[Fm] You're a sweet girl
[Eb] You're [Fm]
a sweet girl
You're
[Db] a sweet girl
[Eb]
[Fm] Your pillow talked to me about the men who [Db] tried to get in between
They buy [Ab] your pills and jewelry
[Db] They think your kindness is [Fm] so weak
No, you don't give it up so easy
But [Ab] you just wanted my [Db] attention
You [Ab] just wanted my affection
You got [Fm] me talking on your mind
[Eb] You [Fm] just want me all the time
[Db] Well, figure out I [Eb] shouldn't find a way
When they say that you displace my gear, it's fake
[Fm] But when you're ready, you know where I stay
When it comes to all these hoes, I'll never chase
But this world is such a, such an evil place
And [Ab] these hoes will [Eb] always find a way
Cause when I'm on the look [Fm] out, I go crazy
But for that pussy, you know I'm a [Bb] slave
[Fm] [Db]
This [Fm] place is never what it seems
Take me out of there
[Bb] Take me out [Fm] of LA
[Db]
This [Fm] place will be the end of me
Take me out of [G] there
[Fm] Take me out, you're all I am
I'm in this spider [Eb] porch cruising down the street
Black on black, [Fm] denim-colored tees
Keanu Reeves, way a nigga speak
Diamond cross hanging off of me
Fighting for my [Eb] soul constantly
And [Bb] slowly burning through this [Fm] levity
If you'd speak what I sing, you wouldn't sleep
I can't sleep
Cause I got everything I wanted
[Eb] Got the money, got [Fm] the cars, stealing with sauce
Got everything [Eb] I wanted
[Bb] But I'd be nothing without you
[Fm] Give you everything [Db] you wanted
[Ab] Give you power, give you life, give you space so you [Fm] can shine
Give [Eb] you everything you wanted
But [Db] none of that [Fm] matters to you
This [Ab] [Eb] place is never what it seems
[Fm] Take me out of there
Take me out of LA
This [Ab] place will [Eb] be the end of me
[Fm] Take me out of there
Take me out, [Ab] you're all I am
[Db]
She [Eb] [Fm]
[Db]
[Eb] [Fm]
[Eb] [Fm]
[Cm] [Fm]
[Eb] [Ab] [Cm] [F]
[Bb] [Ab] pulled up to the studio [Db] Nobody's watching
She closed [Ab] the door and then she locked [C] it
For me, [Fm] for me
We [Ab] had sex in the studio
[Db] Nobody walked in
I cut my [Eb] verse and then she popped [C] it
For me, [Fm] for me
LA girls [Ab] all look the same
I can't recognize
[Db] Same work [Eb] done on their face
I [Fm] don't criticize
She a cold-hearted [Ab] bitch with no shame
But her throat [Db] too far
She got chrome arms [Ab] hanging from her neck
And then she's going wild
[Eb] When she rides, she [Fm] holds tight
She's [Ab] gonna ride
Till [Eb] sweat fall [Db] down her spine
[Ab] She's all mine
[Eb] For [Fm] the night
She's [Ab] all mine
Until he [Fm] calls her line
She pulled up to [Eb] the studio
[G]
[Db] Nobody's watching
She closed the [Bbm] door and then she locked [C] it
For me, [Fm] for me
We had [Ab] sex in the studio
[Db] Nobody walked in
I cut my [Fm] verse and then she popped it
For me, for me
[Ab] [Db]
[Eb] For [C] me
[Cm] [Fm]
