Verse #1-
D A G
I'm only pretty sure that I can't take anymore. Before you
D A G
take a swing, I wonder what are we fighting
D A G
for. When I say out loud, I want to get out of this, I wonder
D A G
Is there anything I'm gonna miss
Chorus #1-
G
I wonder
Em A
How's it gonna be, when you don't know me,
Em G
How's it gonna be, when you're sure I'm not there,
Em A
How's it gonna be, when there's no one there to talk to,
Em G
Between you and me, 'cause I don't care, How's it gonna
D A G
be...
Intro Riff
Verse #2-
D A G
Where we used to laugh, there's a shouting match. Sharp as a thumbnail
D A G
scratch. A silence I can't ignore. Like the hammock by the doorway
D A G
we spent time in, swing's empty. I don't see lightning like last fall,
D A G
when it was always about to hit me
Chorus #2-
G
I wonder
Em A
How's it gonna be, when it goes down
Em G
How's it gonna be, when you're not around
Em A
How's it gonna be, when you found out there was nothing
Em G
Between you and me, 'cause I don't care, How's it gonna
D A G
be...
--Begin the distortion man--
Em G D A
How's it gonna be when you don't know me anymore
Em G
How's it gonna be
D A G
Wanna kill myself like he did
D A G
the salt of love dreary air
D A G
I wanna taste the salt of your skin
D A G
the salt of the bloomy air the bloomy air (blew my head?)
Em G D A
How's it gonna be when you don't know me anymore
Em G
How's it gonna be
--Stop the distortion man!--
Intro Riff
D A G
How's it gonna be.....

[Verse 1]
G C G
On a warm summer's evenin' on a train bound for nowhere,
C G C D
I met up with the gambler; we were both too tired to sleep.
G C G
So we took turns a starin' out the window at the darkness
C G D G
'til boredom overtook us, and he began to speak.
[Verse 2]
G C G
He said, "Son, I've made a life out of readin' people's faces,
C G C D
and knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their eyes.
G C G
And if you don't mind my sayin', I can see you're out of aces.
C G D G
For a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice."
[Verse 3]
G C G
So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow.
C G C D
Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light.
G C G
And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression.
C G D G
Said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right.
[Chorus]
G C G
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,
C G C D
know when to walk away and know when to run.
G C G
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
C G D G
There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.
[Verse 4] (transpose +1 here if you want to play it correctly)
G C G
Ev'ry gambler knows that the secret to survivin'
C G C D
is knowin' what to throw away and knowing what to keep.
G C G
'Cause ev'ry hand's a winner and ev'ry hand's a loser,
C G D G
and the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep."
[Verse 5]
G C G
And when he'd finished speakin', he turned back towards the window,
C G C D
crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep.
G C G
And somewhere in the darkness the gambler, he broke even.
C G D G
But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep.
[Chorus]
G C G
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,
C G C D
know when to walk away and know when to run.
G C G
You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.
C G D G
There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.
G C G
You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,

know when to walk away and know when to run.

It’s unbelievable, how I used to say that I’d fall never.

If all things in time, time will reveal. Yeah.

C9 Am7 D7
And all emotional, once you know what it’s all about, hey,

And undesirable, for us to be apart.
Fmaj7 Em7 A7 A
I never would’ve made it very far,
Fmaj7 Am7 D7
cause you know you got the keys to my heart.

One, you’re like a dream come true. Two, just wanna’ be with you

Say farewell to the dark of night; I see the coming of the sun.

You threw out the lifeline just in the nick of time.

