Desperate Measures

F           C
An empty room,
          Dm
I'm empty too
        Bbsus2                 F
And everything reminds me of you
            C
So many things
                  Dm
I shouldn't have missed
               Bbsus2
The more that I push
                      F
And the more you resist
             C                Dm
It's easy to say it's for the best
             Bbsus2
When you want more
                          F
While you leave me with less

              C                Dm     Bbsus2    
I know you're fine, but what do I do?
F              C                Dm
I know you're fine, but what do I do?

Bbsus2      F
I'm awake, and trying
C                            Dm   C
While you're sleeping like a babe beside him
Bbsus2            F
I'm on the ledge while you're so
C        Dm                
God damn polite and composed
Bbsus2 F
And I know you see me,
C                    Dm     C
And you're making it look so easy
Bbsus2          F
What comes and goes,

I'd go without

Dm            C
I know you're fine but what if I

Well now there's him,
               Dm
And now there's me
                Bbsus2
The secrets you give
                      F
And the secrets you keep
            C
And nevertheless
               Dm
It's never you let
                Bbsus2
The more that I give
                     F
And the less that I get
                 C
Don't tell me to fight,
             Dm
To fight for you
           Bbsus2
After this long, I shouldn't have to

F             C                Dm     Bbsus2
I know you're fine, but what do I do?

D        G        A          Bm7
Testing, testing, I'm just suggesting,
D       G        A         Bm7
You and I might not be the best thing,
D     G       A      Bm7         D   G  A   Bm7
Exit, exit, somehow I guessed it right, right,
Bm7         D        G
But I still want ya, want ya,
A            Bm7        D       G
Don't mean to taunt ya, If you leave now,
A                  Bm7
I'll come back and haunt ya,
D        G       A         Bm7    D  G   A     Bm7
You'll remember, return to sender now,   now

[Bridge]
    Bm7            G                 D
Well I just wish we could go back one more time,
      A
And begin it,
Bm7            G              D
Back before I lost myself somewhere,
          A
Somewhere in it.

[Chorus]
          G         D
I've been stuck now so long,
   A            Bm7
We just got the start wrong,
G        D
One more last try,
 A           Bm7
I'ma get the ending right,
G       D         A            Bm7
You can stop this, and I must insist,
         G           D
That you haven't had enough,
    A           Bm7
You haven't had enough,
G         D
Stuck now so long,
   A            Bm7
We just got the start wrong,

No more last place,
A                   Bm7
You better get your story straight,
G         D         A           Bm7
You can't stop this, and I must insist,

You haven't had enough


Haven't Had Enough

F
Once upon a time
          A#
I used to romanticize
                     Dm
Used to be somebody, never mind
                          C     
I don't miss it that much now
             F
I think it's sinking in
                    A#
Days that I wonder where I've been
                    Dm
And picture perfect porcelain
                  C
But I won't lose a pound

       Dm                     A#
You say I would make a better liar
         F                        C
And never face the music when it's dire
      Dm                A# 
And I breathe disaster, ever after
      F                 C
Don't pull away from me now

          F
Don't you move
          A#                  
Can't you stay where you are, just for now
Dm
I could be your perfect disaster
C
You could be my ever after
    F           A#          
You could be my ever after, after all
Dm 
I could be your perfect disaster
C
You could be my ever after

F                                   A#
Apologies, I'm not myself but I can guarantee
                     Dm
That when I get back, you won't believe
                 C
That you know me well
           F
Don't want to think about it
                             A#
I'm fuckin' tired of getting sick about it
                           Dm
Now stand back up and be a man about it
                         C
And fight for something, fight for something, fight for something, oh

Dm                     A#
I would make a better liar
         F                        C
I never face the music when it's dire
      Dm                A#

Don't pull away from me now

Don't you move

I could be your perfect disaster

You could be my ever after

F  A#  Dm  C

A
Nobody told ya' this is gonna fold ya'
Gm
We go marching in like toy soldiers
A#
To have and hold ya over sold ya
A
They're marching like toy soldiers

        Dm             A#              F       C
Somehow don't you dare fail, fail me now, ever after
        Dm             A#              F       C
Somehow don't you dare fail, fail me now, ever after
        Dm
Somehow

