It takes a lot to get me going
And as of yet I'm still not there
So babe come closer in slow motion
Show me all I need's right here

When the space between us grows
Maybe if you could see it from my side
When I'm without you I'm not whole

Touch me slowly break the tension
It's alright just lose control

Am Em
Somewhere there's speaking
Bm C
It's already coming in
Am Em Bm C
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
Am Em
You never could get it
Bm C
Unless you were fed it
Am Em Bm C
Now you're here and you don't know why
//It's all the same pattern here//
But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return
Chorus
Am G
He's everything you want
Bm C
He's everything you need
Am G
He's everything inside of you
D C
That you wish you could be
//Same here again
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why
//Just the same as b4 chorus
You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say
Back to Chorus
//Same as the chorus above
Em C
But you'll just tight
C
And watch it unwind
Em D C
It's only what you're asking for
Em C
And you'll be just fine
Em C
With all of your time
Em D C
It's only what you're waiting for
//Do as the top
Out of the island
Into the highway
Past the places where you might have turned
You never did notice
But you still hide away
The anger of angels who won't return
//Do as the chorus
Chorus
I am everything you want
I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
But I mean nothing to you and I don't know why
And I don't know why
Why
I don't know

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

F#m E D
We were always meant to say goodbye
end with Chorus 2
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

I eat my dinner in my bathtub

Then I go to sex clubs
Watching freaky people getting it on
G Bm
It doesn't make me nervous
D
If anything I'm restless
Yeah I've been around and I've seen it all
[Verse 1]
G Bm
I get home, I got the munchies
D
Binge on all my Twinkies
Throw up in the tub, then I go to sleep
G Bm
And I drank up all my money
D
Tasted kind of lonely
[Chorus]
G
You're gone and I got to stay high
Bm D
All the time to keep you off my mind, oooh, oooh
G Bm D
High all the time to keep you off my mind, oooh, oooh

Spend my days locked in a haze

Trying to forget you babe, I fall back down
G Bm D
Gotta stay high all my life to forget I'm missing you, oooh, oooh
[Verse 3]

Pick up daddy's at the playground

How I spend my day time
Loosen up the frown, make them feel alive

I know my way too easy

You're gone and I got to stay high

All the time to keep you off my mind, oooh, oooh

Standing in my play pretend

Need someone to numb the pain

Well you can tell the world you never was my girl
You can burn my clothes when I am gone
Or you can tell your friends just what a fool I've been
And laugh and joke about me on the phone
You can tell my arms go back to the farm
Or you can tell my feet to hit the floor
Or you can tell my lips to tell my fingertips
They won't be reaching out for you no more
Chorus:
Don't tell my heart my achy breaky heart
I just don't think he'd understand
And if you tell my heart my achy breaky heart
He might blow up and kill this man
You can tell your ma I moved to Arkansas
Or you can tell your dog to bite my leg
Or tell your brother Cliff whos fist can tell my lip
He never really liked me anyway
Or tell your aunt Louise tell anything you please
Myself already knows I'm not ok
Or you can tell my eye to watch out for my mind
It might be walkin' out on me today

Blame it all on my roots / I showed up in boots
And ruined your black tie affair
The last one to know
The last one to show
I was the last one you thought you'd see there
And I saw the surprise
And the fear in his eyes
When I took his glass of champagne
I toasted you
Said honey we may be through
But you'll never hear me
Complain
[Chorus] A A Bm E A A A A7 Bm E A A
'Cause I got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
'Cause I've got friends
In low places
[Verse 2] A Bbdim7 Bm Bm E E7 A A A Bbdim7 Bm Dm E E7 E E7
Well, I guess I was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, I've been there before
Everything's alright
I'll just say goodnight
And I'll show myself to the door
Hey, I didn't mean
To cause a big scene
Just give me an hour and then
I'll be as high as that Ivory tower That you're livin'in
[Chorus]

This Pattern can be played through the entire song. You can use a pick pattern or
strum pattern, if you like. Whatever sounds best to you! The original idea was
from Jespersloth, I just changed the D#sus to a regular d# because I think it
sounds better. Enjoy!!!
Fm C#
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
These battle