Bm A F#m Bm
Many nights we've prayed, with no proof anyone could hear

In our hearts a hopeful song we barely understood

Now we are not afraid, although we know there's much to fear
G D Em A
We were moving mountains long before we knew we could

There can be miracles, when you believe

Seeking faith and speaking words I never thought I'd say

But when you're blinded by your pain

Can't see your way safe through the rain
C#m
Thought of a still resilient voice

Things haven't been quite the same
There's a haze on the horizon, babe
It's only been a couple of days and I miss you, yeah
And nothing really goes to plan
You stub your toe or break your camera
I'd do everything I can to help you through
[Pre-Chorus] Cm7 Bbmaj7
If you're feeling down, I just wanna make you happier, baby
Wish I was around, I just wanna make you happier, baby

We've been doing all this late night talking
About anything you wanted till the morning

Never ever gonna get it
I remember how it used to be
You never was this nice, you can't fool me
Now you talkin' like you made a change
The more you talk, the more things sound the same
What makes you think you can just walk back into her life
Without a good fight? Oh
I just sit back and watch you make a fool of yourself
Cuz you're just wasting your time, oh
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
Now you promise me the moon and stars
Save your breath, you won't get very far
Gave you many chances to make change
The only thing you changed was love to hate
It doesn't matter what you do or what you say
She doesn't love you, no way
Maybe next time you'll give your woman a little respect
So you won't be hearing her say, No way
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
No, you're never gonna get it (not this time)
Never ever gonna get it (my lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (had your chance to make a change)
Never ever gonna get it
Doesn't matter what you do or what you say
She don't love you, no way
Maybe next time you'll give your woman a little respect
So you won't be hearing her say, No way
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it (whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa)
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it, never gonna get it
Never gonna get it, never get it
No, you're never gonna get it (sweet lovin')
Never ever gonna get it (sweet lovin')
No, you're never gonna get it (my lovin')

Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in disguise
Am F C Am
Coming out, coming out, coming out
Am F C Am
A domesticated girl that's all you ask of me
Am F C Am
Darling it is no joke, this is lycanthropy
Am F C Am
The moon's awake now, with eyes wide open
Am F C Am
My body's craving, so feed the hungry
Am F C Am
I've been devoting myself to you Monday to Monday and Friday to Friday
Am F C Am
Not getting enough retribution or decent incentives to keep me at it
Am F C Am
I'm starting to feel just a little abused like a coffee machine in an office
Am F C Am
So I'm gonna go somewhere cozy to get me a lover and tell you all about it
[Chorus]
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in your closet
Am F C Am
Open up and set her free
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in your closet
Am F C Am
Let it out so it can breathe
[Interlude]
Am F C Am x2
[Verse 2]
Am F C Am
Sitting across a bar, staring right at her prey
Am F C Am
It's going well so far, she's gonna get her way
Am F C Am
Nocturnal creatures are not so prudent
Am F C Am
The moon's my teacher, and I'm her student
Am F C Am
To locate the single men, I got on me a special radar
Am F C Am
And the fire department hotline in case I get in trouble later
Am F C Am
Not looking for cute little divos or rich city guys that just want to enjoy
Am F C Am
But having a very good time and behave very bad in the arms of a boy
[Chorus]
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in disguise
Am F C Am
Coming out, coming out, coming out
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in disguise
Am F C Am
Coming out, coming out, coming out

