I Can't Help How Much I Miss You
Chorus-
Baby I love you when you're here
I hate you when you're gone
I don't really hate you
I just hate the fact you're gone
And when you're so far away
I feel like I'm gonna break
'cause I just want to kiss you
I can't help how much I miss you
I can't help how much I miss you
Verse 1-
Well I know that you're working hard
'Cause that's my love, the man you are
I'm so proud of you for all that you do
And you and me make one great team
Together baby, we'll succeed
I know that we will, if not I'll love you still
Pre-
But the road feels like it's getting longer
I know it'll make us strong
but I can't wait till I can see your face again
Chorus-
Bridge-
Oh, and my favorite kiss
is the one that I get
when you lean in to kiss me goodbye
Then you turn and you say
Try to not count the days
But that's all that's keeping me alive
repeat Verse 1-( )
repeat pre-
I know that I'm in your thoughts
And I know that I'm in your heart
But I can't wait till I can see your face again
So if I come across to you
Unlike how I usually do
Sometimes it gets so hard I lose my way
Oh baby I love your way
Everyday yeah
I wanna be with you night and day

RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSED REINDEER
Johnny Marks (c) 1949
You know Dasher and Dancer [Fmaj7 Em7]
And Prancer and Vixen, [Dm7 Cmaj7]
Comet and Cupid [Fmaj7 Em7]
And Donner and Blitzen. [Dm7 Cmaj7]
But do you recall [Am E7 Am]
The most famous reindeer of all? [D9 G4 G7]
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer (reindeer) [C]
Had a very shiny nose (like a light bulb) [C G7]
And if you ever saw it (saw it) [G7]
You would even say it glows (like a flash light) [C]
All of the other reindeer (reindeer) [C]
Used to laugh and call him names [C G7] (like Pinochio)
They wouldn't let poor Rudolph (Rudolph) [G7]
Play in any reindeer games (like Monopoly) [G7 C]
Then one foggy Christmas Eve [F Em7 A7]
Santa came to say (Ho Ho Ho) [Dm7 G7 C]
Rudolph with your nose so bright [G7 Em]
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight? [Am7 D7 Dm7 G7]
Then all the reindeer loved him (loved him) [C]
And they shouted out with glee (yippee) [C G7]
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer (reindeer) [G7]
You'll go down in history (like Columbus) [G7 C]

/ G - / F C / - / Bm Bb Am - / Cm G Am AmC /
Oh, listen, boy, I'm sure that you think
You got it all under control
You don't want somebody telling you
The way to stay in someone's soul
You're a big boy now and you'll never let her go
But that's just the kind of thing she ought to know
... / Cm G Am GA /
{Refrain}
Tell her about it, tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason to accept that you're for real
Tell her about it, tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her, let her know how much she means
/ D - F#m - / Bm - Em EmA / -
Listen, boy, it's not automatically
A certain guarantee
To insure yourself you've got to provide
Communication constantly
When you love someone you're always insecure
And there's only one good way to reassure
{As Refrain}
Tell her about it, let her know how much you care
When she can't be with you tell her you wish you were there
Tell her about it everyday before you leave
Pay her some attention, give her something to believe
'Cause now and then she'll get to worrying
Just because you haven't spoken for so long
Though you may not have done anything
Will that be a consolation when she's gone
/ F Dm Eb - / Gm C D - / 1st / Gm C A - /
Listen, boy, it's good information
From a man who's made mistakes
Just a word or two that she gets from you
Could be the difference that it makes
She's a trusting soul, she's put her trust in you
But a girl like that won't tell you what you should do
{Refrain}
Tell her about it, tell her how you feel right now
Tell her about it, the girl don't want to wait too long
You got to tell her about it
Tell her now and you won't go wrong
You got to tell her about it before it gets too late
You got to tell her about it

Appreciate every mix tape your friends make. You never know when we come and go
like we're on the interstate.

