19th Nervous Breakdown
19th Nervous Breakdown
E
You're the kind of person You meet at certain dismal dull affairs.
Center of a crowd, talking much too loud
Running up and down the stairs.
A
Well, it seems to me that you have seen too much in too few years.
E
And though you've tried you just can't hide
Your eyes are edged with tears.
B A
You better Stop Look around
E A
Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes, here it comes
E
Here comes your nine-teenth neNous breakdown.
When you were a chiId You were treated kind
But you were never brought 4p right.
You were always spoiled with a thausand toys
But stilI you cried all night,
Your mother who neglected you
Owes a miIlion dollars tax.
And your father's still perfecting ways of making ceiling wax.
You be_er stop, Iook around
Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes. here it comes
Here comes your nilne-teenth neNous breakdown.
B E
Oh, who's to blame, that girl's just insane.
A
Well nothing l do don't seem to work,
B E
It only seems to make matters worse. Oh please.
You were still in school
When you had that fool
Who really messed your mind.
And a_er that you turned your back
On treating peopIe kind.
On our first trip
l tried so hard to rearrange your mind.
But after while l realized you were disarranging mine.
You better stop, look around
Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes, here it comes
Here comes your nine-teenth neNous breakdown.
Here comes your nine-teenth neNous breakdown
Here comes yo4r nine-teenth neNous breakdown

A Lifetime Ago
D
ain't no blue skys anymore
ain't no mamas waiting by the kitchen door

I guess there's so much more
No more quiet neighborhoods
No kids playing cowboys in the woods
A
No dogs sleeping in their yards no more trading cards
D
would we do it if we could
F# G
It was only a lifetime ago
D A A7
in 20 years will anybody know anybody know why

There's no famlies anymore
Everything that once was good is rotton to the core

No more sundays at the park it's not safe here after dark
D

F# G
It was only a lifetime ago
D A A7 D
in 20 years will anybody know anybody know why

He adores the girl next door cos he's dying to get at her
But his mother knows the best about the matrimonial stakes ...CHORUS

All Along The Watchtower
All Along The Watchtower [Am G F G]
"There must be some kinda way out of here"
Said the joker to the thief
"There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief"
"Businessmen, they, they drink my wine
Plowmen dig my earth
None will level on the line
Nobody of it is worth", hey
"No reason to get excited"
The thief, he kindly spoke
"There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke"
"But you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now
The hour is getting late", hey
Hey
All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants too
Outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl, hey
All along the watchtower
All along the watchtower

Best Times(MN)
Best Times
A E
Every body seems so down down down
Crawling around on the ground ground ground
D E A
Maybe they've forgotten who they are
A E
When I look around I see sad sad faces
All the people living in grey places
D E A
They don't see just how beautiful they are
[Chorus]
D E A D
These are the best times anyone has ever had
D E A
We're all living like kings at the end of the world
So many people say it's bad bad bad
All the times that they've had had had
They don't know how bad things can be
Everyone seems to be so full of envy
They can't enjoy their own peice of candy
They don't know how sad that seems to me
[chorus]
[chorus]
[Bridge]
A/E D7 x2
It's hard to listen them whine whine whine
Give it to me 'cause it's mine mine mine
Maybe they should open up thier eyes
They all complain they feel alone lone lone
They feel so lost without their phone phone phone
Hang up the phone and say your last goodbyes
[Chorus]
at the end of the world
at the end of the world
at the end of the world

Bile Dem Cabbage Down
Bile Dem Cabbage Down (G to D Vamp)
G D
Went up on the mountain Just to give my horn a blow
G
Thought I heard my true love say Yonder comes my beau
D
Took my gal to the blacksmith shop To have her mouth made small
G
She turned around a time or two And swallowed shop and all
[Chorus between each verse]
G D
Bile dem cabbage down Turn dem hoecakes round
G C D G
The only song that I can sing Is bile dem cabbage down
Possum in a 'simmon tree Raccoon on the ground
Raccoon says you son-of-a-gun Shake some 'simmons down
Someone stole my old 'coon dog Wish they'd bring him back
He chased the big hogs through the fence And the little ones through the crack
Met a possum in the road Blind as he could be
Jumped the fence and whipped my dog And bristled up at me
Once I had an old gray mule His name was Simon Slick
He'd roll his eyes and back his ears And how that mule would kick
How that mule would kick He kicked with his dying breath
He shoved his hind feet down his throat And kicked himself to death
Raccoon has a bushy tail, Possum's tail is bare,
Rabbit's got no tail at all But a little bunch of hair.
Raccoon and the possum Rackin' cross the prairie,
Raccoon ax the possum Did she want to marry?
Possum is a cunning thing, He travels in the dark,
And never thinks to curl his tail Till he hears old Rover bark.
Possum up a 'simmon tree Raccoon on the ground
Raccoon says to the possum, Won't you shake them 'simmons down?
Jaybird died with the whoopin' cough, Sparrow died with the colic.
Along come the frog with a fiddle on his back, Inquirin' his way to the frolic.

Brave New World(MN)
The Ballad of David Ogilvy
F# D x2
F# D
You have clearly mistaken us for people who give a damn.
F# D
If you want our attention then send us a telegram.
A E
How are we supposed to know what you are thinking?
F# D
Our mind is like a concrete boat and soon we will be sinking.
A E
Look into our eyes and tell us what you see.
F# D F# E x2
The lights may be flashing but they're flashing a vacancy.
We'll make you a promise that you will never have to think.
Just belly up to the bar and we'll buy you another drink.
You'll tell us your secrets and your deepest dark passions.
We'll arrange the financing and serve it up as the latest fashions.
Don't let us hear you say you've missed the main feature.
The mall is your church and the TV is your preacher.
We've got we've got Swanson's frozen alibis; we keep them in the freezer.
We don't count on justice because we find her such a teaser.
Of course we both know that it's only a formality.
Soon we'll own the franchise to every locality.
Then you will be our good son loyal and dutiful
And we will be your mothers and you think that we're so beautiful
Don't let us hear you say you've missed the main feature.
The mall is your church and the TV is your preacher.

just a grown up child no chance to win

Hungry for days cold and confused

tattered blue jeans and worn out shoes

No place to go nothing to eat

no body likes you when you're broken and beat

living in the bottle clinging to the pill

No one wants to see you there so no one will

But you were once a boy with eyes of blue

and all your dreams in front of you
F Dm F Dm
in a tower of glass behind plank of oak
Bb C F
sits a lonely man in a thousand dollar coat
F Dm F Dm
looking out upon the darkening sky

he pours himself a drink and loosens his tie

and he was once a boy with eyes of blue

and the only thing he wanted was to be with you

And the rain falls the same on the victor and the slain

While we complain about the pain our time here circles the drain

As the bucket empties of tomorrows it fills instead with all our sorrows

You thought Aion was your friend but he'll forsake you in the end

and he was once a boy with eyes of blue

You could see that Pierre Truly loved the mademoiselle
And now the young Monsieur and Madame Have rung the chapel bell
C
C'esT La Vie say the old folks It goes to show you never can tell
They furnished off the apartment With a two room tag-end sale
The coolerator was crammed With TV dinners and Ginger Ale
But when Pierre found work The little money come in, worked out well
C'est la Vie say the old folks It goes to show you never can tell
They had a hi-fi phono Boy, did they let it blast
700 little records all rock and rhythm and jazz
But when the sun went down The rapid tempo of the music fell
C'est La Vie say the o1d folks It goes to show you never can tell
They bought a souped up chitney Was cherry red fifty-three
Drove it down to Or'eans To celebrate their anniversary
It was their where Pierre was wedded To the lovely mademoiselle
C'est La Vie say the old fo1ks It goes to show you never can tell
It was a teen-aged wedding And the old folks wished them well
You could see that Pierre Truly loved the mademoiselle
An d now the young Monsieur and Madame Have rung the chape1 bell

Down To The Waterline
Down To The Waterline
Bm F#m A E Bm
Sweet surrender on the quayside
You remember we used to run and hide
Bm F#m
In the shadow of the cargoes I take you one at a time
A E Bm
And we're counting all the numbers down to the waterline
Near misses on the dogleap stairways
French kisses in the darkened doorways
A foghorn blowing out wild and cold
A policeman shines a light upon my shoulder
[G Bm G A Bm]
Up comes a coaster fast and silent in the night
Over my shoulder all you can see are the pilot lights
No money in our jackets and our jeans are torn
Your hands are cold but your lips are warm
[G Bm G A Bm]
E / C#m / C

