And she's got everything that I have to live without

I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night
Chorus-

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar

So I drive home alone, as I turn off the light

I put his picture down and maybe get some sleep tonight

I go out every night and sleep all day

Since you been gone I can do what-ever I want

I can see whomever I choose
F C
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
Dm A
but nothing, I said nothing can take away these blues
D# Bb
'cos nothing compares
Dm C
nothing compares 2 U.
It's been so lonely without U here
like a bird without a song
nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
tell me baby where did I go wrong?
I could put my arms around every boy I see
but they only remind me of U.
I went to the doctor and guess what he told me guess what he told me
he said- girl U better try to have fun no matter what U do
but he's a fool
'cos nothing compares
nothing compares 2U.
All the flowers that U planted mama
in the back yard
all died when U went away
I know that living with U baby was sometimes hard
but I'm willing 2 give U another try
'cos nothing compares
nothing compares 2U.

Been flyin' solo for so long
Nobody's singin' the harmony
Up there just me and my shadow
No bass, no guitar, no tambourine

I don't wanna be a one man band
I don't wanna be a rolling stone, alone
Puttin' miles on a run-down van
Baby, we can take our own show on the road
I'll lay down the beat, you'll carry the tune
We'll get tattoos, and we'll trash hotel rooms
Baby, take my hand
I don't wanna be a one man band
[Verse 2] G / C / G / C /
I wanna run down your wild dreams
And I wanna chase every high with you
Count every rip in these old jeans
We'll never learn how to sing the blues
[Pre-Chorus 2] Am | Em | Am | Em | Am | D
If I'm gonna be famous Girl, I wanna be famous with you
We got our own little groove
[Chorus]

The chairs are all stacked, and there's no one around

Every whisper, every sigh

Eats away at this heart of mine

And there is a hollow in me now

So I put my faith in something unknown

I'm living on such sweet nothing

But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold

I'm living on such sweet nothing

You're giving me such sweet nothing

F Am G F
I was tired of my lady,
Dm C G Dm7 C
we'd been together too long
G F Am G F
like a worn out recording
Dm C Em7 F C
of a favorite song.
Gm F Am G F
So while she lay there sleepin'
Dm C G Dm7 C
I read the paper in bed
Gm F Am G F
and in the personal columns
Dm C Em7 F C
there was this letter I read.
F Am G F
If you like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and gettin' caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
if you're not into yoga
Dm C Em7 F C
if you have half a brain
Gm F Am G F
if you like makin' love at midnight
Dm C G Dm7 C
in the dunes of a cape
Gm F Am G F
then I'm the love that you've looked for
Dm C Em7 F C
write to me and escape.
F | Am G F | Dm | C | G Dm7 C | Gm
F | Am G F | Dm | C | Em7 F C |
F Am G F
I didn't think about my lady,
Dm C G Dm7 C
I know that sounds kind of mean
Gm F Am G F
But me and my old lady
Dm C Em7 F C
had fallen into the same old dull routine
Gm F Am G F
So I wrote to the paper,
Dm C G Dm7 C
took out a personal ad
Gm F Am G F
And though I'm nobody's poet,
Dm C Em7 F C
I thought it wasn't half bad.
F Am G F
Yes, I like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and getting caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
I'm not much into health food,
Dm C Em7 F C
I am into champagne
Gm F Am G F
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon
Dm C G Dm7 C
and cut through all this red tape
Gm F Am G F
At a bar called O'Malley's
Dm C Em7 F C
where we'll plan our escape.
F | Am G F | Dm | C | G Dm7 C | Gm
F | Am G F | Dm | C | Em7 F C |
F Am G F
So I waited with high hopes
Dm C G Dm7 C
and she walked in the place
Gm F Am G F
I knew her smile in an instant,
Dm C Em7 F C
I knew the curve of her face
Gm F Am G F
It was my own lovely lady
Dm C G Dm7 C
and she said, Aw, it's you.
Gm F Am G F
Then we laughed for a moment
Dm C Em7 F C
and I said, I never knew.
F Am G F
That you like piña coladas
Dm C G Dm7 C
and gettin' caught in the rain
Gm F Am G F
And the feel of the ocean
Dm C Em7 F C
and the taste of champagne
Gm F Am G F
If you like making love at midnight
Dm C G Dm7 C
in the dunes on the cape
Gm F Am G F
You're the lady I've looked for,
Dm C Em7 F C
come with me and escape
F | Am G F | Dm | C | G Dm7 C | Gm
F | Am G F | Dm | C | Em7 F C |

