I Need A Doctor Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em]I'm about to lose my m[C]ind
You've been gone for so [D]long
I'm runnin' out of time
I need a [Am]doc tor, call me a [C]doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life

[Verse 1]
I [Em]told the world, one day I would pay it back
Say it on tape, [C]and lay it, record it
so that one day I could play it back
But [D]I don't even know if I believe it
when I'm sayin' that
Doubts startin' to creep in, every day,
it's just so grey and black
[Am]Hope, I just need a ray of that,
'cause no one sees my vision
[C]When I play it for 'em, they just say it's wack,
but they don't know what [B]dope is
And I don't know if I was awake or asleep
when I wrote this
All I know is you came to me
when I was at my lowest
You [Em]picked me up, breathed new life in me,
I owe my life to you
But [C]for the life of me,
I don't see why you don't see like I do
[D]But it just dawned on me you lost a son,
demons fighting you, it's dark
Let me turn on the lights and brighten me
and enlighten you
I [Am]don't think you realize what you mean to me,
not the slightest clue
'Cause [C]me and you were like a crew,
I was like your sidekick
You gon' [B]either wanna fight
when I get off this fuckin' mic
Or you gon' hug me, but I'm outta options,

[Chorus 1]
there's nothin' else I can do 'cause
[Em]I'm about to lose my m[C]ind
You've been gone for so [D]long,
I'm runnin' out of time
I need a [Am]doc tor, call me a [C]doctor
I need a [B]doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life

[Verse 2]
It [Em]hurts when I see you struggle,
you come to me with ideas
[C]You say they're just pieces, so I'm puzzled,
'cause the shit I hear is [D]crazy
But you're either gettin' lazy
or you don't believe in you no more
Seems like your own opinion's
not one you can form
[Am]Can't make a decision,
you keep questionin' yourself
Second [C]guessin' and it's almost
like your beggin' for my help
Like I'm [B]your leader,
you're supposed to fuckin' be my mentor
I can endure no more
I demand you remember who you are
It was [Em]you, who believed in me
when everyone was tellin' you
Don't [C]sign me, everyone at the fuckin' label,
let's tell the truth
[D]You risked your career for me,
I know it as well as you
Nobody wanted to fuck with the white boy,
Dre, I'm cryin' in this booth
[Am]You saved my life,
now maybe it's my turn to save yours
But [C]I can never repay you,
what you did for me is way more
But [B]I ain't givin' up faith
and you ain't givin' up on me
Get up, Dre, I'm dyin',

[Chorus 2]
I need you, come back for fuck's sake
[Em]I'm about to lose my m[C]ind
You've been gone for so [D]long,
I'm runnin' out of time
I need a [Am]doctor, call me a [C]doctor
I need a [B]doctor, doctor
To bring me back to [Em]life
[C]Bring me back to [D]life
Bring me back to [Am]life[C]
I need a [B]doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life

[Verse 3]
It lit[Em]erally feels like a lifetime ago
But I still re[C]member the shit
like it was just yesterday, though
You walked [D]in, yellow jump suit,
whole room cracked jokes
Once you got inside the booth,
told you, mic smoke
[Am]Went through friends, some of them I put on,
but they just left
[C]They said they was ridin' to the death,
but where the fuck are they [B]now?
Now that I need them,
I don't see none of them
All I see is Slim,
fuck all you fair-weather friends,
all I need is him
Fuckin' [Em]backstabbers,
when the chips chips were down
you just laughed at us
[C]Now you 'bout to feel
the fuckin' wrath of Aftermath, fag[D]gots
You gon' see us in our lab jackets
and ask where the fuck we been?
You can kiss my indecisive ass
crack, [Am]maggots
And the crackers' ass, little cracker jack beat
[C]Makin' wack math, backwards producers,
I'm back bastards
[B]One more CD
and then I'm packin' up my bags
and as I'm leavin' I guarantee they'll scream,

[Chorus 3]
"Dre, don't leave us like that man" 'cause
[Em]I'm about to lose my m[C]ind
You've been gone for so [D]long,
I'm runnin' out of time
I need a [Am]doctor, call me a [C]doctor
I need a [B]doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life
