Verse 1: G | Em | C D | G
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No, I won't be afraid
Oh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
RAP
[Chorus]
So darlin', darlin', stand by me / Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand / Stand by me, stand by me
RAP
[Verse 2]
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
RAP
[Chorus]
So darlin', darlin', stand by me / Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand / Stand by me, stand by me
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Woah, just stand now
Oh, stand, stand by me
Verse 1 D Dsus4 D Dsus4 C D

Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on
Why do you see it your way ?
There's a chance that we might fall apart before too long
Chorus:

We can work it out
G A
We can work it out
Verse 2 - D Dsus4 D Dsus4 C D
Think of what you're say - ing

[Intro (whistling)]- Bm7, Em7
[Verse 1]
Bm7
Just shoot for the stars,
If it feels right,
And aim for my heart,
If you feel like,
Em7
You take me away,
And make it okay,
I swear I'll behave.
Bm7
You wanted control,
So we waited,
I put on a show,
Now we're naked,
Em7
You say I'm a kid,
My ego is big,
I don't give a shit...
Bm7
...And it goes like this,
[Chorus]
Take me by the tongue,
And I'll know you.
Kiss me 'til you're drunk,
And I'll show you.
Em7
All the moves like Jagger,
I've got the moves like Jagger,
Bm7
I've got the mooohoohoohves... like Jagger...
I don't need to try to control you,
Look into my eyes and I'll own you.
Em7
With the moves like Jagger,
I've got the moves like Jagger,
Bm7
I've got the mooohoohoohves... like Jagger...
[Verse 2]
Baby it's hard,
When you feel like you're broken and scarred,
Nothing feels right,
But when you're with me,
I make you believe,
That I've got the key.
So get in the car,
We can ride it,
Wherever you want,
Get inside it,
And you want to steer,
But I'm shifting gears,
I'll take it from here...
...And it goes like this...
[Chorus 2]
[Bridge]
You want to know how to make me smile,
Take control, own me just for the night,
But if I share my secret,
You're gonna have to keep it,
Nobody else can see this.
So watch and learn,
I won't show you twice,
Head to toe, ooh baby, rub me right.
But if I share my secret,
You're gonna have to keep it,
Nobody else can see this.
...And it goes like this...

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

What a chill I got
Her kisses are like
A volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say
That she's my buttercup
I'm in love! I'm All Shook Up.
Uh uh huh. Mmm Yeah, yeah.
My tongue gets tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There's only one cure for this soul of mine
That's to have the girl that I love so fine

Gonna mail it to my local DJ.

It's a rockin' rhythm record

I want my jockey to play.
B E
Roll over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again today.
You know, my temperature's risin'
And the jukebox blows a fuse.
My heart's beatin' rhythm
And my soul keeps on singin' the blues.
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news.
I got the rockin' pneumonia,
I need a shot of rhythm and blues.
I think I'm rollin' arthritis
Sittin' down by the rhythm review.
Roll over Beethoven rockin' in two by two.
BRIDGE
E
well, if you feel you like it
E
go get your lover, then reel and rock it.
E A
roll it over and move on up just
A E
a trifle further and reel and rock it, roll it over,
E B
roll over Beethoven rockin' in two by two.
Well, early in the mornin' I'm a-givin' you a warnin'
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes.
Hey diddle diddle, I am playin' my fiddle,
Ain't got nothin' to lose.
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news.
You know she wiggles like a glow worm,
Dance like a spinnin' top.
She got a crazy partner,
Oughta see 'em reel and rock.
Long as she got a dime the music will never stop.
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven,
Roll over Beethoven and dig these rhythm and blues.

Still I talked to your daddy he say,
He said you ain't seen nothing
‘Til you're down on a muffin,
Then you're sure to be a-changin' your ways.

Little skirt climbing way up her knees,
There was three young ladies in the ground gym locker
When I noticed they was lookin' at me.