There's a she wolf in your closet

A Dadd9
It's been one week since you looked at me
A Dadd9
Cocked your head to the side and said "I'm angry"
A Dadd9
Five days since you laughed at me saying
A Dadd9
"Get that together come back and see me"
A Dadd9
Three days since the living room
A Dadd9
I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
A Dadd9
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
A Dadd9
but it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry
(During the rap its just kind of a funky rock thing I dont really know what its
called but you just hold 000033 if it feels more comfortable you can play G but
you're really only going to strum the high strings)
Hold it now and watch the hoodwink
As I make you stop, think
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman
I summon fish to the dish, although I like the Chalet Swiss
I like the sushi
'cause it's never touched a frying pan
Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes
Big like LeAnn Rimes
Because I'm all about value
Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits
You try to match wits, you try to hold me but I bust through
Gonna make a break and take a fake
I'd like a stinkin achin shake
I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours
Gotta see the show, cause then you'll know
The vertigo is gonna grow
Cause it's so dangerous,
you'll have to sign a waiver
[Chorus]
F#m7 Esus4
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
A/C# Dadd9
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
F#m7 Esus4
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
A/C#
Can't understand what I mean?
Dadd9
Well, you soon will
F#m7 Esus4
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
A/C# Dadd9
I have a history of taking off my shirt
[Verse 2]
A Dadd9
It's been one week since you looked at me
A
Threw your arms in the air
Dadd9
and said "You're crazy"
A Dadd9
Five days since you tackled me
A Dadd9
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
A Dadd9
It's been three days since the afternoon
A
You realized it's not my fault
Dadd9
not a moment too soon
A Dadd9
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
A Dadd9
And now I sit back and wait til you say you're sorry
(Again with the 000033 through the whole verse)
Chickity China the Chinese chicken
You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'
Watchin' X-Files with no lights on
We're dans la maison
I hope the Smoking Man's in this one
Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic
Like Sting I'm tantric
Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy
Like Kurasawa I make mad films
Okay, I don't make films
But if I did they'd have a Samurai
Gonna get a set a' better clubs
Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs
Just so my irons aren't always flying off the back-swing
Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon
'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes
That make me think the wrong thing
[Chorus]
F#m7 Esus4
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
A/C# Dadd9
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
F#m7 Esus4
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
A/C#
Can't understand what I mean?
Dadd9
Well, you soon will
F#m7 Esus4
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
A/C# Dadd9
I have a history of losing my shirt
[Verse 3]
A Dadd9
It's been one week since you looked at me
A
Dropped your arms to your sides
Dadd9
and said "I'm sorry"
A Dadd9
Five days since I laughed at you and said
A Dadd9
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do"
A Dadd9
Three days since the living room
A
We realized we're both to blame,
Dadd9
but what could we do?
A Dadd9
Yesterday you just smiled at me
A Dadd9
Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
[Outro]
A Esus4
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
A Esus4
It'll still be two days till we say wasabi

Yeah, I was just hangin' out
Some little west coast town
Found a bar out by the sand
So I made my way in
First thing that caught my eye
Like nothin' I ever seen
Sunburned auburn hair
A California dream
Yeah, she was shakin' them hips
To some old Motown song
I couldn't say a thing
So I sang along
She was a heartache on the dance floor
(Heartache on the dance floor)
Yeah, she's movin' through my mind
(Movin' through my mind)
I gotta know her name, and I got to see her again
She's got me wonderin'
Yeah, I'm just wonderin'
Where she at, where she at, where she at tonight?
Where she at, where she at, where she at tonight?
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah
So I just hung around
This little west coast town
I dropped by every night
I stayed 'til closin' time
My little mystery
That girl is killin' me
So I put on a song
Just to sing along
She was a heartache on the dance floor
(Heartache on the dance floor)
Yeah, she's movin' through my mind
(Movin' through my mind)
I've gotta know her name, and I got to see her again
She's got me wonderin', yeah, I'm just wonderin'
Where she at, where she at, where she at tonight?
Where she at, where she at, where she at tonight?
She's got me mesmerized
She's all I'm thinkin' 'bout
All I think about, think about, think about
So I'm right here, right now
Hummin' this little song
If I could say a thing
I'd want you to know
You were a heartache on the dance floor
(Heartache on the dance floor)
Yeah, you're movin' through my mind
(Movin' through my mind) oh
I got to know your name, I got to see you again
And if you're listenin', listenin', listenin'
Where you at, where you at, where you at tonight?
Where you at, where you at, where you at tonight?
Girl, I'm hangin' 'round this little town, yeah
(Where you goin', baby?)
Where you at, where you at, where you at tonight?
Where you at, where you at, where you at tonight?
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Intro-
Bmaj7 B7 Emaj7 [2X]
Do do-do-do do do
Verse 1-
Bmaj7 B7 Emaj7
As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
Bmaj7 Amaj7
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Bmaj7 B7
Just as hate knows love's the cure
Emaj7
You can rest your mind assure
G#m A#m D#7 G#m7 G#m6 C#m7 F#7
That I'll be loving you always
Verse 2-
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
Do know what I say is true
G#m A#m D#7 (G#m)
That I'll be loving you always
Chorus 1-
G#m D#7/A# B C#
(Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky)
Always
G#m D#7/A# B C#
(Until the ocean covers every mountain high)
Always
G#m D#7/A# B C#
(Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea)
G#m D#7/A# B [1- F9; to bridge]
Always [others- C#]
(Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream)
Bridge-
Emaj7 Bmaj7
Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Emaj7 Dmaj9
Her acceptance is the way we came
Emaj7 Bmaj7
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
C#m7 A#m7/D# D#7 C#m9 F#13
To last through forever and another day (just)
Verse 3-
Just as time knew to move on since the beginning
And the seasons know exactly when to change
Just as kindness knows no shame
Know through all your joy and pain
That I'll be loving you always
Verse 4-
As today I know I'm living but tomorrow
Could make me that past but that I mustn't fear
For I'll know deep in my mind
The love of me I've left behind
'Cause I'll be loving you always
Chorus 2 [chorus chord progression continues to fade]-
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and sea just up and fly away
Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four
Until the day that is the day that are no more
Chorus 3-
Until the day the earth starts turning right to left
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through
Until the day that you are me and I am you
[repeat first two lines of chorus 1]
[piano solo]
Interlude-
We all know sometimes life's hate and troubles
Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet your life times that and twice its double
That God knew exactly where He wanted you to be placed
So make sure when you say you're in it but not of it
You're not helping to make this Earth a place sometimes called Hell
Change your words into truths and then change that truth into love
And maybe our children's grandchildren
And their great-great-grandchildren will tell
I'll be loving you...
[repeat choruses 1, 2, 3]
Always...
Playing Notes-
1. Just one bass guitar (looped) and one rhythm guitar. As with many classics,
this song is very easy to play. Just get the rhythm down and you are set.
2. I am omitting lyrics since the whole song is based on this simple arrangement.

