Now if I gave you me, this is how it's got to be
First of all I won't take you cheatin' on me
Tell me who can I trust if I can't trust in you
And I refuse to let you play me for a fool
You said that we could possibly spend eternity
See that's what you told me (that's what you said)
But if you want me
You have to be fulfilling all my dreams
(If you really want me babe)
CHORUS
Verse
Said you want my love and you've got to have it all
But first there are some things you need to know
If you want to live
With all I have to give
I need to feel true love
Or it's got to end, yeah
I don't want you
Trying to get with me
And I end up unhappy

So before I do
Give myself to you
I have to know the truth
(If I spend my life with you)

[Drake- Verse 1]
I've asked about you and they've told me things
But my mind didn't change, I still the feel the same
What's a life with no fun? please don't be so ashamed
I've had mine, you've had yours, we both know
We know, **strumming fast here sounds good** they don't get you like I will
My only wish is I die real
Cause that truth hurts, and those lies heal
And you can't sleep thinking that he lies still
So you cry still, tears all in the pillow case
Big girls all get a little taste
Pushing me away so I give her space
Dealing with a heart that I didn't break
I'll be there for you, I will care for you
I keep thanking you, just don't know
Try to run from that, say you're done with that
On your face girl, it just don't show
When you're ready, just say you're ready
When all the baggage just ain't as heavy
And the parties over, just don't forget me
We'll change the pace and we'll just go slow
*stop strumming* Won't ever have to worry,
You won't ever have to hide
If you've seen all my mistakes
So look me in my eyes
Am, G, F

[Drake- Verse 2]
It's my birthday, I get high if I want to
Can't deny that I want you, but I lie if have to
Cause you don't say you love me
To your friend when they ask you
Even though we both know that you do (you do) *strumming here sounds good*
One time, been in love one time
You and all your girls in the club one time
All so convinced that you're following your heart
Cause your mind don't control what it does sometimes
We all have our nights though, don't be so ashamed
I've had mine, you've had yours, we both know
We know, *stop strumming* you hate being alone
You ain't the only one
You hate the fact that you bought the dream
And they sold you one
You love your friends but somebody shoulda told you somin' to save you
Instead they said…

Understand my life is easy
When I ain't around you

Too biggie to be here stressing'
I'm thinkin' I love the thought of you
More than I love your presence
And the best thing now
Is probably for you to exit
I let you go
Let you back
I finally learned my lesson
No half-stepping
Either you want it or you just playin'
I'm listening to you knowing
I can't believe what you're sayin'
There's a million you's baby boy
So don't be dumb
I got 99 problems
But you won't be one

Well, baby I've been around the world

But there's just one thing I need from you (say I do)

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

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
Girl, you amaze me
Ain't gotta do nothing crazy
See, all I want you to do is be my love
(Love) My love
(Love) My love
(Love) Ain't another woman that can take your spot, my love
(Love) My love
(Love) My love
(Love) Ain't another woman that can take your spot, my love
Ooooh, girl

Verse 1:
Oh, once upon a midnight eerie I woke with something in my head
I couldn't escape the memory Of a phone call and of what you said
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
I could not believe my eyes
When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend
Who needs to humor me and tell me lies,
yeah humor me and tell me lies
And I'll lie too and say I don't mind And as we seek so shall we find
And when you're feeling open I'll still be here
But not without a certain degree of fear
Well, what will be with you and me I still can see things hopefully
Chorus:
But you Why you wanna give me a run-around?
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up?
When all it does is slow me down
Verse 2:
Shake me and my confidence About a great many things
But I've been there I can see it cower
Like a nervous magician waiting in the wings
Of a bad play where the heroes are right
And nobody thinks or expects too much
And Hollywood's calling for the movie rights
Singing "Hey babe, let's keep in touch",
hey baby, let's keep in touch
But I want more than a touch I want you to reach me
And show me all the things no one else can see
So what you feel becomes mine as well
And soon if we're lucky we'd be unable to tell
What's yours and mine, the fishing's fine
And it doesn't have to rhyme, so don't you feed me a line
Chorus:
Verse 3:
Tra la la la la bombardier, this is the pilot speaking
I've got some news for you
It seems my ship still stands no matter what you drop
And there ain't a whole lot that you can do
Oh sure the banner may be torn and the wind's gotten colder
Perhaps I've grown a little cynical
But I know no matter what the waitress brings
I shall drink it and always be full, yeah I will drink it and always be full
Oh I like coffee and I like tea I'd like to be able to enter a final plea
I still got this dream that you just can't shake
I love you to the point you can no longer take
Well all right okay, so be that way
I hope and pray that there's something left to say
Chorus:
C G/B Dm7
You're my sunshine after the rain
C G/B Dm7
You're the cure against my fear and my pain

Cause I'm losing my mind when you're not around

Could ever take your place

When you're touching me kisses endlessly

It's just a place in the sun

Where our love's begun

I miss you

Sometimes my tries are outside the lines
We've been conditioned
To not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

It's late September and I really should be back at school.
G D G A
I know I keep you amused, but I feel I'm being used.
Em F#m Em
Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more.
Em A Em A
You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone.