F# / G / A / Bm
She can see him on the jetty where they used to go
She can feel him in the places where the sailors go
When she's walking by the river and the railway line
She can still hear him whisper
Let's go down to the waterline

Early Days(MN)
Early Days
Am E
Oh bright morning time is dawning It's the sunrise of our longing
Am E
We have risen from the water after mother nature's daughter
F E
once we find her we have won
Am
In our early days we could be so cruel
F
but now we're tame living in the human zoo
Am
Seems we found a way to stop the fools
F
now we never know what we're s'posed to do
Am F C G
But that's okay that's okay that's okay
Am
It really seems absurd to posess a mind
F
as long as we have gods and kings to keep our hearts in line
Am
why do we have eyes what is there to see
F
will we ever graduate our infancy
Am F C G
But that's okay that's okay that's okay
Am F
please my master spare the sinner can't you see he's growing thinner
Bb G
with each step he's sinking deeper and the mountain's getting steeper
Am F
Time means nothing to the cause when the cause is getting lost
Bb G
so lost I am and lost I'll be until I bend your will to me
Am
In our early days we could be so cruel
F
it seems that we've escaped the human zoo
Am
You'll never find a way to stop the fools
F
now we know exactly what we're s'posed to do
Am F C E
But that's okay that's okay that's okay
Am E
Oh dark evening time is waning It's the twilight stop complaining
Am E
We have fallen from the sky without a clue or reason why
F E
once we find out we have won

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?
Em7 Em6 Em5 Em
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near.
Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Everything Is Broken
Everything Is Broken (1 4 5 in E)
Broken lines, broken strings, broken threads, broken springs
Broken idols, broken heads, people sleeping in broken beds
Ain’t no use jivin’, ain’t no use jokin’
Everything is broken
Broken bottles, broken plates, broken switches, broken gates
Broken dishes, broken parts, streets are filled with broken hearts
Broken words never meant to be spoken
Everything is broken
Broken cutters, broken saws, broken buckles, broken laws
Broken bodies, broken bones, broken voices on broken phones
Take a deep breath, feel like you’re chokin’
Everything is broken
Broken hands on broken plows, broken treaties, broken vows
Broken pipes, broken tools, people bending broken rules
Hound dog howlin’, bullfrog croakin’
Everything is broken

Five Years
FIVE YEARS / David Bowie
G Em
Pushing through the market square so many mothers crying
A C
News had just come over We had five years left of trying
G Em
News guy wept and told us earth was really dying
A C
Cried so much, his face was wet Then I knew he was not lying.
G
I heard telephones, opera house, favorite melodies
Em
I saw boys, toys, electric irons and T.V's
A
My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare
C
I had to cram so many things to store every thing in there
Am
And all the fat skinny people
C Am
And all the tall short people
C G
And all the nobody people
C D
And all the somebody people
Am C G
I never thought I'd need so many people
A girl my age went off her head hit some tiny children
If the black had not pulled her off I think she would have killed them
A soldier with a broken arm Fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadilac
A cop Knelt and kissed the feet of a priest And a queer threw up at at the sight of that
I think I saw you in an ice cream parlour drinking milkshakes cold and long
smiling and waving and looking so fine don't think you knew you were in this song
And it was cold, and it rained, so i felt like an actor
And I thought of Ma, and I wanted to get back there
Your face, Your race, the way that you talk
I kiss you, you're beautifull, I want you to walk. we got
[[: five years stuck on my eyes
five years what a surprise we got
five years my brain hurts a lot
five years that's all we got we've got

Your day breaks Your mind aches

You find that all her words

Of kindness linger on

When she no longer needs you
She wakes up She makes up
She takes her time
And doesn't feel she has to hurry
She no longer needs you
Dm A7
And in her eyes you see nothing
Dm A7 Dm
No sign of love behind the tears
A7 Dm
Cried for no one
A7 Dm Gsus G
A love that should have lasted years
You want her You need her
And yet you don't believe her
When she says her love is dead
You think she needs you
And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears
Cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years
You stay home She goes out
She says that long ago
She knew someone
But now he's gone
She doesn't need him
Your day breaks Your mind aches
There will be times
When all the things she said
Will fill your head
You won't forget her
And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears
Cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years

Give me one reason
Give me one reason (1 4 5 in G)
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Said I don't want leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind
Baby I got your number and I know that you got mine
But you know that I called you, I called too many times
You can call me baby, you can call me anytime
But you got to call me
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Said I don't want leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind
I don't want no one to squeeze me - they might take away my life
I don't want no one to squeeze me - they might take away my life
I just want someone to hold me and rock me through the night
This youthful heart can love you yes and give you what you need
I said this youthful heart can love you and give you what you need
But I'm too old to go chasing you around
Wasting my precious energy
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here - and I'll turn right back around
Said, I don't want leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind
Baby just give me one reason - Give me just one reason why
Baby just give me one reason - Give me just one reason why I should stay
Said I told you that I loved you
And there ain't no more to say

Gloria
Gloria
(big ole 3 chord vamp E D A)
Jesus died for somebody's sins, but not mine meltin' in a pot of thieves wild card up my sleeve
slick heart of stone my sins my own they belong to me, me
people say, "beware!" but I don't care the words are just rules and regulations to me, me
I-I walk in a room, you know I look so proud
I'm movin' in this here atmosphere, where anything's allowed
and I go to this here party and I just get bored
until I look out the window, see a pretty young girl
humpin' on the parking meter, leanin' on the parking meter
oh, she looks so good, oh, she looks so fine
and I got this crazy feeling and then I'm gonna ah-ah make her mine
ooh I'll put my spell on her
here she comes walkin' down the street here she comes comin' through my door
here she comes crawlin' up my stair here she comes waltzin' through the hall
in a pretty red dress and oh, she looks so good, oh, she looks so fine
and I got this crazy feeling that I'm gonna ah-ah make her mine
and then I hear this knockin' on my door hear this knockin' on my door
and I look up into the big tower clock and say, "oh my God it's midnight!"
and my baby is walkin' through the door leanin' on my couch
she whispers to me and I take the big plunge and oh, she was so good
and oh, she was so fine and I'm gonna tell the world
that I just ah-ah made her mine and I said, "darlin' --
Tell me you're mine" - she told me "you're mine" she whispered to me, she told me "you're mine"
Then the nightmare, then the nightmare, then the nightmare, then the nightmare - G-L-O-R-I-A
G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria
And there at the stadium There were twenty thousand girls tried to make love to me
Marie, and Ruth, but to tell you the truth I didn't hear them, I didn't see
I let my eyes rise to the big tower clock and I heard those bells chimin', made my heart go
ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong. ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong
Do you remember the time, when I came to your room
when you whispered to me, when you took the big plunge
and ohhh, you were so good, oh, you were so fine
and I gotta tell the world that I made you mine made you mine
made you mine made you mine made you mine made you mine
G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria,
G-L-O-R-I-A Gloria
and the tower bells chime, and the tower bells chime, they're singing,
"Jesus died for somebody's sins ... but not mine."

