I've gotta take a little time, a little time to think things over.
I better read between the lines, in case I need it when I'm older.
Now, this mountain I must climb feels like the world upon my shoulders.
Through the clouds I see love shine. It keeps me warm as life grows colder.

In my life there's been heartache and pain.

toss a couple milli in the air just for the heck of it
but keep the fives, twentys completely separate
and yeah I'll be in a whole new tax bracket
we in recession but let me take a crack at it
I'll probably take whatevers left and just split it up
so everybody that I love can have a couple bucks
and not a single tummy around me would know what hungry was
eating good sleeping soundly
I know we all have a similar dream
go in your pocket pull out your wallet
and put it in the air and sing

A E Bm D
Baby please, please, please believe me
I don't want you to go, I'm feeling you way more than you know
Cause you, you, you intrigue me
Something I gotta say, without pushing you away
So how do I express, my life is such a mess
If only you knew, if only I could confess
to you, you stole my heart, so why is this so hard
You caught me off-guard, my love is who you are, baby you still are
Tell me why when I tell you how I feel inside,
I feel like I'm doing something wrong
Maybe it's cause of where you are, so near but yet so very far
So come back to where you belong
We've all made mistakes but live and learn just take
Your turn baby return to me
Wasting time with you is all that I want to
I'm dropping all these clues, why can't you see?
That you belong with me
Splashing right through the sea of love
End of story
I, I, I, I wish you would
Think of what you've done is this what you really want
Cause she she she she is no good, not good enough for you
Look at what she's already put you through
Tell me what love really is does it even exist
After the months we've missed, you're still first on my list
I know that this could work, I know we both deserve
I love you more than her, our love is for ever, baby forever
I know you say you need a break so here I will patiently wait
till the day that you come home
Cause I can see us happily, I'll give you all the time you need
I'll give you anything you want
We are both in love so much sometimes it hurts,
I know you feel the way I do
So I will give you time baby, I will let this ride
Cause soon I know you'll realize
That you belong with me
Splashing right through the sea of love
End of story
[Verse 1] D Dsus D Bm
Don't you feel it growing, day by day / People are getting ready for the news
A G D G/D
Some are happy, some are sad / Oh, we're gonna let the music play
What the people need is a way to make 'em smile
It ain't so hard to do if you know how
Gotta get a message, get it on through
Lord, now mamma, don't you ask me why
[Chorus] Bm7 G
Oohoh ooh, listen to the music
Oohoh ooh, listen to the music
Oohoh ooh, listen to the music

All the time
[Verse 2]
Well I know, you know better, everything I say
Leave me in the country for a day
We'll be happy and we'll dance
Oh, we're gonna dance the blues away
And if I'm feeling good to you and you're feeling good to me
There ain't nothing we can't do or say
Feeling good, feeling fine,
Oh baby, let the music play
[Chorus]
[Bridge]

Like a lazy flowing river, surrounding castles in the sky

And the crowd is growing bigger,
Listening for the happy sounds
Gonna have to let them fly.

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

Loving you is Cherry Pie
'Cause you know that baby I-

Sweet Emotion
Verse
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination /
I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man /
For whatever that means
Pre-chorus
And so I cry sometimes When I'm lying in bed just to get it all out /
What's in my head And I, I am feeling a little peculiar /
And so I wake in the morning And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high /
And I scream from the top of my lungs "What's going on?"
Chorus
And I say, "Hey-ey-ey-ey" “Hey-ey-ey I said, "Hey, what's going on?"
Verse
And I try,
oh my God do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray,
oh my God do I pray
I pray every single day For a revolution
Pre-chorus
Chorus
And I say, "Hey-ey-ey-ey" “Hey-ey-ey I said, "Hey, what's going on?"

it's a death row pardoned two minutes too late...

traffic jams when you're already late
a no smoking sign on your cigarette break

Almost made me cry

There was something in the air that night

The stars were bright, Fernando

Prechorus- |A |A |C |D |
Here are the words
It's getting so lonely inside this bed
Don't know if I should lick my wounds
Or say woe is me instead
And there's an aching inside my head
It's telling me I'm better off alone
But after midnight, morning will come
And the day will see if you will get some
They say that girl ya know she act too tough tough tough
Well it's 'til I turn off the light, turn off the light
They say that girl ya know she act so rough rough rough
Well it's 'til I turn off the light, turn off the light
And I say follow me follow me follow me down down down down
'Til you see all my dreams
Not everything in this magical world is what it seems
I looked above the other day
Cuz I think I'm good and ready for a change
I live my life by the moon
If it's high play it low
If it's harvest go slow
And if it's full, then go
But after midnight, morning will come
And the day will see if you will get some
Chorus
I'm searching for things that I just cannot see
Why don't you don't you don't you come and be with me
I pretend to be cool with me, want to believe
That I can do it on my own without my heart on my sleeve
I'm running, I'm running, catch up with me life
Where is the love that I'm looking to find
It's all in me, can't you see
I can see, can't you see
I can see, why can't you see
It's all in me!
Chorus
Where is your logic
Who do you need
Where can you turn in your delicate time of need
Where is your logic
Who do you need
Where can you turn in your delicate time of need

Something I would never lose Something somebody stole

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)

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

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

I'll Never Say I Never Loved You
Chorus-
F C Em Am 2X
We had a good love at a good time
But we were too young to know better
The way that we made love, baby made me cry
Thinking that I'd have you forever
C Am Dm G
And tho I've moved on and you have too
Theres still one thing that I won't do
I'll never say I never loved you
C Am F G
Cause I remember getting scared about getting hurt Cause tour was ending
I didn't want to break your heart but couldn't take another ending
I told you it was over but you came right back and told me no
I wont go
Pre Chorus-
Am Em F G
We'd make it through the good and bad
We have a love the kind that lasts
A love that nobody else has ever had
And baby your my better half

We planned to stay together wait four years before we married
but the date kept moving closer every day and every time we spoke
until i came to visit and you sat my on the wing of the plane.
and you gave me your ring
Bridge
| Am C | G Em | F | F Dm |
And you can try to lie, to hide the feelings now that you found someone else
But you know, as I know, real love is what we felt
not surprised, to find, you're fine, I'm doing much better myself
And I hope that we both live up to the cards we were dealt
