And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit right to the top,
Don't hold back

Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain check

I don't ever want to let you down

I don't ever want to leave this town

'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night...

I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was

Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?

So this is where you fell, and I am left to sell

[Verse 1]
G#m E
I look up from the ground to see your sad and teary eyes
B F#/A#
You look away from me and I see there’s something you're trying to hide
G#m E
And I, reach for your hand but it's cold, you pull away again
B F#/A#
And I, wonder, what’s on your mind-ind-ind
[Pre-chorus]
E G#m
And then you say to me “you made a dumb mistake”
F# F#
You start to tremble and your voice begins to break
E G#m
You say the cigarettes on the counter weren’t your friends, they were my mates
F# F#
And I feel the colour draining from my face
N.C.
And my friends said…
[Chorus]
G#m E
I know you love her but it’s over mate
B F#/A#
It doesn’t matter, put the phone away
G#m E
It’s never easy to walk away
B F#/A#
But let her go oh oh oh
N.C.
It’ll be alright
[Verse 2]
G#m E
So I asked to look back at all the messages you’d sent
B F#/A#
And I know it wasn’t right but it was fucking with my head
G#m E
And everything deleted like the past year was gone
B F#/A#
And when I touched your face I could tell you're moving on
[Pre-chorus]
E G#m
But it’s not the fact that you kissed him yesterday
F# F#
It’s the feeling of betrayal, that I just can't seem to shake
E G#m
And everything I know tells me that I should walk away
F# F#
But I just want to stay…
N.C.
And my friends said…
[Chorus]
G#m E
I know you love her but it’s over mate
B F#/A#
It doesn’t matter, put the phone away
G#m E
It’s never easy to walk away
B F#/A#
But let her go oh oh oh
N.C.
It’ll be okay
G#m E
It's gonna hurt for a bit of time
B F#/A#
So, bottoms up, let’s forget tonight
G#m E
You’ll find another and you’ll be just fine
B F#
Let her go oh oh oh
[Bridge]
G#m E
But nothing heals
B F#
The past like time
G#m E
And they can't steal
B F#
The love you’re born to find
G#m E
But nothing heals
B F#
The past like time
G#m E
And they can't steal
B F#
The love you’re born to find
[Chorus]
G#m E
I know you love her but it’s over mate
B F#/A#
It doesn’t matter, put the phone away
G#m E
It’s never easy to walk away
B F#/A#
But let her go oh oh oh
N.C.
It’ll be okay
G#m E
It's gonna hurt for a bit of time
B F#/A#
So, bottoms up, let’s forget tonight
G#m E
You’ll find another and you’ll be just fine
B F#
Let her go oh oh oh
[Outro]
G#m E
It’ll be alright
B F#
It’ll be alright
G#m E
It’ll be alright
B F#
It’ll be alright
G#m
It’ll be alright
G#m B C#
So many people gonna say that they want you
G#m B C#
To try to get you thinking they really care
G#m B C#
But there's nothing like the warmth of the one
B C# D# C#
Who has put in the time and you know he's gonna be there
G#m B C#
Back your border when she knows someone crossed it
G#m B C#
Don't let nobody put you down who you're with
G#m B C#
Take the pain of protecting your name
B C# D#
From the crutch to the cane to the highwire
[Chorus]-
E B
I'm in love with a girl who knows me better
D# G#m
Fell for the woman just when I met her
E B
Took my sweet time when I was bitter
D# G#m
Someone understands
E B
Cause she knows how to treat a fella right
D# G#m
Give me that feeling every night
E B
Wants to make love when I wanna fight
D# G#m
Now someone understand me
E B D# G#m
I'm in love with a girl... I'm in love with
E B D# G#m
I'm in love with a girl... I'm in love with
Out the many broken back doors and windows
Through the valley of the love of the lost
Is a hole that is cut to the soles
Falling down from the thrones
Without needing any windows
But you found inner peace for the moment
The moment was over in time
Then it's gone
The hit and run
The victor's fun has a short life
[Chorus]
E D#
Wanna tell you what you do to make you
G#m C#
Practice what you preach
E D# G#m C#
Now I know there's nothing we can't reach
E
Cause a heart can't erase
D#
Once it finds a place
G#m C#
To be warm and welcome
E D#
To be held in shelter
[Chorus]

