Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Am F
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall
Am F
She sees the bartender in a pool of blood
Am F
Cries out My God they killed them all!
C F
Here comes the story of the Hurricane,
G C F
The man the authorities came to blame
Dm C
For something that he never done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell but one time
Am F C G
He could have been the champion of the world
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 2]
Am F
Three bodies lyin’ there does Patty see
Am F
And another man named Bello, movin’ around mysteriously
Am F
I didn’t do it, he says, and he throws up his hands
Am F
I was only robbin’ the register, I hope you understand
C F
I saw them leavin’, he says, and he stops
G C F
One of us had better call up the cops
Dm C
And so Patty calls the cops
Dm C Em
And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin’
Am F C G
In the hot New Jersey night
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 3]
Am F
Meanwhile, far away in another part of town
Am F
Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin’ around
Am F
Number one contender for the middleweight crown
Am F
Had no idea what kinda shit was about to go down
C F
When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road
G C F
Just like the time before and the time before that
Dm C
In Paterson that’s just the way things go
Dm C Em
If you’re black you might as well not show up on the street
Am F C G
’Less you wanna draw the heat
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 4]
Am F
Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops
Am F
Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowlin’ around
Am F
He said, I saw two men runnin’ out, they looked like middleweights
Am F
They jumped into a white car with out-of-state plates
C F
And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head
G C F
Cop said, Wait a minute, boys, this one’s not dead
Dm C
So they took him to the infirmary
Dm C Em
And though this man could hardly see
Am F C G
They told him that he could identify the guilty men
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 5]
Am F
Four in the mornin’ and they haul Rubin in
Am F
Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs
Am F
The wounded man looks up through his one dyin’ eye
Am F
Says, Wha’d you bring him in here for? He ain’t the guy!
C F
Yes, here’s the story of the Hurricane
G C F
The man the authorities came to blame
Dm C
For somethin’ that he never done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
Am F C G
The champion of the world
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 6]
Am F
Four months later, the ghettos are in flame
Am F
Rubin’s in South America, fightin’ for his name
Am F
While Arthur Dexter Bradley’s still in the robbery game
Am F
And the cops are puttin’ the screws to him, lookin’ for somebody to blame
C F
Remember that murder that happened in a bar?
G C F
Remember you said you saw the getaway car?
Dm C
You think you’d like to play ball with the law?
Dm C Em
Think it might-a been that fighter that you saw runnin’ that night?
Am F C G
Don’t forget that you are white
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 7]
Am F
Arthur Dexter Bradley said, I’m really not sure
Am F
Cops said, A poor boy like you could use a break
Am F
We got you for the motel job and we’re talkin’ to your friend Bello
Am F
Now you don’t wanta have to go back to jail, be a nice fellow
C F
You’ll be doin’ society a favor
G C F
That sonofa is brave and gettin’ braver
Dm C
We want to put his ass in stir
Dm C Em
We want to pin this triple murder on him
Am F C G
He ain’t no Gentleman Jim
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 8]
Am F
Rubin could take a man out with just one punch
Am F
But he never did like to talk about it all that much
Am F
It’s my work, he’d say, and I do it for pay
Am F
And when it’s over I’d just as soon go on my way
C F
Up to some paradise
G C F
Where the trout streams flow and the air is nice
Dm C
And ride a horse along a trail
Dm C Em
But then they took him to the jailhouse
Am F C G
Where they try to turn a man into a mouse
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 9]
Am F
All of Rubin’s cards were marked in advance
Am F
The trial was a pig-circus, he never had a chance
Am F
The judge made Rubin’s witnesses drunkards from the slums
Am F
To the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum
C F
And to the black folks he was just a crazy er
G C F
No one doubted that he pulled the trigger
Dm C
And though they could not produce the gun
Dm C Em
The D.A. said he was the one who did the deed
Am F C G
And the all-white jury agreed
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 10]
Am F
Rubin Carter was falsely tried
Am F
The crime was murder one, guess who testified?
Am F
Bello and Bradley and they both baldly lied
Am F
And the newspapers, they all went along for the ride
C F
How can the life of such a man
G C F
Be in the palm of some fool’s hand?
Dm C
To see him obviously framed
Dm C Em
Couldn’t help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
Am F C G
Where justice is a game
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 11]
Am F
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties
Am F
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
Am F
While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell
Am F
An innocent man in a living hell
C F
That’s the story of the Hurricane
G C F
But it won’t be over till they clear his name
Dm C
And give him back the time he’s done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
Am F C G
The champion of the world

