Eminem - The Real Slim Shady (Acoustic Version)
Capo 4. G-D-Em-C
[Verse]
G
Y'all act like you never seen a white person before
D
Jaws all on the floor like Pam, like Tommy just burst in the door
Em
and started whoopin her ass worse than before
C
they first were divorce, throwin her over furniture (Ahh!)
G
It's the return of the... "Ah, wait, no way, you're kidding,
D
he didn't just say what I think he did, did he?"
Em
And Dr. Dre said... nothing you idiots!
C
Dr. Dre's dead, he's locked in my basement! (Ha-ha!)
G
Feminist women love Eminem
chigga chigga chigga
D
"Slim Shady, I'm sick of him look at him,
Em
Walkin' around grabbin' his you-know-what
C
Flippin the you-know-who," "Yeah, but he's so cute though!"
G
Yeah, I probably got a couple of screws up in my head loose
D
But no worse, than what's goin on in your parents' bedrooms
Em C
Sometimes, I wanna get on TV and just let loose, but can't
but it's cool for Tom Green to hump a dead moose
G
"My bum is on your lips, my bum is on your lips"
D
And if I'm lucky, you might just give it a little kiss
Em
And that's the message that we deliver to little kids
C
And expect them not to know what a woman's clitoris is
G
Of course they gonna know what intercourse is
D
By the time they hit fourth grade
They got the Discovery Channel don't they?
Em C
"We ain't nothing but mammals.." Well, some of us cannibals
who cut other people open like cantaloupes [SLURP]
G
But if we can hump dead animals and antelopes
D
then there's no reason that a man and another man can't elope
Em
[*EWWW!*] But if you feel like I feel, I got the antidote
C
Women wave your pantyhose, sing the chorus and it goes
[Chorus: Eminem] (x2)
G
'Cause I'm Slim Shady, yes I'm the real Shady
D
All you other Slim Shadys are just imitating
Em
So won't the real Slim Shady please stand up,
C
please stand up, please stand up?
G
Will Smith don't gotta cuss in his raps to sell his records;
D
well I do, so fuck him and fuck you too!
Em
You think I give a damn about a Grammy?
C
Half of you critics can't even stomach me, let alone stand me
G
"But Slim, what if you win, wouldn't it be weird?"
D
Why? So you guys could just lie to get me here?
Em
So you can, sit me here next to Britney Spears?
C
Shit, Christina Aguilera better switch me chairs
G
so I can sit next to Carson Daly and Fred Durst
D
and hear 'em argue over who she gave head to first
Em
You little bitch, put me on blast on MTV
C
"Yeah, he's cute, but I think he's married to Kim, hee-hee!"
G
I should download her audio on MP3
D
and show the whole world how you gave Eminem VD [AHHH!]
Em C
I'm sick of you little girl and boy groups, all you do is annoy me
so I have been sent here to destroy you [bzzzt]
G
And there's a million of us just like me
D
who cuss like me; who just don't give a fuck like me
Em
who dress like me; walk, talk and act like me
C
and just might be the next best thing but not quite me!
[Chorus]
G
I'm like a head trip to listen to, cause I'm only givin you
D
things you joke about with your friends inside your living room
Em
The only difference is I got the balls to say it
C
in front of y'all and I don't gotta be false or sugarcoated at all
G
I just get on the mic and spit it
D
and whether you like to admit it [*ERR*] I just shit it
Em
better than ninety percent of you rappers out can
C
Then you wonder how can kids eat up these albums like valiums
G
It's funny; cause at the rate I'm goin when I'm thirty
D
I'll be the only person in the nursin home flirting
Em
Pinchin nurses asses when I'm jackin off with Jergens
C
And I'm jerkin but this whole bag of Viagra isn't working
G
And every single person is a Slim Shady lurkin
D
He could be workin at Burger King, spittin on your onion rings
Em,
[*HACH*] Or in the parkin lot, circling
C
Screaming "I don't give a fuck!"
with his windows down and his system up
G
So, will the real Shady please stand up?
D
And put one of those fingers on each hand up?
Em
And be proud to be outta your mind and outta control
C
and one more time, loud as you can, how does it go?
[Chorus] (x4)
Ha ha
Guess there's a Slim Shady in all of us
Fuck it, let's all stand up
