[Intro]
(Eminem Sings)
Fm C#
Lately I've been hard to reach
D# Fm
I've been too long on my own
Fm C#
Everybody has their private world
D# C#
Where they can be alone
C# D#
Are you calling me?
C/E Fm
Are you trying to get through?
C#(hold)
Are you reaching out for me?
D#(hold)
I'm reaching out for you
[Verse 1]
(Eminem Raps)
Fm
I'm just so fucking depressed
D#
I just can't seem to get out this slump
C#
If I could just get over this hump
Cm
But I need something to pull me out this dump
Fm
I took my bruises, took my lumps
D#
Fell down and I got right back up
C#
But I need that spark to get psyched back up
Cm
And in order for me to pick the mic back up
Fm
I don't know how or why or when
D#
I ended up this position I'm in
C#
I'm starting to feel dissin' again
Cm
So I decided just to pick this pen
Fm D#
Up and try to make an attempt to vent
But I just can't admit
C#
Or come to grips with the fact
that I may be done with rap
D#
I need a new outlet
Fm
And I know some shit's so hard to swallow
D#
But I can't just sit back and wallow
C#
In my own sorrow but I know one fact
Cm
I'll be one tough act to follow
Fm
One tough act to follow
D#
I'll be one tough act to follow
C#
Here today, gone tomorrow
D#
But you'd have to walk a thousand miles
[Chorus]
(Eminem sings)
Fm
In my shoes, just to see
D#
What it's like, to be me
C#
I'll be you, let's trade shoes
Cm
Just to see what it'd be like
Fm
To feel your pain, you feel mine
D#
Go inside each others' minds
C#
Just to see what we'd find
Cm
Look at shit through each others' eyes
Fm D# C# Cm
Don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful
Fm D# C# D#
They can all get fucked, just stay true to you
Fm D# C# Cm
Don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful
Fm D# C# D#
They can all get fucked, just stay true to you
[Verse 2]
(Eminem raps)
Fm
I think I'm starting to
lose my sense of humor
D#
Everything's so tense and gloom
C#
I almost feel like I gotta check
The temperature of the room
Cm Fm
Just as soon as I walk in
it's like all eyes on me
D#
And so I try to avoid any eye contact
C#
Cause if I do that then it opens the door
D#
For conversation, like I want that
Fm
I'm not looking for extra attention
D#
I just wanna be just like you
C#
Blend in with the rest of the room
Cm
Maybe just point me to the closest restroom
Fm
I don't need no fucking man servant
D#
Trying to follow me around and wipe my ass
C#
Laugh at every single joke I crack
D#
And half of 'em ain't even funny like
(Eminem mocks a person)
Fm
Ha! Marshall you're so funny man
D#
You should be a comedian, god damn!"
(Back to him rapping)
C#
Unfortunately I am
Cm
I just hide behind the tears of a clown
Fm
So why don't you all sit down
D#
Listen to the tale I'm about to tell
C#
Hell we don't gotta trade our shoes
D#
And you ain't gotta walk no thousand miles
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 3]
(Eminem raps)
Fm
Nobody asked for life to deal us
D#
With these bullshit hands we're dealt
C#
We gotta take these cards ourselves
Cm
And flip 'em, don't expect no help
Fm
Now I could've either
D#
just sat on my ass
And pissed and moaned
C#
Or take this situation
in which I'm placed in
D#
And get up and get my own
Fm
I was never the type of kid
D#
To wait by the door and pack his bags
C#
I sat on the porch and hoped and prayed
Cm
For a dad to show up who never did
Fm
I just wanted to fit in
D#
Every single place every school I went
C#
I dreamed of being that cool kid
D#
Even if it meant acting stupid
Fm
And Edna always told me
D#
Keep making that face and
it'll get stuck like that
C#
Meanwhile I'm just standing there
Cm
Holding my tongue tryna talk like that
Fm
'Til I stuck my tongue on that
D#
frozen stop sign pole
At 8 years old
C#
I learned my lesson then
'Cause I wasn't trying to
D#
impress my friends no more
Fm
But I already told you my whole life story
D#
Not just based on my description
C#
Cause where you see it
from where you're sittin
Cm
It's probably 110% different
Fm D#
I guess we would have to walk a mile
In each others shoes at least
C#
What size you wear? I wear 10's
D#
Let's see if you can fit your feet
[Repeat Chorus]
[Outro]
(Eminem sings)
Fm D#
Lately I've been hard to reach
C# D#
I've been too long on my own
Fm D#
Everybody has their private world
C# D#
Where they can be alone
Fm D#
Are you calling me?
C# Cm
Are you trying to get through?
Fm D#
Are you reaching out for me?
C# D#
I'm reaching out for you
[Guitar Solo]
(Eminem speaks to his daugther Hailey)
Fm D# C#
Yeah,to my babies
Cm Fm D#
Stay strong, daddy will be home soon
And to the rest of the world
C# D#
God gave you shoes to fit you
Fm D#
So put 'em on and wear 'em
C# Cm
Be yourself man, be proud of who you are
Fm D#
Even if it sounds corny
C#
Don't ever let anyone tell
D# Fm-D#-C#-- x4
you you ain't beautiful so
