Donna Donna

Am E7 Am​ E7 ​
Am Dm Am E7 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​
On a wagon bound for market, there's a calf with mournful eye
Am E7 ​
Am E7 ​Am Dm Am E7​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​Am
high above him there's a swallow, swinging swiftly through the sky

G C ​ G C ​ ​
how the winds are laughing, they laugh with all their might
G C ​ E7 Am ​ ​
laugh and laugh the whole day through and half the summers night
E7 Am​ G7 C ​ ​
Donna donna donna donna, donna donna donna dai
E7 Am​ E7 Am ​ ​
donna donna donna donna, donna donna donna dai

Stop complaining said the farmer, who told you a calf to be


why don't you have wings to fly with, like the swallow so proud and free

Calves are easily bound and slaughtered, never knowing the reason why
but whoever treasures freedom, like the swallow must learn to fly

My Bonnie

C​ F​ C ​
My Bonnie is over the ocean

G7 D7 ​
my Bonnie is over the sea
C​ F​ C ​
my Bonnie is over the ocean

D ​
G7 C ​
oh bring back my Bonnie to me


C7 F ​ D7 ​
Bring back, bring back

G7 C ​
G7 C ​ ​
bring back my Bonnie to me, to me

C7 F ​ D7 ​
bring back, oh, bring back
​C G7 ​
oh, bring back my Bonnie to me

Last night, as I lay on my pillow


last night, as I lay on my bed
last night, as I lay on my pillow
I dreamed that my Bonnie was dead

Bring back, bring back...

The winds have blown over the ocean


the winds have blown over the sea
the winds have blown over the ocean
and brought back my Bonnie to me

Drunken sailor

Dm / C /Dm
What shall we do with the drunken sailor (3x)
​C ​
Dm
early in the morning

Huray and up she rises (3x)


early in the morning

Put him in the longboat till he’s sober

Shave his belly with a rusty razor

Pull out the plug and wet him all over

Heave him by the leg in a running bowlin'


Put him in a cabin with the captain's daughter

That's what we'll do with the drunken sailor

​Thank god I'm a country boy

​A ​D
Well, life on a farm is kind-a-laid back

A G​ E7 ​
ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack
​A ​ D ​ A ​
E7 ​A
it's early to rise, early in the sack: thank God I'm a country boy
A simple kinda life never did me no harm
raisin' me a family and workin' on a farm
my days are filled with an easy country charm:
thank God I'm a country boy

Refr:

E7 A ​
well I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle

E7 A ​
when the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle

A ​D
and life ain't nothin' but a funny funny riddle:
A​ E7​ A ​
thank God I'm a country boy

When the work's all done and the sun's settin' low
I pull out my fiddle and I rosin up the bow
but the kids are asleep so I keep it kinda low:
thank God I'm a country boy
I'd play "Sally Goodin" all day if I could
but the Lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good
so I fiddle when I can and work when I should:
thank God I'm a country boy

refr.

I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels


I never was one of them money hungry fools
I'd rather have my fiddle and my farmin' tools:
thank God I'm a country boy
Yeah, city folk drivin' in a black limousine
a lotta sad people thinkin' that's mighty keen
well folks, let me tell you now exactly what I mean:
I thank God I'm a country boy

refr.

Well, my fiddle was my daddy's till the day he died


and he took me by the hand and held me close to his side
he said: live a good life and play my fiddle with pride:
and thank God you're a country boy
My daddy taught me young how to hunt an how to whittle
he taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
he taught me how to love and how to give just a little:
thank God I'm a country boy

refr.

When I was younger, so much younger than today

I never needed anybody's help in any way

Bm

Em C F G ​ ​ ​

Am F ​
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down and I do appreciate you being 'round
D7 G F ​G ​ ​
help me get my feet back on the ground, won't you please, please help me

And now my life has changed in oh, so many ways


my independence seems to vanish in the haze
but ev'ry now and then I feel so insecure
I know that I just need you like I've never done before

​Rocky Raccoon

Somewhere in the Blackmountain Hills lived a young boy


named Rocky Raccoon
one day his woman ran of with another guy, hit young Rocky in the eye
Rocky didn't like that, he said: I'm gonna get that boy
so one day he walked into town
booked himself a room in the local saloon

Am D7 ​
Rocky Raccoon checked into his room
G7 C ​
only to find Gideon's Bible
Rocky had come equipped with a gun
to shoot of the legs of his rival
his rival it seems had broken his dreams
by stealing the girl of his fancy
her name was Magil, she called herself Lil
but ev'ryone knew her as Nancy

Now she and her man, who called himself Dan


were in the next room at the hoedown
Rocky burst in and grinning a grin
he said: Danny boy, this is a showdown
but Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot
and Rocky collapsed in the corner

Now the doctor came in, stinking of gin


and proceeded to lie on the table
he said: Rocky, you met your match
and Rocky said: doc, it's only a scratch
and I'll be better, I'll be better doc
as soon as I'm able

Now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room


only to find Gideon's bible
Gideon checked out and left it no doubt
to help with good Rocky's revival

there will be an answer, let it be

And when the night is cloudy


there is still a light that shines on me
shine until tomorrow, let it be
I wake up to the sound of music
mother Mary comes to me
speaking words of wisdom, let it be
let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
there will be an answer, let it be
let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Yellow submarine

​D C ​ G Am​ D ​ ​
In the town where I was born, lived a man who sailed to sea

C G ​ Am D ​ ​
and he told us of his life in the land of submarines

C G ​ Am D ​ ​
so we sailed up to the sun, till we found the Sea of Green
C​ G ​ Am D ​ ​
and we lived beneath the waves in our yellow submarine
G Am ​ D G ​ ​
We all live in a yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine
​D G ​
we all live in a yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine

D ​ C ​G ​
And our friends are all on board
Am​ D C G ​ ​ ​
many more of them live next door and the band begins to play

We all live in a yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine


We all live in a yellow submarine, yellow submarine, yellow submarine

As we live a life of ease, ev'ry one of us has all we need


sky of blue and sea of green, in our yellow submarine
​We can work it out

G C ​G C ​ F G ​ ​ ​
Try to see it my way, do I have to keep on talking ‘till I can't go on
C​ G ​
while you see it your way

C F ​G ​
run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone
C G ​ C D7 ​ ​
we can work it out, we can work it out

Think of what you're saying


you can get it wrong and still you think that it's all right
think of what I'm saying
we can work it out and get it straight, or say goodnight
we can work it out, we can work it out

Em C ​
B7 ​
Life is very short and there's no time

Em
for fussing and fighting my friend
C​ B7 ​
I have always thought that it's a crime
​Em
so I will ask you once again

Try to see it my way, only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong


while you see it your way
there's a chance that we might fall apart before too long
we can work it out, we can work it out

Sailing

I am sailing, stormy waters

Am C G ​ ​

I am flying, I am flying, like a bird, cross the sky


I am flying, passing high clouds, to be with you, to be free

Can you hear me, can you hear me? thro' the dark night, far away
I am dying, forever trying, to be with you who can say

We are sailing, we are sailing, home again, cross the sea


we are sailing, stormy waters, to be near you, to be free
​Wild rover

G C ​
I've been a wild rover for many a year

G D7 ​ G ​
and I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer
C​
but now I'm returning with gold in great store
G​ D7 ​ G ​

Refr:

And it's no, nay, never, no, nay, never no more
​G ​C ​G ​D7 G
I will play the wild rover, no, never, no more

I went up to a alehouse I used to frequent


and I told the landlady me money was spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me nay
such costums as yours I can get any day

refr.

I brought up from me pocket ten sovereigns bright


and the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
she said: I have whiskeys and wines of the best
and words that you told me were only in jest

refr.