I was left to my own devices
Many days fell away with nothing to show
And the walls kept tumbling down In the city we love
Great clouds roll over the hills Bringing darkness from above
But if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
Nothing changed at all.
And if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
You've been here before?
(D) (A) (E)
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
(D) (A) (F#m) (E)
We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
In your pose as the dust settles around us
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
But if you close your eyes
(D) (A) (F#m) (E)
Does it almost feels like
Nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
You've been here before?
(D) (A) (F#m) (E)
How am I gonna be an optimist about this
If you close your eyes
Middle 8 is the same as verse
(D) (A) (F#m) (E)
Oh where do we begin, The rubble or our sins?
Oh where do we begin, The rubble or our sins?
Oh where do we begin, The rubble or our sins?
Oh where do we begin, The rubble or our sins?
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
But if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
Nothing changed at all,
And if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feels like
You've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

LYRICS!!!
Never Let You Go
There's every good reason for letting you go
She's sneaky and smoked out
And it's starting to show
I never let you go
I never let you turn around, our back on each other
That's a good idea, break a promise to your mother
Turn around your back on each other
You say that I've changed
Well maybe I did
But even if I changed
What's wrong with it
I never let you go
I never let you turn around, our back on each other
That's a good idea, break a promise to your mother
Turn around your back on each other
And our friends are gone and gone
And all the time moves on and on
And all I know is it's wrong, it's wrong
If there's a reason, it's lost on me
Maybe we'll be friends, I guess we'll see
I never let you go
I never let you turn around, our back on each other
That's a good idea, break a promise to your mother
Turn around your back on each other
I remember the stupid things, the mood rings, the bracelets and the beads
Nickels and dimes, yours and mine, did you cash in all your dreams
You don't dream for me, no
You don't dream for me, no
But I still feel you pulse like sonar from the days in the waves
That girl is like a sunburn
I would like to save
The girl is like a sunburn
I would like to save
She's like a sunburn

But there's something on my mind

You see, I haven't been the same

Since that cold November day
We said we needed space

And the only thing I learned
Is that I need you desperately

So here I am
D A
And can you please tell me, oh
[Chorus]
D A
Where do broken hearts go
Bm D
Can they find their way home
G D
Back to the open arms

Of a love that's waiting there

And if somebody loves you
Bm D
Won't they always love you
G D
I look in your eyes
A D
And I know that you still care, for me
[Verse]
I've been around enough to know
That dreams don't turn to gold
And that there is no easy way
No you just can't run away
And what we have is so much more
Than we ever had before
And no matter how I try
You're always on my mind
Bm A
So here I am
D A
And can you please tell me, oh
[Chorus]

Johny's in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
D
Look out kid
It's somethin' you did
A
God knows when
But you're doin' it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend
E
The man in the coon-skip cap
In the big pen
A
Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten.
A
A
Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talkin' that the heat put
Plants in the bed but
The phone's tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the DA
D
Look out kid
Don't matter what you did
A
Walk on your tip toes
Don't try, 'No Doz'
Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
E
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
A
You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows.
A
A
Get sick, get well
Hang around an ink well
Ring bell, hard to tell
If anything is goin' to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write Braille
Get jailed, jump bail, Join the army, if you failed
D
Look out kid
You're gonna get hit
A
But users, cheaters
Six-time losers
Hang around the theaters
E
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin' for a new fool
A
Don't follow leaders
Watch the parkin' meters.
A
A
Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift
B
Look out kid
They keep it all hid
A
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
E
Don't wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
A
The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles.

Though you may not drive a great big Cadillac

[Chorus] Am | C | F | Em G
I love it when you call me señorita
I wish I could pretend I didn't need ya
But every touch is ooh-la-la-la It's true, la-la-la
Ooh, I should be runnin' Ooh, you keep me coming for ya
[Verse 1]
Land in Miami, the air was hot from summer rains
Sweat drippin' off me before I even knew her name, la-la-la
It felt like ooh-la-la-la, yeah no
Sapphire and moonlight, we danced for hours in the sand
Tequila sunrise, her body fit right in my hands, ooh-la-la-la
It felt like ooh-la-la-la, yeah
[Chorus]
I love it when you call me señorita
I wish I could pretend I didn't need ya
But every touch is ooh-la-la-la It's true, la-la-la
Ooh, I should be runnin' Ooh, you know
I love it when you call me señorita
I wish it wasn't so damn hard to leave ya
But every touch is ooh-la-la-laIt's true, la-la-la
Ooh, I should be runnin' Ooh, you keep me coming for ya
[Verse 2]
Locked in the hotel, there's just somethings that never change
You say we're just friends, but friends don't know the way you taste, la-la-la
'Cause ya know it's been a long time coming, don't ya let me fall, ooh
Ooh, when, your lips undress me, hooked on your tongue
C G BREAK
Ooh love, your kiss is deadly, don't stop
[Chorus]
[Outro]
All along I've been coming for ya (For you)
And I hope it means something to you
Call my name, I'll be coming for ya
Calling for ya / For ya / For ya (Oh, she loves it when I come)
For ya / Ooh, I should be runnin'
Ooh, you keep me comin' for ya

Turn the lights off in this place
And she shines just like a star
And I swear I know her face
I just don't know who you are
Turn the music up in here
I still hear her loud and clear
Like she's right there in my ear
Telling me
That she wants to own me
To control me
Come closer [x3]
[Chorus]
And I just can't pull my self away
Under her spell I can't break
I just can't stop [x4]
And i just can't bring myself away
But I don't want to escape
I just can't stop [x4]
I can feel her on my skin
I can taste her on my tounge
She's the sweetest taste of sin
The more I get the more I want
She wants to own me
Come closer
She says come closer
(Repeat Chorus)
Come Closer [x7]
I just can't stop no [x4]

And I just can't pull myself away
Under her spell I can't break

Hey!
And that's it. Use the same chords and strumming for each chorus and verse, and as for
solo.... well, you can either play the solo like normal(I'll put the tab for the solo
or you can skip it. I find if you're playing alone, the chorus sounds awkward like
because it goes from loud chorus to a somewhat empty/quiet solo feeling, so personally I
it. However, if you have a band or something, it may sound better with the solo.
Also, for the part at the end where he goes a denial over and over, just do the chorus.

[Verse 1]
A G6
Early one mornin' the sun was shinin',
A G6
I was layin' in bed
A G6
Wond'rin' if she'd changed at all
D
If her hair was still red.
A G6
Her folks they said our lives together
A G6
Sure was gonna be rough
A G6
They never did like Mama's homemade dress
D
Papa's bankbook wasn't big enough.
E F#m
And I was standin' on the side of the road
A D
Rain fallin' on my shoes
E F#m
Heading out for the East Coast
A D E
Lord knows I've paid some dues gettin' through,
G D A Asus A Asus
Tangled up in blue.
[Verse 2]
A G6
She was married when we first met
A G6
Soon to be divorced
A G6
I helped her out of a jam, I guess,
D
But I used a little too much force.
A G6
We drove that car as far as we could
A G6
Abandoned it out West
A G6
Split up on a dark sad night
D
Both agreeing it was best.
E F#m
She turned around to look at me
A D
As I was walkin' away
E F#m
I heard her say over my shoulder,
A D E
We'll meet again someday on the avenue,
G D A Asus A Asus
Tangled up in blue.
[Verse 3]
A G6
I had a job in the great north woods
A G6
Working as a cook for a spell
A G6
But I never did like it all that much
D
And one day the ax just fell.
A G6
So I drifted down to New Orleans
A G6
Where I happened to be employed
A G6
Workin' for a while on a fishin' boat
D
Right outside of Delacroix.
E F#m
But all the while I was alone
A D
The past was close behind,
E F#m
I seen a lot of women
A D E
But she never escaped my mind, and I just grew
G D A Asus A Asus
Tangled up in blue.
[Verse 4]
A G6
She was workin' in a topless place
A G6
And I stopped in for a beer,
A G6
I just kept lookin' at the side of her face
D
In the spotlight so clear.
A G6
And later on as the crowd thinned out
A G6
I's just about to do the same,
A G6
She was standing there in back of my chair
D
Said to me, Don't I know your name?
E F#m
I muttered somethin' underneath my breath,
A D
She studied the lines on my face.
Em F#m
I must admit I felt a little uneasy
A D Em
When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe,
G D A Asus A Asus
Tangled up in blue.
[Verse 5]
A G6 A G
She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe
A G6
I thought you'd never say hello, she said
D
You look like the silent type.
A G6
Then she opened up a book of poems
A G6
And handed it to me
A G6
Written by an Italian poet
D
From the thirteenth century.
E F#m
And every one of them words rang true
A D
And glowed like burnin' coal
E F#m
Pourin' off of every page
A D E
Like it was written in my soul from me to you,
G D A Asus A Asus
Tangled up in blue.
[Verse 6]
A G6
I lived with them on Montague Street
A G6
In a basement down the stairs,
A G6
There was music in the cafes at night
D
And revolution in the air.
A G6
Then he started into dealing with slaves
A G6
And something inside of him died.
A G6
She had to sell everything she owned
D
And froze up inside.
E F#m
And when finally the bottom fell out
A D
I became withdrawn,
Em F#m
The only thing I knew how to do
A D E
Was to keep on keepin' on like a bird that flew,
G D A Asus A Asus
Tangled up in blue.
[Verse 7]
A G6
So now I'm goin' back again,
A G6
I got to get to her somehow.
A G6
All the people we used to know
D
They're an illusion to me now.
A G6
Some are mathematicians
A G6
Some are carpenter's wives.
A G6
Don't know how it all got started,
D
I don't know what they're doin' with their lives.
E F#m
But me, I'm still on the road
A D
Headin' for another joint
E F#m
We always did feel the same,
A D E
We just saw it from a different point of view,

Tangled up in blue.

Verse 1: We'll do it all, everything, on our own.
We don't need, anything, or anyone.
Half Chorus: If I lay here, if I just lay here
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
Verse 2: I don't quite know, how to say, how I feel
Those three words, I said too much, but not enough.
Full Chorus:
If I lay here, if I just lay here
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
Forget what we're told, before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.
Verse 3: Let's waste time, chasing cars, around our heads.
I need your grace, to remind me, to find my own.
Full Chorus:
Bridge: All that I am, all that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where, confused about how as well
just know that these things will never change for us at all.

C G Am F x2
C G
I walked to the door with you, the air was cold
Am F
But something about it felt like home somehow, and I,
C G
Left my scarf there at your sisters house
Am F-once
And you still got it, in your drawer, even now
C G Am F
C G
Oh your sweet dispositon and my wide eyed gaze
Am F
We're singing in the car getting lost upstate
C G
The autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place
Am F
And I can picture it after all these days
C G
And I know it's long gone and, and magics not here no more
Am G F G Am G
And I might be okay but I'm not fine at all
C G
Cause there we are again on that little town street
Am F
You almost ran the red cause you were lookin' over at me
C G Am F
Wind in my hair, I was there, I remember it all too well
C G
Photo album on the counter your cheeks were turing red
Am F
You used to be a little kid with glasses in a twin size bed
C G
And your mothers telling stories 'bout you on a t-ball team
Am F
You tell me about your past thinkin' your future was me
C G
And I know it's long gone and it was nothing else I could do
Am G F G Am G
And I forget about you long enough to forget why I needed too
C G
Cause here we are again in the middle of the night
Am F
We dance around the kitchen in the refrigerator light
C G Am F
Down the stairs, I was there, I remember it all too well
C G Am F G
C G
And maybe we got lost in translation maybe I asked for too much
Am F
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
C G
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
Am F C G Am F
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

It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well

I hope the following will assist!
OK. The numbers on the strings should relate to which finger to use -
't' is thumb, 1,2,3 are 1st, 2nd, 3rd fingers respectively!
So the D chord (xx0232) picked like this
E-------------------|
B-----2-------2-----|
G---1---1---1---1---|
D-t-------t---------|t...... etc
A-------------------|
E-------------------|
The A chord (x02220) like this! nb finger '3' can be left out or played simultaneously with '2'!
E---------------------------|
B-------3-----------3-------|
G-----2---2-------2---2-----|
D---1-------1---1-------1---|
A-t-----------t-------------|t....etc
E---------------------------|
...and so on for the other chords.

