G                  C            D
She is a part of the music continuum
 G                  C            D
and she's a part of this difficult world
 G                  C            D
and she wears outfits made of aluminium
C
she is a 23
D
she is a 23
C            D
she is a 23 and a half year old girl

 G               C           D
I am a part of the music continuum
 G               C           D
and I'm a part of this difficult world
 G               C           D
I'm often naked and play the accordion
C
I am a 33
D
I am a 33
C          D
I am a 33 and a half year old girl

 G               C           D
She is part of the music continuum
 G               C           D
and also part of this difficult world
 G                   C              D
she was the first one to often have no clothes on
C
she is not 53
D
she's only 50
C
but I used her anyway
D
'cause she fits well in this song

 G               C           D
Art is great; that way you can do anything
 G               C           D
you can make pop music
 G               C           D
you can paint ducks
 G               C           D
but if you're a pop star and you're a woman
 G               C           D
than it's much more likely that
 G               C           D
people will say your art sucks.

 G               C           D
Making pop music isn't for everyone
 G               C           D
Actually that's wrong it technically is
 G               C           D
That's why it's pop music
 G               C           D
now I've confused myself
 G               C           D
I'm gonna start a new verse and I'll say it like this

 G               C           D
Some artists focus on love and simplicity
 G               C           D
some artists focus on fashion and fame
 G               C           D
then sometimes some artists try to do everything
 G    C     D
which is impossible
 G               C           D
I think those people are brave.

G
Art is simple
C          D
just ask Andy Warhol
 G                          C              D
if he weren't dead he would tell you the truth
G
Call it a masterpiece
C         D
call it a urinal
G
it doesn't matter
       C                  D
It's art so there's nothi
ng to prove

 G                    C           D 
I'm not sure what the point of this song was
 G                            C           D
and I know this song doesn't actually have to have
D
any point at all
G        C          D
even good rhymes in it
C               D
like Lady GaGa and also Madonna
C                                    D
I'm just trying to entertain people, make a living and pay my rent,
C                                      D
without having to get a job I hate and hopefully find an audience 
C
who'll love and accept me
D
and not think I'm a narcissist
C
for wanting to be a performer and 
D
find true inner peace and that's it.


 G               C           D



 G               C           D
Now a question to further our dialogue
 G               C           D
Is all art real art and is pop art art?
 G               C           D
If someone talented wants to make pop music
 G               C           D                 G
why should we worry when there's so much other shit wrong?

G  		 Dm
when i was six years old my sister alyson
      F			  C	
asked for a stove for her birthday
  G			  Dm		
a miniature one you could actually cook with
    F			    C
and my mom was nice and she bought one

G                      Dm
alyson needed a reason to bake something
F                     C
barged in my room and she grabbed me, she said:
G                  Dm
"i made a cake and we're going next door
F                      C
to sam weinstein's and you're getting married"

G
the cake was burned
   Dm
it tasted gross
    F
she made me kiss him
C
on the mouth

G
now i am 33
Dm
unmarried happily
F                    C                       G

             Dm
i do kissing with only one mission
F                    C
do you like to kiss? then you have my permission

[Follow same pattern for the rest of the verses]

[Chorus: Use Single Chords]
         G               Dm
and i have already spent too much time
F            C
doing things i didn't want to
                     G                 Dm
so if i just want to make out all the time
        F                  C

[Bridge: Strum Slowly]
G               Dm

F              C

G               Dm
yes i come here often
F              C

but i don't have to talk to you

[End]

    G            Dm
and i've already spent too much time
F               C
doing things i didn't want to

G                        
so if i want to drink alone
Dm 
dressed like a pirate
   F
or look like a dyke
   C
or wear high heels and lipstick
   G
or hide in a convent
   Dm
or try to be mayor
   F
or marry a writer
   C
smoke crack and slash tires
     G
make jokes you don't like
     D
or paint ducks and retire

dear old house that I grew up in
C                          Fsus2
I know they're gonna leave you any day
C                         Fsus2
dear old house that I grew up in
G                             Fsus2
can't you find a way to make em stay?