I'll go home to me parents, confess what I've done


and I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
and when they've caressed me as oft times before
I never will play the wild rover no more

refr.

Nights in white satin

just what the truth is, I can't say anymore
A ​ C ​Em A Em A​ ​ ​ ​ ​Em
'cause I love you, yes I love you, oh, how I love you

Gazing at people, some hand in hand


just what I'm going through they can't understand
some try to tell me thoughts they cannot defend
just what you want to be, you'll be in the end
and I love you, yes I love you, oh, how I love you

I look inside myself and see my heart is black


I see my red door and I want it painted black
maybe then I'll fade away and not to have to face the facts

my love will laugh with me before the morning come

Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets of London
dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags
she's no time for talking, just keeps right on walking
carrying her home in two carrier bags

refr.

In the all-night cafe at a quarter past eleven


same old man sitting there on his own
looking at the world over the rim of his teacup
each tea lasts an hour, and he wanders home alone

refr.

Have you seen the old man outside the seaman's mission
memory fading with the metal ribbons that he wears
in our winter city the rain cries a little pity
for one more forgotten hero and a world that doesn't care

We go to a party and everyone turns to see


this beautifull lady who's walking around with me

and I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight


C D G ​Em ​ ​
I feel wonderful because I see the love light in you eyes

It's time to go home now and I've got an achy head

and than I tell her, as I turn out the light
and say darling, you were wonderful tonight
oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight

she once was a true love of mine

Tell her to make me a cambric shirt, parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
without no seams nor needle work, then she'll be a true love of mine

Tell her to find me an acre of land, parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
between the salt water and the sea strands
then she'll be a true love of mine

Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather


parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
and gather it all in a bunch of heather
then she'll be a true love of mine

all lies and jest, still a man hears what he wants to hear

and disregards the rest

When I left my home and my family


I was no more then a boy in the company of strangers
in the quiet of the railway station, running scared
laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
where the ragged people go
looking for the places only they would know


Am G ​ Am F G7 ​
Lie-la-lie, lie-la-lie-la-lie-la

C
la-la-la-la-lie
Asking only workman's wages I come looking for a job
but I get no offers
just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there

Lie-la-lie ....

Then I'm laying out my winter clothes and wishing I was gone
going home, where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
leading me, going home

In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade


and he carries the reminders of ev'ry glove that laid him down
and cut him, till he cried out in his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving", but the fighter still remains

Lie-la-lie ....

wandering over the hills unseen, or is it a dream
there's a high wind in the trees, a cold sound in the air
and nobody ever knows when you go
and where do you start, oh oh into the dark

Bright eyes burning like fire, bright eyes


how can you close and fail, how can the light that burned so brightly
suddenly burn so pale, bright eyes

I had to stop for the night

There she stood in the doorway, I heard the mission bell


and I was thinking to myself
this could be heaven or this could be hell

there were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say:

any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is tiffany twisted, she got the Mercedes bends


she got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
how they dance in the courtyard sweet summersweat
some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the captain, please bring me my wine


he said, we haven't had that spirit here since 1969
and still those voices are calling from far away
wake you up in the middle of the night, just to hear them say

refr.
what a nice surprise
bring you're alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice


(and she said), we are all just prisoners here of our own device
and in the master's chambers they gathered for the feast
they stab it with their stealy knives,
but they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was running for the door


I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
relax, said the night man, we are programmed to receive
you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave

O mother, tell your children, not to do what I have done


spend your life in sin and misery in the house of the rising sun

keep me searchin' for a heart of gold

G C ​ Bm Am G ​
I've been a miner for a heart of gold

Rockin' in the free world

Intro: Em D C (2x)

Em DC ​
Colors on the street

Em DC ​
red, white and blue

Em DC ​
people shuffelin' their feet

Em DC ​
people sleepin' in their shoes

But there is a warnin' sign on the road ahead


there's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better of dead
don't feel like Satan, but I am to them
so I try to forget it any way I can

G ​D ​C Bm Em ​G A
Keep on rockin' in a free world ​(4x)

I see a girl in the night


with a baby in her hands
under an old street light
near a garbage can

Now she's put the kid away


and she's gone to get a hit
she hate's her life and what she's done to it
there's one more kid that will never go to school
never get to fall in love, never get to be cool
Keep on rockin' in a free world (4x)

Breakfast at Tiffany´s

D​ G A​ D ​ ​
You say that we´ve got nothing in common
G ​ A D ​ ​
no common ground to start from
G A D ​ ​ ​G ​A
and we´re falling apart

D G ​A D ​ ​
you´ll say the world has come between us

G A D ​ ​
our lives have come between us
G A D ​ G ​ ​ ​A
but I know you just don´t care

Refr:
D​ A ​
G ​
And I said: what about breakfast at Tiffany´s?
D A ​ G ​
she said: I think I remember the film
D​ A ​ G ​
and as I recall, I think, we both kinda liked it
D A ​ G ​
and I said: well, that´s the one thing we´ve got

I see you, the only one who knew me


and now your eyes see through me
I guess I was wrong
so what now? It´s plain to see we´re over
and I hate when things are over
when so much is left undone

refr. (2x)

​Mother

G C G ​ ​
Mother, do you think they'll drop the bomb
C​ G ​
mother, do you think they'll like the song
C G ​
mother, do you think they'll try to break my balls
D C G ​
ooh mother, should I build a wall

Mother, should I run for president


mother, should I trust the government
mother, will they put me in the firing line
oooh ma, is it just a waste of time

C​
Hush now, baby, baby, don't you cry
F C ​
mama's gonna make all of your nightmares come true
F C ​
mama's gonna put all of her fears into you
F C ​
mama's gonna keep you right here under her wing
F​ C ​
she won't let you fly, but she might let you sing
F C ​ G ​
mama will keep baby cosy and warm
D C ​
D C D ​ ​ ​
ooh babe, ooh babe, ooh babe

C G ​
of course mama's gonna help build the wall

Mother do you think she's good enough for me


mother do you think she's dangerous to me
mother will she tear your little boy apart
oohaah, mother will she break my heart

Hush now, baby, baby, don't you cry


mama's gonna check out all your girlfriends for you
mama' won't let anyone dirty get through
mama's gonna wait up till you come in
mama will always find out where you've been
mama's gonna keep you healthy and clean
ooh babe, ooh babe, ooh babe
you'll always be baby to me

Mother did it need to be so high

​Comfortably numb

Bm A ​
Hello, is there anybody in there
​G Em ​
just nod if you can hear me
​Bm
is there anyone at home

Come on now, I hear you're feeling down


I can ease your pain, get you on your feet again
relax, I'll need some information first
just the basic facts, can you show me where it hurts

D A ​
There is no pain, you are receding
D A ​
a distant ship's smoke on the horizon
C G ​
you are only coming through in waves
​C G ​
your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child I had a fever
my hands felt just like two balloons
now I've got that feeling once again
can't explain, you would not understand
this is not how I am
A-C G D ​ ​
I have become comfortably numb

Okay, just a little pinprick


there'll be no more aaaaaah!
but you may feel a little sick
can you stand up, I do believe it's working, good
that'll keep you going through the show
come on, it's time to go

There is no pain, you are receding


a distant ship's smoke on the horizon
you are only coming through in waves
your lips move, but I can't hear what you're saying
when I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse
out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look, but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it kow
the child is grown, the dream is gone
and I have become comfortably numb

​Wish you were here

C D ​ Am ​
So, so you think you can tell heaven from hell
G​
blue skies from pain
D​ C ​
can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail

Am G ​
a smile from a veil, do you think you can tell

C​ D ​
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts

Am G ​
hot ashes for trees, hot air for a cool breeze
D​
cold comfort for change
C​ Am ​
and did you exchange a walk on part in the war

