I'm going back to 505 
          Em
If it's a 7 hours flight
     Dm 
Or a 45 minute drive
                                  Dm
In my imagination you're waiting lying on your side
          Em            
With your hands between your thighs


Am                           Cm
Stop and wait a sec when you look at me like that
           Am                       Cm
My darling what did you expect? I probably still adore you
          Am                         Cm
With your hands around my neck Or I did last time I checked

Am Cm

I'm not shy of a spark The knife twists at the thought that I should fall short of the mark
   Cm                              Am
Frightened by the bite no it's no harsher than the bark
   Cm                          Am                      Cm
A middle of adventure, such a perfect place to start



           Am                   Cm
I'm going back to 505 If it's a 7 hour flight

With your hands between your thighs

But I crumble completely when you cry
    Cm                                 Am
It seems like once again you've had to greet me with goodbye
     Cm                        Am          
I'm always just about to go and spoil the surprise
         Cm                           Am   Cm
Take my hands off of your eyes too soon

Am                            Dm
This house is a circus, berserk as fuck

We tend to see that as a perk though. Look

What it's done to your friends their memories are pretend

And the last thing that they want is for the feeling to end

This house is a circus, berserk as fuck

We tend to see that as a perk though. Look

What it's done to your friends their memories are pretend

And the last thing that they want is for the feeling to end
There's a,


Room full of trouble and there's lovers to be had

Those ones who make sinners out of such lovely lads

Scaling the corridors for maidens in the maze

And the anomaly is slipping to familiar ways


And we're forever unfulfilled

Can't think why

Like a search for murder clues

In dead man's eyes

Forever unfulfilled

And can't think why

Like a search for murder clues

In dead man's eyes


The more you open your mouth

The more you're forcing performance

And all the attention is leading me to feel important (completely obnoxious)

Now that we're here, we may as well go too far


Wriggling around and it's so that you won't forget

There's certainly some venom in the looks that you collect

Aimlessly gazing at the faces in the queue

Struggling with the notion that it's life not film


This house is a circus, berserk as fuck

We tend to see that as a perk though. Look

What it's done to your friends their memories are pretend

And the last thing that they want is for the feeling to end

This house is a circus, berserk as fuck

We tend to see that as a perk though. Look

What it's done to your friends their memories are pretend

And the last thing that they want is for the feeling to end

This House Is A Circus

     C                  E7                   Am
In a foreign place, the saving grace was the feeling,
     C                          F
That it was a heart that he was stealing,
          Dm                       C
Oh he was ready to impress and the fierce excitement,
    E7                         Am
The eyes are bright he couldnt wait to get away,
   C                           F
I bet the juliet was just the icing on the cake,
   Em           Dm
Make no mistake no,

==Chorus 1==

 F                               Fm                       Em
And even if somehow we could have shown you the place you wanted,
         A7                                    Dm             Fm
Well I'm sure you could have made it that bit better on your own,

==Verse 2==

      C              E7                        Am
And I bet she told a million people that she'd stay in touch,
      C                           F
Well all the little promises they dont mean much,
             Dm
When theres memories to be made,
      C                   E7                 Am
And I hope you're holding hands by new years eve,
      C                      F
They made it far too easy to believe,
      Em                           Dm
That true romance cant be achieved these days,

==Chorus 2==

 F                           Fm                         Em
And even if somehow could have shown you the place you wanted,

Favourite Worst Nightmare 

  A                     C#m           F#m
I wish you would have smiled in the bakery
                     D
or sat on a tatty settee
          F
at some mutual friend's gathering
         A                 C#m
and the more you keep on looking
                F#m
the more it's hard to take
                 D
love, we're in stale mate
F                                    A
to never meet is surely where we're bound
                       D
there's one in every town
                         F
just there to grind you down
   A                  C#m                  F#m
I wish I would have seen you in the post office
                           D
well maybe I did and I missed it
F
too busy with a mind on clever rhymes
A             C#m                   F#m
why not the rounders pitch or the canteen
                                      D
you're slacking love, where have you been?
F                                 A
Just had to go and wait until tonight
A                 D
so give me the invite
                  F
don't worry it's alright
    A                C#m                F#m
I wish I would have seen you down in the arcade
                D               F
sipping on a lemonade in the paper cup and chewing on the straw
 A                       C#m             F#m
and I wish I would have seen you in the bakery
                                 D          F#m                A
but if I'd seen you in the bakery you probably wouldn't have seen me

