(D major) (E minor)
(C major) (D major) (E minor) (D major) (G major)
Verse 1
I was (E minor) an outcast,
outsider
Trouble- maker
A lost soul, outta control
In danger
Didn't have a care in the world
My feelings were numb
(D major) Never showing (E minor) emotion
Is easy for some
I don't know how it happened
How I got to this point
But I needed a way out
I was stuck in a ploy
(C major) I needed another (D major) path
or I'd self (E minor) destruct
I was (D major) down on my luck
My (G major) head was so (E minor) fucked
A menace rollin' the streets
(D major) is what I was
Hold (E minor) in' my heat and rollin' with
the serious thugs
You couldn't tell me a thing
I was (D major) like my brother
Words went in (E minor) one ear
and out the other
Slangin' and bangin'
With a (D major) chip on my shoulder
An in (E minor) sane, hit the brain
Certified street soldier
(C major) So (G major) close to the (E minor) grave
You at an early (D major) age
Can't tell you the (G major) price I've paid
(E minor) Oh, the sky overhead

Verse 2
(D major)
Is (E minor) like a (D major) canvas (E minor) of gray
I dunno how much (D major) time
(E minor) I'm be (C major) ginnin' (E minor) to save
From the first spring to (D major) light
(E minor) To the (C major) end of (E minor) the day
I'm just livin' (C major) my (E minor) life
Till they (D major) come carry me away
(E minor) I've been there in LA nights In the
Verse 3
(D major)
block where I came up
My pops used to (E minor) hate
When we hanged with them bangers
Guess he knew one day
(D major) that we'll become us
That's just how (E minor) it is when
you live where we come from
Fight, don't run
Is the (D major) motto we live by
Get 'em on the (E minor) ground
And stomp a mind about ten times (C major)
Sure we was just (E minor) kids back then
I (D major) had no remorse for
what we (E minor) did back then
Six of us, one call, we'd all pack in
Hit the strip,
and go and get the shit crackin'
Gun wars, and drug deals,
I seen 'em happen
When I started losin'
homeboys I wasn't laughin'
I looked all around and seen
None of 'em there
That's when I figured out
That nobody cared
If we (C major) lived or die
We'll just (E minor) get high and ride
And I (D major) wasn't gonna let this
happen (E minor) one more time
Verse 4
Oh, the sky overhead (D major)
Is (E minor) like a canvas of gray
I dunno how much (D major) time
(E minor) I'm beginnin' to save
From the first spring to (D major) light
(E minor) To the end of the day
I'm just livin' (C major) my (E minor) life
Till they (D major) come carry me away
(E minor) My mother would stand for me Every
Verse 5
(E minor)
step of the way
She did not (D major) judge me
She (E minor) told me I'd win some day
When I was at my lowest
When I had no focus
(D major) She pulled me out (E minor) the gutter
Said I wasn't hopeless
Every night she prayed for me
I was out on the street
(D major) Chillin' on the (E minor) corner with
the hand on my heat
Eyes open wide for the (D major) pigs and (E minor) foes
It's (D major) an every day hazard
when you hustle for doe
(E minor) So many nights I didn't come home
She (D major) thought the worst
Maybe some (E minor) body shot me down
Without any remorse
Maybe I hurt somebody
and I was (D major) stuck in a cell
Well, I (E minor) re gret all those times that
I put her through hell
When I reflect back on those days,
(D major) my heart aches
And everybody (E minor) I lost or let down
I wish I could take it all (C major) back
And make it better, but I (E minor) can't
So I try to make (D major) amends
And be there,
through (E minor) thick and thin
Verse 6
Oh, the sky overhead (D major)
Is (E minor) like a canvas of gray
I dunno how much (D major) time
(E minor) I'm beginnin' to save
From the first spring to (D major) light
(E minor) To the end of the day
I'm just liv (C major) in' my (E minor) life
Till they (D major) come carry (E minor) me away
Verse 7
Come carry (E minor) me away
Come carry me away
Come carry me away (C major) (D major) (E minor)
(D major) Come carry (E minor) me away
