Walked in expecting you'd be late

But you got here early

And you stand and wait

I walk to you
G
You pulled my chair out and helped me in
G
And you don't know how nice that is
C
But I do
C D
And you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
Em7 G
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny ‘cause he never did

I've been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does

You had a lot of crooks tryna steal your heart
BMaj7
Never really had luck, couldn't never figure out

You had a lot of moments that didn't last forever

EMaj7
How to love

Verse
B
For a second you were here
Why you over there?
BMaj7
Its hard not to stare, the way you moving your body
EMaj7
Like you never had a love
Emin
Never had a love
B
When you was just a young'un your looks but so precious
BMaj7
But now your grown up
Emaj7
So fly its like a blessing but you can't have a man look at you for 5 seconds
Emin
Without you being insecure
B
You never credit yourself so when you got older
BMaj7
It's seems like you came back 10 times over
Emaj7
Now you're sitting here in this damn corner
Emin
Looking through all your thoughts and looking over your shoulder
Chorus
Verse 2
B
For a second you were here Why you over there?
BMaj7
Its hard not to stare the way you moving your body
Emaj7
Like you never had a love
Emin
Had a love
B
You had a lot of dreams that transform to visions
BMaj7
The fact that you saw the world affected all your decisions
Emaj7
But it wasn't your fault
Wasn't in your intentions
Emin
To be the one here talking to me
Be the one listening
B
But I admire your poppin bottles and dippin'
Bmaj7
Just as much as you admire bartending and stripping
Emaj7
Baby, so don't be mad
Nobody else trippin
Emin
You see a lot of crooks and the crooks still crook
Chorus

LYRICS
**********
Call up, ring once, hang up the phone
To let me know you made it home
Don't want nothing to be wrong with part-time lover
If she's with me I'll blink the lights
To let you know tonight's the night
For me and you my part-time lover
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
If I'm with friends and we should meet
Just pass me by, don't even speak
Know the word's discreet when part-time lovers
But if there's some emergency
Have a male friend to ask for me
So then she won't peek its really you my part-time lover
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
We are undercover passion on the run
Chasing love up against the sun
We are strangers by day, lovers by night
Knowing it's so wrong, but feeling so right
I've got something that I must tell
Last night someone rang our doorbell
And it was not you my part-time lover
And then a man called our exchange
But didn't want to leave his name
I guess that two can play the game
Of part-time lovers
You and me, part-time lovers
But, she and he, part-time lovers

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

Showing off your ass 'cause you're thinking it's a trend
Gm
Girlfriend, let me break it down for you again

They facing a court case when the child's support late

Money taking, heart breaking now you wonder why women hate men

Intro-
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
Then have no fear, the crowd is here
And the lights are on
And they wanna show oh oh oh oh, yeah
Verse 1-
Yeah, uh
A fresh cool young Lu'
Tryna' catch his microphone check 2, 1, 2
Wanna' believe my own hype but it's too untrue
The world brought me to my knees, what have you brung you?
Did you improve on the design? Did you do somethin' new?
Well ya' name ain't on the guest list, who brung you?
YOU! The more famous person you come through
And the sexy lady next to you, you come too
And then it hit me
Standin' outside of heaven waitin' for god to come and get me
I'm too uncouth
Unschooled to the rules and too gum shoe
Too much of a new comer and too un-cool
Like Shadow and Lavelle, I battle wit' it well
Tho I need holiday like lady who sung Blue
Go back, whatever you did you undo
Heavy as heaven
The devil on me, two ton's too
Chorus-
If you are what you say you are, a superstar
Then have no fear, the camera's is here
And the microphone's
And they wanna' know oh oh oh oh, yeah
Verse 2-
And ya' better wear ya' shaaades
The spotlights here can burn holes through the staaage
Down to the basement pass the Indian graves
Where the dinosaurs laid
Then out through shinin', nearly miss the airliners
Magnified times five, 'less its pointed at the ryhmer
Ricochets off the moon and sets the forest ablaaaze
Now that's important to say
'Cause even with all that most of us don't want it to faaade
We want it to braid, meaning we want it to grow
Meaning we want it to staaay
Like the governor called and he told him to waaait
Un-strap him from the chair and put him back in his caaage
The audience ain't phased
And they ain't gon' clap and they ain't gon' praise
They want everything back that they've paid
'Cause they've been waitin' since ten to see the lights get dim
[Chorus]
Verse 3-
So chauffeur chauffeur come and take me away
'Cause I've been standin' in this line for like five whole days
Me and security ain't getting' along
And when I got to the front, they told me all of the tickets were gone
So just take me home where the mood is mellow
And the roses are grown, M&Ms are yellow
And the light bulbs around my mirror don't flicker
Everybody gets a nice autograph picture
One for you and one for your sister
Who had to work tonight but is an avid listener
Every songs her favorite song and mics don't feedback
All the reviewers say You need to go and see that
And everybody claps 'cause everybody is pleased
And then they all take the stage and start performin' for me
Like, ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha, ha
Verse 1: A
I have climbed highest mountains I have run through the fields
Dsus2 A
only to be with you, only to be with you
A
I have run, I have crawled
Dsus2 A
I have scaled these city walls, these city walls only to be with you
[Chorus 1] E Dsus2 A
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
[Verse 2] A
I have kissed honey lips Felt the healing in her fingertips
Dsus2 A
It burned like fire, this burning desire
A
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of the devil
Dsus2 A
It was warm in the night, I was cold as a stone
[Chorus 2]
[Verse 3] A
I believe in the kingdom come then all the colors they will
Dsus2
bleed into one, bleed into one
A
But yes I'm still running
A
You broke the bonds and you loosed the chains
Dsus2
carried the cross of, of my shame, of my shame
A
You know I believe it

