This song is in standard tuning EADGBe, similar to other versions on here, however
I use no capo for this version, I think it sounds like a bit more bass for rapping the song.
The chords are very easy, and simple to play.
Em | Am | B7 | Em
They keep the same rhythm, just rinse and repeat, have fun!
I don't use the pinky finger on the b7, its more of a modified b7 chord. Simply
switching my two fingers from the Am to B7 transition, while keeping the pinky
anchored on the third string (G).
Y'a[Em]ll act like you never seen [Am]a white person before
Jaws a[B7]ll on the floor like Pam and[Em] Tommy just burst in the door
[Em]and started whoopin her ass[Am] worse than before
they were [B7]first divorced, throwin h[Em]er over furniture (Ahh!)
[Em]It's the return of the... "Ah, w[Am]ait, no way, you're kidding,
[B7]he didn't just say what I th[Em]ink he did, did he?"
[Em]And Dr. Dre said...[Am] nothing you idiots!
[B7]Dr. Dre's dead, he's [Em]locked in my basement! (Ha-ha!)
[Em]Feminist women love Em[Am]inem
chigga chigga ch[B7]igga
"Slim Shady, I'm si[Em]ck of him look at him,
[Em]Walkin' around grabbin[Am]' his you-know-what
Flippin the yo[B7]u-know-who," "Yeah, but he's [Em]so cute though!"
[Em]Yeah, I probably got a couple of scre[Am]ws up in my head loose
But n[B7]o worse, than what's goin o[Em]n in your parents' bedrooms
[Em]Sometimes, I wanna get o[Am]n TV and just let loose, but can't[B7]
but it's cool for Tom Green to [Em]hump a dead moose
[Em]"My bum is on your lips, my [Am]bum is on your lips"
And if [B7]I'm lucky, you might just gi[Em]ve it a little kiss
And t[Em]hat's the message that we deli[Am]ver to little kids
And e[B7]xpect them not to know what a wo[Em]man's clitoris is
Of co[Em]urse they gonna know what interco[Am]urse is
By the time they hit f[B7]ourth grade
They got the Dis[Em]covery Channel don't they?
[Em]"We ain't nothing but ma[Am]mmals.." Well, some of us cann[B7]ibals
who cut other p[Em]eople open like cantaloupes [SLURP]
[Em]But if we can hump de[Am]ad animals and antelopes
[B7]then there's no reason that a man and an[Em]other man can't elope
[EWWW!] B[Em]ut if you feel like I[Am] feel, I got the antidote
[B7]Women wave your pantyhose, s[Em]ing the chorus and it goes
[Chorus: Eminem (repeat 2X)]
'Cause I[Em]'m Slim Shady, yes I'[Am]m the real Shady
All you o[B7]ther Slim Shadys are[Em] just imitating
So w[Em]on't the real Slim Shady ple[Am]ase stand up,
[B7]please stand up, p[Em]lease stand up?
[Em]Will Smith don't gotta cuss in his ra[Am]ps to sell his records;
[B7]well I do, so fuck him and f[Em]uck you too!
You th[Em]ink I give a damn about a Gr[Am]ammy?
Half of you cr[B7]itics can't even stomach me, l[Em]et alone stand me
"But S[Em]lim, what if you win, woul[Am]dn't it be weird?"
[B7]Why? So you guys could just lie to [Em]get me here?
So you c[Em]an, sit me here ne[Am]xt to Britney Spears?
[B7]Shit, Christina Aguilera b[Em]etter switch me chairs
so I can[Em] sit next to Carson Da[Am]ly and Fred Durst
and he[B7]ar 'em argue over who she gave h[Em]ead to first
[Em]You little bitch, put me on b[Am]last on MTV
"Yeah, he's c[B7]ute, but I think he's married t[Em]o Kim, hee-hee!"
I should [Em]download her audio on M[Am]P3
and show the w[B7]hole world how you gave [Em]Eminem VD [AHHH!]
[Em]I'm sick of you little girl and bo[Am]y groups, all you do is an[B7]noy me
so I have been s[Em]ent here to destroy you [bzzzt]
[Em]And there's a million of us ju[Am]st like me
who c[B7]uss like me; who just don't gi[Em]ve a fuck like me
who d[Em]ress like me; walk, talk and a[Am]ct like me
and j[B7]ust might be the next best th[Em]ing but not quite me!
[Chorus]
I'm like a h[Em]ead trip to listen to, ca[Am]use I'm only givin you
[B7]things you joke about with your friend[Em]s inside your living room
The[Em] only difference is [Am]I got the balls to say it
in front of y[B7]'all and I don't gotta be fa[Em]lse or sugarcoated at all
[Em]I just get on the mic[Am] and spit it
and wheth[B7]er you like to admit it [ERR] [Em]I just shit it
better than n[Em]inety percent of you rap[Am]pers out can
Then you wonder [B7]how can kids eat up these al[Em]bums like valiums
It's f[Em]unny; cause at the rat[Am]e I'm goin when I'm thirty
[B7]I'll be the only person in the nu[Em]rsin home flirting
[Em]Pinchin nurses asses whe[Am]n I'm jackin off with Jergens
And I[B7]'m jerkin but this whole bag of Vi[Em]agra isn't working
And e[Em]very single person is a Sl[Am]im Shady lurkin
He co[B7]uld be workin at Burger King, spi[Em]ttin on your onion rings
[HACH] [Em]Or in the parkin lot, ci[Am]rcling
Screaming "I don[B7]'t give a fuck!"
with his windows do[Em]wn and his system up
[Em]So, will the real Shady ple[Am]ase stand up?
And [B7]put one of those fingers on e[Em]ach hand up?
And be pr[Em]oud to be outta your mi[Am]nd and outta control
and [B7]one more time, loud as you [Em]can, how does it go?
[Chorus 4X]
Ha ha
Guess there's a Slim Shady in all of us
Fuck it, let's all stand up
