12Verse:
         Am14                     E15
13Have you ever been hated, or discriminated against?
      Am16                        E17
14I have, I've been protested and demostrated against
       F18                           E19
15Picket signs for my wickid rhymes, look at the times
            Am20
16Sick as the mind of the mother xxxxing kid that's behind
17
         Am21                              E22
18All this commotion, emotions run deep as oceans exploding
        Am23                                E24
19Tempers flaring from parents just blow em off and keep going
           F25                            E26
20Not taking nothing from no one, give em hell long as I'm breathing
             Am27
21Keep kicking ass in the morning, and taking names in the evening
22
          Am28                          E29
23Leave 'em with a taste as sour as vineger in they mouth
             Am30                            E31
24See they can trigger me, but they'll never figure me out
           F32                    E33
25Look at me now, I betcha prolly sick of me now
            Am34
26Ain't you mama, I'ma make you look so ridiculous now
27
28Chorus:
          Am35  E36
29I'm sorry mama
              Am37     E38
30I never meant hurt to
              F39
31I never meant make you cry
      E40                          Am41
32But tonight, I'm cleaning out my closet
33
34One More Time
                 Am42  E43

Verse -same as first Verse: Am49 E50     Am51 E52      F53  E54  Am-:
42I got some skeletons in my closet
43And I dont know if no one knows it
44So before they throw me inside my coffin and close it
45I'ma expose it, I'll take you back to '73
Before I ever had a multi-platinum selling CD55
46
47I was a baby maybe I was just a couple of months
48My faggy father must've had his panties up in a punch
49'Cause he split, I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye
50No I don't, on second thought I just xxxxing wished he would die
51
52I look at Hailie, and I couldn't picture leaving her side
53Even if I hated Kim, I grit my teeth and I try to make it work
54With her at least for Hailie's sake I maybe made some mistakes
55But I'm only human but I'm man enough to face them today
56
57What I did was stupid, no doubt it was dumb
58But the smartest xxxx I did was take the bullets outta that gun
59Cause I'd of killed em, xxxx I would've shot Kim and him both
60It's my life, I'd like to welcome ya'll to the Eminem show
61
62Chorus:
           Am56  E57
63I'm sorry mama
               Am58     E59
64I never meant hurt to
               F60
65I never meant make you cry
       E61                           Am62
66But tonight, I'm cleaning out my closet
67
68One More Time
                  Am63  E64
69I said I'm sorry mama
          Am65     E66
70I never meant hurt to you
               F67
71I never meant make you cry
       E68                           Am69
72But tonight, I'm cleaning out my closet
73
74Ha!

Verse -same as first Verse: Am70 E71     Am72 E73      F74  E75  Am-:
76Now I would never diss my own mama just to get recognition
77Take a second to listen for who you think this record is dissing
78But put yourself in my position, just try to invision
79Witnessing your mama popping prescription pills in the kitchen
80
81Bitching that someone's always going through her purse and xxxx's missing
82Going through public housing systems, victim of munchausen syndrome
83My whole life I was made to believe I was sick when I wasn't
84'Til I grew up, now I blew up it makes you sick to your stomach, doesn't it?
85
Wasn't it the reason you made that CD76 for me, ma?
86So you could try to justify the way you treated me, ma?
87But guess what, your getting older now and it's cold when your lonely
88And Nathan's growing up so quick he's gonna know that your phoney
89
90And Hailie's getting so big now, you should see her, she's beautiful
91But you'll never see her, she won't even be at your funeral *hahaha*
92See what hurts me the most, is you won't admit you was wrong
93Bitch, do your song, keep telling yourself that you was a mom
94
95But how dare you try to take what you didn't help me to get
96You selfish bitch, I hope you xxxxing burn in hell for this xxxx!
97Remember when Ronnie died and you said you wished it was me?
98Well guess what, I am dead, dead to you as can be
99
100Chorus:
           Am77  E78
101I'm sorry mama
               Am79     E80
102I never meant hurt to
               F81
103I never meant make you cry
       E82                           Am83
104But tonight, I'm cleaning out my closet
105
106One More Time

107I said I'm sorry mama
          Am86     E87
108I never meant hurt to you
               F88
109I never meant make you cry
       E89                           Am90
110But tonight, I'm cleaning out my closet
