All That I Got Is You Chords by Ghostface Killah, Mary J. Blige

[Bm] What they give you blood?
_ Three months man
What you doing in here anyway?
You ought to be home with your mama
How old are you boy?
_ Thirteen Thirteen?
Damn
[Bbm] [Ab] Them bastards must be running out of niggas to [Bbm] arrest
This goes out _
[Fm] To all the families
that went through the [Ab] struggle [Db] Yeah _
_ [Ab] With no heart
[Bbm] It was all from the heart
Everything was [Fm] real _ [Ab] Yeah
[Db] Dwelling in the past
Flashbacks when [Ab] I was young
Whoever thought I'd have a baby girl and [Bbm] three sons
But going through this difficult stage
I find [Fm] it hard to believe
Why my old earth [Ab] had so [Db] many seas
But she's her own woman
And due to me I [Ab] respect that
I saw a life of what it's really worth and took [Bbm] a step back
Family ain't family no more
We used [Fm] to play ball, eggs after school, eat [Ab] grits
Cause we [Db] was poor, grabbed the plies for the channel
Fixed the hanger on [Ab] the TV
Rocking each other's pants, the school [Bbm] wasn't easy
We survived winters, snotty nose with no [Fm] coats
We kept it real
But the older brother [Ab] still had [Db] jokes
Sadly, daddy left me at the age of [Ab] six
I didn't know nothing but mommy neatly
[Bbm] Packed the shit she cried
And grandma held the family [Fm] down
I guess mommy wasn't strong enough
[Ab] She just went [Db] down, check it
Fifteen of us in the three bedroom [Ab] apartment
Roaches everywhere, cousins and aunts
I was [Bbm] there four in the bed, two at the foot, two [Fm] at the head
I didn't like to sleep with John
[Ab] Johnny peed [Db] the bed seven o'clock
Plucking roaches out the cereal [Ab] box
Two shared the same spoon
Watched a Saturday [Bbm] cartoon, sugar water was a thing
Every meal was no [Fm] frill
In the summer, free lunch held [Ab] us down like [Db] steel
And there were days I had to go to text house with a [Ab] note
Statin' Gloria, can I borrow some food?
I'm dead [Bbm] broke, so embarrassing
I couldn't stand her knocking they [Fm] door
My friends might be laughing
[Ab] I spent stamps [Db] in stores
Mommy wears a toilet paper, used [Ab] the newspaper
Look, Miss Rose gave us a couch
She's [Bbm] the neighbor, things was deep
My whole youth was sharper than [Fm] cleats
Two brothers with muscular [Ab] dystrophy
[Db] Killed me, but I remember this
Mom's a lick of [Ab] fingertips
So I wiped the coal out my eye before school with a [Bbm] spit
Case worker had her running back to face the [Fm] face
I caught a case housing, tried to throw it [Ab] side of her [Db] place
Sometimes I look up at the stars and analyze [Ab] the sky
And ask myself was I meant to be here [Bbm] Why? _
_ [Fm] Yeah
_ [Ab] [Db] Yeah
All that I've got [Ab] is you
And [Bbm] I'm so thankful [Fm] I made it through
[Ab] _ [Db] All that I've got [Ab] Is you
_ _ [Bbm] And I'm so thankful
[Fm] I made it through
[Ab] _ [Db] All that I've
Got [Ab] is you
And I'm so
Word up, mommy, I love you
[Bbm] And I'm so thankful [Fm] I made it through
[Ab] _ [Db] All that I got [Ab] is you
_ [Bbm] And I'm so thankful [Fm] I made it through
[Ab] _ [Db] _ _
I [Ab] sit and think about
[Bbm] All the times we did [Fm] without them
_ [Ab] _ [Db] _ I always [Ab] said I wouldn't cry
[Bbm] When I saw tears in your [Fm] eyes
_ [Ab] _ [Db] _ I understand [Ab] that daddy's not here now
[Bbm] But some way or somehow
[Fm] I will always be [Ab] around, [Db] yeah
All the things that I did [Ab] from this to that
Oh, [Bbm] from drugs to being there
[Fm] Being down and out
And I'll [Ab] love you [Db] always, oh
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
Yeah, [Fm] _ you see
[Ab] _ [Db] You see, the universe
_ [Ab] Exists by the sun, [Bbm] moon, and star
And them [Fm] planets
Would [Ab] exist in my [Db] space
Like [Ab] man, woman, and child
_ [Bbm] You understand?
We got to keep [Fm] it real
What reality and [Ab] reality gonna keep [Db] it real with us?
I remember them good old [Ab] days
You can see, [Bbm] that's the child I was
What made me the man [Fm] I am today
You [Ab] _ [Db] see, cause if you forget where you come from
[Ab] You never gonna make it where [Bbm] you're going
Cause [Fm] you lost the reality of yourself
[Ab] [Db] So take one stroll through your [Ab] mind
And see what you will find
[Bbm] _ And you'll see your whole [Fm] universe all over again
And [Ab] again and again and again and [Db] again _
Yeah, [Ab] _ that's good
_ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ [Ab] _ [Db] _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _
