Verse
E F#
Have you ever loved someone so much, you'd give an arm for?
G#m
Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
E F#
When they know they're your heart And you know you were their armour
G#m
And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm 'her
E F#
But what happens when karma, turns right around and bites you
G#m
And everything you stand for, turns on you, to spite you?
E
What happens when you become the main source of a pain?
G#m F#
"Daddy look what I made," dad's gotta go catch a plane
E F#
"Daddy where's mommy? I can't find mommy, where is she?"
G#m
I don't know, go play Hailie, baby, your daddy's busy
E F#
Daddy's writing this song, this song ain't gon' write itself
G#m
I'll give you one underdog, and you gotta swing by yourself
E F#
Then turn right around in that song and tell her you love her
G#m
And put hands on her mother, who's a spitting image of her
E
That's Slim Shady, yeah baby, Slim Shady's crazy
G#m F#
Shady made me, but tonight Shady's rocka-by-baby
[Refrain]

E F#
I keep having this dream, I'm pushin' Hailie on a swing

Baby, daddy ain't leaving no more, "Daddy you're lying
E F#
"You always say that, you always say this is the last time
G#m
But you ain't leaving no more, daddy, you're mine"
E F#
She's piling boxes in front of the door, trying to block it
G#m
"Daddy please, daddy don't leave, daddy, no stop it!"
E F#
Goes in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket
G#m
It's got a picture, "This'll keep you safe daddy, take it witcha'"
E

And I'm singing

E F#
Sixty thousand people, all jumping out their seat
G#m
The curtain closes, they're throwing roses at my feet
E
I take a bow and thank you all for coming out
G#m F#
They're screaming so loud, I take one last look at the crowd
E F#
I glance down, I don't believe what I'm seeing
G#m
"Daddy it's me, help mommy, her wrists are bleeding"
E
But baby we're in Sweden, how did you get to Sweden? "I followed you daddy, you
told me that you weren't leavin'
G#m F#
You lied to me dad, and now you made mommy sad And I bought you this coin, it says 'Number One Dad'
E F#
"That's all I wanted, I just want to give you this coin
G#m
I get the point, fine, me and mommy are goin'"
E
But baby wait, "It's too late dad, you made your choice

It's no wonder you can't go to sleep, just take another pill

E F#
I hear applause, all this time I couldn't see
G#m
How could it be, that the curtain is closing on me?
E
I turn around, find a gun on the ground and cock it
G#m F#
Put it to my brain, scream, "Die Shady" and pop it
E F#
The sky darkens, my life flashes
G#m
The plane that I was supposed to be on crashes and burns to ashes
E
That's when I wake up, alarm clock's ringin', there's birds singin'
G#m F#
It's spring and Hailei's outside swinging
E F#
I walk right up to Kim and kiss her

Tell her I miss her, Hailie just smiles

And winks at her little sister

Almost as if to say
[Refrain]