Bakery

[Verse 1]

      Em                       B7
The smiles as she walked in the room
      Dm                          Am
have all turned into frowns am I too quick to assume
         Em                    B7
that the love is no longer in bloom
       Dm                          Am
The tantrums and the tears play a very different tunes to what they
 Em                B7
   did before Their heads red raw
         Dm                             Am
And the ending doesn't sound like the happiest around When you
 Em               B7                      Dm
sobbed before it felt much more like the product of the squabble
 Am
Now there's reason for it to be something more


[Chorus]

  Am
And there would be
                                       G
Oh its uncertain whether the curtain has shut for good She
                                                           Am
said "see if it's still raining but I'm not dressed for it, and

if you loved me..."
                                         B7
And I interrupt to receive the scowl and stare

But still decided to stop her there


[Verse 2] (Turner sings as he plays the riff)

Would it be too outrageous to say
We're either shouting or we're shagging locked in tempestuous phase
At least that's how we felt yesterday
The eyes are getting heavier and whether you're sleep or ...

[Chorus]

     Am
... awake is a mistery
                            G
Would a kiss be too much to ask
                                                            Am
When you fit me as sunday's frozen pitch fits the thermos flask

It's a pity
                           B7
It just hit me we can't go back

To the chest touching on the back

E    C#m              G#m
Lady, where has your love gone?
       A                 A            E     E7
I was looking but can't find it anywhere
A             F#m                  G#m          C#
They always opt for when there's loads of love around
G#m                                      B                 E
But, when you're short of some, it's nowhere to be found

Repeat:
Well, I know your game, you told him yesterday
"No chance, you'll get nothin from me"?
But now she's there, you're there, everybody's there
He's in turmoil, as puzzled as can be
E       E7
Just like me

          A             G#
Let's go down, down, low down
          C#m               F#m
Where I know I should not go
         A                      G#
Oh and she thinks shes the one
                C#m  F#m
But she's just one in 24
               A    A        A
And just cos everybody's doin' it
              G#      G#    G#
Does that mean that I can, too?

Repeat:
Lady, where has you love gone?
It was the antiseptic to the sore
To hold you by the hand must be first be in the demand
How he longs for you to long for him
     E       E7
Once more, just once more

          A             G#
Let's go down, down, low down
          C#m               F#m
Where I know I should not go
         A                      G#
Oh and she thinks shes the one
                C#m  F#m
But she's just one in 24
               A    A        A
And just cos everybody's doin' it
              G#      G#    G#
Does that mean that I can, too?


C#m               G#     G#m  Gm  F#m
Her eyes went down and cut you up
                B
And there's nothing like a dirty look from

 C#m          G#m           G#m  Gm  F#m      B
The one you want, or the one you've lost

E     C#m       G#m                 A
An ache in your soul is everybody's goal
   F#m                 E       E7
To get what they can't have
            A          F#m              G#m
That's why your after her and thats why she's after him
    C#                     F#m      B      E
but saying it won't change a thing

            F#m        B              E
And don't realize that it won't change a thing
 F#m        B             E        
Realizing it won't change a thing.

Who The F*** Are Arctic Monkeys?

                Dmaj7   C#m
Up rolled the riot van
    Bm                        Dmaj7 C#m Bm
And sparked excitment in the boys
                          Dmaj7 C#m Bm
But the policemen look annoyed
                                     Dmaj7 C#m Bm
Perhaps these are ones they should avoid

 A
  They got a chase last night
C#m                          Bm        E
  from men with truncheon's dressed in hats
A
  They didn't do that much wrong,
C#m                              Bm
  still ran away though for the laugh,
                E
  just for the laugh

"Please just stop talking
Because they won't find us if you do
Oh those silly boys in blue
Well they won't catch me and you...