Fsus2
and all the girls I went to school with
walked downtown with all the cool kids
     C
I was staked out in your cellar
making friends with dead umbrella
         Fsus2
and every creak of every floorboard
                                    G
tells the story of the girl I stuck inside
and if they move away
                        Fsus2         Fsus4
I?ll have no place to ? hide

C                         Fsus2
dear old house that I grew up in
G                       Fsus2
I?ve never really been in love
C                           Fsus2
you took my heart when I was a child
               G                            Fsus2
noises wrapped around my little body like a winter glove
you're just a random set of objects
in a town that's filled with sadness
       C
in the armpit of the world
you're chopped down trees and rotting soil
         Fsus2
and if I wanted to I?d keep you
I?d fill you up and heat you
         G
with the market how it is, Amanda
                                Fsus2    Fsus4
well you know, the price of ... oil
B-maj             Em                  C                G
Goodbye stairs, and goodbye stars on painted walls
B-maj            Em               C               G
attic door, and banister, I?ll miss you most of all
B-maj                 Em                 C                  G
I were supposed to keep you safe, this wasn't supposed to end
B-maj           Em            C        G        Fsus2
does it sound ridiculous, to call you my best friend?

C                         Fsus2
dear old house that I grew up in
G                           Fsus2
I know I haven't visited that much
C                                         Fsus2
but, every lifeless hotel and apartment I walk into
     G                                         Fsus2
just reminds me of the doorknobs that I want to touch
I won't miss you, when they sell you
to some evil yuppie couple
         C
with the child who'll put Miley Cyrus posters in my bedroom

Fsus2
I am a native of the north
I am a rockstar on the road
I am now permanently located in each place I am known
       G
but it doesn't feel like anywhere
                          Fsus2          Fsus4
when you can't go back... home

C                         Fsus2
dear old house that I grew up in
G                               Fsus2
I know it isn't your fault this went down,
C                                Fsus2
please don't take it personally,Love Amanda, PS,
         G
Tell the evil yuppie couple
Fsus2                       C
When I'm rich, I'll buy them out.

An Evening With Neil Gaiman & Amanda Palmer

Verse 1:
                  G                D
When i got to the party they gave me a forty
    C
and I must have been thirsty
D
'cause i drank it so quickly
G
When i got to the bedroom
D
there was somebody waiting
C                     D
and it isn't my fault that the barbarian raped me

                   G                         D
When I went to get tested I brought along my best friend
              C                          D
Melissa Mahoney (who had once been molested)
                    G
and she knew how to get there
                 D                            C
she knew all the nurses; they were all really friendly
                      D
but the test came out positive

Refrain:
     Em              C              D
I've had better days but I don't care
         Em               C        D
'cause I just sent a letter in the mail

Verse 2:
When I got my abortion I brought along my boyfriend
We got there an hour before the appointment
and outside the building were all these annoying
fundamentalist christians; we tried to ignore them

Refrain:
I've had better days but I don't care
Oasis got my letter in the mail

Chorus: G D C D

Verse 3:
When vacation was over
The word was all over that I was a crackwhore
Melissa had told them
and so now we're not talking except we have tickets
to see Blur in october and i think we're still going

Refrain:
I've seen better days but I don't care
oh, I just got a letter in the mail
Oasis sent a photograph it's autographed and everything
Melissa's gonna wet herself I swear

Who Killed Amanda Palmer

# Transcribed from the YouTube video of the performance at 
# Coachella: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BugnDCvFgU.
# Also fits the version you can get at 
#  http://music.amandapalmer.net/album/amanda-palmer-performs-the-popular-hits-of-radiohead-on-her-magical-ukulele

# There are a couple of unusual chords, but they match 
# Amanda's fingering and sound so I think they are correct 
# fingerings, even if the names are not strictly right.
# Cm(Maj7) is just like G (which it is always played with) but 
# with the finger lifted from the C string: the frets are 0032.
# FM9 is just like Csus4 (which it is always played with) but 
# with the finger lifted from the A string: the frets are 0010

Fake Plastic Trees

# Radiohead's "High and Dry", as perfomed by Amanda Palmer at the Butterfly Club (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr-oYrQyJMA)

# It's basically Em-G-D repeated, but with some variations on these chords during the chorus.

Em                             G                                     D
Two jumps in a week, I bet you think that's pretty clever, don't you boy?
Em                         G                                   D
Flying on your motorcycle, watching all the ground beneath you drop
      Em                             G                           D
You'd kill yourself for recognition. kill yourself to never ever stop
    Em                           G                              D
You broke another mirror. you're turning into something you are not

               Em    G
Don't leave me high,   
               D
don't leave me dry
               Em    *  **
Don't leave me high,   
               D
don't leave me dry

# * is Em but with the finger lifted off the A string
# ** is G but with a finger on the fifth fret of the A string.

# The EP version which you can hear and buy here:
# http://music.amandapalmer.net/album/amanda-palmer-performs-the-popular-hits-of-radiohead-on-her-magical-ukulele
# is a bit different - instead of Em-G-D the uke plays D-Dsus2-D
# while the piano plays E,G,D bass notes on each chord change.

