**Normal Tuning**

Intro (drums 'n bass)
I heard that payback's a mother fuckin' bitch
But I won't stress and I won't switch
And I would not take my life
Glory please, my God, the only thing on my mind
Takes up all of my time,
And I said, ooh!

Verse 1 (starts on Bb)
Bb
Running from a gun
        F
Or some brain that ways a ton

And my God, it hurts to get so low
Bb
Searchin' through the cars
             F
Cold, still searchin' through the night
             N/C/
I think I will run, to you, but
    Bb
I refuse to fuss and fight

And God may find a reason

Well I'm sure you'll find a rhyme

Because it takes up nearly all my time
F                 F#
He who stands for freedom
    F                  F#
God knows I've got the number

But maybe I just use too much

Verse 2
      Bb
I was sitting in that bar
    F
I'm sittin' in that stolen car
      Gm                          Eb
Cold, still rollin' down the boulevard
Bb
Saw you with a gleam
        F
And the microphone scene
              N/C/
'Think I will run, to you
           Bb
But I know I won't live for me
      Bb
Cause I know God's got both,
    F
the reason and the rhyme

I've been drinking, just like you

And baby, you've got something I can use

Verse(drum 'n bass and you can slide up the guitar if you want)

Payback's a mother fuckin' blast

But I won't stress and I won't blast

And I would not take my life

Glory please, my God, comin' from heaven above

Takes up all of my time And I said

Solo

Verse 3

You know, I did that line for Flava' Flave
     Bb
But, all the D.J.'s do it

All the D.J.'s use it
        N/C/

But I wanna be the same

And I know I'll find a reason

Maybe I'm just used too much.
