VERSE-
G Cadd9
Saying I love you is
Am7 C D G
not the words I want to hear from you
G Cadd9
It's not that I want you
Am7 C D Em
not to say but if you only knew

It would be to show me how you feel

C G/B Am7 D7 G
More than words to show you feel that your love for me is real

What would you say if I took those words away?

Then you couldn't make things new
D7 G
Just by saying I love you
(Repeat intro x2)
VERSE 2
Now that I've tried to
Talk to you and make you understand
All that you have to do is
Close your eyes and just reach out your hands
And touch me
Hold me close don't ever let me go
More than words
Is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say
That you love me
Cos I'd All Ready Know

I threw a wish in the well,

Don't ask me, I'll never tell

I looked to you as it fell,

I trade my soul for a wish,

pennies and dimes for a kiss

I wasn't looking for this,

Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans, skin was showin'

Hot night, wind was blowin'

Where you think you're going, baby?

Hey, I just met you,

And all the other boys,
try to chaaase me,
but here's my number,
so call me, maybe?
[Verse 2]
You took your time with the call,
I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all,
but still, you're in my way
I beg, and borrow and steal
Have foresight and it's real
I didn't know I would feel it,
but it's in my way
Your stare was holdin', Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot not, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?
Hey, I just met you,
and this is crazy,
but here's my number,
so call me, maybe?

Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
I missed you so bad
I missed you so, so bad
Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
And you should know that
I missed you so, so bad
It's hard to look right,
at you baaaabeh,
but here's my number,
so call me, maybe?
Hey, I just met you,

[Verse 1]
(A#) (F)
I've practiced this for hours, gone round and round
(GM)
And now I think that I've got it all down
[D#]
And as I say it louder I love how it sounds
(C)
Cause I'm not taking the easy way out
Not wrapping this in ribbons
(D#)
Shouldn't have to give a reason why...
[Chorus 1]
(D#)
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
(F)
I can't believe that I stayed till today
(GM)
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
(D#) (F) (A#)
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
[Verse 2]
(A#) (F)
It came out like a river once I let it out
(GM)
When I thought that I wouldn't know how
(D#)
Held onto it forever just pushing it down
(C)
Felt so good to let go of it now
Not wrapping this in ribbons
(A#)
Shouldn't have to give a reason why
[Chorus 2]
(A#)
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
(F)
I can't believe that I stayed till today
(GM)
There's nothing here in this heart left to borrow
(D#)
There's nothing here in this soul left to say
(A#)
Don't be surprised when we hate this tomorrow
(F)
God know we tried to find an easier way
(GM)
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
(D#) (F) (A#)
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
[Bridge]
(A#)
Our favorite place we used to go
(F)
The warm embrace that no one knows
(GM)
The loving look that's left your eyes
(D#) (F) (A#)
That's why this comes as no, as no surprise
[Verse 3]
(A#) (F)
If I could see the future and how this plays out
(GM)
I bet it's better than where we are now
(D#)
But after going through this, it's easier to see the reason why
[Chorus 1]
(D#)
It's no surprise I won't be here tomorrow
(F)
I can't believe that I stayed till today
(GM)
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
(D#) (F) (A#)
But I know in time we'll find this was no surprise
[Bridge]
(A#)
Our favorite place we used to go
(F)
The warm embrace that no one knows
(GM)
The loving look that's left your eyes
(D#) (F) (A#)
That's why this comes as no, as no surprise

When a single mom goes out on a date with somebody new

It always winds up feeling more like a job interview

My momma used to wonder if she'd ever meet someone

Who wouldn't find out about me and then turn around and run

I met the man I call my dad when I was 5 years old

He took my mom out to a movie and for once I got to go

A few months later I remember lying there in bed
E D A
I overheard him pop the question and I prayed that she'd say yes... And then
[Chorus 1]
Bm E
All of a sudden oh it seemed so strange to me

How we went from somethings missing to a family

Looking back all I can say about all the things he did for me
A D A
Is I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
[Verse 2]
A D
I met the girl who's now my wife about three years ago

We had the perfect marriage, but we wanted something more

Now here I stand surrounded by our family and friends

Crowded round the nursery window as they bring the baby in... And now
[Chorus 2]
Bm E
All of a sudden oh it seemed so strange to me
A D
How we've gone from somethings missing to a family

And I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be

You know he didn't have to be

Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
D
Look out kid
It's somethin' you did
A
God knows when
But you're doin' it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend

In the big pen

Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten.

