The Four Tops are an American Motown musical quartet, whose repertoire has included doo-wop, jazz, soul music, rnb, disco, adult contemporary, showtunes, and even psychedelic rock. Founded in Detroit, Michigan as The Four Aims, lead singer Levi Stubbs and group mates Abdul &quot;Duke&quot; Fakir, Renaldo &quot;Obie&quot; Benson, and Lawrence Payton remained together for over four decades, finally forced to endure a lineup change when Payton died in 1997. At that time, Theo Peoples was added to the lineup; Peoples later replaced Stubbs, who fell ill from cancer, and Ronnie McNeir assumed Peoples' spot.

The Four Tops est un quartet de Motown américain dont le répertoire était principalement composé des styles doo-wop, jazz, soul music, R&amp;B, et disco.  Ce groupe, originaire de Détroit, était composé à la base des membres Levi Stubbs (un cousin du chanteur Jackie Wilson), de Abdul &quot;Duke&quot; Fakir, Renaldo &quot;Obie&quot; Benson, et de Lawrence Payton. Au fil des années, les membres quitteront successivement le groupe, puis seront par la suite remplacés par d'autres connaissances.  

Die Four Tops waren eine afro-amerikanische Soul-Gesangsband aus Detroit, die 1953 von Renaldo Benson (genannt &quot;Obie&quot;), Abdul Fakir (genannt &quot;Duke&quot;), Lawrence Payton und Levi Stubbs gegründet wurde. Sie nannten sich damals noch <span title="Unknown artist" class="bbcode_unknown">Four Aims</span>. 1956 erhielten sie einen Plattenvertrag von Chateau Records und nahmen ihre erste Platten auf. Bald darauf änderten sie ihren Namen in Four Tops, um Verwechslungen mit den Ames Brothers zu vermeiden. Sie begleiteten Billy Eckstine bei seinen Tourneen und traten unter anderem im Vorprogramm von Count Basie und Brook Benton auf.

Un enorme éxito cosechó este grupo a mediados de los 60s con canciones inolvidables como: 'Reach Out I'll Be There', 'Bernadette' y otas más

You're sweet as a honey bee
           Dm7
But like a honey bee stings
                F                G
You've gone and left my heart in pain
        C
All you left, is our favorite song
    Dm7              F         G
The one we danced to all night long
           C
It used to bring sweet memories
     Dm7              F       G
Of a tender love that used to be

             C    F   G
Now it's the same old song

Since you been gone
         C    F   G
It's the same old song

A sentimental fool am I

to hear a old love song

And wanna cry
        C   
But the melody keeps haunting me
  Dm7               F               G
Reminding me how in love we used to be
     C   
Keep hearing the part that used to touch my heart
         Dm7
Saying together forever
F           G
Breaking up never

             C    F   G
Now it's the same old song
           Dm
But with a different meaning

Precious memories keep a lingering on
Dm7                   F        G
Every time I hear our favorite song
           C
Now you're gone

Left this emptiness
  Dm7
I only reminisce
    F            G
The happiness we spent
           C
We used to dance on the music (we used to dance to the music)
       Dm7
Make romance through the music (make romance through the music)

             C    F   G
Now it's the same old song

Bernadette, people are searchin' for
Bb                    A
the kind of love that we possess.
D           C
Some go on, searchin' their whole life through,

CHORUS:
F          Dm                  Gm            C
And when I speak of you, I see envy in other men's eyes.
F       Dm                   Gm            C
And I'm well aware of what's on their minds.
Gm              F                  C
They pretend to be my friend, when all the time
Gm        F               C
they long to persuade you from my side.
       Gm                     Am

for just one moment we have known.

That's why I treasure you, and place you high above..
Gm           F                 C
for the only joy in life is to be loved.
Gm     Am           C                   D
So whatever you do, Bernadette, keep on loving me,
C                   Bb           A
Bernadette, keep on needing me...Bernadette!

OUTRO:
D                      C                       Bb
Bernadette, you're the soul of me..more than a dream,
       A          C
you're clear to me.
    D                    C                  Bb

     A
ever meant to be...(Fade.)

        F               
I do my best to meet her demands
Am

         Dm

    Am                      A#
but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A#

Dm              Gm       C
And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am
every perfect summer's eating me alive
            A#    Dm
unitl youre gone
Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability

[Outro]
             Dm           F           A#
They're gonna watch me disappear into the sun
                 Dm        F           A#
You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun

Liability

A                                     E 
Roll into your town and I'm walking around

                                                     D
And you follow me around, and you're asking for the time

Your asking what I found 
                         A
think I'm gonna rob you blind

maybe it's the tattoo on my arm
        E
that I drew while I was bored waiting tables in new york
Fm                                            D
 a  heart and two flowers intertwined with a vine

I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long

Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A

Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine

Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)

And not the drag, spectacular view, what you can lose

Windows will close in the crash years

Crash Years

Intro  D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
        Bm7                 F#              G                    A
And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
        Bm7 A   G                              Gm
Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away


Interlude   D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 2
          D                           Bm7
Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase
     G               A
Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith


Chorus
          D                        D7
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
           Bm7                   F#                G                    A
When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
         Bm7 A   G                               Gm
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith
 
          D                        D7
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
           Bm7                   F#                G                    A
When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
         Bm7 A    Bm7 A       Bm7 A       G                      G   
Don't be fallin', fallin' in, fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

Situations

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
