Cee-lo  One For The Road chords
Start Jamming...
[N] [Dm] Yeah, mm-mm-mm.
Yeah, that sure feel good.
Hello.
I go by the name of Simply Cee Lo Green.
How do you do?
Welcome.
I thought I'd seize this [G] opportunity to tell you a [Dm] little bit
more about myself if you don't mind.
This is my vision.
You know what I'm saying?
Check
me out now.
[D] I have [F] millenniums of material and [Em] rivers of rhythm, [F] an entire ocean of emotion
that's enlightened to swimming.
Also a [B] forest of feeling, beaten [F] paths of feet.
Trapped
inside [F#] my silhouette, I have to speak to relief.
Demanding [F] more from the pen than [Em] a whore from
the pen.
The line between [D] playing to win and [Dm] sin is thin, but I walk it with [A] grace and
I talk [Dm] it with taste.
I am that raw, simply put, and I [D] rest my case.
It's elementary.
[F] Yet far more than resources [D] to pay the rent for me.
Everything that I've done is divine.
That's God.
He'll tell you.
Yeah, he mind.
So [F] you see, you don't need a lot of fuck out
of me.
That is the [Dm] last thing I plan to [F] be on this [D] LV.
But I'mma go swim up to something
more [F] comfortable and continue the [D] lesson.
No intervenion said at all.
I insist on leaving
[Dm] it in the present.
So relax.
[Em] [D]
Relax.
[G]
[Dm] [G] [Dm]
[F] [D] Just [Dm] relax.
[Em] [D] Right out.
[F] [D]
Relax.
[E] [Dm] Right out.
[F] [G]
Also [Dm] solicit visual [A] verbalism worth a visit.
Intensely [D] exquisite autism.
Inquire on who
is that?
It's a [F] deliciously daring delicacy.
[Dm] I do.
Oh, it's waving those [G#] words that won't
save us in thirds.
[Dm] Oh, that's awful.
Kind of you.
You're making [D] me blood.
I could use
some [Dm] competition, but [A] they're not making me much.
[D] Man, this beat is like my [F] master.
It's
making me buff.
[G] Hip hop is suffering, [D] meaning I'm a necessity.
Nothing but you like every
other rapper.
Cornrows and up and down.
But I get a hundred thousand dollars check every
three months off that.
Don't you fuck up, though.
My family is [G] a whole side of it.
[D] Now
how can I say, OK, let me [F] just put it [D] this way.
If anyone ever [C#] contest my conquest, my
gun, [G] bless your son.
Just takes one [F#] time to be one less.
You run and tell the rest that
I'm the best.
I [G] sang sweet, brang, keep the bang.
We all own the same street.
And it's
not that [Dm] often I verbalize the [A] essential element of [D] surprise.
I am not one of these rapper
guys, but this one will help you realize and [A] use both eyes to recognize the [D] type of action
that this amount of money buys.
Now listen, son, let me drop some shit on your man.
I
could just put [F] a hit on your man [Dm] with hot feet that'll make your heart [G#] beat quick on
[D] your name.
And Mr.
Dawson, the final [C#] pretty box to [D] fit on your name.
So relax.
[Em] [D] [Dm]
[Em] Just [Dm] relax.
[A] Young man, [Dm] you better [F] [D]
relax.
[Em] [F]
[D]
[Em] [Dm]
If I only had 16 more bars to live, [D] I'd get high and hopefully O.D. on an alternative.
I'd give a dim lit dream a color scheme and I'd [Dm] swim to the sun.
No matter how [D] impossible
that may seem, I bury my feet in the foundation of a forest.
It's someone with everything
there.
I would be long.
I will be right and [G] wrong.
But I'd be [D] rare.
And then I will pretend
I didn't care.
Lose my fear and pray that my [Dm] forever will be fair.
And I'd love you
all [D] unconditionally.
I'd get misty already missing you all.
And then I'd forgive those
who [Dm] rhyme to kill the time.
While my cult obey the consciousness that killed the spine,
I can heal the mind yet still survive.
[A] [Dm] Ride out.
[F] [Dm]
Relax.
[Em] [Dm] Ride out.
[F] [Dm]
[E] [Dm] Ride out.
[F] [G] Relax.
[Dm] [A] [D]
This is one for the road.
[E] [D] Yeah.
One time for your motherfucking mind.
[E] [Dm]
[F] [Dm] [A] One time [Dm] motherfucking play.
[Em] [Dm]
D.F. y'all.
[F] [D] Believe this.
[B] Yeah.
[G] [Dm] Shouts out to our cast.
This is [F] what I'm talking about.
[D] Yeah.
[Dm] Right.
Come on.
Where you at brother?
[D] All right.
Speak easy now.
Yeah.
[E] Can't nobody stop [Dm] me now.
No sir.
[D] Yeah.
I'm gone y'all.
[Dm]
[G] Oh man.
[Dm]
[Em] [D]
Yeah.
Somebody better
stop me.
[Em] [D] Cause I'm going.
[F] [Dm]
[E] [Dm]
Yeah.
[D] I can't stop laughing.
It feels so good.
I'm out here doing
my goddamn thing.
[F] Yeah.
