Eminem - Desperation (feat. Jamie N Commons) 
The Marshall Mathers LP 2 (Deluxe), 2013 
#18 

verse 1 

D5 - F5 - D5  ----> just repeat this through the verses, listen to the beat 

Girl you give me writer's block, I'm at a loss for words 
My minds as lost as yours, I rack my brain 
But still no thoughts emerge, never seen no ass as large as yours 
How much that cost? That's what I call a Roethlisberger 
You drive me bonkers I’m about to get my swerve on for sure 
Thought I was pimping 'til I felt like Nas, the first 
Date cause I think I gave you power, when I gave you flowers 
And I bought us a box of chocolates, no lozenges, cough drops and syrups 
Probably should of never let me call that job of yours 
To talk to your boss and ask him if you can take off from work 
Should of been one of the first signs to cause to learn 
Man we jumped in too fast, cause since then I can't be apart from her 
Cause nobody's body's awesomer, I lust it and she loves me 
Cause I'm popular, but you know this ain't love 



Hook 
here, in the part when Eminem comes in, you can keep on playing hook chords, or go  
to verse chords (there are two guitars) 

                       D5 C5           G5    F5 
You know this ain't love,   you know this ain't love 
                       D5 C5               G5      (mute) 
You know this ain't love, you know this ain't love (What is it then?) 
                       D5 C5           G5    F5           -------------> here (that or D5, F5, D5) 
It's desperation (She's looking for Mr. Right, wants me to be that guy to her) 
                       D5 C5           G5    F5 
It's desperation (I can't even put up a fight, cause I give in at the sight of her) 
(And I here I go again)" 


verse 2 

D5 - F5 - D5 

Well, obviously, oblivious to me, I swore I was just invisible to you 
'til I went to the lengths I did to meet you 
Cause you played so hard to get with me from the beginning 
Now I'm in disbelief I, never knew that this could be such misery, ah 
Cause now you see nothing but me, and I don't see nothing but you 
And I'm about to flip cause we are super glued in 
We stuck to each other's hips and we can't 
Do anything individually, which is to cling on, scared to be alone 
Can't, specifically to describe it I just can't seem to give a reason 
This definitive, just need you, talking 'bout "I live and breathe you" 
And you pretend to be as mentally and physically 
Addicted to me as Wiz Khalifa is to reefer 
Don't wanna be without you, don't wanna be with you neither, bitch 
Put me in a situation in which it's both I wish to seek, cause this ain't love 

Hook 
                       D5 C5           G5    F5 
You know this ain't love,   you know this ain't love 
                       D5 C5               G5      (mute) 
You know this ain't love, you know this ain't love (What is it then?) 
                       D5 C5           G5    F5  
It's desperation (She's looking for Mr. Right, wants me to be that guy to her) 
                       D5 C5           G5    F5 
It's desperation (I can't even put up a fight, cause I give in at the sight of her) 
(And I here I go again)" 


verse 3 
And here I go again 
Just want you to myself, don't wanna share you with no one else 
What the fuck you whispering for? You get on my nerves, you make me sick 
I think our relationship, it seems to be on the fritz 
I mean it's time that we just split and leave the 
Games behind your frame of mind ain't the same as mine 
I think you need to finish developing a little more mentally too 
Get the picture? That's a negative, Alicia, I will never give the Keys up 
To the crib, ever again, no reason not even a gift certificate from Tiffany's 
You better have an epiphany, slut, guess what? The Lease up 
I'm just mad it took the time it took me to discover 
You been using me for loot like I used you for looks 
Thought you was too good for me, huh, yeah 
Toots used to be my Carrie Underwood, I was your lumberjack 
But I can't stomach this, I'm leaving you, I'm not coming back 
She said "The fuck with that, where's my Louisville Slugger at?" 
She grabbed that fucking bat and swung it at my head 
I barely ducked and that's right 
When she came up with a kick to the nuts twice, steel toe 
Girl probably coulda put a 100 yard field goal, through the uprights 



Hook 

                       D5 C5           G5    F5 
You know this ain't love,   you know this ain't love 
                       D5 C5               G5      (mute) 
You know this ain't love, you know this ain't love (What is it then?) 
                       D5 C5           G5    F5  
It's desperation (She's looking for Mr. Right, wants me to be that guy to her) 
                       D5 C5           G5    F5 
It's desperation (I can't even put up a fight, cause I give in at the sight of her) 
(And I here I go again)" 


Correct if mistaken and enjoy :D