Do you remember girl
I was the one who gave you your first kiss
Cause I remember girl
I was the one who said put your lips like this
Even before all the fame and
People screaming your name
Girl I was there when you were my baby
[Chorus-]
[Usher-]
It started when we were younger
You were mine my boo
Now another brother's taking over
But its still in your eyes my boo
Even though we used to argue it's alright
I know we haven't seen each other
In awhile but you will always be my boo
[Alicia-]
I was in love with you when we were younger
You were mine my boo
And I see it from time to time
I still feel like my boo
And I can see it no matter
How I try to hide my boo
Even though there's another man who's in my life
You will always be my boo
[Alicia Verse-]
Yes I remember boy
Cause after we kissed
I could only think about your lips
Yes I remember boy
The moment I knew you were the one
I could spend my life with
Even before all the fame
And people screaming your name
I was there and you were my baby
[Chorus-]
[Usher-]
It started when we were younger
You were mine my boo
Now another brother's taking over
But its still in your eyes my boo
Even though we used to argue it's alright

Been two years since I let you go
I could've listened to a joke for rock n roll
And muscle cars drove a truck right through my heart
On my birthday you sang me a heart of gold
With a guitar hummin and no clothes
This time I'm not leavin without you
Sit back down where you belong
In the corner of my bar with your high heels on
Sit back down on the couch where we
Made love for the first time and you said to me
There's something something about this place
Something about lonely nights and my lipstick on your face
Something something about my cool Nebraska guy
Yeah something something about you and I (little monsters!)

Verse 1 Like a rainy Sunday mornin'
Makes me wanna stay in bed twisted up all day long
You're my inspiration, girl
You take me places, put the words right into these songs
Stealin' kisses under cover, babe
See forever when I see your face
And I swear, God made you for me
Chous: You make it easy lovin' up on you
Make it easy with every little thing you do
You're my sunshine in the darkest days
My better half, my savin' grace
You make me who I wanna be
You make it easy
Verse 2: You took all my rough around the edges
Never let it ruffle up your feathers, angel
Yeah, I'm down for life, you got me wrapped around your finger
And I like it just in case you can't tell
Chorus
Stealin' kisses under cover, babe
See forever when I see your face
And I swear, God made you for me

Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in disguise
Am F C Am
Coming out, coming out, coming out
Am F C Am
A domesticated girl that's all you ask of me
Am F C Am
Darling it is no joke, this is lycanthropy
Am F C Am
The moon's awake now, with eyes wide open
Am F C Am
My body's craving, so feed the hungry
Am F C Am
I've been devoting myself to you Monday to Monday and Friday to Friday
Am F C Am
Not getting enough retribution or decent incentives to keep me at it
Am F C Am
I'm starting to feel just a little abused like a coffee machine in an office
Am F C Am
So I'm gonna go somewhere cozy to get me a lover and tell you all about it
[Chorus]
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in your closet
Am F C Am
Open up and set her free
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in your closet
Am F C Am
Let it out so it can breathe
[Interlude]
Am F C Am x2
[Verse 2]
Am F C Am
Sitting across a bar, staring right at her prey
Am F C Am
It's going well so far, she's gonna get her way
Am F C Am
Nocturnal creatures are not so prudent
Am F C Am
The moon's my teacher, and I'm her student
Am F C Am
To locate the single men, I got on me a special radar
Am F C Am
And the fire department hotline in case I get in trouble later
Am F C Am
Not looking for cute little divos or rich city guys that just want to enjoy
Am F C Am
But having a very good time and behave very bad in the arms of a boy
[Chorus]
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in disguise
Am F C Am
Coming out, coming out, coming out
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise

S.O.S. she's in disguise

There's a she wolf in disguise

Am C G D
Hey girl, is he everything you wanted in a man?
Am
You know I gave you the world
C G D
You had me in the palm of your hand
Am
So why your love went away
C G D
I just can't seem to understand
Am
Thought it was me and you babe
C G
Me and you until at the end
D
But I guess I was wrong
Pre Corus;
Am
Don't want to think about it
C
Don't want to talk about it
G
I'm just so sick about it
D Am
Can't believe it's ending this way
Just so confused about it
C
Feeling the blues about it
G
I just can't do without ya
D Am
Tell me is this fair?
Corus-
C G
Is this the way it's really going
D Am
Is this how we say goodbye?
C G
Should've known better when you came around
D Am
That you were gonna make me cry

It's breaking my heart to watch you run around

'Cause I know that you're living a lie
C G D
That's okay baby 'cause in time you will find...

Am C
What goes around, goes around, goes around
G D
Comes all the way back around
Repeat....Same Thing
Now girl, I remember everything that you claimed
You said that you were moving on now
And maybe I should do the same
Funny thing about that is
I was ready to give you my name
Thought it was me and you, babe
And now, it's all just a shame
And I guess I was wrong
Repeat Pre corus And Corus
Am C D
What goes around comes around.
Am C
What goes around comes around
G D
You shouldn't know that
What goes around comes around
You shouldn't know that
Repeat Pre corus and Corus
Am
You spend your nights alone
C
And he never comes home
G
And every time you call him
D
All you get's a busy tone
Am
I heard you found out
C
That he's doing to you
G
What you did to me
D
Ain't that the way it goes
Same thing-
You cheated girl
My heart bleeds girl
So it goes without saying that you left me feeling hurt
Just a classic case
A scenario
Tale as old as time
Girl you got what you deserved
D Am C G
And now you want somebody
To cure the lonely nights
You wish you had somebody
That could come and make it right
D Am
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey
(What goes around comes back around)
I thought I told ya, hey

Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leavin' my life in your hands
People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Risking it all in a glance
And how you got me blind is still a mystery
I can't get you out of my head
Don't care what is written in your history
As long as you're here with me
[Chorus 1] C G Em D
I don't care who you are
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me
Who you are
Where you're from
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me
[Verse 2]
Every little thing that you have said and done
Feels like it's deep within me
Doesn't really matter if you're on the run
It seems like we're meant to be
[Chorus]

I've tried to hide it so that no one knows

to your callous mind

you cut me down

Very superstitious, ladders bout' to fall.
Thirteen month old baby, broke the lookin' glass.
Seven years of bad luck; the good things in your past.

When you be-lieve in things,
B7 Bb13#11 A7
That you don't under-stand, then you suffer.

F G Am
You and I
Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons
Packed up and ready to go
Heard of some gravesites out by the highway
A place where nobody knows
The sound of gunfire off in the distance
I'm getting used to it now
Lived in a brownstone, lived in a ghetto
I've lived all over this town
/ Am - - AmAm7 / -
{Refrain}
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
This ain't no fooling around
No time for dancing or lovey dovey
I ain't got time for that now
/ E - - - / -
Transmit the message to the receiver
Hope for an answer some day
I got three passports, a couple of visas
You don't even know my real name
High on a hillside, the trucks are loading
Everything's ready to roll
I sleep in the daytime, I work in the nighttime
I might not ever get home
{Refrain}
...This ain't no mudd club, or CBGB...
Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit?
Heard about Pittsburgh, PA?
You oughta know not to stand by the window
Somebody see you up there
I got some groceries, some peanut butter
To last a couple of days
But I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no headphones
Ain't got no records to play
{As refrain}
Why stay in college? Why go to night school?
Gonna be different this time
Can't write a letter, can't send no postcard
I ain't got no time for that now
Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock
We blended in with the crowd
We got computers, we're tapping phone lines
I know that that ain't allowed
We dress like students, we dress like housewives
Or in a suit and a tie
I changed my hairstyle so many times now
I don't know what I look like
You make me shiver, I feel so tender
We make a pretty good team
Don't get exhausted, I'll do some driving
You ought to get you some sleep
Burned all my notebooks, what good are notebooks
They won't help me survive
My chest is aching, burns like a furnace
The burning keeps me alive