Intro- G, Cadd9
Verse 1-
G Cadd9
We both lie silently still, in the dead of the night.
G Cadd9
Although we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside.
G Cadd9
Was it something I said, or something I did,
G Cadd9
did my words not come out right?
D C
Though I tried not to hurt you, though I tried, but I guess that's why they say
CHORUS
G Cadd9
Every rose has its thorn.
G Cadd9
Just like every night has its dawn.
G D C
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song.
G C
Every rose has its thorn.
[Bridge and solo - I just play G-Cadd9-G-Cadd9
Verse 2-
G Cadd9
Listen to our favorite song, playing on the radio.
G Cadd9
Well the DJ says loves a game of easy come and easy go.
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
But I wonder, does he know, has he ever felt like this.
D C
Well I know that you'd be here right now if I
coulda let you know somehow, I guess
[Chorus]
Em D C G
Though it's been awhile now, I can still feel so much pain.
Em D C G
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals, but the scar, that scar remains
G-Cadd9
Verse 3-
G Cadd9
I know I coulda saved our love that night if I'd known what to say.
G Cadd9
Instead of making love we both made our separate ways.
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
And now I hear you've found somebody new, and that I never meant that much to you.
D C
To hear that tears me up inside, and to see you cuts me like a knife, I guess
D
D A
You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset
Em
She's going off about something that you said
G
'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do
D A
I'm in the room it's a typical Tuesday night
Em
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like

And she'll never know your story like I do
Em G
But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts
D A
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers

If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
A Em
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
G D
You belong with me, you belong with me
D A
Walkin' the streets with you and your worn out jeans
Em
I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
G
Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself
Hey isn't this easy
D A
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
Em
I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down
You say you're fine, I know you better then that
G
Hey whatcha doing with a girl like that
Em G
She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
D A
Shes cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Em G
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
A
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time
D
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
A Em
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
G
You belong with me
D
Standing by and waiting at your back door
A Em
All this time how could you not know, baby
G
You belong with me, you belong with me
D A Em G
Em
Oh I remember you drivin' to my house
G
In the middle of the night
D
I'm the one who makes you laugh
A
When you know you're about to cry
Em
And I know your favorite songs
G
And you tell me about your dreams
D
Think I know where you belong
A
Think I know it's with me

Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you

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

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]

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)
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 )
(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,

Outro - G - C
[Verse] Em G7 C B7
You know I've heard it said there's beauty in distortion
By some people who've withdrawn to find their heads
Now they say that there is humor in misfortune
Am7 D G /
You know I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead
[Chorus] C G Am7 G
Why am I fighting to live if I 'm just living to fight?
D7 Em Am7 D7
Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothing in sight?
G C B7 Em
Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
C G Am7 G
Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?
[Verse] Em G7 C B7
Bey, you know some people say that values are subjective
But they're just speaking words that someone else has said
And so they live and fight and kill with no objective
Am7 D G /
Sometimes it's hard to tell the living from the dead
[Chorus]
[Verse] Em G7 C B7
Yeah, you know I used to weave my words into confusion
And so I hope you'll understand me when I 'm through
You know I used to live my life as an illusion
But reality will make my dreams come true
[Chorus] C G Am7 G
So I'll keep fighting to live till there's no reason to fight
D7 Em Am7 D7
And I'll keep trying to see until the end is in sight
G C B7 Em
You know I'm trying to give so c'mon give me a try
C G Am7 G
You know I'm dying to live until I'm ready to die.