I pray we never undo

I'm swearing if I go there now

I can change your mind, turn it all around

And I know that I'm drunk but I'll say the words

And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred

Dial her number and confess to her

I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing

So I stumble there, along the railings and the fences

Em F
If she sees how much I'm hurting

She'll take me back for sure

VERSE
Am
It's been three weeks since you've been looking for your friend
Gm
The one you let hit it and never called you again
Am
'Member when he told you he was 'bout the Benjamins
Gm
You act like you ain't hear him then gave him a little trim
Am
To begin, how you think you really gon' pretend
Gm
Like you wasn't down then you called him again
Am Gm
Plus when you give it up so easy you ain't even fooling him
Am
If you did it then, then you probably f*** again
Gm
Talking out your neck sayin' you're a Christian
A Muslim sleeping with the gin
Am
Now that was the sin that did Jezebel in
Gm
Who you gon' tell when the repercussions spin
Am
Showing off your ass 'cause you're thinking it's a trend
Gm
Girlfriend, let me break it down for you again
Am
You know I only say it 'cause I'm truly genuine
Gm
Don't be a hardrock when you're really a gem
Am
Babygirl, respect is just a minimum
Gm
s f***ed up and you still defending them
Am
Now Lauryn is only human
Gm
Don't think I haven't been through the same predicament
Am Gm
Let it sit inside your head like a million women in Philly, Penn.
Am
It's silly when girls sell their soul because it's in
Gm
Look at where you be in hair weaves like Europeans
Fake nails done by Koreans
Am Gm Am Gm
Come again, come again, come again, come again

The second verse is dedicated to the men

Him and his men come in the club like hooligans
Gm
Don't care who they offend popping yang like you got yen
Am
Let's not pretend, they wanna pack pistol by they waist men
Gm
Cristal by the case men, still in they mother's basement
Am
The pretty face, men claiming that they did a bid men
Gm
Need to take care of their three and four kids men
Am
They facing a court case when the child's support late
Gm
Money taking, heart breaking now you wonder why women hate men
Am
The sneaky silent men the punk domestic violence men
Gm
The quick to shoot the semen stop acting like boys and be men

And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit right to the top,
Don't hold back

Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain check

I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night...

It's time to begin, isn't it?

So this is where you fell, and I am left to sell

Listen to the song for rhythm and the layout of the song. Ive tried to tab out the
as best as i could and hope its clear enough to understand.
Lyrics-
said a hip hop
the hippie the hippie
to the hip hip hop, a you dont stop the rock it
to the bang bang boogie, say up jumped the boogie
to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat
now what you hear is not a test--i'm rappin to the beat
and me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
see i am wonder mike and i like to say hello
to the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
but first i gotta bang bang the boogie to the boogie
say up jump the boogie to the bang bang boogie
let's rock, you dont stop
rock the riddle that will make your body rock
well so far you've heard my voice but i brought two friends along
and next on the mike is my man hank
come on, hank, sing that song
check it out, i'm the c-a-s-an-the-o-v-a
and the rest is f-l-y
ya see i go by the code of the doctor of the mix
and these reasons i'll tell ya why
ya see i'm six foot one and i'm tons of fun
and i dress to a T
ya see i got more clothes than muhammad ali and i dress so viciously
i got bodyguards, i got two big cars
that definitely ain't the wack
i got a lincoln continental and a sunroof cadillac
so after school, i take a dip in the pool
which really is on the wall
i got a color tv so i can see
the knicks play basketball
hear me talkin bout checkbooks, credit cards
more money than a sucker could ever spend
but i wouldnt give a sucker or a bum from the rucker
not a dime till i made it again
everybody go, hotel motel
what you're gonna do today (say what)
cause i'm going to get a fly girl, gonna get some spanking drive off off in a fresh oj.
go hotel, motel, holiday inn
say if your girl starts actin up, then you take her friend
master g, my mellow
its on you so what you gonna do
well it's on n on n on on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
i said m-a-s, t-e-r, a g with a double e
i said i go by the unforgettable name
of the man they call the master gee
well, my name is known all over the world
by all the foxy ladies and the pretty girls
i'm goin down in history
as the baddest rapper there ever could be
now i'm feelin the highs and ya feelin the lows
the beat starts gettin into your toes
ya start poppin ya fingers and stompin your feet
and movin your body while youre sittin in your seat
and the damn ya start doin the freak
i said damn, right outta your seat
then ya throw your hands high in the air
ya rockin to the rhythm, shake your derriere
ya rockin to the beat without a care
with the sureshot m.c.s for the affair
now, im not as tall as the rest of the gang
but i rap to the beat just the same
i dot a little face and a pair of brown eyes
all im here to do ladies is hypnotize
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on
like a hot buttered a pop da pop da pop dibbie dibbie
pop da pop pop ya dont dare stop
come alive yall gimme what ya got
i guess by now you can take a hunch
and find that i am the baby of the bunch
'but that's okay i still keep in stride
cause all i'm here to do is just wiggle your behind
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on

