Cm
C
G
D

Yo, didn't you have like a major record
G

deal or something like that?

something like that.

That's a long story.
Cm

So what went down?
G

All right, I'll tell you.
D
G

Watch this.
Cm
G

Yo, yo, eight years ago, 1995,
D
G

me and my man from

Bed -Stuy was down to do a dive.
Cm
Eb

Back then, I rode the train
D
G

with a pad and a pen

But he had a whip and
Cm

asked me if I wanna ride
G
D

He helped me out with a part -time job
G

Where I worked at a car service,

even helped me learn to drive
Cm
G

And even though I was just
Db
D

getting to know the scene
G

I had more regular customers

than he'd ever seen
Cm
G
D

But see, we made a good team
G

Hooked up with a plan to

find a dispatcher

Who could make us more green
Cm
Eb
D

But I was green to the scheme
G

Content with trading in my gypsy

cab status for a limousine
Cm
C
Cm

Little did I know the plan
D

wasn't quite complete
G

Cause now we had to compete

with a whole fleet
C
G
D

Not to mention I was strictly on call,
G
C

so I couldn't even catch my own fares in the street, that's weak
G
D
G

My man got more and more shites than everyday,

try to say I should hit him for a piece of my pay
Cm
G
D
G

But when he robbed the dispatcher and they tried to blame me,

I had to cut him off in the worst way
Cm
G

I guess the moral of the story is,
D
G

to be dollar van glorious, you gotta know the biz
C
Cm
G
D
G

Cause it be's like that sometimes, even if you whip a fat rhyme,
Cm

you're still bound to have car trouble
G
D

Man, so that's why I don't trust
G

this record industry man
Cm

You don't know people trying to help you,
G

trying to hurt you
D

But what's so crazy is,
G

I'm on my way to this record label right now
Cm
G

Supposed to dis cuss giving me a deal or something,

you know what I'm saying?

I just don't know what to ask for,

you know what I'm saying?

I don't know how many, whatever it is, something about points,
Eb

royalties, you know what I'm saying?
G

But I need this deal back, yeah
Cm
G

Mmm, so you need a whip,
D

wondering what kind to get
G

Coupe, sedan, minivan, damn, better yet
Cm

A
G
D

SUV to roll over your competition
G

First of all,

slow down and analyze your mission
Cm
G

Who you rolling with, your girl,
Eb

your crew, your fam?
G

You need the night rider kit or the
Cm

A -team van
G
D

All you soloists are down with a band
G

Cause six in a two seat is not a good plan
C
D

Five hundred, five thou, five hundred thou
G

Will you settle for a hoopty or ride in style?
C
G

You want a dope car to
D

fly females could see
G

Or something simple to get you from point

A to

B
Cm
G

And how you paying for it?
D

What you prepared to do?
G

You talking cash on the table?

Damn, scared of you
Cm

If not, you're gonna
Db
D

have to finance
G

That means you in the bed

but ain't no romance, y 'all

You gotta pay the cost to sit

behind the wheel and shit

Most of your check going

straight to the dealership
Cm

Not to mention the mech
G

anics cost money

Cause getting stranded on the road
Cm

ain't nothing funny
G

And if you don't keep a charge and gas
D
G

Well that fast lane joyride

ain't gonna last
C
G

You need a whip that puts
Eb
D

miles on the gallon
G

And got enough power for

the uphill challenge
Cm

And I hope you know
G
D

where you're trying to go
G

Parking in the wrong spot

you get jacked to toe
Cm

So, I ain't trying to discour
D

age or bust your bubble
G

But if you land the wrong deal you're
Cm
D
G

bound to have car trouble
Cm

me up on right there man, I didn't know it was that serious man,
D
G

yo man, maybe I should
C
Cm
D

call these people and cancel, you know what I'm saying,
G

I don't think I'm ready for it,
C

you know what, better just stop right here, stop right here,

you know what, I'm just going
G

to think about this, I'm going to hop out and catch a train man,
Cm

good looking out.

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
