King To Me

C A Dm Ddim G

 C
Yeah, okay, the man who showed me how to fight
 A                         Am
The same one who took the training wheels off of my bike
  Dm
Then when I swerved and almost crashed into the neighbor's car
                                   C
You screamed so loud at me that I fell over the handle bars
And I was scared to make you mad
                     Am
You were scared that God was 'bout to take away, like, everything you had
         Dm
What's weird, that certain memories you never forget
           G
I mean, especially the ones that made you upset
                                C
Course you know those times we both would regret
                                               Am
When you and mom were fighting, I would go and bury my head
                                       Dm
And with a pillow case on it, I could maybe pretend
I'd make it all go away
                G
But after, the only thing that's broken was plates
                     C
I know I made my mistakes, I didn't always behave
                     Am
Slipping out of the house and lying straight to your face
                       Dm
That shit was never okay
The least I'll do is show you respect
     G
But I can never pay back the debt

              C                                 Am
When you get down, someone's gonna steal your crown
                        Dm                G
But you'll always be a king to me, and a family
                     C                         A
Cause you showed me how, showed me how to be a man
                  Dm             G
And always had a plan for me, a family

             C
And when my little brother came, he told me you always keep him safe
       A
Cause ain't no one closer in the world that you could replace
         Dm
So that there will be a day when it's just you and him alone
             G#m                       F
You need to know that I can treat him okay
                         C
Don't wanna think about things in that way
But just know that I understand it
      A
It's me and him against the fucking planet
              Dm
Playing Madden, I let him be his own man
                     G
Up in college, even when my music shit start expanding
                            C
I know you're proud to be a parent
Yeah, we talk a lot, that shit apparent
    Am
Sometimes it's all good, sometimes it's about Taryn
        Dm
Either way, you listen to my shit
Always lend a ear for me
 G
Said you work two jobs, 365 a year for me
C
Now I'm growing up and that shit became so clear to me
A                                                       Dm
Told me that the only thing in life I need to fear is me
Well, the least I'll do is show you respect
    G
But I can never pay back the debt

              C                                 Am
When you get down, someone's gonna steal your crown
                        Dm                 G
But you'll always be a king to me, and a family
                    C                           A
Cause you showed me how, showed me how to be a man
                  Dm             G
And always had a plan for me, a family

              C                      A
When you get down, I'm gon' lift you up right now
              Dm                    G#dim     F
When you get down, I'm gon' lift you up right now
              C                      A
When you get down, I'm gon' lift you up right now
          Dm                              G
When you get down, it's still gon' be the same

              C                                 Am
When you get down, someone's gonna steal your crown
                        Dm                 G
But you'll always be a king to me, and a family
                    C                           A

                  Dm              G
And always had a plan for me, a family

              C                                 Am
When you get down, someone's gonna steal your crown
                        Dm                G
But you'll always be a king to me, and a family
                     C                          A
Cause you showed me how, showed me how to be a man
                  Dm              G
And always had a plan for me, a family
