Bruce Springsteen – THE RIVER
Em G D C
I come from down in the valley Where mister, when you're young
Em G C G
They bring you up to do like your daddy done
C G D Em
Me and Mary we met in high school When she was just seventeen
Am G C
We'd drive out of this valley down to where the fields were green
----------------------------------------------------------------
Em C D G
We'd go down to the river And into the river we'd dive
Em C D C
Oh down to the river we’d ride
----------------------------------------------------------------
Em G D C
Then I got Mary pregnant And man, that was all she wrote
Em G C G
And for my 19th birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat
C G D Em
We went down to the courthouse And the judge put it all to rest
Am
No wedding day smiles, no walk down the aisle
G C
No flowers, no wedding dress
----------------------------------------------------------------
Em C
That night we went down to the river
D G
And into the river we'd dive
Em C D C
Oh down to the river we did ride
----------------------------------------------------------------
Em G D C
I got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company
Em G C G
But lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy
C
Now all them things that seemed so important
G D Em
Well mister they vanished right into the air
Am G C
Now I just act like I don't remember Mary acts like she don't care
2
Em G D
But I remember us riding in my brother's car Her body tan and wet
down at
C Em G
the reservoir At night on them banks I'd lie awake
C G
And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take
C
Now those memories come back to haunt me
G D Em
They haunt me like a curse
Am G C
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true Or is it something worse
----------------------------------------------------------------
Em C D G
That sends me down to the river Though I know the river is dry
Em C D C
That sends me down to the river tonight
Em C D G
Down to the river my baby and I
Em C D C
Oh down to the river we ride Ooh..

Eric Clapton – WONDERFUL TONIGHT
G D
It’s late in the evening,
C D
She’s wondering what clothes to wear
G D
She puts on her make-up
C D
And brushes her long blonde hair.
C D
And then she asks me,
G Em
“Do I look alright?”
C D G
And i say, “Yes, you look wonderful tonight.”
G D
We go to a party
C D
And everyone turns to see
G D
This beautiful lady
C D
That’s walking around with me
C D
And then she asks me,
G Em
“Do u feel alright?”
C D G
And i say “Yes, I feel wonderful tonight.”
C D
I feel wonderful because i see
G Em
The love-light in your eyes,
C D
And the wonder of it all
C D
Is that you just don’t realise how much I love you.
G D
It’s time to go home now
C D
And I’ve got and aching head
G D
So i give her the car keys,
C D
She helps me to bed.
C D
And I tell her
G Em
As I turn off the light,
C D G
I say, “ My darling, you were wonderful tonight.

Pink Floyd – LOST FOR WORDS
I was [F]spending my time in the [C]doldrums
I was [F]caught in a cauldron of [C]hate
I felt [F]persecuted and [C]para[Am]lysed
I [G]thought that everything else would just [F]wait
While you are wasting your time on your enemies

Engulfed in a fever of spite
Beyond your tunnel vision reality fades
Like shadows into the night
To martyr yourself to caution

Is not going to help at all
Because there'll be no safety in numbers
When the Right One walks out of the door
{c:break}
Can you [C]see your days blighted by [G]darkness?

Is it [C]true you beat your fists on the [G]floor?
[C]Stuck in a world of [G]iso[Em]lation
While the [D]ivy grows over the [C]door
So I open my doors to my enemies

And I ask could we wipe the slate clean
But the tell me please go fuck myself
You know you just can't win

Pink Floyd – COMING BACK TO LIFE
G C
Where were you when I was burned and broken
Em D C
While the days slipped by from my window watching
G C
Where were you when I was hurt and I was helpless
Em D C
Because the things you say and the things you do surround me
Em C
While you were hanging yourself on someone else's words
Em F
Dying to believe in what you heard
Em7 D G
I was staring straight into the shining sun
G C
Lost in thought and lost in time
Em D C
While the seeds of life and the seeds of change were planted
G C
Outside the rain fell dark and slow
Em D C
While I pondered on this dangerous but irresistible pastime
Em C
I took a heavenly ride through our silence
Em F
I knew the moment had arrived
Em7 D G
For killing the past and coming back to life
G | G | C | C |
Em | D | C | C |
G | G | C | C |
Em | D | C | C |
Em C
I took aheavenly ride through our silence
Em F
I knew the waiting had begun
Em7 D G
And headed straight... Into the shining sun

James - GETTIN' AWAY WITH IT ALL MESSED UP
Dm F C G
Are you aching for the blame?

That's OK we're unsure
Are you aching for the grave?
That's OK we're unsure
Getting away with it all messed up

That's the living (x2)
Daniel's saving Grace, she's out in deep water,

Hope he's a good swimmer
Daniel plays his ace, deep inside his temple,
He knows how to serve her

That's the living (X 2)
Daniel drinks his weight, drinks like Richard Burton,

Dance like John Travolta...now
Daniel's saving Grace, he was all for drowning,
Now they live like dolphins


That's the living

Gary Jules – MAD WORLD
a C
All around me are familiar faces
G D
Worn out places – worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere – going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses

No expression – no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow – no tomorrow
a D a
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
a D a
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
a D a
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
a D
When people run in circles it’s a very very
a C D
Maaaaaad world
a C D
Maaaaaaad world
Children waiting for the day they feel good

Happy birthday – happy birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen – sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me – no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what’s my lesson
Look right through me – look right through me
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad

The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it’s a very very
Maaaaaad world
Enlarge your world
Mad world

The Church – UNDER THE MILKY WAY
Am Asus4 Fmaj7 G
Sometimes when this place gets kind of empty
The sound of their voice fades with the light
I think about the loveless facination
Under the Milky Way tonight

Lower the curtains down on Memphis
Lower the curtains down alright
Iv'e got no time for private consultation
Under the milky way tonight
G Fmaj7
Wish I knew what you were looking for
might have known what you would find
Wish I knew what you were looking for
might have known what you would find
Am Asus4 Fmaj7 G
And its something quite pecular
Something thats shimmering and white
It leads you here despite your destination
Under the milky way tonight

Simon & Garfunkel – THE BOXER
[C]I am just a poor boy though my story's seldom [Am]told
I have [G]squandered my resistance
For a [G7]pocket full of [G6]mumbles, such are [C]promises
All lies and [Am]jest, still a [G]man hears what he [F]wants to hear
And disregards the [C]rest [G] [G7] [G6] [C]
When I [C]left my home and my family, I was no more than a [Am]boy

In the [G]company of strangers
In the [G7]quiet of a [G6]railway station, [C]running scared
Laying [Am]low, seeking [G]out the poorer [F]quarters
Where the ragged people [C]go
Looking [G]for the places [G7]only [F]they would [C]know
--------------------------------------------------------
[Chorus]
Lie la [Am]lie, Lie la [Em]lie la lie la lie, Lie la [Am]lie,
[G]Lie la lie la la la la, lie [F]la la la la [C]lie.
--------------------------------------------------------
Asking [C]only workman's wages I come looking for a [Am]job
But I get no [G]offers
Just a [G7]come-on from the [G6]whores on Seventh [C]Avenue
I do de[Am]clare, there were [G]times when I was [F]so lonesome
I took some comfort [C]there
[G]Lie lie lie lie la [F] [F] [C]
Then I'm [C]laying out my winter clothes and wishing I was [Am]gone
Going[G]home where the[G7]New York City winters[G6]aren't
[C]bleeding me [Em]
Leading [Am]me, to going [G]home [G7] [C]
In the [C]clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his [Am]trade

And he [G]carries a reminder of ev'ry [G7]glove that laid him down
Or [C]cut him till he cried out in his anger and his [Am]shame
I Am [G]leaving, I Am [F]leaving
But the fighter still re[C]mains mmm[G]mm mmmm [G7] [C]

Into the bus stop to pick up a paper for my old man

Esus E Esus E A D
I'd sit on his lap in that big old Buick and steer as we drove through town

