G             D
Oh dear out here,
G7                 C 
Everybody stumbles on fear.
Cm                 G  
Who cares if we?re scared?
D                     B7 
Everyone is on their own.

Em                    C
It?s only you that my heart desires.
D                   G
Only you alone can know my pain.
Em                 C
All alone you were sitting there,
D                      B7
Folding pages for your paper chain.

C                                     C#dim
Now you can cut me free (now you can cut me free),
C                                  C#dim
So when it all unfolds (so when it all unfolds),
C                                  C#dim
We?ll be holding hands and go on,

Together you and I forever.

G             D
Heart breaks, mistakes,
G7                   C
Catching up to me in old ways.
Cm              G
I know of hard days.
D                       B7
Had my share of lonely nights.

Em                   C
Its only you that my heart desires.
D                  G
Only you alone can break my fall.
Em                        C
I pace the floor and I wish for more,
D                                  B7
While you were dreaming with your paper dolls.

C                                      C#dim
Now you can cut me free (now you can cut me free),

Forever say goodbye (forever say goodbye),
C                                  C#dim
Or well be holding hands and go on,

Give Up The Ghost

intro:
 |G  Em|G  Em|

1st:
     G                 Em 
I've heard that there's a secret chord
     G                   Em
That David played and it pleased the Lord
    C                C             G        G
But you don't really care for music do you?

   G                   C           D
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
    Em              C
The minor fall, the major lifts
    D                 Am        Em
And the baffled King composing Hallelujah

     G   C	C   G
Hallelujah, hallelujah
     G    C      C-G-D-G
Hallelujah, hallelujah

2nd:
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you

She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

3rd:
Darling I've been here before
I've seen this room, I've walked these floors
You know I used to live alone before I knew you

I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, Oh yea...

5th:
There was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?

And remember when I moved in you
The Holy Dark was moving too
And every breath you drew was hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

6th:
So maybe there's a God above
But all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you

It's not a cry you can hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
  
G   C 	    C   G
Hallelujah, hallelujah
     G    C      C-G-D-G
Hallelujah, hallelujah 

G   C	           C   G
Hallelujah, hallelujah
     G    C      C-G-D-G
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah

have you ever stared into a starry sky?

G                                     C
have you ever been out walking in the snow
Em                               C
tried to get back where you were before
G          C          Em               C    C
you always end up not knowing where to go
G                       D              G
if you've ever been out walking in the snow

My Song

             A
All of these lines across my face
             E
Tell you the story of who I am
        F#
So many stories of where I've been
          D
And how I got to where I am
          A
But these stories
           E
don't mean anything

When you've got no one to tell them to

It's true....I was made for you

          A <---(begin strumming softly)
I climbed across the mountain tops
         E  <-- (start rocking out like your hair is on fire)
Swam all across the ocean blue
                  F#
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
           D
But baby I broke them all for you
        A           E
Because even when I was flat broke
    F#                  D
You made me feel like a million bucks
         A       E              A
Yeah you do, and I was made for you

            A <--(back to fingerpicking)
You see the smile that's on my mouth
                E
It's hiding the words that won't come out
              F#
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
                D
Well they don't know my head is a mess
   A  <--(strumming)   E
No they don't know who I really am
    F#                   D                      A
And they don't know what I've been through, but you do
    E              A
And I was made for you


             A  <---(hair is on fire again)
All of these lines across my face
             E
Tell you the story of who I am
        F#
So many stories of where I've been
          D
And how I got to where I am

But these stories

When you've got no one to tell them to

It's true....I was made for you

Story

I watch you grow away from me in photographs 
Memories like spies, the salt betrays my eyes again.
I started losing sleep and gaining weight
And wishing i was ten again so i could be your friend again.

Chorus:
These days we go to waste like wine,
That's turned to turpentine
'Cause its 6am and im all messed up.
I didn't mean to waste your time,
So i'll fall back in line
But im warning you we're growing up.

I heard you found some pretty words to say
You found your little game to play 
And theres no one allowed in here
Then just when we believed we could be great
Reality it permeates 
And conquers from within again

Chorus:
These days we go to waste like wine,
That's turned to turpentine
'Cause its 6am and im all messed up.
I didn't mean to waste your time,
So i'll fall back in line
But im warning you we're growing up.

Ohhh, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh
Lord i know we're ok
Ohhh, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh
Lord i know we're ok

Chorus:
These days we go to waste like wine,
That's turned to turpentine
'Cause its 6am and im all messed up.

But im warning you we're growing up.

Beginning To Feel The Years

The Firewatcher's Daughter

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        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,

Down By The River

Intro: D-A-Bm-Em-A  x4

         D                 A                          
I'll confess tonight your all thats on my mind
        Bm            A                   D
I know these roof top nights could last forever.
              A                            Bm
we watched the seasons change, we saw the distance pull us away,
           A
from all we shared together.

D                       A
Right now is all we have you better make this count
Bm                       A
these are the moments i wish i could forget you.

D                            A                                          Bm
I think back to the nights I looked into your bright green eyes and you said,
    Em    A
lets run away.
D                             A                             Bm
its 9am the sun wont rise for 3 more hours pacific time you said
    Em    A
lets run away.

D                    A
I picked apart every word that you said
  Bm                              A
I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
D                         A
the way you are leaves me counting the days
        Bm                            A
till the next time this distance will be a memory


D                        A        
Right now is all we have you better make this count
Bm                     D

D                            A                                          Bm

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

when you think there's no reason to try
               D                           A

when you're filled with anxiety
             D                   A
and everyone's your enemy
A                                        E
when you wish you were someone else
                 D                        A

Overreacting

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
