Never by The Roots



                                 Never 






This song is on piano but it still sounds good on guitar. I struggled a bit between E minor and C,
neither sounded correct but they were close. Although the 3rd chord in the progression sounds minor if you
play C/E it sounds perfect.

NO CAPO
Standard Tuning: EADGBe

Voices: (Dm) (F) (C/E) (G)

Intro
Dm F C/E G

[Hook]
Dm                 F           C/E
     Street dreams, close your eyes
            G
     Take a bite to the memory
Dm                F             C/E
     Street dreams, this is the moment
         G                       Dm
     The moment that feels like forever
F                C/E              G
     This is the end to where I began
                         Dm
     And it feels like forever
F                  C/E
     They say time flies
              G   [cut off G](Dm)
     Down from sky and says never
(F)         (C/E)     (G lighty) begin to fade out (Dm even lighter) fade out
     I look down...      all I see is never

     And all I know is all I know...

--Bass Line then Percussion dominates the rap and there is more voices. The piano doesn't play but the 
progression works (Dm F C/E G) if you choose to play it with the rap--

[Verse 1 - Black Thought:]

I was born faceless in an oasis
Folks disappear here and leave no traces
No family ties nigga no laces
Less than a full deck nigga no aces
Waitin' on Superman losing all patience
Gettin' wasted on an everyday basis
I'm stuck here can't take a vacation
So fuck it, this shit is damnation
This is reality mane
Ain't no surprise I've been bangin' without any mane
What is this gotta be brave
When into the night I'm going to go quietly mane
Life is a bitch and then you live
Until one day by death you're found
I tried to keep both of my feet on the ground
But I know my head is surrounded by clouds
Spirallin' down, destined to drown
Forever is just a collection of nows
Off on my own, nowhere is my home
Approaching infinities fork in the road
When I was young something I often was told
It's not a bargain if it costs you your soul
Costs you your pride, caution aside
I'm gone with the wind and I'm long for the ride
Wish I could rest and open my eyes
But time ain't finna fly down from the sky
A place where the lonely love
Not another soul's there, only us

[Bass Line]
    Street dreams, close your eyes

    Take a bite to the memory

    Street dreams, this is the moment
                                Dm [hard]
    The moment that feels like forever
F               C/E              G
    This is the end to where I began
                        Dm
    And it feels like forever
F                 C/E
    They say time flies
             G   [cut off G](Dm)
    Down from sky and says never
(F)        (C/E)     (G)             (Dm)
    I look down...      all I see is never
(F)           (C/E)         (G)
    And all I know is all I know...

                  Dm [hard]
    I woke with a tear drop
F         C/E            G
    All I know is what I know
                  Dm
    I woke with a tear drop
F         C/E            G
    All I know is what I know
               Dm [ring out]
    It's all I know

    All I know..

Dm       Dm      [ring out]
