-A Lifetime Ago
A Lifetime Ago
D
ain't no blue skys anymore
ain't no mamas waiting by the kitchen door
A
no more stairing at the sky letting time roll by
D
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
D
There's no famlies anymore
Everything that once was good is rotton to the core
A
No more sundays at the park it's not safe here after dark
D
have we forgotten what life is for
F# G
It was only a lifetime ago
D A A7 D
in 20 years will anybody know anybody know why
G D
I don't think we ever agreed
G D
And no one asked us if we cared

But I'm pretty sure it wasn't fair

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

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]

[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

-Brave New World
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.

in a tower of glass behind plank of oak

he pours himself a drink and loosens his tie

Early Days

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

It really seems absurd to posess a mind

as long as we have gods and kings to keep our hearts in line

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

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

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

Oh dark evening time is waning It's the twilight stop complaining

We have fallen from the sky without a clue or reason why

once we find out we have won

-I Think By Myself
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 have taken a coward's heart into the darkest night

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

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

I watch some TV and think about how I feel

I can't sleep 'cause I wan't something more
(I don't Know) (just stare at the floor)
but I don't know what to do I just stare at the floor
[Chorus]
I look at my watch I've stayed up too late
Some would call it bad luck others might call it fate
D A
What happened to my life How'd it get like this
Where did I go wrong I'm getting so fucking pissed
I'm Mr. Average and I'm quitting my job
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
[Chorus]
I look at my watch Hope I'm not too late
Just an average man Please don't mistake me for great
I look at my life Hope it's not too late
To turn my life around I want to be something great

-No Rest
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

You have clearly mistaken us for people who give a damn.

If you want our attention then send us a telegram.

F# D F# E F# E
The lights may be flashing but they're flashing a vacancy.
Just belly up to the bar and we'll buy you another drink.
We'll make you a promise that you will never have to think.
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 lady justice 'cause we find her such a teaser.
Of course you and I both know that it's only a formality.
and 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.

man who should be dead had ticked her off
i turned around to pour myself a drink
she was gone i had not time to blink

all the corpses still look good
i think i'll take another case
a cheating husband with a pretty face

Tilt back your head and take a gulp
C Am
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 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

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

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

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

now he sits on the wire with another bird

and his sadness falls on the passing tram

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

And they'll never know just how much kept us sane

you'd be wise to run away

But don't you dare fight back

and the way this story ends

is that no one really wins
F D
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

Intro
Dm Am G x2 G
F
He turned back to see that
Dm
She looked through the window
Am G
For a moment the whole world stood still
Jump back a moment his slow heavy breathing
The slow burn and cigarette kill
[Chorus]
C F
And now their time is done
Dm Am G
And his heart starts to wander
C F
He fights the urge to run
Dm Am G
He can't face her any longer
Short Intro
His last cigarette tastes of lies and regret
But the burn and the smoke fit the mood
His feet are resisting he picks up the pace
It's asertive without being rude
[Chorus]
A chance to introspect
And his mind starts to wander
And his soul is a shattered wreck
He can't face it any longer
[Bridge]
Dm Am G C
A chance to look inside then shudder and cry
G C
Why does he even bother
Dm Am G C
But there's no place to hide when you soul starts to die

No bargains no offers

And now their time is done
And his mind starts to wander
He fights the urge to run
He can't face her for much longer

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

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."

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'?

well it goes like this
C D Em C D
the fourth the fifth the minor fall and the major lift
D Bm Em
the baffled king composing Hallelujah
C Em C G D G
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

I, I will be king And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can beat them, just for one day We can be heroes, just for one day
And you, you can be mean And I, I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers, and that is a fact Yes we're lovers, and that is that
Though nothing, will keep us together We could steal time, just for one day
We can be heroes, for ever and ever What d'you say?
I, I wish you could swim Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together We can beat them, for ever and ever
Oh we can be heroes, just for one day
I, I won't be king And you, you won't be queen
Though nothing will drive them away We can be heroes, just for one day
We can be us, just for one day
I, I can remember (I remember) Standing, by the wall (by the wall)
And the guns, shot above our heads (over our heads)
And we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)
And the shame, was on the other side Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever
Then we could be heroes, just for one day
We can be heroes We can be heroes
We can be heroes Just for one day
We can be heroes
We're nothing, and nothing will help us
Maybe we're lying, then you better not stay
But we could be safer, just for one day

There's no fun in what I do if she's not there
I wonder what went wrong
I've waited far too long
I think I'll take a walk and look for her
[Chorus]
G
Though tonight she's made me sad
Em Am C D
I still love her
G
If I find her I'll be glad
Em Am C D
I still love her
I don't want to spoil the party so I'll go
I would hate my disappointment to show
There's nothing for me here
So I will disappear
If she turns up while I'm gone,
please let me know
[Instrumental][Chorus]
I've had a drink or two and I don't care
There's no fun in what I do if she's not there
I wonder what went wrong
I've waited far too long
I think I'll take a walk and look for her

