INTRO-
G... Cadd9... Am7... C... C.D. G...
VERSE-
G Cadd9
Saying I love you is
Am7 C D G
not the words I want to hear from you
G Cadd9
It's not that I want you
Am7 C D Em
not to say but if you only knew
Bm7 Am7
Ho-ow ea-sy
D G D/F# Em
It would be to show me how you feel
Bm7 Am7 D7 G7
More than words is all you have to do
G7 C
To make it real
C Cm G
Then you wouldn't have to say
Em7
That you love me 'cos
Am7 D7 G
I'd already know
BRIDGE-
G D/F# Em Bm C
What would you do if my heart was torn in two
C G/B Am7 D7 G
More than words to show you feel that your love for me is real
G D/F# Em7 Bm7 C
What would you say if I took those words away?
C G/B Am7
Then you couldn't make things new
D7 G
Just by saying I love you
(Repeat intro x2)
VERSE 2
Now that I've tried to
Talk to you and make you understand
All that you have to do is
Close your eyes and just reach out your hands
And touch me
Hold me close don't ever let me go
More than words
Is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say
That you love me
Cos I'd All Ready Know

[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…
Bass here-
(Dont tell me, I don't care, if you hurt)
(I don't tell you, you don't care)

Catch a little air when we cross the tracks

Well, you should know, that I haven't given up, I'm just on your radio
[Chorus]

Intro
G
G
You can be amazing
G
You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug
Em
You can be the outcast
Em
Or be the backlash of somebody's lack of love
C
Or you can start speaking up
G
Nothing's gonna hurt you the way that words do
G
And they settle ‘neath your skin
Em
Kept on the inside and no sunlight
C
Sometimes a shadow wins
D
But I wonder what would happen if you
G
Say what you wanna say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G
With what you want to say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G
I just wanna see you
Em
I just wanna see you
C
I just wanna see you
D
I wanna see you be brave
G
I just wanna see you
Em
I just wanna see you
C
I just wanna see you
D
I wanna see you be brave
G
Everybody's been there, everybody's been stared down
G
By the enemy
Em
Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing
Em
Bow down to the mighty
C
Don't run, stop holding your tongue
G
Maybe there's a way out of the cage where you live
Em
Maybe one of these days you can let the light in
C D
Show me how big your brave is
G
Say what you wanna say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G
With what you want to say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
Em G
And since, your history of silence
C
Won't do you any good
C
Did you think it would?
Em G
Let your words be anything but empty
C D
Why don't you tell them the truth?
G
Say what you wanna say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
G
With what you want to say
Em C
And let the words fall out
D
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you

E
He was a hard headed man. He was brutally handsome, and she was
terminally pretty. She held him up, and he held her for ransom in the
A7
heart of the cold, cold city. He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dude.
E B7
They said he was ruthless; they said he was crude. They had one thing
A7
in common; they were good in bed. She'd say, Faster, faster. The lights
are turnin' red.
E Tacet E Tacet E Tacet
Life in the fast lane surely make you lose your mind. Life in the
E Tacet
fast lane, mmmm.
Are you with me so far?
E
Eager for action and hot for the game, the coming attraction, the drop
of a name. They knew all the right people; they took all the right
pills. They threw outrageous parties; they paid heavily bills.
A7 E
There were lines on the mirror, lines on her face. She pretended not
B7
to notice; she was caught up in the race. Out every evening until it
A7
was light, he was too tired to make it; she was too tired to fight
about it.
E Tacet E Tacet E Tacet
Life in the fast lane; everything all the time. Life in the fast lane,
E Tacet
uh huh.
E
Blowin' and burnin', blinded by thirst, they didn't see the stop sign;
took a turn for the worst. She said, Listen, baby. You can hear
the engine ring. We've been up and down this highway; haven't seen
A7
a god-dam thing. He said, Call the doctor. I think I'm gonna crash.
E
The doctor says he's coming; but you gotta pay him cast. They went
B7 A7
rushin' down that freeway; messed around and got lost. They didn't
know they were just dying to get off.
E D/E
And it was life in the fast lane,
C/E A/E
life in the fast lane.

if all you have is leavin' im'a need a better reason to write you a love song today
promise me
you'll leave the light on
to help me see
(im guessing)- with daylight, my guide, gone (it sounds like something like that..)
'cause i believe there's a way
you can love me because i say
i wont write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one you see
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
is that why you wanted a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one you see
im not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
if your on your way
im not gonna write you to stay
if your heart is no where in it

Donate every dime you have?

