How long can you stand the heat

Out of the doorway the bullets rip, To the sound of the beat

There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man, And bring him to the ground
You can beat him, You can cheat him, You can treat him bad and leave him..
When he's down

But I'm ready, yes I'm ready for you
I'm standing on my own two feet
C G A B
Out of the doorway the bullets rip, Repeating the sound of the beat

[Verse 1]
C G
I'm waking up at the start of the end of the world
Am
But it's feeling just like every other morning before
F
Now I wonder what my life is going to mean if it's gone
C G
The cars are moving like a half a mile an hour and I
Am
Started staring at the passengers who're waving goodbye
F
Can you tell me what was ever really special about me all this time?
[Chorus]
Am F
But I believe the world is burning to the ground
C
Oh well, I guess we're gonna find out
Let's see how far we've come
G
Let's see how far we've come
Am F
Well I, believe, it all, is coming to an end
C
Oh well, I guess, we're gonna pretend
Let's see how far we've come
G
Let's see how far we've come
[Verse 2]
C G
I think it turned ten o'clock but I don't really know
Am
Then I can't remember caring for an hour or so
F
Started crying and I couldn't stop myself
I started running but there's nowhere to run to
C G
I sat down on the street, took a look at myself
Am
Said where you going man, you know the world is headed for hell
Say your goodbyes if you got someone you can
F
Say goodbye to
[Chorus]
Am F
I believe the world is burning to the ground
C
Oh well, I guess we're gonna find out
Let's see how far we've come (right now)

Let's see how far we've come

Now it's over for me

The moon's my teacher, and I'm her student

Not looking for cute little divos or rich city guys that just want to enjoy
Am F C Am
But having a very good time and behave very bad in the arms of a boy

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

It's the hard knock lCife (uh-huh) Dfor Eus
It's the hard knock lEife, Dfor Cus!!
Steada Treated,Cwe Dget Etricked
Steada kisses, Ewe gDet Ckicked
It's the hard knock life!! C D E
Verse
Just keep repeating C D E, E D C But here are the rest of the words-
From standin on the corners boppin
to drivin some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen
For droppin some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard
From the dope spot, with the smoke Glock
fleein the murder scene, you know me well
from nightmares of a lonely cell, my only hell
But since when y'all z know me to fail? Fuck naw
Where all my z with the rubber grips, bust shots
And if you with me mom I rub on your tits, and what-not
I'm from the school of the hard knocks, we must not
let outsiders violate our blocks, and my plot
let's stick up the world and split it fifty/fifty, uh-huh
Let's take the dough and stay real jiggy, uh-huh
And sip the Cris' and get pissy-pissy
Flow infinitely like the memory of my Biggie, baby!
You know it's hell when I come through
The life and times of Shawn Carter
Volume 2, y'all z get ready
Chorus
Verse
I flow for those 'dro'ed out; all my z
locked down in the ten by fo', controllin the house
We live in hard knocks, we don't take over we borrow blocks
Burn em down and you can have it back daddy, I'd rather that
I flow for chicks wishin, they ain't have to strip to pay tuition
I see you vision mama, I put my money on the longshots
All my ballers that's born to clock
Now Imma be on top whether I perform or not
I went from lukewarm to hot; sleepin on futons and cots
to King Size, dream machines, the green fives
I've seen pies let the thing between my eyes analyze life's ills
Then I put it down type braile
I'm tight grill with the phony, rappers y'all might feel we homies
I'm like still, y'all don't know me, shit!
I'm tight grill when my situation ain't improvin
I'm tryin to murder everything movin, feel me?!
Chorus
Verse
I don't KNOW how to sleep, I gotta eat, stay on my toes
Gotta a lot of beef, so logically, I prey on my foes
Hustling's still inside of me, and as far as progress
you'd be hard-pressed, to find another rapper hot as me
I gave you prophecy on my first joint, and y'all lamed out
Didn't really appreciate it, til the second one came out
So I stretched the game out, X'ed your name out
Put Jigga on top, and drop albums non-stop for ya, uh!
Chorus x2
... It's the hard knock life!!
................ it's the hard knock life!!

Way down south they gave a jubilee
And Georgia folks, they had a jamboree
They're drinkin' home brew from a wooden cup
The folks dancin' got all shook up
And started playin' that...

Verse 4-
Don't get to hear 'em play a tango
I'm in no mood to take a mambo
It's way too early for the congo
So keep on rockin' that piano
So I can hear some of that...