and guess what america we love you
cause ya rocked and a rolled with so much soul
you could rock till you're a hundred and one years old
i dont mean to brag i don't mean to boast
but we like hot butter on our breakfast toast
rock it up a baby bubbah
baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang da boogie
to the beat beat, its so unique
come on everybody and dance to the beat
a hip hop
the hippie the hippie to the
hip hip hop, a you dont stop rock it
rock it out baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang
the boogie to the boogie da beat
i said i cant wait til the end of the week
when im rappin to the rhythm of a groovy beat
and attempt to raise your body heat
just blow your mind so that you can't speak
and do a thing bout a rock and shuffle your feet
and let it change up to a dance called the freak
and when ya finally do come in to your rhythmic beat
rest a little while so ya don't get weak
i know a man named hank
he has more rhymes than a serious bank
so come on hank sing that song
to the rhythm of the boogie da bang bang da bong
well, im imp the dimp the ladies pimp
the women fight for my delight
but im the grandmaster with the three mc's
that shock the house for the young ladies
and when you come inside, into the front
you do the freak, spank, and do the bump
and when the sucker mc's try to prove a point
[ Tab from- http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-sugarhill-gang/128630.html ]
we're treacherous trio, we're the serious joint
a from sun to sun and from day to day
i sit down and write a brand new rhyme
because they say that miracles never cease
i've created a devastating masterpiece
i'm gonna rock the mike till you cant resist
everybody, i say it goes like this
well i was comin home late one dark afternoon
a reporter stopped me for a interview
she said she's heard stories and she's heard fables
that i'm vicious on the mike and the turntable
this young reporter i did adore
so i rocked some vicious rhymes like i never did before
she said damn fly guy im in love with you
the casanova legend must have been true
i said by the way baby what's your name
said i go by the name of lois lane
and you could be my boyfiend you surely can
just let me quit my boyfriend called superman
i said he's a fairy i do suppoose
flyin through the air in pantyhose
he may be very sexy or even cute
but he looks like a sucker in a blue and red suit
i said you need a man who's got finesse
and his whole name across his chest
he may be able to fly all through the night
but can he rock a party til the early light
he cant satisfy you with his little worm
but i can bust you out with my super sperm
i go do it, i go do it, i go do it, do it , do it
an i'm here an i'm there i'm big bang hank, im everywhere
just throw your hands up in the air
and party hardy like you just dont care
let's do it don't stop yall a tick a tock yall you don't stop
go hotel motel what you gonna do today (say what)
im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spank drive off in a def oj
everybody go hotel motel holiday inn
you say if your girl starts actin up then you take her friend
i say skip, dive, what can i say
i can't fit em all inside my oj
so i just take half and bust them out
i give the rest to master gee so he could shock the house
it was twelve o'clock one friday night
i was rockin to the beat and feelin all right
everybody was dancin on the floor
doin all the things they never did before
and then this fly fly girl with a sexy lean
she came into the bar, she came into the scene
she traveled deeper inside the room
all the fellas checked out her white sasoons
she came up to the table, looked into my eyes
then she turned around and shook her behind
so i said to myself, its time for me to release
my vicious rhyme i call my masterpiece
and now people in the house this is just for you
a little rap to make you boogaloo
now the group ya hear is called phase two
and let me tell ya somethin we're a hell of a crew
once a week we're on the street
just a-cuttin' the jams and making it free
for you to party ya got to have the movies
so we'll get right down and give you the groove
for you to dance you gotta get hype
so we'll get right down for you tonight
now the system's on and the girls are there
ya definitely have a rockin affair
but let me tell ya somethin there's still one fact
and to have a party ya got to have a rap
so when the party's over you're makin it home
and tryin to sleep before the break of dawn
and while ya sleepin ya start to dream
and thinkin how ya danced on the disco scene
my name appears in your mind
yeah, a name you know that was right on time
it was phase two just a doin a do
rockin ya down cause ya know we could
to the rhythm of the beat that makes ya freak
come alive girls get on your feet
to the rhythm of the beat to the beat the beat
to the double beat beat that it makes ya freak
to the rhythm of the beat that says ya go on
on n on into the break of dawn
now i got a man comin on right now
he's guaranteed to throw down
he goes by the name of wonder mike
come on wonder mike do what ya like
i say a can of beer that's sweeter than honey
like a millionaire that has no money
like a rainy day that is not wet
like a gamblin fiend that does not bet
like dracula with out his fangs
like the boogie to the boogie without the boogie bang
like collard greens that dont taste good
like a tree that's not made out of wood
like goin up and not comin down
is just like the beat without the sound no sound
to the beat beat, ya do the freak
everybody just rock and dance to the beat
have you ever went over a friends house to eat
and the food just ain't no good
i mean the macaroni's soggy the peas are mushed
and the chicken tastes like wood
so you try to play it off like you think you can
by sayin that youre full
and then your friend says momma he's just being polite
he ain't finished uh uh that's bull
so your heart starts pumpin and you think of a lie
and you say that you already ate
and your friend says man there's plenty of food
so you pile some more on your plate
while the stinky foods steamin your mind starts to dreamin
of the moment that it's time to leave
and then you look at your plate and your chickens slowly rottin
into something that looks like cheese
oh so you say that's it i got to leave this place
i dont care what these people think
im just sittin here makin myself nauseous
with this ugly food that stinks
so you bust out the door while its still closed
still sick from the food you ate
and then you run to the store for quick relief
from a bottle of kaopectate
and then you call your friend two weeks later
to see how he has been
and he says i understand about the food
baby bubbah but we're still friends
with a hip hop the hippie to the hippie
the hip hip a hop a you don't stop the rockin
to the bang bang boogie
say up jump the boogie to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
i say hank can ya rock
can ya rock to the rhythm that just don't stop
can ya hip me to the shoobie doo
i said come on make the make the people move
i go to the halls and then ring the bell
because i am the man with the clientele
and if ya ask me why i rock so well
a big bang, i got clientele
and from the time i was only six years old
i never forgot what i was told
it was the best advice that i ever had
it came from my wise dear old dad
he said sit down punk i wanna talk to you
and don't say a word until im through
now there's a time to laugh a time to cry
a time to live and a time to die
a time to break and a time to chill
to act civilized or act real ill
but whatever ya do in your lifetime
ya never let a mc steal your rhyme
so from six to six til this very day
ill always remember what he had to say
so when the sucker mc's try to chump my style
i let them know that i'm versatile
i got style finesse and a little black book
that's filled with rhymes and i know you wanna look
but the thing that separates you from me
and that's called originality
because my rhymes are on from what you heard
i didnt even bite and not a go word
and i say a little more later on tonight
so the suker mc's can bite all night
a tick a tock yall a beat beat yall
a lets rock yall ya don't stop
ya go hotel motel whatcha gonna do today (say what)
ya say im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spankin
drive off in a def oj
everybody go hotel motel holiday inn
ya say if your girl starts actin up then you take her friends
a like that yall to the beat yall
beat beat yall ya don't stop
a master gee my mellow
its on you so whatcha gonna do
well like johnny carson on the late show
a like frankie croker in stereo
well like the barkay's singin holy ghost