"Have you been drinking son, you don't look old enough to me...
"I'm sorry officer is there a certain age you're supposed to be...
 nobody told me..

Up rolled the riot van
And these lads just wind the coppers up
Ask why they don't catch proper crooks
Get their address and their name's took
But they couldn't care less

Solo:
  A     C#m   Bm   E     A     C#m    Bm    E


He got thrown in the riot van
And all the coppers kicked him in
And there was no way he could win
Just had to take it on the chin

  So who's that girl there?
Emaj7
  I wonder what went wrong
             D#m
So that she had to roam the streets
      Emaj7
She don't do major credit cards
    D#m
I doubt she does receipts

Just give him half a chance
             D#m
I bet he'll rob you if he can
   Emaj7
Can see it in his eyes, yeah
         D#m
That he's got a driving ban
                  C#m         C#m F# E D#m C#m D#m
Amongst some other offences

Emaj7                      D#m
  And I've seen him with girls of the night
   Emaj7                     D#m
And he told Roxanne to put on her red light
Emaj7                       D#m
  They're all infected but he'll be alright
           C#m        D#m           E  F#  (start strumming on this line)
Cause he's a scumbag, don't you know

Although you're trying not to listen
I bet your eyes are staring at the ground
She makes a subtle proposition
Sorry love I'll have to turn you down

G F# Bm 
And oh he must be up to something
Want half a chance to show he's more than likely

And look here comes a Ford Mondeo
Isn't he Mister Inconspicuous
And he don't have to say 'owt
She understands she's here to get picked up
And she's delighted when she sees him
Pulling in and giving her the eye
Because she must be fucking freezing
Scantily clad beneath the clear night sky
She don't stop in the winter, no and...

Now then Mardy Bum
                D#
I see your frown
                 D#                        Cm
And it's like looking down the barrel of a gun
               A#
And it goes off
                            D7
And out come all these words
                  D#                  D#
Oh there's a very pleasant side to you
  Cm
A side I much prefer

                  D#               F
Can't we just laugh and joke around
                 A#            F
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
             Gm
Yeah, to get things off the ground
               D#         F
And it was up, up and away
           A#                 F
But it's right hard to remember
               Gm                                     D#  F
That on a day like today when you're all argumentative

And you've got the face on

D7    D#    D#    Cm

A#                D7
Well now Mardy Bum

Oh I'm in trouble again, aren't I
                 A#
I thought as much
                           D7
Cause you turned over there
                D#              
Pulling that silent disappointment face
      Cm
The one that I can't bear

              D#                     F
Well can't just laugh and joke around

Remember cuddles in the kitchen

That on a day like today when you're all argumentative

And you've got the face on

D7                     D#
Oh I'm sorry I was late
                      D7
But I missed the train
                                D#
And then the traffic was a state
                     D7                        D#
And I can't be arsed to carry on in this debate
                                        D7
That reoccurs, oh when you say I don't care
                 D#             F
Of course I do, yeah I really do

A#   D7   D#   D#   Cm
A#   D7   D#   D#   Cm

D#                      F

Remember cuddles in the kitchen

Okay this is exactly how it's played in the song, but I like to think this version si more of the 'Sing-along-with-your-mates' version. So not technically correct, but it'll please the audience, as it has for me many times :) .

G
Well oh they might wear classic Reeboks

Or knackered Converse
                                C
Or tracky bottoms tucked in socks

But all of that's what the point is not
                                 Cm
The points thats there ain't no romance around there
G
And there's the truth that they can't see
                                          C
They'd probably like to throw a punch at me

And if you could only see them, then you would agree
                            Cm   
Agree that there ain't no romance around there

Chorus:
F                     G
You know, oh it's a funny thing you know
C
We'll tell 'em if you like
Cm
We'll tell 'em all tonight
G
They'll never listen
C
Beause their minds are made up
Cmaj7                C         Cm     
And course it's all okay to carry on that way

Verse:
G
And over there there's broken bones
                                              C
There's only music, so that there's new ringtones

And it don't take no Sherlock Holmes
                        Cm
To see it's a little different around here
G
Don't get me wrong though, there's boys in bands
                                                      C
And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands

And just cause he's had a coupla cans
                          Cm
He thinks it's alright to act like a dickhead

Chorus:
F                     G
You know, oh it's a funny thing you know
C
We'll tell 'em if you like
       Cm
We'll tell 'em all tonight
G
They'll never listen
C
Beause their minds are made up
Cmaj7                C         Cm     
And course it's all okay to carry on that way
F
But I said no!
G
Oh no!
      C                  Cm
Well you won't get me to go!
G                    C
Not anywhere, not anywhere.
Cmaj7        C
No, i won't go!
Cm
Oh no, no!