G            Bm       
I have a little house
Em       D               G        Bm    Em
Close to town but not to the city
         D                 G      Bm    Em
Far from home but near my family
         D                  G      Bm    
No water views but so close to the sea
  Em            D            G          Bm     Em  D
I see, this is how my little life could be
                G             Bm     Em
And I'm filling it with things
          D           G        Bm      Em
Like furniture I find on the street
             D                 G        Bm    Em
And all the special things I'd like to eat
            D               G       Bm          Em      
Pictures of people that I'd like to meet, I'll meet them
           D            Em
While I'm orbiting the world
              D              Em     D 
And it's so pretty and so lonely
           G      Bm  Em         D                  G   Bm      Em
My lovely love affairs are all scheduled 'round the TV guide
           D                  G     Bm      Em
And my sex life has all been plagiarized
       D                 G        Bm    Em   D
In an attempt to meet a harsh deadline
            G          Bm   Em
I'd like to rent a wife
             D               G          Bm  Em
Then rent a husband to keep her for life
             D               G       Bm
The three of us, we could be so happy
Em              D               G   Bm
Them with each other, me with company
      Em               D                   Em
I'll see them off on a flight around the world
             D              Em   D
And it's so pretty and so lonely
             Em                D
I could just die, I might just die
             Em                D
I could just die, I might just die
          G      Bm    Em
And at my funeral
               D              G        Bm   Em
They will say Tom he was such a nice guy
             D            G        Bm       Em
He went too early but he went in style
                 D              G        Bm     Em  
They'll play my music and then they will cry
D                    G         Bm      Em
Then they'll have a little wake
                  D                     G        Bm    Em
They'll drink bad wine and they'll eat lemon cake
        D               G          Bm     Em  
And my mother's little heart will break
                D                       G         Bm 
And she'll say "Wait there must be must some mistake.
    Em        D       G      Bm      Em
He can't be dead, take me instead"
D               Em
Oh, but I'm not dead
                      D
They tell me I'm not dead
                          Em
And they say that I'm not dead
                 D
And that I won't die for some time
      G           Bm  Em
In my little house
              D              G          Bm    Em
Just writing little songs to pass the time
           D                G          Bm    Em
Which incidentally is seven forty nine
              D          G          Bm      Em
So don't you worry I'm completely fine, I'm fine
             D           G          Bm       Em
And don't you worry I'm completely fine, I'm fine
           D          G          Bm       Em
Don't you worry I'm completely fine, I'm fine

C       Em
I wouldn't kill to win a war
                            C       Em
I don't get what they do it for
                      C       Em
It's all so terribly vague
                          D
I see the pictures from a thousand years of battle
                        C       Em
And I think it's such a bore
                          C       Em
I walk New Orleans with a knife
                          C       Em
Like Mackie hidden out of sight
                          C       Em
But I'd be useless if they jumped
                           D
I'm really not the killing type

I've got a picture of your mum
                            C       Em
Before the war when she was young
                            C       Em
She's got an etching to her right
                              D
I think it's funny that she's looking to the left and it's her son
                           C       Em
I wouldn't kill to get you back
                         C       Em
And I've officially been asked
                          C      Em
I couldn't kill to save a life
                          D
I'd rather die a peaceful piece of shit-bait, shame-filled coward, thanks

I don't mean kill someone for real
                          C       Em
I couldn't do that, it is wrong
                      A5
But I can say it in a song, a song, a song
  
                  C

I once stepped on a dying bird
                        C
It was a mercy killing, I couldn't sleep for a week
Em
I kept feeling its breaking bones
  C
I heard
Em                           C
   That if you see a star at night
Em                             C
   And the conditions are just right
Em                           C
   And you are standing on a cliff
Em                                  D