You stole my heart and that's what really hurts.

The morning sun, when it's in your face really shows your age.

But that don't worry me none; in my eyes you're everything.

All I need was a friend to lend a guiding hand.

But you turned into a lover and Mother what a lover your wore me out.

All you did was wreck my bed, and in the morning kick me in the head,

I suppose I could collect my books and get back to school.

Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool.
G D G A
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand,
Em F#m Em
Oh, Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face.

Some people live for the fortune

Some people live just for the fame
Gmaj7 G#dim
Some people live for the power yeah
Am7 D7
Some people live just to play the game
Pre Chorus: Gmaj7 Am7 Bm7 Am7
Some people think that the physical things /
Define what's within /
I've been there before / But that life's a bore /
So full of the superficial
Chorus: Cmaj7 - Bm7 - Am7 - Gmaj7
Some people want it all / But I don't want nothing at all /
If it ain't you baby / If I ain't got you baby /
Some people want diamond rings / Some just want everything /
But everything means nothing / If I ain't got you
[Verse] Gmaj7 Em7 Am7 D7
Some people search for a fountain /
Promises forever young
Gmaj7 G#dim Am7 D7
Some people need three dozen roses /
And that's the only way to prove you love them
Pre Chorus: Gmaj7 Am7 Bm7 Am7
Hand me the world on a silver platter /
And what good would it be /
No one to share /
No one who truly cares for me
Chorus: Cmaj7 - Bm7 - Am7 - Gmaj7
Some people want it all / But I don't want nothing at all /
If it ain't you baby / If I ain't got you baby /

War! Means tears to thousands of mother's eyes,

when their sons go to fight and lose their lives.
CHORUS:
#2.***(Chords are the same for the other verses.)***
F#m
War! It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker.
War! friend only to the undertaker.
Ooooh, War! is an enemy to all mankind.
The thought of war blows my mind.
War! has caused unrest within the younger generation.
Induction then destruction..who wants to die? Unnnnh!
CHORUS:
#3.
F#m
War! it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker.
War! it's got one friend..that's the undertaker.
Ooooh, WAR! has shattered many a young man's dreams.
Made him disabled, bitter and mean.
Life is much to short and precious to spend
fighting wars these days.
War! can't give life..It can only take it away.
CHORUS:
#4.
F#m
War! it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker.
War! friend only to the undertaker.

They say we must fight to keep our freedom,
But, Lord knows, there's got to be a better way.

Them s scared of it but them hoes ain't
Soon as I hit the club, look at them hoes' face
Put the pedal once make the floor shake
Suede inside, my engine roaring
It's the big boy, you know what I paid for it
And I got the pedal to the metal
Got you s checking game, I'm balling out on every level
Hear them haters talk but there's nothing you can tell 'em
Just made a million, got another million on my schedule
No love for 'em, breaking hearts
No keys, push to start
[Hook]
Verse 2
Wiz Khalifa]
Got a call from my jeweler, this just in
And es love me cause I'm fucking with their best friends
Not a lesbian, but she a freak though
Come stay for one night, I'm shining all week ho

So many rocks up in my watch I can't tell what the time is
Got a pocket full of big faces
Throw it up cause every that I'm with Taylored

Have you ever popped champagne on a plane
While getting' some brain
Whipped it out, she said "I never seen snakes on a plane"
Whether you broke or rich you gotta get biz

But when I get my card back activated

I always had a passion for flashin' before I had it
I closed my eyes and imagined, the good life

Waitin on a woman
(verse 2)
He said the wedding took a year to plan,
You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous,
Waitin on a woman
And he nudged my arm like old men do, and said
I'll say this about the honeymoon, it was worth it,
Waitin on a woman
(chorus)
Am (G)
And I don't guess we'd been anywhere
F
She hasn't made us late I swear,
C G C
Sometimes she does it just cause she can do it,
Am (G)
Boy it's just a fact of life,
F
it's be the same with your young wife,
C F C
Might as well go on and get used to it,
Dm C-F
she'll take her time, cause you don't mind,

