 [INTRO]

 Am E7 Am E7 
              E7   F E7 Am
 Where's my snare?
 Am
 I have no snare in my headphones
   Am           E7     Am E7 F E7 Am
 There you go, yeah, yo, yo
 
 [VERSE ONE]
           Am                      E7
 Have you ever been hated or discriminated against?
           Am                          E7
 I have, I've been protested and demonstrated against
          F                          E7
 Picket signs for my wicked rhymes, look at the times
               Am
 Sick is the mind of the motherfuckin' kid that's behind

            Am                           E7
 All this commotion, emotions run deep as oceans, explodin'
           Am                              E7
 Tempers flarin' from parents, just blow 'em off and keep goin'
             F                              E7
 Not takin' nothin' from no one, give 'em hell long as I'm breathin'
                Am
 Keep kickin' ass in the morning and takin' names in the evenin'

                     Am                 E7
 Leave 'em with a taste as sour as vinegar in they mouth
                   Am                            E7
 See, they can trigger me, but they'll never figure me out
              F                         E7
 Look at me now! I bet you're prob'ly sick of me now
              Am
 Ain't you, Mama? I'ma make you look so ridiculous now!

 [CHORUS]
             Am E7
 I'm sorry, Mama
                   Am      E7
 I never meant to hurt you
            F
 I never meant to make you cry
        E7                           Am
 But tonight I'm cleanin' out my closet (One more time!)

                   Am E7
 I said I'm sorry, Mama
  E7               Am     E7
 I never meant to hurt you
                   F
 I never meant to make you cry
        E7                        Am
 But tonight I'm cleanin' out my closet (Ha!)
 
 [VERSE TWO]
              Am
 I got some skeletons in my closet
     E7
 And I don't know if no one knows it
        Am                             E7
 So before they throw me inside my coffin and close it
          F                              E7
 I'ma expose it; I'll take you back to '73
   E7         Am
 Before I ever had a multi-platinum-selling CD

             Am                        E7
 I was a baby, maybe I was just a couple of months
              Am                            E7
 My faggot father must've had his panties up in a bunch
             F                          E7
 ‘Cause he split, I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye
           Am
 No, I don't, on second thought, I just fuckin' wished he would die

              Am                           E7
 I look at Hailie, and I couldn't picture leavin' her side
            Am                       E7
 Even if I hated Kim, I'd grit my teeth and I'd try
             F                                   E7
 To make it work with her at least for Hailie's sake
  E7                    Am
 I maybe made some mistakes
  Am
 But I'm only human, but I'm man enough to face 'em today

 Am                          E7
 What I did was stupid, no doubt it was dumb
                  Am                             E7
 But the smartest shit I did was take the bullets out of that gun
                  F                       E7
 ‘Cause I'da killed 'em, shit, I woulda shot Kim and him both
           Am
 It's my life, I'd like to welcome y'all to The Eminem Show

 [CHORUS]
             Am E7
 I'm sorry, Mama
                   Am      E7
 I never meant to hurt you
            F
 I never meant to make you cry
        E7                           Am
 But tonight I'm cleanin' out my closet (One more time!)

                   Am E7
 I said I'm sorry, Mama
  E7               Am     E7
 I never meant to hurt you
                   F
 I never meant to make you cry
        E7                        Am
 But tonight I'm cleanin' out my closet (Uh)
 
 [VERSE THREE]
                 Am                             E7
 Now, I would never diss my own mama just to get recognition
            Am                                    E7
 Take a second to listen 'fore you think this record is dissin'
             F                          E7
 But put yourself in my position, just try to envision
                    Am
 Witnessin' your mama poppin' prescription pills in the kitchen

                 Am                          E7
 Bitchin' that someone's always goin' through her purse and shit's missin'
                 Am
 Goin' through public housing systems
               E7
 Victim of Münchausen's Syndrome
           F                            E7
 My whole life I was made to believe I was sick when I wasn't
             Am
 'Til I grew up, now I blew up
        Am
 It makes you sick to your stomach, doesn't it?

 Am                                   E7
 Wasn't it the reason you made that CD for me, Ma?
                Am                         E7
 So you could try to justify the way you treated me, Ma?
             F
 But guess what, you're gettin' older now
            E7
 And it's cold when you're lonely
                Am
 And Nathan's growin' up so quick
              
 He's gonna know that you're phony

      Am                                  E7
 And Hailie's gettin' so big now, you should see her, she's beautiful
              Am                           E7
 But you'll never see her—she won't even be at your funeral (ha-ha!)
            F                            E7
 See, what hurts me the most is you won't admit you was wrong
                Am
 Bitch, do your song, keep tellin' yourself that you was a mom!

          Am                               E7
 But how dare you try to take what you didn't help me to get?!
            Am                              E7
 You selfish bitch, I hope you fuckin' burn in hell for this shit!
         F                             E7
 Remember when Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me?
               Am
 Well, guess what, I am dead—dead to you as can be!

 But tonight I'm cleanin' out my closet (One more time!)

  E7               Am     E7
 I never meant to hurt you
                   F
 I never meant to make you cry
        E7                        Am
 But tonight I'm cleanin' out my closet