I see you staring into space

I wanna stick my fist into your mouth and twist your arctic heart

Yes, I would kill to make you feel

Bm                                Em
We are friends in a sleeping bag, splitting the heat
        G                    C              G              C
We have one filthy pillow to share and your lips are in my hair
G                      Bm 
Someone upstairs has a rat that we laughed at
    Em
And people are drinking
    G                     C           G       C
And singing Van Halen and Slayer on a ukulele tear

G
Bm        
Well, we found an apartment
Em
It's not much to look at
G            C
A futon on a floor
         G             C
Torn-off desktop for a door
G                       Bm
All the decor's made of milk crates and duct tape
Em
And if we have sex
         G                   C
They can hear us through the floor
             G          C
But we don't do that anymore
       
    G                      Em
And I lay there wondering, what is the matter?
G                   Em
Is this a matter of worse or of better?
G                        Em
You took the blanket, so I took the bedsheet
G                            Em
But I would have held you if you'd only
C
Let me

G
Bm
Look how quaint
                  Em
And how quiet and private
                   G                    C
Our paychecks have bought us a condo in town
         G           C
It's the nicest flat around
G                         Bm
You picked a mattress and had it delivered
    Em
And I walked upstairs
        G                         C
And the sight of it made my heart pound
      G               C
And I wrapped my arms around me
       
    G                        Em
And I stood there wondering, what is the matter?
G                   Em
Is this a matter of worse or of better?
G                            Em
You walked right past me and straightened the covers
G                                 Em       C
But I would still love you if you wanted a lover


        C                           Em    D      G  Cdim    Am      Bm       C     
But you said, 'All the money in the world won't buy a       bed so big and wide,
                           Em D    G     Cdim    Am       Bm     C                           
to guarantee that you won't acci - dentally      touch me in the night.' 

G
Exhibit D
Bm
Now we're both mostly paralyzed
Em                             G             C
Don't know how long we've been lying here in fear
      G            C
Too afraid to even feel
G                     Bm
I find my glasses and you turn the light out
       Em
Roll off on your side
            G               C
Like you've rolled away for years
        G                    C
Holding back those king-size tears

    G                      Em
And I still don't ask you, what is the matter?
G                   Em
Is this a matter of worse or of better?
G                  
You take the heart failure
Em
I'll take the cancer
G                           Em            C
I've long stopped wondering why you don't answer

G
Exhibit E
        Bm                   Em
You can certainly see how fulfilling a life
         G                C            G             C
From the cost and size of stone of our final resting home
G                           Bm
We got some nice ones right under a cherry tree
Em                   G           C
You and me lying the only way we know
        G                  C
Side by side and still and cold

    G                  Em
And I finally ask you, what was the matter?
G                  Em
Was it a matter of worse or of better?
G                             Em
You stretch your arms out and finally face me
        G                           
You say I would have told you
   Em         C
If you'd only asked me
   Em         C
If you'd only asked me
   Em         C
If you'd only asked me

The Bed Song

F C Dm Bb

Piece of cake. But here are the lyrics with the chords just in case:


F           C              Dm              Bb
Hearts on a string like an older-fashioned phone can
F          C            Dm                 Bb
BANG ringy ring and you think you're gonna get some
F             C          Dm            Bb
Thing you can bring to a party at your wake not
F               C              Dm                Bb
Thinking of the thing that you pay back when you take it...
Bb
Take it

     F         C               Dm             Bb
Like rats in a cage pushed the button got the shock
trick
F                C
Snickers in your bag
Dm                    Bb
Had your number but I lost it
F            C            Dm           Bb
Bets are all off you're a lily-livered giver indie 
F             C              Dm             Bb
In the hidden costs you're a sucker and you win
 

           F                     C                               
It doesn't matter if you want it back
                Dm
You've given it away
                Bb
You've given it away
           F                     C
It doesn't matter if you want it back
                Dm
You've given it away
Dm
Away, away, away, away, away, oh

 
F    C  Dm          Bb
He's al-ready on the outskirts
F   C     Dm            Bb
I'm still pulling at his sweatshirt
F  C    Dm           Bb
He says fate is not a factor
F   C  Dm             Bb
I'm in love with every actor


So
F                C          Dm            Bb
Once when you're gone and I wanna do it backwards
F             C             Dm             Bb
Just like the song, we're addicted to the L-word
F            C               Dm                Bb              
Up past your head, down your back, around your ankles
F          C              Dm                      Bb
Ready for attack, you're upstaged and then you're strangled