They try so hard to break out of their little world
You wave your hand and they scatter like crows
They have nothing that will ever capture your heart

Oh, be careful of them in the dark
And if I was the one
You chose to be your only one
Oh baby now, can't you hear me now

Where every night is just the same; You leave me lonely now
(Now) I know your window and I know it's late
I know your stairs and your doorway
I walk down your street and past your gate
I stand by the light at the fourway
You watch them as they fall
Ooh, and they all have heart attacks
They stay at the carnival, but they'll never win you back
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train
Where every night, every night is just the same; you leave me lonely
Will I see you tonight on a downtown train
Where every night, every night is just the same, all upon a downtown

Locked in the hotel, there's just somethings that never change
You say we're just friends, but friends don't know the way you taste, la-la-la

[Verse 1]
G Cadd9
He said I was in my early forties with a lot of life before me
Em D C
and a moment came that stopped me on a dime
G Cadd9
I spent most of the next days looking at the x-rays
Em D C
talking 'bout the options and talkin' 'bout sweet time
Em B7/D#
I asked him when it sank in if this might really be the real end
G/D C C D
How's it hit 'cha when you get that kind of news, man what'cha do
[Chorus]
G
I went sky diving
C
I went rocky mountain climbing
Em D C
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
G B7 Em D
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I gave forgiveness I'd been denying
C D G
and he said some day I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying
[Break]
G C Em C
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9
He said I was finally the husband that most the time I wasn't
Em D C
And I became a friend a friend would like to have
G Cadd9
And all of a sudden going fishin' wasn't such an imposition
Em D C
And I went three times that year I lost my dad
Em
Well I finally read the Good Book
B7/D# G/D C C D
and I took a good long hard look at what I'd do if I could do it all again and then...
[Chorus]
G
I went sky diving
C
I went rocky mountain climbing
Em D C
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
G B7 Em D
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I gave forgiveness I'd been denying
C D G
and he said some day I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying
B7 G Cadd9
Like tomorrow was a gift and you got eternity to think about what you'd do with it
D
What could you do with it
C
What could I do with it
Cadd9
What would I do with it
[Chorus]
A
I went sky diving
D
I went rocky mountain climbing
F#m E D
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
A C#7 F#m E
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I watched an eagle as it was flying
D E A
and he said some day I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying
A
To live like you were dying
Verse 1
Dm A
It used to be so easy to be your lover
Dm A
We wandered through the days like they had no end
Dm A
But now that you are gone, I'm undercover
Dm A
I just can't think about you as a friend
Chorus
D A
Take it easy on me, it should be easy to see
F#m Esus E
I'm getting lost in the crowd, nearly crying out loud
D A F#m
Just want you to know, I know that you have to go
B Bm7b5 A
It's all up to you, but whatever you do, take it easy on me
Verse 2
Dm A
So now I'll go the minstrel road without you
Dm A
I know there will be times when I'll need you there
Dm A
And each night as I sing those songs about you
Dm A
I'll think back to the time when you used to care
(Chorus)
Bridge
A Dsus D A
Take it easy on me, oh baby don't leave me cryin'
A Dsus D A
It should be easy to see, I've needed you for so long
Dsus D F E
Just one more chance, will you, one more chance will you take a chance
E Esus E
C'mon and take a chance
Solo
(Chorus)
B D Asus A
It's still up to you, but whatever you do, take it easy on me
GGGGGG.. DDDDDD.. CCCC..CC CC..CCCC
I'm packed and I'm Holding, I'm smiling,
She's living, she's golden and she lives for me
She says she lives for me. Ovation.
She's got her own motivation
She comes around and she goes down on me
And I make her smile like a drug for you
Do ever what you want to do
Coming over you
Keep on smiling, what we go through
One stop to the rhythm that divides you
D / C / D / C /
And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
Chop another link like a coda with a curse
And I come on like a freak show takes the stage
We give them the games we play, she said
GGGGGG.. DDDDDD.. CCCC..CC CC..CCCC
I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life
I want something else
I'm not listening when you say Goodbye
The sky it was gold, it was rose
I was taking sips of it through my nose
And I wish I could get back there
Some place back there
Smiling in the pictures you would take
Doing crystal myth will lift you up until you break
It won't stop I won't come down
I keep stock with a tick-tock rhythm and a bump for the drop
And then I bumped up
I took the hit that I was given
Then I bumped again
And then I bumped again
D / C / D / C /
How do I get back there to
The place where I dell asleep inside you?
How do I get myself back to
The place where you said
GGGGGG.. DDDDDD.. CCCC..CC CC..CCCC
I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life
I want something else
I'm not listening when you say Goodbye
I believe in the sand beneath my toes
The beach gives a feeling
An earthy feeling
I believe in the faith that grows
And the four right chords can make me cry
When I'm with you I feel like I could die
And that would be all right
All right
D / C / D / C /
When the plance came in
She said she was crashing
The velvet it rips in the city we tripped
On the urge to feel alive
But now I'm struggling to survive
The days you were wearing
That velvet dress
You're the priestess
I must confess
Those little red panties
They pass the test
Slide up around the belly
Face down on the matress
G / D / C / D /
One now you hold me
And we're broken
Still it's all that I want to do
GGGGGG.. DDDDDD.. CCCC..CC CC..CCCC
Feel myself with a head made of the ground
I'm scared but I'm not coming down
No, no, no
And I won't run for my life
She's got her jaws just locked now in smile
But nothing is all right
All right
I want something else
To get me through this
Semi-charmed kind of life
I want something else
I'm not listening when you say Goodbye...

