Chords for Bugzy Malone - Welcome To The Hood (ft. Emeli Sandé)

_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
Welcome to [E] the hood
_ [E] _ _ _ [D] _ _
[D] And I say welcome [F#] to the hood
Welcome to the hood
Welcome [A] to the place where nothing ever ends up good
And they say that [C#m] you're a disgrace if you can't find yourself a job
Around here [D] there's either been a drought
And then there's been a flood
[F#m] No one ever built an ark for anybody from the block
Man are trying [A] to ring the heavens but God never gets in touch
For certain people it's a must
To come across as tough cause you don't wanna [D] be a victim
When Beretta start to bust
And I say welcome to the hood
Welcome to the hood where no one teaches you to love
Because we're all products of lust
We learn [A] to tell a lie before we even learn to trust
And then we see [D] our people die as if the sorrow ain't enough
So and so killed so and so
I struggle to keep up
A victim of knife crime they hit him in the lung
The press [A] are making articles expressing their disgust
But where there's [D] no opportunity survival is a must
And I say welcome to the hood
Welcome to the hood
Where boredom leads to depression, depression leads to drugs
And drugs numb the pain of all the fucked up stuff
That you have to see when you're forced into growing up Nobody's responsible Everybody's corrupt
And school's a waste of time cause we're learning our books
And when [B] you're academic you get taken for a mug
[F#m] Cause mathematics won't help when you're in a puddle of blood
And I say welcome to the hood
Welcome to the hood
Feels like the only thing that ever settles is the dust
We try [A] and keep it clean but the stress builds up
And it was [D] all a dream
Until [D] Biggie got shot
[F#m] Welcome to the place that I call home
[C#m] Be careful it don't turn your [C#] heart to stone
_ _ [F#] Welcome to the war I'm [A] battling
_ _ [E] You live or you die
You [D] lose or you win
And I say [F#] welcome to the hood
Welcome to the hood
The person they [A] call mental health is the person that we call mum
We [E] either don't have a dad or we have more than one
And we're told [D] to fly the nest before we even learn to run
You [F#] don't have to be a soldier here to hold a gun
And watching other [A] people suffer is what we consider fun
Cause [E] suffering is standard
You'll have to toughen up
At least [D] that's what your mother tells you when she's fully [F#m] drunk
And you'll end up in the can, it's miles easier in jail
But you will understand
[A] Being a criminal is not part of the plan
But how are you supposed to work when nobody will take you on
So I say welcome to the hood
Welcome to the hood
Depression and anxiety get swept under the rug
These gangsters in your family
Welcome to the club because there's plenty of gangsters in a city full of thugs
Being born into the politics of poverty is rough
You can look down your nose holes but only God can judge
Most of us are afraid to pray to the above
Cause Pac said there ain't no heaven for us
Welcome to the hood
Welcome to the hood
Welcome to the place where nothing ever ends up good
And they say that every disgrace if you can't find yourself a job around [D] here
Has either been a draw or it's been a flood
[F#m] Welcome to the place that I call home
_ [C#m] Carefully don't turn your [F#] heart to stone
_ _ Welcome to the war of [A] battling
_ _ [F#] You live or you die
You [D] lose or you win It's [F#] here
Welcome to the hood
They say there ain't no heaven [A] for a thug
Seems like [E] my good ain't ever good [D] enough
_ Feels like [F#] I'm running, running [A] out of love
[E] You live or you die
You [D] lose or you win
They say [F#m] there ain't no heaven for [A] a thug
Seems like [B] my good ain't ever [D] good enough
Seems like my good [F#m] ain't ever good enough
Seems like my good ain't ever good enough
Seems like my good ain't ever _ [A] _
good _ [E] enough
Seems [A] like _ [D]
my good _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ ain't ever _ good enough
[C#] _ _ _ [D] Seems like my _ [F#m] _ _ _ [A] good ain't ever good enough
_ _ [E] _ _ Seems [D] like my good ain't ever good enough
Seems like my good [F#] ain't ever good enough
Seems like my good ain't ever good enough
Seems like my good ain't ever good enough
Seems like my good ain't ever good enough _ _