Talkin' that the heat put
Plants in the bed but

Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the DA

Look out kid
Don't matter what you did

Don't try, 'No Doz'

You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows.

Get back, write Braille
Get jailed, jump bail, Join the army, if you failed

Six-time losers
Hang around the theaters

Lookin' for a new fool

Watch the parkin' meters.

Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed

Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift

Look out kid
They keep it all hid

Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals

The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles.

I've been tryna call
I've been on my own for long enough
Maybe you can show me how to love, maybe
I'm going through withdrawals
You don't even have to do too much
You can turn me on with just a touch, baby
I look around and
Sin City's cold and empty (oh)
No one's around to judge me (oh)
I can't see clearly when you're gone
I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights
No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch
I said, ooh, I'm drowning in the night
Oh, when I'm like this, you're the one I trust (Hey, hey, hey)
I'm running out of time
'Cause I can see the sun light up the sky
So I hit the road in overdrive, baby, oh
The city's cold and empty (oh)
No one's around to judge me (oh)
I can't see clearly when you're gone
I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights
No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch
I said, ooh, I'm drowning in the night
Oh, when I'm like this, you're the one I trust
I'm just walking by to let you know (by to let you know)
I can never say it on the phone (say it on the phone)
Will never let you go this time (ooh)
I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights
No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch
(Hey, hey, hey)
I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights
No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch
C Em D
All we do right is make love
C Em D
We both know now it ain't enough
C G

And kiss tomorrow goodbye
Baby who we are just didn't work
But maybe we can leave with something out of all this hurt
Ain't gonna beg you to stay
Ain't gotta ask you what's wrong
Ain't no reason running after something already gone
Take off your leavin' dress
Let's do what we do best
I guess everybody's got their way of moving on
Girl rest your head one more time in my bed
Love me like you loved me when you loved me
And you didn't have to try
Let's lay down tonight

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:
Eb
Beautiful girls all over the world

Cm
But you shouldn't worry about what they say
Dm
Cause they got nothing on you baby
F
Nothing on you baby
Not not not nothing on you babe
Not not nothing on you
I know you feel where i'm coming from
Regardless of the things in my past that i've done
Most of really was for the hell of the fun
On the carousel so around I spun (spun)
With no directions just tryna get some (some)
Tryna chase skirts, living in the summer sun (sun)
This is how I lost more than I had ever won
And honestly I ended up with none
There's no much nonsense
It's on my conscience
I'm thinking baby I should get it out
And I don't wanna sound redundant
But I was wondering if there was something that you wanna know
(that you wanna know)
But never mind that we should let it go (we should let it go)
Cos we don't wanna be a t.v episode (t.v episode)
And all the bad thoughts just let them go (go, go, go)
Beautiful girls all over the world
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothing on you baby
Nothing on you baby
They might say hi and I might say hey
But you shouldn't worry about what they say
Cos they got nothing on you baby
Nothing on you baby
Not not not nothing on you babe
Not not nothing on you
Hands down there will never be another one
I been around and I never seen another one
Look at your style they ain't really got nothing on
And you out and you ain't got nothing on
Baby you the whole package plus you pay your taxes
And you keep it real while them other stay plastic
You're my wonder women call me mr. fantastic
Stop.. now think about it
I've been to london, i've been to paris
Even went out there to tokyo
Back home down in georgia to new orleans
But you always still to show (still to show)
And just like that girl you got me fro (got me fro)
Like a nintendo 64 (64)
If you never knew well now you know (know, know, know)
Beautiful girls all over the world
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothing on you baby
Nothing on you baby
They might say hi and I might say hey
But you shouldn't worry about what they say
Cos they got nothing on you baby
Nothing on you baby
Not not not nothing on you babe
Not not nothing on you
Everywhere I go i'm always hearing your name (name, name)
And no matter where i'm at girl you make me wanna sing (sing)
Weather a bus or a plane or a car or a train
No other girls in my brain and you the one to blame
Beautiful girls all over the world
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothing on you baby
Nothing on you baby
They might say hi and I might say hey
But you shouldn't worry about what they say
Cos they got nothing on you baby
Nothing on you baby
Not not not nothing on you babe
Not not nothing on you

