Cleaning Out My Closet Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Wher[Dm]e's[Am]
my [F]snare?[E][Am]
I have no snare in [E]my headphones.
[Am]There you [Dm]go. Yeah[Am].[F][E][Am]
Have [E]you [Am]ever been hated
or discrimin[Dm]ated [Am]against?
I have, I've been protested
and demon[Dm]strated against
[Am]Picket [F]signs for my [Am]wicked rhymes,
[E]look at the times
Sick as [Am]the mind of the
motherfuckin' kid that's behind
[E]All this [Am]commotion,
emotions run deep as oceans
Exploding, tempers flaring from parents
Just blow em off and keep going,
not taking nothing [F]from no one
Give them [E]hell long as I'm breathin'
Keep kickin' as[Am]s in the mornin'
And takin' names in the [E]evenin'
Leave em' [Am]with the taste
of sourest vinegar in they mouth
See they can trigger me
But they'll never figure me out
Look at me now
[F]I bet you're probably sic[E]k of me now
Ain't you, mama?
[Am]I'ma make you look so ridiculous now
[E]I'm sorry[Am], mama
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to [F]make you cry
But [E]tonight, I'm cleanin' out my [Am]closet
I said I'm sorry mama,
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to [F]make you cry
but [E]tonight I'm cleaning out my [Am]closet
I got some skeletons in my closet
and I don't know if no one knows it
So before they throw me inside my
coffin and close it I'ma expose [F]it
I'll take you back [E]to 73,
before I [Am]ever had a multi
-platinum selling CD
[E]I was a[Am] baby,
maybe I was just a couple of months
My faggot father
must've had his panties up in a bunch
As he split, [F]I wonder if he
even [E]kissed me goodbye
No I don't, [Am]second thought
I just fuckin' wish he would die
[E]I look a[Am]t Haley,
and I couldn't picture leaving her side
Even if I hated Kim,
I'd grit my teeth
and I'd try to make it work with [F]her
At least for [Am]Haley's [E]sake,
I maybe made some mistakes
But I'm [Am]only human,
but I'm man enough to [E]face him today
[Am]What I did was stupid,
no doubt [Dm]it was du[Am]mb
But the smartest shit I did
was take the bullets out of that gun
Cause I'd have killed [F]him,
shit I would have [E]shot Kim and them both
It's my life, [Am]I'd like to welcome
y 'all to the Eminem show
[E]I'm sorry [Am]mama,
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to [F]make you cry
But [E]tonight, I'm cleaning out my [Am]closet
One more time I said I'm sorry mama,
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to [F]make you cry,
[Am]but toni[E]ght I'm cleaning out my clos[Am]et
Now I would never diss my own mama
just to get [Dm]recognition
[Am]Take a second to listen,
fool you think [E]this re[Am]cord is [E]dissin'
[Am]But put yourself i[F]n my position,
[E]just try to envision
Witnessin' your [Am]mama poppin'
prescription pills in your [E]kitchen
Bitchin' [Am]that someone's always
goin' through a person
[Dm]Some shit's [Am]missing,
going through public housing systems
Victim of Munchausen Syndrome
My whole life I [F]was made to
be[Am]lieve I [E]was sick
When I wasn't, till I grew up
[Am]Now I blew up,
it makes you sick to your stomach,
[E]doesn't it?
[Am]Wasn't it the reason you
made that CD for me, Ma?
So you could try to justify
the way you treated me, Ma?
But guess what, you're [F]getting older now
[Am]And it's[E] cold when you're lonely
And Nathan's grow[Am]ing up so quick
He's gonna know that you're phony
An[E]d Hayl[Am]ey's getting so big now
You [Dm]should see her, she's [Am]beautiful
But you'll never see her
She won't even be at your funeral
See what hurts [F]me the most is you
won't [E]admit you was wrong
Bitch, do your song,
[Am]keep telling yourself
that you was a mom
[E]But how [Am]dare you try to take
what you didn't help me to get
You selfish bitch,
I hope you fuckin' burn in
hell for this shit
Remember when [F]Ronnie died
an[Am]d you said [E]you wished it was me?
Well guess what, [Am]I am dead,
dead to you as can [E]be
I'm sorry [Am]mama
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to [F]make you cry
But [E]tonight, I'm cleanin' out my [Am]closet
One more time I said [E]I'm [Am]sorry mama
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to [F]make you cry
But [E]tonight, I'm cleanin' out my [Am]closet
[Dm][Am]
[F][E]
[Am]
[F][E]
[Am][Am]
[Am]Thanks for watching!