Once upon a time
                     A#
This place was beautiful and mine
                    Dm
But now it's just a bottom line
C
Barely comes to mind
N.C.
Ever after what is mine

Dm                     A#
I'll be your disaster, ever after
   F         C
So fire away

Goodbye

Ever After

Verse 1:
D
You say, sometimes, it's like I hardly know you
Bm
And maybe there's somethings I never showed you
A                                                         G
Sometimes you're certain, but just can't get it working at all
D
You say to yourself somebody better
Bm
Will understand you more than I ever
A                                                          G
I'll shake his hand, and smile, and say I understand. Well I do

That don't mean I don't think about you

Prechorus:
D
I know we 
                            Bm
Said it's just as well that I won't keep, keep you for myself
     A                                             G
But, I don't want to see you happier with somebody else

Chorus:
                          D
Oh, why can't you just be lo-lo, lo lo-lo, lo lonely?
                         Bm
Why can't you just be lo-lo, lo lo-lo, lo lonely?
                        A
Why can't you just be lo-lo, lo lo-lo, lo lonely?
                        G
I know you need someone too
This just feels so soon

Verse 2:
D
I know some things should just stay broken
Bm
I'm well aware this should remain unspoken
A                                                      G
But I've been working on the things that I was learning all wrong, oh
D
I know sometimes I only twist ya
Bm
And maybe I'm too proud to say I missed ya
A                                                          G
But what if here and now, I tell you that I'm all figured out?
Or maybe I just like how that sounds

Prechorus:
D

Bridge:
Bm
And I know it seems beneath me
G
But sometimes it's not so easy

To wish you well and let you go

Bm
And I say it's just as well

Cross My Heart (acoustic)

D                     
In the house I grew up in
A                   
My room in the basement
D                 
The hours turning
G
To years we've spent
D                           A
Remember Chris in the back yard
              D
Laughing so damn hard
                    G
And no one knew why

All To Myself

G            D           C
When your tears are spent, on your last pretense
         G             D                C
and your tired eyes refuse to close and sleep in your defense
          G         D                C
when it's in your spine, like you've walked for miles
        G                D             C
and the only thing you want is just to be still for a while

G                D 
oh eh, oh eh, oh oh
Em              C
oh eh, oh eh, oh oh

        G                       D
if your heart wears thin i will hold you up 
     Em                     C
and i will hide you when it gets too much.
         G      D
i'll be right beside you.
          Em     C       
i'll be right beside you.

G                  D                 C                       G
when you're overwhelmed and you've lost your breath when the space between
    D                  C
the things you know is blurry nonetheless.
         G        D           C
when you try to speak but you make no sound 
        G                  D
and the words you want are out of reach 
            C
but they've never been so loud.

            G                       D
and if your heart wears thin i will hold you up
     Em                    C 
and i will hide you when it gets too much.
          G      D
i'll be right beside you.
         Em      C
i'll be right beside you.
       G   D             Em     C
I will stay, nobody will break you

Em G  C
trust in me, trust in me, don't pull away.
Em G       C
just trust in me trust in me
Em                  C                          Em                   D
i'm just trying to keep this together, because i could do worse and you
 
could do better

          G           D           C
When your tears are spent on your last pretense.
          G           D                 C
and your tired eyes refuse to close and sleep in you defense.

nobody will break you

Beside You

C                                    
I look around, round, round look around and look it over,
G                
I take it up, up take it out and take you nowhere,
Am                                                F
Trading in who I've been for shiny celebrity skin
F                     G
I like to push it and push it until my luck is over.
C       
It never stop stops, never stops well you better,
G
Think it over prima donna you don't want to sever,
Am                                                           F
All the work to impress, charming girls out of their dresses,
F                        G
And smiling pretty, well pretty will shallow you forever

C         G                           C
Step one, step two, step three repeat
C             G         F            C
I pray at the church of asses in the seats,
C                          F     G
And I disappear behind the beat, yeah

When the mirrors and the lights and the smoke clear 
G                      F                         C
I'd never guess how we ever could have got here.

