Blood on the Leaves Kanye West
the notes in parenthesis is just walking down, totally optional but i like to throw it in.
mostly the first part goes with the piano and the heavier part with the brass.
dunno if it's exactly right but it's playable! really easy to simplify
if you take out the C's and the parenthesis but yep.
revisions and edits very welcome.

(repeat for the rap)
To all my second string bitches, trying to get a baby
Trying to get a baby, now you talkin' crazy
i don't give a damn if you used to talk to Jay-Z
He ain't with you, he with Beyonce, you need to stop actin' lazy
She instagram herself like "Bad bitch alert"
He instagram his watch like "Mad rich alert"
He only wanna see that ass in reverse
Two thousand dollar bag with no cash in your purse
Now you sittin' courtside, wifey on the other side
Gotta keep 'em separated, i call that apartheid
Then she said she impregnated, that's the night your heart died
Then you gotta go and tell your girl and report that
Main reason cause your pastor said you can't abort that
Now your driver say that new Benz you can't afford that
All that cocaine on the table you can't snort that
That going to that owing money that the court got
On and on that alimony, uh, yeah-yeah, she got you homie
'Til death but do your part, unholy matrimony
[Dm5] [D#5]