G
for a lead role in a cage

C D ​
How I wish, how I wish you were here

Am
we're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl
G D ​
year after year, running over the same old ground
C Am ​
G ​
what have we found, the same old fear, wish you were here
​School
Am Em ​
I can see you in the morning when you go to school
G
don't forget your books
F ​
you know you've got to learn the golden rule
Am Em ​
teacher tells you stop your play and get on with your work
G ​ F ​
and be like Johnny Toogood, don't you know he never shirks
Am​
he's coming along

After school is over you're playing in the park


don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark
they tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about
and to grow up just like them, won't let you work it out
and you're full of doubt

Em F ​ G Am Bm ​ C Am ​ ​ ​ ​
Don't do this and don't do that, what are they trying to do
Bm ​ C ​
make a good boy of you, do they know where it's at

Don't criticise, they're old and wise


do as they tell you to
don't wart the devil to come and pull out your eyes

Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight


or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right
but while I'm still living I've just got this to say
it's always up to you if you want to be that
want to see that, want to see that way

You're coming along

​Hello


Am C F G ​ ​ ​
I've been all alone with you inside my mind
Am​ C F G ​ ​ ​

Dm G C F ​ ​ ​

Dm​ G C F ​ ​ ​
'cause you know just what to say and you know just what to do
B ​ E Am ​ ​
and I want to tell you so much, I love you
I long to see the sunlight in your hair
and tell you time and time again how much I care
sometimes I feel my heart will overflow
hello, I've just gotta let you know

'Cause I wonder where you are and I wonder what you do


are you somewhere feeling lonely or is someone loving you
tell me how to win your heart for I haven't got a clue
but let me start by saying: I love you

Hello, is it me you're looking for

She calls out to the man on the street, sir can you help me
Em D ​
Am Em D ​ ​ ​

He walks on, doesn't look back, he pretends he can't hear her


starts to whistle as he crosses the street, seems embarrassed to be there
Refr:
Em D C​ D ​ ​
oh, think twice, it's another day for you and me in paradise
Em D C​ D ​
Em ​ ​
oh, think twice, it's just another day for you, you and me in paradise

She calls out to the man on the street, he can see she's been crying
she's got blisters on the soles of her feet, can't walk, but she's trying

refr.

D Em ​ D G ​ ​
Oh Lord, is there nothing more anybody can do
D Em ​ D G ​ ​
oh Lord, there must be something you can say

You can tell from the lines on her face


you can see that she's been there
probably been moved on from every place, 'cause she didn't fit in there

and you'll work yourself out fine
C G ​D ​
all we need is just a little patience
sad sugar make it slow
and we'll come together fine
all we need is just a little patience

I sit here on the stairs


'cause I rather be alone
if I can't have you right now I'll wait dear
sometimes I get so tense
but I can't speed up the time
to your love there's one more thing to consider

Sad woman take it slow


and things will be just fine
you and I've just used a little patience
sad sugar take the time
'cause the lights they shine so bright
you and I've got what it takes to make it, we won't fake it
never break it, 'cause I can't take it

G D ​
Patience, yeaeah
we need a little patience
enz...

I've been walking the streets tonight


just trying to get it right
it's so hard to see with so many around
you know I don't like being stuck in a crowd
and the streets don't change but baby the names
I ain't got time for this game
'cause I need you
yeahyeah well I need you
ooooh I need you
ooooh I need you
ooooh this time, this time
​Sweet child o'mine

She's got a smile that it seems to me
C​
reminds me of childhood memories

where everything was as clear as a bright blue sky
now and then when I see her face
she takes me away to that special place
and if I stared to long I'd probably break down and cry

A C D​ ​
Oooooh sweet child o' mine
A C ​
D ​
oooooh sweet love of mine

She's got eyes of the bluest skies


as if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain
her hair reminds me of a warm save place
where as a child I'd hide
and pray for the thunder and the rain to quitly pass me by

