Verse Chords
I know you're going but I can't believe
It's the way that you're leaving
It's like we never knew each other at all
it may be my fault.
I gave you too many reasons being alone when I didn't want to.
I thought you'd always be there
I almost believed you.
All this time I still remember everything you said
There's so much you promised
how could I ever forget?
Listen- you know I love you but I just can't take this
. . .

VERSE I
Em
I hold on so nervously
Bm
To me and my drink
I wish it was cooling me
Em
But so far, has not been good
Bm
It's been shitty
And I feel awkward, as I should
Em
This club has got to be
Bm
The most pretentious thing
Since I thought you and me
Em
Well I am imagining
A
A dark lit place
G
Or your place or my place
CHORUS
Em
Well I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
A G
I want to make you move
G
Because you're standing still
Em
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
A
You'll probably move right through
G Em
Me on my way to you
VERSE (same with 1st verse)
I hold out for one more drink
Before I think
I'm looking too desperately
But so far has not been fun
I should just stay home
If one thing really means one
This club will hopefully
Be closed in three weeks
That would be cool with me
Well I'm still imagining
A dark lit place
Or your place or my place
CHORUS
Well, I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
We'll, I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you

[Verse 1] Em C D G
Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leavin' my life in your hands
People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Risking it all in a glance
And how you got me blind is still a mystery
I can't get you out of my head
Don't care what is written in your history
As long as you're here with me
[Chorus 1] C G Em D
I don't care who you are
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me
Who you are
Where you're from
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me
[Verse 2]
Every little thing that you have said and done
Feels like it's deep within me
Doesn't really matter if you're on the run
It seems like we're meant to be
[Chorus]

I've tried to hide it so that no one knows

Breath of relief

Seldom praise Him for the sunny days
F
And like His promise is true
C
Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew
D#
To bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies
A#
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries
F
My only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope
C
With such an endurin' pain
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain

Who's to blame for tootin' 'caine into your own vein?
A#
What a shame you shoot and aim for someone else's brain
F
You claim the insane and name this day in time
C
For fallin' prey to crime
I say the system got you victim to your own mind
D#
Dreams are hopeless aspirations
A#
In hopes of comin' true believe in yourself the rest is up to me and you

Don't go chasing waterfalls

Intro
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts.
Em C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I love the way you lie,
(slide on D string)
I love the way you lie
Verse
Em
I can't tell you what it really is, I can only tell you what it feels like
C
And right now, there's a steel knife in my windpipe
G
I can't breathe, but I still fight while I can fight
Dadd11
As long as the wrong feels right, it's like I'm in flight
Em
High off of love, drunk from my hate,
C
it's like I'm huffin' paint and I love it, the more I suffer, I suffocate
G
And right before I'm about to drown, she resuscitates
Dadd11
Me, she fuckin' hates me, and I love it, Wait!
Em
Where you going? I'm leaving you. No you ain't,
C G
Come back. We're running right back, here we go again, it's so insane
Cuz when it's going good, it's going great
Dadd11
I'm Superman with the wind at his back, she's Lois Lane
Em
But when and it's bad, it's awful, I feel so ashamed,
C
I snap Who's that dude?, I don't even know his name
G
I laid hands on her, I'll never stoop so low again
Dadd11 (abrupt stop)
I guess I don't know my own strength
Chorus
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts.
Em C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I love the way you lie,
Em C
I love the way you lie
G Dadd11 (abrupt stop)
I love the way you lie
Verse 2
Em
You ever love somebody so much, you can barely breathe when you with 'em?
C
You meet, and neither one of you even know it hit 'em
G
Got that warm fuzzy feeling, yeah them chills used to get 'em
Dadd11
Now you gettin' fuckin' sick of lookin' at 'em
Em
You swore you'd never hit 'em, never do nothin' to hurt 'em
C
Now you're in each other's face spewing venom in your words when you spit 'em
G
You push, pull each other's hair, scratch, claw, bit 'em
Dadd11
Throw 'em down, pin 'em, so lost in the moments when you're in 'em
Em
It's the face that's the culprit, controls you both
C
So they say, you'd best to go your separate ways
G
Guess that they don't know ya cuz today, that was yesterday,
Dadd11
Yesterday is over and it's a different day,
Em
Sound like broken records playing over but you promised her,
C
next time you'd show restraint, you don't get another chance
G
Life is no nintendo game, but you lied again
Now you get to watch her leave out the window
Dadd11
Guess that's why they call it window pane
Chorus
Em C
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts.
Em C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I love the way you lie,
Em C
I love the way you lie
G Dadd11 (abrupt stop)
I love the way you lie
Verse 3
Em
Now I know we said things, did things that we didn't mean
C
And we fall back into the same patterns, same routine
G
But your temper's just as bad as mine is; you're the same as me
Dadd11
When it comes to love you're just as blinded
Em
Baby please come back, it wasn't you. Baby it was me,
C
Maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems
G
Maybe that's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano
Dadd11
All I know is I love you too much, to walk away though
Em
Come inside, pick up your bags off the sidewalk
C
Don't you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk?
G
Told you this is my fault, look me in the eyeball
Dadd11
Next time I'm pissed, I'll aim my fist at the drywall
Em
Next time? There won't be no next time
C
I apologize, even though I know it's lies
G
I'm tired of the games, I just want her back. I know I'm a liar,
Dadd11 (abrupt stop)
If she ever tries to fuckin' leave again,
Ima tie her to the bed and set this house on fire
Just gonna
Chorus
Em C
Stand there and watch me burn,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts.
Em C
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
G Dadd11
But that's alright because I love the way you lie,