its like my man captain sky
whose name he earned with his super sperm
we rock and we don't stop
get off yall im here to give you whatcha got
to the beat that it makes you freak
and come alive girl get on your feet
a like a perry mason without a case
like farrah fawcett without her face

like movin your body so ya dont know how

like comin alive to the master gee
the brother who rocks so viciously
i said the age of one my life begun
at the age of two i was doin the do
at the age of three it was you and me
rockin to the sounds of the master gee
at the age of four i was on the floor
givin all the freaks what they bargained for
at the age of five i didnt take no jive
with the master gee its all the way live
at the age of six i was a pickin up sticks
rappin to the beat my stick was fixed
at the age of seven i was rockin in heaven don'tcha know i went off
i gotta run on down to the beat you see
gettin right on down makin all the girls
just take of their clothes to the beat the beat
to the double beat beat that makes you freak

I hope the following will assist!
OK. The numbers on the strings should relate to which finger to use -
't' is thumb, 1,2,3 are 1st, 2nd, 3rd fingers respectively!
So the D chord (xx0232) picked like this
E-------------------|
B-----2-------2-----|
G---1---1---1---1---|
D-t-------t---------|t...... etc
A-------------------|
E-------------------|
The A chord (x02220) like this! nb finger '3' can be left out or played simultaneously with '2'!
E---------------------------|
B-------3-----------3-------|
G-----2---2-------2---2-----|
D---1-------1---1-------1---|
A-t-----------t-------------|t....etc
E---------------------------|
...and so on for the other chords.