Interlude (For this bit I just sorta play out the notes of the verse instead of strumming)

G
Well over there there's friends of mine
                                                 C
What can I say, I've known 'em for a long long time

And they might overstep the line
                            Cm                 G
But i you just cannot get angry in the same way

No not in the same way
C
So not in the same way
      Cm
Oh no, oh no no

(Then strum the verse like made and have fun :) )

Sun Goes Down

Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not

A
Thought I saw you in the Battleship
D                 Bm
But it was only a look a like
A
She was nothing but a vision trick
D         Bm
Under the warning light

        F#m    A                       F#m
She was close, close enough to be your ghost
       A
But my chances turned to toast
       D              Bm                 A
When I asked her if I could call her your name

I thought I saw you in the Rusty Hook
Huddled up in wicker chair
I wandered up for a closer look
And kissed who ever was sitting there

She was close, and she held me very tightly
Till I asked awfully politely, please
Can I call you her name

      D                      Bm
And I elongated my lift home,
F#m                                   
Yeah I let him go the long way round
Bm
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
    E                      A
And kept my shortcuts to myself

(back to verse chords)
I thought I saw you in the Parrots Beak
Messing with the smoke alarm
It was too loud for me to hear her speak
And she had a broken arm

       F#m    A                            F#m
It was close, so close that the walls were wet
        A                    D
And she wrote it out in letraset
       Bm                C#m
No you can't call me her name

A                    C#m            A
Tell me where's your hiding place
                 C#m       
I'm worried I'll forget your face
F#m
And I've asked everyone
Bm                          E
I'm beginning to think I imagined you all along

D                   Bm
I elongated my lift home
F#m                                   D
Yeah I let him go the long way round
Bm
I smelt your scent on the seatbelt
Dm
And kept my shortcuts to myself

SOLO CHORDS
A D Bm A D Bm F#m Bm D E

(verse chords)
I saw your sister in the cornerstone
On the phone to the middle man
When I saw that she was on her own
I thought she might understand

She was close, well you couldn't get much closer
                                        D (one strum)
She said I'm really not supposed to but yes,

Secret Door

#Intro:
Am    F    Am    E
Am    G    C    Ab


 Am          F            Am          E
Outside the cafe by the cracker factory
            Am         G      C      Ab
You were practicing a magic trick
         Am          F            Am          E
And my thoughts got rude, as you talked and chewed
        Am           G        C     Ab
On the last of your pick and mix

                                 Am             F
Said you?re mistaken if you're thinking that I haven't been caught
Am           E
cold before
       Am              G          C     Ab
As you bit into your strawberry lace
                           Am             F         Am           E
And then a flip in your attention in the form of a gobstopper
                Am              G         C      Ab       
Is all you had left and it was going to waste



        F               Dm
And your past-times, consisted of the strange
     Am
And twisted and deranged
      Am                                      F
And I hate that little game you had called
        Dm
Crying lightning
                    Am                                            F
And how you like to aggravate the ice-cream man on rainy afternoons
    Dm
Uninviting
    Am
But not half as impossible as everyone assumes
       F       Dm
You are crying lightning



Am 
                      Am               F
The next time that I caught my own reflection
       Am              E
It was on it's way to meet you
Am             G        C         Ab
Thinking of excuses to postpone
                     Am                F
You never look like yourself from the side
          Am                E
But your profile could not hide
             Am             G         C           Ab
The fact you knew I was approaching your throne

