Yeah, Its been a ride
I guess i had to go to that place to get to this one
Now some of you might still be in that place
If youre trying to get out, just follow me
Ill get you there
[Chorus]
C Ab
Im not afraid to take a stand
Eb Bb
Everybody come take my hand
C
Well walk this road together, through the storm
Ab
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Eb
Just let you know that, youre not alone
Bb C
Hola if you feel that youve been down the same road
[Verse 1]
C
You can try to read my lyrics off of this paper before I lay em
Ab
But you wont take the sting out these words before I say em
Eb
Cause aint no way Imma let you stop me from causing mayhem
Bb
When I say Imma do somethin I do it,
C
I dont give a damn what you think,
Im doin this for me, so fuck the world
Ab
Feed it beans, its gassed up,
if you think yo' stoppin me
Eb
Imma be what I set out to be,
without a doubt undoubtedly
Bb
And all those who look down on me
Im tearing down your balcony
C
No if ands or buts, dont try to ask him why or how can he
Ab
From Infinite down to the last Relapse album,
Eb
hes still shittin whether hes on salary, paid hourly
Bb
Until he bows out or he shits his bowels out of him
C
Whichever comes first,
for better or worse
Ab
Hes married to the game,
like a fuck you for Christmas
Eb
His gift is a curse,
forget the earth hes got the urge
Bb
To pull his dick from the dirt
and fuck the whole Universe
[Chorus]
C Ab
Im not afraid to take a stand
Eb Bb
Everybody come take my hand
C
Well walk this road together, through the storm
Ab
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Eb
Just let you know that, youre not alone
Bb C
Hola if you feel that youve been down the same road
[Verse 2]
Ok quit playin with the scissors and shit, and cut the crap
I shouldnt have to rhyme these words in the rhythm for you to know its a rap
You said you was king,
you lied through your teeth
For that, fuck your feelings,
instead of getting crowned youre getting capped
And to the fans, Ill never let you down again, Im back
I promise to never go back on that promise,
in fact, Lets be honest,
that last Relapse CD was ehhhh
Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground
Relax, I aint going back to that now
All Im tryna say is get back, click-clack BLAOW
Cause I aint playin around
Theres a game called circle and I dont know how
Im way too up to back down
But I think Im still tryna figure this crap out
Thought I had it mapped out but I guess I didnt
This f-cking black cloud still follows,
me around But its time to exercise these demons
These motherfu-kers are doing jumping jacks now!
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
And I just cant keep living this way
So starting today, Im breaking out of this cage
Im standing up, Imma face my demons
Im manning up, Imma hold my ground
Ive had enough, now Im so fed up
Time to put my life back together right now
[Verse 3]
It was my decision to get clean, I did it for me
Admittedly I probably did it subliminally for you
So I could come back a brand new me, you helped see me through
And dont even realise what you did, believe me you
I been through the ringer, but they can do little to the middle finger
I think I got a tear in my eye, I feel like the king of
My World, haters can make like bees with no stingers, and drop dead
No more beef flingers, no more drama from now on, I promise
To focus solely on handling my responsibilitys as a father
So I solemnly swear to always treat this roof like my daughters and raise it
You couldnt lift a single shingle on it
Cause the way I feel, Im strong enough to go to the club
Or the corner pub and lift the whole liquor counter up
Cause Im raising the bar, I shoot for the moon
But Im too busy gazing at stars, I feel amazing and
[Chorus]
Im not afraid to take a stand
Everybody come take my hand
Well walk this road together, through the storm
Whatever weather, cold or warm
Just let you know that, youre not alone
Holla if you feel that youve been down the same road
Em
Well I came upon a child of God
A7sus Em7
He was walking along the road
A7sus Em7
And I asked him Where are you going
This he told me
I'm going on down to Yasgurs farm
A7sus Em
Gonna join in a Rock `n' Roll band
A7sus Em7
Gonna camp out on the land
And set my soul free
chorus-
A7sus
We are stardust
We are golden
And we are billion year old Crabon
Em7
And we got to get ourselves
Em G A G Em
Back to the gar - den
Can I walk beside you?
I have come to lose the smog
And I feel to be caught in something turning
Maybe it's the time of year or maybe it's the time of man
I don't know who I am but life is for learning
chorus-
By the time we got to Woodtsock
We were half a million strong
And everywhere was a song and celebration
And I dreamed I saw the bombers riding shotgun in the sky
Turning into butterflies above the nation
chorus-
caught in the devils bargain
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden

Second best is never enough
You'll do much better baby on your own

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!!