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

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

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

Down the stairs, I was there, I remember it all too well

And maybe we got lost in translation maybe I asked for too much

But maybe this thing was a masterpiece 'til you tore it all up
C G Am F
Running scared, I was there, I remember it all too well

Hey you call me up again just to break me like a promise
Am F
So casually cruel in the name of being honest
C G
I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lyin' here

Cause I remember it all all all too well
C G
Time won't fly it's like I'm paralyzed by it
Am F
I'd like to be my old self again but I'm still tryin' to find it
C G
After plaid shirt days and nights when you made me your own
Am F
Now you mail back my things and I walk home alone
C G
But you keep my old scarf from that very first week
Am F
Cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me
C G Am F
You cant get rid of it cause you remember it all too well yeah
C G
Cause there we are again when I loved you so
Am F
Back before you lost the one real thing you've ever known
C G Am F
It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well
C G
Wind in my hair, you were there, you remember it oh
Am F
Down the stairs, you were there, you remember it all
C G Am F
It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well
Singer Songwriter
You're not the first boy to offer the world
I think you're cool but I'm not that kind of girl
If I wanted to sleep my way to the top
I'd a done been there
I'm not just another girl singer songwriter
Playing in a cafe waiting for her big break, no
Any other girl would be lucky you found her
Fall over in love, but I cannot because of who I am
I'm a good girl, at least I'm trying to be
Until some dumb fool brings out the in me
Cause if I wanted to sleep my way to the top
Believe me I'd a done been there
Chorus
You think as a girl I'm used to getting everything that I want
But I worked very hard for every single thing that I'd got
I studied and that's why I'm smart
I pour my love into my art
And no one can take that part of who I am
Chorus

VIVA U2!! ;)
Yeah, lover I'm off the streets
Gonna go where the bright lights
And the big city meet
With a red guitar, on fire
Desire
She's the candle
Burning in my room
I'm like the needle
Needle and spoon
Over the counter
With a shotgun
Pretty soon, everybody got one
And the fever when I'm beside her
Desire, Desire
(Burning, Burning)
She's the dollars
She's my protection
She's the promise
In the year of election
Sister, I can't let you go
I'm like a preacher
Stealing hearts at a traveling show
For the love or money, money...?
Desire...

Of her endless chatter

Nothing I could say

Ever seemed to matter

So I took a little drive

Just to clear my head
A A
I saw a flashing neon up ahead
E
It looked like a place
E
To find some satisfaction
A [play first note only; then Rest]
With a little less talk
And a lot more action
A
I paid the man at the door
A
And pushed my way to the bar
A
Shouted for a drink
A
Over a screaming guitar
D
A drunk on a stool
D
Tried to mess with my head
A
But I didn't even listen
A
To a word he said
E
I knew somewhere
E
Amid all this distraction
A [repeat of first note...]
Was a little less talk
And a lot more action
[Chorus]
D
A little less talk
D
If you please
A
A lot more loving
A
Is what I need
E
Let's get on down
E
To the main attraction
A [first note...]
With a little less talk
And a lot more action
A
Well she was fighting them off
A
At a corner table
A
She had a longneck bottle
A
She was peeling the label
D
The look on her face
D
It was perfectly clear
A
She said somebody please
A
Get me out of here
E
The look she shot me
E
Through the glass refraction
A [first note...]
Said a little less talk
And a lot more action

Maybe we're bent and broken

[Chorus]
[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]

Bridge-

Cause the love that you gave that we made

[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.
Tuning- Standard, capo 3rd fret
Em C
Taking me higher than I've ever been before
D Am
I'm holding it back, just want to shout out, give me more
Em C
You're just a hideaway, you're just a feeling
D Am
You let my heart escape, beyond the meaning
Em C
Not even I can't find a way to stop the storm
D Am
Oh baby, it's out of my control, it's going home
Em C
But you're just a chance I take to keep on dreaming

You're just another day that keeps me breathing
Em C
Baby, I love the way that there's nothing sure
D Am
Baby, don't stop me, hideaway with me some more
[Here is where the bass comes in. It works well with the same Em-C-D-Am
progression, or you can try Em for 4 counts, C for 2, and D for 2. The
C and D are syncopated like the bass line. I don't know. Either works.
Stick with one all the way through the ooh aahs.]
Ooh, aah, aah, ooh, ooh, aah, aah, ooh, ooh, aah, aah, ooh, ooh, aah, aah, ooh
[Now back to the verse Em-C-D-Am progression.]
You send me the shiver and the spine that might overflow
You're bringing me closer to the edge, I'm letting go
You're just a hideaway, you're just a feeling
You let my heart escape, beyond the meaning
Putting my head into the clouds I'm floating home
When you can be going I can't find a way to stop
You're just a chance I take to keep on dreaming
You're just another day that keeps me breathing
Ooh, aah, aah, ooh, ooh, aah, aah, ooh
Baby, I love the way that there's nothing sure
Baby, don't stop me, hideaway with me some more
Hideaway with me some more
Bringing me higher than I've ever been before
I'm holding it back, just want to shout it, give me more
You're just a hideaway, you're just a feeling
You let my heart escape, beyond the meaning
Not even I can find a way to stop the storm
Oh baby, it's out of my control what's going on
You're just a chance I take to keep on dreaming
You're just another day, that keeps me breathing
You're a day that keeps me dreaming
Ooh, aah, aah, ooh, ooh, aah, aah, ooh
Baby, I love the way that there's nothing sure
Baby, don't stop me, hide away with me some more
Hideaway with me some more

A
Felt the joints in my bones where you were touching me, oh oh
B E
Didn't want to take it slow
E C#m
In the days, going crazed, I can barely think
A
You're replaying in my brain, find it hard to sleep, oh oh
B E
Waiting for my phone to blow
E
Now I'm here in a sticky situation

B E

Verse 2- (same as verse 1)
What's the time, such a crime
Not a single word, sipping on a patron
Just to calm my nerves, oh oh
Poppin' bottles by the phone
Oh yeah
Act me up, pat me down, turn me inside out
That's enough, hold me up
Maybe i'm in doubt, oh oh
Now don't even think you know, no no
[chorus]
Verse 3-
Anything you wanna do, i'll be on it too
Everything you say, it's like a gold with a view
Business on the front, party in the back
Maybe I was wrong, was the outfit really wack
This kinda thing doesn't happen usually
I'm on the opposite side of it, truthfully
I know you want it so come and get it
Uh cheerio
[chorus]
Outro-
E

Devil Don't Wear Prada
Chorus: Am F7 | Am F7 | C7 B7 | Ab7 2X G7
The devil don't wear prada, she wears Dolce and Gabana
And she is twice as sexy on that second glance
Her touch is Euphoric, a mirage you can't ignore it
But you know you need to put her in the past
Verse: Am | Em | Am | Em | F7 | E7 (2nd time: E7 C#7#9)
She will seclude you in her chamber of love
She will reserve you from the dangers of love
From the cold, cold hearted world outside
But don't mistake this for a home
Soon you'll be left there all alone
and no one will even hear your cry
Chorus
Verse 2: Am | Em | Am | Em | F7 | E7 (2nd time: E7 C#7#9)
Materialistic type of , she wears her stilletos
She buys her Jordans just for kicks, on the week of release
She can't even tell you what minumum wage is
She thinks that money grows on trees, she gets whatever she wants
Even her T-shirts read Armani, or Louis Vuiton
But don't be fooled by the lies she flaunts
Chorus
Bridge: E7 | Am 3X D7 | E7 | Am .. hold F7
Move on, she's coming after you
And if you don't, she's gonna find you, right where you are
So move on, she's seeking out the worst
And she'll pull you in if you don't pull out first
Chorus
Tag

F#m
War! It ain't nothing but a heartbreaker.
War! friend only to the undertaker.
Ooooh, War! is an enemy to all mankind.
The thought of war blows my mind.
War! has caused unrest within the younger generation.
Induction then destruction..who wants to die? Unnnnh!
CHORUS:

F#m
War! it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker.
War! it's got one friend..that's the undertaker.
Ooooh, WAR! has shattered many a young man's dreams.
Made him disabled, bitter and mean.
Life is much to short and precious to spend
fighting wars these days.
War! can't give life..It can only take it away.
CHORUS:

F#m
War! it ain't nothing but a heartbreaker.
War! friend only to the undertaker.

They say we must fight to keep our freedom,
But, Lord knows, there's got to be a better way.

It ain't my fault, so don't blame me

I swear I just came here to unwind and have one drink

The way it looks ain't what you think

This Cabernet has a way of vanishing on me
[Chorus]
E A
There's a hole in the bottle leaking all this wine
E B7
It's already empty and it ain't even supper time

Honey, no, I don't miss him

In fact, it slipped my mind
E B7 | E
There's a hole in the bottle of wine

I keep my cool, play by all the rules

I swear ten minutes ago that bottle was full

I won't cry about love gone wrong

'Cause tears would water down this ruby red I'm sipping on
Chorus:
I went and got a new one
'Cause the other one was broken
Now this one's halfway gone

You may ask me where it's goin'
But I can't even find
The hole in the bottle of wine

I know that they say
That some things are better left unsaid
It wasn't like you only talked to him and you know it

All of these things people told me
Keep messing with my head
(Messing with my head)
You should've picked honesty
Then you may not have blown it (Yea..)

You don't have to say, what you did,

You told me you loved me
Why did you leave me, all alone
(All alone)
Now you tell me you need me
When you call me, on the phone
(When you call me on the phone)
Girl I refuse, you must have me confused
With some other guy
(I'm not like them baby)
Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn
(It's your turn)
To cry, cry me a river
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

You can be amazing

You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug

You can be the outcast

Or be the backlash of somebody's lack of love

Or you can start speaking up

Nothing's gonna hurt you the way that words do

And they settle ‘neath your skin

Kept on the inside and no sunlight

Sometimes a shadow wins
D
But I wonder what would happen if you

Say what you wanna say

And let the words fall out

Honestly I wanna see you be brave

By the enemy

Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing

Bow down to the mighty

Don't run, stop holding your tongue

Maybe there's a way out of the cage where you live

Maybe one of these days you can let the light in

Show me how big your brave is

Say what you wanna say

And let the words fall out

Honestly I wanna see you be brave

With what you want to say

Won't do you any good

Did you think it would?

Let your words be anything but empty

Why don't you tell them the truth?

Say what you wanna say

When all at once I wake-up, from something that keeps knock-ing-at-my-brain,
Dm
Be-fore I go insane I hold my pillow to my head,
C G Dm
And spring-up in my bed, screaming out the words I dread - I think I love you!
Dm A
This morn-ing, I woke up with this feel-ing,
Dm G
I didn't know how to deal-with, and so I just decided to myself
Dm
I'd hide-it-to-myself and never talk about it,
C G Dm
And did not go and shout it when you walked into the room - I think I love you!
G D
I think I love you so what am I so afraid of I'm afraid that I'm not
A Bm
sure of a love there is no cure for
A D
I think I love you isn't that what life is made of
E A
though it worries me to say that I've never felt this way