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

F C D# A#
[Verse]
F C
A lonely mother gazing out of her window
D# A#
Staring at a son that she just can't touch
F C
If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side
D# A#
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
F C
But all the praying just ain't helping at all
D# A#
'cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble
F C
So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how
D# A#
Another body laying cold in the gutter
Listen to me
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to
F
I know that you're gonna have it your way
C
Or nothing at all
D# A#
But I think you're moving too fast
[Verse]
F C
Little precious has a natural obsession
D# A#
For temptation but he just can't see
F C
She gives him loving that his body can't handle
D# A#
But all he can say is baby it's good to me
F C
One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror
D# A#
But he doesn't recognize his own face
F C
His health is fading and he doesn't know why
D# A#
3 letters took him to his final resting place
Y'all don't hear me?
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to
F
I know that you're gonna have it your way
C
Or nothing at all
D# A#
But I think you're moving too fast
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to
F
I know that you're gonna have it your way
C
Or nothing at all
D# A#
But I think you're moving too fast
Come on, come on
[Verse]
F
I seen a rainbow yesterday
C
But too many storms have come and gone
D#
Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray
Is it because my life is ten shades of gray?
A#
I pray all ten fade away
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days
F
And like His promise is true
C
Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew
D#
To bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies
A#
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries
F
My only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope
C
With such an endurin' pain
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain
D#
Who's to blame for tootin' 'caine into your own vein?
A#
What a shame you shoot and aim for someone else's brain
F
You claim the insane and name this day in time
C
For fallin' prey to crime
I say the system got you victim to your own mind
D#
Dreams are hopeless aspirations
A#
In hopes of comin' true believe in yourself the rest is up to me and you
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to
F
I know that you're gonna have it your way
C
Or nothing at all
D# A#
But I think you're moving too fast
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to

I know that you're gonna have it your way
C
Or nothing at all

But I think you're moving too fast

Verse 1:
You have my heart,
and we'll never be worlds apart /
Maybe in magazines,
but you'll still be my star /
Baby, 'cause in the dark /
You can't see shiny cars /
And that's when you need me there /
With you I'll always share
Chorus
When the sun shines,
we'll shine together /
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend /
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever /
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella /
You can stand under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh,
Verse 2:
These fancy things
will never come in between
You're part of my entity,
here for infinity
When the world has took its part
When the world has dealt its cards
If the hand is hard,
together we'll mend your heart

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

Gmaj7 Em7
Some people live for the fortune
Am7 D7
Some people live just for the fame
Gmaj7 G#dim
Some people live for the power yeah
Am7 D7
Some people live just to play the game
Pre Chorus: Gmaj7 Am7 Bm7 Am7
Some people think that the physical things /
Define what's within /
I've been there before / But that life's a bore /
So full of the superficial
Chorus: Cmaj7 - Bm7 - Am7 - Gmaj7
Some people want it all / But I don't want nothing at all /
If it ain't you baby / If I ain't got you baby /
Some people want diamond rings / Some just want everything /
But everything means nothing / If I ain't got you
[Verse] Gmaj7 Em7 Am7 D7
Some people search for a fountain /
Promises forever young
Gmaj7 G#dim Am7 D7
Some people need three dozen roses /
And that's the only way to prove you love them
Pre Chorus: Gmaj7 Am7 Bm7 Am7
Hand me the world on a silver platter /
And what good would it be /
No one to share /
No one who truly cares for me
Chorus: Cmaj7 - Bm7 - Am7 - Gmaj7
Some people want it all / But I don't want nothing at all /
If it ain't you baby / If I ain't got you baby /
Some people want diamond rings / Some just want everything /
But everything means nothing / If I ain't got you