What should I do, one thing on all fours
Now that that shit should be against the law
From side to side, let the ride, break it down (down down)
You know I like, when you hike and you throw it all around

From the couch to the counters in my kitchen

C G
You are only coming through in waves
C G
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
D A
When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse
D A
Out of the corner of my eye
C G
I turned to look but it was gone
C
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
G
The dream is gone
Asus A G C G D
And I________ have become comfortably numb

If you ain't here I just can't breathe

There's no gravity to hold me down,

for real.
G
But somehow I'm still alive inside

You took my breathe, but I survived

I don't how, but I don't even care

Use all your well-learned politesse

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

Well I, believe, it all, is coming to an end

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

I believe the world is burning to the ground

Oh well, I guess we're gonna find out

I drove by all the places we used to hang out getting wasted

I thought about our last kiss, how it felt the way you tasted
Bm G
And even though your friends tell me you're doing fine
D G
Are you somewhere feeling lonely even though he's right beside you?
D G
When he says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you?
Bm G
Sometimes I start to wonder, was it just a lie?
Bm G
If what we had was real, how could you be fine?
G
?Cause I?m not fine at all
D A
I remember the day you told me you were leaving
Bm G
I remember the make-up running down your face
D A
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Bm G
Like every single wish we ever made
D A
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
Bm G
And forget about the stupid little things

Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you

And the memories I never can escape

'Cause I'm not fine at all

If today I woke up with you right beside me

Like all of this was just some twisted dream
A Bm
I'd hold you closer than I ever did before

And you'd never slip away

And you'd never hear me say

I remember the day you told me you were leaving

Mind
[CHORUS]
C Em
How can I be strong I've asked myself
Am
Time and time I've said
F G/F C
That I'll never fall in love with you again
Em
A wounded heart you gave
Am
My soul you took away
F
Good intentions you had many
G/F C
I know you did
Em
I come from a place that hurts
Am
And God knows how I've cried

And I never want to return

Making love to you

Oh it felt so good and
F G/F
Oh so right
C, Em, Am, F, G/F, C
[CHORUS]
C
So here we are alone again
Am
Didn't think it'd come to this
F
And to know it all began
G/F C
With just a little kiss
I've come too close to happiness
Am
To have it swept away
F
Don't think I can take the pain
G/F C
No never fall again
C Em Am
Kinda late in the game
and my heart is in
G/F
Your hands
C
Don't you stand there and then
E
Tell me you love
Am F
Me then leave again
F Em G
'Cause I'm falling in love with
C
You again

Hold me

(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.

I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in a car / He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared / They'd seen his face before

Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords
I saw a film today oh boy / The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away / But I just had to look
Having read the book....

I'd love to turn.... you.... on....

Woke up, fell out of bed, dragged a comb across my head

Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up, I noticed I was late

Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream

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]

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

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

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

I'm gonna love you forever, forever & ever amen

As long as old women sit & talk about old men

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'