you can use the second fill in the intro where it goes c-csus4
(verse 1)
G
Sittin on a bench at West Town mall,
C-Csus4
He sat down in his overalls, and asked me,
C-Csus4
You waitin on a woman,
G
I nodded yes n' how bout you,
C-Csus4
He said son since 1952, I've been,
C-Csus4
Waitin on a woman
(chorus)
Am (G)
When I picked her up for our first date,
F
I told her I'd be there at eight,
C G C
And she came down the stairs at 8-30,
Am (G)
She said I'm sorry that I took so long,
F
Didn't like a thing that I tried on,
C F C
But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty,
Dm C-F
Yea she'll take her time, but I don't mind,
C-Csus4= 2x's
Waitin on a woman
(verse 2)
He said the wedding took a year to plan,
You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous,
Waitin on a woman
And he nudged my arm like old men do, and said
I'll say this about the honeymoon, it was worth it,
Waitin on a woman
(chorus)
Am (G)
And I don't guess we'd been anywhere
F
She hasn't made us late I swear,
C G C
Sometimes she does it just cause she can do it,
Am (G)
Boy it's just a fact of life,
F
it's be the same with your young wife,
C F C
Might as well go on and get used to it,
Dm C-F
she'll take her time, cause you don't mind,
C
Waitin on a woman
( lead - G - C - G - C )
(pre-cho)
Am (G)
I've read somewhere statistics show,
F
The mans always the first to go,
C G C (C/B)
And that makes sense cause I know she won't be ready,
Am (G)
So when it finally comes my time,
F
And I get to the other side,
C F C
I'll find myself a bench if they got any,
Dm C-F
I hope she takes her time, cause I don't mind,
C
Waitin on a woman,
Dm C-F
Honey take your time, cause I don't mind,
C-Csus4
waitin on a woman,

There's a new wind blowin' like I've never known
I'm breathin' deeper than I've ever done
And it sure feels good to finally feel the way I do
And I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you
And I'm lettin' go of all my lonely yesterdays
I've forgiven myself for the mistakes I've made
Now there's just one thing, the only thing I wanna do
And I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you

When you put your arms around me,

I couldn't walk a straight line, even if I wanted to
I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Sometimes it's hard for me to understand
But you're teachin' me to be a better man
I don't want to take this life for granted like I used to do
No, I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you
I'm ready to love somebody, love somebody like you
I wanna love some body, love somebody like you