New York
Verse 1-
New York City makes dreams come true
What a perfect place for my musical debut
I hear the city never sleeps it just keeps rolling on through
So on to Gotham City on a super jet plane I flew
Verse 2
Anticipation and uncertainty, try to get the best of me
This challenge I'm about to face is laced with millions just like me
Who travel from the ends of end to get to where I want to be
Putting all they've got onto one hot shot to prove themselves relentlessly
Pre-chorus-
Rewind, cause I can't focus on these trivial things
Gotta keep my mind in motion, take whatever it brings
Chorus-
Here I am in NYC, the capitol of the world
Far from my hometown Houston, far for this Texas girl
Here I am in Empire City
I'm on top of the world
New York, New York
New York
Verse 3-
Sure ain't pleasant Texas, no friendly passer-bys
Just stressed out suits stressing 'bout their push and go lives
No driving slow on Sunday Mornings or watching clouds go by
Just busy streets with crazy cabbies fighting over traffic lights
Verse 4-
You'd think a Texas Tornado was on a path of destruction
The way the public scurries home after the daily grind function
Some ease the tension with a PBR, the cheapest they make
Some drop mad cash on a bottle now that's extravagant taste
Pre Chorus

Now it's the middle of the night on the open road

And the heater don't work and it's oh so cold

The rhythm of the street sure knocks you off your feet

You didn't know how rock and roll looked, until you caught your sister with the guys from the group
Bb Eb
Halfway home in the parking lot, by the look in her eye she was giving what she got

Woman you're a mess going to die in your sleep
G D
There's blood on my amp and my Les Paul's beat
C
Can't keep you home, you're messing around
G D
My best friend told me you're the best lick in town
Bb Eb
You didn't know that rock and roll burned, so you bought a candle and you lived and you learned

I was riding shotgun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car
D Em
He's got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel
G A
The other on my heart
D Em
I look around, turn the radio down
G A
He says baby is something wrong?
D Em G A
I say nothing I was just thinking how we don't have a song
And he says...
D Em
Our song is the slamming screen door,
G A
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
D Em G
When you're on the phone and you talk real slow
A D
Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Em
Our song is the way you laugh
G A
The first date ‚man, I didn't kiss her, but I should have‚Äù
Em A Em
And when I got home ... before I said amen
D G
Asking God if he could play it again
D Em G A
D Em G A
I was walking up the front porch steps after everything the day
D Em
Had gone all wrong or been trampled on
G A
And lost and thrown away
D Em G A
Got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin' bed
D Em
I almost didn't notice all the roses
G A
And the note that said...
D Em
Our song is the slamming screen door,
G A
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
D Em G
When you're on the phone and you talk real slow
A D
Cause it's late and your mama don't know

Our song is the way you laugh
G A
The first date ‚man, I didn't kiss her, but I should have‚Äù

And when I got home ... before I said amen
D G
Asking God if he could play it again
D Em G A
Da da da da
D Em G A
Em G
I've heard every album, listened to the radio
D A Em
Waited for something to come along
G
That was as good as our song
D Em
Cause our song is the slamming screen door
G A D
Sneaking out late, tapping on his window
Em G
When we're on the phone and he talks real slow
A D
Cause it's late and his mama don't know

Our song is the way he laughs

D Em
I was riding shotgun with my hair undone
G A
In the front seat of his car
D Em
I grabbed a pen and an old napkin
G
And I... wrote down our song
G Em7 Em
Dreams, that's where I have to go
D G
to see your beautiful face anymore
Em7 Em D
I stare at a picture of you and listen to the radio
G Em7 Em
Hope, hope there's a conversation
D G
we both admit we had it good but
Em7 Em D
until then it's alienation, I know, that much is understood
C
And I realize
CHORUS-
G C
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
Em D C
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
G C
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two
Em D C
and finally I'm forced to face the truth
Em D G Em7 Em D G
No matter what they say, I'm not over you
Damn, damn girl you do it well
And I thought you were innocent
You took this heart and put it through hell
But still you're magnificent
I I'm a boomerang doesn't matter how you throw me
Turn around and I'm back in the game
Even better than the old me
But I'm not even close without you
CHORUS-
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two
and finally I'm forced to face the truth.
No matter what I say, I'm not over you
BRIDGE-
D G C Em
And if I had the chance to renew
D G C
You know there isn't a thing I wouldn't do
Em D
I could get back on the right track
G C
But only if you'd be convinced
Em D
So until then
CHORUS-
If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine

Not over you
Not over you
Not over you