I'm gonna love you forever, forever & ever Amen

B D
This is fucking awesome
--Carry on with the same chords for the whole song--
Walk up to the club like, What up, I got a big cock!
Nah, I'm just pumped, just bought some shit from the thrift shop
Ice on the fringe, it's so damn frosty
The people like, Damn! That's a cold ass honkey.
Rollin' in, hella deep, headin' to the mezzanine,
Dressed in all pink, 'cept my gator shoes, those are green
Draped in a leopard mink, girls standin' next to me
Probably shoulda washed this, smells like R. Kelly's sheets
(Piiisssssss)
But shit, it was ninety-nine cents! (Bag it)
Coppin' it, washin' it, 'bout to go and get some compliments
Passin' up on those moccasins someone else's been walkin' in
Bummy and grungy, fuck it man
I am stuntin' and flossin' and
Savin' my money and I'm hella happy that's a bargain,
I'ma take your grandpa's style, I'ma take your grandpa's style,
No for real - ask your grandpa - can I have his hand-me-downs? (Thank you)
Velour jumpsuit and some house slippers
Dookie brown leather jacket that I found diggin'
They had a broken keyboard, I bought a broken keyboard
I bought a skeet blanket, and then I bought a kneeboard
Hello, hello, my ace man, my Miller
John Wayne ain't got nothing on my fringe game, hell no
I could take some Pro Wings, make them cool, sell those
The sneaker heads would be like Aw, he got the Velcros
What you know about rockin' a wolf on your noggin?
What you knowin' about wearin' a fur fox skin?
I'm digging, I'm digging, I'm searching right through that luggage
One man's trash, that's another man's come up
Thank your granddad for donating that plaid button-up shirt
'Cause right now I'm up in her skirt
I'm at the Goodwill, you can find me in the (Uptons)
I'm that, I'm that sucker searchin' in that section (Uptons)
Your grammy, your aunty, your momma, your mammy
I'll take those flannel zebra jammies, second-hand, I rock that motherfucker
The built-in onesie with the socks on that motherfucker
I hit the party and they stop in that motherfucker
They be like, Oh, that Gucci - that's hella tight.
I'm like, Yo - that's fifty dollars for a T-shirt.
Limited edition, let's do some simple addition
Fifty dollars for a T-shirt - that's just some ignorant (shit)
I call that getting swindled and pimped (shit)
I call that getting tricked by a business
That shirt's hella dough
And having the same one as six other people in this club is a hella don't
Peep game, come take a look through my telescope
Trying to get girls from a brand? Then you hella won't
Then you hella won't

I'm in my penthouse half naked
I cooked this meal for you naked
So where the hell you at
Just one shot left of this drink, in this glass
Don't make me break it
I wish that you were me
So you could feel this feeling
I never broke one promise, and I know when you're not honest
Now you got me yelling that's because I'm jealous
[Hook-]
If you keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Oh I'm jealous
If you keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Oh I'm jealous
[Post-Hook-]
Sometimes I want to walk in your shoes
Do the type of things that I never ever do
So I take one look in the mirror and I say to myself
Baby girl you can't survive like this
[Verse 2-]
Take it one step further
Freakum dress out my closet
'Yonce fillin' out this skirt
I look damn good I ain't lost it
And I ain't missed a beat
Boy you been hanging out at tonight
I'm staying out 'til tomorrow
Dancing on them tables ain't got no cares, no sorrow
I ran into my ex
Said what up to his besties
Now we reminiscing how we used to flex in Texas
Don't be jealous
[Hook]
[Post-Hook]
[Bridge-]
And I hate you for your lies and your covers
And I hate us for making good love to each other
And I love making you jealous but don't judge me
And I know I'm being hateful but that ain't nothing
That ain't nothing
I'm just jealous
I'm just human
Don't judge me

You can be kind to the one that you love

Em G
There was a time when I was alone
C G
Nowhere to go and no place to call home
Em G
My only friend was the man in the moon
C G
And even sometimes he would go away to
Em G
Then one night as I closed my eyes
C G
I saw a shadow flying high
Em G
He came to me with the sweetest smile
C G
Told me he wanted to talk for a while
Em G
He said Peter Pan that's what they call me.
C G
I promise that you'll never be lonely.
Am D
And ever since that day
[Chorus]
Em G
I am a lost boy from Neverland
C G
Usually hangin' out with Peter Pan
Em G
And when we're bored we play in the woods
C G
Always on the run from Captain Hook
Em G C G
Run, run, lost boy they say to me
Em G C G
Away from all of reality
Em G
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
C G
And lost boys like me are free
Em G
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
C G
And lost boys like me are free
[Verse 2]
Em G
He sprinkled me in pixie dust and told me to believe
C G
Believe in him, and believe in me
Em G
Together we will fly away in a cloud of green
C G
To your beautiful destiny
Em G
As we soared above the town that never loved me
C G
I realized I finally had a family
Em G
Soon enough we reached Neverland
C G
Peacefully my feet hit the sand
Am D
And ever since that day
[Chorus]
Em G
I am a lost boy, from Neverland
C G
Usually hangin' out with Peter Pan
Em G
And when we're bored we play in the woods
C G
Always on the run from Captain Hook

