Capo 3 (Intro) [F] [Dm] [E] [Am]
(Verse)
As I [F]walk through the valley of the[Dm] shadow of death
I take a [E]look at my life and rea[Am]lize there's nothin' left
Cause [F]I've been blasting and[Dm] laughing so long,
That [E]even my mama thinks that my [Am]mind is gone
But I ain't [F]never crossed a man that[Dm] didn't deserve it
Me be [E]treated like a punk you [Am]know that's unheard of
You [F]better watch how you're talkin[Dm]g and where you're walking
Or [E]you and your homies might be [Am]lined in chalk
I [F]really hate to trip but I[Dm] gotta loc
As they [E]croak, I see myself in the [Am]pistol smoke, fool
[F]I'm the kinda G the little[Dm] homies wanna be like
On my [E]knees in the night saying [Am]prayers in the streetlight
(Chorus)
[F]Been spending[Dm] most their lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
[F]Been spending[Dm] most their lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
[F]Keep spending[Dm] most our lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
[F]Keep spending[Dm] most our lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
(Verse)
Look [F]at the situation they[Dm] got me facin'
I can't [E]live a normal life, I was [Am]raised by the streets
So I [F]gotta be down with the[Dm] hood team
Too much [E]television watching got me [Am]chasing dreams
I'm an [F]educated fool with[Dm] money on my mind
Got my [E]10 in my hand and a [Am]gleam in my eye
I'm a [F]loc'd out gangsta[Dm] set trippin' banger
And my [E]homies is down so don't a[Am]rouse my anger, fool
[F]Death ain't nothing but a[Dm] heartbeat away,
I'm [E]living life, do or die, [Am]what can I say
I'm [F]23 now, but will I[Dm] live to see 24
The [E]way things is going I don't [Am]know
Tell me [F]why are[Dm] we so[E] blind to[Am] see
That the [F]ones we[Dm] hurt are[E] you and[Am] me
(Chorus)
[F]Been spending[Dm] most their lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
[F]Been spending[Dm] most their lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
[F]Keep spending[Dm] most our lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
[F]Keep spending[Dm] most our lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
(Verse)
[F]Power and the money,[Dm] money and the power
[E]Minute after minute, [Am]hour after hour
[F]Everybody's running, but[Dm] half of them ain't looking
What's going [E]on in the kitchen, but [Am]I don't know what's cookin'
They [F]say I gotta learn, but n[Dm]obody's here to teach me
If [E]they can't understand it, [Am]how can they reach me
[F]I guess they can't, I[Dm] guess they won't
I guess they [E]front, that's why I know my [Am]life is out of luck, fool
(Chorus)
[F]Been spending[Dm] most their lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
[F]Been spending[Dm] most their lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
[F]Keep spending[Dm] most our lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
[F]Keep spending[Dm] most our lives, living[E] in the gangsta's[Am] paradise
(Outro)
Tell me [F]why are[Dm] we so[E] blind to[Am] see
That the [F]ones we[Dm] hurt are[E] you and[Am] me
Tell me [F]why are[Dm] we so[E] blind to[Am] see
That the [F]ones we[Dm] hurt are[E] you and[Am] me
