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

Some Indonesian junk that's going 'round
CHORUS

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

VERSE 1 [Am Em Em Am]
Dig if u will the picture
Of u and I engaged in a kiss
The sweat of your body covers me
Can u my darling
Can u picture this?
VRESE 2 [Am Em Em Am]
Dream if u can a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat
The heat between me and you
CHORUS [Am Em Em Am]
How can u just leave me standing?
Alone in a world that's so cold?
Maybe I'm just 2 demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father 2 bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied
Why do we scream at each other
This is what it sounds like when doves cry
INTERLUDE F F G F F F G
VRESE 3 [Am Em Em Am]
Touch if u will my stomach
Feel how it trembles inside
You've got the butterflies all tied up
Don't make me chase you
Even doves have pride
[Chorus] x2

I drove for miles and miles And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow I want more
[Chorus] D A Bm A D A Bm G D A Bm G

Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved And she will be loved

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful

You can come anytime you want

These arms of mine, they are longing
D A
Longing to hold you
[Chorus]
A A+ A6 A7 D
And if you . . . would let them . . . hold . . . you
E#7 A
Oh, how grateful I will be
D E A A7 (trill)
Come home, baby, just be my woman, just be my lovin'
D E A A7
Oh, I need somebody to treat me right
D E A A7 (trill)
Oh, I need two lovin' arms to hold me tight
D E A A7
And I need your tender lips to hold me, oh hold me tight
G
Anytime I need to see your face, I just close my eyes,
and I am taken to a place where your crystal mind
C
and magenta fellings take up shelter in the
base of my spine, shade like a chick of cherry cola.
G
I don?t need to try to explain. I just hold on tight,
and if it happens again, I might move so slightly
C
to the arms and the lips and the face of the human
cannon-ball that I need to. I want you.
Kind of bridge-
D C
Come stand a little bit closer.Breathe in and get a bit higher
D C
You?ll never know what hit you when I get to you.....
Chorus-
Bb C G
Ooh, I want you. I don?t know if I need you, but
Bb C G
ooh, I?d die to find out.
Bb C G
Ooh, I want you. I don?t know if I need you, but
Bb C G5
ooh, I?d die to find out.
Verse 2-
I?m the kind of person who endorses a deep commitment.
Getting tough and getting perfect is what I live
for. But a look and then the smell of perfume, it?s like I?m
down on the floor and I don?t know what I?m in for.
Conversation, there?s a time and place in the interaction
of a lover, and I make it the time I?m talking,
using the words, using words can be likened to a
deep sea diver who is swimming with a raincoat.
Bridge (kind of)-
D C
Come stand a little bit closer.Breathe in and get a bit higher
D C
You?ll never know what hit you when I get to you.....
Chorus-
Bb C G
Ooh, I want you. I don?t know if I need you, but
Bb C G
ooh, I?d die to find out.
Bb C G
Ooh, I want you. I don?t know if I need you, but

Ooh ah,,,, ooh ah.
Verse 1 (You know it)
Chorus-

Ooh, I want you. I don?t know if I need you, but

ooh, I?d die to find out.
Bb C G
Ooh, I want you. I don?t know if I need you, but
Bb C G
ooh, I?d die to find out. So can?t we find out?
Really weird thing-
Bb5 C5 G5 Bb5 C5 G5
Softly as the animals fall so far ahead.
Bb5 C5 G5 Bb5 C5 G5
Softly as the animals fall so far ahead.

[Verse 1] C Em Am G 4X
When you try your best but you don't succeed,
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep,
Stuck in reverse.
[Verse 2]
And the tears come streaming down your face,
When you lose something you can't replace,
When you love someone but it goes to waste,
Could it be worse?
[Chorus] F / C G
Lights will guide you home,
And ignite your bones,
And I will try to fix you,
[Verse 3]
High up above or down below,
When you're too in love to let it go,
But if you never try you'll never know,
Just what you're worth.
[Chorus].
[Bridge] C Em Am G 4X
Tears stream, down your face,
When you lose something you cannot replace.
Tears stream, down your face and I (hold).
Tears stream, down your face,
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes.
Tears stream, down your face and I (hold).
[Chorus] (single strumming)

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

Zephyr in the sky at night, wonder
Do my tears of mourning
Sink beneath the sun
She`s got herself a universe, gone quickly
For the call of thunder
Threatens everyone
Chorus-
And I feel like I just got home
And I feel
And I feel like I just got home
And I feel
Faster than the speeding light, she`s flying
Trying to remember
Where it all began
She`s got herself a little piece of heaven
Waiting for the time when
Earth shall be as one
Chorus
Quicker than a ray of light (3x)

At this point an acoustic guitar enters strumming the chords. From this
point on, one of the electrics plays the riff during the verses, the part
shown above during the bridges, and strums the chords during the choruses
(Time is wasting..) and solo. The second electric plays the occasional
power chord during verses and bridges and strums along to the choruses.
It also takes the solo-