G
Sittin on a bench at West Town mall,
C-Csus4
He sat down in his overalls, and asked me,
C-Csus4
You waitin on a woman,
G
I nodded yes n' how bout you,
C-Csus4
He said son since 1952, I've been,
C-Csus4
Waitin on a woman
(chorus)
Am (G)
When I picked her up for our first date,
F
I told her I'd be there at eight,
C G C
And she came down the stairs at 8-30,
Am (G)
She said I'm sorry that I took so long,
F
Didn't like a thing that I tried on,
C F C
But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty,
Dm C-F
Yea she'll take her time, but I don't mind,
C-Csus4= 2x's
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 )

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,

I'll find myself a bench if they got any,

I hope she takes her time, cause I don't mind,

song today
(Em... D.... G... Bm....A... continued for the rest of the song)
i learned the hard way
that they all say
things you wanna hear
and my heavy heart
sings deep down under you
and your twisted words
your help just hurts
you were not what i thought you were
hello to high and dry
convinced me to please you
made me think that i need this too
i'm trying to let you hear me as i am
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's
make or break in this
if your on your way
i'm not gonna write you to stay
if all you have is leavin' im'a need a better reason to write you a love song today
promise me
you'll leave the light on
to help me see
(im guessing)- with daylight, my guide, gone (it sounds like something like that..)
'cause i believe there's a way
you can love me because i say
i wont write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one you see
i'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
is that why you wanted a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one you see
im not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
if your on your way
im not gonna write you to stay
if your heart is no where in it
i dont want it for a minute
babe ill walk the seven seas
when i believe that there's a reason
to write you a love song today

So I went hard like Medusa starin' at me,
I told her, Let's go! Let's blow this lame factory!
She said, What kind of girl do you think that I are?
The kind that you meet in a bar?
You think you can get whatever you want
Cuz you some kind of star...
No, I'm a comet, I
Just want you woman, hey
If I were you it would be me that I'd go home with, 3
The one and only
One thang you ain't considered,
I heard you when you told your girl, Oooh, he can get it...
Admit it!
You did it!
Let's hop a cab, and split it!
I'm kiddin'!
We both goin' to where you livin'!
Ha! I got you gigglin' like a piglet!
Oh, that's the ticket!
I hope you more like Anita Baker than Robin Givens.
No, I don't know that lady so let me quit it,
I'm just style-freein',
Freestylin' which I seldom do,
This is what I'm tellin' you,
To the bed I'm nailin' you,
Like I've been in jail for two,
Years and then they let me loose...
give me the green light
give me just one night
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
we could go all night
give me the green light
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now
im ready to go right now

