Gangsta's Paradise

[Intro] A  F#m  G#  C#m

     A                             
As I walk through the valley of the
 F#m
 shadow of death
         G#                     
I take a look at my life and realize
C#m
 there's not much left
   A                      F#m
Coz I've been blastin and laughin so
 long, that
G#                          C#m
Even my mama thinks that my mind is 
gone
             A                     
But I ain't never crossed a man 
   F#m
that didn't deserve it
      G#                      C#m
Me be treated like a punk you know 
that's unheard of
    A                              
You better watch how you're 
 F#m
talking, and where you're walking
   G#                           
Or you and your homies might be 
C#m
lined in chalk
  A                         F#m
I really hate to trip but I gotta, 
loc
     G#                       C#m
As they croak I see myself in the 
pistol smoke, fool
A                           F#m
I'm the kinda G the little homies 
wanna be like
      G#                        
On my knees in the night, saying 
  C#m
prayers in the streetlight

A             F#m            
Been spending most their lives, 
          G#               C#m
living in the gangsta's paradise
A             F#m            
Been spending most their lives, 
          G#               C#m
living in the gangsta's paradise

A             F#m            
Keep spending most their lives, 
          G#               C#m
living in the gangsta's paradise
A             F#m            
Keep spending most their lives, 
          G#               C#m
living in the gangsta's paradise

A                            F#m
Look at the situation, they got me 
facin'

        G#                        
I can't live a normal life, I was 
C#m
raised by the streets
     A                      F#m
So I gotta be down with the hood 
team
         G#                        
Too much television watching got me
 C#m
 chasing dreams
       A                    F#m
I'm an educated fool with money on 
my mind
       G#                   C#m
Got my ten in my hand and a gleam in
 my eye
      A                     F#m
I'm a loc'd out gangsta set trippin'
 banger
       G#                     
And my homies is down so don't 
  C#m
arouse my anger, fool
A                         F#m
Death ain't nothing but a heartbeat 
away
    G#                      C#m
I'm living life, do or die, what can
 I say
    A                           
I'm twenty-three now, but will I 
  F#m
live to see twenty-four
        G#                       C#m
The way things is going I don't know

        A       F#m    G#       C#m
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
         A        F#m       G#   
That the one's we hurt, are you 
   C#m
and me

A             F#m            
Been spending most their lives, 
          G#               C#m

living in the gangsta's paradise

A                   F#m
Power and the money, money and the 
power
G#                   C#m
Minute after minute, hour after hour
A                        F#m
Everybody's running, but half of 
them ain't looking
             G#                    
It's going on in the kitchen, but I
 C#m
 don't know what's cookin'
      A                        F#m
They say I gotta learn, but nobody's
 here to teach me
   G#                        C#m
If they can't understand it, how can
 they reach me
A                     F#m
I guess they can't, I guess they 
won't
             G#                  
I guess they front, that's why I 
C#m
know my life is out of luck, fool

A             F#m            
Been spending most their lives,
