Oooh oooh, ooooh yeah, mmmm...
Love can be a many splendored thing
Can't deny the joy it brings
A dozen roses, diamond rings
Dreams for sale and fairy tales
It'll make you hear a symphony
And you just want the world to see
But like a drug that makes you blind,
It'll fool ya every time
The trouble with love is
It can tear you up inside
Make your heart believe a lie
It's stronger than your pride
The trouble with love is
It doesn't care how fast you fall
And you can't refuse the call
See, you got no say at all
Now I was once a fool, it's true
I played the game by all the rules
But now my world's a deeper blue
I'm sadder, but I'm wiser too
I swore I'd never love again
I swore my heart would never mend
Said love wasn't worth the pain
But then I hear it call my name
(The trouble with) The trouble with love is
It can tear you up inside
Make your heart believe a lie
It's stronger than your pride
The trouble with love is
It doesn't care how fast you fall
And you can't refuse the call
See, you got no say at all
Every time I turn around
I think I've got it all figured out
My heart keeps callin' and I keep on fallin'
Over and over again
The sad story always ends the same
Me standin' in the pourin' rain
It seems no matter what I do
It tears my heart in two
(The trouble with love is) The trouble with love, yeah
(It can tear you up inside) It can tear you up inside
(Make your heart believe a lie) Make your heart believe a lie
It's stronger than your pride
(The trouble with love is)
It's in your heart
It's in your soul (doesn't care how fast you fall)
You won't get no control
(and you can't refuse the call)
See, you got no say at all
(The trouble with love is) Oh, yeah
(It can tear you up inside)
(Make your heart believe a lie)
Bm, C#m, D
Throught Out Song. Its Simple.Just get the timing down and its all good.
[Verse 1-]
Bm
I might be too strung out on compliments
C#m
Overdosed on confidence
D
Started not to give a fuck and stop fearing the consequence
Bm
Drinking every night because we drink to my accomplishments
Faded way too long I'm floating in and out of consciousness
And they sayin' I'm back, I'd agree with that
I just take my time with all this shit, I still believe in that
I had someone tell me I fell off, ohh I needed that
And they wanna see me pick back up, well where'd I leave it at
I know I exaggerated things, now I got it like that
Tuck my napkin in my shirt, cause I'm just mobbin' like that
You know good and well that you don't want a problem like that
You gone make someone around me catch a body like that
No don't do it, please don't do it, cause one of us goes in
And we all go through it
So Drizzy got the money, so Drizzy gone pay it
Those my brothers
[Chorus-]
I ain't even gotta say it
That's just something they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah they know yeah
That the real is on the rise
Fuck them other guys
I even gave them a chance to decide
Now its something they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah I be yelling out money over everything, money on my mind.
Then she wanna ask when it got so empty
Tell her I apologize it happened over time
[Verse 2-]
She says they missed the old drake, girl don't tempt me
If they don't get it, they'll be over you
That new shit that you got is overdue
You better do what you suppose to do
I'm like why I gotta be all that but still I can't deny the fact that it's true
Listen to you expressing all them feelings
Soap opera rappers all these s sound like all my children
And that's who you thinking is 'bout to come and make a killing
I guess it really is just me, myself and all my millions.
You know the game even got it like that.
You gone hype me up and make me catch a body like that
Cause I live for this it isn't just a hobby like that.
When they get my shit and play it
[Chorus]
I ain't even gotta say it
That's just something they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
They know, they know, they know
Yeah they know yeah
That the real is on the rise
Fuck them other guys
I even gave them a chance to decide
Now its something they know
They know, they know, they know
I be yelling out money over everything, money on my mind.
Tell em' I apologize it happened over time

Sometimes its all a big surprise

'Cause there was a time when all I did was wish

Youd tell me this was love

Its not the way I hoped or how I planned

We were sittin' up there on your momma's roof
Talkin' 'bout everything under the moon

With the smell of honeysuckle and your perfume
All I could think about was my next move
D#
Oh, but you were so shy, so was I
C#
Maybe that's why it was so hard to believe

When you smiled and said to me
N.C. G# C# D#
Are you gonna kiss me or not?