Green Door by Jim Lowe

Midnight one more night without sleepin' Watchin' 'til the mornin' comes creepin'
B7 A E
Green door what's that secret you're keepin'?
There's an old piano And they play it hot Behind the green door
Don't know what they're doin' But they laugh a lot Behind the green door
Wish they'd let me in So I could find out What's behind the green door
Knocked once Tried to tell 'em I've been there
Door slammed Hospitality's thin there Wonder just what's goin' on in there
Saw an eyeball peepin' Through a smoky cloud
Behind the green door When I said Joe sent me
Someone laughed out loud Behind the green door
All I want to do is join the happy crowd Behind the green door
[Interlude]
Midnight one more night without sleepin' Watchin' 'til the mornin' comes creepin'
Green door what's that secret you're keepin'?
Green door what's that secret you're keepin'?
Green door

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
well your faith was strong but you needed proof
you saw her bathing on the roof
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to her kitchen chair
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
and from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
baby I've been here before
i've seen this room and I've walked this floor
i used to live alone before I knew you
and I've seen your flag on the marble arch
and love is not a victory march
it's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
there was a time when you let me know
what's really going on below
but now you never show that to me do you?
but remember when I moved in you
and the holy dove was moving too
and every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
maybe there's a God above
but all I've ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
and it's not a cry that you hear at night
it's not somebody who's seen the light
it's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Halleluuuu
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Halleluuuuujah

There is a house in New Orleans
Am C E E7
They call the Rising Sun
Am C D F
And It's been the ruin of many a poor boy
Am E Am C D F Am E Am E
And God, I know, I'm one
My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new blue jeans
My father was a gambling man
Down in New Orleans
And the only things a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a-drunk
I've got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I'm going back to New Orleans
To wear the ball and chain
So mothers, tell your children
Mot to do what I have done
Spend your life in sin and misery
In the house of the Rising Sun

I Think By Myself(MN)
I Think By Myself
I read the news today, same news as yesterday
an average man lost his way, then he killed his family.
So as not to be outdone, a young child choose his favorite gun
just another show and tell, that didn’t go so well.
[chorus]
I think by myself, not like anyone else.
I think by myself, not like anyone else.
I bought a record that sold a million clones,
a million clones to a million drones
they’re all connected by a million phones,
a million zombies yet they’re all alone.
you know I voted for a congressman ,he left for DC in a hippie van
now he’s working for a Chinese man, and selling organs to Americans.
[chorus]
I know about two wealthy blokes, they bought a shotgun
then they killed their folks
they suffered harshly at butt of jokes,
The justice system is just a hoax .
We all have faulty wiring once in awhile,
but then where better look at us smile
we watch the TV we watch the trial,
it flickers in our eyes and then turns to bile.
[chorus]
[chorus] To fade.

I keep my eyes wide open all the time.

I keep the ends out for the tie that binds

Because you're mine, I walk the line
I finda it very, very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day is through
Yes, I'll admit I'm a fool for you
Because you're mine, I walk the line
As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I've known proves that it's right
Because you're mine, I walk the line
You've got a way to keep me on your side
You give me cause for love that I can't hide
For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide
Because you're mine, I walk the line

Everybody's pinned you and nobody cares
He's got the works, gives you sweet taste
Then you gotta split because you got no time to waste

Hey baby, don't you holler, don't you ball and shout
I'm feeling good, I'm gonna work it on out
I'm feeling good, feeling so fine

E EmMaj7
Sometimes when the mood is right
A A7 Am Am7
And all around you becomes very quiet
E A A7
If you listen very carefully
E B7 E
You can hear the whispers of your mind
Then the mind slips into insanity
And all the world becomes black and white
Soon the idea of morality
has no place inside your head
A
And if things can’t be
A7
like they are on TV
Am
Then they should be you say
Am7
So you make them that way
Was there ever a time, you wonder a simpler time
When your state of mind was at peace
Was your world filled with happier moments
That offered you a better release
Then your mind snapped like a broken toy
And your friends became your enemies
If you listen very carefully
You can hear the whispers of your mind
And if things can’t be
like they are on TV
Then they should be you say
So you make them that way

La Mort
La Mort
La mort m`attend comme une vieille fille Au rendez-vous de la faucille
Pour mieux cueillir le temps qui passe La mort m`attend comme une princesse
A l`enterrement de ma jeunesse Pour mieux pleurer le temps qui passe
La mort m`attend comme Carabosse A l`incendie de nos noces
Pour mieux rire du temps qui passe
[Chorus]
Mais qu`y a-t-il derrière la porte Et qui m`attend dĂ©jĂ
Ange ou démon qu`importe Au devant de la porte il y a toi
La mort attend sous l`oreiller Que j`oublie de me réveiller
Pour mieux glacer le temps qui passe La mort attend que mes amis
Me viennent voir en pleine nuit Pour mieux se dire que le temps passe
La mort m`attend dans tes mains claires Qui devront fermer mes paupières
Pour mieux quitter le temps qui passe
[Chorus]
La mort m`attend aux dernières feuilles De l`arbre qui fera mon cercueil
Pour mieux clouer le temps qui passe La mort m`attend dans les lilas
Qu`un fossoyeur lancera sur moi Pour mieux fleurir le temps qui passe
La mort m`attend dans un grand lit Tendu aux toiles de l`oubli
Pour mieux fermer le temps qui passe
[Chorus]
My death waits like an old roué so confident I'll go his way
whistle to him and the passing time... My death waits like a bible truth
at the funeral of my youth weep loud for that -
and the passing time... My death waits like
a witch at night as surely as our love is bright
let's not think about the passing time
[Chorus]
But whatever lies behind the door there is nothing much to do...
angel or devil, I don't care for in front of that door...
there is you.
My death waits like a beggar blind who sees the world through an unlit mind
throw him a dime for the passing time... My death waits there between your thighs
your cool fingers will close my eyes lets think of that and the passing time
My death waits to allow my friends a few good times before it ends
so let's drink to that and the passing time
[Chorus]
My death waits there among the leaves in magicians mysterious sleeves
rabbits and dogs and the passing time my death waits there among the flowers
where the blackest shadow, blackest shadow cowers let's pick lilacs for the passing time
My death waits there, in a double bed sails of oblivion at my head
so pull up the sheets against the passing time
[Chorus]

Lets All Go To The Lobby
LET'S ALL GO TO THE LOBBY
Lyrics: Jack K. Tillar to the folk song "We Won't Be Home Until Morning"
Let's all go to the lobby;
Let's all go to the lobby;
Let's all go to the lobby
To get ourselves a treat.
Delicious things to eat;
The popcorn can't be beat.
The sparkling drinks are just dandy;
The chocolate bars and nut candy.
So let's all go to the lobby
To get ourselves a treat.
Let's all go to the lobby
To get ourselves a treat.

Life During Wartime
Life During Wartime
Am
Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons, packed up and ready to go
Heard of some gravesites, out by the highway, a place where nobody knows
The sound of gunfire, off in the distance, I'm getting used to it now
Lived in a brownstore, lived in the ghetto, I've lived all over this town
E
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no fooling around
No time for dancing, or lovey dovey, I ain't got time for that now
Am
Transmit the message, to the receiver, hope for an answer some day
I got three passports, a couple of visas, you don't even know my real name
High on a hillside, the trucks are loading, everything's ready to roll
I sleep in the daytime, I work in the nightime, I might not ever get home
E
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no fooling around
This ain't no mudd club, or C. B. G. B., I ain't got time for that now
Am
Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit? Heard about Pittsburgh, P. A.?
You oughta know not to stand by the window somebody might see you up there
I got some groceries, some peant butter, to last a couple of days
But I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no headphones, ain't got no records to play
E
Why stay in college? Why go to night school? Gonna be different this time
Can't write a letter, can't send a postcard, I can't write nothing at all
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no fooling around
I'd like to kiss you, I'd love you hold you I ain't got no time for that now
Am
Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock, we blended with the crowd
We got computer, we're tapping pohne lines, I know that ain't allowed
We dress like students, we dress like housewives, or in a suit and a tie
I changed my hairstyle, so many times now, I don't know what I look like!
You make me shiver, I feel so tender, we make a pretty good team
Don't get exhausted, I'll do some driving, you ought to get some sleep
Get you instructions, follow directions, then you should change your address
Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next day, whatever you think is best
Burned all my notebooks, what good are notebooks? They won't help me survive
My chest is aching, burns like a furnace, the burning keeps me alive
E
Try to stay healthy, physical fitness, don't want to catch no disease
Try to be careful, don't take no chances, you better watch what you say

Try to set the night on fire.
The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose.
And our love become a funeral pyre
Come on baby ...
The time to hesitate...(all verse 2)
Come on baby ...
You know that it...(all verse 1)
Come on baby ...
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire
Try to set the night on fire