When I picked her up for our first date,

I told her I'd be there at eight,

And she came down the stairs at 8-30,

She said I'm sorry that I took so long,

Didn't like a thing that I tried on,

But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty,
Dm C-F
Yea she'll take her time, but I don't mind,

Waitin on a woman
(verse 2)
He said the wedding took a year to plan,
You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous,
Waitin on a woman
And he nudged my arm like old men do, and said
I'll say this about the honeymoon, it was worth it,
Waitin on a woman
(chorus)
Am (G)
And I don't guess we'd been anywhere
F
She hasn't made us late I swear,
C G C
Sometimes she does it just cause she can do it,
Am (G)
Boy it's just a fact of life,
F
it's be the same with your young wife,
C F C
Might as well go on and get used to it,
Dm C-F
she'll take her time, cause you don't mind,
C
Waitin on a woman
( lead - G - C - G - C )
(pre-cho)
Am (G)
I've read somewhere statistics show,
F
The mans always the first to go,
C G C (C/B)
And that makes sense cause I know she won't be ready,
Am (G)
So when it finally comes my time,
F
And I get to the other side,
C F C
I'll find myself a bench if they got any,
Dm C-F
I hope she takes her time, cause I don't mind,
C
Waitin on a woman,

Honey take your time, cause I don't mind,

Put his arms around your waist (held you tight)

said to my shock, you're on the wrong blo-ock
Em Am D7 D G
Rushed down to your house with wings (on my feet)

Loved you like I never loved (you my sweet)

Vowed that you and I would be two silhouettes on the shade,

On the roof, it's peaceful as can be

And there the world below can't bother me
Let me tell you now
G Em
When I come home feelin' tired and beat
C D G
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof)
Em
I get away from the hustling crowd
C D G
And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof)
C
On the roof, the only place I know
G Em C D
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Let's go up on the roof (up on the roof)
C
At night the stars put on a show for free
G Em C D
And, darling, you can share it all with me
I keep a-tellin' you
G Em
Right smack dab in the middle of town
C D G
I've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof)

And if this world starts getting you down

There's room enough for two

Up on the roof (up on the roof)

(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.
[Verse] G
When the sun goes down on my side of town
That lonesome feelin' comes to my door
C G
An' the whole world turns... blue
G
There's a rundown bar across the railroad tracks
I got a table for two, way in the back
C G
Where I sit alone... and I think of losin' you
D G
I spend most every night beneath the light of a neon moon
[Chorus] C D
Now, if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams dance in and out of the beams
G
Of a neon moon.
[Verse] G
I think of two young lovers a-runnin' wild and free
I close my eyes and sometimes see
C G
You in the shadows of this smoke-filled room
G
No tellin' how many tears I've sat here and cried
Or how many lies that I've lied
C G
Tellin' my poor heart she'll come back someday
D G
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon
[Chorus]
[Verse] G
The jukebox plays on drink by drink
And the words to ev'ry sad song seem to say what I think
C G
And this hurt inside of me, it ain't never gonna end

Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon

On a moon spattered road in her parrot rebozo
Gypsy Scotty is driving his big long yellow car
She flies like a bird over her shoulder
She whispers in his ear, boy, you are my star
CHORUS
In the bone colored dawn
Me and Gypsy Scotty are singin'
The radio is playing
She left her shoes out in the back
He tells me a story about some girl he knows in Kentucky
He just made that story up; there ain't no girl like that

(same as 1st verse)
I'll be your girl backstage at your show
Velvet ropes and guitars
Yeah cause you're my rockstar in between the sets
Eyeliner and cigarettes
Shadow is burnt, yellow dance and return
My lashes are dry, purple teardrops I cry
It don't have a price
Loving you is Cherry Pie
'Cause you know that baby I-
CHORUS
Bm
Real good, we dance in the studio
Step step, to that shit on the radio
Don't stop, for anyone
We're plastic but we'll still have fun
You're here, I'm pleased
I really dig your company
Your style, your smile, your peace mentality
Lord, have mercy on me
I was blind, now I can see
What a king's supposed to be
Baby I feel free, come on and go with me
Let's take a long walk around the park
(intro)- |D Em | x4