Don't take the free ride in your own life

End up like a dog that's been beat too much
Till you spend half your life just covering up

I was born in the U.S.A., born in the U.S.A. now

Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand

Sent me off to a foreign land
To go and kill the yellow man

Born in the U.S.A., I was born in the U.S.A.
E B
I was born in the U.S.A., born in the U.S.A. now

Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man said Son if it was up to me
E
Went down to see my V.A. man

He said Son, don't you understand

I had a brother at Khe Sahn
Fighting off the Viet Cong

They're still there, he's all gone

He had a woman he loved in Saigon
| E | E | E | E |
I got a picture of him in her arms now

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery

I'm ten years burning down the road
Nowhere to run ain't got nowhere to go

I didn't mean it when I said I didn't love you so
I should have held on tight I never should have let you go
I didn't know nothing, I was stupid, I was foolish I was lying to myself
I couldn't of fathomed that I would ever be without your love
Never imagined I'd be sitting Here beside myself
Guess I didn't know you Guess I didn't know me
But if I knew everything. I've never felt
The feeling that I'm feeling Now that I don't hear your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips Cause I don't have a choice
Or what I wouldn't give To have you lying by my side
Right here, cause baby
Chorus 1
When you left I lost a part of me It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby please cause We belong together
Who else am I gonna lean on when times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place There ain't nobody better
Oh baby baby We belong together
Verse 2
I can't sleep at night When you are on my mind
Bobby Womack's on the radio
Singing to me If You Think You're Lonely Now
Wait a minute this is too deep [too deep]
I gotta change the station So I
turn the dial tryin to catch a break
And then I hear Babyface
I Only Think Of You it's breakin,, my heart
I'm tryin√¢ to keep it together but I'm falling apart
Im feeling all out of my element Throwing things, Cryin tryin
To figure out where the hell I went wrong The pain reflected and this song
Ain't even half of what I'm feeling inside I need you, need you back in my life
Baby

They look to the skies for some kind of divine
intervention, food goes to waste
So nice to eat, so nice to taste

Have you no idea how the Majity feels
So without love and a promised land
We're fools to the rules of the government plan
Kick out the style, bring back the jam

C#m
Came in from a rainy thursday
E B
on the avenue
C3m E B
thought I heard you talking softly

I turned on the lights, the tv

and the radio
C#m E B
still I can't escape the ghost of you
C#m
What is happened to it all?

Crazy, some say

Where is the life that I recognize?

gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday
A
there's an ordinary world
E B
somehow I have to find
B F#m
And as I try to make my way
A
to the ordinary world
A E
I will learn to survive
(The rest of the song is the same as above!)
Passion or coincidence
once prompted you to say
Pride will tear us both apart
Well now pride's gone out the window
cross the rooftops, runaway
left me in the vacuum of my heart
What is happening to me?
Crazy, some say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away
But I won't cry for yesterday
there's an ordinary world
somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
to the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Papers in the roadside
tell of suffering and greed
feared today, forgot tomorrow
ooh, here beside the news
of holy war and holy need
ours is just a little sorrowed talk
(Just blowing away)
And I don't cry for yesterday
there's an ordinary world
somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
to the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
every world is my world
(I will learn to survive)
any world is my world
(I will learn to survive)
any world is my world
every world is my world

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
Em C Em
It's the time, of the season When the love runs high

Eb Bb Cm Ab
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
[Verse 1]

