Chords

[Intro] Em G A C D [Verse 1]
Em
But now I'm in town, break it down
Thinking of making a new sound
G
Playing a different show every night
In front of a new crowd
A
That's you now, hello, ciao
Seems that life is great now
C                  D
See me lose focus, as I sing to you loud

Em                   G
I can't, no, I won't hush

                                 A
I'll say the words that make you blush

                    C   D
I'm gonna sing this now,  ow ow

Em
See, I'm true, my songs are where my heart is

G
I'm like glue, I stick to other artists

A
I'm not you, now that would be disastrous

C
Let me sing and do my thing

D
And move to greener pastures

Em
See, I'm real, I do it all, it's all me

G
I'm not fake, don't ever call me lazy

A
I won't stay put
Give me the chance to be free
C
Suffolk sadly seems to sort of suffocate me
[Chorus]
Em                                   G
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you

                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all

         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you

Em                                   G
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all

         D
You need me
[Verse 2]
Em
I sing and write my own tune
and I write my own verse
      G
Hell, don't need another wordsmith
to make the tune sell?
A
Call yourself a singer-writer
You're just bluffing
C
Your name's on the credits

         D
And you didn't write nothing

Em
I sing fast
I know that all my shit's cool
G
I will blast
And I didn't go to Brit School
A
I came fast with the way I act, right

C                       D
I can't last, if I'm smoking on a crack pipe

Em
I won't be a product of my genre

G
My mind will always be stronger than my songs are

A
Never believe the bullshit that fake guys feed to ya

C                                  D
Always read the stories that you hear in Wikipedia

Em
And musically I'm demonstrating

G
When I perform live, feels like I am meditating

A
Times at The Enterprise when some fella filmed me

C                           D
A young singer-writer like Gabriella Cilmi
[Chorus]
Em                                   G
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you

                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all

         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you

Em                                   G
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all

         D
You need me
[Verse 3]
Em
All I want in this cold world is to make music and use it

        G
Not to abuse it and get affected, infected with the who's who of music

     A
Who did it, who is it, who's in it or what the hell does it matter?

C                                   D                            Em
Chitter chatter, don't matter what a yidder, yidder, yadder, it don't matter to me

                                          G
All I want is a bit of dignity in me to battle this industry freely

                 A
To be me in this seedy, needy world, can you hear me?

C               D
Hey, so I keep singing that

Em
When I first started this rapping shit I felt pressure from haters

G
Became invaded with sadists and just developed a hater radar

A
And made for the stars, kept my grind in the dark

C                                D
And then appeared with a remedy kicking rhymes with a melody

Em
Hennesey shots and Glocks, all these fools on the block

G
Who said you gotta be a gangster now to raise to the top?

A
I'm just a normal, casual, usual, everyday type of guy

C                                   D
With my head in the sky, Ed Sheeran, Urban Angel coming ready to die

Em
So see the signs, stand to the side
Open your eyes and take a look and realize The resurrection's arrived and as the mist clears
C       D                         Em
I arise from my tomb in disguise, all alone, Alonestar

G
Urban Angel rising from the ashes

A                     C        D
Surprising all haters, guiding, now moving steady
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
You can find me in the club, bottle full of bub

G
Mummy I've got the X if you're into taking drugs

A
Into having sex, I ain't into making love

C                  D
Come give me a hug if you're into getting rough

        Em
You can find me in the club club, bottle full of bubbly

G
Mummy I've got the X if you're into taking drugs

A
Into having sex, I ain't into making love

C                  D
Come give me a hug if you're into getting rough
[Chorus]
Em                                   G
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you

                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all

         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you

Em                                 G
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all

         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you
[Bridge]
Em               G                  A
My eyes are red, I've been burning, I've been burning

Em               G                  A
My eyes are red, I've been burning, I've been burning

Em               G                 C                      D
My eyes are red I've been burning, I've been burning on a spliff off your high grade

Em               G                 C                  D
My eyes are red I've been burning, I've been burning, burning, burning
[Verse 4]
Em
Now where I come from burning weed it is a habit

G
A big fat bag of high grade weed, you know I got to have it

A
Cause if I don't have it in my pocket I'm going to panic

C                               D
Cause like I said where I come from weed smoking is a habit