            Am            F                   Am
With folded arms you occupied the bench like toothache
E                      Am                 G           C        Ab
Stood and puffed your chest out like you never lost a war
              Am              F           Am             E
And though I tried so not to suffer the indignity of a reaction
      Am                 G              C       Ab
There was no cracks to grasp or gaps to claw

        F               Dm
And your past-times, consisted of the strange
     Am
And twisted and deranged
      Am                                      F
And I hate that little game you had called
        Dm
Crying lightning
                    Am                                            F
And how you like to aggravate the icky man on rainy afternoons
    Dm
Uninviting
    Am
But not half as impossible as everyone assumes
       F       Dm
You are crying lightning

Am

             Am                  Dm
Oh you were reading a book about some idiot
     F                  E
And telling me about another

      Am          Dm
I was so severely underwhelmed
             F            E
I thought I might never recover

                Am
Straighten the rudder girl
     Dm
And sail me up stairs
    F
And go and find somebody
      E
Who cares

        Am                Dm
Well we might not be the perfect partners
       F               E
But tonight we make a pair

Am                   Am
Your past-times, consisted of the strange
      Am
And twisted and deranged         
       Am                                     F
And I hate that little game you had called


        Dm            Am
Crying lightning
        Am            F
Crying lightning
        Dm            Am
Crying lightning
        Am
Crying lightning


    F                Dm
Your past-times, consisted of the strange
     Am
And twisted and deranged
       Am                                     F
And I hate that little game you had called

She's Thunderstorms

D       G       D         G
Topless models, doing semaphore
D          G        D                G
Wave their flags as she walks by and get ignored.
D     G        D          G
Illuminations, on a rainy day
D        G         D         G
When she walks her footsteps sing
D               G
A reckless serenade


G               Bm                           F#m          G
      I've been trying to figure out exactly what it is I need
           G                      D
Call up to listen to the voice of reason
            E         A
And got the answering machine

     D      G
The type of kisses
D             G
Where teeth collide
D        G          D        G
When she laughs the Heavens hum
  D             G
A stun-gun lullaby

D               G 
Those twinkling vixens
D                       G
With the shining spiral eyes
D       G      D       G
Their hypnosis goes unnoticed
D                  G
When she's walking by

Bm                      E

How it's meant to be

I etched the face of a stopwatch

On the back of a raindrop
Ab                                A
And did a swap for the sand in an hourglass

I heard an unhappy ending it sort of sounds like you're leaving

You look like you've been for breakfast at the heartbreak hotel
                              A                  F#m      C#m
And sat in a back booth by the pamphlets and the literature on how to lose
     A            B             E           Ab 
Your waitress was miserable and so was your food

If you?re gonna try and walk on water make sure you wear your comfortable shoes

Go green when you answer

But the red on the rest of the questionnaire never changes

I heard the news that you're planning

G                                        Em
Do you still feel younger than you thought you would by now
   Am                                        D
Or darling have you started feeling old yet?
     G                                        Em
Don't worry I'm sure that you're still breaking hearts
                     Am                          D
With the efficiency that only youth can harness
               G                      Em
And do you still think love is a laserquest
      Am                               D
Or do you take it all more seriously?
               G                           Em
I've tried to ask you this in some daydreams that I've had
                       Am                             D
But you're always busy being make believe



     C                                      D
And do you look into the mirror to remind yourself you're there
            G                                      C
Or has somebody's goodnight kisses got that covered?
                                           D        C     G
When I'm not being honest I pretend that you were just some lover



G                                 Em
Now I can't think of her without thinking of you
Am                                 D
I doubt that comes as a surprise
     G                                    Em
And I can't think of anything to dream about
Am                                D
I can't find anywhere to hide



             C                            D
And when I'm hanging on by the rings around my eyes
             G                C
And I convince myself I need another
                                             D           C      G
For a minute it gets easier to pretend that you were just some lover



             C                  D
When I'm pipe and slippers and rocking chair
          G                  C
Singing dreadful songs about summer
                                                     D       C    Em
Will I've found a better method of pretending you were just some lover?
     C                                             D       C    G
Will I've found a better method of pretending you were just some lover?

Baby, I'm yours,

And I'll be yours until the stars fall from the sky,

Yours until the mountain crumbles to the sea,
In other words, until eternity.