In `65 tension was running high at my high school

There was a lot of fights between the black and white
There was nothing you could do
Two cars at a light on a Saturday night in the back seat there was a gun
Words were passed in a shotgun blast
Troubled times had come to my hometown
My hometown, my hometown, my hometown
Now Main Street's whitewashed windows and vacant stores

F#m E/A A E/A A
Seems like there ain't nobody wants to come down here no more
F#m E/A A E/A A
They're closing down the textile mill across the railroad tracks
D E/A A E/A A
Foreman says these jobs are going boys and they ain't coming back to
D A E
Your hometown, your hometown, your hometown, your hometown
Last night me and Kate we laid in bed talking about getting out
Packing up our bags maybe heading south
I'm thirty-five we got a boy of our own now
Last night I sat him up behind the wheel and said son take a good look
around
This is your hometown

Pearl Jam – LAST KISS
DOWN-DOWN-UP UP-DOWN-UP
G Em C D
Oh where, oh where can my baby be? The Lord took her away from me.
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good, so I can see my baby when
I leave this world.
We were out on a date in my daddy's car. We hadn't driven very far.

There in the road, straight ahead ...The car was stalled, the engine
was dead.
I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right. I’ll never forget the
sound that night.
The screaming tyres, the busted glass. The painful scream that I
heard last.
I leave this world.
When I woke up, the rain was pourin' down. There were people
standing
all around.
Something warm going through my eyes, but somehow I found my baby
that night.
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said, "Hold me darling for a
little while."
I held her close. I kissed her, our last kiss. I found the love that
I knew I would miss.
But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight. I lost my love ...
my life, that night.
I leave this world.

Although his hand came back empty

he's really not worried

because he knows it still shines.

I can't promise that I'll grow those wings

or keep this tarnished halo shined

but I'll never betray your trust

angel mine.
[C] [Am]
I search all the time on the ground
[Em]
for our shadows cast side by side.

Just to remind me that I haven't gone crazy

that you exist and are mine
[C] [Am]
And I know that your skin is as warm and as real

Is a suitcase and a trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's all a-drunk
I've got one foot on the platform

The other foot on the train
I'm going back to New Orleans
To wear the ball and chain
So mothers, tell your children

Not to do what I have done
Spend your life in sin and misery
In the house of the Rising Sun
Repeat First Verse

Kissed my girl, by the factory wall

Pink Floyd - ECHOES
Am Em
Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
Dm
And deep beneath the rolling waves
E
In labyrinths of coral caves
Am
The echo of a distant time
Em
Comes willowing across the sand
Dm E
And everything is green and submarine
A
And no-one showed us to the land
E
And no-one knows the wheres or whys
Dm
But something stirs and something tries
E F Am
And starts to climb towards the liiiiight
Am
Strangers passing in the street
Em
By chance two separate glances meet
Dm E
And I am you and what I see is meee
Am
And do i take you by the hand
Em
And lead you through the land
Dm E
And help me understand the best i caaan
A
And no-one calls us to move on
E
And no-one forces down our eyes
Dm
And no-one speaks and no-one tries
E F Am
And no-one flies around the suuuuuun
54
Am Em
Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes
Dm E
Inviting and inciting me to rise
Am
And through the window in the wall
Em
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
Dm E
A million bright ambassadors of morning
A
And no-one sings me lullabies
E
And no-one makes me close my eyes
Dm
And so I throw the windows wide
E F Am
And call to you across the skyyyyyy
55
Pink Floyd - TIME
F#M A Asus4 A
Ticking away, the moments that make up a dull day
E F#m
You fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way
A
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
E F#m
Waiting for someone or something to show the way...
Dmaj7 Amaj7
Tired of lying in the sunshine,staying home to watch the rain
Dmaj7 Amaj7
You are young, and life is long, and there is time to kill today
Dmaj7 C#m7
And then one day you find, ten years have got behind you
Bm7 E
No one told you where to run, you missed the starting gun...
And you run, and you run to catch up to catch up with the sun, but
it's sinking
And racing around, to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a realative way but your older
Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death...
Dmaj7 Amaj7
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Dmaj7 Amaj7
Plans that either come to naught, or half a page of scribbled lines
Dmaj7 C#m
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
Bm Bm7 F
The time is gone, the song is over, thought i'd have something more
to say...

