VERSE
If I could give you the world
On a silver platter
Would it even matter?
You'd still be mad at me
If I could find in all this
A dozen roses
Which I would give to you
You'd still be miserable
In reality, I'm gonna be who I be
And I don't feel no faults
For all the lies that you bought
You can try as you may
Break me down but I say
That it ain't up to you
Gone and do what you do
CHORUS
Hate on me, hater
Now or later
‘Coz I'm gonna do me
You'll be mad, baby
Go ‘head and hate
Go ‘head and hate on me, hate on
‘Coz I'm not afraid of it
What I got I paid for
You can hate on me
Ooh, if I gave you peaches
Out of my own garden
And I made you a peach pie
Would you slap me high
What if I gave you diamonds
Out of my own womb
Would you feel the love in that,
Or ask ‚why not the moon‚Äù?
If I gave you sanity
For the whole of humanity,
Had all the solutions
For the pain and pollution
No matter where I live,
Despite the things I give,
You'll always be this way
So go ‘head and….
You cannot hate on me
‘Cuz my mind is free
Feel my destiny
So shall it be

Verse: Bm F#m Em Bm
If you wanna run away with me, I know a galaxy And I can take you for a ride
I had a premonition that we fell into a rhythm Where the music don't stop for life
Glitter in the sky, glitter in my eyes Shining just the way I like
If you're feeling like you need a little bit of company You met me at the perfect time
You want me, I want you, babyMy sugarboo, I'm levitating
The Milky Way, we're renegadingYeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Chorus: Harmonize this!!
I got you, moonlight, you're my starlight
I need you all night, come on, dance with me I'm levitating
You, moonlight, you're my starlight
I need you all night, come on, dance with me I'm levitating
Verse 2:
I believe that you're for me, I feel it in our energy I see us written in the stars
We can go wherever, so let's do it now or never Baby, nothing's ever, ever too far
Glitter in the sky, glitter in our eyes Shining just the way we are
I feel like we're forever every time we get together But whatever, let's get lost on Mars
You want me, I want you, babyMy sugarboo, I'm levitating
The Milky Way, we're renegadingYeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Chorus:
Jam: You can fly away with me tonight You can fly away with me tonight
Baby, let me take you for a ride Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah I'm levitating (woo)

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

(Don't forget about us)
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
My baby boy
Just let it die
With no goodbyes
Details don't matter
We both paid the price
Tears in my eyes
You know sometimes
It'd be like that baby
Now every time I see you
I pretend I'm fine
When I wanna reach out to you
But I turn and I walk and I let it ride
Baby I must confess
We were bigger than anything
Remember us at our best
And don't forget about
[Chorus]
Late nights, playin' in the dark
And wakin' up inside my arms
Boy, you'll always be in my heart and
I can see it in your eyes
You still want it
So don't forget about us
I'm just speaking from experience
Nothing can compare to your first true love
So I hope this will remind you
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us
Oh they say
That you're in a new relationship
But we both know
Nothing comes close to
What we had, it perseveres
That we both can't forget it
How good we used to get it
There's only one me and you
And how we used to shine
No matter what you go through
We are one, that's a fact
That you can't deny
So baby we just can't let
The fire pass us by
Forever we'd both regret
So don't forget about
[Chorus]
And if she's got your head all messed up now
That's the trickery
She'll wanna have like you know how this lovin' used to be
I bet she can't do like me
She'll never be M-C
Baby don't you, don't you forget about us
[Chorus- x2]
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us.

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

Darling, if you love me, I beg you wait a little longer,

Wait until I drive all these foolish fears out of my mind,

How I hope and pray that our love will keep on growing stronger,

Maybe I'm suspicious cause true love is so hard to find.

