[Verse 1]
D# A#
Miss Jones taught me English
G# Fm
But I think I just shot her son
D# A#
'Cause he owed me money
G# Fm
With a bullet in the chest you cannot run
D# A#
Now he's bleeding in a vacant lot
G# Fm
The one in the summer where we used to smoke pot
D# A#
I guess I didn't mean it
G# Fm
But man, you shoulda seen it
A# (palm mute)
His flesh explode
[Chorus]
D# A# Fm
Slow motion see me let go
Fm
We tend to die young
D# A# Fm G#
Slow motion see me let go
G#
What a brother knows
D# A# Cm
Slow motion see me let go (G#*)
[Verse 2]
D# A#
Now the cops will get me
G# Fm
But girl, if you would let me
D# A#
I'll take your pants off
G# Fm
I got a little bit of blow we could both get off
D# A#
Later bathing in the afterglow
G# Fm
Two lines of coke I cut with Drano
D# A# G# (palm mute)
And her nose starts to bleed
(no chord)
A most beautiful ruby red
[Chorus]
D# A# Fm
Slow motion see me let go
Fm
We'll remember these days
D# A# Fm G#
Slow motion see me let go
G#
Urban life decays
D# A# Cm
Slow motion see me let go
(A#) G#
And at home
[Bridge]
G# A#
My sister's eating paint chips again
Cm G#
Maybe that's why she's insane
G# A#
I shut the door to her moaning
Cm
And I shoot smack in my veins
Cm
Wouldn't you?
G# A# Fm
See my neighbor's beating his wife
Fm
Because he hates his life
G#
There's an arc to his fist as he swings
A# Cm
Oh man, what a beautiful thing
A#
And death slides close to me
Cm A# (palm mute)
Won't grow old to be
(no chord)
A junkie wino creep
[Verse 3]
D# A#
Hollywood glamorized my wrath
G# Fm
I'm a young urban psychopath
D# A#
I incite murder
G# Fm
For your entertainment
D# A#
'Cause I needed the money
G# Fm (palm mute)
What's your excuse?
(no chord)
The joke's on you
[Final Chorus]
D# A# Fm
Slow motion see me let go
Fm
Oh yeah
D# A# Fm G#
Slow motion see me let go
G#
I...
D# A# Cm A#
Slow motion see me let go