Verse 1: Em C G D
What would I do without your smart mouth / Drawing me in, and kicking me out
Got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind / I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright
Pre Chorus: Am Em D Am Am Em D D
My heads under water / But Im breathing fine / You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
Chorus: G Em Am D 2X
Cause all of me / Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me / I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose Im winning
Em C G D 2X
Cause I give you all, all of me
And you give me all, all of you, oh
Verse 2: Em C G D
How many times do I have to tell you / Even when you're crying you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every move
You're my downfall, you're my muse / My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can't stop singing, its ringing, in my head for you
Pre Chorus: Am Em D Am Am Em D D
My heads under water / But Im breathing fine / You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
[Chorus]

It's the hard knock lCife (uh-huh) Dfor Eus
It's the hard knock lEife, Dfor Cus!!
Steada Treated,Cwe Dget Etricked
Steada kisses, Ewe gDet Ckicked
It's the hard knock life!! C D E
Verse
Just keep repeating C D E, E D C But here are the rest of the words-
From standin on the corners boppin
to drivin some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen
For droppin some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard
From the dope spot, with the smoke Glock
fleein the murder scene, you know me well
from nightmares of a lonely cell, my only hell
But since when y'all z know me to fail? Fuck naw
Where all my z with the rubber grips, bust shots
And if you with me mom I rub on your tits, and what-not
I'm from the school of the hard knocks, we must not
let outsiders violate our blocks, and my plot
let's stick up the world and split it fifty/fifty, uh-huh
Let's take the dough and stay real jiggy, uh-huh
And sip the Cris' and get pissy-pissy
Flow infinitely like the memory of my Biggie, baby!
You know it's hell when I come through
The life and times of Shawn Carter
Volume 2, y'all z get ready
Chorus
Verse
I flow for those 'dro'ed out; all my z
locked down in the ten by fo', controllin the house
We live in hard knocks, we don't take over we borrow blocks
Burn em down and you can have it back daddy, I'd rather that
I flow for chicks wishin, they ain't have to strip to pay tuition
I see you vision mama, I put my money on the longshots
All my ballers that's born to clock
Now Imma be on top whether I perform or not
I went from lukewarm to hot; sleepin on futons and cots
to King Size, dream machines, the green fives
I've seen pies let the thing between my eyes analyze life's ills
Then I put it down type braile
I'm tight grill with the phony, rappers y'all might feel we homies
I'm like still, y'all don't know me, shit!
I'm tight grill when my situation ain't improvin
I'm tryin to murder everything movin, feel me?!
Chorus
Verse
I don't KNOW how to sleep, I gotta eat, stay on my toes
Gotta a lot of beef, so logically, I prey on my foes
Hustling's still inside of me, and as far as progress
you'd be hard-pressed, to find another rapper hot as me
I gave you prophecy on my first joint, and y'all lamed out
Didn't really appreciate it, til the second one came out
So I stretched the game out, X'ed your name out
Put Jigga on top, and drop albums non-stop for ya, uh!
Chorus x2
... It's the hard knock life!!
................ it's the hard knock life!!

There is a hollow in me now

I'm living on such sweet nothing

I'm living on such sweet nothing

Run a-way, I've got to;
Gm A# D#
Get A-way,
Csus2 Gm A# D# Csus2
From the pain you drive in-to the heart of me.

The love we share, seems to,

You don't really want any more from me.
Gm A# D#
To make things right,
Csus2 Gm A# D#
You need some-one to hold you tight.

And you think love is to pray,

But I'm sorry, I don't pray that way.