Are we gonna do this or what?

It was the best dang kiss that I ever had
Except for that long one after that
C#
And I knew if I wanted this thing to last
D#
Sooner or later I'd have to ask for your hand
So I took a chance
C#
Bought a wedding band and I got down on one knee
D#
And you smiled and said to me
N.C. G# C# D#
Are you gonna kiss me or not?

Are we gonna do this or what?

Are you gonna kiss me or not?
[Verse]

So, we planned it all out for the middle of June
From the wedding cake to the honeymoon
G#
And your momma cried
When you walked down the aisle
C#
When the preacher man said, Say I do
A#M
I did and you did too, then I lifted that veil
D# (LET IT RING OUT)
And saw your pretty smile and I said
N.C. G# C# D#
Are you gonna kiss me or not?
[Chorus]
D# G# C# D#
Are we gonna do this or what?

Look at all the love that we got

It ain't never gonna stop

Are you gonna kiss me or not?

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

Verse 1: G | Em | C D | G
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No, I won't be afraid
Oh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
RAP
[Chorus]
So darlin', darlin', stand by me / Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand / Stand by me, stand by me
RAP
[Verse 2]
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
RAP
[Chorus]
So darlin', darlin', stand by me / Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand / Stand by me, stand by me
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Woah, just stand now
Oh, stand, stand by me

Now and forever, I will be your man.
Sometimes I just hold you Too caught up in me to see,
I'm holding a fortune that heaven has given to me,
I'll try to show you each and every way I can,
Now and forever, I will be your man.

Then we would cook cornmeal porridge, I say
Of which I'll share with you (yeah)
My feet is my only carriage
And so I've got to push on through,
Oh, while I'm gone
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
I say little darlin'
Don't shed no tears
No woman no cry

Intro
C G Am F x2
C G
I walked to the door with you, the air was cold
Am F
But something about it felt like home somehow, and I,
C G
Left my scarf there at your sisters house
Am F-once
And you still got it, in your drawer, even now
C G Am F
C G
Oh your sweet dispositon and my wide eyed gaze
Am F
We're singing in the car getting lost upstate
C G
The autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place
Am F
And I can picture it after all these days
C G
And I know it's long gone and, and magics not here no more
Am G F G Am G
And I might be okay but I'm not fine at all
C G
Cause there we are again on that little town street
Am F
You almost ran the red cause you were lookin' over at me
C G Am F
Wind in my hair, I was there, I remember it all too well
C G
Photo album on the counter your cheeks were turing red
Am F
You used to be a little kid with glasses in a twin size bed
C G
And your mothers telling stories 'bout you on a t-ball team
Am F
You tell me about your past thinkin' your future was me
C G
And I know it's long gone and it was nothing else I could do
Am G F G Am G
And I forget about you long enough to forget why I needed too
C G
Cause here we are again in the middle of the night
Am F
We dance around the kitchen in the refrigerator light
C G Am F
Down the stairs, I was there, I remember it all too well
C G Am F G
C G
And maybe we got lost in translation maybe I asked for too much
Am F
But maybe this thing was a masterpiece 'til you tore it all up
C G Am F
Running scared, I was there, I remember it all too well
C G
Hey you call me up again just to break me like a promise
Am F
So casually cruel in the name of being honest
C G
I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lyin' here
Am F C G Am F
Cause I remember it all all all too well
C G
Time won't fly it's like I'm paralyzed by it
Am F
I'd like to be my old self again but I'm still tryin' to find it
C G
After plaid shirt days and nights when you made me your own
Am F
Now you mail back my things and I walk home alone
C G
But you keep my old scarf from that very first week
Am F
Cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me
C G Am F
You cant get rid of it cause you remember it all too well yeah
C G
Cause there we are again when I loved you so
Am F
Back before you lost the one real thing you've ever known
C G Am F
It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well
C G
Wind in my hair, you were there, you remember it oh
Am F

They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out the ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
But swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
We ended up at the grand hotel
It was empty cold and bare
But with the rolling truck stones thing just outside
Making our music there
With a few red lights and a few old beds
We make a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know we'll never forget
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

