The Black Keys are a two-man blues-rock group from Akron, Ohio, United States which formed in 2001, consisting of singer and guitarist Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney. The band name was inspired by a schizophrenic artist and friend in Akron, who used the term &quot;black keys&quot; to describe things he disliked or people he did not trust. The Black Keys have roots in traditional blues and psychedelic rock stylings.  

The Black Keys est un groupe de blues rock américain originaire d'Akron dans l'état de l'Ohio. Le groupe est composé de deux membres, le chanteur et guitariste Dan Auerbach et le batteur Patrick Carney.  Les Black Keys sont souvent comparés avec le groupe The White Stripes parce que tous deux sont des duos influencés par le blues rock ayant émergés à quelques mois d'intervalle. Pourtant, le son des Black Keys est beaucoup plus enraciné dans le blues traditionnel et moins pop rock que celui des White Stripes. 

Die Bluesrockband &quot;The Black Keys&quot; besteht aus Dan Auerbach (Voc/Git) und Patrick Carney (Dru) aus Akron, Ohio in den USA. Der Bandname stammt von einem Freund der beiden, der Personen, die ihm nicht gefielen oder von denen er meinte, man könne ihnen nicht trauen, als 

The Black Keys son un duo de blues-rock formado en el 2001 por Dan Auerbach y Patrick Carney en la ciudad de Akron, Ohio, Estados Unidos.  El nombre de la banda se inspiró en un artista amigo del grupo que padecía de esquizofrenia y que usaba el término black keys para describir a &quot;las personas que no estaban del todo bien&quot;. Un doble significado también puede interpretarse como el hecho de que las teclas negras (black keys) de un piano comprenden una escala pentatónica menor empezando en mi bemol mayor, que se asocia frecuentemente con el blues y el rock. 

INTRO:  Em

VERSE 1:

Em
My gears they grind
More each day
      Am
And I feel like
                    Em
They're gonna grind away


And the city blocks
They drive me wild
Am
The never ending
           Em
Mile after mile


CHORUS:

          C       Bm         Am  Dsus2/G (3x0230)
I just don't know what to do
          Em
I'm too afraid to love you


VERSE 2:

Em
It's heaven on earth
It's in her embrace
Am
Her gentle touch
            Em
Her smiling face

I'm just one wishing
Halo was up here
Am
With someone 
        Em
Oh, somewhere


CHORUS:

          C       Bm         Am  Dsus2/G 
I just don't know what to do
          Em
I'm too afraid to love you


BRIDGE:

Am
All those sleepless nights
And all those wasted days
       Em
I wish loneliness would leave me
But I think it's here to stay

Am
What more can I do?
'Caus I'm wringing myself dry
      Bm
And I can't afford to lose
One more teardrop from my eyes


OUTRO:

Em
I'm too afraid
I'm too afraid
I just don't know what to do
With myself

Thinking all the time
Don't know what to do
Don't know what to do
Driving me out of my mind

Too Afraid To Love You

F#m
Can't explain 
E
Nor can I contain
F#m 
Control
E 
You have on my soul 
F#m
It's all I do 
E
Is baby dream of you 
F#m
I'm falling down 
E
When you're around 

F#m
You're the only one 
E
You're the only one 
I'm so wrapped up in your gaze 
Hoping this is just a phase 
But when all is said and done 
I know you are still the one 
You're the only one 
You're the only one 
Cupids bow has stung 
Now you're the only one 

Mystery 
Is what this is to me 
I'm Giving up 
I'm having no luck 
Like a ghost 
The one that I love most 
She disappears
When I get near 

You're the only one 
You're the only one 
I'm so wrapped up in your gaze 
Hoping this is just a phase 
But when all is said and done 
I know you are still the one 
You're the only one 
You're the only one 
Cupids bow has stung 
Now you're the only one

Intro : 
Bm - A6 - Em - F# 
 
  Bm             A6
I wanted love, I needed love,
    Em         F#
Most of all, most of all
 Bm           A6
Someone said true love was dead
    Em                  F#
And I'm bound to fall, bound to fall
          Bm         A6                    Em     F#
For you,               But what can I do?
Bm A6 Em F#

the same for the other parts:
 
Take my badge but my heart remains
Lovin' you, baby child
Tighten up on your reigns
You're runnin' wild, runnin' wild
It's true

Sick for days in so many ways
I'm achin' now, I'm achin' now
It's times like these I need relief
Please show me how, show me how
To get right

When I was young and moving fast
Nothing slowed me down, slowed me down
Now I let the others pass
I've come around, come around

Pont : Bm - F#m - Bm - F#m - Bm - F#m - D - E

 Bm            F#m
Living just to keep going
 Bm               F#m
Going just to stay sane
 Bm               F#m
All the while never knowing
D     E
      It's such a shame

  Bm               F#m
I don't need to get steady
 Bm           F#m
I know just how I feel
   Bm             F#m
I'm telling you to get ready
A   E
   My dear

These Days

[Verse 1]
Dm            C
I've been tried
Am7            Gm
And I've been tested
Dm            C
I was born tired
Am7            Gm
And I never got rested
Dm            C
Harder than 
Am7            Gm
Marble stone
Dm            C
I'm better off
Am7            Gm
Better off left alone

[Chorus]
Dm            F/C       
Cause I'm not the one
Am7            Gm9
No I'm not the one
Bb             Am7
You wanted it all
Bb             Am7
But I'll give you, give you none
Dm
Cause, I'm not the one

[Verse 2]
Well, like a toy
To a kid
I said jump
And mama you did
You know, your daddy knows
And your mama knows
That's wrong
So now it's time
For me to move on

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
You think
That I'm normal
But all these years
I'm just trying to warn you
You'd do good
To move on
No it won't
Hurt me none

[Chorus}

Psychotic Girl

This song was a pain to get down. It might contain a few errors.



Ab
It happened when I heard her name
Ab
Same old thoughts crept back again
       Bbm
Oh and grew, they grew
Ab
Somewhere in my sorry state 

Lightning struck that old iron gate
      Bbm
It's true, yes it's true 
Ab
The snow and cold, the winter wind
Ab
Smacks you on your cheeks again
       Bbm
And it stings, oh it stings

Taking over baby to the dollar machine
Em                                   Bm
That party dress is such a mess

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,

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

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

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.