I Saw The Light
I saw the light
Intro: [Dm7] [G] [Dm7] [G]
It was [Dm7]late last [G]night, I was [Dm7]feeling something wasn't [G]right,
There was [Dm7]not another soul in [G]sight, Only [Cmaj7]you, only you[Em]
So we [Dm7]walked [G]along, Though I [Dm7]knew that there was something [G]wrong,
and a [Dm7]feeling hit me, oh, so [G]strong About [Cmaj7]you [C7]
[Chorus]
Then you [Fmaj7]gazed up at [Em7]me And the [Am]answer was plain to [D7]see,
Cause I [Dm7]saw the [G]light In your [Cmaj7]eyes [Dm7]
In your [Cmaj7]eyes [Dm7]
Though we [Dm7]had our [G]fling, I just [Dm7]never would suspect a [G]thing
Till that [Dm7]little bell began to [G]ring In my [Cmaj7]head, in my [Em]head
But I [Dm7]tried to [G]run, Though I [Dm7]knew it wouldn't help me[G]none,
[Dm7]cause I couldn't ever [G]love no one, or so I [Cmaj7]said [C7]
[Chorus]
Guitar solo over verse chords:
[Dm7] [G] [Dm7] [G] [Dm7] [G] [C] [Em]
But I [Dm7]love you [G]best, It's not [Dm7]something that I say in [G]jest,
Cause you're [Dm7]different, girl, from all the [G]rest
In my [Cmaj7]eyes[C7]
And I [Fmaj7]ran out [Em7]before, But I [Am]won't do it any[D7]more
Can't you [Dm7]see the [G]light In my [Cmaj7]eyes [Dm7] 4X End on Cmaj

I'm waiting for my man Got 26 dollars in my hand
E G# A
Up to lexington 125 Feelin' sick and dirty
F#
More Dead Than Alive
(E A vamp)
Huh, I'm waiting for my man
Hey white boy, what you doin' uptown
Hey white boy, you chasin' my women around
Pardon me sir, it's furthest from my mind
I'm just waitin' for a dear-dear friend of mine
I'm waiting for my man, come on
Here he comes, he's all dressed in black
Pr shoes and a big straw hat
He's never early, he's always late
First thing you learn is that you always gotta wait
I'm waiting for my man
Up to a brownstone, up three flights of stairs
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
I'm waiting for my man
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
Until tomorrow, but that's just some other time
I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man
Man-man-man-man-man-man-man

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

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]

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
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?

Mother's Little Helper
Mother's Little Helper
Am C D Em
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

One of these early mornings, oh, you gonna be wiping your weeping eyes.

Now you come around signifying a woman, you don't wanna let me ride.
Mustang Sally, think you better slow your mustang down.
You been running all over the town now.

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

Spooky
Spooky
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
Spooky

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

Watching The Detectives
Watching The Detectives
Am
Nice girls, not one with a defect
F
Cellophane shrink wrap, so correct
Am F
Red dogs under illegal legs
Am F
She looks so good that he gets down and begs
CH:
C
She is watching the detectives
G
"Ooh, he's so cute"
C
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
Am F

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'

Whiter Shade Of Pale
Whiter Shade Of Pale
[Intro] C-> Am Em F Am Dm F G-> Em G7 C F G
C-> Am Em
We skipped the light fandango
F Am Dm F
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
G-> Em G7
I was feeling kinda seasick
C-> Am Em
But the crowd called out for more
F Am Dm F
The room was humming harder
G-> Em G7
As the ceiling flew away
C-> Am Em
When we called out for another drink
F Am Dm G
The waiter brought a tray.
C-> Am Em F Am Dm F
And so it was that later As the miller told his tale
G-> Em G7 C F C G7
That her face, at first just ghostly, Turned a whiter shade of pale.
[Intro] C-> Am Em F Am Dm F G-> Em G7 C F G
C-> Am Em
She said, There is no reason
F Am Dm F
And the truth is plain to see.
G-> Em G7
But I wandered through my playing cards
C-> Am Em
And would not let her be
F Am Dm F
One of sixteen vestal virgins
G-> Em G7
Who were leaving for the coast
C-> Am Em
And although my eyes were open
F Am Dm G
They might have just as well been closed.
C-> Am Em F Am Dm F
And so it was that later As the miller told his tale
G-> Em G7 C F C G7
That her face, at first just ghostly, Turned a whiter shade of pale.

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

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
[Chorus]

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.

I say why did you do it with him today? And sniff you out like you were Tanqueray.

'Cos I'm your fella, your guy; Hand you my Stella and fly.

Thinking of me in the final throws; This is when your buzzer goes.

Run out to meet me chips and pitta, I say when we're married, 'cos I'm not bitter.

There'll be none of him no more; you cried for me on the kitchen floor.

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.

Then I notice a little carpet burn; your stomach drops yeah and your guts churn.

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)