Chorus: Em Am D G C Am Bm Em
If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own
Verse 1:
Can't live without me, you wanna, but you can't, no, no, no
Think it's funny, but honey, can't run this show on your own
I can feel my body shake, there's only so much I can take
I'll show you how a real queen behaves, oh
Pre Chorus:
No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But if I had one, it'd be bigger than yours
Chorus:
Verse 2:
Disobey me, then baby, it's off with your head
Gonna change it and make it a world you won't forget, oh-oh, oh
No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Pre Chorus:
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But I'm stronger than I ever was before
Chorus:
Bridge
In chess, the king can move one space at a time
But queens are free to go wherever they like
You get too close, you'll get a royalty high
So breathe it in to feel the love
So long that I've waited for a girl
To come into my life and in my world
I can't explain my feelings for you
I guess you're just all my dreams come true
And I'll be your lover, your lover
And I'll be your best friend, oh I'll be your friend
I'll be there when you're needing me, when you need me
I'll be your everything, your everything
I'll be your everything
I'll be all that you want and all that you need
I'll be your everything
I'll give you all that I have, my love, my life, and me
I'll be your everything
Now that we're together at last
We shouldn't think about our problems in the past
'Cause true love takes a miracle to find
I guess that I've been blessed 'cause I've got you by my side
And I'll be your lover, your lover
And I'll be your best friend, oh I'll be your friend
I'll be there when you're needing me, when you need me
I'll be your everything, your everything
I'll be your everything
I'll be all that you want and all that you need
I'll be your everything
I'll give you all that I have, my love, my life, and me
I'll be your everything
When you're lost and you're down
And you're seeing darkness
And there's no one there that can be found
Just turn around
I'll be there holding out my arms for you
Just reach for me, I'll be the one to set you free
I'll lift you up when you're feeling down
I'll make your whole world turn around
I'll give my heart and soul to you
To let you know this love is true
Intro- Em C D C
Verse 1-
Em
Nobody on the road, nobody on the beach.
C
I feel it in the air, the summer's out of reach.
D
Empty lake, empty streets, the sun goes down alone.
C
I'm driving by your house, though I know your not home.
Chorus-
G D
But I can see you, your brown skin shining in the sun.
C
You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby.
G D
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
C
After the boys of summer have gone.
Verse 2- (The same as verse 1)
I never will forget those nights.
I wonder if it was a dream.
Remember how you made me crazy,
Remember how I made you scream.
Now I don't understand what
Happened to our love.
But, baby, when I get you back,
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of.
(Chorus)

Verse 3- (Also the same as verse 1)
Out on the road today I saw a Black Flag
Sticker on a Cadillac.
A little voice inside my head said-
Don't look back, you can never look back.
I thought I knew what love was.
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever.
I should just let them go, but
(Chorus X2)

think to call me boy
Here I sit, tryin' not to cry
Askin' myself why, you do this to me
Since you're not around for me
To tell you baby face to face
I'm writing you this letter
And this is what I have to say
All I really wanted was some of your time
Instead you told me lies when
G#
someone else was on your mind
G#m
What'd you do to me? Look what you did to me
I thought that you were someone

Until you played

emotions and you made

Verse 1: C | Am | D | E7 G
I know when he's been on your mind
That distant look is in your eyes
I thought with time you'd realize it's over, over
It's not the way I choose to live
And somethin' somewhere's gotta give
A share in this relationship gets older, older
Pre Chorus: F
You know I'd fight for you but
G Am G C E7
How could I fight someone who isn't even there
F
I've had the rest of you now
G E7 F G
I want the best of you, I don't care if that's not fair
Chorus: C
Cause I want it all
G
Or nothing at all
E7 Am
There's nowhere left to fall

When you reach the bottom it's now or never
G C
Is it all?
G
Or are we just friends
E7 Am
Is this how it ends
G
With a simple telephone call?
F G C G
You leave me here with nothing at all
Verse 2:
There are time it seems to me
I'm sharing you with memories
I feel it in my heart but I don't show it, show it
Then there's times you look at me
As though I'm all that you could see
Those times I don't believe it's right I know it, know it
F
Don't make me promises baby
G Am G C E7
You never did know how to keep them well

I've had the rest of you now