Baby, I'm yours,
Till the stars fall from the sky,
Baby, I'm yours,
Till the rivers all run dry,
Baby, I'm yours,
Until the sun no longer shines,
Baby, I'm yours,
Till the poets run out of rhyme

Baby I'm Yours

Leave Before The Lights Come On

R U Mine?

Gm                             Eb     Cm
Have you got colour in your cheeks? 
Cm                                          Gm
Do you ever get the feeling that you can't shift the tide 
That sticks around like something's in your teeth 
          Eb             Cm
And some aces up your sleeve 
                              Gm
I had no idea that you're in deep 
I dreamt about you nearly every night this week 

           Eb               Cm
How many secrets can you keep?
            Gm 
Cause there's this tune I found that makes me think of you somehow 
                    
When I play it on repeat 
   Eb    Cm
Until I fall asleep 
                        D
Spilling drinks on my settee 

[Pre-Chorus] 
          Eb
( Do I wanna Know ) 
          Cm
If this feeling floats both ways 
          Gm
( I had to see you go ) 
Cause I've been hoping that you'd stay
          Eb 
( And now that we both know ) 
          Cm
That the nights were mainly made the same 
          Gm
And things that you can't say some other day 

[Chorus] 
                  Gm
Crawling back to you 
                     Eb       Cm
Ever thought of calling when you've had a few?
               Gm
Cause I always do
                              Eb       Cm
Well baby I'm too busy being yours to fall for somebody new
                     Gm
Now I've thought it through


                  Gm
Crawling back to you 


So have you got the goods? 
Been wondering if you're heart's still open 
And if so I wanna know what time it shuts 
Simmer down, pucker up 
And I'm sorry to interrupt 
It's just I'm constantly on the cusp 
Of trying to kiss you 
I don't know if you feel the same as I do 
We could be together if you wanted to 

[Pre-Chorus] 
With this feeling first on the plate 
Cause I've been hoping that you'd state 
That the nights were never engraved 
For saying things that you can't say some other day 

[Chorus] 
Crawling back to you 
And I thought I'd crawl in here, give it a few 
As I always do 
Waking up to 
Was it me and yours to fall first from loving you? 
And I tell it true 
Crawling back to you

Do I Wanna Know?

Em
What's been happening in your world?

What have you been up to?

Am
I heard that you fell in love, or near enough
                        B
I gotta tell you the truth

C
I wanna grab both your shoulders and shake, baby

C
If that watch don't continue to swing
       Em               G
Or the fat lady fancies having a sing
C                                                 B
I'll be here waiting ever so patiently for you to
    A    G   F#m    Em
Snap    out   of   it

Em
Forever isn't for everyone

Is forever for you?
Am
It sounds like settling down or giving up
                                    B
But it don't sound much like you, girl

C
I wanna grab both your shoulders and shake, baby

    A    G   F#m    Em
Snap    out   of   it

Under a spell you're hypnotized
Em
Darling how could you be so blind?

Snap Out Of It

Dm
I can't explain but I wanna try

There's this image of you and I
        Bb
And it goes dancing by
        Gm                    Dm
In the morning and the night time

Dm
There's all these secrets I can't keep

Like in my heart there's that hotel suite
        Bb
And you lived there so long
            Gm                    Dm
It's kind of strange now you're gone

##Chorus##
                  Bb
I'm not sure if I should
                   Gm
Show you what I've found
                Bb
Has it gone for good
                     Gm
Or is it coming back around?
                             Bb
Isn't it hard to make up your mind
            Gm
When you're losing
                 Dm
And your fuse is Fireside

##Verse 2##
Dm
There's all those places we used to go

And I suspect that you already know
         Bb 
But that place on memory lane
              Gm
You like still looks the same
                         Dm
But something about it's changed

##Chorus##
                  Bb
I'm not sure if I should
                   Gm
Show you what I've found
                Bb
Has it gone for good
                     Gm
Or is it coming back around?
                             Bb
Isn't it hard to make up your mind
            Gm
When you're losing
                 Dm
And your fuse is Fireside

