
That holy water that you soak in has been poisoned
Eb Eb/C
When everyone else is more comfortable remaining voiceless
Cm/Ab Cm7/Bb
Rather than fighting for humans that have had their rights stolen
Eb Gm7
I might not be the same, but that's not important
Ab Eb
No freedom till we're equal, damn right I support it
Eb Eb/C Eb/Ab Eb
Eb Eb/C Ab Eb
(repeat)
And I can't change
Even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
My love
My love
My love
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
Eb Cm
And press play, don't press pause
Ab Eb
Progress, march on
Eb
With the veil over our eyes
Cm
We turn the back on the cause
Ab Eb
Till the day that my uncles can be united by law
When kids are walking 'round the hallway plagued by pain in their heart
A world so hateful some would rather die than be who they are
And a certificate on paper isn't gonna solve it all
But it's a damn good place to start
No law is gonna change us
We have to change us
Whatever god we believe in
We come from the same one
Eb Gm7
Strip away the fear
Ab Eb
Underneath it's all the same love
About time we raised up
Eb Cm Ab Eb
And I can't change
Eb Cm
Even if I tried
Ab Eb
Even if I wanted to
Eb
I'm acting strange
Eb/C Ab Eb
Even if I try
Eb Cm
Even if I wanted to
Ab
My love, my love, my love
(N.C.)
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm

You're everything I wish I could be.
I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.
(same chords as chorus) Did I ever tell you you're my hero?
You're everything, everything I wish I could be.
Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, the wind beneath my wings.
You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly away. You let me fly so high.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.

so high I almost touch the sky.
Thank you, thank you,
thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings.

C G Am F x2
C G
I walked to the door with you, the air was cold
Am F
But something about it felt like home somehow, and I,
C G
Left my scarf there at your sisters house
Am F-once
And you still got it, in your drawer, even now
C G Am F
C G
Oh your sweet dispositon and my wide eyed gaze
Am F
We're singing in the car getting lost upstate
C G
The autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place
Am F
And I can picture it after all these days
C G
And I know it's long gone and, and magics not here no more
Am G F G Am G
And I might be okay but I'm not fine at all
C G
Cause there we are again on that little town street
Am F
You almost ran the red cause you were lookin' over at me
C G Am F
Wind in my hair, I was there, I remember it all too well
C G
Photo album on the counter your cheeks were turing red
Am F
You used to be a little kid with glasses in a twin size bed
C G
And your mothers telling stories 'bout you on a t-ball team
Am F
You tell me about your past thinkin' your future was me
C G
And I know it's long gone and it was nothing else I could do
Am G F G Am G
And I forget about you long enough to forget why I needed too
C G
Cause here we are again in the middle of the night

We dance around the kitchen in the refrigerator light
C G Am F
Down the stairs, I was there, I remember it all too well
C G Am F G
C G
And maybe we got lost in translation maybe I asked for too much
Am F
But maybe this thing was a masterpiece 'til you tore it all up
C G Am F
Running scared, I was there, I remember it all too well
C G
Hey you call me up again just to break me like a promise
Am F
So casually cruel in the name of being honest
C G
I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lyin' here
Am F C G Am F
Cause I remember it all all all too well
C G
Time won't fly it's like I'm paralyzed by it
Am F
I'd like to be my old self again but I'm still tryin' to find it
C G
After plaid shirt days and nights when you made me your own
Am F
Now you mail back my things and I walk home alone
C G
But you keep my old scarf from that very first week
Am F
Cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me
C G Am F
You cant get rid of it cause you remember it all too well yeah
C G
Cause there we are again when I loved you so
Am F
Back before you lost the one real thing you've ever known

Mmm, in my brain
I see your face again
I know my frame of mind
You ain't got to be so blind

But what good does it do
If I ain't got you
Ain't got... baby

Now, if I wrote you a love note
And made you smile with every word I wrote (what would you do?)
Would that make you want to change your scene
And wanna be the one on my team (tell me, would you?)
See, what's the point of waiting anymore?
Cause girl I've never been more sure (that baby, it's you)
This ring here represents my heart
And everything that you've been waiting for (just say I do)
[Chorus-]
Yeah, because
I can see us holding hands
Walking on the beach, our toes in the sand

