 &quot;The Weepies&quot; est un duo Pop-Folk composé de Deb Talan et de  Steve Tannen, deux chanteurs/guitaristes ayant déjà sorti des albums solo. Ils se rencontrent au Tannen's concert à Boston. Admirateurs mutuels, ils commencent immédiatement à écrire des chansons ensemble et donne ainsi  naissance au groupe.  En 2003, ils écrivent la chanson &quot;Happiness&quot; et signent deux ans plus tard avec Nettwerk. En décembre 2005 le label sort en avant première l'album &quot;Say I Am You&quot;, qui a été enregistré dans une location de chalet à Pasadena (Californie).

And I can't keep still
C                            D               G
Listen up, lover listen up, I never will

G                  C        G                D
Wings move faster than the human eye

And if you could see my heart

Well, if you could see my heart,
G                      C
Kept from flying outwards
G                     D
Somehow I don't know
C
Wonder I don't come apart
D
Wonder I don't come apart

Yours is the only one that I dare land upon

Maybe if you came about
Am           F                              C
Maybe if you turned this ship around
Am            F              C
If you waited this one out
    Am            F       C
and just put your head down

G                C              Am
Oh, in your dreams you find out
G                C              Am
Though it's not quite how you remember
G                C              Am
In your dreams you find out 

F                 Am
Everything's greener
C            F       Am      F     C
You're still hard to please

Am      F         C
Maybe if you lightened up
Am           F      C
Maybe if you wrote that anthem
Am           F      C
Raising high a Dixie Cup
Am          F          C
Don't put your hand down

G             F                     C
What is it worth to you to be a free someone?
G            F                                  
What is it worth to you? What would you do?
     C
Everything.

Am           F      C
Maybe if you came about
Am           F      C
Baby don't you run this ship aground
Am           F      C
Feet of water in the well
Am           F      C
but you can't keep her head down
Am           F      C
No, you can't keep her head down

G     D                   Cadd9
Gray, quiet and tired and mean,
D  			   G
Picking at a worried seam,
  D				 C9
I try to make you mad at me
Em7      D
Over the phone.

G    D                 Cadd9
Red, eyes and fire and signs,
    D                  G
I'm taken by a nursery rhyme,
  D                     Cadd9
I want to make a ray of sunshine,
    Em7            D
And never leave me home.

CHORUS:

No amount of coffee, no amount of crying,

No amount of whiskey, no amount of wine,

No, no, no, no, no.

Nothing else will do, I gotta have you

BRIDGE:

The road gets cold,

There's no spring in the middle this year,
Em7          D           Cadd9        D
And I'm the new chicken clucking open hearts and ears.
Em7        D
Oh, such a prima donna,
Cadd9     D
Sorry for myself.
Em7             D
But green, it's also summer,

And I won't be warm until I'm laying in your arms.

Guitar, suitcase, and a warm coat,

Verse 1:
G              D               C            D
Thunder rumbles in the distance, a quiet intensity
G           D                C                  D
I am willful, your insistence is tugging at the best of me
           C             D
You're the moon, I'm the water
       C                  D
You're Mars, calling up Neptune's daughter

Chorus:
G                     D          C    D
Sometimes rain that's needed falls
G                 D           C                    D
We float like two lovers in a painting by Chagall
              G                 D
All around is sky and blue town
                C                        D
Holding these flowers for a wedding gown
          G                    D                 C        D
We live so high above the ground, satellites surround us.

G   D   C   D

Verse 2:
I am humbled in this city
There seems to be an endless sea of people like us
Wakeful dreamers, I pass them on the sunlit streets
       C                 D
In our rooms filled with laughter
        C                 D
We make hope from every small disaster

Chorus:
G                     D          C    D
Sometimes rain that's needed falls Ooohhhh
G                 D           C                    D
We float like two lovers in a painting by Chagall
              G                 D
All around is sky and blue town
                C                        D
Holding these flowers for a wedding gown
          G                    D                 C        D
We live so high above the ground, satellites surround us.

F  high G
Everybody says "you can't, you can't, you can't, don't try."
C                         D                             D

G                              D
Woke up and wished that I was dead
                     Cadd9
With an aching in my head
                     D
I lay motionless in bed
             Cadd9                  G   D
I thought of you and where you'd gone
            Cadd9      D     G
and let the world spin madly on

Everything that I said I'd do
Like make the world brand new
And take the time for you
I just got lost and slept right through the dawn
And the world spins madly on

B           Cadd9   G
I    let the day go by
I     always say goodbye
B            Cadd9  A 
I watch the stars from my window sill
    Cadd9                    D
The whole world is moving and I'm standing still

Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
The night is here and the day is gone
And the world spins madly on

I thought of you and where you'd gone
And the world spins madly on.

World Spins Madly On

C                           F     C
You look darkly on the day
C                               F
With memories to light your way
F                         G 
A little sad but it's all right
F             G
We are always living in twilight

C                             F     C
No one knocks upon your door
C                            F
Until you don't care anymore
F                           G
A little alone but it's all right
F             G
We are always living in twilight

Am                 F                         C           G
Living in a dream, walking in between the sunrise and sunset
Am                 F                     C           G
Living in a dream, walking in between sunset and sunrise

C                            F  C
You get tied up in your day
C                          F
so I let go and walk away
F                               G
And now we're loose ends of the night
F              G
We are always living in twilight

F           G                       C                 Am
So it goes, though no one knows you like they used to do
F                G              C               Am
Have a drink the sky is sinking toward a deeper blue
                    F
And you're still all right
G
Step out into twilight

C                          F  C
So I stumble home at night

Living In Twilight

Am Em F G

Em               Am          F        G
I watch the sun go down, 
Em               Am          F        G
I watch the sun go down
Em               Am          F        G
Then I wander around, 
Em               Am          F        G
then I wander around

F
It's here then it's gone 
E
Love doesn't last too long

Em               Am         F         G
I didn't even have time 
Em               Am         F         G
to get it straight in my mind 
Em               Am         F         G
To catch up from behind, 
Em               Am         F         G
to see that I was blind

F
And I wish I was wrong
E
But love doesn't last too long

E
All you lovers in the dark
F
 can forget what I said
E
'Cause it still goes on in my heart

F
And it still goes on in my head
Em              Am          F            G
Rivers to the sea,
Em              Am          F            G
Rivers to the sea 
Em              Am          F            G
How it is right now 
Em              Am          F            G
is how it's always gonna be 

F
It's here then it's gone
E
Love doesn't last too long

Em              Am          F            G
I watch the sun go down, 
Em              Am          F            G
I watch the sun go down 
Em              Am          F            G
Then I wander around
Em              Am          F            G
Then I wander around
Em              Am          F            G
Then I wander around

What can I compare you to, a favorite pair of shoes?
G             A                Bm            A
Maybe my bright red boots if they had wings
G             A                Bm            Asus4  A
Funny how we animate colorful objects saved

Funny how it's hard to take a love with no sting

G                       A           Bm         A
But come on take it, come on take it, take it from me

Rain turns the sand into mud

Nights when the heat had gone out

We danced together alone 
  C               Am          Em       G
Cold turned our breath into clouds 
 C        Am       Em               G
We never said what we were dreaming of 
  F                G              C
But you turned me into somebody loved. 


  F                 G       C
Someday when we're old and worn
 Dm        C        F         G
Like two softened shoes
F                 G         C
I will wonder on how I was born 
     Dm      C         F         G
The night I first ran away from you.


         C             Am         Em       G
Now my feet turn the corner back home
 C              Am       Em     G
Sun turns the evening to rose
  C            Am      Em       G
Stars turning high up above

Everything you needed done was done for you

Now you do it on your own

But you find you're all alone, what can you do?

The night will have no stars 
 F                                          C       F C
And you'll think you've gone as far as you will ever get

But in the end, the only steps that

Matter are the ones you take all by yourself

Neon cafe sign across the street is glowing red

A reckless day in sparkle rooms

Every day I want to freeze frame

Scrambling my sleep to keep this fragile frame
         Am             Fsus2  G
From the wind, from the driving rain
Am         Fsus2      G                  Dm      G
Soon as it begins it begins to change its strange changes

Standing in the garden

Gathering the dusk

Same Changes

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,

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

It takes a while to get used to the rhythm. In the verse the
time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.

get a friend to strum the chords: C, G, Em, D in the background