Fade into you
Strange, you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
A stranger light comes on slowly
A stranger's heart without a home
You put your hands into your head
And then smiles cover your heart

Fade into you

Here's to the ones that we got
Cheers to the wish you were here, but you're not

Of everything we've been through
Toast to the ones here today
Toast to the ones that we lost on the way
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
And the memories bring back, memories bring back you
Verse 1:
There's a time that I remember, when I did not know no pain
When I believed in forever, and everything would stay the same
Now my heart feel like December when somebody say your name

Pre Chorus:
Everybody hurts sometimesEverybody hurts someday, ayy ayy
But everything gon' be alrightGo and raise a glass and say, ayy

Now my heart feel like an ember and it's lighting up the dark
I'll carry these torches for ya that you know I'll never drop, yeah
(D) (A) (F#m) (E)
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?

I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive

I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
G Am Em C
To fly
G Am Em C
To fly
I wish today it will rain all day
Maybe that will kinda make the pain go away
Trying to forgive you for abandoning me
Praying but I think I'm still an angel away
Angel away, yeah strange in a way
Maybe that is why I chase strangers away
They got their guns out aiming at me
But I become near when they aiming at me
Me, me, me against them
Me against enemies, me against friends
Somehow they both seem to become one
A sea full of sharks and they all see blood
They start coming and I start rising
Must be surprising, I'm just summising
Win, thrive, soar, higher, higher, higher
More fire
G Am Em C
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive

Everybody wanna try to box me in
Suffocating everytime it locks me in
Paint they own pictures than they crop me in
But I will remain where the top begins
Cause I am not a word, I am not a line
I am not a girl that can every be defined
I am not fly, I am levitation
I represent an entire generation
I hear the criticism loud and clear
That is how I know that the time is near
So we become alive in a time of fear
And I aint got no muthaf-cking time to spare
Cry my eyes out for days upon days
Such a heavy burden placed upon me

I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive

I work hard speak soft and carry a big stick
I ain't scurr'd I Ain't worr'd About You and your cheap tricks
beat me till i'm numb never will i succomb
patiently I will wait until your tantrum is done
and then step up to the plate i will
stand tall and still spewing bad ass lick
hoping one day it will all pay off
better sooner than later
i'm so ready for take off.

Stranger
Verse 1-
Who is this stranger? I've never laid my eyes on him before
My hearts in danger a naive bull against a matador
Approaching forward, his eyes on me taking control
I'm falling faster, this trance on me I can't ignore
Pre Chorus 1-
But I find myself hanging on to every word,
oh every single word, enounced with hypnotizing charm
His words, they flow like i Have never heard
oh I have never heard, conversation spoken as an art
Chorus-
This man he looks at me and I can see myself tumbling and
When I'm with him I am stumbling as if he's maledicting me
Does he see me, me for me, and if that's true what does he see?
If only love was guaranteed, sometimes I think he's just manipulating me
Verse 2-
Well this phase that I'm in, seems like an everlasting love
But something in me knows, I'm too young, I'm not mature enough
His captive attraction, I'm confined, I'm forced to misjudge
I can't see clearly, one this I know is I must rise above
Pre Chorus 2-
Cause if I don't I know that I will fall too fast
I will fall too soon, too soon to fall to late to flee
He's got me leaning toward him to much askewed
oh twisted and askewed, possessing me with expertise
Chorus-
Outro-
Who gives a shit if I don't know right now? The here and now is fine
Cause he kisses me and I melt to my knees, cause he tells me he is mine
Who is this stranger? my heart's in danger,
I'm falling faster
Who is this stranger? my heart's in danger,
I'm falling, falling, falling, falling, faster...

I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river, and it made me complete

But I can just figure it out and hope and pray

Imagine if the life
That you thought you shared wasn't really there.
It was made up in your mind,
Could be anyone, anywhere,
'Cause you'd been living in a world of your own design, undermined,
In another place, other space in time.
As the dust clears and it all starts to disappear,
It may get harder
'cause you just restarted.
And wherever you are, land on another star!
It may get harder
'cause you just restarted.
You better get real, real, real and realize that the situation's going nowhere.
Because you act so tough I've totally lost control.
So please try to understand that if I could I'd call and I would be there.
And if I didn't hurt so much you know I'd give you it all.
You know I'd give you it all.
Imagine if the friend that you thought you knew wasn't really true!
It just existed in your head, the reflection used wasn't you,
Completely unaware could be anywhere, any time,
'Cause there was shift in the paradigm.
As the dust clears and it all starts to disappear,
It may get harder
'cause you just restarted.
And wherever you are, land on another star!
It may get harder
'cause you just restarted.
You better get real, real, real and realize that the situation's going nowhere.
Because you act so tough I've totally lost control.
So please try to understand that if I could I'd call and I would be there.
And if I didn't hurt so much you know I'd give you it all.
It may get harder
'cause you just restarted.
