[Intro] Em Am7 G 2x [verse 1]
Em                      
I'm a writer and a lover

      Am7            G
I'm a Midwest music man

Em
And I've been to a lot of places

             Am7         G
But I'm gon' end where I began

Em
I took class in Carolina

    Am7          G
Got high smoking joints

Em                   
And now they know my name in Paris

            Am7       G
But I'll be buried in Detroit
[Chorus 1]
           Em             Am7             G
Next to my father, and my father's father too

Em
I used to live in New York City

          Am7           G
But baby, that ain't no substitute

Em          
Not for my hometown

     Am7          G
That place people avoid

Em 
I've made love in every city          
But I'll be buried in Detroit [Bridge] Em Am7 G 4x [Verse 2]
Em
I don't claim to be a prophet

Am7             G
I just speak my mind

Em
I try to tell it like it is

             Am7           G
And sometimes God makes it rhyme

Em
I like my songs how I like my women

Am7               G
Honest and to the point

Em
You see I got fucked up in Stockholm
But I'll be buried in Detroit [Chorus 2]
           Em             Am7             G
Next to my father, and my father's father too

Em
I used to live in New York City

          Am7           G
But baby, that ain't no substitute

Em          
Not for my hometown

     Am7          G
That place people avoid

Em 
I've made love in every city          
But I'll be buried in Detroit [Bridge 2] Em Am7 G 4x [Verse 3 – Big Sean]
Em                                                
Man, I always kept it righteous knowing it would come back to me

Am7                                G
Even when my hunger was outweighing the strategy

Em
And I'd pray to God like I hope you a map for me

Am7              G
Up at 5 am like nobody want it as bad as me

Em
I guess hunger either kill you or it energize you

Am7              G
Motor city, boy, I been a driver

Em
The young Detroit legend, I swear I got the city inspired

Am7                 G
And bought….just to solidify it

Em
D-boy, D-boy, that's how I was raised

Am7                          G
Boss up and put the city on, forever my ways

Em
Me and ma started charity to give the kids clarity

Am7                           G
And take it further than the foundation we laid

Em
Thanksgiving Day parade, I got carried through the city

Am7                           G
And after that, I hope I get married in the city

Em
And after that, I hope I get buried in the city
Even when I'm gone, you still gon hear me in the city [Outro] Em Am7 G 8x