So when it finally comes my time,

And I get to the other side,

I'll find myself a bench if they got any,

F C Am G C (hold for 1 measure, then proceed to instr.)
He's my first mistake...
Instrumental-
C C/B Am G
*the instrumental follows the same chords as the verses, though where the verses play
the chords for two measures, each chord in the intrumental is played for only 1 measure*
Verse 4-
C
Maybe you were all faster than me
We gave each other up so easily
C/B
(These) silly little wounds will never mend
I feel so far from where I've been...
CHORUS 3-
F Am G
(So I) go, and I will not be back here again
F Am G F
I'm gone as the day is fading, on
C Am G
White hou-ses
F Am G
(I) lied, wrote my injuries all the in dust
F Am G F
In my heart it's the five of us, in
C Am G
White hou-ses
F Am G
(And) you, maybe you'll remember me
F Am G F
What I gave is yours to keep, in
C Am G F F2
White hou-ses, in
C Am G F F2
White hou-ses, in
C Am G2 C
White hou-ses...

G C9 G F G
It's been a hard days night, and I've been workin' like a dog
C9 G F G
It's been a hard days night, and I should be sleepin' like a log
C D
But when I get home to you I find the things that you do
G C9 G
They make me feel alright
Bm Em Bm
When I'm home, everything seems to be right
G Em C D
When I'm home, feeling you holding me tight, tight, yeah
You know I work all day, to get you money, to buy you things
And it's worth it just to hear you say, you're gonna give me everything
So why on earth should I moan, cause when I get you alone you know I'll feel OK
G C9 G
You know I feel alright
Both Solos played in unison with 2guitars
2nd solo may be wrong, judge for yourself

1) She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes.
G Bm G
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies.
A7 D A7 F#
And she only reveals what she wants you to see.
Bm G A7 D
She hides like a child, but she's always a woman to me.

CHORUS - Ohhh... she takes care of herself.
D G Em A7 D
She can wait if she wants, she's ahead of her time.
Dm G7 C Am
Ohhh... and she never gives out,
Bb E E7 A
and she never gives in, she just changes her mind.
2) She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you.
She can ask for the truth, but she'll never believe.
And she'll take what you give her as long it's free.
She steals like a thief, but she's always a woman to me.
CHORUS
3) And she'll promise you more than the garden of Eden.
Then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleeding.
But she brings out the best and the worst you can be.
Blame it all on yourself 'cause she's always a women to me.
CHORUS
4) She's frequently kind and she's suddenly cruel.
She can do as she pleases, she's nobody's fool.
But she can't be convicted, she's earned her degree.
And the most she will do is throw shadows at you,
but she's always a woman to me.

Waking up to kiss you and nobody's there

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

The way it looks ain't what you think

This Cabernet has a way of vanishing on me

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

Honey, no, I don't miss him

I won't cry about love gone wrong

'Cause tears would water down this ruby red I'm sipping on
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
Chorus
You may ask me where it's goin'
But I can't even find
The hole in the bottle of wine

There is no pain you are receding

A distant ship smoke on the horizon
C G
You are only coming through in waves

Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying

When I was a child I had a fever

My hands felt just like two ballons

I can't explain, you would not understand

This is not how I am

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-

Rid me of the problem, do all that you can.
Keep me in a daydream, keep me goin' strong.
You don't wanna save me, sad is my song.

CAPO ON 1ST
[Verse]
Am G C F
I thought that I've been hurt before
Am G C F
But no one's ever left me quite this sore
Am G C F
Your words cut deeper than a knife
Am G F
Now I need someone to breathe me back to life
F G
Got a feeling that I'm going under
Am G
But I know that I'll make it out alive
F G
If I quit calling you my lover
Am
Move on
[Chorus]
Am G
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
C
I'm shaking, falling onto my knees
F Am G
And now that I'm without your kisses
C F
I'll be needing stitches
Am
I'm tripping over myself,
G C
I'm aching begging you to come help
F Am G
And now that I'm without your kisses
C F
I'll be needing stitches
[Verse]
Am G C F
Just like a moth drawn to a flame
Am G C F
Oh, you lured me in, I couldn't sense the pain
Am G C F
Your bitter heart cold to the touch
Am G
Now I'm gonna reap what I sow
C F
I'm left seeing red on my own
F G
Got a feeling that I'm going under
Am G
But I know that I'll make it out alive
F G
If I quit calling you my lover
Am
Move on
[Chorus]
Am G
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
C
I'm shaking, falling onto my knees
F Am G
And now that I'm without your kisses
C F
I'll be needing stitches
Am
I'm tripping over myself,
G C
I'm aching begging you to come help
F Am G
And now that I'm without your kisses
C F
I'll be needing stitches
[Bridge]
Am
Needle and the thread,
G
Gotta get you out of my head
C
Needle and the thread,
F
Gonna wind up dead
Am
Needle and the thread,
G C F
Gotta get you out of my head, get you out of my head
[Chorus]
Am G
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
C
I'm shaking, falling onto my knees
F Am G
And now that I'm without your kisses