Em
Yup, we'll do da bun in the place up in the hood

G
One of them things I have inherited like a ghetto man should

A
One of them things is smoking weed it yes it makes me feel good

C                              D
Burning high grade sensimilla, yes it makes me feel

Em
But me is a man, ah, talk about sensimilla is a drug

G
And if I start to smoke it I'mma-nna turn into a thug

A
Where I come from that they talking could that only get you mugged

C                              D
Where I come from burning weed it is a blessing from above

Em
Where I come from yes we bun it when we listen rub a dub

G
Where I come from yes we bun after we just-a make a love

A
Where I come from yes we bun it when the sun starts shine

C                   D
I blaze high grade weed all the time!
[Bridge]
D                    Em
Now my eyes are red

                                  G
Cause you need me, I don't need you

                               A
You need me man, my eyes are red

                               C
You need me man, I don't need you at all

         D                    Em
You need me man, my eyes are red

                               G
And you need me, I don't need you

                              A
You need me man, my eyes are red

                               C
You need me man, I don't need you at all

         D
You need me man, I don't need you
[Instrumental break] [Interlude] Same chord progression (Em G A C D) Woooah Woooah Woooah Yea [Verse 5]
                              Em
Cause with the lyrics I'll be aiming it right

                               G
I won't stop till my name's in lights
At stadium heights with Damien Rice
       A
On red carpets, now I'm on Arabian Nights

            C                                D
Because I'm young and all my brother's gonna give me advice

     Em
Long nighter, short height and I gone hyper

G
Never be anything but a singer-songwriter

A
The game's over but now I'm on a new level

C                       D
Watch how I step on the track without a loop pedal

Em
People think that I'm bound to blow up

G
I've done around about a thousand shows

      A
But I haven't got a house plus I live on the couch

   C                               D
So you believe the lyrics when I'm singing them out, wow

Em
From day one, I've been prepared

     G
With V05 wax for my ginger hair

           A                                           C
So now I'm back to the sofa, giving a dose of what the future holds

            D
'Cause it's another day
[Verse 6]
Em
Rucksack with the old clothes, I rap with cold flows

G
I'm back with the old jokes, in fact you don't know

A
On tracks I throw blows to make my punchlines relevant

C                                  D
If you can't keep up you'll get none, you're celibate

Em
My flows developing, skin lacks the melanin

G
Give me a shot of adrenaline and I get it in

A
Do it for the hell of it

                             C                        D
Cause ever since I hit the mainstream with The A Team I seem to sell a bit

Em
I took what held me back with the women, then I packaged the image

G
Put in some content, then I sold it back as a gimmick

A
The fact is this, I'll end up dating actresses

C                            D
Wake up on dirty mattresses, I think I'll need to practice this

Em
But I make shit happen, call me a laxative

G
World's on my shoulders, I don't even know what Atlas is

A
Hard bars sharp like a cactus is

   C                                     D
I'm back to rapping, back to back cause I've been practicing
I'm back to sing this [Chorus]
Em                                   G
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you

                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all

         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you

Em                                   G
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all

         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you
[Verse 7]
                 Em
Plus I'll keep my last name forever keep the genre pretty basic

         G
Gonna be breaking into other peoples tunes when I chase it

    A
And replace it with the elephant in the room with a facelift

     C                     D
Into another rappers shoes using new laces

Em
Selling CDs from my rucksack aiming for the papers

G
Selling CDs from my rucksack aiming for the majors

      A
Nationwide tour with just jack, still had to get the bus back

C                       D
Clean cut kid without a razor for the mustache

  Em
I hit back when the pen hurts me

    G
I'm still a choir boy in a Fenchurch tee

    A
I'm still the same as a year ago
But more people hear me though
C                            D
According to the MySpace and YouTube videos

    Em
I'm always doing shows if I'm not I'm in the studio

G
Truly broke, never growing up call me Ruffio

A
Melody music maker
Reading all the papers
C                                   D
They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator.
[Chorus]
Em                                   G
Cause you need me, man, I don't need you

                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all

         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you

Em                                   G
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               A
You need me, man, I don't need you

                               C
You need me, man, I don't need you at all

         D                     Em
You need me, man, I don't need you
