 (Chorus) 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C      C    
Now that all the smoke is gone(lighter) 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C      C 
And the battle finally won(give me a lighter) 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C      C  F Em D 
Victory`s finally ours (lighters up, lighters up) 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C      C 
History so loved, so long, so long, so long� 

(jay-z, verse) 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C     C 
In search of victory, she keeps it  
If only we could be together momentarily 
We could make love, and make history 
Why won`t you visit me, until she visits me 
I`ll be stuck with a sista, her name is defeat 
She gives me agony, so much agony 
She brings me so much pain 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C     C 
So much misery, like missing your last shot 
And fall to your knees . 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C      C  F Em D 
As the crowd screams, for the other team 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C     C 
I practice so hard for this moment victory don`t lead 
I know what this means, i`m stuck in this routine 
Whole new different day, but the same old things 
All i got is dreams, but nobody else could see 
Nobody else believe, nobody else but me 
Where are you victory, i need you desperately 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C      C  F Em D 
Not just for the moment. to make history  
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C     C 
Now that all the smoke is gone(lighter) 
And the battle finally WON (lighters) 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C      C  F Em D 
Victory`s finally ours (yea, yea, yea) 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C     C 
History so loved, so long, so long, so long� 

(jay-z, verse) 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C 
So now i`m flirting with death 
Hustla like a cheat, while victory wasn`t watching 
Took chances repeatedly 
As a teenage boy, before acne 
Before i got proactive, i couldn`t face sheet 
I just threw on my hoodie and headed to the streets 
I swear i met success, we lived together shortly 
A success is like lust, witch is good for the touch 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C      C  F  Em  D 
Witch is good for the moment, but she`s never enough 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C 
Everybody`s had her, she`s nothing like me 
A success is all i got, unfortunately 
But i`m burning down the block 
I`ve been in it down defeat 
But something tells me that there`s much more to see 
Before i get killed, cos i can`t get robbed 
So before me, success and death bandage 
I gotta get lost, i gotta find free 
We gotta be together to make history 

(Chorus) 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C 
Now that all the smoke is gone (lighters up) 
And the battle finally WON(lighter up) 
Victory`s finally ours (lighters up) 
History so loved, so long, so long, so long� 

(jay-z, verse) 
G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C 
Now history is mine, it taste so sweet 
She`s my trophy wife, she commin with me 
We have a baby who stutters` repeatedly 
We name him history 
He repeats after me 
He`s my legacy, son i`m a hard work 
Future of my past, he`ll explain who i be 
Rank me among the greats 
Either 1 2 or 3, if i ain`t number one 
Then i failed your victory 
Ain`t in it for the fame, that dies in 10 weeks 
Ain`t in it for the money, can`t take me when you live 
I wanna be remembered long after you breath 
Long after i`m gone, long after i breath 
I live all i am, in the hands of history 
Bless my last will testimony 
This is much more then a song 
It`s a baby shower, i`ve been waiting for this hour 
History your ours. 

(Chorus x2) 

G    G      F      F     D     D      C      C 
Now that all the smoke is gone 
And the battle finally rise 
Victory`s finally ours (lighters up) 
History so loved, so long, so long, so long�
