There was a time when I was alone
C G
Nowhere to go and no place to call home
Em G
My only friend was the man in the moon
C G
And even sometimes he would go away to
Em G
Then one night as I closed my eyes
C G
I saw a shadow flying high
Em G
He came to me with the sweetest smile
C G
Told me he wanted to talk for a while
Em G
He said Peter Pan that's what they call me.
C G
I promise that you'll never be lonely.

Always on the run from Captain Hook

Run, run, lost boy they say to me

Away from all of reality

Neverland is home to lost boys like me

And lost boys like me are free

Neverland is home to lost boys like me

Em G
He sprinkled me in pixie dust and told me to believe
C G
Believe in him, and believe in me
Em G
Together we will fly away in a cloud of green
C G
To your beautiful destiny

As we soared above the town that never loved me
C G
I realized I finally had a family

Soon enough we reached Neverland

Peacefully my feet hit the sand

If I could give you the world
On a silver platter
Would it even matter?
You'd still be mad at me
If I could find in all this
A dozen roses
Which I would give to you
You'd still be miserable
In reality, I'm gonna be who I be
And I don't feel no faults
For all the lies that you bought
You can try as you may
Break me down but I say
That it ain't up to you
Gone and do what you do
CHORUS
Hate on me, hater
Now or later
‘Coz I'm gonna do me
You'll be mad, baby
Go ‘head and hate
Go ‘head and hate on me, hate on
‘Coz I'm not afraid of it
What I got I paid for
You can hate on me
Ooh, if I gave you peaches
Out of my own garden
And I made you a peach pie
Would you slap me high
What if I gave you diamonds
Out of my own womb
Would you feel the love in that,
Or ask ‚why not the moon‚Äù?
If I gave you sanity
For the whole of humanity,
Had all the solutions
For the pain and pollution
No matter where I live,
Despite the things I give,
You'll always be this way
So go ‘head and….
You cannot hate on me
‘Cuz my mind is free
Feel my destiny
So shall it be

No reason to get excited, the thief, he kindly spoke,

But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate,
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.

While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too.

Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl

When the sun goes down on my side of town
That lonesome feelin' comes to my door

An' the whole world turns... blue

There's a rundown bar across the railroad tracks
I got a table for two, way in the back

Where I sit alone... and I think of losin' you

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

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

Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon

Found my black queen Cleopatra

No more she lives, no more serpent in her room
No more, it has killed Cleopatra, Cleopatra

The cars are moving like a half a mile an hour and I
Am
Started staring at the passengers who're waving goodbye
F
Can you tell me what was ever really special about me all this time?
[Chorus]
Am F
But I believe the world is burning to the ground
C
Oh well, I guess we're gonna find out
Let's see how far we've come
G
Let's see how far we've come
Am F
Well I, believe, it all, is coming to an end
C
Oh well, I guess, we're gonna pretend
Let's see how far we've come
G
Let's see how far we've come
[Verse 2]
C G
I think it turned ten o'clock but I don't really know
Am
Then I can't remember caring for an hour or so
F
Started crying and I couldn't stop myself
I started running but there's nowhere to run to
C G
I sat down on the street, took a look at myself
Am
Said where you going man, you know the world is headed for hell
Say your goodbyes if you got someone you can
F
Say goodbye to
[Chorus]
Am F
I believe the world is burning to the ground
C
Oh well, I guess we're gonna find out
Let's see how far we've come (right now)
G
Let's see how far we've come
Am F
Well I, believe, it all, is coming to an end
C
Oh well, I guess, we're gonna pretend,
Let's see how far we've come
G
Let's see how far we've come
[Interlude]
Am C F E7

[Bridge]
Am C
It's gone, gone, baby, it's all gone
F
There's no one on the corner
E
And there's no one at home
Am
It was cool, cool
C
It was just all cool
F
Now it's over for me
E
And it's over for you
Am C
It's gone, gone, baby, it's all gone
F
There's no one on the corner

And there's no one at home

It was cool, cool

Now it's over for me

Oh well, I guess we're gonna find out
Let's see how far we've come

And now, the end is near,
D7 B7
And so I face the final curtain,
Em7 Em7/D
My friend. I'll say it clear,
Em7/Db A7 D
I'll stay my case of which I'm certain.
D D7
I've lived a live that's full.
G Gm
I traveled each and every highway,
D A Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And more, much more than this, I did it m…………….y way.
D Dmaj7
Regrets, I've had a few,
D7 B7
But then again, too few to mention.
Em7 Em7/D
I did what I had to do,
Em7/Db A7 D
And saw it thru without exemption.
D D7
I planned each charted course,
G Gm
Each careful step along the byway,
D A Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And more, much more than this, I did it m___...y way.
D D7
Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew,
G Gsus4 G
When I bit off more than I could chew,
Em A7
But thru it all, when there was doubt,
F# Bm7
I ate it up, and spit it out.
Em A
I faced it all, and I stood tall,
Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And did it m___...y way.
I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.
To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it m___y way.
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it m___y way!