Whatever...
Dre, just let it run
Aiyyo turn the beat up a little bit
Aiyyo... this song is for anyone... fuck it
Just shut up and listen, aiyyo...
I sit back with this pack of Zig Zags and this bag
Of this weed it gives me the shit needed to be
The most meanest MC on this - on this Earth
And since birth I've been cursed with this curse to just curse
And just blurt this berserk and bizarre shit that works
And it sells and it helps in itself to relieve
All this tension dispensing these sentences
Getting this stress that's been eating me recently off of this chest
And I rest again peacefully (peacefully)...
But at least have the decency in you
To leave me alone, when you freaks see me out
In the streets when I'm eating or feeding my daughter
Do not come and speak to me (speak to me)...
I don't know you and no,
I don't owe you a motherfucking thing
I'm not Mr. N'Sync, I'm not what your friends think
I'm not Mr. Friendly, I can be a prick
If you tick me my tank is on empty (is on empty)...
No patience is in me and if you offend me
I'm lifting you 10 feet (lifting you 10 feet)... in the air
I don't care who was there and who saw me destroy you
Go call you a lawyer, file you a lawsuit
I'll smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe
I'm tired of all you (of all you)...
I don't mean to be mean but that's all I can be is just me
[Chorus-]
And I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
Radio won't even play my jam
'Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
I don't know it's just the way I am
Sometimes I just feel like my father,
I hate to be bothered
With all of this nonsense it's constant
And, Oh, it's his lyrical content -
- the song 'Guilty Conscience' has gotten such rotten responses
And all of this controversy circles me
And it seems like the media immediately
Points a finger at me (finger at me)...
So I point one back at 'em, but not the index or pinkie
Or the ring or the thumb, it's the one you put up
When you don't give a fuck, when you won't just put up
With the bullshit they pull, 'cause they full of shit too
When a dude's getting bullied and shoots up his school
And they blame it on Marilyn (on Marilyn)... and the heroin
Where were the parents at? And look where it's at
Middle America, now it's a tragedy
Now it's so sad to see, an upper class city
Having this happening (this happening)...
Then attack Eminem 'cause I rap this way (rap this way)...
But I'm glad 'cause they feed me the fuel that I need for the fire
To burn and it's burning and I have returned
[Chorus-]
And I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
Radio won't even play my jam
'Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
I don't know it's just the way I am
I'm so sick and tired of being admired
That I wish that I would just die or get fired
And dropped from my label, let's stop with the fables
I'm not gonna be able to top on My Name is...
And pigeon-holed into some pop-py sensation
That got me rotation at rock'n'roll stations
And I just do not got the patience (got the patience)...
To deal with these cocky Caucasians who think
I'm some wigger who just tries to be black 'cause I talk
With an accent, and grab on my balls, so they always keep asking
The same fucking questions (fucking questions)...
What school did I go to, what hood I grew up in
The why, the who what when, the where, and the how
'Til I'm grabbing my hair and I'm tearing it out
'Cause they driving me crazy (driving me crazy)... I can't take it
I'm racing, I'm pacing, I stand and I sit
And I'm thankful for every fan that I get
But I can't take a shit, in the bathroom
Without someone standing by it
No I won't sign your autograph
You can call me an asshole I'm glad
[Chorus-]
'Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
Radio won't even play my jam
'Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
I don't know it's just the way I am

But down to earth
If you choose to walk away, don't walk away
It's in the palm of your hand now baby
It's a yes or no, no maybe
So just be sure before you give it all to me
All to me, give it all to me
So you wanna play with magic
Boy, you should know what you're falling for
Baby do you dare to do this?
Cause I'm coming at you like a dark horse

Rap part
(Same chords as the verse)
Uh
She's a beast
I call her Karma (come back)
She eats your heart out
Like Jeffrey Dahmer (woo)
Be careful
Try not to lead her on
Shorty's heart is on steroids
Cause her love is so strong
You may fall in love
When you meet her
If you get the chance you better keep her
She's sweet as pie but if you break her heart
She'll turn cold as a freezer
That fairy tale ending with a knight in shining armor
She can be my Sleeping Beauty
I'm gon' put her in a coma
Woo!
Fmaj
Damn I think I love her
Cmaj
Shorty so bad, I'm sprung and I don't care
Am7
She ride me like a roller coaster

Her love is like a drug

But lil' mama so dope

Chorus
So you wanna play with magic
Boy, you should know what you're falling for (you should know)
Baby do you dare to do this?
Cause I'm coming at you like a dark horse (like a dark horse)