David Gray - BABYLON
C G Dm F
Friday night I'm going nowhere--all the lights are changing green to red
C G Dm F
Turning over TV stations, situations running through my head
C G Dm F
Well looking back through time you know it's clear that I've been blind
I've been a fool
C G Dm F
To open up my heart to all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule
C G Dm F
Saturday I'm running wild and all the lights are changing red to green
C G Dm F
Moving through the crowd I'm pushing chemicals all rushing through my
bloodstream
C G Dm F
Only wish that you were here you know I'm seeing it so clear I've been
afraid
C G Dm F
To show you how I really feel admit to some of those bad mistakes I've made
C G Dm F
If you want it come and get it (for) crying out loud
C G Dm F
The love that I was giving you was never in doubt
C G Dm F
Let go your heart let go your head and feel it now
C G Dm F
Let go your heart let go your head and feel it now
C G Dm F
Babylon, Babylon
C G Dm F
Babylon
C G Dm F
Sunday all the lights of London shining--sky is fading red to blue
C G Dm F
I'm kicking through the autumn leaves and wondering where it is you might
be going to
C G Dm F
Turning back for home--you know I'm feeling so alone I can't believe
C G Dm F
Climbing on the stair, I turn around to see you smiling there in front of
me
Chorus 2
C G Dm F
If you want it come and get it (for) crying out loud
C G Dm F
The love that I was giving you was never in doubt...

Get down, get down, little Henry Lee

You won't find a girl in this damn world

A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
I can't get down and I won't get down

And stay all night with thee
For the girl I have in that merry green land
I love far better than thee
La la la la la
La la la la lee
She leaned herself against a fence

Just for a kiss or two
And with a little pen-knife held in her hand
She plugged him through and through
And the wind did roar and the wind did moan
La la la la la
La la la la lee
Come take him by his lilly-white hands

Come take him by his feet
And throw him in this deep deep well
Which is more than one hundred feet
75
La la la la la
La la la la lee
Lie there, lie there, little Henry Lee

Till the flesh drops from your bones
For the girl you have in that merry green land
Can wait forever for you to come home
And the wind did howl and the wind did moan
La la la la la
La la la la lee

Capo 3
CaddG F Am
I`ve spent all my days Going down to the mines

Under the ground Where the sun never shine

Breaking my back I put heat in your house

I’ve got the roar of a lion The breath of a mouse

Black on my head black on my shoes

Black on my heart from these coal mining blues
CaddG F Am
The man in the mirror Looks nothing like me

Just a weary reminder Of what I used to be
CaddG F Am
The sunking red eyes The lies in my faith
G F
The tired old man Is taking my place
F G
Dm F
CaddG F Am
I can`t fall asleep for the dream that may come

When the walls cave in and the coal fills my lungs

We got two girls dancing to pick up the crowd
Sound man to mix us, make us sound loud
Sometimes we make money
Sometimes we don't know

Thirteen days with life to go
Birmingham mobile up to Baton Rouge

Smoking cigarettes and reefer, drinking coffee and blue
See the sun come up in Georgia, go down in New Orleans
There we get to know a woman, start to get in her jeans
Sometimes we don't know
Migrant worker is the name of this band

When we come to your town, come see us if you can
Well, we been to California, we been to New York
Some think we're good, others they don't
Sometimes I don't know

A love that can’t be held
It’s a love that tortures me
That without my life is hell