[T.I.'s rap-]
Shorty, cool as a fan
On the new once again
But, still has fan from Peru to Japan
Listen baby, I don't wanna ruin your plan
If you got a man, try to lose him if you can
Cause your girls real wild through your hands up high
When they wanna come kick it wit a stand up guy
You don't really wanna let the chance go by
Because you ain't been seen wit a man so fly
Friend so fly i can go fly
Private, cause I handle mine
B.I. they call me candle guy, simply because I am on fire
I hate to have to cancel my vacation so you can't deny
I'm patient, but I ain't gonna try
You don't come, I ain't gonna die
Hold up, what you mean, you can't go why?
Me and you boyfriend we ain't no tie
You say you wanna kick it with an ace so high
Baby, you decide that I ain't your guy
Ain't gon lie ,Me in your space
But forget your face, I swear I will
Same mark, same bullet anywhere I chill
Just bring wit me a pair, I will
[Chorus-]
I can see us holding hands
Walking on the beach, our toes in the sand
I can see us on the countryside
Sitting on the grass, laying side by side
You could be my baby, let me make you my lady

See, all I want you to do is be my love

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

C#m
Overdosed on confidence
D
Started not to give a fuck and stop fearing the consequence
Bm
Drinking every night because we drink to my accomplishments
Faded way too long I'm floating in and out of consciousness
And they sayin' I'm back, I'd agree with that
I just take my time with all this shit, I still believe in that
I had someone tell me I fell off, ohh I needed that
And they wanna see me pick back up, well where'd I leave it at
I know I exaggerated things, now I got it like that
Tuck my napkin in my shirt, cause I'm just mobbin' like that
You know good and well that you don't want a problem like that
You gone make someone around me catch a body like that
No don't do it, please don't do it, cause one of us goes in
And we all go through it
So Drizzy got the money, so Drizzy gone pay it
Those my brothers
[Chorus-]
I ain't even gotta say it
That's just something they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah they know yeah
That the real is on the rise
Fuck them other guys
I even gave them a chance to decide
Now its something they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah I be yelling out money over everything, money on my mind.
Then she wanna ask when it got so empty
Tell her I apologize it happened over time
[Verse 2-]
She says they missed the old drake, girl don't tempt me
If they don't get it, they'll be over you
That new shit that you got is overdue
You better do what you suppose to do
I'm like why I gotta be all that but still I can't deny the fact that it's true
Listen to you expressing all them feelings
Soap opera rappers all these s sound like all my children
And that's who you thinking is 'bout to come and make a killing
I guess it really is just me, myself and all my millions.
You know the game even got it like that.
You gone hype me up and make me catch a body like that
Cause I live for this it isn't just a hobby like that.
When they get my shit and play it
[Chorus]
I ain't even gotta say it
That's just something they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah they know yeah
That the real is on the rise
Fuck them other guys
I even gave them a chance to decide
Now its something they know
They know, they know, they know
I be yelling out money over everything, money on my mind.
Tell em' I apologize it happened over time

