Verse 1 Backstroke lover always hidin' ‘neath the cover,
Still I talked to your daddy he say,
He said you ain't seen nothing
‘Til you're down on a muffin,
Then you're sure to be a-changin' your ways.
I met a cheerleader, was a real young bleeder,
All the times I can reminisce,
‘Cause the best thing lovin'
With her sister and her cousin
Only started with a little kiss, like this!

Verse 3 School girl Sadie with the classy, Kinda sassy,
Little skirt climbing way up her knees,
There was three young ladies in the ground gym locker
When I noticed they was lookin' at me.
I was a high school loser
Never made it with a lady
Till the boys told me something I missed,
Then my next door neighbour
With a daughter had a favour,

So I gave her just a little kiss, like this!

Every time you call me and tell me we should meet tomorrow

RIFF 2X
They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out the ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
But swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
We ended up at the grand hotel
It was empty cold and bare
But with the rolling truck stones thing just outside
Making our music there
With a few red lights and a few old beds
We make a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know we'll never forget
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

There's a she wolf in disguise

Coming out, coming out, coming out

A domesticated girl that's all you ask of me
Am F C Am
Darling it is no joke, this is lycanthropy

The moon's awake now, with eyes wide open

So I'm gonna go somewhere cozy to get me a lover and tell you all about it

C
It's nice to finally meet a girl who doesn't move too fast

Relationships need time to grow
You and I should take this slow
G7
Darlin' tell me would you like to dance
Chorus 2 - Chords are same
Me neither
I was just being polite
Thank goodness
My feet are much too tired
I'm sure you're tired too
I can see an empty booth
Would you like to maybe sit and talk a while
Chorus 3 - Chords are same
Me neither
We'd never get along
I'm thinkin'
There's no chemistry at all
This has been a waste of time
And I'm running out of lines
Don't you think it's time for me to end this song?
(Pause for 1 Bar)
Me neither..... (SOLO)

I never thought I'd be in love like this
When I look at you, my mind goes on a trip
Then you came in and knocked me on my face
Feels like I'm in a race, but I already won first place
I never thought I'd fall for you as hard as I did (As hard as I did, yeah)
You got me thinking 'bout our life, our house, our kids, yeah
Every morning, I look at you and smile
'Cause boy, you came around
And you knocked me down, knocked me down
[Chorus 1:]
Sometimes, love comes around
(Love comes around, love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up when it knocks you down, knocks you down
Sometimes, love comes around
And it knocks you down
Just get back up when it knocks you down, knocks you down

I used to be commander-in-chiefOn my pimp shit, flying high (Flying high)
'Til I met this pretty little missile (Oh)That shot me out the sky

Hit, so now, I'm crashing (Don't know how it happened)
But I know it feels so good
Said if I could go back and (Make it happen faster)
Don't you know I would, baby, if I could? (Oh)

All I care about is money and the city that I'm from

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

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

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

G#5 F#5 E C#5
I had a way then losing it all on my own
G#5 F#5 E C#5
I had a heart then, but the Queen has been overthrown
G#5 F#5 E C#5
And I'm not sleeping now, the dark is too hard to beat
G#5 F#5 E C#5
And I'm not keeping now, the strength I need to push me
Chorus-

You show the lights that stop me, turn to stone
E C#5
You shine it when I'm alone

And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
E C#5
And dreaming when they're gone
G#5 F#5
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home

Verse 2-
G#5 F#5 E C#5
Noises, I play within my head
G#5 F#5 E C#5
Touch my own skin, and hope that I'm still breathing
G#5 F#5 E C#5
And I think back to when, my brother and my sister slept
G#5 F#5 E C#5
In an unlocked place, the only time I feel safe
Chorus-
G#5 F#5
You show the lights that stop me, turn to stone
E C#5
You shine it when I'm alone
G#5 F#5
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong

And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home

At this point an acoustic guitar enters strumming the chords. From this
point on, one of the electrics plays the riff during the verses, the part
shown above during the bridges, and strums the chords during the choruses
(Time is wasting..) and solo. The second electric plays the occasional
power chord during verses and bridges and strums along to the choruses.
It also takes the solo-

I stand here contemplating

On the right thing

Will I

All my life, where will I go? What lies ahead of me?

I have strong

And I'm not afraid of change
I have yet to find that someone

Who can I run to, to share this empty

Who

Who can I run to,

to fill this empty space with laughter?
Who can I run to, when I

And my mind is so confusing
Who would be that special one?
Everyday I'm trying to find you

I've got to

a place

I know love has many names

a message very clear
All it takes

To bring you near, but who

Tell

Intro- / G - F C / /
Listen, boy, I don't want to see you let
A good thing slip away
You know I don't like watching anybody make
The same mistakes I made
She's a real nice girl and she's always there for you
But a nice girl wouldn't tell you what you should do
/ G - / F C / - / Bm Bb Am - / Cm G Am AmC /
Oh, listen, boy, I'm sure that you think
You got it all under control
You don't want somebody telling you
The way to stay in someone's soul
You're a big boy now and you'll never let her go
But that's just the kind of thing she ought to know
... / Cm G Am GA /
{Refrain}
Tell her about it, tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason to accept that you're for real
Tell her about it, tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her, let her know how much she means
/ D - F#m - / Bm - Em EmA / -
Listen, boy, it's not automatically
A certain guarantee
To insure yourself you've got to provide
Communication constantly
When you love someone you're always insecure
And there's only one good way to reassure
{As Refrain}
Tell her about it, let her know how much you care
When she can't be with you tell her you wish you were there
Tell her about it everyday before you leave
Pay her some attention, give her something to believe
'Cause now and then she'll get to worrying
Just because you haven't spoken for so long
Though you may not have done anything
Will that be a consolation when she's gone
/ F Dm Eb - / Gm C D - / 1st / Gm C A - /
Listen, boy, it's good information
From a man who's made mistakes
Just a word or two that she gets from you
Could be the difference that it makes
She's a trusting soul, she's put her trust in you
But a girl like that won't tell you what you should do
{Refrain}
Tell her about it, tell her how you feel right now
Tell her about it, the girl don't want to wait too long
You got to tell her about it
Tell her now and you won't go wrong
You got to tell her about it before it gets too late
You got to tell her about it

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.
Bm E7 A F#m
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.

Remember those walls I built
Well, baby, they're tumbling down

I found a way to let you win
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your
halo I got my angel now

It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you break it
It's the risk that I'm taking
I ain't never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo (halo) halo I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo I can see your halo (halo) halo
[Verse 2]
Hit me like a ray of sun
Burnin' through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like fallin'
Gravity can't begin
To pull me back to the ground again
