# Chorus (Intro)
            Eb           D
If I could write you a song,
              Gm
 And make you fall in love, 
          Eb D           Gm
 I would already have you up under my arm.
           Eb      D
 I used up all my tricks,
            Gm
 I hope that you like this.
          Eb      D
 But you probably won't, 
                   Gm
 You think you're cooler than me.
 
          Eb       D
 You got designer shades, 
         Gm
 Just to hide your face and
      Eb        D
 You wear them around like, 
         Gm
 You're cooler than me.
          Eb       D
 And you never say hey, 
     Gm
 Or remember my name. and
       Eb       D
 It's probably cause, 
                   Gm
 you think you're cooler than me.

31 Minutes to Takeoff

[Verse]
      
                  G
I took a pill in Ibiza
          D
To show Avicii I was cool
              Em
And when I finally got sober, felt 10 years older
     G
But fuck it, it was something to do

                  G
I'm living out in LA
            D
I drive a sports car just to prove
       Em                      G
I'm a real big baller cause I made a million dollars
        D                    G
And I spend it on girls and shoes


[Chorus]

                        G
But you don't wanna be high like me
                      D
Never really knowing why like me
                      Em                                       G
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
                          G
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
                       D
Never knowing who to trust like this
                    Em
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
  G
Stuck up on that stage singing
 G     D             Em         G
All I know are sad songs, sad songs

Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs


[Verse]

             G          D
I'm just a singer who already blew his shot

I get along with old timers
           G                     D                G
Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot
                    G
And I can't keep a girl, no
          D
Cause as soon as the sun comes up
   Em                    G
I cut em all loose and work's my excuse
         D                    G
But the truth is I can't open up


[Chorus]

                        G
But you don't wanna be high like me

                      G
I took a plane to my home town
               D
I brought my pride and my guitar
         Em
All my friends are all gone but there's manicured lawns
          G
And the people still think I'm a star
                  G
I walked around downtown
            D
I met some fans in life I earned
           Em
They said tell us how to make it cause we're getting real impatient
       G
So I looked em in the eye and said

You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
                          G
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
                       D

Took A Pill In Ibiza

At Night, Alone.

Intro:

Em Bm G D x 2


  Em                   Bm
Virginia Woolf and poetry
                          
No one seemed to notice me
D                       Em
Being young was getting so old
Em                     Bm
Cheap beer and cigarettes

Life was like a movie set
G                        D
And I seemed to be given no role

Pre-Chorus:

       Em
But in times of trouble
Bm
I can turn to my mother
      D                      Em
And I know that she gon' understand
      Em
So at age 18
Bm
I cried to my mother
        G               D
And she told me, "young man"

Chorus:
                            Em          Bm
"There are moments when you fall to the ground
                              G            D
But you are stronger than you feel you are now
                         Em           Bm
You don't always have to speak so loud, no
G              D
Just be as you are
                      Em         Bm
Life is not always a comfortable ride
                G               D
Everybody's got scars that they hide
                        Em            Bm
And everybody plays the fool sometimes, yeah
G              D
Just be as you are"


     Em                    Bm
They played me on the radio

And everything was changing, so
D                       Em
I thought I was all the way grown
    Em                     Bm
But I can still remember in that cold November
      G                 D
When I realized I'm all alone

Pre-Chorus:

       Em
But in times of trouble
Bm
I can turn to my mother
      D                      Em
And I know that she gon' understand
      Em
So at age 22
Bm
I cried to my mother
        G               D
And she told me, "young man"

Chorus:
                            Em          Bm
"There are moments when you fall to the ground
                              G            D
But you are stronger than you feel you are now
                         Em           Bm
You don't always have to speak so loud, no
G              D
Just be as you are

It doesn't matter if you become some star

Life is better when you open your heart

If I'm speaking truthfully
                        
I'm not who I used to be
D                       C
And I know some people might laugh
         C                       Bm
Cause my music doesn't sound the same

And my head's no longer shaved

But in times of trouble

I can turn to my mother

And I know that she gon' understand

So at age 26

Be As You Are

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,

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

I picked apart every word that you said
  Bm                              A
I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
D                         A
the way you are leaves me counting the days
        Bm                            A
till the next time this distance will be a memory


D                        A        
Right now is all we have you better make this count
Bm                     D
these are the moments i wish i could forget you.


D                            A                                          Bm
I think back to the nights I looked into your bright green eyes and you said,
     Em   A
lets run away.
D                            A                              Bm
its 9am the sun wont rise for 3 more hours pacific time you said
     Em   A
lets run away.

D-A-Bm-A

                                                                        Bm

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.

Gonna Be A Long Time

[intro x2]
A  E  D A

A                                        E
when there's no place you feel at home
              D                               A
and you think you'd be better off alone
A                                          E
when you think there's no reason to try
               D                           A
and you hate yourself and wanna die

A                                      E
when you're filled with anxiety
             D                   A
and everyone's your enemy
A                                        E
when you wish you were someone else
                 D                        A
and you wanna go out and kill yourself

when you get yourself depressed
                      D                   A
because you think you can't do your best
A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song
           D                        A
to remind yourself that you forgot

[chorus]

E D                 A

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.