Intro: Am
C
Am E And strange hands halted me,
From the dusty May sun G
Dm Am The looming shadows danced
Her looming shadow grows Dm
Am E I fell down to the thorny brush
Hidden in the branches F Am
Dm Am And felt the trembling hands
of the poison creosote
Am E
C When the last light warms the
She twines her spines up slowly rocks
G Dm Am
Towards the boiling sun And the rattlesnakes unfold
Dm Am E
And when I touched her skin Mountain cats will come
F Am Dm Am
My fingers ran with blood to drag away your bones
Am E C
In the hushing dusk And rise with me forever
Dm Am G
Under a swollen silver moon Across the silent sand
Am E Dm
I came walking with the wind And the stars will be your eyes
Dm Am F Am
To watch the cactus bloom And the wind will be my hands

Greg Holden – THE LOST BOY
G
I left my home still as a child
G
I walked a thousand soary miles
C/G G
To wait for my father, to gather up his truth
G
He said my boy you've got to run
G
Don’t wait for me, don’t wait for mum
C/G G
We’ll come get you, when it’s safe for us to move
C/G
So I waited many years,
Em
held back the pain behind my tears
C/G G
For my father, to come find me like he said
C/G
And in that time I was alone,
Em
so many years without my home
C/G G
I made brothers of a different kind instead
Instrumental break:
G C/G G
G
And in the time I didn't know,
G
just how hard the wind could blow
C/G G
Towards disaster, and the things that I would see
G
I never found my father,
G
I never found my mother
C/G G
Even would I know in my lifetime I will be
117
C/G
A hero into the masses,
Em
to those born without chances
C/G G
There’s a freedom that everyone deserves
C/G
I know there’s greed and there’s corruption
Em
I’ve seen death and mass destruction
C/G G
But I’m telling you, and I hope that I'm heard
G
And I will not be commanded,
C/G
And I will not be controlled
Em C/G
And I will not let my future go on,
G
without the help of my soul

While you are wasting your time on your enemies

To martyr yourself to caution

Can you [C]see your days blighted by [G]darkness?

So I open my doors to my enemies

I hold you in my [Asus2]arms [Asus4]______[A]

I heard somebody call your [Asus2]name [Asus4]______[A]

Now [E]look at me baby [Esus4]

[E]Now you play the [A]loving [Asus2]woman [Asus4]______[A]

Tonight our bed is [Asus2]cold [Asus4]

Are you aching for the blame?

Getting away with it all messed up

Daniel's saving Grace, she's out in deep water,

Getting away with it all messed up

Daniel drinks his weight, drinks like Richard Burton,

Getting away with it all messed up

Getting away with it all messed up

[C]One love, [Am]one life

[Am]Did I disap[Dsus2]point you

Well it's [C]too late, [Am]tonight

[Am]Have you come here for for[Dsus2]giveness

Did I [C]ask too much [Am]more than a lot

[C]Love is a temple, [Am]love a higher law

You [C]ask me to enter, but [G]then you make me crawl

[C]One love, [Am]one blood

Dsus2: 000230 Fmaj7: 003210

C (G) G (D) d (a) d (a) C (G)

Caught her, crying over your shoulder

Nah, nah, nah, nah

Their tears are filling up their glasses

Children waiting for the day they feel good

And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad

[C]I rode in on a grey hound

[C]The man from the magazine

[C]If I only had a dollar

When it's over, so they say

Ref.: I wanna know

[C]Now, [Am]nothing can take you a[G]way from me

[F]And love is [G]all that I [Am]need

[C]Oh, [Am]once in your life you [G]find someone

[C]Yeah, [Am]nothing could change what you [G]mean to me

[Dm]I've been waiting for so [F]long

[Dm]Now our dreams are coming [F]true

i've been driving up and down these streets

You've been alone, you didn't show it

And as I still walk on

I'm a walkin' in the rain

When I [C]left my home and my family, I was no more than a [Am]boy

In the [C]clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his [Am]trade

Sit here on the stairs

Sometimes I get so candescent

Sad woman take it slow

Sad sugar take the time

Into the bus stop to pick up a paper for my old man

This is your hometown, this is your hometown

This is your hometown, this is your hometown