Womb To Tomb
Verse 1
Lay down you gun, lay down your god
We are but germs on one big rock
The universe is spreading thin
It's up to us to bring it in
My suicide as sacrifice
Would keep the secret locked inside
And so I breathe my second life
Living proof, that love survives
Chorus-
Your life is not your own
From womb to tomb you are bound to others
3X
Verse 2-
There is no I, there is only we
So soon shall this whole wide world see
Around the sun which we believe
Take all but only what you need
Please take these words to paradise
Show them there is more than one good life
We are all one, once every time
We ask why
Chorus
Bridge-
We are here
We are now
We are this moment
We are loud
We are the answer
Of love you're after
There is no one son of god
We all are

Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears /
Go ahead release your fears
Stand up and be counted / Don't be ashamed to cry/ You gotta be
Chorus:
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold You gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm You gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day

Herald what your mother said /
Read the books your father read
Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time
Some may have more cash than you /
Others take a different view
My oh my, hey, hey, hey...

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

(Don't forget about us)
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
My baby boy
Just let it die
With no goodbyes
Details don't matter
We both paid the price
Tears in my eyes
You know sometimes
It'd be like that baby
Now every time I see you
I pretend I'm fine
When I wanna reach out to you
But I turn and I walk and I let it ride
Baby I must confess
We were bigger than anything
Remember us at our best
And don't forget about
[Chorus]
Late nights, playin' in the dark
And wakin' up inside my arms
Boy, you'll always be in my heart and
I can see it in your eyes
You still want it
So don't forget about us
I'm just speaking from experience
Nothing can compare to your first true love
So I hope this will remind you
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us
Oh they say
That you're in a new relationship
But we both know
Nothing comes close to
What we had, it perseveres
That we both can't forget it
How good we used to get it
There's only one me and you
And how we used to shine
No matter what you go through
We are one, that's a fact
That you can't deny
So baby we just can't let
The fire pass us by
Forever we'd both regret
So don't forget about
[Chorus]
And if she's got your head all messed up now
That's the trickery
She'll wanna have like you know how this lovin' used to be
I bet she can't do like me
She'll never be M-C
Baby don't you, don't you forget about us
[Chorus- x2]
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby no
Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
When it's for real, it's forever
So don't forget about us.

Intro- / G - F C / /
Listen, boy, I don't want to see you let
A good thing slip away
You know I don't like watching anybody make
The same mistakes I made
She's a real nice girl and she's always there for you
But a nice girl wouldn't tell you what you should do
/ 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

New York
Verse 1-
New York City makes dreams come true
What a perfect place for my musical debut
I hear the city never sleeps it just keeps rolling on through
So on to Gotham City on a super jet plane I flew
Verse 2
Anticipation and uncertainty, try to get the best of me
This challenge I'm about to face is laced with millions just like me
Who travel from the ends of end to get to where I want to be
Putting all they've got onto one hot shot to prove themselves relentlessly
Pre-chorus-
Rewind, cause I can't focus on these trivial things
Gotta keep my mind in motion, take whatever it brings
Chorus-
Here I am in NYC, the capitol of the world
Far from my hometown Houston, far for this Texas girl
Here I am in Empire City
I'm on top of the world
New York, New York
New York
Verse 3-
Sure ain't pleasant Texas, no friendly passer-bys
Just stressed out suits stressing 'bout their push and go lives
No driving slow on Sunday Mornings or watching clouds go by
Just busy streets with crazy cabbies fighting over traffic lights
Verse 4-
You'd think a Texas Tornado was on a path of destruction
The way the public scurries home after the daily grind function
Some ease the tension with a PBR, the cheapest they make
Some drop mad cash on a bottle now that's extravagant taste
Pre Chorus
Chorus
Verse 1-
C D G Em
There's a boy I know
C D G Em
He's the one I dream of
C D G Em
Looks into my eyes
C D G Em
Takes me to the clouds above
Verse 2-
C D G Em
Ooh, I lose control
C D G Em
Can't seem to get enough
C D G Em
When I wake from dreaming
C D G Em
Tell me is it really love
Chorus-
C D D Em
How will I know?