Intro- F Dm Am C
F Dm
All I am is a man
Am C
I want the world in my hands
F
I hate the beach
Dm
But I stand
Am C
In California with my toes in the sand
F
Use the sleeves of my sweater
Dm
Let's have an adventure
Am C
Head in the clouds but my gravity's centered
F Dm
Touch my neck and I'll touch yours
Am C
You in those little high waisted shorts, oh
F Dm
She knows what I think about
Am
And what I think about
One love, two mouths
C
One love, one house
F Dm
No shirt, no blouse
Just us, you find out
Am C
Nothing that wouldn't wanna tell you about, no
F Dm
'Cause it's too co-oh-oh-oh-oh-woah-old
Am C
For you here and now
F Dm
So let me ho-oh-oh-oh-oh-woah-old
Am C
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater
F
And if I may just take your breath away
Dm
I don't mind if there's not much to say
Am
Sometimes the silence guides our minds
C
So move to a place so far away
F
The goose bumps start to raise
Dm
The minute that my left hand meets your waist
Am
And then I watch your face
C
Put my finger on your tongue
'Cause you love the taste, yeah
F
These hearts adore
Dm
Everyone the other beats' heart is for
Am
Inside this place is warm
C
Outside it starts to pour...
F Dm
Coming down
Am
One love, two mouths
C
One love, one house
No shirt, no blouse
F Dm
Just us, you find out
Am
Nothing that wouldn't wanna tell you about, no
[repeat 2x]
F Dm
'Cause it's too co-oh-oh-oh-oh-woah-old
Am C
For you here and now

For you here and now
F Dm
Let me ho-oh-oh-oh-oh-woah-old
Am C
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

It's too cold,
Dm
It's too cold
Am
The holes of my sweater...

D C G
[Verse]. G
Maybe you'll wanna give me kisses sweet
But only for one night with no repeat
And maybe you'll go away and never call
C D G
And a taste of honey is worse than none at all
[Chorus] C G
Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
C G
I do believe that that would only break my heart
G
Oh, but if you feel like lovin' me
D C G
If you got the notion, I second that emotion
D C
Said, if you feel like givin' me a lifetime of devotion
G D C
I second that emotion oh
[Verse]. G
Maybe you think that love would tie you down
And you don't have the time to hang around
Or maybe you think that love was made for fools
C D G
And so it makes you wise to break the rules
[Chorus]
C G
Oh little girl in that case I don't want no part
C G
I do believe that that would only break my heart
G
Oh, but if you feel like lovin' me
D C G
If you got the notion, I second that emotion
D C
Said, if you feel like givin' me a lifetime of devotion
G D C G D C C G
I second that emotion oh, oh oh, oh
[Chorus]
C G
Oh little girl in that case I don't want no part
C G
I do believe that that would only break my heart
G
Oh, but if you feel like lovin' me
D C G
If you got the notion, I second that emotion
D C
Said, if you feel like givin' me a lifetime of devotion
G
I second that emotion
[Outro]
D C G
Oh girl, I second that emotion
D C G
Oooh little girl I second that emotion (Fade)

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

No, you're never gonna get it
Never ever gonna get it (no, not this time)
No, you're never gonna get it (my love)
Never ever gonna get it
No, you're never gonna get it
Never ever gonna get it (no, not this time)
No, you're never gonna get it (my love)
Never ever gonna get it
I remember how it used to be
You never was this nice, you can't fool me
Now you talkin' like you made a change
The more you talk, the more things sound the same
What makes you think you can just walk back into her life
Without a good fight? Oh
I just sit back and watch you make a fool of yourself
Cuz you're just wasting your time, oh
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
Now you promise me the moon and stars
Save your breath, you won't get very far
Gave you many chances to make change
The only thing you changed was love to hate
It doesn't matter what you do or what you say
She doesn't love you, no way
Maybe next time you'll give your woman a little respect
So you won't be hearing her say, No way
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
Doesn't matter what you do or what you say
She don't love you, no way
Maybe next time you'll give your woman a little respect
So you won't be hearing her say, No way
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it (whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa)
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it, never get it
No, you're never gonna get it (sweet lovin')
Never ever gonna get it (sweet lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (my lovin')
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (sweet lovin')
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (sweet lovin')
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