verse - G / C/ G / Am x4
an old man turned 98, won the lottery and died the next day
it's a black fly in a new chardonney
it's a death row pardoned two minutes too late...
chorus- same as verse (x3)
its like rain on your wedding day
its a free ride when you've already paid
it's the good advice that you just didn't take
Bb / F / G
and who would have thought it figured
verse
traffic jams when you're already late
a no smoking sign on your cigarette break
its like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
its like meeting the man of your dreams then meeting his beautiful wife
chourus x2
Am/ G/ Am / C
life has a funny way of sneaking up on you when you think
every things ok and everything blows up in your face...
chorus
Am G C D
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
F G Am
and she's buying a stairway to heaven
Am G C D
When she gets there she knows if the stores are all closed
F G Am
with a word she can get what she came for
C D F Am C G D
Oh___ oh____ and she's buying a stairway to heaven
C D F Am
There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
C D F
'cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
Am G C D
In a tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings
F G Am Am G C D F G Am
Sometimes all of her thoughts are misgiven
G Am7 Am Dsus4 D Am7 Am Em D C D
Oh___ it makes me wonder
Am7 Am Dsus4 D Am7 Am Em D C D
Oh___ it makes me wonder
C G Am
There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
C G F Am
and my spirit is crying for leaving
C G Am
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
C G F Am C G
and the voices of those who stand looking
Am7 Am Dsus4 D Am7 Am Em D C D
Oh___ it makes me wonder
Am7 Am Dsus4 D Am7 Am D C D
Oh___ it really makes me wonder
And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
then the piper will lead us to reason
And the new day will dawn for those who stand long
and the forest will echo with laughter
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow don't be alarmed now
it's just a spring clean for the May queen
Yes there are two paths you can go by but in the long run
there's still time to change the road you're on
...and it makes me wonder
Your head is humming and it won't go in case you don't know
the piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady can you hear the wind blow and did you know
your stairway lies on the whispering wind
D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D Dsus4 C Cadd9 C Cadd9 C
Am G F G
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks the lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
how everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
the truth will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll
F G Am
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

That's to have the girl that I love so fine

New York
Verse 1-
New York City makes dreams come true
What a perfect place for my musical debut
I hear the city never sleeps it just keeps rolling on through
So on to Gotham City on a super jet plane I flew
Verse 2
Anticipation and uncertainty, try to get the best of me
This challenge I'm about to face is laced with millions just like me
Who travel from the ends of end to get to where I want to be
Putting all they've got onto one hot shot to prove themselves relentlessly
Pre-chorus-
Rewind, cause I can't focus on these trivial things
Gotta keep my mind in motion, take whatever it brings
Chorus-
Here I am in NYC, the capitol of the world
Far from my hometown Houston, far for this Texas girl
Here I am in Empire City
I'm on top of the world
New York, New York
New York
Verse 3-
Sure ain't pleasant Texas, no friendly passer-bys
Just stressed out suits stressing 'bout their push and go lives
No driving slow on Sunday Mornings or watching clouds go by
Just busy streets with crazy cabbies fighting over traffic lights
Verse 4-
You'd think a Texas Tornado was on a path of destruction
The way the public scurries home after the daily grind function
Some ease the tension with a PBR, the cheapest they make
Some drop mad cash on a bottle now that's extravagant taste

Verse 1: G Em G Bm Am D | Em G | C
You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature has a life,
has a spirit, has a name
Verse 2: G Em G Bm Am D | Em G | G
You think the only people who
are people are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
you'll learn things you never knew you never knew
[Chorus] Em Bm C
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Em Bm
or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned
C D Em /
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain
C / D /
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
C D G /
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
Verse 3: G Em G Bm Am D | Em G | C
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
and for once never wonder what they're worth
Verse 4: G Em G Bm Am D | Em G | G
The rain storm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
in a circle in a hoop that never ends
[Bridge] G C Bm Em Am D
How high does the sycamore grow? If you cut it down then you'll never know
[Chorus] Em Bm C
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Em Bm
or whether we are white or copper skin
C D Em
You need to sing with all the voices of the mountain
C D
You need to paint with all the colors of the wind

You can own the earth and still all you own is earth until
C D G you can paint with all the colors of the wind

But I hear the blanne was mine

I'd call your up to say I'm sorry

But I wouldn't wont to waste your time

Cos I love you, but I can't take any more
Bb F
There's a look I cant describe in your eyes
Bb F Am
Yes we could try, like we trid before
Bb
When you kept on telling me those lies
(F Am Bb C) x2
Do you remember..
F Am
There seemed no way to make up
Bb C
Cos it seemd your mind was set
F Am
And the way you looked it told me
Bb C
Its a look I know I'll never forget
Bb F
You could've come over to my side
Bb F
You could've let me know
Bb F Am
You could've tried to see the distance intues us
Bb
But it seemed too far for you to go
(F Am Bb C) x2
Do you remember..
Am Dm
Though all of my life
Am Dm
Is spite of all the pain
Am Dm
You trais people are funny sometimes
Bb
Cos they just can't wait
C
To get hurt again
(F Am Bb C) x2
Do you remember..
There things we won´t recall
Feelings well never find
It taken so long to see it
Cos we never seemed to have the time
There was always something more important to do
More important to say
But I love you, wasn't one of those things
And nao its too late
Do you remember... ?

