Tuning: E A D G B E
*NOTE* This song is strong on the bass.
This is a very simple song for the rythm
guitar; Many fills for the bass and lead guitar.
Only because of the barr chords did I mark this as
Intermediate skill of playing.
[Intro]
G# D# D
[Verse-Pos]
DNow let's get right on down to the skit
DA baby is brought into a world of pits
DAnd if it could've talked that soon
DIn the delivery room
DIt would've asked the nurse for a hit
DThe reason for this?
DThe mother is a jerk
DExcuse me, junkie
DWhich brought the work of the old
DInto a new light, what a way
DBut this what a way
DHas been a way of today
DAnyway push couldn't shove me
DTo understand a path to a basehead
DConsumer should erase it in the first wave
DBut second wave forms relievers
DAnd believers will walk to it
DThen even talk to it and say
(DYou got my body now you C#mwant my soul)
C#mNah, can't have none of that
C#mTell 'em what to say Mase
[Chorus]
(C#mSay no C#go, C#msay no C#go)
(C#mSay no C#go, C#msay no C#go)
(C#mSay no C#go, Say, say, say, say)
[Verse-Dove]
C#Nah, no my brother
C#No my sister
C#Try to get hip to this
C#Word, word to the mother
C#I'll tell the truth
C#So bear my witness
C#Fly like birds of a feather
C#Drugs are like pleather
C#You don't wanna wear it
C#No need to ask that question
C#Just don't mention
C#You know what the answer is
[Verse-Pos]
CNow I never fancied Nancy
CBut the statement she made
CHeld a plate of weight
CI even stressed it to Wade
[Verse-Dove]
CDid he take any heed?
[Verse-Pos]
CNah, the boy was hooked
CYou coulda phrased the word "base"
CAnd the kid just shook
CIn his fashion class once an A now an F
CThe rock rules him now
CThe only designs left
CWere once clothes made for Osh-Kosh
CHas converted to nothing but stonewash
[Verse-Dove]
CNow hopping in a barrel is a barrel of fun
CBut don't hop in if you wanna be down, son
'CCause that could mean
CDown and out as an action
CWhat does that lead to?
CDum da dum dum
CPeople say what have I done for all my years
CMy tears show my hard earned work
CI heard shoving is worse than pushing
CBut I'd rather know a shover than a pusher
'CCause a pusher's a jerk
[Chorus]
(C#mSay no C#go, C#msay no C#go)
(C#mSay no C#go, Say, say, say, say)
(C#mSay no C#go, Say, say, say, say)
[Verse-Pos]
C#Believe it or not
C#The plots forms a fee
C#More than charity
C#But the course doesn't coincide
C#With the ride of insanity
C#Is it a chant that slants
C#The soul to fill for it?
C#I know it's the border
C#That flaunts the order
C#To kill for it
[Verse-Dove]
C#Standing, scheming on a young one
C#Taking his time
C#8 ball for a cool pool player
C#Racked it all
C#Tried to break, miscued
C#Got beat by the boy in blue
C#Next day you're out
C#By the spot once more
C#Looking hard for a crack in the hole
C#I ask what's the fix for the ill stuff
C#Word to the Dero
C#The answer shoulda been no
[Verse-Pos]
C#Run me a score from the funky four plus one more
(A#It's the joint!)
A#Rewind that back
A#This is the age for a new stage of fiend
A#Watch how the junkies scream
A#For their crack
"A#It's the crack"t should explain it from the start
A#Behind the ideals of cranking up the heart
A#Now the Base claims shot over every part
[Outro]
(C#mSay no C#go, C#mSay no C#go)

(C#msay no C#go)
(EDon't even think about it)
(C#mSay no C#go, C#mSay no C#go)