Once I ran to you, now I run from you,

This tainted love you've given,

It's been so lonely without U here
like a bird without a song
nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
tell me baby where did I go wrong?
I could put my arms around every boy I see
but they only remind me of U.
I went to the doctor and guess what he told me guess what he told me
he said- girl U better try to have fun no matter what U do
but he's a fool
'cos nothing compares
nothing compares 2U.
All the flowers that U planted mama
in the back yard
all died when U went away
I know that living with U baby was sometimes hard
but I'm willing 2 give U another try
'cos nothing compares
nothing compares 2U.

Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street
Faster than the wind, passionate as sin ending so suddenly
Loving him is like trying to change your mind once you're already flying through the free fall
Like the colors in autumn
[Verse 1] Cm G# A# G7
They say, Oh, my God, I see the way you shine
Take your hand, my dear, and place them both in mine
You know, you stopped me dead while I was passing by
And now I beg to see you dance just one more time

Ooh, I see you, see you, see you every time
And oh, my I-I, I-I like your style
You, you make me, make me, make me wanna cry
And now I beg to see you dance just one more time

So I say dance for me, dance for me, dance for me, oh-oh-oh
I never seen anybody do the things you do before
They say move for me, move for me, move for me, ay-ay-ay
And when you're done I'll make you do it all again
[Verse 2]
I said, oh, my God, I see you walking by
Take my hands, my dear, and look me in my eyes
Just like a monkey I've been dancing my whole life
And you just beg to see me dance just one more time

Intro- Am – Dm – Fmaj7 – E – E7- E7* - E7 x2
Am Dm
I Feel So Unsure
Famj7
As i take your hand
E E7 E* E7
And lead you to the dance floor
Am
As the music dies
Dm
Something in your eyes
Fmaj7
Calls to mind a silver screen
E E7 E* E7 Am
And all its sad goodbyes
Am
I'm never gonna dance again
Dm
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Fmaj7
Though it's easy to pretend
E
I know you're not a fool
Am
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
Dm
And waste a chance that i've been given
Fmaj7
So i'm never gonna dance again
E
The way i danced with you
Am Dm
Time can never mend
Fmaj7 E E7 E* E7
The careless whisper of a good friend
Am
To the heart and mind
Dm
Ignorance is kind
Fmaj7
There's no comfort in the truth
E E7 E* E7 Am
Pain is all you'll find
Am
I'm never gonna dance again
Dm
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Fmaj7
Though it's easy to pretend
E
I know you're not a fool
Am
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
Dm
And waste a chance that i've been given
Fmaj7
So i'm never gonna dance again
E
The way i danced with you
Am
Tonight the music seems so loud
Dm
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Fmaj7
Maybe it's better this way
E
We'd hurt each other with the things we want to say
Am
We could have been so good together
Dm
We could have lived this dance forever
Fmaj7 E
But now who's gonna dance with me
E7 E* E7
Please stay
Am
I'm never gonna dance again
Dm
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Fmaj7
Though it's easy to pretend
E
I know you're not a fool
Am
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
Dm
And waste a chance that i've been given
Fmaj7
So i'm never gonna dance again
E
The way i danced with you
Am Dm
Now that you've gone
Fmaj7 E
Now that you've gone
Am Dm
Now that you've gone
Fmaj7
Was what i did so wrong
E
So wrong that you had to leave me alone
Am – Dm – Fmaj7 – E X2

You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry cuz
Everything's going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all i know is everything's going to be alright
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel
C# B
I know some people search the world
A E
To find something like what we have
C# B
I know people will try
Try to divide
A
Something so real
E
So til the end of time
I'm telling you
There is no one
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

Lights go out and I can't be saved, tides that I tried to swim against
Brought me down upon my knees, oh I beg I beg and plead -singing
Come out of the things unsaid, shoot an apple off my head - and a
trouble that can't be named, tigers waiting to be tamed - singing
w/Piano Riff-
ye hooooooooh aahh ye hooooooooh aahh
w/Piano Riff-
Confusion never stops, closing walls and ticking clocks - gonna
come back and take you home, I could not stop the tune now known - singing
Come out upon my seas, curse missed opportunities - am I
a part of the cure, or am I a part of the disease? - singing