F                   C                Dm               Bb 
Cringe like you're cursed with your wrecking ball-y necklace
F        C           Dm                 Bb
I saw it first and I crushed it with my hamfist
F             C      Dm
High for the contest who's the better
Bb
not see
F             C                  Dm                  Bb
Eye to eye to eye and now you're blind and you can't catch me...
Bb
Catch me


F     C  Dm          Bb
If you can
(he's al-ready on the outskirts)
 F   C     Dm            Bb
If you can
(I'm still pulling on his sweatshirt)
 F  C    Dm            Bb
If you can
(he says fate is not a factor)
 F   C  Dm             Bb
If you can
(I'm in love with every actor)


           F                     C
It doesn't matter if you want it back
                Dm
You've given it away
                Bb
You've given it away
           F                     C
It doesn't matter if you want it back
                Dm
You've given it away
                Bb
You've given it away...


F    C  Dm          Bb
He's al-ready on the outskirts
F    C    Dm            Bb
I'm still pulling at his sweatshirt
F  C    Dm          Bb
He says fate is not a factor
F   C  Dm            Bb
I'm in love with every actor...


I will let you go if you will let some
I will let you go if you will let somebody
I will let you go if you will let somebody love you
I will let you go if you will let somebody love you like 
I will let you go if you will let somebody love you like i do...

Want It Back

F
I never met a lady
C        Bb
Quite as pretty as Melody Dean
F
And when I laid my head down on her 
C        Bb
heart it beated out your name
F
And so I had to 
C
listen to her
Bb 
heart beat several hundred times and
F
She was very 
C
nice about it
Bb
Held my hand and didn't mind
F
I never put my foot in the same 
C        Bb
River twice I don't like getting wet
F
You take the good you take the bad
C        Bb
You take it all and that is all you get
F
The fact is you would rather I be 
C        Bb
lonely in a bathtub with a book
F
The fact is you would rather I sat 
C        Bb
Pining on our pictures from New York

New York, New York, New York

But

F C Bb
I get torn to pieces
F C Bb
For the stupidest reasons
F C Bb
All I want's to love the one I'm with
Just like the song says

F
I don't like picking sides I don't like
C        Bb 
Sticking my Sharona in a box
F
I like to spread her out on different 
C        Bb
Crackers, yeah I like the way she looks
F
And when I go to bed at night with 
C Bb
Melody undressing in my head
F
To get tot sleep you know that I would 
C        Bb
Rather be undressing you instead
Instead, instead, instead

F
I never met a lady quite as 
C
Pretty as Melody Dean and
Bb
Even though I know you are a little bit angry with me
F
You know that it is you I love
C
And you I want to get me off
Bb
But you can only do that when you're here
And right now you are not
F

F
I never cross the Continental 
C        Bb
Divide without thinking about you
F
I am a tree that's carved up with her
C        Bb 
Name she is a warrior tattoo
F
And the fact is you're selective about 
C        Bb
what you can remember for a start
F
The fact is you're just jealous as all 
C        Bb
Get out we can do it in the dark
The dark, the dark, the dark

But

F C Bb
I get torn to pieces
F C Bb
For the stupidest reasons
F C Bb
All I want's to love the one I'm with
Just like Steven Stills says

F
I never met a lady quite as 
C
Pretty as Melody Dean and
Bb
Even though I know you are a little bit angry with me
F
You know that it is you I love
C
And you I want to get me off
Bb
But you can only do that when you're here
And right now you are not

So fists into the lips of fashion

Pictures or it didn't happen

C                              D
I had such an awful dream last night
C                          D
Everybody's faces were too tight
C                                       D
Please don't leave me in this nightless light

The end is near and it's high time

    F        C
The light's amazing, man
   F         C
So time your Instagram
    F       C
The rapture swallowing the
F
Land, but we're the last ones laughing
Pictures or it didn't happen

Get it 'cause we'll all be dead
And no one dead can use a camera

C                              D
I had such an awful dream last night
C                          D
Everybody's faces went all white
C
Everybody in the world was either
Getting killed or getting footage of the killing
                                          D
That they sent to surgeons working in the sky

C
I don't wanna

I don't wanna go to
                    C
I don't wanna go to Cali
                    D
I don't wanna go to California

                C    D
I don't want to die

I don't want to die

I'm asking for a smaller heart

To get what I am asking for

       Bb          C
Now my heart is exactly the size
     F                    Bb 
Of a six-sided die cut in half
        F                Bb
Made of ruby red stained glass
      Bb                       C              
Can I knock you unconscious as long as I promise

I'll love you and I'll make you laugh?

