The Message chords by Dr. Dre
Verse 1
Dm
This one is for my brother,
Am
Tyree, R.I.P
Interlude 1
A message to God
Dm
Am
Verse 2
Dm
Since you finishin' 'em early,
what posessed you to start him?
We made a vow later we'll regret
Am
'til death do us part
Lord, I thought we was made
for each other
You shouldn't connect those,
made to be taken away from each other
Dm
Now what I'm supposed to do? I'm
only half the man that I was
I'll never last,
'cause my better half is up there with you
Am
You knew what you was doin' when
you made us; so with all due respect
You coulda forgave him, you
didn't have to take him
Dm
He can take the game with him, 'cause
he defines the word
Am
The one who puts the G in it,
Dm
Am
who you think put me in it?
I'm feelin like my whole world
is blinded wonderin' why
Cryin', pourin' out my heart,
pourin' out liquor behind it
Dm
We fought like brothers,
somethin' we never should do
We coulda used time spent
arguin tellin' the truth
Am
He had talent too,
I had plans on watchin' him grow
Don't know what hurts more - seein' him leave,
C
or watchin him go

Verse 4
Dm
If you wonder why (why
I live my life)
Am
The way that I do ('cause I got
to get this money)
Dm
So don't worry about me (don't worry,
don't worry worry)
Am
I'm just hustlin' everyday,
runnin this race, makin this paper
Verse 5
Dm
You'se a soldier,
you're probably packin heat up there
Met up with homies from the street,
and got deep up there
Am
If you only knew the way I felt before
they ruined the crew
I thought I learned from Eazy,
now I'm goin through it with you
Dm
We lost a thug, a son, and a father
I spoke to your son, the other day,
Am
and told him Uncle Dre got him
The Lord must be accidentally
pulling your file
Cause I'm still paging you,
911, straight in denial
Dm
Prayin' you get it,
but no man can choose the card he was dealt
You either quit, or you gon' play
'em like you get it
Am
I done been through all emotions,
from in shock, to keepin a poker face
To straight breakin down
and showin' all emotions
Dm
I'm anxious to believe
in real G's don't cry
If that's the truth,
Am
then I'm realizin I ain't no gangsta
It's just not me,
but you know I'mma always ride wit you
I miss you, sometimes I wish
I just died wit' you
