Mind Playing Tricks On Me Chords by Geto Boys

[Db] I sit [Ebm] alone in my four [Bbm] cornered room staring at [Ebm] candles
[Bbm] Oh that shit is on?
[Ebm] Let me [Bbm] drop some shit like this [Ebm] here Yes
[Bbm] At [Ab] night I can't [Ebm] sleep, I toss and turn
[Db] Candlesticks in the dark, visions of [Ebm] bodies being [Ab] burned
[Db] Four walls just staring at a [Eb] nigga
I'm [Bbm] paranoid sleeping with my [Ebm] finger on the [Ab] trigger
My mother's always stressing I ain't living right
But I ain't going [Ebm] out without [Bb] a fight
[Ab] See [Ebm] every time my eyes close
I start [Ab] sweating, and [Gb] blood starts coming out my [Ab] nose
It's [Ebm] somebody watching me act
But I don't know who it is, so I'm watching my back
I can see him when I'm deep in the covers
When I awake I don't see the [Ab] motherfucker
He owns a [Ebm] black hat like I own
[Bbm] A black suit and a [Ebm] cane like my own
Some might say take a chill B
But fuck [F] that shit, there's a [Ebm] nigga trying to [Ab] kill me
I'm popping in the clip when the wind blows
Every twenty seconds got me peeping out my window
[Ebm] Investigating a joint for traps
[Bbm] Checking my [Ebm] telephone for [Ab] taps
I'm [Ebm] staring at the woman on the corner
[F] It's fucked [Ebm] up when your mind is playing [Db] tricks on you
I _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
make big money, I drive big cars
Everybody know me
It's like I'm a movie star, but [Bb] late at night
[Ebm] Something ain't right
I feel I'm being [Bb] tailed by the [Ebm] same sucker's headlights
[Ab] Is it that move that I [Ebm] ran off the block?
Or is it that nigga last week that I shot?
Or is it the one I beat for five thousand dollars?
Thought he had [Db] cane, but it was gold, not a [Ebm] flower
He's [Bb] standing in my seat, grab my [Ebm] popper for the suckers
Ain't no use in me [Db] lying, I'm a scattered little [Ebm] motherfucker
Put the left in the Popeyes and burn down [Db] quick
If it's [Ebm] foreign dollars, get this shit [Fm] over with
It ain't [Ebm] punk, just like I figured
[Db] I got my head on the [Ebm] motherfucking [Bb] trigger
When I [Ebm] slow, make your ass start giggling
[Bbm] Three black crippling [Ebm] crazy senior [Bb] citizens
I [Ebm] live by the swamp
I take my boys everywhere I go
Because I'm paranoid
I keep looking over my shoulder and peeping around corners
My mind is playing [Bbm] tricks on me
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Ebm] _
[Ab] Day by day, it's more [Ebm] impossible to cope
[Bbm] I feel like I'm the one that's doing dope
[Ab] Can't [Ebm] keep a steady hand because I'm nervous
[Ab] Every Sunday morning I'm in service
[Ebm] Praying for forgiveness
[Db] And trying to find an [Ebm] exit out the business
I [Db] know the Lord is looking at me
[Eb] [Db] But yet it's still as hard for [Ebm] me to feel [Bb] happy
[Ab] [Ebm] I often drift when I drive
[Bbm] Having fatal [Ebm] thoughts of [Ab] suicide
[Ebm] Fag and get it over with
[Db] And then I'm worry free
[Ebm] But that's bullshit
I got a little boy to look after
[Bbm] And if I die, then my [Ebm] child will be a [Bb] bastard
[Ab] I [Ebm] had a woman down with me
[Bbm] But to me, it seemed like she was down to get me
[Abm] [Ebm] She helped me out in this shit
But to me, she was just another [Ab] bitch
[Ebm] Now she's back with her mother
_ Now I'm realizing that I [Ab] love her
[Ebm] Now I'm feeling lonely
_ My mind is playing [Bbm] tricks on me
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _

This year Halloween fell on a weekend
[Bbm] Me and ghetto [Ebm] brother trick or [Bb] treating
[Fm] [Eb] Robbing little kids for bags
[Bbm] Till an [Ebm] old man got behind our [Bbm] ass
[Ab] [Ebm] So we speeded up the pace
Took a look back
And he was right before our [Bb] face
[Ab] He'd be [Ebm] in for a squad with no doubt
[Bbm] So I swung and hit the [Ebm] nigga in his [Ab] mouth
[Ebm] He was going down, we figured
But this wasn't no ordinary [Ab] nigga
He [Ebm] stood about six or seven feet
Now that's the nigga I be seeing in my [Bb] sleep
[Ab] [Ebm] So we triple teamed on him
[Bbm] Dropping them [Ebm] motherfucking bees on him
The more I swung, the more blood flew
[Bbm] Then he [Ebm] disappeared, and my boys [Bb] disappeared too
[Ebm] Then I felt just like a fiend
It wasn't even close to [Ebm] Halloween
It was dark as fuck on the streets
My [Bbm] hands were all bloody from punching on the concrete [Ab] _ [Ebm] Goddamn, homie
[Bbm] [Ebm] My mind is playing [Bbm] tricks on me