I think I could need - this in my life and
Bm E
I think I'm just scared - I think too much
G
I know this is wrong it's a problem I'm dealing
[Chorus]

If you're gone - maybe it's time to come home

There's an awful lot of breathing room

But I can hardly move

If you're gone - baby you need to come home (come home)

Cuz there's a little bit of something me

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm E
And I think you're so mean - I think we should try

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

Verse 1:
Closed off from love I didn’t need the pain
Once or twice was enough And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass Before you know it you’re frozen
But something happened For the very first time with you
My heart melted to the ground Found something true
And everyone’s looking round Thinking I’m going crazy
[Pre-Chorus]
But I don’t care what they say I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away But they don’t know the truth
My heart’s crippled by the vein That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
[Chorus] Keep bleeding Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding Keep, keep bleeding love You cut me open
[Verse 2]
Trying hard not to hear But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds fill my ears Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal Is to keep me from falling
But nothing’s greater Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness I see your face
Yet everyone around me Thinks that I’m going crazy, maybe, maybe
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]

And it’s draining all of me

You chose to be your only one
Oh baby now, can't you hear me now

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

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

Laying Next to Me
Verse 1-
Must be my imagination, this feeling, this sensation
A serene hallucination, when you're laying next to me
No rules, no limitations, only minor hesitation
Cause I can't resist temptation when you're laying next to me
Chorus-
Every time I see your smiling face
I get a rush, I have to taste you lips,
Your body must be traced
My heart begins to race
Cause you're the only one I see
You're the only one I need
So please forgive me when I can't believe
You're laying next to me
Verse 2-
You're a treasure and a wonder, that I stumbled to discover
A spell I've fallen under and you're laying next to me
I can't help but want to pleasure, feel your body feel the pressure
Take you on a wild adventure when you're laying next to me

No reason to get excited, the thief, he kindly spoke,
There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke.
But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate,
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.

All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too.
Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl,
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl

I know there's something in the wake of your smile.

I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yea.
G A Bm
You've built a love but that love falls apart.
G Em
Your little piece of heaven turns too dark.

Listen to your heart when he's calling for you.

Listen to your heart there's nothing else you can do.

I don't know where you're going and I don't know why,

but listen to your heart before you tell him goodbye.
Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile.
The precious moments are all lost in the tide, yea.
They're swept away and nothing is what is seems,
the feeling of belonging to your dreams.
Listen to your heart...

And there are voices that want to be heard.

As I spy from behind my giant robot's eyes
I keep him happy 'cause I might fall out if he cries
Scared of heights so I might pass out if he flies
Keep him on autopilot 'cause I can't drive
Room enough for one I tell my homies they can't ride
Unless they sittin on the shoulders but that's way too high
Let's try not to step on the children
The news cameras filmin
This walkin project buildin
Now there's hoes sellin hoes like right around the toes
And the crackheads beg at about the lower leg
There's crooked police that's stationed at the knees
And they do drive-bys like up and down the thighs
And there's a car chase goin on at the waist
Keep a vest on my chest
I'm sittin in my room as I'm lookin out the face
Somethin to write about
I still got some damage from fightin the whitehouse, just a
Daydream
I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours
On a beautiful day
Daydream
I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day
[Lupe Fiasco]
Now come on everybody, let's make cocaine cool
We need a few more half naked women up in the pool
And hold this MAC-10 that's all covered in jewels
And can you please put your titties closer to the 22s?
And where's the champagne? We need champagne
Now look as hard as you can with this blunt in your hand
And now hold up your chain slow motion through the flames
Now cue the smoke machines and the simulated rain
But not too loud 'cause the baby's sleepin
I wonder if it knows what the world is keepin
Up both sleeves while he lay there dreamin
Me and my robot tip-toe 'round creepin
I had to turn my back on what got you paid
I couldn't see half the hood on me like Abu Ghraib
But I'd like to thank the streets that drove me crazy
And all the televisions out there that raised me, I was
Daydream
I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours
On a beautiful day
Daydream
I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day
Daydream
I fell asleep beneath the flowers
For a couple of hours
On a beautiful day
Daydream
I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours
Such a beautiful day