[Verse] G
When the sun goes down on my side of town
That lonesome feelin' comes to my door
C G
An' the whole world turns... blue
G
There's a rundown bar across the railroad tracks
I got a table for two, way in the back
C G
Where I sit alone... and I think of losin' you
D G
I spend most every night beneath the light of a neon moon
[Chorus] C D
Now, if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams dance in and out of the beams
G
Of a neon moon.
[Verse] G
I think of two young lovers a-runnin' wild and free
I close my eyes and sometimes see
C G
You in the shadows of this smoke-filled room
G
No tellin' how many tears I've sat here and cried
Or how many lies that I've lied
C G
Tellin' my poor heart she'll come back someday
D G
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon
[Chorus]
[Verse] G
The jukebox plays on drink by drink
And the words to ev'ry sad song seem to say what I think
C G
And this hurt inside of me, it ain't never gonna end
D G
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon
[Chorus]
G
When I had you to myself
C
I didn't want you around
Em Bm C G Am D D G
These pretty faces
Always made you stand out in a crowd
G
Then someone picked you from the bunch
C
One glance is all it took
Em Bm C G Am D D G
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look
Chorus-
G D Em D C C/B Am D
Oh baby give me one more chance (To show you that I love you)
Em Bm C G Am D D G
Won't you please let me (Back in your heart)
G D Em D C C/B Am D
Oh darlin' I was blind to let you go (Let you go, baby)
Em Bm C G Am D D G
But now since I see you in his arms
G
(I want you back) Yes I do now
C
(I want you back) Yeah, yeah, yeah
G
(I want you back) nah, nah, nah, nah
Trying to live without your love
Is one long sleepless night
Let me show you girl that I know wrong from right
Ev'ry street you walk on
I leave tear stains on the ground
Following the girl I didn't even want around!
Just let me tell you now
Oh baby, all I need is one more chance
(To show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me (Back in your heart)
Oh darlin' I was blind to let you go
(Let you go, baby)
But now since I see you in his arms

Between you and me

But who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers, now?

Who will save your souls after those lies that you told, boy?

So we pray to as many different gods as there are flowers.

But we call religion our friend.

We're so worried about a-saving our souls, afraid that God will take his

toll, that we forget to begin.

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

It'll still be two days till we say wasabi

Remember those walls I built
Well, baby, they're tumbling down

But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your
halo I got my angel now

It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you break it
It's the risk that I'm taking
I ain't never gonna shut you out
CHORUS
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo (halo) halo I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo I can see your halo (halo) halo
[Verse 2]
Hit me like a ray of sun
Burnin' through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like fallin'
Gravity can't begin
To pull me back to the ground again

E A F#m
Help me get my feet back on the ground, won't you please please help me.
A A6
Help me, help me, ooo.
G#m
You must understand
That the touch of your hand
F#
Makes my pulse react
G#m
That it`s only the thrill
Of boy meeting girl
F#
Opposites attract
E F#
It`s physical
E F#
Only logical
E
You must try to ignore
F#
That it means more than that
B F# E F#
Oh whats love got to do, got to do with it
What`s love but a second hand emotion
What`s love got to do, got to do with it
Who needs a heart
When a heart can be broken
(same break down as verse 1)
It may seem to you
That i`m acting confused
When you`re close to me
If i tend to look dazed
I`ve read it someplace
I`ve got cause to be
There`s a name for it
There`s a phrase that fits
But whatever the reason
You do it for me
CHORUS
Solo-Key Change- Bbm, G#, F#, G#