D G C D G C D
To be without a home Like a complete unknown
D G C D7
Like a rollin' stone
You've gone to the finest schools, alright, Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
You never had to live out on the street
But now you're gonna have to get used to it
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulders a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal
How does it feel? How does it feel?
To be on your own, with no direction home
A complete unknown, like a rolling stone
You never turned around to see the frowns
On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you
Never understood that it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You said you'd never campromise
With the Mystery Tramp but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis, as you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And he says, ''Do you want to make a deal?''
How does it feel? How does it feel?
to have to be on your own, vith no direction home
Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone
Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're all drinkin', thinkin' that they've got it made
E_changing all kinds of precious gifts
But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Mapoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now he calls you you can't refuse
When you got nothin' you got nothin' to lose
Vou're invisible now you've got no secrets to conceal
How does it feel? Aaah, how does it feel?
To be on your own, with no direction home
Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone

Louie Louie
Louie, Louie,
me gotta go.
Louie, Louie,
me gotta go.
A fine little girl, she wait for me;
me catch a ship across the sea.
I sailed the ship all alone;
I never think I'll make it home
Three nights and days we sailed the sea;
me think of girl constantly.
On the ship, I dream she there;
I smell the rose in her hair.
Me see Jamaica moon above;
It won't be long me see me love.
Me take her in my arms and then
I tell her I never leave again.
A fine little bitch, she waits for me;
she gets her kicks on top of me.
Each night I take her out all alone;
she ain't the kind I lay at home
Each night at ten, I lay her again;
I fuck my girl all kinds of ways.
And on that chair, I lay her there;
I felt my boner in her hair.
If she's got a rag on, I'll move above;
It won't be long, she'll slip it off.
I'll take her in my arms again;
tell her I'd rather lay her again.

Mary Jane's Last Dance
Mary Jane's Last Dance
She grew up in an Indiana town
Had a good-lookin' mama who never was around
But she grew up tall and she grew up right
With them Indiana boys on them Indiana nights
Well, she moved down here at the age of eighteen
She blew the boys away, was more than they'd seen
I was introduced and we both started groovin'
I said, "I dig you baby, but I got to keep movin' on"
Keep movin' on
[Chorus]
Last dance with Mary Jane One more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in And I'm tired of this town again
Well, I don't know, but I've been told
You never slow down, you never grow old
I'm tired of screwin' up, tired of going down
Tired of myself, tired of this town
Oh, my my, oh, hell yes
Honey, put on that party dress
Buy me a drink, sing me a song
Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long
[Chorus]
There's pigeons down on Market Square
She's standin' in her underwear
Lookin' down from a hotel room
The nightfall will be comin' soon
Oh, my my, oh, hell yes
You got to put on that party dress
It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone
I hit my last number and walked to the road
[Chorus]

Am F G D C
maybe it wasn't meant to be like this at all
Am F G
maybe it wasn't meant to be so
Am F G D C
maybe we wern't supposed to live this long
Am F G F
maybe the night will save us I don't know
our lovers conversations
have been replaced by abrievations
we each pretend to know what the other is saying
life just happens so slowly
so slowly you don't really notice
It's quiet subtle game that we're playing
[Chorus]
Another tragic disaster
Another night of lonlines and tears
Another reason to lower you expectations
One more torchered memory
One more sinking feeling
One more past that you can never return to
[Chorus]

Me And Julio Down By The School Yard
Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard
Intro: A D | A E | A D | A E |
A
Mama Pajama rolled out of bed
D
and she ran to the police station
E
When the papa found out he began to shout
A D A
and that's what started the investigation
E A
But it's against the 1aw, it was against the law
E A
What the mama saw, was against the law
Well the mama looks down and she spit on the ground
Every time my name gets mentioned
An d the papa says ''Oy, when I get that boy
I'm gonna stick him in the house of detention!''
[Chorus]
D A
And I'm on my way, I don't know where I'm going
D A B E
I'm on my way, takin' my time but I don't know where
D A
Goodbye to Rosie, Queen of Corona
A G D E A D A E
See you, me, and Julio down by the schoolyard
A G D E A
See you, me, and Julio down by the schoolyard
break: D |D |A |A |D |D |A B|E |D |D
A |A |A G |D E |A D |A E |A G |D E |A D |A E |
In a couple of days they come and take me away
But the press let the story leak
And when the radical priest come and get me released
We's all on the cover of Mewsweek.
[Chorus]
This song also works well if one guitar plays in A as described and
the other capos 2 and plays in G.

Miss You
MISS YOU
I've been holding out so long I've been sleeping all alone
Lord I miss you I've been hanging on the phone
I've been sleeping all alone I want to kiss you
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
Well, I've been haunted in my sleep
You've been starring in my dreams Lord I miss you
I've been waiting in the hall
Been waiting on your call When the phone rings
It's just some friends of mine that say,
"Hey, what's the matter man? We're gonna come around at twelve
With some Puerto Rican girls that are just dyin' to meet you.
We're gonna bring a case of wine Hey, let's go mess and fool around
You know, like we used to"
Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah
Oh everybody waits so long Oh baby why you wait so long
Won't you come on! Come on!
I've been walking in Central Park Singing after dark
People think I'm crazy I've been stumbling on my feet
Shuffling through the street Asking people, "What's the matter with you boy?"
Sometimes I want to say to myself Sometimes I say
Oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh oooh
I won't miss you child
I guess I'm lying to myself It's just you and no one else
Lord I won't miss you child You've been blotting out my mind
Fooling on my time No, I won't miss you, baby, yeah
Lord, I miss you child
Aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah aaah

Moondance
Moondance
Well, it's a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are fallin'
To the sound of the breezes that blow
An' I'm trying to please to the callin'
Of your heart strings that play soft and low
And all the nights magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
Can I just have one more moondance with you, my love?
Can I just make some more romance with you, my love?
Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I can't wait 'til the morning has come
And I know now the time is just right
And straight in to my arms you will run
And when you come, my heart will be waiting
To make sure that you're never alone
There and then, all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then, I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you can't hide
Can I just have one more moondance with you, my love?
Can I just make some more romance with you, my love?
One more moon dance with you
In the moon light, on a magic night
All the moon light, on a magic night
Can I just have one more moondance with you, my love?

What a drag it is getting old
[Verse 1]
Em
Things are different today
I hear ev'ry mother say
F D
Mother needs something today to calm her down
G
And though she's not really ill
C Am
There's a little yellow pill
D7
She goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper
Em
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day
[Verse 2]
Things are different today
I hear every mother say
Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag
So she buys an instant cake and she buys a frozen steak
And goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper
And to help her on her way, get her through her busy day
[Chorus]
Doctor, please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old
[Verse 3]
Men just aren't the same today
I hear ev'ry mother say
They just don't appreciate that you get tired
They're so hard to satisfy. You can tranquilise your mind
So go running for the shelter of your mother's little helper
And four help you through the night, help to minimise your plight
[Chorus]
Doctor, please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old
[Verse 4]
Life's just much too hard today
I hear ev'ry mother say
The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore
And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose
No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
They just helped you on your way through your busy dying day

My co-worker's a prick and my boss is a slob
I won't be just average I'll try something new
but there are so many options I don't know what to do

My Guitar Wants To Kill Your Mama
My Guitar Wants To Kill Your Mama
You know, your mama and your daddy
Saying I'm no good to you
They call me dirty from the alley
Till I don't know what to do
I get so tired of sneakin' around
Just to get to your back door
I crawled past the garbage and
Your mama jumped out, screamin'
"Don't come back no more"
I can't take it
My guitar wants to kill your mama
My guitar wants to kill your mama
My guitar wants to burn your dad
I get real mean when it makes me mad
Later I tried to call you
Your mama told me you weren't there
She told me don't bother to call again
Unless I cut off all my hair
I get so tired of sneakin' around
Just to get to your back door
I crawled past the garbage and
Your mama jumped out, screamin'
"Don't come back no more"
Later I tried to call you
Your mama told me you weren't there
She told me don't bother to call again
Unless I cut off all my hair
I get so tired of sneakin' around
Just to get to your back door
I crawled past the garbage and
Your mama jumped out, screamin'
"Don't come back no more"
My guitar wants to kill your mama
My guitar wants to kill your mama
My guitar wants to burn your dad

