[E] [F] [F#] [G] [Dm] [G]
All right, people, step on up.
[F] [G] Don't be afraid to do that [F] change.
[G] People, I ain't gonna play you too.
You look something like this.
I got a man that lives in the city.
He came to New York City from South Africa with his arm
forced down the street so he could smoke,
get punch-barred, ride around, read,
get a 5-point box, and I said,
man, this fuck city is [N] fucked.
[G] He owned this house, [F] he had a [F#] fine [G] ass nigga here,
[Fm] but he ran [G] from here, found a gang of great [F]-n-shakes,
[F#] and said, [G] you know, life's not [F] pretty [F#] [G] in the city.
[F] He knew [F#] yesterday.
[N] [Am] [E] Life's not always so hard in life,
[C] so won't [A#] you [G] spare a moment of your time?
[C] I'll give [E] you a dance, sing you a rhyme,
and [A#] say, life is [C] tough, yeah, just spare a [G] [F] dime.
[G] [F] [Gm]
[F] [F#] [G] He got a little [F] kid, a savage kid,
[G] looking over the other [F] side,
[F#] a little [G] greener on the other [F]
[F#] side.
[G] [F] [G] Shiver down, [F] never worry about [G] fangs,
wonder [F] why, till the [F#] little [G] elf break [Fm] down and [E] cry.
[F] [G] And his major [F] star breaks down,
[G] and set the world on [Fm] the balls,
[G] [C] ready for the throne, slamming it up against the walls.
[A#] Life's [G] not always so hard in life,
[C] so [A#] won't you spare [G] a moment of your [C] time?
I'll [E] give you a [G] dance, sing you a rhyme,
and [A#] say, life is [C] tough, [E] yeah, just [Gm] spare a dime.
[C] [G] [Fm] [G]
You know, I've been talking, [F] boy, I'm just, yeah,

don't [F] like [F#] what you [Gm] see.
[F]
[G] I'm [F] [G] [F] a [C#] time or [G] two, and I'm [F] back full of [G] you.
[F]
[G] [F] [G] And so what [F] if I reach down [G] and slap the world [F] on the [F#] balls?
[G] Grab me by the [N] throat and slam me up against the walls.
[C] Life's [G] not always so hard in life,
[C] so [E] won't you spare a moment of your time?
[C] I'll [A#] give you a [G] dance, sing you a rhyme,
and [A#] say, life is [C] tough, life is tough.