Como intro:
Desnudar el sin razón
que modelo nuestras vidas
Parece ser causa perdida.

Nadie apuesta detener
el motor que contamina
el aire que a diario respiras

Am
Y que respiraste ayer,
Como intro
y que mañana tal vez, no lo sé.
Por eso hoy

Reflexionando en esto,

la madrugada pasó,

y dejó otro día para ser.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser

Culpable o inocente, malviviente o juez.
O quien con sólo su firma decreta la ley.
Pronucleares informistas modelan la situación.
Más tecnología, por más energía.
Fuga radiactiva de progreso.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser.

Como cualquier día, como todo día
Con o sin mi reflexión.

Beautiful Girls

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

Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear

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

Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

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

La la la la la la la la Yeah,

como el agua se nos fue . . .

líbrame . . .

Oh! líbrame . . .

Líbrame de la galaxia

ya no ves . . .

lo que ya sé nos pasó

respirar y oxidar,

y como fondo un cielo.

no es solo un burro,

que es un ángel de fe,

tal vez

me sentirás tal vez

me sentirás

las aguas en tus ojos

vibran su dulce brillo

una piel y una flor

son tus pechos,

que no piensan menos mal,

oh por favor,

gira loca girasol . . .

déjame como estoy,

ya te amé y allí morí,

quédate quédate oh!

déjame explicarte,

solo extiéndete una vez más . . .

extiéndete una vez más . . .

eres mi esperanza,

solo una grieta en mi existir . . .

no somos solo cuerpos,

y como un fondo un cielo . . .

no es solo un burro,

que es un ángel de fe

tal vez me sentirás

tal vez me sentirás

Resistirse a complacer

INTRO: DOm - FA - MIb - LA# - DOm - MIb - FA - LA# - DOm

DOm - FA - MIb - LA#

DOm LA# DOm LA#
Saber que es lo que te pasa, sabes a veces lleva tiempo

DOm LA#
Es que el amor es una ciencia exacta,

DOm LA#
Y el dolor suele ser un misterio

SOL# DOm
Salir, parece buena idea,

SOL# DOm
Escapar, esa no es la manera de seguir

SOL# DOm
No esperar que el tiempo arregle todo,

SI LA#
Cuestión de encontrar el modo de reír

DOm FA MIb LA# DOm
Y si no estas bien, no te desarmes

FA MIb LA# DOm
Ponte de pie y andar y andar

FA MIb LA# DOm
No los escuchés pueden marearte

FA MIb LA# DOm
Solo saben hablar, y hablar y hablar

PUENTE: DOm LA# DOm LA#


DOm LA# DOm LA# DOm
A donde vas? No entiendo, no

LA# DOm LA#
Por que estas mintiendo?

DOm FA MIb LA# DOm
Y si no estas bien, no te desarmes

FA MIb LA# DOm
Ponte de pie y andar y andar…

FA MIb LA# DOm
No los escuchés pueden marearte

FA MIb LA# DOm
Solo saben hablar, y hablar y hablar...


SOLO: DOm LA#

FINAL: DOm - FA - MIb - LA# - DOm - MIb - FA - LA#

Andar

C
Working the village shop
E
Putting a poster up
Am
Dreaming of anything
C              Am               Em               Dm
Dreaming of the time when you're free from all the trouble you're in

C
In the mud, on your knees
E
Trying hard not to please
Am
Anyone, all the time
C              Am
Being a rebel's fine
           Em            C
But you go all the way to being brutal

Chorus:
G
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
F
On the first bus out of town
On the first bus out of town

Let's see your kit for games
All the girls look the same
You are challenging style for running miles
You're running miles in some boy's jumper

Boo to the business world!
You know a girl who's tax free on her back and making
Plenty cash
While you are working for the joy of giving

Chorus:
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
And you hope that she will see
And you hope that she will see

You are in two minds
Tossing a coin to decide whether you should tell your mum
About a dose of thrush you got while licking railings

But you read in a book
That you got free from Boots
There are lotions, there are potions
You can take to hide your shame from all those prying eyes

Lazy Jane, all the time
Painting lines
You sleeping at bus stops
Wondering how you got your name
And what you're going to do about it.