F Am G F
I was tired of my lady,
Dm C G Dm7 C
we'd been together too long
G F Am G F
like a worn out recording
Dm C Em7 F C
of a favorite song.
Gm F Am G F
So while she lay there sleepin'
Dm C G Dm7 C
I read the paper in bed
Gm F Am G F
and in the personal columns
Dm C Em7 F C
there was this letter I read.
F Am G F
If you like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and gettin' caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
if you're not into yoga
Dm C Em7 F C
if you have half a brain
Gm F Am G F
if you like makin' love at midnight
Dm C G Dm7 C
in the dunes of a cape
Gm F Am G F
then I'm the love that you've looked for
Dm C Em7 F C
write to me and escape.
F | Am G F | Dm | C | G Dm7 C | Gm
F | Am G F | Dm | C | Em7 F C |
F Am G F
I didn't think about my lady,
Dm C G Dm7 C
I know that sounds kind of mean
Gm F Am G F
But me and my old lady
Dm C Em7 F C
had fallen into the same old dull routine
Gm F Am G F
So I wrote to the paper,
Dm C G Dm7 C
took out a personal ad
Gm F Am G F
And though I'm nobody's poet,
Dm C Em7 F C
I thought it wasn't half bad.
F Am G F
Yes, I like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and getting caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
I'm not much into health food,
Dm C Em7 F C
I am into champagne
Gm F Am G F
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon
Dm C G Dm7 C
and cut through all this red tape
Gm F Am G F
At a bar called O'Malley's
Dm C Em7 F C
where we'll plan our escape.
F | Am G F | Dm | C | G Dm7 C | Gm
F | Am G F | Dm | C | Em7 F C |
F Am G F
So I waited with high hopes
Dm C G Dm7 C
and she walked in the place
Gm F Am G F
I knew her smile in an instant,
Dm C Em7 F C
I knew the curve of her face
Gm F Am G F
It was my own lovely lady
Dm C G Dm7 C
and she said, Aw, it's you.
Gm F Am G F
Then we laughed for a moment
Dm C Em7 F C
and I said, I never knew.
F Am G F
That you like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and gettin' caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
And the feel of the ocean
Dm C Em7 F C
and the taste of champagne
Gm F Am G F
If you like making love at midnight
Dm C G Dm7 C
in the dunes on the cape
Gm F Am G F
You're the lady I've looked for,
Dm C Em7 F C
come with me and escape
F | Am G F | Dm | C | G Dm7 C | Gm
F | Am G F | Dm | C | Em7 F C |
F Am G F
If you like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and gettin' caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
if you're not into yoga
Dm C Em7 F C
if you have half a brain
Gm F Am G F
if you like makin' love at midnight
Dm C G Dm7 C
in the dunes of a cape
Gm F Am G F
then I'm the love that you've looked for
Dm C Em7 F C
write to me and escape.
F Am G F
Yes, I like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and getting caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
I'm not much into health food,
Dm C Em7 F C
I am into champagne
F
Can't count the years one hand that we've been together
Dm
I need the other one to hold you
Make you feel, make you feel better
F
It's not a walk in the park to love each other
Dm
But when our fingers interlock
Can't deny, can't deny you're worth it
Bb
Cause after all this time
C F
I'm still into you
Bb C
I should be over all the butterflies
F
But i'm into you (I'm into you)
Bb C
And baby even on our worst nights
F
I'm into you (I'm into you)
Bb C
Let em wonder how we got this far
Dm F
Cause I don't really need to wonder at all
Bb
Yeah after all this time
C(hold) F
I'm still into you
F
Recount the night that I first met your mother
Dm
And on the drive back to my house
I told you that, I told you that I loved ya
F
You felt the weight of the world fall off your shoulder
Dm
And to your favorite song
We sang along to the start of forever
Bb
Cause after all this time
C F
I'm still into you
Bb C
I should be over all the butterflies
F
But i'm into you (I'm into you)
Bb C
And baby even on our worst nights

