Balcony Scene

A Flair For The Dramatic

# Capo on 2

               G
Waking up your neighbors downstairs,
      Em7
I've been inside your bedroom a thousand years.
           Cadd9
And as you tie me to the bed for good I say
       G
that I want you in the most unromantic way.

    Cadd9                   Em
Louisiana, you're torturing me with a beautiful face.
             Cadd9
Ana come on, I thought we had a damn good thing.
               G                   Am6
A penny in the couch and a diamond ring.


             E            C
So baby stay away from my friends,
         Am7          Am6
'cause I need them to carry me.
          E               C
When it's over I'll count back from ten,
            C    C     Am6                  C
and you can list-en to glass hearts shattering.


        G
I don't know how you got into me,
             Em7
down my throat and made a home in my veins.
                    Cadd9
They used to be the rivers that would take us away,
                 G
but now you only call me every Christmas and my birthday.
                Cadd9                      A
I still can't believe how you look next to me,
            Cadd9              A           
just like a strip club bedroom scene.


          E            C
Baby stay away from my friends,
         Am7          Am6
'cause I need them to carry me.

This blood evacuation is telling me to cave in.

Stay Away From My Friends

Intro
C-G-F-Am
Listen to the song for the strumming pattern

Million Dollar Houses

Gm
So what if I was just a painter,
                         Dm
painting houses on the rich blue coast?
                        Am
Would you ever try to leave me
                    A7
for somebody who deserves you most?
                            Gm
Cuz darling I am just a painter
                             Dm
I'm painting houses for the rich old folks.
                            Am
I'm gonna make a million dollars,
                       A7
'cause nobody's gonna steal you, no,
                  Gm
For diamonds and gold.
                  Dm
For diamonds and gold.

                 Gm        Dm               Am
Cuz I've broken bones for you, and for you only.
                       A7                 Gm
(I make money but we just can't keep this home)
                             Dm
Give me your heart and your hand 
             Am
and we can run!
                       A7     Gm
We can run, we can run baby, run now.
                 Dm
We can run baby, run.

The New National Anthem

Selfish Machines 

Am	  
Sunshine
				 F			 G
There ain't a thing that you can do that's gonna ruin my night

(But there's just something about)

Am	
This dizzy dreamer and her bleeding little blue boy
F		 		 G
Licking your fingers like you're done and
			F                 G
You've decided there is so much more than me. (Oh)
	  Am				G	         F
And baby honestly it's harder breathing next to you, I shake
			     G
I brought a gun and as the preacher tried to stop me,
Am		   G
Hold my heart it's beating for you anyway

Am			     Em
What if I can't forget you? (Oh)
		F
I'll burn your name into my throat
	     G
I'll be the fire that'll catch you
Am				    Em
What's so good about picking up the pieces?
F			G			 Am
None of the colors ever light up anymore in this hole
F
Oh
G		      Am
Nobody prays for the heartless (No! )
				    F
Nobody gives another penny for the selfish
			 G
(You're learning how to taste what you kill now)
Am					
Don't mind me, I'm just reaching for your necklace
F				G
Talking to my mom about this little girl from Texas

Am			     Em
What if I can't forget you? (Oh)
		F
I'll burn your name into my throat
	     G
I'll be the fire that'll catch you
Am				    Em
What's so good about picking up the pieces?
F			G			 Am
None of the colors ever light up anymore in this hole

			Em
Just give her back to me
	   F				  G
You know I can't afford the medicine that feeds what I need
	Am			      Em
So baby what if I can't forget you? (What if I can't forget you?)
	   F			G			   Am	     F   G
Collide invisible lips like a shadow on the wall and just throw, oh no
                             
You can't just throw me away!

     Am       Em

# (repetitively for bridge)

   Am
So what if I can't forget you?
Em		F
I'll burn your name into my throat
	     G
I'll be the fire that'll catch you
Am				    Em
What's so good about picking up the pieces?
G
What if I don't even want to

Am			     Em
What if I can't forget you? (Oh)
		F
I'll burn your name into my throat
	     G
I'll be the fire that'll catch you
Am				    Em
What's so good about picking up the pieces?

			Em
Just give her back to me
	   F				  G
You know I can't afford the medicine that feeds what I need
	Am			     Em
So baby what if I can't forget you? (What if I can't forget you?)
    F  			  G
I'd better learn to live alone
Am                     F              G       Am
What's so good about picking up the pieces?

