Intro:
C     F (x2)

Verse:
             C         F
You speak of love
                 C         F
But you ain't no lover
           C         F
You were a friend
                C         F
And more like a brother


Bridge:
          Am
As the miles passed beneathe me
                                Ddim
The sounds made so sweetly came to an end
          Am
And no man can deny her

but now you're a liar
           Ddim
And you've no room left to defend


Verse:
       C       F
When I left,
                    C        F
I should have known better
        C                    F
All the kind of man that you are
              C         F
You'd have to get her


Bridge:
      Am
And I know you've got a lot of pain
                   Ddim
That's born inside you
          Am
But instead of growing stronger
             Ddim            C
You let it devide you oh


Chorus:
              F    C          F    C
How could you be so careless
              F    C          F
How could you be so careless

Bridge:
        Am
And the waves that are crashing
                               Ddim
True lives of passion washing on your shore
         Am
Yes sir, life has been costing

A true love's been lost
      Ddim                    C     F
And I can't get back anymore


Verse:
        C        F
And I'm sure,
                   C          F
that we both still love her
       C                      F
It's a shame we both lost her
                     C        F
And in turn lost eachother

Bridge:
        Am
But our trust has been broken

And words have been spoken
    Ddim
But you can mend
       Am
And no man can deny her

And as you laid beside her
  Ddim                        C
I hope it felt good my friend


Chorus:
              F    C
How could you be so careless
              F    C         F     C
How could you be so careless
              F    C         Am   F   C
How could you be so careless with her heart

I've been working on a night train
                       F
Drinking coffee, taking cocaine
                          G
I'm out here on a night train
                        C
Trying to get us safely home

                          C
Well in a little country station
                        F
Somewhere out in the midwest
                            G
I see the people out there waiting
                      C
Heart beating in my chest

                            C
And I'm thinking about a woman
                          F
Who I would put no one above

Where the noise, it never stops
                           G
Hammers pounding on the pavement
                       C
Whistles from traffic cops

                             C
Nobody looks you in the eye here
                              F
Walking around with clinched fists
                                 G
I've been searching for a simple place
                   C
Don't know if it exists

             F                           C
There's a sunrise out there calling my name
      F                G
I can see her moving, I can see her moving

                                 C
Well at a certain time of night, now
                           F
I'll become one with the wind
                       G
Where there isn't a beginning
                  C
And there is no end

                         C
Oh when everything is flowing
                   F
Everything is on time
                           G
And I know that we're all going
                    C
To the end of the line

 Well, the morning came like a freight train
  Am                                          Em7
 Bearing down on me from a thousand miles of rail
  Em7                           D         G       
 Well it came and gone And kept rolling on
  Am                                                  Em7     D
 Laying up all night with my tear-stained sheet as my veil

                 G
 I don't want to see you again
                 D
 I don't want to feel your breath 
        Am                          C
 As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept 
                      G                                    D
 And I don't want the keys to our door; I don't live there anymore
          Am                            C                  Em7
 And I'll do my best just to forget the dreams we've dreamt

 Em7                             D           G
 Well, the morning came with the pouring rain
 Am                             Em7
 And I felt just as empty as a pail
 Em7                        D              G
 With the evidence and your crime confessed 
 Am                                                  Em7   D 
 Don't seem right that it's me that spent a night in jail

                 G
 I don't want to see you again
                 D
 I don't want to feel your breath
        Am                         C
 As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept
                      G                                    D

          Am                            C                
 And I'll do my best just to forget the dreams we've dreamt

 D          G                   Cadd9
     If you feel a chill in the air
 D           G                  Cadd9
     It's my spirit hanging somewhere
 D          G        Cadd9      
     If you ever get scared
 D           G      C               
 Look on the Brightside 
 D            G    C
    You got a new life

 Em7                           D         G   
 Now the evenings come and I'm all alone
 Am                                              Em7
 And I can't tell if silence is my foe or my friend
 Em7                       D                G
 Well I'm holding on but I ain't too strong
 Am                                                           Em7     D
 I gotta get some rest before that train come back round the bend

                 G
 I don't want to see you again
                 D
 I don't want to feel your breath 
        Am                        C
 As you leaned on me so peacefully while we slept
                      G                                    D
 And I don't want the keys to our door; I don't live there anymore
         Am                                    C            Em7

School Friends

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

Arrows Of Eros

Am      C              F              C
I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own

             F                C               G         E7   Am
Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me

       I had a dream, we were back to seventeen
       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us

It Ain't Me

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
