    it's Christmas in the ghetto,
    C
    Am

    Christmas in the ghetto,
    C

    it's Christmas in
    Am

    Merry Christmas to the
    C

    people in the ghetto,
    Am

    your family's the only
    C

    Santa Claus you ever know
    Am
    C

    It ain't no chimneys or stockings

    in the projects,
    Am
    C

    and if you get a gift it came out of pocket
    Am

    So be thankful
    C

    even if you get a small amount,
    Am
    C

    it ain't the gift it's the thought

    that really counts
    Am

    You know it's true
    C

    that money can't buy you happiness

    So count your blessings

    as you listen to me rappin' this
    Am

    And watch your kids
    C

    as they open up their presents
    Am
    C

    To see their faces lightin' up like heaven
    Am
    C

    I hope you got all the gifts

    that you asked for
    Am

    Just give me eggnog, Hennessy,
    C

    and some Mendo
    Am
    C

    On to the hood first stop,

    it's Glennie's house
    Am

    And get that bomb Christmas
    C

    dinner good lookin' out
    Am
    C

    And after that roam the hood

    till I'm dead broke

    And Merry Christmas everybody

    as I drink and smoke
    Am
    C

    They don't have rights
    Am
    C

    If I could say so
    Am
    C

    Once again
    Am
    C

    It's Christmas in the ghetto
    Am
    C

    Kids are having fun
    Am
    C

    The best way they know how
    Am
    C

    But Christmas in the ghetto
    Am
    C

    Ain't much to talk about

    It's Christmas in
    Am
    C

    With no toys for tots,

    not for the kids and wats
    Am

    We had to play in the streets
    C

    in front of the dope spots
    Am
    C

    And Christmas in the ghetto

    was a major event
    Am
    C

    That was the only time we seen

    what momma money was spent
    Am
    C

    And those were the days

    a nigga kinda felt shame
    Am
    C

    The only thing we afforded

    was a Monopoly game
    Am
    C

    We learned to make the be st

    out of whatever we had
    Am

    But no time to bitch and cry,
    C

    times was already bad
    Am
    C

    They started to get worse

    as a nigga grew up
    Am

    And when I think about those days,
    C

    shit was fucked up
    Am

    See I won't get off in
    C

    to a niggas life story
    Am
    C

    But Christmas in the ghetto

    wasn't no peaches and glory
    Am
    C

    Now I'll provide for my daughter

    just to see her smile
    Am

    It makes me feel good
    C

    cause that's my child
    Am
    C

    And it's still a gang of kids

    less fortunate than me
    Am

    Cause Christmas in the ghetto
    C

    is a burning tree
    Am
    C

    I don't have words
    Am
    C

    If I could say something
    Am
    C

    Once again
    Am
    C

    It's Christmas in the Ghetto

    December 25th, woke up with a fifth

    Taking pictures of my kids

    As they're cracking open their gifts

    On a day to give and hope to receive
    Am
    C

    Jehovah wit ness at my door

    Knowing they don't believe
    Am
    C

    We already know that Santa's
    Am

    ain't bringing us nothing

    That mommy and daddy
    C
    Am

    do ing all the stocking stuffing
    C

    The cookies and all the decorations
    Am
    C

    Preparing for the Christ

    mas celebration
    Am
    C

    Ain't nothing wrong with seeing

    a kiddo child smile
    Am
    C

    Opening presents,

    running around acting wild
    Am
    C

    Thinking back when that was me
    Am

    Mama worked hard
    C

    and looked it out for the family
    Am
    C

    We don't have much,
    Am
    C

    if I could say something
    Am

    Once again,
    C
    Am
    C

    it's Christmas in the ghetto

    Kids are having fun,
    Am

    the best we can do

    • 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.