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,
G D A Asus A Asus
Tangled up in blue.
Em C
If I could tell the world just one thing
G D
It would be we're all okay
Em C
And not to worry because worry is wasteful
G D
And useless in times like these
Em C
I won't be made useless
G D
I won't be idle with dispair
Em C
I'll gather myself around my faith
G D
For light does the darkness most fear
(Chorus)
G C
My hands are small, I know
G Am
But they're not yours, they are my own
G Am
But they're not yours, they are my own
Em D Em
And I am never broken
C
Poverty stole your golden shoes
G D
It didn't steal your laughter
Em C
And heartache came to visit me
G D
But I knew it wasn't ever after
Em C
We'll fight, not out of spite
G D
For someone must stand up for what's right
Em C
'Cause where there's a man who has no voice
G D
There ours shall go singing
G C
My hands are small, I know
G Am
But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own
Em D G
And I am never broken
D C D G
In the end only kindness matters
D C D
In the end only kindness matters
Em C G D
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
Em C G D
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
Em C G D
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

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.
Solo- (tabbed as if you still have the capo on)

How we met and the sparks flew instantly

Hold me closer and I feel no pain,

Tender love is blind, it requires a dedication
All this love we feel needs no conversation
We ride it together, uh huh
Makin' love with each other, uh huh

Islands in the stream, that is what we are
No one in between, how can we be wrong

Sail away with me to another world
And we rely on each other, uh huh

From one lover to another, uh huh
[Verse]
I can't live without you if the love was gone
Ev'rything is nothing if you got no one
And you did walk in the night
Slowly losin' sight of the real thing
But that won't happen to us and we got no doubt
Too deep in love and we got no way out
And the message is clear, this could be the year
For the real thing
[Pre-Chorus] Fmaj7 Fm C /
No more will you cry. Baby I will hurt you never
We start and end as one in love forever we can
Ride it together, uh huh
Makin' love with each other, uh huh

Sail away with me to another world

[Chorus]
Am G
Take a look at my girlfriend
F Em G
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Am G
Not much of a girlfriend
F Em G
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
Verse-
Am G F Em
Am G
It's been some time since we last spoke
F Em
This is gonna sound like a bad joke
Am G
But momma I fell in love again
F Em
It's safe to say I have a new girlfriend
The rest is played the same way as above.
And I know it sounds so old
But cupid got me in a chokehold
And I'm afraid I might give in
Towels on the mat my white flag is wavin'
I mean she even cooks me pancakes
And Alka Seltzer when my tummy aches
If that ain't love then I don't know what love is
We even got a secret handshake
And she loves the music that my band makes
I know I'm young but if I had to choose her or the sun
I'd be one nocturnal son of a gun
(ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
[Chorus]
Take a look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
Take a look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
[Verse]
It's been awhile since we talked last and I'm tryin' hard not to talk fast
But dad I'm finally thinkin' I may have found the one
Type of girl that will make you way proud of your son
And I know you heard the last song about the girls that didn't last long
But I promise this is on a whole new plane
I can tell by the way she says my name (ba ba da da)
I love it when she calls my phone
She even got her very own ringtone
If that ain't love then I don't know what love is (ba ba da da)
It's gonna be a long drive home but I know as soon as I arrive home
And I open the door take off my coat and throw my bag on the floor
She'll be back into my arms once more for sure
[Chorus]
Take a look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
[Bridge]
She's got a smile that would make the most senile
Annoying old man bite his tongue
I'm not done
She's got eyes comparable to sunrise
And it doesn't stop there
Man I swear
She's got porcelain skin of course she's a ten
And now she's even got her own song
But movin' on
She's got the cutest laugh I ever heard
And we can be on the phone for three hours
Not sayin' one word
And I would still cherish every moment
And when I start to build my future she's the main component
Call it dumb call it luck call it love or whatever you call it but
Everywhere I go I keep her picture in my wallet like here
[Chorus]
Take a look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
Take a look at my girlfriend
She's the only one I got (ba ba da da)
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot (ba ba da da, ba ba da da)
Verse 1: Am D G Em
You're all alone at a party, you wanna dance with somebody
But you ain't got a clue how to ask
You and your girl had a fight and now she's sayin' goodbye
She ran upstairs and packed her bags
[Pre-Chorus]
It could be rainin' on your perfect vacation
You could be stressed about your work situation /
Ain't gotta listen to me, but all I'm sayin'
[Chorus]
Ain't nothing that a beer can't fix
Ain't no pain, it can't wash away
From the moment that it hits your lips
Makes those clouds look a little less grey
Oh, you could be lonely or heartbroken
Or hungover from the night before
Turn that frown into a smile real quick
There ain't nothing that a beer can't fix
Verse 2:
You're on a lake an you're fishing It's hot and all that you're getting
is a little nibble here and there
You're sitting watching your team losing that championship ring
and it's feeling like life ain't fair
Pre Chorus:
It could be rainin' on your perfect vacation
You could be stressed about your work situation
Ain't gotta save it for a special occasion
Last Chorus:
Ain't nothing that a beer can't fix
Ain't no pain, it can't wash away, no
From the moment that it hits your lips
Makes those clouds look a little less grey
Oh, you could be lonely heartbroken
Or hungover from the night before
Am D
Turn that frown into a smile real quick (so quick)

