All of our bridges burned down

One more fucking love song I'll be sick
E B
You turned your back on tomorrow

Cause you forgot yesterday
F#
I gave you my love to borrow

But just gave it away

You can't expect me to be fine

Wondering why it wasn't you who came up from nothing

Made it from the bottom
Now when you see me I'm stunning
E
And all of my cars start with the push up a button
B
Telling me the chances I blew up or whatever you call it
G#m
Switched the number to my phone
So you never could call it
F#
Don't need my name on my show
You can tell it I'm ballin'
E
Swish, what a shame could have got picked

Had a really good game but you missed your last shot

So you talk about who you see at the top

But sad to say it's over for

Wiz like go away, got what you was looking for

Womb To Tomb
Verse 1
Lay down you gun, lay down your god
We are but germs on one big rock
The universe is spreading thin
It's up to us to bring it in
My suicide as sacrifice
Would keep the secret locked inside
And so I breathe my second life
Living proof, that love survives
Chorus-
Your life is not your own
From womb to tomb you are bound to others
3X
Verse 2-
There is no I, there is only we
So soon shall this whole wide world see
Around the sun which we believe
Take all but only what you need
Please take these words to paradise
Show them there is more than one good life
We are all one, once every time
We ask why
Chorus
Bridge-
We are here
We are now
We are this moment
We are loud
We are the answer
Of love you're after
There is no one son of god
We all are
Chorus

Outro-
Lay down you gun, lay down your god

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!

Oh, my, god. Becky, look at her butt.
It is so big. [scoff] She looks like,
one of those rap guys' girlfriends.
But, you know, who understands those rap guys? *scoff*
They only talk to her, because,
she looks like a total prostitute, 'kay?
[bass ostinato]
I mean, her butt, is just so big.
I can't believe it's just so round, it's like,
out there, I mean - gross. Look!
She's just so ... black!
Cm
I like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, wanna pull out your tough
'Cause you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh baby, I wanna get with you
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But that butt you got makes me so horny
Ooh, Rump-o'-smooth-skin
You say you wanna get in my Benz?
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average groupie
I've seen them dancin'
To hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet,
Got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' flat butts are the thing
Take the average black man and ask him that
She gotta pack much back
So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Has your girlfriend got the butt? (Hell yeah!)
Tell 'em to shake it! (Shake it!) Shake it! (Shake it!)
Shake that healthy butt!
Baby got back!
(LA face with Oakland booty)
Cm
Baby got back!
[Sir Mix-a-Lot]

I like 'em round, and big
And when I'm throwin' a gig
I just can't help myself, I'm actin' like an animal
Now here's my scandal
I wanna get you home
And ugh, double-up, ugh, ugh
I ain't talkin' bout Playboy
'Cause silicone parts are made for toys
I want 'em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Mix-a-Lot's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble
So I'm lookin' at rock videos
Knock-kneeded bimbos walkin' like hoes
You can have them bimbos
I'll keep my women like Flo Jo
A word to the thick soul sisters, I wanna get with ya
I won't cuss or hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna *fuck*
Till the break of dawn
Baby got it goin' on
A lot of simps won't like this song
'Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
And I'd rather stay and play
'Cause I'm long, and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on
So, ladies! {Yeah!} Ladies! {Yeah}
If you wanna roll in my Mercedes {Yeah!}
Then turn around! Stick it out!
Even white boys got to shout
Baby got back!
Cm
Baby got back!
Yeah, baby ... when it comes to females, Cosmo ain't got nothin'
to do with my selection. 36-24-36? Ha ha, only if she's 5'3.

So your girlfriend rolls a Honda, playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My anaconda don't want none
Unless you've got buns, hun
You can do side bends or sit-ups,
But please don't lose that butt
Some brothers wanna play that hard role
And tell you that the butt ain't gold
So they toss it and leave it
And I pull up quick to retrieve it
So Cosmo says you're fat
Well I ain't down with that!
'Cause your waist is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' bout stickin'
To the beanpole dames in the magazines-
You ain't it, Miss Thing!
Give me a sister, I can't resist her
Red beans and rice didn't miss her
Some knucklehead tried to dis
'Cause his girls are on my list
He had game but he chose to hit 'em
And I pull up quick to get wit 'em
So ladies, if the butt is round,
And you want a triple X throw down,
Dial 1-900-MIXALOT
And kick them nasty thoughts
Baby got back!