##Bridge##
               Bb          Gm
And I thought I was yours, Forever
Bb                   Gm
Or maybe I was mistaken,
                     Bb
But I just can't manage to
                        Gm                            Dm
Make it through the day without thinking of you lately

##Chorus##
                  Bb
I'm not sure if I should
                   Gm
Show you what I've found
                Bb
Has it gone for good
                     Gm
Or is it coming back around?
                             Bb
Isn't it hard to make up your mind
            Gm
When you're losing
                 Dm
And your fuse is Fireside

   So you're on the prowl wondering whether she left already or not
D                                      G
Leather jacket, collar popped like Cantona
                         D       
Never knowing when to stop
G                   B
Sunglasses indoors, par for the course
C                        Am    
Lights in the floors and sweat on the walls
D            Cm                   G
Cages and poles

# Verse 2
G                            B                  C
Call off the search for your soul, or put it on hold again
                            Am      
She's having a sly indoor smoke
                  D                                  G
And she calls the folks who run this her oldest friends
                                              B   
Sipping a drink and laughing at imaginary jokes
           C                                        Am
As all the signals are sent, her eyes invite you to approach
                D                           Cm                            
And it seems as though those lumps in your throat
                       D                                                  G
That you just swallowed have got you going

She's a certified mind blower, knowing full well that I don't
                    D
May suggest there's somewhere from which you might know her
G
Just to get the ball to roll
G                                 B
Drunken monologues, confused because
C                                                   Am           D         
It's not like I'm falling in love I just want you to do me no good

F#m                            D               Bm    
I'm like a puppet on a string, Tracy Island, time-traveling diamond
   F#m                            D               Bm

   F#m                            D               Bm 
Years too late, she's a silver lining lone ranger riding
   F#m                            D               Bm 
Through an open space, in my mind when she's not right there beside me

   F#m                            D               Bm     
Wished away entire lifetimes, unfair we're not somewhere
   F#m                            D               Bm    
Misbehaving for days, great escape lost track of time and space
   F#m                            D               Bm    
She's a silver lining climbing on my desire

  F#m                        D                           Bm
I Go crazy 'cause here isn't where I wanna be
        F#m                     D                           Bm
And satisfaction feels like a distant memory
        F#m                   D        Bm                   F#m        D  Bm  
And I can't help myself, all I wanna hear her say is "Are you mine? "
            F#m                D             Bm
Are you mine?            
            F#m                D             Bm
Are you mine?
            F#m                D             Bm
Are you mine?    (Oh Are...)

And the thrill of the chase moves in mysterious ways
        A
So in case I'm mistaken,
    Bm                             D                 C#              Bm 
I just wanna hear you say you got me baby
    Am                F#m
Are you mine?


Verse

She's a silver lining lone ranger riding through an open space
In my mind when she's not right there beside me
   F#m                D                      Bm
And I Go crazy cause here isn't where I wanna be


Chorus

     F#m                        D                           Bm
I Go crazy 'cause here isn't where I wanna be
        F#m                     D                           Bm
And satisfaction feels like a distant memory
        F#m                 
And I can't help myself,
    D             Bm               F#m      D    Bm
All I wanna hear her say is "Are you mine? "
 F#m                D             Bm
Well, are you mine? (Are you mine tomorrow?)
 F#m                D             Bm
Are you mine? (Or just mine tonight?)
 F#m                D             Bm
Are you mine? (Are you mine tomorrow, or just mine tonight?)

Mad Sounds

D     Bm       Em        Gbm             
The mirror's image tells me it's home time 
          D          Bm               Em    
But I'm not finished   'cause you're not by my side
       D                          Bm       Em             Gbm             
And as I arrived I thought I saw you leaving, carrying your shoes

Decided that once again I was just dreaming  of bumping into you

Pre-Chorus:

    Now it's three in the morning 
        Em                    Gbm 
And I'm trying to change your mind

Chorus:
    D                                   Bm       Em

    D                                   Bm       Em  
High,  why'd you only call me when you're high?

:
       D       Bm      Em                       
Somewhere darker, talking the same xxxxe
       D         Bm            Em                       
I need a partner,   well  are you out tonight?