Eb Cm Ab Eb
Eb Cm
When I was in the third grade I thought I was gay
Ab Eb
'Cause I could draw, an' my uncle was, and I kept my room straight
Eb Cm
I told my mom tears rushing down my face
Ab Eb
She's like Ben you've loved girls since before pre-k, trippin'
Eb Cm
Yea I guess she had a point didn't she?
Ab Eb
Bunch of stereotypes all in my head.
Eb Cm
I remember doing the math like, yea I'm good at little league
Ab Eb
A preconceived idea of what it all meant
(repeat progression)
For those that liked the same sex
Had the characteristics
The right wing conservatives think it's a decision
And you can be cured with some treatment and religion
Man made rewiring of a predisposition
Playing god, aw nah here we go
America the brave still fears what we don't know
And god loves all his children, is somehow forgotten
But we paraphrase a book written thirty-five-hundred years ago
I don't know
Eb Eb Eb/C Eb/Ab Eb
And I can't change
Eb Eb/C
Even if I tried
Ab Eb
Even if I wanted to
Eb
I'm acting strange
Eb/Cm Ab
Even if I try
Eb Eb Eb/C
Even if I wanted to
Ab Eb
My love, my love, my love
Eb Eb/C
She keeps me warm
Ab Eb
She keeps me warm
Eb Eb/C
She keeps me warm
Ab Eb
She keeps me warm
Eb Cm
If I was gay, I would think hip-hop hates me
Cm/Ab Eb
Have you read the YouTube comments lately
Eb Ebsus4/F Eb/G Cm
Man, that's gay get dropped on the daily
Ab Ab6 Ab7 Eb
We become so numb to what we're saying
Eb Cm
A culture founded from oppression, yet we don't have acceptance for 'em
Ab Eb
Call each other faggots behind the keys of a message board
Eb Cm
A word rooted in hate, yet our genre still ignores it
Ab Eb
A gay is synonymous with the lesser
Eb Cm
It's the same hate that's caused wars from religion
Ab Eb
Gender to skin color, the complexion of your pigment
(repeat progression)
The same fight that led people to walk outs and sit ins
It's human rights for everybody, there is no difference!
Live on and be yourself
When I was at church they taught me something else
If you preach hate at the service those words aren't anointed
That holy water that you soak in has been poisoned
Eb Eb/C
When everyone else is more comfortable remaining voiceless
Cm/Ab Cm7/Bb
Rather than fighting for humans that have had their rights stolen
Eb Gm7
I might not be the same, but that's not important
Ab Eb
No freedom till we're equal, damn right I support it
Eb Eb/C Eb/Ab Eb
Eb Eb/C Ab Eb
(repeat)
And I can't change
Even if I tried
Even if I wanted to
My love
My love
My love
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
Eb Cm
And press play, don't press pause
Ab Eb
Progress, march on
Eb
With the veil over our eyes
Cm
We turn the back on the cause
Ab Eb
Till the day that my uncles can be united by law
When kids are walking 'round the hallway plagued by pain in their heart
A world so hateful some would rather die than be who they are
And a certificate on paper isn't gonna solve it all
But it's a damn good place to start
No law is gonna change us
We have to change us
Whatever god we believe in
We come from the same one
Eb Gm7
Strip away the fear
Ab Eb
Underneath it's all the same love
About time we raised up
Eb Cm Ab Eb
And I can't change
Eb Cm
Even if I tried
Ab Eb
Even if I wanted to
Eb
I'm acting strange
Eb/C Ab Eb
Even if I try
Eb Cm
Even if I wanted to
Ab
My love, my love, my love
(N.C.)
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm
She keeps me warm