I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie
A brand new house on the road side, and it's a-made out of rattlesnake hide
Got a band new chimney that I put on top, and it's a-made out of human skull
Come on take a little walk with me baby, and tell me who do you love?
[chorus 1]
Who do you love?

Around the town I use a rattlesnake whip, take it easy baby don't you give me no lip

Mark my words
This love will make you levitate

But down to earth
If you choose to walk away, don't walk away
It's in the palm of your hand now baby
It's a yes or no, no maybe
So just be sure before you give it all to me
All to me, give it all to me
So you wanna play with magic
Boy, you should know what you're falling for
Baby do you dare to do this?
Cause I'm coming at you like a dark horse
Are you ready for, ready for
A perfect storm, perfect storm
Cause once you're mine, once you're mine (love trippin')
There's no going back
Rap part
(Same chords as the verse)
Uh
She's a beast
I call her Karma (come back)
She eats your heart out
Like Jeffrey Dahmer (woo)
Be careful
Try not to lead her on
Shorty's heart is on steroids
Cause her love is so strong
You may fall in love
When you meet her
If you get the chance you better keep her
She's sweet as pie but if you break her heart
She'll turn cold as a freezer
That fairy tale ending with a knight in shining armor
She can be my Sleeping Beauty
I'm gon' put her in a coma
Woo!
Fmaj
Damn I think I love her

Shorty so bad, I'm sprung and I don't care

Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand,

Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton
Talking in our beds for a week

The newspapers said,
"What are you doing in bed?"
I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace!"

Saving all your money for a rainy day
Giving all your clothes to charity
last night the wife said
Oh boy when you're dead
B
You don't take nothing with you but your soul
Think!
[Verse]
E
Made a lightning trip to Vienna
Eating chocolate cake in a bag
E7
The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head
They look just like two gurus in drag!"
[Chorus]
A
Christ, you know it ain't easy
E
You know how hard it can be
B7
The way things are going
E
They're gonna crucify me.
[Verse]
E
Caught the early plane back to London
Fifty acorns tied in a sack
E7
The men from the press say "We wish you success!"
"It's good to have the both of you back!"
[Chorus]
A
Christ, you know it ain't easy
E
You know how hard it can be
B7
The way things are going
E
They're gonna crucify me.

Now that she's back in the atmosphere
G F
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey

She acts like summer and walks like rain

Reminds me that there's time to change, hey, hey

Since the return from her stay on the moon
G F
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey
G D
Tell me did you sail across the sun
F C
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated
G D
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
Dm
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking at yourself out there
C
Now that she's back from that soul vacation
G F
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey
C
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
G F
Reminds me that there's time to grow, hey, hey
C
Now that she's back in the atmosphere
G F
I'm afraid that she might think of me as plain ol' Jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land
G D
Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
F C
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the Milky Way
G D
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Dm
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there
C
Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
G F
Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you're wrong
C G
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone conversation
F
The best soy latte that you ever had . . . and me
G D
Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
F C
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the Milky Way
G D
Tell me did you sail across the sun
F C
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated

Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star

And did you miss me while you were looking at yourself out there

It starts with one thing I don't know why
B
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
A
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme

To explain in due time

All I know, time is a valuable thing

Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings

Watch it count down to the end of the day
B
The clock ticks life away

It's so unreal, didn't look out below
B
Watch the time go right out the window
A
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know

Or wasted it all just to

Watch you go, I kept everything inside

And even though I tried, it all fell apart

What it meant to me will eventually be
B
A memory of a time when
[Chorus]

I tried so hard and got so far

But in the end it doesn't even matter

Acting like I was part of your property

Remembering all the times you fought with me

I'm surprised it got so far

Things aren't the way they were before
A
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
B
Not that you knew me back then but it all comes back to me

In the end you kept everything inside
B
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
A
What it meant to me will eventually be
B
A memory of a time when
[Chorus]