Let em wonder how we got this far

Cause I don't really need to wonder at all

F
Some things just, some things just make sense
Bb C
And one of those is you and I
F
Some things just, some things just make sense
Bb C
And even after all this time
Bb C
F
I'm into You
Bb C
Baby not a day goes by that
F
I'm not into you
Bb
Cause after all this time

I'm still into you

I should be over all the butterflies

But i'm into you (I'm in to you)

Got out of bed at all

The morning rain clouds up my window

And I can't see at all

And even if I could it'll all be gray
G D Em
But your picture on my wall

It reminds me that it's not so bad

It's not so bad

1ST VERSE
Em C D
Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin
G D Em
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
C D
I sent two letters back in Autumn, you must not have got 'em
G D
There probably was a problem with the post office or somethin'
Em C D
Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em
G D Em
But anyway, what's been up man, how's your daughter?
C
My girlfriend's pregnant too, I'm bout to be a father
D C
If I have a daughter, guess what I'm a call her
Em
I'm a name her Bonnie
C
I read about your Uncle Ronnie too, I'm sorry
D G D Em
I had a friend kill himself over some b**** who didn't want him
C D
I know you probably hear this every day, but I'm your biggest fan
G D Em
I even got that underground s*** that you did with Skam
C D
I got a room full of your posters and your pictures man
G D Em
I like that s*** you did with Rawkus too, that s*** was phat
C
Anyways, I hope you get this man, hit me back