I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in a car / He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared / They'd seen his face before

Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords
I saw a film today oh boy / The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away / But I just had to look
Having read the book....

[Lady Gaga]
Hello, hello, baby, you called?
I can't hear a thing
I have got no service
In the club, you say? say?
Wha-wha-what did you say, huh?
You're breakin' up on me
Sorry I cannot hear you
I'm kinda busy
Kinda busy
Kinda busy
Sorry I cannot hear you
Verse 1:
Oh, once upon a midnight eerie I woke with something in my head
I couldn't escape the memory Of a phone call and of what you said
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
I could not believe my eyes
When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend
Who needs to humor me and tell me lies,
yeah humor me and tell me lies
And I'll lie too and say I don't mind And as we seek so shall we find
And when you're feeling open I'll still be here
But not without a certain degree of fear
Well, what will be with you and me I still can see things hopefully
Chorus:
But you Why you wanna give me a run-around?
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up?
When all it does is slow me down
Verse 2:
Shake me and my confidence About a great many things
But I've been there I can see it cower
Like a nervous magician waiting in the wings
Of a bad play where the heroes are right
And nobody thinks or expects too much
And Hollywood's calling for the movie rights
Singing "Hey babe, let's keep in touch",
hey baby, let's keep in touch
But I want more than a touch I want you to reach me
And show me all the things no one else can see
So what you feel becomes mine as well
And soon if we're lucky we'd be unable to tell
What's yours and mine, the fishing's fine
And it doesn't have to rhyme, so don't you feed me a line
Chorus:
Verse 3:
Tra la la la la bombardier, this is the pilot speaking
I've got some news for you
It seems my ship still stands no matter what you drop
And there ain't a whole lot that you can do
Oh sure the banner may be torn and the wind's gotten colder
Perhaps I've grown a little cynical
But I know no matter what the waitress brings
I shall drink it and always be full, yeah I will drink it and always be full
Oh I like coffee and I like tea I'd like to be able to enter a final plea
I still got this dream that you just can't shake
I love you to the point you can no longer take
Well all right okay, so be that way
I hope and pray that there's something left to say
Chorus:

I know you're somewhere out there

As long as I'm here

As long as you love me
F C Bb
Give me that old school love right now
[Verse 1- Lupe Fiasco]
F C Bb
Give me that late 80s early 90s old school
Feeling like my second album, so cool
F C Bb
Chiraq summer looking so cruel
Look shorty in the eye, told me it was no rules
F C Bb
Went to speak but was like never mind
Let my mind just sneak back to a better time
F C Bb
When I was his age and if he's ever mine
Thinking he would only think back to this and never find
F C Bb
Better times to think back to when it comes
And he's older in the presence of somebody young
F C Bb
Telling him the same things that he told me
And he reacts the same way as that OG
F C Bb
But it's old school, it's like '03
And this old man is my old me
F C Bb
Takes a long time to happen so fast
To realize that your future is somebody else's past
Wassup...
[Hook x2]
(carry on the F C Bb Bb throughout the song)
[Verse 2- Lupe Fiasco]
Analog black vinyl spinning sounding so good
Top down, can't be a classic if it's no wood
If you don't know what, then you new school
Floor model is the foundation for your YouTubes
Model flows off of Fat Boys and Juice Crews
Melle Mel's, Ice-T's, and the 2 Cools
Add a Moe Dee and a Double L
Had to walk cause it's hard to run in those unbuckled shells
One microphone and a couple 12s
Six drum sounds and a couple bells
Is all you had to make a couple rails
And that's a track, and if you want it (eeeeeeeh)
You have to make it like that
Now what's one turtle to a couple snails?
Takes a long time to happen so fast
And realize your future is somebody else's past
Wassup...
[Hook x2]
[Verse 3- Lupe Fiasco]
Chiraq summer looking so cruel
How can I reel-to-reel when there's Pro Tool?
I can't dig it at all because there's no tube
Fire when you speak but ain't no warmth in your vocals
Might have been a better rhyme then just never mind
If it's better with time then think in line
That you're going to be your nicest 'round your midlife crisis
If your life like Christ live your midlife like it's... Christ-like
I ain't psychic
I know it's all a cycle and everybody bike it
And France is enormous you're Lance with endorsements
But you might need a hand to enhance your performance
Consider this a kilogram of encouragement
Teach you how to sneak it past the enforcement
And when you get it through in a manner so cool
Remember to give a little nod to the old school
Wassup...
[Bridge- Ed Sheeran]
F C Bb
Give me your old school love right now

