[Ab] Mm.
Hey, yo, nephew, check this out.
Now, I know you got that bad chick right there,
and you ain't [Cm] even checking off her,
but she doing all of that [D] for you.
She got [G] this, she got that.
I mean, she's off [Gm] the hissing.
I mean, when you [Cm] find one like that,
you've got to make that change, man.
Because they don't come too [Fm] often.
And when they do come, you've got to be [Cm] smart enough
to know when to change.
Like Sam Cooke say, [Gm] change going to come, nephew,
and you better believe that.
[Cm] I look back on all that [Fm] I've done to you.
[Cm] My biggest regret, the things that I [Gm] never could do.
[Eb] See the light now baby, it's [Fm] shining through.
[Cm] Gotta give up the game, yeah I got some [Gm] changing to do.
I [Cm] won't get high if you want it, get that [Fm] straight.
Nine to five if you want it, keep my [Cm] ass home at night if you want it.
[Eb] Whatever you [Gm] need me to do.
[Cm] When you talk I'mma listen, give you all that [Fm] attention you're missing.
Girl I swear [Cm] I'm more hand to my business, just like a [Gm] real man should do.
[Cm] I can change, [Fm]
I can change.
You know I can [Cm] change baby.
[Gm]
You know I can stop [Cm] baby.
You know I can [Fm] change baby.
[Cm] [Eb] [Gm]
You know I can [Cm] stop baby.
[Fm] [Cm] [G]
[Gm] [Ab] I give up all the places I [Fm] used to go.
[Cm] Stay out the club, stay home because [Gm] I'm with you.
[Cm] I give up all those [Fm] girls that I used to know.
[Cm] They don't compare.
Baby, I swear [Gm] it's the truth.
[Cm] I'm through with you women.
Yeah, that's right.
I give [Fm] up on the feeling.
Girl, I'm going [Cm] to repent from the [Eb] sinning.
That's what you want [Gm] me to do.
[Cm] I'll get by if you want it.
Go to church, [Fm] you're baptized if you want it.
Girl, [Bb] you open [Cm] my eyes and I'm going to be much better [Gm] for you.
I can change for you.
[Cm] I can change.
No, I can change, [Fm] baby.
I can change.
No, I can change, [Cm] baby.
I can change [Gm] for you.
[Cm] I can change.
For [Fm] who?
I can change.
I can change, [Cm] baby.
I can change [Gm] for you.
[Cm] Take me to the river and baptize my [Fm] soul.
I'm so out of control, [D] needin' someone to hold
[Cm] Man, it's cold, I ain't [Eb] been clubbin', drinkin' or [Gm] smokin'
I'm focused, bowin' down every night, prayin' and hopin'
[Cm] I'm tryin' to figure out a way, I just don't know how to say
[Fm] But I'm rearrangin', hopefully I'm changin'
And you can [Cm] see that, baby, cause it's hard for me
Kinda, sorta, [Gm] odd for me
But ain't nothin' for it, if you need me to do it, [Cm] I guess
I could stay
Yeah, I'm willin' to make that [Fm] change, baby
I could stay
I'm willin' to make that [Cm] change
I could stay
I [Eb] mean, out fo all the people [Gm] in the world
Who would have thought the big boss dog [Cm] would be willing to make [Eb] that change?
Yeah, you special, baby
[Fm]
You real special
You gettin' the pimp [Cm] to leave all this minks and this cat lights behind
[Gm] All for you
Nobody but you
I'm so serious [Cm] about this
I could change
[Ab] But only [Fm] for you
Cause you the type of female that, [Cm] you know what I'm saying, you bring that out of a player
Make me wanna [Eb] lay down the pimpin'
And step my love game up
Can you [Cm] dig that?
Yeah, also Romeo and Juliet.
[Fm] Ha ha, I can change baby.
Give me the [Cm] room.
I can make it zoom zoom, go boom boom.
[G]
This is legendary shit right here [Gm] baby.
I know I'm the star [Cm] baby.
[Fm]
You gotta believe me baby.
[Cm] You gotta believe me.
Yeah.
[Gm]
I know I'm the star [Cm] baby.
I know I'm the star baby.
You gotta [Fm] believe me baby.
You gotta believe me.
You gotta [Cm] believe me.
Oh yeah.
[Gm]
That's how they do it.
[Cm] This time I'm.
[Fm]
This time I'm.