It's harder and harder to get you to listen, more I get through the gears
          D              Bm            Em          Gbm        
Incapable of making alright decisions and having bad ideas

High,  why'd you only call me when you're high?



And I can't see you here, wondering where I might
It sorta feels like I'm running out of time
I haven't found what I was hoping to find

You said you gotta be up in the morning, gonna have an early night
And you're starting to bore me, baby, why'd you only call me when you're high?

Why'd you only ever phone me when you're high?
Why'd you only ever phone me when you're high?
Why'd you only ever phone me when you're high?
Why'd you only ever phone me when yo

Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High

[Intro]
A/C, A, F#m, A, F#, F  X4

[Verse 1]
A                        F#     F
There's always somebody taller with more of a wit
A                        F#    F
And he's equipped to enthrall her and her friends think hes fit
A                                      F#    F
And you just can't measure up though, you don't have a prayer
A                             F#    F                  
Wishing that you'd made the most of her when she was there

[Pre Chorus]
E                            F#
They've got engaged there's no intention of a wedding
D                      F
He's pinched ya bird and he'd probably kick your head in

[Chorus]
A                 D
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts
A                      D 
Oh, youre better off without her anyway
A                    D
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
A              D
Yeah, but I know you were though

[Verse 2]
A                                F#   F
Now you don't know what she's up to you can only assume
A                                  F#    F
If she's not in the front of the shops then theyve gone to his room
A                               F#   F
Bet she's gone 'round in her school stuff, bet thats what he likes
A                              F#      F
I know you thought she were different and you thought she were nice

[Pre Chorus}
E                                         F#m
But shes not nice, shes pretty fucking far from nice
D                                   F
Shes looking at you funny rarely looking at you twice

[Chorus]
A                 D
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts 
A                        D
Oh, youre better off without her anyway
A                    D
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
A                   D
Yeah, but its so clear you were though

[Bridge]
A, F#m, A, F#m, F   X6

[Verse 3]
A                                   F#    F
Have you heard what she has been doing? Never did it for me
A                          F#   F
He picks her up at the school gate at twenty past three
A                                  F#   F
Shes been with all of the boys but, never went very far
A                             F#   F
And she wagged English and science just to go in his car

[Pre Chorus]
E                           F#m
They've got engaged theres no intention of a wedding
D                      F
Hes pinched me bird and he'd probably kick my head in
E                      F#m
Oh now the girls have grown
              D                          F                  F
Yeah but Im sure that they still carry on in similar ways

[Chorus]
A                 D
Bigger boys and stolen sweethearts 
A                     D
Oh, Im better off without her anyway
A                  D
I said you wasn't sad to see her go
A              D
Yeah, but Im only pretending, you know
A            D                 A
Yeah, Im only pretending, you know
        D                   A
I was only pretending, you know
        D                   A
I was only pretending, you know

Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?

G
Get on your dancing shoes
                         C   Em
There's one thing on your mind
G
Hoping they're looking for you
                   C         Em 
Sure you'll be rummaging' through

G
And the shit, shock, horror
                         C   Em
You've seen your future bride
G
Oh, but it's oh so absurd
           C
For you to say the first word
            Em
So you're waiting and waiting


[Chorus]

G F C B G
                            G F C B G
The only reason that you came
                        G F C B G
So what you scared for?
                           G F C B G
don't you always do the same

It's what you there for, don't you know

G
...the lights are flashing
                 C  Em
Down in here tonight
G
And some might exchange a glance
             C            Em
But keep pretending to dance

(same chords 'till the end)


Don't act like it's not happening
As if it's impolite
To go and mention your name
Instead you'll just do the same
As they all do, and hope for the best...
  
                          G F C B G
The only reason that you came

So what you scared for?
                               G F C B G
Well don't you always do the same

It's what you're there for but no
 

Get on your dancing shoes
You sexy little swine
Hoping they're looking for you
Sure you'll be rummaging through

Oh and the shit, shock, horror
You've seen your future bride
Oh, but it's oh so absurd
For you to say the first word
So you're waiting and waiting

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

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.

No no, no no no, Bowery, no no, no no no, whiskey neat

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
