Version 1[Intro] N.C. Welcome friends! Hello foes! N.C. Thought my story was over, book closed? N.C. Think again, we’re nowhere close N.C. My eyes are open, cheers, we toast! N.C. I am a mother fucking GHOST! (He’s a ghost!) [Verse 1] Dm Dm My heart beat blanked, through the ground I sank Dm Gm I met a driver, his name was Hank Dm Dm Told me we were on the way, when I asked to where Dm Gm He said, “Can’t say!" Dm "He Himself decides your fate," Dm Gm "I’ll drop you off right in front of the gates!” Dm Dm A roller coaster kind of night Dm Gm My whole life right in plain sight Dm Dm Saw my mom, held her hand Dm Gm Couldn't wait to hug her in the promised land Dm Dm A rush of love, flight of doves Dm A I must be trippin', what a drug [Chorus] F E Dm Am I going to heaven or hell? Bb A Dm A question I have always asked myself F C Dm A Brittle Bones Nicky, you were crafty and tricky F C Dm It’s said that you were gold F C A It’s said that you were gold! [Verse 2] N.C. Welcome, welcome Nicky! N.C. Welcome to heaven! Dm Dm Door's open up, I was ushered in Dm Gm Hank said "Good luck to ya, kid!" Dm Dm A sign on the door, it read "fate" Dm Gm Two arrows pointing to two gates Dm Dm I'm a shoe-in, I don't hate Dm Gm Got laughed right in my fucking face Dm Dm "NO KID, YOU MADE MANY MISTAKES N.C. STARTED WITH THE PIE TO SHIFTY'S FACE Dm GO BE WITH YOUR MATES, SCOUNDRELS, FAKES C#m YOU PAY FOR SINS IN MY PLACE" C Mom looked on, without a trace Bb A I was cast away, thrown, hell’s gate Gm “This ain’t fair, you dealt those cards! G# "I made the most of a terrible start!” A A No voice came back, laughs from the pack N.C. Spit on my shoes, and clawed at my back [Chorus] F E Dm I guess I belong in hell Bb A Dm Is God the Devil Himself? F C Dm A Brittle Bones Nicky, you're not crafty or tricky F C Dm You're a son of a bitch, you're alone F C A Welcome to your new home! [Verse 3] Dm Dm It was a fucking zoo, rotting in spew Dm Gm Caged, a bird, bruised black and blue Dm Dm I cried “I gotta get out of this place!” Dm Gm I heard a voice “Only one way!” Dm Dm It was Ben, it’d been years Dm Gm Saved him from the three musketeers Dm Dm Man, I was happy to see his face N.C. He said "I owe you one, I'll help you out of this maze!" Dm Dm “Approach the devil, with venomous grace Dm Gm tell him you’ll fuck with the human race! Dm Dm He may let you out, as a Ghost, a pawn Dm Gm to scare the shit out of who you want! Dm Dm If you serve time, do despicable crimes Dm Gm the devil might let you into heaven in time! Dm Dm Lines right there for you to plead, say a prayer A get on your knees!” [Chorus] F E Dm I gotta get outta this hell Bb A Dm Would you sell your soul to save yourself? F C I’m not gonna get pushed around F C I’m not going down, down, down! (Down!) F A Dm I’m not going down! [Verse 4] Dm “COME ON IN, TAKE A SEAT” C#m He was turned around, only saw his feet C The voice I knew, I’d just heard Bb A He turned around, it was God, he slurred Dm “SURPRISED? MOST OF EM' ARE C#m I’M MUFASA, AND I’M SCAR C LILY WHITE SHIT GETS OLD AND TRITE Bb A NOW TELL ME WHY YOU'RE IN MY SIGHT” Dm “I’ll make you a deal, if I can’t close C#m Banish me to the down below C I’m crafty, I'm tricky Bb A Millions of people dig me Dm Let me go back, make people crack C#m If I do you right, grant me a pass C Bb A To see my mom, and watch her back” [Chorus] F C Brittle Bones Nicky Dm A He was crafty and tricky F C Dm A That son of a bitch was gold! F C Dm Yeah that son of a bitch was gold! [Outro] Dm Dm So here I am, not quite a man Dm Gm But I always got a game plan Dm Dm I’ll ruffle feathers, fuck with folks N.C. But you know me, I’m a good bloke