Goodnight Saigon

G Dm G7 C
We met as soulmates on Parris Island
C Dm G7 C
we left as inmates from an asylum
Em Am Em Am
and we were sharp, as sharp as knives
Dm G
and we were so gung ho to lay down our lives
We came in spastic like tameless horses
we left in plastic as numbered corpses
and we learned fast to travel light
Dm G
our arms were heavy but our bellies were tight

We had no home front, we had no soft soap


they sent us Playboy, they gave us Bob Hope
we dug in deep and shot on sight
and prayed to Jesus Christ with all of our might

We had no cam'ras to shoot the landscape


we passed the hashpipe and played our Doors tapes
and it was dark, so dark as night
and we held on to each other, like brother to brother

we promised our mothers we'd write

Refr:

C F B C F B C
And we would all go down together, we said we'd all go down together

F B G
yes, we would all go down together

Remember Charlie, remember Baker


they left their childhood on ev'ry acre
and who was wrong and who was right
it didn't matter in the thick of the fight

Am G C Dm E Dm E
We held the day in the palm of our hand
Am G C Dm E
they ruled the night and the night
Dm G Dm G7 C
seemed to last as long as six weeks on Parris Island
C Dm G7 C
we held the coastline, they held the highlands
Em Am Em Am
and they were sharp, as sharp as knives
Dm
they heard the hum of our motors, they counted the rotors
B F Gm7
and waited for us to arrive

Runaway train

Call you up in the middle of the night

like a firefly without a light

you were there like a blow torch burning

I was a key that could use a little turning
so tired that I couldn't even sleep

one more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me no

Refr:
Runaway train never going back
wrong way on a one way track
seems like I should be getting somewhere
somehow I'm neither here nor there

Can you help me remember how to smile


make it somehow all seem worthwhile
how on earth did I get so cheated
life's mystery seems so faded
I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
here I am just drowning in the rain
with a ticket for a runaway train

And everything seems cured and dry


night and day, earth and sky
somehow I just don't believe it

refr.

Bought a ticket for a runaway train


like a madman laughing at the train
a little out of touch, a little insane
is just easier than dealing with the pain
Runaway train never going back
wrong way on a one way track
seems like I should be getting somewhere
somehow I'm neither here nor there
runaway train never coming back
runaway train tearing up the track
runaway train burning in my face
runaway but it always seems the same

​What's up

trying to get up that great big hill of hope for a destination

I realize briefly when I know I should
Bm D
that hope was meant for this brotherhood of men

for whatever that means

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed


used to get it all out what's in my head
and I, I'm feeling a little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside


and I take a deep breath and I get real high
and I scream from the top of my lungs: What's going on?

And I said: Heeeee...


I said: Heeeee...
what's going on?
(3x)

And I try, oh my God do I try


I try all the time in this institution
and I pray, oh my God do I pray
I pray every single day for a revelution

And so I cry sometimes when I lie in bed


used to get it all out what's in my head
and I, I'm feeling a little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside


and I take a deep breath and I get real high
and I scream from the top of my lungs: What's going on?

I thought that I heard you laughing

I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper, every waking hour, I'm choosing my confessions


trying to keep an eye on you
like a herd lost in blindfold far
oh no, I've said to much, I said it off

Consider this, consider this the hints of the century


consider this the slip that brought me to my knees
what is all these fantasies come playing around
now I've said to much

I thought that I heard you laughing


I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
that was just a dream, that was just a dream

That's me in the corner


that's me in the spotlight, losing my religion
trying to keep a view
and I don't know if I can do it

Oh no, I've said to much, I haven't said enough

​How the Heart behaves
Capo V
Intro: Dm

Dm C Dm
She ran him over like a bus, but he seemed to feel no pain
C Dm
just laid there smiling like a flower in the rain
C Dm
she shrunk his ego down so small that he didn't even know his name
C Dm
she knew no other way to love, that's how she played the game