Looking back at the beginning of this

And how life was

Just you and me and love and all of our friends

Living life like an ocean

Now the currents slowly pulling me down

It's getting harder to breath

It won't be too long and I'll be going under

Oh, I won't go

I look ahead to all the plans that we made

And the dreams that we had

I'm in a world that tries to take them away
Am
Oh, but I'm taking them back
F
All this time I've just been to blind to understand

What should matter to me
My friend, this life we live
Is not what we have, it's what we believe
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
Oh, It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
Now I know that
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
Oh, I won't go
I won't go
It might be more than you believe
It might be something you can't see
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a will in me
Now it's gonna show
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
I won't go
There might be more than you believe
There might be more than you can see
It's not my time
I'm not going
There's a fear in me
It's not showing
This could be the end of me
And everything I know
It's not my time

This could be the end of me

We teach girls to shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller
C#m D
We say to girls You can have ambition. But not too much
C#m D
You should aim to be successful. But not too successful Otherwise you will threaten the man.
C#m D
Because I am female I am expected to aspire to marriage
C#m D
I am expected to make my life choices always keeping in mind that marriage is the most important
C#m D
Now marriage can be a source of. Joy and love and mutual support
C#m D
But why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage and we don't teach boys the same?
C#m D
We raise girls to each other as competitors, not for jobs or for accomplishments, which
I think can be a good thing
C#m D
But for the attention of men. We teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings, in the
way that boys are

Through the clouds I see love shine. It keeps me warm as life grows colder.

But only for one night and no repeat
And maybe you'll go away and never call

A taste of honey is worse than none at all
[Chorus]

Oh in that case I don't want no part
G D
I do believe that that would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like lovin' me
A G D
And you got the notion, I second that emotion
A G
Said, if you feel like givin' me a lifetime of devotion
D A G D A G D
I second that emotion

Maybe you think that love would tie you down
And you don't have the time to hand around
Or maybe you think that love was made for fools
And so it makes you wise to break the rules

No way to sound better but the killer was a Coward
Face just showers, the minute in a hour
Heard about the news all day went sour
Lil mama got me feeling like a limit here
Put you in the box just the presidents cigarettes
Give em my regards or regardless I get arrested

Sacrifice just to make a hit still vivid
Rihanna kiss you on ya neck just kill critics
Buggatti never when I'm rich, just god fearing
Look at me steering, got the bossing staring
Mr mike caren, tell his Billie Jeans

(Don't forget about us)
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
My baby boy
Just let it die
With no goodbyes
Details don't matter
We both paid the price
Tears in my eyes
You know sometimes
It'd be like that baby
Now every time I see you
I pretend I'm fine
When I wanna reach out to you
But I turn and I walk and I let it ride
Baby I must confess
We were bigger than anything
Remember us at our best
And don't forget about
[Chorus]
Late nights, playin' in the dark
And wakin' up inside my arms
Boy, you'll always be in my heart and
I can see it in your eyes
You still want it
So don't forget about us
I'm just speaking from experience
Nothing can compare to your first true love
So I hope this will remind you
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us
Oh they say
That you're in a new relationship
But we both know
Nothing comes close to
What we had, it perseveres
That we both can't forget it
How good we used to get it
There's only one me and you
And how we used to shine
No matter what you go through
We are one, that's a fact
That you can't deny
So baby we just can't let
The fire pass us by
Forever we'd both regret
So don't forget about
[Chorus]
And if she's got your head all messed up now
That's the trickery
She'll wanna have like you know how this lovin' used to be
I bet she can't do like me
She'll never be M-C
Baby don't you, don't you forget about us
[Chorus- x2]
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us.