I`ve been taking on a new direction

-VERSE-
Emaj7 Bmaj7 D#m7 C#m7
There's a thousand words that I could say to make you come home, yeah.
Emaj7 Bmaj7 D#m7 C#m7
Seems so long ago you walked away and left me alone.
Emaj7 Bmaj7 D#m7 C#m7
And I remember what you said to me, you were acting so strange.
Emaj7 Bmaj7 D#m7 C#m7
And maybe I was too blind to see that you needed a change.
G#m/D# F#/C#
Was it something I said to make you turn away,
B F#/A# F#/A# Em
to make you walk out and leave me cold? If I could just find
Bm/F# F#
a way to make it so that you were right here, right now.
-CHORUS-
Em Bm
I've been sitting here, can't get you off my mind,
Em Bm
I'm try'n' my best to be a man and be strong.
Em Bm
I drove myself insane wishing I could touch your face,
G/D F# Em
but the truth re-mains your gone, (you're-----)
Bm Em Bm
gone, (baby, you're) gone, (girl, you're gone. Baby girl, you're)
Em Bm *2 verse adds F#7(#9) before bridge*
gone, (you're) gone. (You're...___)
-BRIDGE-
Bm F#m Bm Em F#
What will I do if I can't be with you? Tell me, where will I turn to?
G A Bm A/C# Em Bm
Baby, who will I be? Now that we are apart, am I still in your heart?
A Bm E F#
Baby why don't you see that I need you hear with me? Oh----
-VERSE 2-
Now, I don't wanna make excuses, baby.
Won't change the fact that you're gone.
But if there's something that I could do,
Won't you please let me know?
The time is passing so slowly now,
Guess that's my life without you.
And maybe I could change my everyday,
But, baby, I don't want to.
So I'll just hang around and find some things to do
To take my mind off missing you.
And I know in my heart,
You can't say that you don't love me too.
Please say you do, yeah.

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

Turn me on turn me off then you turn me back on by the weekend

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]

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

Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can

Intro: E-B-C#m-A- B-E-B-C#m-A-B
Verse 1: E B C#m A
When you feel all alone
And the world has turned it's back on you
Give me a moment please to tame your wild wild heart
I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you
It's hard to find relief and people can be so cold
When darkness is upon your door and you feel like you can't take anymore
Chorus: E B C#m | A B |
Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you in the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone
Verse 2:
When you feel all alone
And a loyal friend is hard to find
You're caught in a one way street
With the monsters in your head
When hopes and dreams are far away and
You feel like you can't face the day
(Repeat Chorus)
Refrain:
Because there has always been heartache and pain
And when it's all over you'll breathe again
You'll breathe again
Chorus:

Em Em(maj7)
But you put a dart through my dreams
Em7
Through my heart and I'm back
A9
Where I started again
Am7 Bm7 C Am7/D
Never thought it would end
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge-
Em
You promised your self
Em(maj7)
But to somebody else
Em7 A9
And you made it so perfectly clear
Am7 Bm7 C Am7/D
Still I wish you were here
(Repeat Chorus)
Coda-
Em7 D/F# G
Never look back we said
Am7 C D G
How was I to know I'd miss you so...
Capo 2
C F x 4
Am F C
I know that time has numbered my days
Am F C
and I'll go along with everything you say
C F x 4
Am F C
But I ride home laughing look at me now
Am F C
and the walls of town they come crumbling down
C F x 4
Am F C
And my ears here the call of my unborn sons
Am F C
and I know the choices cover all I've done
C F x 4
Am F C
But I'll explain it all to the watchman's son
Am F C
I never lived a year better spent and loved
C F x 4
Am F
Because I know my weakness
C Am
Know my voice
F C G
And I'll believe in grace and choice
Am F C Am
And I know perhaps my heart is vast
F C G
But I'll be born without a mask woo
C F x 4
Am F C
Like the city that nursed my greed and my pride
Am F C
I stretch my arms into the sky
C F x 4
Am F C
I cry Babel, Babel look at me now
Am F C
But the walls of my town they come crumbling down
C F x 4
Am F C
You ask where will we stand in the winds that will howl
Am F C
As all we see will slip into the cloud
C F x 4
Am F C
So come down from your mountain and stand where we've been
Am F C
You know are breath is weak and our body thin
C F x 4
Am F C G
Press my nose up to the glass around your heart
Am F C G
I should've known I was weaker from the start
Am F C G Am
You'll build your walls and I'll play my bloody part
G C
To tear, to tear them down
Am F C
Well I'm going to tear, tear them down
Am F
Because I know my weakness
C Am
Know my voice
F C G
And I'll believe in grace and choice
Am F C Am
And I know perhaps my heart is vast
F C G
But I'll be born without a mask

That heartaches are healed by the sea

So bring me two Pina Coladas I gotta have one for each hand
Let's all set sail with Captain Morgan

And the moon winkin' down at me
Eases my mind by leavin' behind

The heartaches that love often brings

Now I've got a smile that goes on for miles

With no inclination to roam

I've gotta say that I think I've gotta stay

'Cause this is feelin' more and more like home