Time__, why you punish me
Like a wave crashing into the shore
You wash away my dreams

Like a friend with somewhere to go
You left me crying

Can you teach me about tommorow
G D Em D Em
and all the pain and sorrow, running free
Em Asus A
Cause tomorrow's just another day
D Em etc
And I don't believe in time
Time__, I don't understand
Chidren killing in the streets
Dying for the color of a rag
Time__, hey there red and blue
Wash them in the ocean make them clean
Maybe their mothers won't cry tonight
Will you teach me about tommorow
When all the pain and sorrow, running free
But tomorrow's just another day
And I don't believe in

Time is wasting

Time is wasting
Time is walking
You ain't no friend of mine
I don't know where I'm going
Think I'm out of my mind
Thinking about time
Time__, you left me standing there
Like a tree growing all alone
The wind just stripped me bare, stripped me bare
Time__, the past has come and gone
The future's far away
But now only lasts for one second, one second
Can you teach me about tommorow
And all the pain and sorrow, running free
Cause tommorow's just another day
And I don't believe in
Time is wasting
Time is walking
You ain't no friend of mine
I don't know where I'm going
Think I'm out of my mind {keep playing Ds and Ems}
Walking, wasted
You ain't no friend of mine
I don't know where I'm going

At this point an acoustic guitar enters strumming the chords. From this
point on, one of the electrics plays the riff during the verses, the part
shown above during the bridges, and strums the chords during the choruses
(Time is wasting..) and solo. The second electric plays the occasional
power chord during verses and bridges and strums along to the choruses.
It also takes the solo-

Turn me on turn me off then you turn me back on by the weekend
And you won't say the words that I want but you flirt when you're drinkin'
I see those bubbles pop up like you're texting then they disappear
Lets cut through the shit then let's get to what we're doing here
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we last call kissing or will
we be reminiscing with each other for the next forty years
Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand
[Instrumental]
D G C
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I want you to want me to take you back home to my mama
Put my name on your lips call me yours and forget all this drama
Your makeup is next to my toothbrush but you never put it away on the shelf
I'm asking you baby cuz I'm tired of asking myself
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we-last call kissing, are we dancing in the kitchen,
baby tell me what it is or what it isn't?
Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we last call kissing or will
we be reminiscing with each other for the next forty years
Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand

[Verse 1] F# C# G#m B (8X)
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me /
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kinda dumb with her finger and her /
Thumb in the shape of an "L" on her forehead /
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running /
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb /
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets /
You'll never know if you don't go You'll never shine if you don't glow
[Chorus] F# B Cdim B (3X)
Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play
Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid
And all that glitters is gold
F# E B
Only shooting stars break the mold
[Verse 2] F# C# G#m B (4X)
It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now but wait 'til you get older /
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The waters getting warm so you might as well swim /
My world's on fire how about yours
That's the way I like it and I never get bored
[Chorus]
[Verse 3] F# C# G#m B (8X)
Somebody once asked, could I spare some change for gas
/I need to get myself away from this place /
I said yep what a concept I could use a little fuel myself /
And we could all use a little change /
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running /
Didn't make sense not to live for fun Y
our brain gets smart but your head gets dumb /
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets /
You'll never know if you don't go, go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
[Chorus 3
F# B Cdim B
all that glitters is gold
F# E B
Only shooting stars break the mold
Em
Baby I'm preying on you tonight
D
Hunt you down, eat you alive

I can smell your scent for miles

Just like animals, animals, like animals

D
So what you trying to do to me
C
It's like we can't stop, we're enemies

You're like a drug that's killing me
C
I cut you out entirely
But I get so high when I'm inside you
(Bridge)
Em
Yeah you can start over
You can run free
D
You can find other fish in the sea
C
You can pretend it's meant to be
But you can't stay away from me

I can still hear you making that sound
D
Taking me down, oh, under the ground
C
You can pretend it was me below

So if I run, it's not enough
C
You're still in my head, forever stuck
But you can do, what you wanna do
Em D
I love your lies, I'll eat 'em up
C
But don't deny the animal
That comes alive when I'm inside you
(Bridge)
Em
Yeah you can start over
You can run free

You can find other fish in the sea

You can pretend it's meant to be
But you can't stay away from me

Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts,

Hot ashes for trees, hot air for a cool breeze, cold comfort for change,

And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.