Intro- G, Em, D
[Taylor Swift - Chorus]
G Em D C
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us
G Em D C
Someday I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us
[B.o.B]
G
Ever thought about losing it?
When your money is all gone and you lose your whip
Em
You might lose your grip
D
When the landlord tell you that you're due for rent
G
And the grass so green on the other side
Make a wanna run straight through the fence
Em
Open up the fridge about 20 times
D
But still can't find no food in it, that's foolishness
G
And sometimes I wonder why we care so much about the way we look
Em
And the way we talk, and the way we act
D
And the clothes we bought, how much that cost?
G
Does it even really matter?
Cuz if life is an uphill battle,
Em
We all try to climb on the same old ladder
D
In the same boat with the same old paddle
G
Why so shallow, I'm just asking
What's the pattern to the madness?
Em
Everybody in a #1 draft pick
D
Most of us aint Hollywood actors
G
But if it's all for one, and one for all, then maybe one day we all can ball
Em
Do it one time for the underdogs
D
Sincerely yours, from one of y'all
[Taylor Swift - Chorus]
G Em D C
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us
G Em D C
Someday I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us
[E.o.E]
G
I can feel your pain, I can feel your struggle
Em
You just want to live, but everything so low,
D
That you can drown in the puddle
G
That's why I gotta hold us up, yeah hold us up
For all the times no one ever spoke for us
Em
So every single time that they play this song
D
You can say that, that's what Bobby Ray wrote for us
G
When his eyes get too high and the sea up underneath get so deep
Em
And you feel like you're just another person getting lost in the crowd
D
Way up high in the nosebleeds (Uh)
G
Because we've both been there, yeah both of us
But we still stand tall, with our shoulders up
Em
And even though we always against the odds
D
These are the things that have molded us
G
And if life hadn't chosen us, sometimes I wonder
Where I would have wound up
Em
Cuz if it was up to me, I would make a new blueprint
D
Then build it from the ground up
G
Hey, but if its all for one, and One for all
Then maybe one day we all could ball
Em
Do it one time for the underdogs
D
From Bobby Ray to all of y'all
[Taylor Swift - Chorus]
G Em D C
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both us
G Em D C
Someday I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us

[Drake- Verse 1]
I've asked about you and they've told me things
But my mind didn't change, I still the feel the same
What's a life with no fun? please don't be so ashamed
I've had mine, you've had yours, we both know
We know, **strumming fast here sounds good** they don't get you like I will
My only wish is I die real
Cause that truth hurts, and those lies heal
And you can't sleep thinking that he lies still
So you cry still, tears all in the pillow case
Big girls all get a little taste
Pushing me away so I give her space
Dealing with a heart that I didn't break
I'll be there for you, I will care for you
I keep thanking you, just don't know
Try to run from that, say you're done with that
On your face girl, it just don't show
When you're ready, just say you're ready
When all the baggage just ain't as heavy
And the parties over, just don't forget me
We'll change the pace and we'll just go slow
*stop strumming* Won't ever have to worry,
You won't ever have to hide
If you've seen all my mistakes
So look me in my eyes

[Drake- Verse 2]
It's my birthday, I get high if I want to
Can't deny that I want you, but I lie if have to
Cause you don't say you love me
To your friend when they ask you
Even though we both know that you do (you do) *strumming here sounds good*
One time, been in love one time
You and all your girls in the club one time
All so convinced that you're following your heart
Cause your mind don't control what it does sometimes
We all have our nights though, don't be so ashamed
I've had mine, you've had yours, we both know
We know, *stop strumming* you hate being alone
You ain't the only one
You hate the fact that you bought the dream
And they sold you one
You love your friends but somebody shoulda told you somin' to save you
Instead they said…

I didn't mean it when I said I didn't love you so
I should have held on tight I never should have let you go
I didn't know nothing, I was stupid, I was foolish I was lying to myself
I couldn't of fathomed that I would ever be without your love
Never imagined I'd be sitting Here beside myself
Guess I didn't know you Guess I didn't know me
But if I knew everything. I've never felt
The feeling that I'm feeling Now that I don't hear your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips Cause I don't have a choice
Or what I wouldn't give To have you lying by my side
Right here, cause baby
Chorus 1
When you left I lost a part of me It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby please cause We belong together
Who else am I gonna lean on when times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place There ain't nobody better
Oh baby baby We belong together
Verse 2
I can't sleep at night When you are on my mind
Bobby Womack's on the radio
Singing to me If You Think You're Lonely Now
Wait a minute this is too deep [too deep]
I gotta change the station So I
turn the dial tryin to catch a break
And then I hear Babyface
I Only Think Of You it's breakin,, my heart
I'm tryin√¢ to keep it together but I'm falling apart
Im feeling all out of my element Throwing things, Cryin tryin
To figure out where the hell I went wrong The pain reflected and this song
Ain't even half of what I'm feeling inside I need you, need you back in my life
Baby