As a matter of fact I was the one who said I love you first
C G
It was about eight years ago, don't act like you don't know
We were sittin' at home in your mama's livin' room
Cause, we couldn't be alone
See your mama knew I was something else, she knew how I felt
Back then we were in school; and that's your favourite excuse
Growin' up I was a fool; and I can't lie I'm missing you
Listen and don't trip
I think I need a bottle with a genie in it
Here's my wish list
First one, I would create a heart changing love
Second one, I'll take yours and fill it all up
Third one, but I don't need a lot of wishes cause I'll be okay if I get one
If I had one wish, we would be best friends
Love would never end, it would just begin
If I had one wish, you would be my boo
Promise to love you, trust me I'll trust you
If I had one wish, we would run away
Making love all day, have us a baby
If I had one wish, I'd make you my whole life
And you'd be my wife, make it right this time
If I had one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
One wish, one wish, one wish
[ Tab from- http://www.guitaretab.com/r/ray-j/367144.html ]
Now tell me is this the only way I can get you right back in
If so then searchin' I'll go, then I can have you for sho
Then you'll be loving me, holding me, kissing me
So girl don't tell me what I'm feeling is make believe
I swear if I lose a second chance with you
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd probably check myself into some kind of clinic
I couldn't be alone because without you I'm sick
Here's my wish list
First one, I would create a heart changing love
Second one, I'll take yours and fill it all up
Third one, but I don't need a lot of wishes cause I'll be okay if I get one
If I had one wish, we would be best friends
Love would never end, it would just begin
If I had one wish, you would be my boo
Promise to love you, trust me I'll trust you
If I had one wish, we would run away
Making love all day, have us a baby
If I had one wish, I'd make you my whole life
And you'd be my wife, make it right this time
If I had one wish
I don't even know how we ended upon this road
And, even though we are grown, Girl I just want you to know
If I had one wish, we would be best friends
Love would never end, it would just begin
If I had one wish, you would be my boo
Promise to love you, trust me I'll trust you
If I had one wish, we would run away
Making love all day, have us a baby
If I had one wish, I'd make you my whole life
And you'd be my wife, make it right this time
Chords- Em G D A
Repeat throughout the song
Em G
All I care about is money and the city that I'm from
D A
I'ma sip until I feel it, I'ma smoke it till it's done
And I don't really give a f*ck, and my excuse is that I'm young
And I'm only getting older so somebody shoulda told ya
Em G
I'm on one
D A
Yeah, f*ck it, I'm on one
Yeah, I said I'm on one
F*ck it, I'm on one
A strong one
Two white cups and I got that drink
It could be purple, it could be pink
Depending on how you mix that sh*t
Money that we got, never get that sh*t
Cause I'm on one
F*ck it I'm on one
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
You know what I'm like, oh yes, oh yeah
Oh yes, Oh yeah
Oh yes, Oh yeah
You know what I'm sippin, I teach you how to mix it
But you're the only one, cause I don't trust these b*tches
I don't, I don't trust these b*tches
They might catch me slippin'
So you're the only one, cause I don't trust these b*tches
They might, they might catch me slippin' and put in something different
So you're the only one
Cause I don't trust these b*tches
I don't, I don't trust these b*tches
They might catch me slippin'
So you're the only one
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Oooo ooooo ooh
Oh yeh, oh yeh
Let's call up I'm drinkin, let's all get wasted
I'm drinkin', let's all get faded
Drizzy Drake, check me out
Coming live from the the muthaf*cking north side
Kick game, run game, run it real good
But never ever have my b*tches sittin' courtside
Same n*gga that you knew way back when
You actin' like it's somebody you don't know
Tell me how the f*ck we supposed to stay friends
When you got a bunch of feelings that you don't show
I can tell, I can tell, I can tell certain people don't like me no more
New sh*t don't excite me no more
Guess they don't really make 'em like me no more
Uh, you can look me in my eyes and see I ain't myself
Cause if ya what I created then I hate myself
But still, let them girls in,
And tell 'em all leave their cell phones on the table where we see 'em
I'm all day with it man, AM to the PM
N*ggas hatin', I just wish they would say it when I see em all
That's that sh*t that drives me crazy
And it's all that I've been gettin' lately
And it's probably why I'm scared to put the time in
Women wanna f*ck like they're me and I'm them
Looking for some things that I think I can find in you, in you
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Ooooh, trust issues
Oh Oooo ooooo oh
Oh yeh, oh yeh
Lets call up I'm drinkin', let's all get wasted
I'm drinkin', let's all get faded
