Step Up chords by Linkin Park

Chords with lyrics

Intro:
N.C.
Yo...

Verse 1:
G# minorG#m
Watch as the room rocks, mentally moonwalk

Mixed Media slang banging in your boom box
E MajorE
Verbal violence, lyrical stylist

In a time when rock hip-hop rhymes are childish

G# minorG#m
You can't tempt me with rhymes that are empty

Rapping to a beat doesn't make you an MC
E MajorE
With your lack of skill and facility, you're killing me

And a DJ in the group just for credibility

G# minorG#m
I heard that some of you are getting help with your rhymes

You're not an MC if someone else writes your lines
E MajorE
Rapping over rock doesn't make you a pioneer

â??Cause rock and hip-hop have collaborated for years

G# minorG#m
But now they're getting randomly mixed and matched up

All after a fast buck, and all the tracks suck
E MajorE
So how does it stack up? None of it's real

You want to be an MC, you've got to study the skill

Chorus:
G# minorG#m         E5E5 D#5D#5
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
C# minorC#m         F# minorF#m
Bring it to you every time like this?
G# minorG#m         E5E5 D#5D#5
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
A5A5         BB
Step, step up! Step, step up!

Verse:
G# minorG#m
So, you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity

But mentally, you don't have the hip hop energy
E MajorE
With a tendency to make up stories (Bullshit)

Sounding like the only hip hop you've heard is top 40

G# minorG#m
And your record company is completely missing it

All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate
E MajorE
So in a battle, you can't hack it, react with whack shit

And get smacked with verbal back flips

G# minorG#m
Get your ass kicked by fabulous battle catalysts

It's taken decades for MC's to establish this
E MajorE
You're new to hip-hop, and welcome if your serious

But not on the mic, leave that to the experienced

G# minorG#m
Using the waves of sound
A5A5         BB A augmentedA       G# minorG#m
The true master paralyzes his opponents
 F# minorF#m  G# minorG#m       BB
Leaving him vulnerable to attack


Chorus:

G# minorG#m         E5E5 D#5D#5
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
C# minorC#m         F# minorF#m
Bring it to you every time like this?
G# minorG#m         E5E5 D#5D#5

A5A5         BB
Step, step up! Step, step up!


Bridge:
G# minorG#m                   A augmentedA
After years of pain-staking research by the world's leading sound scientists
G# minorG#m                   A augmentedA
We here at the sound institute have invented a reliable audio weapons system
G# minorG#m                   A augmentedA                G# minorG#m
Actual movement of musical sound in space used to carefully attack and
 A augmentedA
neutralize the cellular structure of the human body And the question must be askedâ?¦


Chorus:

G# minorG#m         E5E5 D#5D#5
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
C# minorC#m         F# minorF#m
Bring it to you every time like this?
G# minorG#m         E5E5 D#5D#5

A5A5         BB
Step, step up! Step, step up!