Love is patient

Chorus: Bb / Bb7 / Cm F Cm F Bb / Cm F Bb /
You wanna fuel my fire?
I’m only getting higher
Cause every time you say my name
I get paid
No matter which way you think about it
I know that you’re thinking about me
I know that you’re thinking about me
And that’s all I need
I ain’t got haters
I got people who don’t love me yet
I got everybody right here
that loves me right now
I got some that used to love me
But can’t get over it
I got some that think they really love me
but they don’t know what love is
And I got love for everyone that I’ve loved before
But don’t you dare show up at my door
You wanna fuel my fire?
I’m only getting higher
Cause every time you say my name
I get paid
No matter which way you think about it
I know that you’re thinking about me
I know that you’re thinking about me
And that’s all I need
You wanna fuel my fire?
I’m only getting higher
Cause every time you say my name
I get paid
No matter which way you think about it
I know that you’re thinking about me
I know that you’re thinking about me
But I keep all my energy
G D Em7
A long, long time ago,
Am C Em D
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
G D Em7
And I know if I had my chance,
Am C Em C D
That I could make those people dance and maybe they'd be happy for a while
Em Am Em Am
But February made me shiver, with every paper I'd deliver
C G Am C D
Bad news on the doorstep, I couldn't take one more step
G D Em Am7 D
I can't remember if I cried when I read about his widowed bride
G D Em
Something touched me deep inside
C D7 G C G
The day the music died
CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
VERSE
G Am
Did you write the book of love
C Am Em D
And do you have faith in god above, if the bible tells you so?
G D Em
Do you believe in rock and roll
Am7 C Em A7 D
Can music save your mortal soul and can you teach me how to dance real slow?
Em D Em D
Well I know that you're in love with him 'cuz I saw you dancin' in the gym
C G A7 C D7
You both kicked off your shoes, man I dig those rhythm and blues
G D Em Am C
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck with a pink carnation and a pickup truck
G D Em C D7 G C G
But I knew I was out of luck the day the music died, I started singin'
CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
VERSE
G Am
Now for ten years we've been on our own,
C Am Em D
and moss grows fat on a rolling stone but that's not how it used to be
G D Em
When the jester sang for the king and queen
Am7 C Em A7 D
in a coat he borrowed from James Dean in a voice that came from you and me
Em D Em D
And while the king was looking down, the jester stole his thorny crown
C G A7 C D7
The courtroom was adjourned, no verdict was returned
G D Em Am C
And while Lenin read a book on Marx, the quartet practiced in the park
G D Em C D7 G C G
And we sang dirges in the dark the day the music died, we were singin'
CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
VERSE
G Am
Helter skelter in a summer swelter
C Am Em D
the birds flew off with a fallout shelter, eight miles high and fallin' fast
G D Em
It landed foul on the grass
Am7 C Em A7 D
the players tried for a forward pass, with the jester on the sidelines in
A cast
Em D Em D
Now at halftime there was sweet perfume, while sergeants played a marching
Tune
C G A7 C D7
We all got up to dance, but we never got the chance
G D Em Am C
'Cuz the players tried to take the field, the marching band refused to yield
G D Em C D7 G C G
Do you recall what was the feel the day the music died, we started singin'
CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
VERSE
G Am
And there we were all in one place,
C Am Em D
a generation lost in space, with no time left to start again
G D Em Am7 C
So come on Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack Flash sat on a candle
Em A7 D
stick, 'cuz fire is the devil's only friend
Em D Em D
And as I watched him on the stage, my hands were clenched in fists of rage
C G A7 C D7
No angel born in Hell could bread that Satan's spell
G D Em Am C
And as the flames climbed high into the night to light the sacrificial rite
G D Em C D7 G C G
I saw Satan laughing with delight the day the music died, he was singin'
CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
LAST VERSE
G D Em
I met a girl who sang the blues
Am C Em D
And I asked her for some happy news, but she just smiled and turned away
G D Em
I went down to the sacred store
Am C Em C
Where I'd heard the music years before, but the man there said the music
D
wouldn't play
Em Am Em Am
But in the streets the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poets
dreamed
C G Am C D
But not a word was spoken, the church bells all were broken
G D Em Am7 C D7
And the three men I admire most, the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost
G D Em Am7 D7 G
They caught the last train for the coast the day the music died,
D7
And they were singin'
FINAL CHORUS
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
C D7 G C G
Singin' this will be the day that I die.