I breathe you in with smoke in the backyard lights

We used to laugh until we choked into the wasted nights
           F#                              Bbm

My love for you was bulletproof but you're the one who shot me

And god damn it I can barely say your name

Pretend that it's a song 'cause forever it's yours

By the time you're hearing this I'll already be gone

King For A Day

Intro:  
Am, F, C, G   X2
Verse 1:
Am       F         C                G
I kissed the scars on her skin
Am                                    F
I still think you're beautiful
       C                                                            G
And I don't ever want to lose my best friend.
Am              F            C                     G
I screamed out, "God, you vulture,
Am                F            C                     G
Bring her back or take me with her"


Am                                      F
Tear it down, break the barricade
C                              G
I want to see what sound it makes
Am                                   F                            C                      G
I hate this flavor with a passion and I freaking hate the aftertaste


Am                            F
How does it feel? How does it feel?
              C                          G
Well it feels like I'm on fire!
Am                F                        C       G
Wake up; I know you can hear me.

Chorus:
Am                        F                      C                                G
Make me a promise here tonight, love like a tidal wave
Am                                 F                     C                             G
Dreamless in early graves, I never want it to be this way
Am                 F                            C              G
The chemicals will bring you home again
Am                             F
This is it, when it's done, we can say that,
C                                    G
When it's sudden death we fight back







Verse 2:
Am, F, C
G                          Am                             F
Pretend like I don't entice you
C                      G                   Am                   F
I've seen you circling the sky above my head
C                        G
You traitor

Am               F      C                G           Am          F
I will never be taken for granted again
C                            G                Am         F
Keep digging holes in the desert
C           G          Am
Say a prayer for you


F                                 C
I know that you're in pain
                  G                              Am                       F          C          G
But if we die at the same time does it still scare you?

Chorus:
Am                        F                         C            G
Make me a promise here tonight. Let's go!
Am                                 F                     C                             G
Dreamless in early graves, I never want it to be this way
Am                 F                            C              G
The chemicals will bring you home again
Am                             F
This is it, when it's done, we can say that,
C                                G
Oh my God we're not gonna make it

Bridge:
Am                            F
We will bring the tidal wave
C                                G
We will bring the tidal wave
Am                             F
We will bring the tidal wave
C                                 G
We will bring the tidal wave!




Am                            F
We will bring the tidal wave
C                                G
We will bring the tidal wave
Am                             F
We will bring the tidal wave
C                        G
And nothing will remain


Am
She's mine
         F
You stay away from her
      C               G
It's not her time.
                          Am
'Cause, baby, I'm the one
                               F                   C
Who haunts her dreams at night,
                      G
Until she's satisfied.

Chorus:
Am                        F                      C                                G
Make me a promise here tonight, love like a tidal wave

Dreamless in early graves, I never want it to be this way
Am                 F                            C              G
The chemicals will bring you home again
Am                             F
This is it, when it's done, we can say that,

When it's sudden death we fight back

Am               F                  C  G      Am
Choke, tried to wash you down with something strong
Am           F              C       G
Dry but the taste of blood remains
Am            F             C G     Am
Cold, empty mattresses and falling stars

You slide into bed while I get drunk

Slow conversations with a gun

Mean more than I've ever said to anyone, anyone

But last night, you said you ended up in Palm Springs dancing on tables
        C
Almost fought some b*tch at the club (yeah!)
           G                     Am
Got kicked out of your hotel and lost your shoes

Well, fuck, what am I supposed to be, impressed?

You're just another set of bones to lay to rest

Evil things away

Celebrate the way the night hides scars.

you swing the blade at everything in sight!

Separate me from my own two hands,

I've killed so many times,

Misadventures

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah, 
     F#                      E       B   F#
I'm going where the people know my name

Long distance, I need you

When I see potential I just gotta see it through

If you had a twin, I would still choose you

I don't wanna rush into it, if it's too soon

But I know you need to get done, done, done, done

If you come over

Sorry if I'm way less friendly
C                    Em7
I got n____s tryna end me,

oh,     I spilled all my emotions tonight, I'm sorry

Rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'
C                                Em7
How many more shots until you're rollin'?
F              G
We just need a face to face
C                    Em7            F
You could pick the time and the place
               G
You spent some time away
C                Em7
Now you need to forward and give me all the...

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

Overreacting

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
