(A minor) Well, it?s ironic (C major) that the
chron (G major) ic that I smoke

That it?s affecting my judgment is
what some people would hope
But I'm not tripping, I'm on a journey,
come along now let's float
(C major) I
Verse 9

to the record store
But these days I stay pacing the floor
(G major) Somebody please take me back to when
the artistes were poor
'Cause when they made less
they gave us so much more
Verse 10
let's take (C major) it back to a ballroom,
cloudy microphone
Smokey Robinson, Nina Simone (A minor)
James Brown was still

When the songs weren't
sold off videos alone (C major)
Verse 11
(F major) Way back to when a star
attitude wasn't defined

sign a (A minor) damn (G major) autograph
(A minor) I mean (G major)

used to drive the Maybach
You dreamt about a (A minor) mil
but never made that
When you made some shit that
we could play back
I mean (C major) way