I'm leaving it all up to you darling, giving you everything you want

And give me that old school love right now

[Verse 1] F# C# G#m B (8X)
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me /
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kinda dumb with her finger and her /
Thumb in the shape of an "L" on her forehead /
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running /
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb /
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets /
You'll never know if you don't go You'll never shine if you don't glow
[Chorus] F# B Cdim B (3X)
Hey now you're an All Star get your game on, go play
Hey now you're a Rock Star get the show on get paid
And all that glitters is gold
F# E B
Only shooting stars break the mold
[Verse 2] F# C# G#m B (4X)
It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now but wait 'til you get older /
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The waters getting warm so you might as well swim /
My world's on fire how about yours
That's the way I like it and I never get bored
[Chorus]
[Verse 3] F# C# G#m B (8X)
Somebody once asked, could I spare some change for gas
/I need to get myself away from this place /
I said yep what a concept I could use a little fuel myself /
And we could all use a little change /
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running /
Didn't make sense not to live for fun Y
our brain gets smart but your head gets dumb /
So much to do so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets /
You'll never know if you don't go, go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
[Chorus 3

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

Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle every little farm town with you
In this brand new chevy with a lift kit
Look a hell lot better with you up in it
So Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
When that summer sun fell to it's knees
I looked at her and she looked at me
And I turned on those KC lights and drove all night
Cuz it felt so right her and I man we felt so right
I put it in park
and grabbed my guitar
and strung a couple cords
and sang from the heart
Girl you sure got the beat in my chest bumpin'
Hell I can't get you out of my head
Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle every little farm town with you

You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle every little farm town with you

This love is ablaze, I saw flames from the side of the stage,
and the fire brigade comes in a couple of days

Until then we've got nothing to say and nothing to know
But something to drink and maybe something to smoke
C#m
Let it go until our roads will change,
Singing we found love in a local rave
C#m
No I don't really know what I'm supposed to say,
But I can just figure it out and hope and pray
G#m
I told her my name, I said it's nice to meet you,
Then she handed me a bottle of water filled with tequila
G#m
I already know she's a keeper, just from this one small act of kindness, I'm in
C#m
Deep shit If anybody finds out I'm meant to drive home, but I took all of it down
Not sobering up we sit on the couch
C#m
One thing led to another now she's kissing my mouth
G#m
I need you darling, come on set the tone, if you feel you're falling
G#m
Won't you let me know

Verse 1: Em C G D
What would I do without your smart mouth / Drawing me in, and kicking me out
Got my head spinning, no kidding, I can't pin you down
What's going on in that beautiful mind / I'm on your magical mystery ride
And I'm so dizzy, don't know what hit me, but I'll be alright

My heads under water / But Im breathing fine / You're crazy and I'm out of my mind
Chorus: G Em Am D 2X
Cause all of me / Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections
Give your all to me / I'll give my all to you
You're my end and my beginning
Even when I lose Im winning
Em C G D 2X
Cause I give you all, all of me
And you give me all, all of you, oh
Verse 2: Em C G D
How many times do I have to tell you / Even when you're crying you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every move
You're my downfall, you're my muse / My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can't stop singing, its ringing, in my head for you
Pre Chorus: Am Em D Am Am Em D D
My heads under water / But Im breathing fine / You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

[Verse 1] Bm G D A/C# x4
Another head hangs lowly,
child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence,
who are we mistaken
But you see it's not me, it's not my family
In your head, in your head, they are fighting
With their tanks and their bombs and their bombs and their guns
in your head, in your head, they are crying
[Chorus 1]
In your head, in your head,
zombie, zombie, zombie
What's in your head, in your head,
zombie, zombie, zombie
[Verse 2]
Another mother's breaking
heart is taking over
When the violence causes silence,
we must be mistaken
It's the same old theme since 1916
In your head, in your head, they're still fighting
With their tanks and their bombs and their bombs and their guns
In your head, in your head, they're dying

[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?

[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]

Don't go chasing waterfalls