I hear the city never sleeps it just keeps rolling on through
So on to Gotham City on a super jet plane I flew
Verse 2
Anticipation and uncertainty, try to get the best of me
This challenge I'm about to face is laced with millions just like me
Who travel from the ends of end to get to where I want to be
Putting all they've got onto one hot shot to prove themselves relentlessly
Pre-chorus-
Rewind, cause I can't focus on these trivial things
Gotta keep my mind in motion, take whatever it brings
Chorus-
Here I am in NYC, the capitol of the world
Far from my hometown Houston, far for this Texas girl
Here I am in Empire City
I'm on top of the world
New York, New York
New York
Verse 3-
Sure ain't pleasant Texas, no friendly passer-bys
Just stressed out suits stressing 'bout their push and go lives
No driving slow on Sunday Mornings or watching clouds go by
Just busy streets with crazy cabbies fighting over traffic lights
Verse 4-
You'd think a Texas Tornado was on a path of destruction
The way the public scurries home after the daily grind function
Some ease the tension with a PBR, the cheapest they make
Some drop mad cash on a bottle now that's extravagant taste

May never find a love, love, love a love like this,
that still make me think about my middle school kiss.
I sit here in this chair and I wish
for you not to leave me now.
My friends they always told me
not to make you my wife,
man they was putting you down.
And now they see we rolling,
me and you, we strolling,
they don't wanna come around.

Let me hear you say,

Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords
I saw a film today oh boy / The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away / But I just had to look
Having read the book....

G Bm G

D G Em A7 D
She can wait if she wants, she's ahead of her time.
Dm G7 C Am
Ohhh... and she never gives out,
Bb E E7 A
and she never gives in, she just changes her mind.
2) She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you.
She can ask for the truth, but she'll never believe.
And she'll take what you give her as long it's free.
She steals like a thief, but she's always a woman to me.
CHORUS
3) And she'll promise you more than the garden of Eden.
Then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleeding.
But she brings out the best and the worst you can be.
Blame it all on yourself 'cause she's always a women to me.
CHORUS
4) She's frequently kind and she's suddenly cruel.
She can do as she pleases, she's nobody's fool.
But she can't be convicted, she's earned her degree.
And the most she will do is throw shadows at you,
but she's always a woman to me.

It starts with one thing I don't know why
B
It doesn't even matter how hard you try

Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme

All I know, time is a valuable thing

Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings

Watch it count down to the end of the day

The clock ticks life away

Watch the time go right out the window

Trying to hold on, but didn't even know

What it meant to me will eventually be

A memory of a time when

Acting like I was part of your property

Remembering all the times you fought with me

Things aren't the way they were before

You wouldn't even recognize me anymore

Not that you knew me back then but it all comes back to me

In the end you kept everything inside

And even though I tried, it all fell apart

What it meant to me will eventually be

A memory of a time when

Have some courtesy

Have some sympathy, and some taste

Use all your well-learned politesse

LYRICS
**********
Call up, ring once, hang up the phone
To let me know you made it home
Don't want nothing to be wrong with part-time lover
If she's with me I'll blink the lights
To let you know tonight's the night
For me and you my part-time lover
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
If I'm with friends and we should meet
Just pass me by, don't even speak
Know the word's discreet when part-time lovers
But if there's some emergency
Have a male friend to ask for me
So then she won't peek its really you my part-time lover
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
I've got something that I must tell
Last night someone rang our doorbell
And it was not you my part-time lover
And then a man called our exchange
But didn't want to leave his name
I guess that two can play the game
Of part-time lovers
You and me, part-time lovers
But, she and he, part-time lovers