Just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan, this is Stan

2ND VERSE
Em C
Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance,
D G Em
I ain't mad, I think it's just f***** up that you don't answer fans
C
If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your concert
D G D
You didn't have to, but you could've signed an autograph for Matthew
Em C
That's my little brother man, he's only six years old
D
We waited in the blistering cold for you
G D Em
For four hours and you just said no
C
That's pretty s****y man, you're like his f***ing idol
D C Em
He wants to be just like you man, he likes you more than I do
C
I ain't that mad though, I just don't like being lied to
C G D
Remember when we met in Denver, you said if I write you
Em C
You would write back, see I'm just like you in a way
D
I never knew my father neither
G D Em
He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
C
I can relate to what you're saying in your songs
D G D
So when I have a s****y day, I drift away and put em on
Em C
Cause I don't really got s*** else, so that s*** helps when I'm depressed
D C
I even got a tattoo of your name across the chest
Em C
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
D G D
Its like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
Em C
See everthing you say is real, and I respect you cause you tell it
D G D
My girlfriend's jealous, because I talk about you 24/7
Em C
But she don't know you like I know you slim, no one does
D G D
She don't know what it was like for people like us growin' up
Em C
You gotta call me man, I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose
D
Sincerely yours, Stan, p.s.
C
We should be together too
Em C D
My tea's gone cold, I'm wonderin' why
G D Em
Got out of bed at all
C D
The morning rain clouds up my window
G D Em
And I can't see at all
C D
And even if I could it'll all be gray
G D Em
But your picture on my wall
C D
It reminds me that it's not so bad
C
It's not so bad
3RD VERSE
Em C D
Dear Mr I'm-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans
G D
This'll be the last package I ever send your a**
Em
It's been six months and still no words
C
I don't deserve it
D
I know you got my last two letters
G D
I wrote the addresses on them perfect
Em C
So this is my cassette I'm sending you, I hope you hear it
D G D
I'm in the car right now, I'm doin' 90 on the freeway
Em C D
Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, dare me to drive?
C
You know that song by Phil Collins, In the Air of the Night
Em C
About that guy who could've saved that other guy from drowning
D G D
But didn't, but Phil saw it all, then at a show he found him
Em C
That's kinda how this is, you could've rescued me from drowning
D G D
Now it's too late, I'm on a 1,000 downers now, I'm drowsy
Em C
And all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
D G D
I hope you know I ripped all of your pictures off my wall
Em C D
I love you Slim, we could've been together, think about it
C Em
You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it
C
And when you dream, I hope you can't sleep and you scream about it
D G D Em
I hope your conscience eats at you and you can't breathe without me
C
See Slim, shut up b****, I'm trying to talk
D G D
Hey Slim, that's my girlfriend screamin' in the trunk
Em C
But I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain't like you
D G D Em
Cause if she suffocates, she'll suffer more, then she'll die too
C D
Well, gotta go, I'm almost under the bridge now
C
Oh s***, I forgot, how am I supposed to send this s*** out?
Em C D C (2x)
Em C D
My tea's gone cold, I'm wonderin' why
G D Em
Got out of bed at all
C D
The morning rain clouds up my window
G D Em
And I can't see at all
C D
And even if I could it'll all be gray
G D Em
But your picture on my wall
C D
It reminds me that it's not so bad
C
It's not so bad
4TH VERSE
Em C
Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner, but I've just been busy
D G D
You say your girlfriend's pregnant now, how far along is she?
Em C
Look, I'm really flattered you would call your daughter that
D
And here's an autograph for your brother
G D Em
I wrote it on this Starter cap
C
I'm sorry I didn't see you at the show, I must've missed you
D G D Em
Don't think I did that s*** intentionally just to dis you
C D
But what's that s*** you said about you like to cut your wrists too?
D
I say that s*** just clownin' dog
Em
C'mon, how f***ed up is you?
C
You got some issues, Stan, I think you need some counseling
D G D Em
To keep your a** from bouncin' off the walls when you get down some
C
And what's this s*** about us meant to be together?
D G D Em
That type of s*** will make me not want us to meet each other
C
I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
D G
Or maybe you just need to treat her better
D Em C
I hope you get to read this letter, I hope it reaches you in time
D C
Before you hurt yourself, I think that you'll be doin just fine
Em C
If you relax a little, I'm glad that I inspire you, but Stan
D G D Em
Why are you so mad? Try to understand, that I do want you as a fan
C
I just don't want you to do some crazy s***
D G D Em
I seen this one s*** on the news a couple of weeks ago that made me sick
C
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
D G D
And had his girlfriend in his trunk and she was pregnant with his kid
Em C
And in the car they found a tape, didn't say who it was to
D C Em
Come to think about it, his name was, it was you...
Em
Damn

Now, the king told the boogie men,
G7 Dm7
--More--(4%)
you have to let that raga drop.
A7 Em7
The oil down the desert way
G7 Dm7
has been shaking to the top.
A7 Em7
The sheik he drove his cadillac
G7 Dm7
he went a cruisin down the ville.
A7 Em7
The Muezzin was a standing
Fmaj7
On the radiator grille.
chorus-
Dm7 A7 G7
Shareef don't like it.
Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 A7
Rock the Casbah. Rock the Casbah.
Dm7 A7 G7
Shareef don't like it.
Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 A7
Rock the Casbah. Rock the Casbah.
By order of the prophet
We ban that boogie sound.
Degenerate the faithful
With that crazy Casbah sound.
But the Bedouin, they brought out the electric camel drum.
The local guitar picker got his guitar picking thumb.
As soon as the Shareef had cleared the square,
They began to wail.
Chorus
Now over at the temple
Oh, they really pack em in.
The in crowd say it's cool
To dig this chanting thing.
But as the wind changed direction
and the temple band took five
The crowd got a whiff
Of that crazy casbah jive.
Chorus
The king called up his jet fighters,
He said, you better earn your pay.
Drop your bombs down between the minarets
Down the casbah way.
As sson as the Shareef was chauffered out of there,
The jet pilote tuned to the cockpit radio blare.
As soon as the Shareef was outta their hair
The jet pilots wailed.
Chorus to extro.