Intro: E-B-C#m-A- B-E-B-C#m-A-B
Verse 1: E B C#m A
When you feel all alone
And the world has turned it's back on you
Give me a moment please to tame your wild wild heart
I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you
It's hard to find relief and people can be so cold
When darkness is upon your door and you feel like you can't take anymore
Chorus: E B C#m | A B |
Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you in the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone
Verse 2:
When you feel all alone
And a loyal friend is hard to find
You're caught in a one way street
With the monsters in your head
When hopes and dreams are far away and
You feel like you can't face the day
(Repeat Chorus)
Refrain:
Because there has always been heartache and pain
And when it's all over you'll breathe again
You'll breathe again
Chorus:

I know I stand in line until you

think you have the time to spend an evening with me
F#m B F#m B
And if we go someplace to dance I know that there's a chance
E E6 E E6
you won't be leaving with me
E7 E9 E7 E9
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place

And have a drink or two
[Chorus]
F#m B F#m B
And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid
E E6 E E6
like I love you
[Verse]
E7 E9 E7 E9
I can see it in your eyes that you despise the same old lines
A
you heard the night before
F# C#m7 F#
And though it's just a line to you for me it's true
B
and never seemed so right before
E E6 E E6
I practice everyday to find some clever lines to say
F#m B F#m B
to make the meaning come true
F#m B F#m B
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late
E E6 E E6
And I'm alone with you

The time is right your perfume fills my head the stars get red

and on the nights so blue

[Verse 1]
|B |B |E |B 2x
Well I guess it would be nice if I could touch your body
I know not everybody has got a body like you
But I've got to think twice before I give my heart away
And I know all the games you play because I played them too
[Pre-chorus]
|E |B |E |B |E |B G#m |C#m |F#
But I need some time off from that emotion
Time to pick my heart up off the floor
When that love comes down without devotion
Well it takes a strong man, baby
But I'm showing you the door
[Chorus]
|B |B |B |B
Cause I've got to have faith
I've got to have faith
Because I've got to have faith, faith, faith
I've got to have faith, faith, faith
[Verse 2]
|B |B |E |B 2x
Baby I know you're asking me to stay
Say please, please, please don't go away
You say I'm giving you the blues
Maybe you mean every word you say
Can't help but think of yesterday
And another who tied me down to loverboy rules
[Pre-chorus]
|E |B |E |B |E |B G#m |C#m |F#
Before this river becomes an ocean
Before you throw my heart back on the floor
Oh baby I reconsider my foolish notion
Well I need someone to hold me but I'll wait for something more
[Chorus]
|B |B |B |B
Cause I've got to have faith
I've got to have faith
Because I've got to have faith, faith, faith
I've got to have faith, faith, faith

CHORUS-
If you had my love
And I gave you all my trust
Would you comfort me
And if somehow you knew that your love would be untrue
Would you lie to me
And call me baby
Verse
Now if I gave you me, this is how it's got to be
First of all I won't take you cheatin' on me
Tell me who can I trust if I can't trust in you
And I refuse to let you play me for a fool
You said that we could possibly spend eternity
See that's what you told me (that's what you said)
But if you want me
You have to be fulfilling all my dreams
(If you really want me babe)
CHORUS
Verse
Said you want my love and you've got to have it all
But first there are some things you need to know
If you want to live
With all I have to give
I need to feel true love
Or it's got to end, yeah
I don't want you
Trying to get with me
And I end up unhappy
(Don't need the hurt and I don't need the pain)
So before I do
Give myself to you
I have to know the truth
(If I spend my life with you)
CHORUS