How will I know?
C D D Em
How will I know?
C D D Em
(Love can be deceiving)
C D D Em
How will I know?
C D G Em
How will I know if he really loves me
C D G Em
I say a prayer with every heart beat
C D G Em
I fall in love whenever we meet
C D G Em
I'm asking you 'cause you know about these things
C D G Em
How will I know if he's thinking of me
C D G Em
I try to phone but I'm too shy (Can't speak)
C D G Em
Falling in love is all bitter sweet
C D G Em
This love is strong why do I feel weak
(Repeat throughout song)

Verse 1: E B C#m A
When you feel all alone
And the world has turned it's back on you
Give me a moment please to tame your wild wild heart
I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you
It's hard to find relief and people can be so cold
When darkness is upon your door and you feel like you can't take anymore
Chorus: E B C#m | A B |
Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you in the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone
Verse 2:
When you feel all alone
And a loyal friend is hard to find
You're caught in a one way street
With the monsters in your head
When hopes and dreams are far away and
You feel like you can't face the day
(Repeat Chorus)
Refrain:
Because there has always been heartache and pain
And when it's all over you'll breathe again
You'll breathe again
Chorus:
G C Em D
If I were a boy
Even just for a day
Em C G D
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted and go
G C Em D
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
Em C G D
I'd kick it with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
etc
Because they'd stick up for me
Chorus-
If I were a boy
I think that I'd understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
cause I know how it hurts
when you lose the one you wanted
cause he's taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed!
verse 2-
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone that its broken
so they think
that I was sleeping alone
I'd put myself first
and make the rules as I go
cause I know that she'll be faithful
waiting for me to come home ( to come home)
Chorus
If I were a boy
I think that I could understand
how it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
when you loose the one you wanted
cause he's taken you for granted
and everything you had got destroyed!
It's a little too late for you to come back
Say its just a mistake
Think I forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
Chorus
But your just a boy
You don't understand (and you don't understand)
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you'll wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you taken her for granted
And everything that you had got destroyed
But your just a boy…

[Verse 1]
Em G
There was a time when I was alone
C G
Nowhere to go and no place to call home
Em G
My only friend was the man in the moon
C G
And even sometimes he would go away to
Em G
Then one night as I closed my eyes
C G
I saw a shadow flying high
Em G
He came to me with the sweetest smile
C G
Told me he wanted to talk for a while
Em G
He said Peter Pan that's what they call me.
C G
I promise that you'll never be lonely.
Am D
And ever since that day
[Chorus]
Em G
I am a lost boy from Neverland
C G
Usually hangin' out with Peter Pan
Em G
And when we're bored we play in the woods
C G
Always on the run from Captain Hook
Em G C G
Run, run, lost boy they say to me
Em G C G
Away from all of reality
Em G
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
C G
And lost boys like me are free
Em G
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
C G
And lost boys like me are free
[Verse 2]
Em G
He sprinkled me in pixie dust and told me to believe
C G
Believe in him, and believe in me
Em G
Together we will fly away in a cloud of green
C G
To your beautiful destiny
Em G
As we soared above the town that never loved me
C G
I realized I finally had a family
Em G
Soon enough we reached Neverland
C G
Peacefully my feet hit the sand
Am D
And ever since that day
[Chorus]
Em G
I am a lost boy, from Neverland

Usually hangin' out with Peter Pan

And when we're bored we play in the woods

Always on the run from Captain Hook

Run, run, lost boy they say to me

Even Captain Hook, you are my perfect storybook

Forever a lost boy at last

We'd never let go and we'd never be over

verse1 When a man loves a woman, can't keep his mind on nothing else
F G C G
He'll trade the world for the good thing he's found
C G/B Am C7/G
If she's bad he can't see it she can do no wrong
F G C G
Turn his back on his best friend if he put her down

Tryin' to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comfort, sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way it ought to be

G F
Well, if you don't have the answer, why you still standing here?
C
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Just walk away
Verse 2-
I waited here for you like a kid waiting after school
So tell me how come you never showed
I gave you everything and never asked for anything
And look at me, I'm all alone
So before you start defending, baby
Stop all your pretending

G Am Em C
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
G Am Em C
I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
G Am Em C
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise
G Am Em C
To fly

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.