What ya got to say
C#m
Came in from a rainy thursday
E B
on the avenue
C3m E B
thought I heard you talking softly
C#m
I turned on the lights, the tv
E B
and the radio
C#m E B
still I can't escape the ghost of you
C#m
What is happened to it all?
G#m
Crazy, some say
B E
Where is the life that I recognize?
E
gone away
B F#m
But I won't cry for yesterday
A
there's an ordinary world
E B
somehow I have to find
B F#m
And as I try to make my way
A
to the ordinary world
A E
I will learn to survive
(The rest of the song is the same as above!)
Passion or coincidence
once prompted you to say
Pride will tear us both apart
Well now pride's gone out the window
cross the rooftops, runaway
left me in the vacuum of my heart
What is happening to me?
Crazy, some say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away
But I won't cry for yesterday
there's an ordinary world
somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
to the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Papers in the roadside
tell of suffering and greed
feared today, forgot tomorrow
ooh, here beside the news
of holy war and holy need
ours is just a little sorrowed talk
(Just blowing away)
And I don't cry for yesterday
there's an ordinary world
somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
to the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
every world is my world
(I will learn to survive)
any world is my world
(I will learn to survive)
any world is my world
every world is my world
[DJ Drama]
You see I been waiting
Waiting on that time
Feel me if you been waiting on yours
That moment…Is close
[Hook- Jeremih]
Tired of living day to day like everything is alright
Just waiting on that moment
Waiting on my moment

[Verse]
Am G C F
I thought that I've been hurt before
Am G C F
But no one's ever left me quite this sore
Am G C F
Your words cut deeper than a knife
Am G F
Now I need someone to breathe me back to life
F G
Got a feeling that I'm going under
Am G
But I know that I'll make it out alive
F G
If I quit calling you my lover
Am
Move on
[Chorus]
Am G
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
C
I'm shaking, falling onto my knees
F Am G
And now that I'm without your kisses
C F
I'll be needing stitches
Am
I'm tripping over myself,
G C
I'm aching begging you to come help
F Am G
And now that I'm without your kisses
C F
I'll be needing stitches
[Verse]
Am G C F
Just like a moth drawn to a flame
Am G C F
Oh, you lured me in, I couldn't sense the pain
Am G C F
Your bitter heart cold to the touch
Am G
Now I'm gonna reap what I sow
C F
I'm left seeing red on my own
F G
Got a feeling that I'm going under
Am G
But I know that I'll make it out alive
F G
If I quit calling you my lover
Am
Move on
[Chorus]

You watch me bleed until I can't breathe

I'm aching begging you to come help

I'll be needing stitches

Needle and the thread,

Gotta get you out of my head

Gonna wind up dead

Gotta get you out of my head, get you out of my head

But you don't really care for music, do you?

The minor fall, the major lift

The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[Verse 2]
G Em
Your faith was strong, but you needed proof
G Em
You saw her bathing on the roof
C D G D
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
G C D
She tied you to a kitchen chair
Em C
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
D B7 Em
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
C Em C G D G D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[Verse 3]
G Em
You say I took the name in vain
G Em
I don't even know the name
C D G D
But if I did, well really, what's it to ya?
G C D
There's a blaze of light in every word
Em C
It doesn't matter which you heard
D B7 Em
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
C Em C G D G D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[Verse 4]
G Em
I did my best, it wasn't much
G Em
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
C D G D
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya
G C D
And even though it all went wrong
Em C
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
D B7 Em
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
[Outro]

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
Verse 2
Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
So if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

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

Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand
[Instrumental]

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

Welcome to my life

Welcome to my life.
Dm C
This is the time when you need a friend
Bb F
You just need someone near
Dm C
I'm not looking forward to the night
Bb F
I'll spend thinking of you when you're not here
Am Bb
How many times will I think about the things
F
I'd like to do
Am Bb
Always denied the right to live my life the way I want
G C
I want to share it with you
Chorus-
Dm
Close your eyes
C Bb
I want to ride the skies in my sweet dreams
Dm
Close your eyes
C Bb
I want to see you tonight in my sweet dreams
I'll think of your kiss as the days roll by
And I'll write the words you love
What I can't say in a letter
Will just have to wait till I get home
There's not much time to tell you
Half the things I should
Only that I'm so glad I fell in love with you
And I'd do it again if I could
Chorus
Dm C Dm
Sleep like a child resting deep
C Dm
You don't know what you give me I keep
Bb C Dm C Bb
For these moments alone

Original Key E B C#m A Jade's Key G D Em C
Verse 1: A few days before he turned 80
He was sittin' out back in a rocker
He said, "What you been up to lately?"
I told him, "Chasing a dollar"
And in between sips of coffee
He poured this wisdom out
Said, "If you want my two cents on making a dollar count
Chorus: Buy dirt
Find the one you can't live without
Get a ring, let your knee hit the ground
Do what you love but call it work
And throw a little money in the plate at church
Send your prayers up and your roots down deep
Add a few limbs to your family tree
And watch their pencil marks
And the grass in the yard all grow up"
'Cause the truth about it is
It all goes by real quick
You can't buy happiness
But you can buy dirt
Verse 2: Before you get caught on that ladder
Let me tell you what it's all about
Find you a few things that matter
That you can put a fence around
And then he laid it out
Chorus