Mystery Dance
Mystery Dance
Romeo was restless, he was ready to kill
He jumped out the window 'cause he couldn't sit still
Juliet was waiting with a safety net
He said, "Don't bury me 'cause I'm not dead yet"
(CHORUS)
Why don't you tell me about the mystery dance
I wanna know about the mystery dance
Why don't you show me
'Cause I've tried and I've tried, and I'm still mystified
I can't do it anymore and I'm not satisfied
Well, I remember when the lights went out
And I was tryin' to make it look like it was never in doubt
She thought that I knew, and I thought that she knew
So both of us were willing, but we didn't know how to do it
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Well, I was down under the covers in the middle of the night
Tryin' to discover my left foot from my right
You can see those pictures in any magazine
But what's the use of looking when you don't know what they mean?
(REPEAT CHORUS)
I'm gonna walk right up to heaven dodging lightening rods
I'm going to have this very personal conversation with God
I'll say you've got the information why don't you say so
Well say I've been around and i still don't know
(REPEAT CHORUS)
I can't do it anymore and I'm not satisfied
I can't do it anymore and I'm not satisfied
I can't do it anymore and I'm not satisfied
I can't do it anymore and I'm not satisfied
I can't do it anymore and I'm not satisfied
I can't do it anymore and I'm not satisfied

Needle And The Damage Done
I caught you knockin'
at my cellar door
I love you, baby,
can I have some more
Ooh, ooh, the damage done.
I hit the city and
I lost my band
I watched the needle
take another man
Gone, gone, the damage done.
I sing the song
because I love the man
I know that some
of you don't understand
Milk-blood
to keep from running out.
I've seen the needle
and the damage done
A little part of it in everyone
But every junkie's
like a settin' sun.

Can I speak Double Dutch to a real double duchess?
Down on the mainspring, listen to the tick tock,
Clock all the faces that move in on your biock,
Twice shy and dog tired because you've been bitten,
Everything you say now sounds like it was ghost written.
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
E A E
Like, in London, they'll take you to heart after a little while,
C D
Though I look right at home, I still feel like an exile
Somehow I found myself down at the dockside,
Thinking about the old days of Liverpool and Rotherhithe,
Transparent people who live on the other side,
Living a life that is almost like suicide,

New Orleans Is Sinking
New Orleans Is Sinking
Bourbon blues on the street, loose and complete
Under skies all smokey blue-green
I can't forsake a dixie dead-shake
So we danced the sidewalk clean
My memory is muddy, what's this river that I'm in?
New Orleans is sinking man and I don't wanna swim
Colonel Tom, What's wrong? What's going on?
You can't tie yourself up for a deal
He said, "Hey north you're south shut your big mouth,
You gotta do what you feel is real"
Ain't got no picture postcards, ain't got no souvenirs
My baby, she don't know me when I'm thinking bout those years
Pale as a light bulb hanging on a wire
Sucking up to someone just to stoke the fire
Picking out the highlights of the scenery
Saw a little cloud that looked a little like me
I had my hands in the river
My feet back up on the banks
Looked up to the lord above
And said, "Hey man thanks"
Sometimes I feel so good, I gotta scream
She said Gordie baby I know exactly what you mean
She said, she said, I swear to god she said...
My memory is muddy what's this river that I'm in?
New Orleans is sinking man and I don't wanna swim

No Rest(MN)
No Rest
Dm
Woke up this morning with so much to do
Then I saw the morning light shining on you
your leg and the bedsheet twist around
well all this better be done before the sun goes down
C F Em E
another setting sun
We test the day if the promise is high
much too busy to live and much too busy to die
gotta plant the seed and water the ground
and all this better be done before you're six feet down
another setting sun
the silhouette of your face as the sun touched the ground
we've given up looking for things that can never be found
as the day draws cold and leaves us no doubt
and all this better be done before the lights go out
another setting sun
F C
Nothing good is easy
F G
nothing good is free
F C F Em E
So no rest for you and no rest for me
we've got it all riding on the line
we need to make this deal before it looses it's shine
you said we're in this together so cut me some slack
'cause all this better be done before the devil gets back
another setting sun
The phone keeps ringing and they're calling for you
and all this better be done before your note comes due
The clock keeps ticking and we're counting on luck
and all this better be done before our time is up

It's no good you thinking that you are still mine
You're out of touch my baby My poor unfaithful baby
I said baby, baby, baby, you're out of time

People Change
I thought I knew you but I don't know you
I thought I knew you but I don't know you at all
People change right before your very eyes
Right before your very eyes
Last winter I could almost read your mind
Last fall we were still tow of a kind
But people change you can see it in their eyes
You can see it in their eyes
I didn't see you grow I didn't even know
I guess I didn't want to know
[Break]
I was not afraid but now that's gone
I was not afraid but I should have known it all along
People change that's just a fact
But once they do they don't come back

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday the regular crowd shuffles in
C Am F G C
There's an old man sitting next to me making love to his tonic and gin
C Am F D7
He says son can you play me a memory im not really sure how it goes
C Am F G C
But its sad and its sweet and I knew it compIete when I wore a younger mans clothes
Chorus;
Am F Am G
Sing us a song your the piano man Sing us a song tonight
Well were all in the mood for a melody and you've got us feeling all right
Now Paul at the bar he's a friend of mine, he gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a Joke and a light of your smoke but there's some pIace that
He'd rather be
He says biIf I believe this is killing me as the smile ran away from his face
WelI l'm sure that I could be a movie star if I could get out of this place
Now Paul is a real estate noveIist who never had time for a wife
And he's talking with Davy who's stiII in the navy and probab Iy wiII be for life
And the waitress is practicing politics As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes they're sharing a drink they call loneliness but its better than drinking alone
its a pretty good crowd for a Saturday And the manager gives me a smile
Cause he knows that its me they've been coming to see To forget about life for
a whiIe
And the piano sounds like a carnival and the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar and say man what are you doing
here?

Tilt back your head and take a gulp

before you drown in all this pulp
F D
Drink till your dead
i know your favorite brand of cigarette
and what you've done but i won't tell her yet
you'll never hide yourself from lady death
she wants to watch draw your final breath
ah's
i hear movment through the hotel door
I see foot prints on the kitchen floor
I think she killed him with butcher knife
I think i'll wrap this case by friday night
ah's
i got a phone call but there's no one there
she wants to know right now but i don't care
i smell the powder from a smoking gun
you can't hide from death but you can run
ah's
shadowy figures in window frames
hard boiled dicks and busty dames
turns out the chase in never what it seems
black and white is for the movie screens

she won't come to her senses
she knows when to fight and she knows when to run
you had better look out she's got a gun
She is tired
of sitting on the fence
trying to make some sense
of the people she sees and the things that they do
She thinks that now
is the time to make her play
it doesn't matter what you say
when she's done with you
she's done with you

Sixteen Tons
Sixteen Tons - Tennessee Ernie Ford
Some people say a man is made outta mud
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood and skin and bones
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong
[Chorus]
You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the straw boss said "Well, a-bless my soul"
[Chorus]
I was born one mornin', it was drizzlin' rain
Fightin' and trouble are my middle name
I was raised in the canebrake by an ol' mama lion
Cain't no-a high-toned woman make me walk the line
[Chorus]
If you see me comin', better step aside
A lotta men didn't, a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't a-get you
Then the left one will
[Chorus]

In the cool of the evening
when everything is getting kinda groovy
I call you up and ask you
if you'd like to go with me and see a movie
first you say no, you've got some plans for the night
then you stop and say "alright"
love is kinda crazy with a spooky little boy like you
you always keep me guessing
I never seem to know what you are thinking
and if a girl looks at you
it's for sure your little eye will be a-winking
I get confused 'cause I don't know where I stand
and then you smile and hold my hand
love is kinda crazy with a spooky little boy like you
Spooky
Maybe someday you'll decide to stop these games
that you've been playing
I'm gonna tell you all the things my heart's
been dying to be saying
just like a ghost you've been haunting my dreams
so I proposed on Halloween
love is kinda crazy with a spooky little boy like you

Well, I don't know why I came here tonight.
I got a feeling that something ain't right.
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
and I'm wondering how I'll get down those stairs.
Clowns to left of me, jokers to the right,
here am I stuck in the middle with you.