Run, run, lost boy they say to me

Verse 1:
I used to rule the world Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning, I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing Now the old king is dead, long live the king
One minute, I held the key Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
Chorus 1:
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin' Roman Cavalry choirs are singin'
Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason, I can't explain Once you'd gone, there was never, never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
Verse 2:
It was a wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string Oh, who would ever want to be king?
Chorus 2:
MIGUEL-
E
Hop on the back of my bike
A
Let the good wind blow through your hair
B
With an ass like that
And a smile so bright

Oh, you're killing me

You know it ain't fair

Ride on
Through the middle of the night
A
Let the moonlight kiss your skin

When you dance like that
Your jeans so tight

Oh, you're killing me

Baby, do it again
CHORUS-

You're beautiful

And your mind is ****ing beautiful
B
And I can't pretend that

That doesn't mean a thing to me, to me

Lyrics-
Take this pink ribbon off my eyes
I'm exposed
And it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know
Exactly where I stand
This world is forcing me
To hold your hand
Bm A G A
'Cause I am just a girl, little ol' me
Bm A G A
Don't let me out of your sight
Bm A G A
I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite
Bm A G A
So don't let me have any rights
G C (the G and C are palm muted)
Oh...I've had it up to here!
The moment that I step outside
So many reasons
For me to run and hide
I can't do the little things
I hold so dear
'Cause it's all those little things
That I fear
Bm A
'Cause I am just a girl
G A
I'd rather not be
Bm A
'Cause they won't let me drive
G A
Late at night
Bm A
I'm just a girl
G A
Guess I'm some kind of freak
Bm A
'Cause they all sit and stare
G A
With their eyes
Bm A
I'm just a girl
G A
Take a good look at me
Bm A G A
Just your typical prototype
G C (the G and C are palm muted)
Oh...I've had it up to here!
Bm-A-G-A thing 4 times>
G C (G and C muted)
Oh...I am making myself clear?
I'm just a girl
I'm just a girl in the world...
That's all that you'll let me be!
Bm A G A
I'm just a girl, living in captivity
Bm
Your rule of thumb
A G A
Makes me worry some
Bm A G A
I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?
Bm
What I've succumbed to
A G A
Is making me numb
Bm A G A
I'm just a girl, my apologies
Bm A G A
What I've become is so burdensome
Bm A G A
I'm just a girl, lucky me
Bm A G A
Twiddle-dum there's no comparison
G C (G's and C's muted throughout)
Oh...I've had it up to!
G C
Oh...I've had it up to!
G C Bm
Oh...I've had it up to here!
(slow down on the last G and let the final Bm ring out)
A
Johny's in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
D
Look out kid
It's somethin' you did
A
God knows when
But you're doin' it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend
E
The man in the coon-skip cap
In the big pen
A
Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten.
A
A
Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talkin' that the heat put
Plants in the bed but
The phone's tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the DA
D
Look out kid
Don't matter what you did
A
Walk on your tip toes
Don't try, 'No Doz'
Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
E
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
A
You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows.
A
A
Get sick, get well
Hang around an ink well
Ring bell, hard to tell
If anything is goin' to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write Braille
Get jailed, jump bail, Join the army, if you failed
D
Look out kid
You're gonna get hit
A
But users, cheaters
Six-time losers
Hang around the theaters
E
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin' for a new fool
A
Don't follow leaders
Watch the parkin' meters.
A
A
Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift
B
Look out kid
They keep it all hid
A
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
E
Don't wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
A
The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles.

