Bbm                                         F#
When we were young the future was so bright
                                  C#
The old neighborhood was so alive
                                       G#
And every kid on the whole damn street
                                    Bbm
Was gonna make it big in every beat
                                        F#
Now the neighborhood's cracked and torn
                                               C#
The kids are grown up but their lives are worn
                          G#
How can one little street swallow so many lives

[Chorus]

        Bbm
Chances thrown
          F#
Nothing's free
        C#
Longing for
        G# 
Used to be
           Bbm
Still it's hard
        F#
Hard to see
        C#
Fragile lives 
          G#
shattered dreams

[Verse 2]

Bbm                                     F#
Jenny had a chance, well she really did
                                                 C#
Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids
                                               G#          
Mark still lives at home cause he's got no job
                                             Bbm
He just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot
                      F#
Jay committed suicide
                      C#
Brandon OD'd and died
                           G#                    
What the hell is going on? The cruellest dream - reality

Hit That

Verse:1

lalalalalalalalalala.. :P
A               F       C          G 
I wrote her off for the tenth time today
A                 F   C              G 
And practiced all the things I would say
A            F    C         G 
But she came over I lost my nerve
A               F   C        G 
I took her back and made her dessert
G  A  F   C              G 
Oh I know I'm being used
A               F       C              G 
That's okay man cause I like the abuse
A    F           C              G 
Oh I know she's playing with me
A           F              C              G 
That's okay cause I've got no self esteem

Verse:2<-- the same chords has Verse:1
We make plans to go out at night
I wait till 2 then I turn out the light
This rejection's got me so low
If she keeps it up I just might tell her so

D          Bb      F             C         D 
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
       Bb             F              C      
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
D          Bb      F            C        D 
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
       Bb              F          C 
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
D      Bb    F              C       D 
Well I guess I should stick up for myself
      Bb                F           C    D 
But I really think it's better this way
             Bb    
The more you suffer
C           G                F 
The more it shows you really care
         G   C /G  G   C /G
Right? Yeah-eh-eh

Vers:3
Now I'll relate this little bit
That happens more than I'd like to admit
Late at night she knocks on my door
She's drunk again and looking to score
Oh I know I should say no but
It's kind of hard when she's ready to go
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
I'm just a sucker with no self esteem

Refrain again:
When she's saying, oh, that she wants only me
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
When she's saying, oh, that I'm like a disease
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Well I guess I should stick up for myself
But I really think it's better this way
The more you suffer
The more it shows you really care
Right? Yeah-eh-eh

My Girlfriend, my dumb donut
C            C             G    F
Went out to a party just the other night
    C          C     G             F
But three hours later, seven shots of jager
C             C           G      F
She was in the bedroom with another guy.


# PRE-CHORUS: NO PALM MUTE

About her feet all up in the air.

Think they're gonna help me open up my eyes

But the play-by-play
G               F 
Makes me want to lose it

Every time you do it man it turns the knife.

Now lying in bed, wallowing in sorrow

Missing the tomorrow that we could have had
C                 C    G       F
running through my head, over and over

Things I never told her now just make me sad.


# VERSE 2: Not Palm Muted

And it drives me insane
G               F
Sitting with the vision
C              C             G    F
Stuck with that image burned into my brain
      C      C
And I feel so dumb
     G           F
That I could ever trust her
      C           C
While someone else f***ed her

Then walked away.

       I had a dream, we were back to seventeen
       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us

             F                 C                 G
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
             F                C               G         E7   Am
Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?

Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning

Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me

King Creole

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.

Arrows Of Eros

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