Summertime Blues
summertime blues
Well, I'm gonna raise a fuss I'm gonna raise a holler
About a working all summer Just to try to earn a dollar
Well, time I called my baby Try to get a date
My boss says, no dice son You gotta work late
Sometimes I wonder What I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure For the summertime blues
Oh, well my Mom and Poppa told me, son You gotta make some money
If you want to use the car To go ridin' next Sunday
Well I didn't go to work Told the boss I was sick
Well you can't use the car Cause you didn't work a lick
Sometimes I wonder What I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure For the summertime blues
I'm gonna take two weeks Gonna have a fine vacation
I'm gonna take my problem To the United Nations
Well I called my congressman And he said, whoa
I'd like to help you son But you're too young to vote
Sometimes I wonder What I'm a gonna do
But there ain't no cure For the summertime blues

Sway
Sway
When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more
Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
You know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now

Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane
Standin' on a corner, suitcase in my hand.
Jack's in his car, says to Jane, who's in her vest,
Me, babe, I'm in a rock n' roll band.
Ridin' in a Stutz Bearcat, Jim,
those were different times.
And the poets studied rows of verse,
and all the ladies rolled their eyes
Sweet Jane.....Sweet Jane.....Sweet Jane
Now, Jack, he is a banker, and Jane, she is a clerk.
And the both of them are saving up their money...
then they come home from work.
Sittin' by the fire...
radio just played a little classical music for you kids,
the march of the wooden soldiers and you can hear Jack say
Sweet Jane.....Sweet Jane.....Sweet Jane....
Some people like to go out dancing
And other people, (like us) they gotta work
And there's always some evil mothers
they'll tell you life is full of dirt.
And the women never really faint,
and the villans always blink their eyes.
And the children are the only ones who blush.
'Cause life is just to die.
But, anyone who has a heart
wouldn't want to turn around and break it...
and anyone who ever played the part..
he wouldn't want to turn around and fake it...
Sweet Jane....etc...and out

Sympathy For The Devil
Sympathy For The Devil
Please allow me to introduce myself I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year Stole many a man's soul and faith
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you Is the nature of my game
I stuck around St. Petersburg When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the Czar and his ministers Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank Held a general's rank
When the Blitzkrieg raged And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
(woo woo, woo woo)
I watched with glee While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades For the gods they made
(woo woo, woo woo)
I shouted out, "Who killed the Kennedy's?"
When after all It was you and me
(who who, who who)
Let me please introduce myself I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours Who get killed before they reached Bombay
(woo woo, who who)
Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's puzzling you Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby
(who who, who who)
Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's confusing you Is just the nature of my game
(woo woo, who who)
Just as every cop is a criminal And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails Just call me Lucifer 'Cause I'm in need of some restraint
(who who, who who)
So if you meet me Have some courtesy Have some sympathy, have some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse Or I'll lay your soul to waste, mmm yeah
(woo woo, woo woo)
Pleased to meet you Hope you guessed my name, mmm yeah
But what's puzzling you Is the nature of my game, mmm mean it, get down
(woo woo, woo woo)
Tell me baby, what's my name Tell me honey, can ya guess my name
Tell me baby, what's my name I tell you one time, you're to blame
Woo woos x Many

Tears Of The Soldier(MN)
Tears Of The Soldier
Capo 2nd
D(E)G(A) DM7(EM7)
the pain of the soldier
falls on the survivors
the road is long no rest for the drivers
it's a movie playing in your head
look around the sky burns red
[Chorus]
C(D) Am(Bm) G(A)
it was easy to see this coming
but we did it anyway
I know you wanted to see it all
but I'm afraid you just can't stay
where is the sunshine where is the laughter
where is the life that we were all after
what happened to the moments we used to spend together
I can't believe we wasted all that time to get here
C(D) Am(Bm) G(A)
everything was made out out of paper
and it's all ended up in flames
so we all sit around with our heads in our hands
trying to remember our names
how many times must we begin
seems like we start down this road again and again
there are no surprises there's nothing new
and once again the only survivors are me and you.
C(D) Am(Bm) G(A)
There's no on left to tell our story
who wants to hear it any way
It all turned out a glorious mess
and no one saved the day
Em(F#m) Am(Bm) C(B) B7(C#7)
When you find yourself at the barrel's end don't hesitate
Nothing's ever meant to be that's the lie of fate
Darkenss and insecurity Brands us wth fear
My world will never be the same without you here

Verse Em to C. Chorus G Em G Em C C Am D.
Lip stick junkie
Debunked the only one She came back wearing a smile
Look-alike, someone drug me They wanted to unplug me
No one here is on trial It's just a turnaround
And we go, oh Well then we go uh huh oh
Tick tock I want to rock you Like the eighties
Cock blocking isn't allowed
Tugboat Shiela is into memorabilia
Who said three is a crowd We better get it on the go
[Chorus]
Hey now We've got to make it rain somehow
She told me to And showed me what to do
How Maggie makes it in her cloud
I said hey now We've got to make it rain somehow
She told me to And showed me what to do
She knows how to make it loud
[Verse]
Raindance Maggie Advances to the final
Who knew that she had the goods
Little did I know Her body was one
Delicious vinyl To your method the words
I want to lick a little bit
[Chorus]

We've got the wrong girl But not for long girl
It's in the song girl Cause I'll be gone girl
[Chorus]

But not for long girl It's in the song girl
Cause I'll be gone bye bye bye yeah
Bye bye bye girl

The Ballad of David Ogilvy(Original)
The Ballad of David Ogilvy
You have clearly mistaken us for people who give a damn.
If you want our attention then send us a telegram.
How are we supposed to know what you are thinking?
Our mind is like a concrete boat and soon we will be sinking.
Look into our eyes and tell us what you see.
The lights may be flashing but they’re flashing a vacancy.
We’ll make you a promise that you will never have to think.
Just belly up to the bar and we’ll buy you another drink.
You’ll tell us your secrets and your deepest dark passions.
We’ll arrange the financing and serve it up as the latest fashions.
Don’t let us hear you say you’ve missed the main feature.
The mall is your church and the TV is your preacher.
We’ve got we’ve got Swanson’s frozen alibis; we keep them in the freezer.
We don’t count on justice because we find her such a teaser.
Of course we both know that it’s only a formality.
Soon we’ll own the franchise to every locality.
Then you will be our good son loyal and dutiful
And we will be your mothers and you think that we’re so beautiful
Don’t let us hear you say you’ve missed the main feature.
The mall is your church and the TV is your preacher.

The Ballad of John And Yoko
E
Standing in the dock at Southampton, Trying to get to Holland or France.
E7
The man in the mack said, "You've got to go back",
You know they didn't even give us a chance
A E
Christ you know it ain't easy, You know how hard it can be.
B7 E
The way things are going They're gonna crucify me.
Finally made the plane into Paris,Honeymooning down by the Seine.
Peter Brown called to say, "You can make it O.K.,
You can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain".
Christ you know it ain't easy, You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going They're gonna crucify me.
Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton, Talking in our beds for a week.
The newspaper said, "Say what you doing in bed?"
I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace".
Christ you know it ain't easy, You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going They're gonna crucify me.
Saving up your money for a rainy day, Giving all your clothes to charity.
Last night the wife said, "Oh boy, when you're dead
You don't take nothing with you But your soul - think!"
Made a lightning trip to Vienna, eating chocolate cake in a bag.
The newspaper said, "She's gone to his head,
They look just like two gurus in drag".
Christ you know it ain't easy, You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going They're gonna crucify me.
Caught the early plane back to London. Fifty acorns tied in a sack.
The men from the press said, "We wish you success,
It's good to have the both of you back".
Christ you know it ain't easy, You know how hard it can be.
The way things are going They're gonna crucify me.
The way things are going They're gonna crucify me.