It might take one or it might take six

Verse 1-
Em Am
Steve walks warily down the street, with the brim pulled way down low
Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet, Machine guns ready to go
C G
Are you ready, Are you ready for this
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
C G Am B
Out of the doorway the bullets rip, To the sound of the beat

How do you think I'm going to get along, Without you, when you're gone

Are you happy, are you satisfied
How long can you stand the heat
C G Am B
Out of the doorway the bullets rip, To the sound of the beat

Chorus-

There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man, And bring him to the ground
You can beat him, You can cheat him, You can treat him bad and leave him..
When he's down

I'm standing on my own two feet

Out of the doorway the bullets rip, Repeating the sound of the beat

with tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,

a girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

Verse 1: G | G | Am | C D
You're sweet as a honeybee, but like a honeybee stings,
You've gone and left my heart in pain.
All you left is our favorite song, The one we danced to all night long.
It used to bring sweet memories, Of a tender love that used to be.
Chorus 1: G | D | Am | D C
Now it's the same old song,
But with a different meaning, since you been gone.
It's the same old song,
But with a different meaning, since you been gone.
Verse 2: G | G | Am | C D
Sentimental fool am I,
To hear an old love song and wanna cry.
But the melody keeps haunting me,
Re-minding me, how in love we used to be.
Keep hearing the part that used to touch our hearts,
Staying to-gether forever, darling, breaking up never.
Chorus 1: G | D | Am | D C
Verse 3: G | G | Am | C D
Precious memories keep a lingering on,
Every time I hear our favorite song.
Now you've gone, left this emptiness,
I only reminisce the happiness we spent.
We used to dance to the music, (dance to the music),
Make ro-mance to the music, (make ro-mance to the music).
Chorus 3:
G Bm Am D
Watching every motion in my foolish lover's game
G Bm Am D
On this endless ocean finally lovers know no shame
Am7 C D
Turning and returning to some secret place inside
G Bm Am D
Watching in slow motion as you turn around and say
G Bm Am D
Take my breath away
G Bm Am D
Take my breath away
G Bm Am D
Watching I keep waiting still anticipating love
G Bm Am D
Never hesitating to become the fated ones
Am7 C D
Turning and returning to some secret place to hide
G Bm Am D
Watching in slow motion as you turn to me and say, my love
G Bm Am D
Take my breath away
G Bm Am D
Take my breath away
F#m D C G
Through the hourglass I saw you. In time you slipped away.
F#m D C G
When the mirror crashed I called you and turned to hear you say
C D
If only for today I am unafraid
G Bm Am D
Take my breath away
G Bm Am Eb
Take my breath away
Bb Dm Cm F
Watching every motion in this foolish lover's game
Bb Dm Cm F
Haunted by the notion somewhere there's a love in flames
Cm7 Eb F
Turning and returning to some secret place inside
Bb Dm Cm F
Watching in slow motion as you turn my way and say, my love
Bb Dm Cm F
Take my breath away
Bb Dm Cm F
Take my breath away