Oh yeh, oh yeh
Call up on drinkin', let's call up
[Verse 1] A Bbdim7 Bm Bm E E7 A A A Bbdim7 Bm Dm E E7 E E7
Blame it all on my roots / I showed up in boots
And ruined your black tie affair
The last one to know
The last one to show
I was the last one you thought you'd see there
And I saw the surprise
And the fear in his eyes
When I took his glass of champagne
I toasted you
Said honey we may be through
But you'll never hear me
Complain
[Chorus] A A Bm E A A A A7 Bm E A A
'Cause I got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
'Cause I've got friends
In low places
[Verse 2] A Bbdim7 Bm Bm E E7 A A A Bbdim7 Bm Dm E E7 E E7
Well, I guess I was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, I've been there before
Everything's alright
I'll just say goodnight
And I'll show myself to the door
Hey, I didn't mean
To cause a big scene
Just give me an hour and then
I'll be as high as that Ivory tower That you're livin'in
[Chorus]
Dm C
This is the time when you need a friend
Bb F
You just need someone near
Dm C
I'm not looking forward to the night
Bb F
I'll spend thinking of you when you're not here
Am Bb
How many times will I think about the things
F
I'd like to do
Am Bb
Always denied the right to live my life the way I want
G C
I want to share it with you
Chorus-
Dm
Close your eyes
C Bb
I want to ride the skies in my sweet dreams
Dm
Close your eyes
C Bb
I want to see you tonight in my sweet dreams
I'll think of your kiss as the days roll by
And I'll write the words you love
What I can't say in a letter
Will just have to wait till I get home
There's not much time to tell you
Half the things I should
Only that I'm so glad I fell in love with you
And I'd do it again if I could
Chorus
Dm C Dm
Sleep like a child resting deep
C Dm
You don't know what you give me I keep
Bb C Dm C Bb
For these moments alone
E D
Please allow me to introduce myself
A E
I'm a man of wealth and taste
E D
I've been around for a long, long year
A E
Stole many a man's soul and faith
E D
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
A E
Had his moment of doubt and pain
D
Made damn sure that Pilate
A E
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
B
Pleased to meet you
E
Hope you guess my name
B
But what's puzzling you
A E
Is the nature of my game
E D
I stuck around St. Petersburg
A E
When I saw it was a time for a change
D
Killed the Czar and his ministers
A E
Anastasia screamed in vain
E
I rode a tank
D
Held a general's rank
A
When the Blitzkrieg raged
E
And the bodies stank
B
Pleased to meet you
E
Hope you guess my name
B
But what's puzzling you
A E
Is the nature of my game
E
I watched with glee
D
While your kings and queens
A
Fought for ten decades
E
For the Gods they made
E
I shouted out
D
Who killed the Kennedys?
A
When after all
E
It was you and me
E D
Let me please introduce myself
A E
I'm a man of wealth and taste
D
And I laid traps for troubadours
A E
Who get killed before they reached Bombay
B
Pleased to meet you
E
Hope you guess my name
B
But what's puzzling you
A E
Is the nature of my game
oh yeah, get down, baby
solo
B
Pleased to meet you
E
Hope you guess my name
B
But what's puzzling you
A E
Is the nature of my game
E D
Just as every cop is a criminal
A E
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
D
Just call me Lucifer
A E
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint
E
So if you meet me
D
Have some courtesy
A E
Have some sympathy, and some taste
D
Use all your well-learned politesse
A E
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
B
Pleased to meet you
E
Hope you guess my name
B
But what's puzzling you
A E
Is the nature of my game
um baby, get down
Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
Tell me baby, what's my name
Tell me honey, baby guess my name
Tell me baby, what's my name
I tell you one time, you're to blame
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who

Oh, yeah
What's my name
Tell me, baby, what's my name
Tell me, sweetie, what's my name

When this old world starts getting me down
C D G
And people are just too much for me to face

I climb way up to the top of the stairs
C D G
And all my cares just drift right into space
C
On the roof, it's peaceful as can be
G Em C D
And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now
G Em
When I come home feelin' tired and beat
C D G
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof)
Em
I get away from the hustling crowd
C D G
And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof)
C
On the roof, the only place I know
G Em C D
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Let's go up on the roof (up on the roof)
C
At night the stars put on a show for free
G Em C D
And, darling, you can share it all with me
I keep a-tellin' you
G Em
Right smack dab in the middle of town
C D G
I've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof)
G Em
And if this world starts getting you down
C D
There's room enough for two
G Em
Up on the roof (up on the roof)

Up on the roo-oo-oof (up on the roof)

Oh, come on, baby (up on the roof)

Oh, come on, honey (up on the roof)