B C B C
But when he got her in a darkened room, in the still of the afternoon
Gm7 Am7 5 B C
he became her entire world and she cried like little girl

F C/E Gm7
The line between pleasure and pain can't be measured by means of the brain
F C/E Dm
mere reason alone can never explain how the heart behaves

She wrapped her claws around him like a crab around a rock
it was 'Baby this' and 'Baby that', she never let him talk
he couldn't see his shadow, she was always in the light
and if they moved she asked them back and dug her claws in thight

But when he got her in a darkend room in the still of the afternoon
he became her entire world and she cried like little girl

The line between pleasure and pain


can't be measured by means of the brain
mere reason alone can never explain how the heart behaves

B C B C
And they said that he wept, how much more can he take
Gm7 Am7 5
and just when you thought that he killed her

sus
B C C
She gave him a kiss it never missed

One day she ran away with a man she hardly knew
she left a note that said: " I'm bored with me and you"

He found another girl himself highheeled hurricane


there was no calm inside her eyes, just the promise of more of the same

Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know
the piper's calling you to join him

And as we wind on down the road
our shadows taller than our soul
there walks a lady we all know
who shines white light and wants to show
how everything still turns to gold
and if you listen very hard
the tune will come to you at last
when all are one and one is all
to be a rock and not to roll

And she's buying a stairway to heaven

Where do you think you're going?

I understand your changes, long before you've reached the door

You say that there's no reason, but you don't find cause to doubt me

Lightning crashes

Intro: F C G (2x) F

C G F
Lightning crashes, a new mother cries
C G F C
her placenta falls to the floor
G
the angel opens her eyes
F
the confusion sets in
C G F
before the docter can even close the door

Lightning crashes, an old mother dies


her intentions fall to the floor
the angel closes her eyes
the confusion that was hers
belongs now, to the baby down the hall

Refr:
F C G F
Oh now feel it comin' back again
C G F
like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind
C G F
forces pullin' from the center of the Earth again
C G F
I can feel it

Lightning crashes, a new mother cries


this moment she's been waiting for
the angel opens her eyes
pale blue colored iris, presents the circle
and puts the glory out to the hide, hide

you act as if I'm not around

I draw you, every single feature in my head


I try to do my homework
but I dream of you instead

I need a plan for you to fall


in love with me and then

I still haven´t found what I´m looking for

I have spoken with tongue of angels


I have held the hand of the devil
it was warm in the night, I was cold as stone

refr.

I believe the kingdom comes


then all the colours will bleed into one
bleed into one, but yes, I´m still running

I want you to know that I'm happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you

would she go down on you in the theatre

Gm
does she speak eloquently and would she have your baby

C
I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother

Gm
'cause the love that you gave that we made
C​
wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no

Gm
and every time you speak her name
does she know how you told me you'd hold me

C
until you died, 'till you died but you're still alive

Refr:

B C ​
of the mess you left when you went away

You seem very well, things look peaceful


I'm not quite as well, I thought you should know
did you forget about me mr. Duplicity
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
it was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
are you thinking of me when you fuck her
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
and every time you speak her name
does she know how you told me you'd hold me
until you died, 'till you died
but you're still alive

refr.

intermezzo

'Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me

Hand in my pocket

I'm tired but I'm working, yeah
I care but I'm restless
I'm here ut I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry baby

And what it all comes down to


is that everything's gonna be quite allright
I'v got one hand in my pocket
and the other one is flicking a cigarette

What it all comes down to


is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
I've got one hand in my pockeet
and the other one's giving the peace sign

I'm free but I'm focused


I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly baby
Im sad but I'm laughing
I'm brave but I'm chicken shit
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby

What it all boils down to


is that no one's really got it figured out just yet
I've got one hand in my pocket
and the other one is playing the piano

What it all comes down to my friends


is that everything's just fien fine fine
Ive got one hand in my pocket
and the other one is hailing a taxi cab
