Chords for Eminem ft. Beyoncé - Walk On Water (Official Lyric Video)

_ I [Gm] want _ [Am] water, _ _ _ [Dm] _ but I ain't [G] no Jesus.
_ _ [C] I [Gm] _
want [Am] water, _ _ _ [Dm] _ but only when it [G] _ freezes.
_ [Am] _
Why are expectations so high?
Is it the bar I [F] set, my arms I stretch, but I can't reach?
A far [C] cry from it, or it's in my grasp, but as soon [Am] as I grab, squeeze,
I lose my grip like the flying trapeze.
Into the dark I plummet, now [F] the sky's blackening, I know the marks,
high [C] butterflies rip apart my stomach, knowing that no matter [Dm] what bars I come with,
you're gonna heart gripe, and that's a hard fight getting to swallow.
So I [F] scrap these, as pressure increases [G] like khakis, I feel the ice cracking, [C] because
I [Bb] want _ [Am] water, _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
but I ain't no [G] Jesus.
_ _ [C]
I want [Bb] _ [Am] water, _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ but only when [G] it freezes.
[Am] It's the curse of the standard that the first of the matters discs set,
always in search of the verse that I haven't spit [F] yet.
Will this step just be another [C] misstep to tarnish whatever the legacy, love, or [Am] respect
I've garnered?
The rhyme has to be perfect, the delivery flawless,
[F] and it always feels like I'm hitting the mark, till I go [C] sit in the car, listen, and pick it apart,
[Dm] like this shit is garbage.
God's given me [F] all this, still I feel [Dm] no different regardless.
[F] Kids look to me as a god, this is retarded, [G] if only they knew, it's a facade and it's [Dm] exhaustive.
And I try not to listen to nonsense, but [Am] if you bitches are trying to [Dm] strip me of my confidence,
[F] mission accomplished.
I'm not God sent, [G] Nas, Rakim, Pac, Big, James, Todd, Smith, and I'm not [C] Prince.
I _ [Bb] want [Am]
water, _ _ _ [Dm] _ but I ain't [G] no Jesus.
_ [C] I [Bb] want _ [Am] water, _ _ _ [Dm] _
but only when it [G] freezes.
Cause I'm [F] only human, [G] just like [Am] you, [C] making [F] my mistakes.
Oh, if [G] you only [Am] knew, [C] I don't think you [F] should believe in me,
[G] the way that [Am] you do, [Em] cause I'm terrified [C] to let [G] you down.
Oh, [Am] it's true, I'm a Rubix, a beautiful mess, at times juvenile, yes, I goof and [F] I jest, _
a flawed [C] human, I guess, but I'm doing my best to not ruin [Am] your expectations and meet them,
but first, the speed em verse, now Big Sean, he's going too fast, is he gonna [F] shout or curse out his mom?
There was a time [C] I had the world by the balls, eating out my palm, [Dm] every album song,
I was spazzing the fuck out on, and now I'm getting clowned and frowned on,
[F] but the only one who's looking down on me that matters, [G] now's Deshawn, am I lucky to be around this [Dm] long?
_ Begs the question though, especially after the methadone is yesterday [F] fades,
and the Dresden home is burnt to the [G] ground, and all that's left of my house is lawn,
the crowds [Am] are gone, and it's time to wash out the blonde, sales decline, the [F] curtains drawn,
they're closing the set, I'm still poking my head from out [C] behind, and everyone who has [Am] doubt, remind,
_ now take your best rhyme, outdo it, now do it a [F] thousand times,
now let them tell you the world [C] no longer cares or gives a fuck about your [Dm] rhymes,
_ and as I grow out of sight, out of mind, I might go out of mine,
[F] cause how do I ever let this mic go without [G] a fight, when I'm made of fucking tight robotic [Dm] twine,
_ but when I do fall from these heights though I'll be fine, I [F] won't pout a cry or spiral down a wine,
[G] but I'll decide if it's my final bout this time [C] around, cause [Bb] I'll walk on [Am] water, _ _ _ [Dm] _
_ but I ain't no [G] Jesus, _ _ _
[C] I'll [Bb] walk on [Am] water, _
_ [Dm] _ _ but only when [G] it freezes, cause I'm only [F] human, _ [G] just [Am] like you,
I've been [C] making my [F] mistakes, so if [G] you only [Am] knew, I don't [C] think you should [F] believe in me,
[G] the way that [Am] you do, cause [C] I'm [F] terrified to let you [G] _ down, oh, [C] if I [Bb] walk on [F] water, _ [C] I'll drown,
_ cause I'm just a man, but as long as I got [B] a mic, I'm godlike, so me and you are not alike, bitch, I wrote Stan.
