      You can give all of your love,But sometimes it won't be enough

                         

Never told me this day would come, Now I'm all gone

                    

You can give all your love - But sometimes it won't be enough Never told me this day would come

 

'Cause I was like

Baby, baby, baby nooo

LEAVING ON A JET PLANE

John Denver

 

D7     G                    C

All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go,

  I'm standing here outside the door

I hate to wake you up to say goodbye.

 

        G                       C

But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn',

The Taxi's waitin', he's blowin' his horn.

Already I'm so lonesome I could die.

 

        So kiss me and smile for me,

        Tell me that you'll wait for me,

        G                 Am          D7

        Hold me like you never let me go.

                   G       C

        'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,

        G               C              D7

        Don't know when I'll be back again.

            G      C        D7

        Oh babe, I hate to go.

There's so many times I've let you down, So many times I've played around,

I tell you now they don't mean a thing.

Ev'ry place I go I'll think of you, Ev'ry song I sing I sing for you.

When I come back I'll bring your wedding ring.

        So kiss me ...

Now the time has come to leave you, One more time let me kiss you,

Then close your eyes, I'll be on my way.

Dream about the days to come,  When I won't have to leave alone,

About the times I won't have to say.

Chorus:

             G                       D This land is your land, this land is my land

         A                      D From California to the New York Island

                 G                         D  From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters

A                              D  This land was made for you and me.

 

Verse 1:

          G                      D As I went walking that ribbon of highway

       A                    D I saw above me that endless skyway

        G                  D   I saw below me that golden valley

A                              D  This land was made for you and me.

Repeat Chorus

Verse 2:

              I roamed and I rambled and I followed my footsteps To the sparkling sands of her diamond desertsWhile all around me a voice was sounding-This land was made for you and me.

Repeat Chorus

Verse 3:

When the sun came shining, and I was strolling  And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling

       A voice was chanting, As the fog was lifting, This land was made for you and me.

Repeat Chorus

Verse 4: As I went walking I saw a sign there- And on the sign it said "No Trespassing."

      But on the other side it didn't say nothing,  That side was made for you and me.

Repeat Chorus

Verse 5:

                      G                        D In the squares of the city, In the shadow of a steeple;

              A                   D By the relief office, I'd seen my people.

                    G                     D  As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking,

A                             D  Is this land made for you and me?

Repeat Chorus

 

Verse 6:

Nobody living can ever stop me, As I go walking that freedom highway;

  Nobody living can make me turn back This land was made for you and me.

Repeat Chorus 2x

Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity

To seize everything you ever wanted?one moment

Would you capture it or just let it slip?

 

His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy

There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti

He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready

To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin

What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud

He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out

He's chokin, how everybody's jokin now

The clock's run out, time's up over, blow!

Snap back to reality, oh there goes gravity

Oh, there goes rabbit, he choked

He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy, no

 

He won't have it , he knows his whole back city's ropes

It don't matter, he's dope

He knows that, but he's broke

He's so stacked that he knows

When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's

Back to the lab again yo

This whole rap shit

He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

 

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

You own it, you better never let it go

You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

You own it, you better never let it go

You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

The soul's escaping, through this hole that it's gaping

This world is mine for the taking

Make me king, as we move toward a, new world order

A normal life is borin, but superstardom's close to post mortar

It only grows harder, only grows hotter

He blows us all over these hoes is all on him

Coast to coast shows, he's know as the globetrotter

Lonely roads, God only knows

He's grown farther from home, he's no father

He goes home and barely knows his own daughter

But hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold water his bosses don't want him no mo, he's cold product they moved on to the next schmoe who flows

He knows dove and sold nada

So the soap opera is told and unfolds

[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/one-shot-lyrics-eminem.html ]

I suppose it's old potna, but the beat goes on

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

You own it, you better never let it go

You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

You own it, you better never let it go

You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

 

No more games, i'ma change what you call rage

Tear this mothaf**kin roof off like 2 dogs caged

I was playin in the beginnin, the mood all changed

I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage

But I kept rhymin and stepwritin the next cypher

Best believe somebody's payin the pied piper

All the pain inside amplified by the fact

That I can't get by with my 9 to 5

And I can't provide the right type of life for my family

'cause man, these goddam food stamps don't buy diapers

And it's no movie, there's no mekhi phifer, this is my life

And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder

Tryin to feed and water my seed, plus

See dishonor caught up bein a father and a prima donna

Baby mama drama's screamin on and

Too much for me to wanna

Stay in one spot, another jam or not

Has gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail

I've got to formulate a plot fore I end up in jail or shot

Success is my only mothaf**kin option, failure's not

Mom, I love you, but this trail has got to go

I cannot grow old in salem's lot

So here I go is my shot.

Feet fail me not 'cause maybe the only opportunity that I got

 

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

You own it, you better never let it go

You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

You own it, you better never let it go

You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