I tried so hard and got so far

But in the end it doesn't even matter

I had to fall to lose it all

Pushed as far as I can go

Yeah, I was just hangin' out
Some little west coast town
Found a bar out by the sand
So I made my way in
First thing that caught my eye
Like nothin' I ever seen
Sunburned auburn hair
A California dream
Yeah, she was shakin' them hips
To some old Motown song
I couldn't say a thing
So I sang along
She was a heartache on the dance floor
(Heartache on the dance floor)
Yeah, she's movin' through my mind
(Movin' through my mind)
I gotta know her name, and I got to see her again
She's got me wonderin'
Yeah, I'm just wonderin'
Where she at, where she at, where she at tonight?
Where she at, where she at, where she at tonight?
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah
So I just hung around
This little west coast town
I dropped by every night
I stayed 'til closin' time
My little mystery
That girl is killin' me
So I put on a song
Just to sing along
She was a heartache on the dance floor
(Heartache on the dance floor)
Yeah, she's movin' through my mind
(Movin' through my mind)
I've gotta know her name, and I got to see her again
She's got me wonderin', yeah, I'm just wonderin'
Where she at, where she at, where she at tonight?
Where she at, where she at, where she at tonight?
She's got me mesmerized
She's all I'm thinkin' 'bout
All I think about, think about, think about
So I'm right here, right now
Hummin' this little song
If I could say a thing
I'd want you to know
You were a heartache on the dance floor
(Heartache on the dance floor)
Yeah, you're movin' through my mind
(Movin' through my mind) oh
I got to know your name, I got to see you again
And if you're listenin', listenin', listenin'
Where you at, where you at, where you at tonight?
Where you at, where you at, where you at tonight?
Girl, I'm hangin' 'round this little town, yeah
(Where you goin', baby?)
Where you at, where you at, where you at tonight?
Where you at, where you at, where you at tonight?
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Chorus: Cmaj7 | B | Cmaj7 | B ( ending: | G | F Em | )
Blame it on the Goose (goose) Got you feeling loose (loose)
Blame it on Petron ('tron) Got you in the zone (zone)
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-a-a-alcohol
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-a-a-alcohol

Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-a-alcohol

[Verse 1] JADE
Ay, She say she usually don't
But I know that she front
Cause shawty know what she want
But she don't wanna seem like she easy
I hear you saying what ya won't do
But you know we probably gonna do
What you been fening deep inside
Don't lie now
[Pre-Chorus] TROY IN
Girl, What ya drinking Gone let it sink in
Here for the weekend Thinking, we can
See what we can be if we press fast forward
Just one more round If you're down, I'm for it
Fill another cup up Feeling on your butt-What?
You don't even care now I was unaware
how fine you was before my buzz set in(My buzz set in)
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Oooh, see? She spilled some drink on me
And now I'm knowing she's tipsy

And she keep staring me right in my eyes
No telling what I'm gone do
Baby, I would rather show you
What you been missing in your life
When I get inside

't' is thumb, 1,2,3 are 1st, 2nd, 3rd fingers respectively!
So the D chord (xx0232) picked like this
E-------------------|
B-----2-------2-----|
G---1---1---1---1---|
D-t-------t---------|t...... etc
A-------------------|
E-------------------|
The A chord (x02220) like this! nb finger '3' can be left out or played simultaneously with '2'!
E---------------------------|
B-------3-----------3-------|
G-----2---2-------2---2-----|
D---1-------1---1-------1---|
A-t-----------t-------------|t....etc

I hold out for one more drink
Before I think
I'm looking too desperately

Be closed in three weeks
That would be cool with me

A dark lit place
Or your place or my place

But mom isn't one of those, I've known her all these years.
CHORUS
Mommy's all right, daddy's all right, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, Surrender, but don't give yourself away....away, away--ay-ay-ay
VERSE 3
Whatever happened to all this season's loosers of the year?
Every time I got to thinking 'Where'd they disappear?'
Then I woke up, mom and dad are rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out.
CHORUS
Mommy's all right, daddy's all right, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, Surrender, but don't give yourself away....away, away--ay-ay-ay
C
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
F
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
C
Cryin' all the time
G
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit
F C
And you ain't no friend of mine
C
When they said you was high classed
Well, that was just a lie
F
When they said you was high classed,
C
Well, that was just a lie
G
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit
F C
And you ain't no friend of mine