I used to cry myself to sleep at night

He takes me down and rocks me slow
And in the evening when the moon is high
He holds me close and won't let go
He won't let go

1. I took my baby on a Saturday bang,
Boy is that girl with you ? Yes, we're one and the same.
G
Now I believe in miracles,
D G G G D G G G D ~
and a miracle has happened tonight.
A
But, if you're thinkin' about my baby,
G D G G G D G G G D ~ (2x)
it don't matter if you're black or white.
D
2. They print my message in the Saturday Sun,
I had to tell them, I ain't second to none.
G
And I told about equality,
D G G G D G G G D ~
and it's true, either you're wrong or you're right.
A
But, if you're thinkin' about my baby,
G D G G G D G G G D ~ (4x)
it don't matter if you're black or white.
D
I`m tired of this devil, I`m tired of this stuff,
G D
I`m tired of this business, so when the going gets rough.
D
I ain't scared of your brother, I ain't scared of no sheets,
G D
I ain't scared of nobody, girl when the goin' gets mean.
BLACK OR WHITE, 2
3. (rapping) in D
Protection for gangs, clubs, and nations,
causing grief in human relations.
It's a turf war on a global scale,
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale.
See, it's not about races, just places, faces.
Where your blood comes from is where your space is.
I've seen the bright get duller,
I'm not going to spend my life being a color.
G
Don't tell me you agree with me,
D G G G D G G G D ~
when I saw you kicking dirt in my eye.
A
But, if you're thinkin' about my baby,
G D G G G D G G G D ~
it don't matter if you're black or white.
A
I said, if you're thinkin' about my baby,
G D G G G D G G G D ~
it don't matter if you're black or white.
A
I said, if you're thinkin' of being my brother,

it don't matter if you're black or white.

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
These battle
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

The jewel of Africa

What good is a jewel that ain't still precious
How could you run off on me?

You feel like God inside that gold
I found you laying down with Samson
And his full head of hair
Found my black queen Cleopatra
Bad dreams Cleopatra
Chorus-
Remove her
Send the cheetahs to the tomb
Our war is over, our queen has met her doom
No more she lives, no more serpent in her room
No more, it has killed Cleopatra, Cleopatra

Haha, Luda!
She can go lower than I ever really thought she could Face down, ass up
The top of your booty jiggling out your jeans, baby pull your pants up
I like it when I see you do it, better than I've ever seen I done befo'
A lot of, women, drop it to the ground, but how low can you go?
Lower than your mama's ever seen it in her lifetime
Never would've imagined it, not even in her right mind
Practice in front of that mirror, now you doing it on the dance flo'
Mad 'cause I can't get with you, chick, just show me how to dance, oh
I may not wanna get low, so I'm posted up, kinda like a player do
But if you come to the crib, then I might show you girls a thang or two
Yeah, I think you a superstar, with a ass like that you gotta blow
Befo' you make it big, there's just one thang that I gotta know
How low can you go? How low can you go? [x4]
I can go low (go low), lower than you know
Go low (go low), lower than you know [x3]
I be like knick, knack, patty, wack
Oh, where my kitty cat?
Give a dog a bone
How many licks does it take 'til I get to the center and let a realer take you home?
I can make this show stop, soon as he hear this fo' pop
From ATLANTA all the way down to yo' block
Put the needle on the record
And I make her get lower than a Lamborghini
And if she really get low, then I'ma shoot a video and put it all on TV
'Cause I like that French vanilla (French vanilla)
And the caramel (and the caramel)
But when it comes to chocolate (when it comes to chocolate)
I know that very well
Asian persuasion, no discrimination, I love how they seem to please us
I wanna taste them butter Rican pecan peanut butter cups like Reese's Pieces
'Cause I think you a superstar, with a ass like that you gotta blow
Befo' you make it big, well, there's just one thang that I gotta know
How low can you go? How low can you go? [x4]
I can go low (go low), lower than you know
Go low (go low), lower than you know [x3]
Drop it, hit it, dump it, split it
Don't, stop, get it, get it
Put it in reverse just to back it up
Let me put some Luda in it
Show me whatchu working with, I'll show you some of this bank, roll
Yeah, you a superstar, there's just one thang I gotta know, so
How low can you go? How low can you go? [x4]
I can go low (go low), lower than you know
Go low (go low), lower than you know [x3]

On the roof, it's peaceful as can be

And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now

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)

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)

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

I've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof)

And if this world starts getting you down

There's room enough for two

Up on the roof (up on the roof)