You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug

Nothing's gonna hurt you the way that words do

And they settle ‘neath your skin

Kept on the inside and no sunlight

Sometimes a shadow wins

But I wonder what would happen if you

Say what you wanna say

The wound heals but it never does
G#
That's cause you're at war with love
D#
You're at war with love, yeah
These battle scars, don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle
Never let a wound ruin me
But I feel like ruin's wooing me
Arrow holes that never close from cupid on a shooting spree
Feeling stupid cause I know it ain't no you and me
But when you're trying to beat the odds up
Been trying to keep your nods up and you know that you should know
And let her go but the fear of the unknown
Holding another lover strong sends you back into the zone
With no Tom Hanks to bring you home
A lover not a fighter on the frontline with a poem
Trying to write yourself a rifle
Maybe sharpen up a song
To fight the tanks and drones of you being alone
I wish I never looked, I wish I never touched
I wish that I could stop loving you so much
Cause I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren't the best, the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it'll never be over, until you tell me it's over
These battle scars, don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle
(And just leave then)
You shouldn't have but you said it
(And I hope you never come back)
It shouldn't have happened but you let it
Now you're down on the ground screaming medic
The only thing that comes is the post-traumatic stresses
Shields, body armors and vests
Don't properly work, that's why you're in a locker full of hurt
The enemy within and all the fires from your friends
The best medicine is to probably just let her win
I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
And I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren't the best, the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it'll never be over, until you tell me it's over
These battle scars, don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle
I wish I couldn't feel, I wish I couldn't love
I wish that I could stop cause it hurts so much
And I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren't the best, the best I ever had
I wish that the good outweighed the bad
Cause it'll never be over, until you tell me it's over
Cause you've set me on fire
I've never felt so alive, yeah
Hoping wounds heal, but it never does
That's because you're at war with love
And I'm at the point of breaking
And it's impossible to shake it
See, you hoped the wound heals, but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love
Hope it heals, but it never does
That's cause you're at war with love!
These battle scars, don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change
These battle
These battle scars, don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't never gonna change

I wanna know how forever feels
Hey, I wanna know how forever feels
Girl, I wanna know how forever feels
A E Bm D
Baby please, please, please believe me
I don't want you to go, I'm feeling you way more than you know
Cause you, you, you intrigue me
Something I gotta say, without pushing you away
So how do I express, my life is such a mess
If only you knew, if only I could confess
to you, you stole my heart, so why is this so hard
You caught me off-guard, my love is who you are, baby you still are
Tell me why when I tell you how I feel inside,
I feel like I'm doing something wrong
Maybe it's cause of where you are, so near but yet so very far
So come back to where you belong
We've all made mistakes but live and learn just take
Your turn baby return to me
Wasting time with you is all that I want to
I'm dropping all these clues, why can't you see?
That you belong with me
Splashing right through the sea of love
End of story
I, I, I, I wish you would
Think of what you've done is this what you really want
Cause she she she she is no good, not good enough for you
Look at what she's already put you through
Tell me what love really is does it even exist
After the months we've missed, you're still first on my list
I know that this could work, I know we both deserve
I love you more than her, our love is for ever, baby forever
I know you say you need a break so here I will patiently wait
till the day that you come home
Cause I can see us happily, I'll give you all the time you need
I'll give you anything you want
We are both in love so much sometimes it hurts,
I know you feel the way I do
So I will give you time baby, I will let this ride
Cause soon I know you'll realize
That you belong with me
Splashing right through the sea of love
End of story
Intro A E F#m E D x2
Verse
A
Remember all the things we wanted
E
Now all our memories, they're haunted
F#m D
We were always meant to say goodbye
A
Even with our fists held high
E
It never would've worked out right
F#m D
We were never meant for do or die
Bm
I didn't want us to burn out
D
I didn't come here to hold you
Now I can't stop
Chorus
A E F#m E D
I want you to know that it doesn't matter where we take this road
E
Someone's gotta go
A E F#m
I want you to know you couldn't have loved me better
E D
But I want you to move on
E
So I'm already gone
Verse 2(same as verse 1)
Looking at you makes it harder
But I know that you'll find another
that doesn't always make you want to cry
Started with a perfect kiss then
we could feel the poison set in
Perfect couldn't keep this love alive
Bm
You know that I love you so I
D
love you enough
to let you go
Chorus 2

Something to get off my chest
Bm
My life gets kind of boring

Need something that i can confess
Till all my sleeves are stained red
From all the truth that I've said
Come by it honestly I swear
Thought you saw me wink, no, I've been on the brink, so

Tell me what you want to hear

Something that were like those years
Bm
I'm sick of all the insincere

This time
Don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm Gonna give all my secrets away
My God, amazing how we got this far
It's like were chasing all those stars
Who's driving shiny big black cars
And everyday I see the news
All the problems we could solve
And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
?Singing straight to cold?
I don't really like my flow, no, so
[CHORUS]
Got no reason
Got no shame
Got no family
I can blame
Just don't let me disappear
I'ma tell you everything
[CHORUS x2]
All my secrets away (x2)