A E B C#m
I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser
A E B C#m
Midnights become my afternoons
A E B
When my depression works the graveyard shift
C#m A E B C#m
All of the people I’ve ghosted stand there in the room
[Pre-chorus 1]
A E B
I should not be left to my own devices

Always rooting for the anti-hero

Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby
A E B C#m
And I’m a monster on the hill
A E B C#m
Too big to hang out, slowly lurching toward your favorite city
A E B C#m
Pierced through the heart, but never killed
[Pre-chorus 2]
A E B C#m A
Did you hear my covert narcissism I disguise as altruism
E B C#m
Like some kind of congressman (Tale as old as time)
A E B
I wake up screaming from dreaming
C#m A
One day I’ll watch as you’re leaving
E B
And life will lose all its meaning
C#m
(For the last time)
[Chorus]
A E
It’s me, hi
B C#m
I’m the problem, it’s me
A E B C#m
At tea time, everybody agrees

[Bridge]
A E B C#m
I have this dream my daughter-in-law kills me for the money
A E B C#m
She thinks I left them in the will
A E B C#m
The family gathers around and reads it and then someone screams out
A E B C#m
“She’s laughing up at us from hell!”
A E
It’s me, hi,

I’m the problem, it’s me
A E
It’s me, hi

I’m the problem, it’s me

Always rooting for the anti-hero.

Verse 1: C G Am F
Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill, but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks / Now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's gonna stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn
To win some or learn some
Chorus:
But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours
Verse 2
Well, open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and, damn, you're free
And look into your heart, and you'll find love, love, love, love
Listen to the music of the moment, people dance and sing
We're just one big family
And it's our God-forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved, loved
Chorus:
So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours
Bridge:
I guess what I've been saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do / Our name is our virtue
Chorus:
But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours
There's no need to complicate
'Cause our time is short
This, oh this, this is our fate, I'm yours
Oh, I'm yours
Oh, I'm yours
Oh, whoa, baby, do you believe I'm yours?
You best believe, you best believe I'm yours, mmm-hmm

Verse 1: Bbmaj7 Ebmaj7 Ebmaj7 Fmaj7
Girl I'm in love with you /
This ain't the honeymoon
Past the infatuation phase. /
Right in the thick of love
At times we get sick of love /
It seems like we argue every day.
I know I misbehave and you made your mistakes and
We both still got room left to grow.
And though love sometimes hurt, I still put you first
and we'll make this thing work but I think we should take it slow.
[Chorus]
We're Just Ordinary People / We don't know which way 2 go
Cause we're Ordinary People /maybe we should take it slow.
Take it slow-oh oh-oh-oh /This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow-oh oh-oh-oh /This time we'll take it slow
[Verse 2]
This ain't a movie naw /
No fairy tale conclusion ya'll
It gets more confusing every day. /
Sometimes it's heaven sent then we,
head back to hell again
We kiss, then we make up all the way.
I hang up, you call We rise and we fall
And we feel like just like walking away.
As our love advances We take second chances
Though it's not a fantasy I still want you to stay...
[Chorus]
[Bridge] Bbm Db/Eb
Maybe we'll live and learn, maybe we'll crash and burn
Fmaj7
Maybe you'll stay, maybe you'll leave, maybe you'll return
Bbm Db/Eb
Maybe another fight, maybe we won't survive
Fmaj7
Maybe we'll grow, we never know, baby you and I

I hope my children come and visit
once or twice a month

Why do we never get an answer, when we're knocking at the door
With a thousand million questions, about hate and death and war
Cause when we stop and look around us, there is nothing that we need
In a world of persecution, that is burning in its greed

It's not the way that you say it, when you do those things to me

That all the love you've been giving, has all been meant for you

What it's done to me, to lose the love I knew, you'd safely lead me through
F C G7sus C
Between the silence of the mountains, and the crashing of the sea
There lies a land I once lived in, and she's waiting there for me
But in the grey of the morning, my mind becomes confused
Between the dead and the sleeping, and the road that I must choose