Where were you when I needed you
B F#m
What's the lesson in your absent smile
B F#m
have you forgotten the promise that we made
A D B
of course I remember even though it's been a while
heard from your mother she begged me not come
I hoped to find you at the end of the line
There's nothing real that we can count on any more
And the mirror just reminds us that we're running time
[Chorus]
D A
I know we once believed in harmony
D A
we once wrote songs about young love
C G
now every lyric ends with irony
C A
and we've given up on everything above
It's hard to function when we're so full of fear
tell me a story I'll believe the worst
there's no one left for us to trust any more
we can't trust the message if the messenger is cursed
If there's no truth to hear we may as well be deaf
If there's no light It's just as good as being blind
and if the rabble refuse to let us think
we won't run out of money 'cause wer running out of time

Where were you when I needed you

What's the lesson in your absent smile

have you forgotten the promise that we made

The Passenger Am F C G
I am a passenger And I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backside
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, they're bright in a hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
I am a passenger I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's a rip in the sky
And everything looks good tonight
Singin' la la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la la-la
Get into the car We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
See the city's ripped insides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
The sky was made for us tonight
Oh the passenger How how he rides
Oh the passenger He rides and he rides
He looks through his window
What does he see?
He sees the sided hollow sky
He see the stars come out tonight
He sees the city's ripped backsides
He sees the winding ocean drive
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me
'cause it just belongs to you and me
So let's take a ride and see what's mine
Singing...
Oh, the passenger He rides and he rides
He sees things from under glass
He looks through his window's eye
He sees the things he knows are his
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He sees the city asleep at night
He sees the stars are out tonight
And all of it is yours and mine
And all of it is yours and mine
Oh, let's ride and ride and ride and ride...
Singing...

I heard that you got your start in Egypt
In the desert with a whip in your in your hand
Nobody had heard your name before
but you came with a master plan

What brings you around this time
can't you see that everything is closed
nobody shows their face anymore
and we're busy with the fire hose
[refrain]

Dont you have another lie to tell us
G C/B# Am
Don't yo have another soul to corrupt
Dm
Don't you have another lover to betray
G C/B# Am
Don't you have another throat to cut
Fmaj
you won't be happy until we put it all on the line
and have rage and envy in our eyes
you won't leave until there's blood on the ground
and black smoke to fill up our skys
Fmaj
Don't you have somewhere else you could be
perhaps a new Shiloh to destroy
If you're worried that we're not serious anymore
stick around 'cause we're just being coy
[refrain]
Nobody believes a thing anymore
Nobody knows who to trust
well done I supose we're out of our minds
runing around like ants in the dust

Em A D C G
While she sits on her throne everybody waits
Bm C
you wait until the night falls
and shiver beneath the high walls
C D Em
and you suffer until at last she calls
Em A D C G
You can't remember how you lived before
Em A D C G
You're just a shadow plastered on the floor
Bm C
you wait until the night falls
and shiver beneath the high walls
C D Em
and you suffer until at last she calls
Em C G B
There's poison in the air and the night is cold dark
You know it isn't fair but you're drawn by her spark
Em A D C G
how long will you hide your eyes
Em A D C G
and who do you know who will sym pa thize
Bm C
you wait until the night falls
and shiver beneath the high walls
C D Em
and you suffer until at last she calls
Em C G B
and like a wingless caste of ant you march to the final hour
and who in mortal chains and who in power

The Stories of the Street
The Stories of the Street
Am C Em Bm
The stories of the street are mine,The Spanish voices laugh...
Am C Em Bm
The cadillacs go creeping down Through the night and the poison gas
Am F B F# B
And I lean from my window-sill In this old hotel I chose
E A E D Am
With one hand on my suicide And one hand on a rose... hmmm
I know you've heard it's over now And war must surely come
The cities they are broke in half And the middle-men are gone...
But let me ask you one more time Oh Children of the Dust...
These hundreds who are shrieking now, Oh do they speak for us? Hmmm...
And where do all these highways go Now that we are free?
Why are the armies marching still That were coming home to me?
Oh lady, with your legs so fine, Oh stranger at your wheel...
You are locked inside your suffering And your pleasures are the seal... Hmmm...
The Age of Lust is giving birth And both the parents ask
The nurse to tell them fairytales On both sides of the glass...
And now the infant with its cord Is hauled in like a kite...
With one eye filled with blueprints And one eye filled with night... Hmmm...
Oh come with me my little one And we will find that farm
And grow us grass and apples there And keep all the animals warm...
And if by chance I wake at night And I ask you who I am
Oh then take me to the slaughter-house I will wait there with the lamb... Hmmm...
With one hand on a hexagram And one hand on a girl
I balance on a wishing-well That all men call the world...
We are so small between the stars; So large against the sky...
And lost among the subway crowds I try to catch your eye... Hmmm...

The Wind Cries Mary
The Wind Cries Mary
After all the jacks are in their boxes,
and the clowns have all gone to bed,
you can hear happiness staggering on down the street,
footprints dress in red.
And the wind whispers Mary.
A broom is drearily sweeping
up the broken pieces of yesterday's life.
Somewhere a Queen is weeping,
somewhere a King has no wife.
And the wind it cries Mary.
The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed,
The tiny island sags downstream
'Cos the life that they lived is dead.
And the wind screams Mary.
Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown in the past,
And with this crutch, its old age and its wisdom
It whispers, "No, this will be the last."
And The Wind Cries Mary.

They'll Never Know(MN)
They'll Never Know
C Cmaj9
The sadest singer I ever heard
Am F
fell into the port at Amsterdam
C Cmaj9
now he sits on the wire with another bird
Am F
and his sadness falls on the passing tram
C F Fm C
And they'll never know just how much we really miss them
And they'll never know just how much we really cared
In the late hours that quietly slip
and in front of the lovers who fear the dawn
their echos can be heard by the passing ships
and by the lonely drunks passed out on the lawn
And they'll never know how jealous we really are
And they'll never know but we envy them so
[Chorus]
E Am
Its the life we always dreamed of
F Dm
it's the chance we've waited so long
C F
it's the passion raging inside us
Fm C
it's the words of an unwritten song
Dm G
We've waited too long now it's gone
The man who told us what Candy said
also gave us the perfect day
Stands by the jukebox with diamond dog
waiting for Little Johnny Jewell to play
C F Fm C
And they'll never know how they saved us from Morris Albert
And they'll never know just how much kept us sane
[Chorus]

But don't you dare fight back

and the way this story ends

is that no one really wins

and the house takes all your money in the end
And yet we never learn
and we keep coming back
with our hope restored
and our money in a sack
and we play the fool again
as we grow from boys to men
and we never see the devil when he laughs

And the band played on all night
and we drank with all of our might
we lost everything we could
times have never seemed so good

I don't want to talk to you
I don't wan't to hear your voice
You see I've got my phone
and I've made my choice
We were never really friends
It was always just pretend
when they come for me i'll drop the dime on you

Watching the detectives
G C F D
When they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot
Am G
They beat him up until the teardrops start
F C G
But he can't be wounded cos he's got no heart
Long shot of that jumping sign
Visible shivers running down my spine
Cut to baby taking off her clothes
Close up of the sign that says, "We never close"
You snatch a tune, you match a cigarette
She pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet
I don't know how much more of this I can take
She's filing her nails while they're dragging the lake ... (CH)
You think you're alone, until you realize you're in it
Now fear is here to stay, love is here for a visit
They call it instant justice when it's past the legal limit
Someone's scrathing at the door, I wonder who is it?
The detectives come to check if you belong to the parents
Who are ready to hear the worst about their daughter's disappearance
Though it nearly took a miracle to get you to stay
It only took my little fingers to blow you away
C G
Just like watching the detectives,
C
Don't get cute
G
Watching the detectives,
Am G
I get so angry when the teardrops start
F C
But he can't be wounded cos he's got no heart
G C
Watching the detectives,
Watching the detectives

Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair
Better stay away from him

And when I come home, You'll be there waiting for me

When The Little Head Does The Thinkin
when the little head does the thinkin
I'm dirty as a man hole cover
I'm lookin for my long lost lover
She turned me out and now I'm sinkin'
I'm just so easily led when the little head does the thinkin'
I'm talking with a tight red sweater
I'm feelin' like Eddie Vedder
Only twice as cool when she starts winkin'
I'm just so easily led when the little head does the thinkin'
I'm loyal as a dog but I'm a hog for that sexual attraction
It starts up in my mind and makes a bee line below the belt
No consequences just satisfaction
Baby in my heart I'm faithful
This two headed monster is so distasteful
Forgive me when my instincts start stinkin'
I'm just so easily led when the little head does the thinkin'
I'm just so easily led when the little head does the thinkin'
Think about it...
Forgive me if my instincts start stinkin'
I'm just so easily led when the little head does the thinkin'