So shake shake shake,

Cross My Heart

Em7                 Cadd9                    G
  This place is a hole, and I don't want to go.
   G                 D
I wish we could stay here forever alone.
Em7                    Cadd9                        G
  This time that we waste, but I still love your taste.
G                        D               Cadd9
Don't let him take my place, don't just sit there.

Em7                           Cadd9
  Sometimes I wish you would leave me.
Cadd9         G                            D
Well I'm not sick of you yet, is that as good as it gets,
      Em7     Cadd9              G
I'll just say it, or I could slip into you,
G       D
It's so easy to come back into you.

Em7, Cadd9, G, D

Em7               Cadd9                  G
  I stand for awhile, and waited for words,
G               D
Seen but not heard and struggled to try.
Em7                       Cadd9                    G
  My tongue's turning black, but I'll take you back.
G                 D                  Em7
You're still the best more or less, I guess.
 Cadd9
I guess.

               Em7        Cadd9
Don't you leave me, 
                 G                           D
Well I'm not sick of you yet, Is that as good as it gets,
     Em7     Cadd9               G      
I'll just say it, or I could slip into you,
       D                     Cadd9
It's so easy to come back into you.

       D                    Em7
It hurts me to say that it hurts me to stay.
           Cadd9       Em7       G
And it might be alright if you go.
G    D                   Em7
It hurts me to say that I want you to stay,
           Cadd9       Em7       G     Cadd9
But it might be alright if you go.

       Em7    Cadd9
So leave me, 
Cadd9         G                          D
Well I'm not sick of you yet, Is that as good as it gets,
          Em7   Cadd9                    G      
I'll just hide it, or I could slip into you,
       D        Em7          
It's so easy to come 
    Cadd9    G    D
back into you.

Em7, Cadd9, G, D

  D                    Em7
Sometimes I think that the bitter in you,
        Cadd9
And the quitter in me,
       G                     D
Is the bitter in you and the quitter in me.
    Em7                    Cadd9
The bitter in you, and the quitter in me,
       G                     D
Is the bitter in you and the quitter in me.
    Em7                    Cadd9         G     
The bitter in you, and the quitter in me,
         D          Cadd9      G 
Is beeeeeeeeeeeeetter than the both of us.

G                  D                             Cadd9

                 Em7          D            Cadd9

G                             D                         
And I know this isn't enough, I still don't measure up. 
Cadd9                          Em7      D              Cadd9

I would

G                      D                 
I thought I saw a sign somewhere between the lines but
Cadd9                Em7     D         Cadd9
maybe it's me, maybe I only see what I want. 
G                              D
I still have your letter, just got caught between someone 
Cadd9               Em7       D               Cadd9
I just invented, who I really am and who I've become

Em7      Cadd9                      G                 D

Good To You

Masterpiece Theatre

D                          Bm
From the scrapes and bruises 
                    G
To the familiar abuses  
                 D                 A                G
I'll kick and scream but it never changes anything 

D                       Bm
I could spill my guts out 
                               G
Wearing my best little girl pout 
                     D
And I almost missed it  
            A                             G
But nobody said that this was gonna be easy 

                 D
This is not the man I hoped to be, and
           Bm
I'm just trying to stop the bleeding 
      G        
I don't know how to word it 
         D
I just started to deserve it 
    D                           G
And all my, all my faces are alibis
             G
And me, I'm half the man I wanted to be 

D                               Bm
Most times it all comes out wrong
                                      G
I don't know the words but I'll hum along 
                     D                 A
There's nothing familiar here anymore 
                  G                   D
to anyone or anything left to feel alive 

D                              Bm
And I still taste that sickness 
                                        G
And it makes me crazy without it at best 
                     D                   A
But I'm in the same place I used to be 
                G
But I'm trying harder not to be 

                 D
This is not the man I hoped to be 
               Bm
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding 
   G
I don't know how to word it 
         D
I just started to deserve it 
   D                           G
And all my, all my faces are alibis 
             G
And me, I'm half the man I wanted to be 

Em                          G
So what am I? What am I? So what am I? 

