Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)
AbAb 
E minorEm
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
GbGb 
C minorCm
I take a look at my life and realize there's nothing left
AbAb E minorEm
'Coz I've been laughin and blastin' so long, that
GbGb C minorCm
Even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
AbAb E minorEm
But I ain't never crossed a man that didn't deserve it
GbGb C minorCm
Me be treated like a punk you know that's unheard of
AbAb E minorEm
You better watch how you're talkin', and where you're walkin'
GbGb C minorCm
Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk
AbAb E minorEm
I really hate to trip but I gotta, go
GbGb C minorCm
As I grow I see myself in the pistol smoke, fool
AbAb E minorEm
I'm the kinda 
G+G the little homies wanna be like
GbGb C minorCm
On my knees in the night, sayin' prayers in the streetlight
AbAb E minorEm
Been spendin' most our lives
GbGb C minorCm
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
AbAb E minorEm
Been spendin' most our lives
GbGb C minorCm
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
AbAb E minorEm
keep spendin' most our lives
GbGb C minorCm
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
AbAb E minorEm
keep spendin' most our lives
GbGb C minorCm
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
AbAb E minorEm
They got the situation, they got me facin'
GbGb C minorCm
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the stripes
AbAb E minorEm
So I gotta be down with the hood team
GbGb C minorCm
Too much television watchin' got me chasin' dreams
AbAb E minorEm
I'm an educated fool with money on my mind
GbGb C minorCm
Got my 10 in my hand and a gleam in my eye
AbAb E minorEm
I'm a loc'd out gangsta set trippin' banger
GbGb C minorCm
And my homies is down so don't arouse my anger, fool
AbAb E minorEm
Death ain't nothin' but a heartbeat away
GbGb C minorCm
I'm livin' life, do or die, what can I say
AbAb E minorEm
I'm twenty-three now, but will I live to see twenty-four
GbGb C minorCm
The way things are going I don't know
"Do just a strum on the chords"
AbAb E minorEm
Tell me why are we
GbGb C minorCm
so blind to see
AbAb E minorEm
That the one's we hurt
GbGb C minorCm
are you and me
AbAb E minorEm
Been spendin' most our lives

Livin' in the gangsta's paradise

Power and the money
E minorEm
money and the power
GbGb
Minute after minute
C minorCm
hour after hour
AbAb
Everybody's runnin'
E minorEm
but half of them ain't lookin'
GbGb
What's going on in the kitchen
C minorCm
but I don't know what's cookin'
AbAb
They say I gotta learn
E minorEm
but nobody's here to teach me
GbGb
If they can't understand it
C minorCm
how can they reach me
AbAb
I guess they can't
E minorEm
I guess they won't
GbGb
I guess they front
C minorCm
that's why I know my life is out of luck, fool
AbAb E minorEm
Been spendin' most our lives
GbGb C minorCm
Livin' in the gangsta's paradise
