[Intro 1]
[G][Am][C][G]
[C][G]

[Verse 1]
If we were [D]kids
I'd want to [Am]give you everything
[G]that you wou[D]ld wan[G]t
Those other [D]boys
They gave you [Am]toys,
but all they [G]wanna [D]do is
Keep [G]up
Keep up, keep up, keep [Bm]up
That's [G]all I want, keep [Am]up
Keep up with me, [D]keep up
Keep [G]up
Keep up, keep [Am]up, keep u[Bm]p
That's [G]all I want, keep [C]up
Keep up with me, [D]keep up

[Verse 2]
[D]
I guess I'm fucking now
I'm getting used [G]to it
It's cause I shine,
[D]an d I ain't gotta use a crucifix
Fuck the [G]fussing and fighting
and arguing to this and that
And [C]"Why you bein' mean to [D]me
Donald?" I never texted back
[G]I know it's comin' quick,
wishin' I could [D]fast [G]forward
Tell these nice girls they're the
reason that I'm an asshole
Omega [C]to alpha male,
because of that dollar bill
When I [G]worked the mail [D]room
I ain't have a shot in hell
[G]I called her ass for two months
and heard shit from her
These girls [Bm]couldn't care [G]less
when the chips under
[Am]The chips are up and on my shoulder,
you heard me?
[G]I tak[C]e it out on gir[G]ls who
[D]don't even deserve it
[G]The girls I tried to hit last year,
I still [Bm]might
Karma's a bitch who doesn't [G]suck,
but I still like
[C]If we [F]were kids I'd hav[Am]e the black
K- swiss [C]and [G]reebok
If we were kids I wouldn't
[D]act like this but we [G]not

[Verse 3]
[G]If we [D]were kids
I'd [G]want to [Am]give you [G]everything
[D]that [G]you [D]would wan[G]t
Those other [D]boys[Bm][D]
They gave you toys,
[Am]but all they wanna d[D]o is[G][D]
Keep [G]up
[C]Keep up, keep up, keep up
That's all I want, keep up
Keep up with me, keep [D]up
[G]Keep up
Keep up, keep up, keep [Bm]up
That's all [G]I want, keep u[Am]p
Keep up with me, [C]keep [G]up
[D]

[Verse 4]
You made a mistake
[G]These dud[D]es man you
bathing [Am]in a[G]pes
Finding you is [C]like finding [D]Asians I hate
But [Am]they say I got a fetish,
nah I'm skipping all of it
Black [C]or white [D]girls come
with a set of politics
That's [G]all I was saying
[D]I'm a proud man[C]
They wan[Am]na holla when they see your
[D]name [C]on SoundScan
Her name Mer[F]cedes [C]but she
push a brown Focus
And she's doing [D]coke in front of me,
but act like I don't notice
"There any [G]breakage in that Trojan?"
She see what she wanna [Bm]see
So I make her take [D]plan B
in front [Am]of me
Women talk shit on men like all [D]day
But [Bm]it's Pete Wentz,
[D]goes both way[G]s
They too busy stabbing hoes like OJ
[Bm]They too busy trapping pros [C]like Kobe
The only [Am]thing I put before
[C]me is do [Am]re[G]
[D]If you had [Bm]told me the
[D]truth we'd be [Bm]OK
If [G]we were

[Verse 5]
kid[D]s
[Am]I'd want to give you e[G]very[C]thing
[G]that [D]you would [G]want
Those other [D]boys
They [G]gave you toys,
[Am]but all they w[D]anna do is
Keep [G]up
Keep up, keep up, keep [Bm]up
That's [D]all I want, keep [Am]up
Keep up with me, [D]keep up
Keep [G]up
Keep up, keep up, keep [Bm]up
That's [G]all I want, keep [Am]up
Keep up with [C]me, [G]keep [D]up