Whole Wide World
The Whole Wide World
When I was a young boy My mama said to me
There's only one girl in the world for you
And she probably lives in Tahiti
I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world Just to find her
Or maybe she's in the Bahamas Where the Carribean sea is blue
Weeping in a tropical moonlit night Because nobody's told her 'bout you
I'd go the whole wide world I'd go the whole wide world
Just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world I'd go the whole wide world
Find out where they hide her
Why am I hanging around in the rain out here
Trying to pick up a girl
Why are my eyes filling up with these lonely tears
When there're girls all over the world
Is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere
Underneath the tropical sun
Pining away in a heatwave there
Hoping that I won't be long
I should be lying on that sun-soaked beach with her
Caressing her warm brown skin
And then in a year or maybe not quite
We'll be sharing the same next of kin
I'd go the whole wide world I'd go the whole wide world
Just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world I'd go the whole wide world
Find out where they hide he

Wicked Game
Wicked Game
Bm A E
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
I never dreamed I'd love somebody like you
I don't want to fall in love
No I don't want to fall in love with you
What a wicked game to play To make me feel this way
What wicked thing to do To let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say You never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do To make me dream of you
And I don't want to fall in love
No I don't want to fall in love with you
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No I don't want to fall in love
No I don't want to fall in love with you
This world is only gonna break your heart

Working Class Hero
Working Class Hero
Am G Am
As soon as you're born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
When they've tortured and scared you for twenty hard years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
There's room at the top they are telling you still
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
If you want to be like the folks on the hill
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
If you want to be a hero well just follow me

You Can't Always Get What You Want
You can't always get what you want
I saw her today at the reception A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was gonna meet her connection At her feet was a footloose man
[Chorus]
You can't always get what you want You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want But if you try sometimes well you might find
You get what you need
And I went down to the demonstration To get my fair share of abuse
Singing, "We're gonna vent our frustration If we don't we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse"
[Chorus]
I went down to the Chelsea drugstore To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was "dead"
[Chorus]
I saw her today at the reception In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception Well I could tell by her blood-stained hands

You Can't Take Love for Granted Lyrics
You Can't Take Love for Granted Lyrics
Intro am gm (twice)
Verse
Dm Am Gm Am
Took her to a party and danced with the host
Took her to a restaurant and treat her like a ghost
Took her to a movie and looked at another screen
Paid for entertainment she'd already seen
Bridge
Bm G D A
I get so hungry, I'm eating my heart out
Bm G D A
Oooh I felt it go empty I'm wondering what I can be thinking about
Chorus 1
Dm Am Gm Am
But you can't take love for granted, underneath another skin
Dm Am Gm Am
Can't take love for granted, up behind another grin
Demonstrated passion in a grip hard to shake
Took up every fashion till everything went fake
Pulled a coat over her shoulder, cracked a joke over and over
Watch the rain turn the night colder, stared into the headlight beam
Bridge
I get so wired I'm making all the wrong connections
And I get so tired I'm picking up bad affections
Repeat chorus 1
Chorus 2
Can't take love for granted, can't take love for granted,
Can't take love for granted, can't take love for granted,
Instrumental section on bridge chords, then intro repeat
Watch the swans out on the lake, circle circle circle (circle circle)
Talk and talk and talk around it (circle circle)
Repeat chorus 1 then chorus 2 then chorus 1 twice (fade) /pre>

You Know I'm No Good
YOU KNOW I'M NO GOOD
Intro Drum And Bass
Dm Gm A7 Dm
Meet you downstairs in the bar, and hurt, My rolled up sleeves and My skull t-shirt.
Dm Gm A7 Dm
I say why did you do it with him today? And sniff you out like you were Tanqueray.
Gm E7
'Cos I'm your fella, your guy; Hand you my Stella and fly.
F E7 A7
By the time you're out the door, I tear you down like Roger Moore.
[Chorus]
Dm Am E7 Am
You cheated yourself, like you knew you would.
Dm Am E7 Am
You told me, you were trouble; I know that you're no good.
Break: Drum Only
Dm Gm A7 Dm
Upstairs in bed with your ex boy; He's in the place, but you can't get joy.
Dm Gm A7 Dm
Thinking of me in the final throws; This is when your buzzer goes.
Gm E7
Run out to meet me chips and pitta, I say when we're married, 'cos I'm not bitter.
F E7 A7
There'll be none of him no more; you cried for me on the kitchen floor.
[Chorus]
Break: Drum and Guitar Dm Am E7 Am (x2)
Dm Gm A7 Dm
Sweet reunion, Ja-maica and Spain; We're like how we were again.
Dm Gm A7 Dm
you're in the tub; I'm on the seat, Lick my lips, as you soap your feet.
Gm E7
Then I notice a little carpet burn; your stomach drops yeah and your guts churn.
F E7 A7
I shrug, and it's the worst, Who truly stuck the knife in first.
[Chorus][Chorus]
Outro: Drum and Guitar and bass Dm Am E7 Am (x4)

You May Already Be A Winner
You may already be a winner
D E7
Dry your eyes pretty girl
G D
I just got news from the outside world
E7
I don't know how they got our names
G D
But yesterday this letter came:
F# G D
Mr. and Mrs. resident dweller, your lucky number is
A D
You may already be a winner
I've suspected this for years
Still in all it's good to hear
They're pulling for us in the post
To you my dear, I raise this toast
A house of our dreams, an El Dorado, a ten-speed blender
You may already be a winner
F# E
Now I've never counted my chickens before they're hatched
G
And I know there is always a catch
E
But I've felt from the start that our hearts were the
A
perfect match
I know you're tired of the same old dress
I know the car's been repossessed
I know this house is just a shack
But there's this love we cant hold back
Would you like a beer with your tv dinner?
Oh, my darling, you may already be a winner (Repeat end)
E G D A D (outro)

I wouldn't mind if I knew what I was missing.
Though the days are few they're filled with tears,
and since I lost you it feels like years.
Yes, it seems so long, girl since you've been g one,
and I just can't go on if you won't see me.
You won't see me.

Ziggy Stardust
Ziggy Stardust
G Bm C (w/riff 1) D
Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Weird and Gilly The spiders from Mars
G Em
He played it left hand But made it too far
A C/G
Became the special man, then we were Ziggy's band
Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo
Like some cat from Japan, he could lick 'em by smiling
He could leave 'em to hang
Came on so loaded man, well hung and snow white tan.
chorus
Am G F G
So where were the spiders while the fly tried to break our balls
Just the beer light to guide us,
D/A E/B
So we bitched about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands?
Ziggy played for time, jiving us that we were voodoo
The kids were just crass, he was the nazz
With God given ass
He took it all too far but boy could he play guitar
Making love with his ego Ziggy sucked up into his mind
Like a leper messiah
When the kids had killed the man I had to break up the band.
Oh yeah
Ooooooo
C G
Ziggy played guitaarrrrrr

Zoot Suit Riot
Am E
Who's that whisperin' in the trees? It's two sailors and they're on leave
Am E Am
Pipes and chains and swingin' hands Who's your daddy? Yes I am
Dm Am
Fat cat came to play Now he can't run fast enough
Dm E
You'd best stay away When the pushers come to shove
[Chorus]
Am E
Zoot suit riot throw back a bottle of beer
Am E Am
Zoot suit riot Pull a comb through your coal black hair
Am E
Zoot suit riot throw back a bottle of beer
Am E Am
Zoot suit riot Pull a comb through your coal black hair
Blow Daddy!
A whipped up jitterbuggin' brown eyed man A stray cat frontin' up an eight-piece band
Cut me Sammy and you'll understand In my veins hot music ran
You got me in a sway and I want to swing you done
Now you sailors know Where your women come for love
[Chorus]
Am Dm Am E Am E Am
You're in a Zoot suit riot
You're in a Zoot suit riot
You're in a Zoot suit riot
(random gibberish)
Oh you got me in a sway and I want to swing you dove
Now you sailors know Where your women come for love
[Chorus]
You're in a Zoot suit riot
You're in a Zoot suit riot
You're in a Zoot suit riot
