God Has Smiled On Me Chords by Afroman

Yeah, I'd be acting crazy rapping nasty, but don't get me wrong.
I got sense.
I'm a thank God on this song man
[G] _ This song is [A] dedicated to all [D] the homeboys that almost died
But for some strange coincidental ironic reason you live through it homeboy, but [B] I'm here to tell you man
It's not a coincidence and it's not ironic [G] God got a plan in purpose for your life, [A] man
The quarter-piece [D] quartet gonna help me sing it right about [N] now
_ _ [D] _ [G] God has [D] smiled on me, _ he has set me free _ _
_ [B] _ _ [Bm] _ God has smiled [G] on me, and he's [A] been _ [D] good to me
Yeah, uh, before I was a [G] wild juvenile, [A] I used to [D] be a mild Christian young child
I used to seek [G] and seek, search and search, [E] analyze everybody [D] in my church
I went to, [B] seen a lot of hypocrites, religious fakers, digging [G] whoremongers, and offering takers
[B] When I turned [A] 13, I thought church was fake, [D] I took all I could take, so I took a little [D] break
I went [G] through the world, bought a Jerry Curl, [A] and some practice [D] lines so I could do my own thing
The street life, [G] I didn't understand good, so I started gang-danging to prove my manhood
[B] Yeah, I had fun, packing [F#] the gun, the baddest kid on [Gm] the block was a Christian son
Went to the [A] county jail not once but twice, [D] gambling with my life like a dead man
God _ [G] _
has _ [A] smiled on me, [D] he [G] has set me free _ _
_ [B] God _ _ _ has smiled [F#] on me, and he's [Am] been good [D] to me
I got [G] released in 94, [A] told my mama I [D] don't want to get in trouble no more, I want to find a job
Obtain some wealth, be independent like you, and take care of [B] myself
I stopped banging, I really quit, but not the [G] people that I got into it with
Back in the [Am] day, from Palmdale to LA, they got beef with me, hold me up until this day
To make a long [G] story short, I stepped out the tub, [A]
walked around the [D] corner to the local nightclub
Sitting at [G] a table just [D] doing my thing, that's when I got approached by this rival gang
[B] His gang and my gang just got into it, I tried [G] to explain, I didn't do it
I told [A] you bro, since 94, I been straight man, I don't mess around no more
God [G] _
has [F#] _ [D] smiled on me, _ he has set me free _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ God has _ [D]
smiled on me, [G] and he's [E] been good [D] to me
He _ _ _ said call the [G] mortuary, order some [A] flowers, you quit your [D] gang but we never quit ours
It got exciting, we started fist fighting, like Mike Tyson I was stretching and biting
[B] A bunch of them started mobbing me, threw me [F#] on the floor, started robbing me
The things that they [Am] took from me wasn't nothing [D] major, wallet, Walkman, cheap little pager
They took [G] my food stamps, took my night, [A] took me and tried to [D] take my life
I tried to fight back, but my efforts was useless, ain't no need to make enough excuses
I [Bm]
was on the ground, getting deep down, found [G] different people kicking me around
I thought [A] about all the bad things [D] I did when I ran from God, as a little bitty kid
No sign, [G] no reason, no clue, no warning, no bad, [D] nobody cared, 2 o'clock in the morning
Heavy [G] licks, they was laying on me, but at the same time my mama she was praying for [B] me
Lights from the helicopter filled the air, [A] and the police [G] cars came everywhere
I [A] told Jesus I don't [D] deserve you, but let me live [E] and I'll serve you
[D] God _ has _ smiled on me, _ he has set me [E] free
Can you sing it again?
[Bm] God _ _ _ has [D] smiled on me, [A] and he's been good to me
Yeah man, _
_ [D] sometimes [G] when I'm drinking man I think about my [A] close calls, you know what [D] I'm saying
At times I almost got shot, [G] at times I was [D] committing crimes, almost got caught by the police
Man I think about [B] car accidents that never happened
I think about homeboys I speak [G] to one day, next day they catch you 50, [A] 60 years
Maybe even rest in peace, you know what I'm saying
So check this out [D] man, [G] we still alive right?
God ain't cool [D] with us, so let's put it down man
Stop all this [G] madness, you know what I'm saying
[E] Go and take care of some situations we need to take [B] care of
Tell all the homeboys that robbed me, hey [A] man I'm still alive
[Em] If y'all be so kind, go down there and buy my tape [A] man
That'll make up for them food [D] stamps y'all took from me, right? _ _ _ _
[G] Amazing grace, [A] how sweet [Dm] the sound
That saved a wretch [G#] like me
I [Bm] _ once was lost, but now [G] I'm found
Was blind [A] but now I see _
I'm [D] telling you [G] God, _ he's the smile [A] on [D] your face
He's the smile on your face, he [G] set me [D] free
Can you see it in me girl? _
_ _ _ He's the smile [G] on me, he's the smile on me
And [A] he's been good to me
Can you see that?
That's [G] amazing
Amazing grace, [A] how [D] sweet the sound
_ That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm _ _ _ _
_ [G] found
Was blind [A] but [D] now I see _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