Tell it like it is
Don't be ashamed to let your conscience be your guide

We may be here today and gone tomorrow
You might as well get what you want
So go on and live, baby go on and live

Tell it like it is
I'm nothing to play with
Go and find yourself a toy

Time marches on, just can't wait
Em7 E7sus4
The clock keeps turning, why hesitate
Asus4 A6
You silly fool, you can't change your fate
Em7 E7sus4
Let's cut the rug, a little jive and jitterbug
Asus4 A6
We want the best, we won't settle for less
Em7 E7sus4
Don't be a drag, participate
Asus4 A6
clams on the half shell and roller-skates, roller-skates
[Chorus]
Em7 E7sus4 Asus4
Good times, these are the good times
A6 Em7 E7sus4 Asus4 A6
Leave your cares behind, these are the good times
Em7 E7sus4 Asus4
Good times, these are the good times
A6 Em7 E7sus4 Asus4 A6
Our new state of mind, these are the good times

VERSE 1
A E D A
Mother told me, yes she told me, I'd meet girls like you.
E D A
She also told me, stay away, you'll never know what you'll catch
D E A
Just the other day I heard of a soldier's falling off
D E A
Some Indonesian junk that's going 'round
CHORUS

Mommy's all right, daddy's all right, they just seem a little weird

VERSE 2
Father says your mother's right, she's really up on things.
Before we married, mommy served in the WACs in the Philippines.
Now I had heard the WACs recruited old maids for the war
But mom isn't one of those, I've known her all these years.
CHORUS
Mommy's all right, daddy's all right, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, Surrender, but don't give yourself away....away, away--ay-ay-ay
VERSE 3
Whatever happened to all this season's loosers of the year?
Every time I got to thinking 'Where'd they disappear?'
Then I woke up, mom and dad are rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out.
CHORUS
Mommy's all right, daddy's all right, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, Surrender, but don't give yourself away....away, away--ay-ay-ay

Long as I remember the rain been comin' down

Good men through the ages

Tryin' to find the sun

And I wonder still I wonder
Em G
Who'll stop the rain
G C G
I went down Virginia seeking shelter from the storm

Five-year plans and new deals

Wrapped in golden chains

Who'll stop the rain...

E A7
It ain't my fault, so don't blame me
E B
I swear I just came here to unwind and have one drink
E A7
The way it looks ain't what you think
E B | E
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
E
Honey, no, I don't miss him
A
In fact, it slipped my mind
E B7 | E
There's a hole in the bottle of wine
Verse 2]
E A7
I keep my cool, play by all the rules
E B
I swear ten minutes ago that bottle was full
E A7
I won't cry about love gone wrong
E B
'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
And it's barely even open
Chorus
You may ask me where it's goin'
But I can't even find
The hole in the bottle of wine

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

Sunday morning, rain is falling
Steal some covers, share some skin (I like that)
Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable
You twist to fit the mold that I am in
But things just get so crazy
Living life gets hard to do
And I would gladly hit the road, get up and go if I knew
That someday it would lead me back to you
That someday it would lead me back to you (oh, someday)
That may be all I need
In darkness, she is all I see (all I see)
Come and rest your bones with me
Driving slow on Sunday morning
And I never want to leave
Yeah, fingers trace your every outline, oh yeah, yeah
Yeah, paint a picture with my hand, oh, woah
And back and forth we sway like branches in a storm
Change the weather, still together when it ends
That may be all I need (all I need)
In darkness, she is all I see
Come and rest your bones with me
Driving slow on Sunday morning
And I never want to leave