      D                          Bm
And all my, all my faces are alibis 
                 D
This is not the man I hoped to be 
         Bm
And I'm just trying to stop the bleeding 
     G
I don't know how the words go 
          A
I just started not to say no 

D
Don't want it, Don't get it 
       D
I know you won't regret it
 Bm
Don't surface, Don't surface 
      Bm
And I feel so damned worthless 
          G              D                G      
Another day is gone and all my faces are alibis 
 D                  G
all my faces are alibis 

     G                          D  Bm  G
I'm half the man I wanted to be

[Intro]

D  E  F#m
D  E  F#m

[Verse 1]

D                    E                      F#m  
  Its the third of October, you should come over
F#m                             D
Best laid plans are not sober
                  E                          F#m
And maybe not the way we thought we planned
F#m
Both of us will take this hand
D                E                   F#m
For a couple of days then we'll disappear
F#m                                          D
We don't have to talk of where we go from here
    E            F#m       
Oh, my dearly departed,
  D  E            F#m
Mmm, my dearly departed

[Refrain]

    D
One final shoulder
D                       F#m
Here before they're none
E                    D
And then there were none

[Chorus]

     F#m              A         D
This last call could be all we can do for each other
F#m          A          D
Embrace for a dear old friend
D
Bring wine to bed
     F#m E A       D             F#m
We'll  toast what could have been
E            D
My dearly departed
  F#m E            D
To,   my dearly departed

[Verse 2]

D                   E
I don't know how to mend it
                  F#m
But this chapter ended
F#m                                    D
When all of my plans have depended on you
               E                        F#m
But at least tonight we'll still pretend
F#m                                        D
Hold each other close like its not the end
                       E                              F#m
And you can send me balloons, and we can laugh at the doom
F#m                                               D
We both thought of that doesn't it say something to
   E           F#m
Oh my dearly departed,
  D  E            F#m
Ohh, my dearly departed

[Refrain]

D
One final shoulder
D                   F#m
Here before we're none
  E                 D 
Until (there) are none

[Chorus]

     F#m              A         D
This last call could be all we can do for each other
F#m          A          D
Embrace for a dear old friend
D
Bring wine to bed
     F#m E A       D             F#m
We'll  toast what could have been
E            D
My dearly departed
  F#m E           D
To   my dearly departed

[Bridge]

      F#m              A
Every masterpiece I'd write again
       E
You'll always be my porcelain
  F#m                     A
I crossed my heart but I stuttered too
   E
So truth or dare was I good to you?
        F#m                A
Haven't had enough of you all to myself
      E
Still right beside you in sickness and health
   F#m         E              D
Forever after you will be my home
                       F#m  E   D
And there's no place like home

[Outro]

D                 E                               F#m
We never sent the cards, they're all still on the table
                                      D
Wanna throw them out but I'm just not able
E            F#m      D
My dearly departed
E               F#m      A      D
   My dearly departed
D           F#m         A          D
Toast what could what could have been
D           F#m         A          D
Toast what could what could have been
D                F#m
Dear old friend, 
     A          D
What could have been
D           F#m
Old friend
A            D
My dearly departed
D           F#m
Toast what could,
A            D
My dearly departed
D           F#m
Toast what could,
A            D
My dearly departed
D           F#m         A          D
Toast what could what could have been

de nada

[Parte Rap]
C
De nada dudes ya
Hey, honestamente te explicaré 
de natural modo cada fenómeno
El mar, el sol, el gas, 
oh, ese es Maui hablando de más
Anguilas que, yo las enterré, 
de la palmera los cocos creé
Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy
Am
  El tapiz que en mi piel se ve, 
F
  es el mapa de lo que gané
C
  Por donde fui provoqué mil sucesos
E7
  Ve al pequeñín mini Maui nomás zapateando,
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ¡Hey!

[Coro 3]
Am          F              C
  Yo sólo puedo decir, de nada (de nada)

Por el mundo especial que doy
                 F           C
No hay de que agradecer, de nada (de nada)
    E7                     Am
De nada hablaré, que ya me voy
          F            C
Te toca a ti decir de nada (de nada)
       E7             Am
Pues quiero esa barca ya

Muy lejos navegaré, de nada (de nada)

Pues Maui nada sabe de nadar

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

It Ain't Me

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
