[Verse 1]

                    Am                          F
Oh, there she goes again, every morning it's the same,
             C                    G
You walk on by my house, I wanna call out your name.
Am                      F                             C
I wanna tell you how beautiful you are from where I'm standing,
             G
You got me thinking what we could be 'cause


[Pre-Chorus]

Am
I keep craving, craving you,
F
You don't know it but it's true,
C                         G
I can't get my mouth to say the words they wanna say to you.
Am                   F
This is typical of love,
                           C                                      G                             
Can't wait anymore, I won't wait I need to tell ya how I feel when I see us together forever.


[Chorus]
        C                 G
In my dreams, you're with me,
         Am                        G
We'll be everything I want us to be.
         C               G
And from there, who knows,
        Am                            G
Maybe this will be the night that we kiss,
For the first time.
        F               G
Or is that just me and my imagination?


[Verse 2]

Am                                   F                            
We walked, we laughed, we spent our time, walking by the ocean side,
C                        G
My hands are gently intertwined, a feeling I just can't describe.
Am                        F                              C
All this time we spent alone, thinking we could not belong,
                         G                   Am
To something so damn beautiful, so damn beautiful.


[Pre-Chorus]

Am                      F
I keep craving, craving you,
                       C
Don't know it but it's true,
                         G                              Am
I can't get my mouth to say the words they wanna say to you.
                   F
This is typical of love,
                           C                                                G                             
Can't wait anymore, I won't wait I need to tell ya how I feel when I see us together forever.


[Chorus]

We'll be everything I want us to be.
         C               G
And from there, who knows,
        F                             G
Maybe this will be the night that we kiss,
For the first time.

Or is that just me and my imagination?


[Pre-Chorus] 

Am                      F
I keep craving, craving you,
                       C
Don't know it but it's true,
                         G                               C
I can't get my mouth to say the words they wanna say to you.

Imagination

Em                  D
Takin' it slow
                       A
Isn't easy if as far as you go
                             Em                     D
Is only half as far as you and I both know
A
Yeah

          Em                      D
Comin' out from above
A little something
             A
And it's only because
                              Em            D
I don't ever wanna see you in love
                   A
But I know
 
That you've been
Em
Coming off strong lately
                 D
And I can feel it that
                 A
You been thinking that maybe
You got a, another shot at me
Em           
Thinking possibly
D                         A
Somehow, but not now

And it's been spinning around like a hurricane
And the sound of the thunder
That's beatin' my head to the ground
But I
I know

                       Em
That I can't go back,
     D
To this,
    A
To her,
                                Em
To what we used to have
     D                   A
It's black and burnt,
                         Em
My God this is so sad
      D                      A
It'll only make things worse,
                  Em
If we bring it back
D          A
Whoa, yeah, yeah, oh

Bring It Back

Intro: Am, G, C, F 

 Am             G              C     F
 I thought that I've been hurt before
     Am                 G             C    F  
 But no one's ever left me quite this sore
 Am             G             C     F
 Your words cut deeper than a knife
       Am              G                  F
 Now I need someone to breathe me back to life
 Am                     G
 Got a feeling that I'm going under
 C                    F
 But I know that I'll make it out alive
 Am                G 
 If I quit calling you my lover
 C      F
 Move on
              Am                         G
 You watch me bleed until I can't breathe
              C                    F
 I'm shaking, falling onto my knees
              Am               G
 And now that I'm without your kisses
 C               F
 I'll be needing stitches
     Am                   G
 I'm tripping over myself,
            C                       F
 I'm aching begging you to come help

 Just like a moth drawn to a flame
         Am             G                  C   F  
 Oh, you lured me in, I couldn't sense the pain
 Am          G                 C    F 
 Your bitter heart cold to the touch
               Am             G
 Now I'm gonna reap what I sow
                 C            F
 I'm left seeing red on my own

 Am                     G
 Got a feeling that I'm going under

  C                                G              Am
Wonder if those eyes are really shut

             F                       G                    C
And am I the one you're dreaming of



             F                        G
'Cause underneath the darkness

                 C                          G                     Am
There's a light that's trying so hard to be seen.

         F                                 G
And I know this 'cause I've noticed

    C           G                              Am
A little bit shining through the seams.



           C        Dm       Am
And if this is what it takes,

         G                     C        Dm          Am       G
Then let me be the one to bare the pain.

           C        Dm       Am
Ooh if this is what it takes

C                                 Dm                 C        F
I'll break down these walls that are in our way,

   G
If this is what it takes.



C                              G                       Am
You keep on telling me I'm wasting time

           F                      G                        C
But to call it wasting time oh that's a crime

C                                     G                            Am
And you think it's crazy what I'm trying to do

        F                 G             C
Well baby, I'm a fool for you.



            F                        G
'Cause underneath the darkness

                C                          G                     Am

A little bit shining through the seams, yeah



           C        Dm       Am
And if this is what it takes

          G                     C        Dm          Am       G
Then let me be the one to bare the pain

            C        Dm       Am
Ooh if this is what it takes

C                                 Dm                 C        F
I'll break down these walls that are in our way



                       F
'Cause if you don't understand yet

               G
Then I'll never let you forget

         Am                                                  C
That you don't have to do this on your own


                  F
I'll be your shoulder to lean on

                  G
I'll be your right when you feel wrong

      Am                                                         C
So come on, take my hand, we're moving on

Kid In Love

Intro: Am  C  F    
 
Verse:
Am            C               F    
She would not show that she was afraid
Am              C                         F    
But being and feeling alone was too much to face
Am                C                 F    
Though everyone said that she was so strong
Am                                     C          F    
What they didn't know was that she could barely carry on
 
Pre-Chorus:
                      Am   C  F    
But she knew that she would be okay
                          Am  C  F    
So she didn't let it get in her way
 
Chorus:
C            G                 Am         F    
Sometimes it all gets a little too much
                C          G                    Am    F    
But you gotta realize that soon the fog will clear up
                   C       G            Am        F    
And you don't have to be afraid because we're all the same
                  C            G                   Am      F    
And we know that sometimes it all gets a little too much
 
Verse::
Am                   C               F           C
She would always tell herself she could do this
Am                   C               F         C
She would use no help it would be just fine
Am                      C               F         C
But when it got hard she would lose her focus
Am         C                   F    
So take my hand and it will be alright
 
Pre-Chorus:
                        Am   C  F

So she didn't let it get in her way
 
Chorus:
C            G                    Am      F

             C             G                  Am     F    
But you gotta realize that soon the fog will clear up
                   C       G               Am        F    
And you don't have to be afraid because we're all the same
                 C            G                     Am      F    
And we know that sometimes it all gets a little too much

Em          G
  You've got a hold of me
Bm             A
  Don't even know your power
Em       G
  I stand a hundred feet
Bm                A
  But I fall when I'm around you


[Pre-Chorus]

Em       G
  Show me an open door
Bm                  A
  Then you go and slam it on me
Em      G
 I can't take anymore
Bm           A
 I'm saying baby


[Chorus]

             Em         G
Please have mercy on me
        Bm          A
Take it easy on my heart
                       Em             G
Even though you don't mean to hurt me
          Bm          A
You keep tearing me apart

Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart

[Verse 2]

Em      G
 I'd run through the night
Bm           A

 Heart old and testified
Bm            A  
 Tell me that I'm not crazy


[Pre-Chorus]

Em             G
 I'm not asking for a lot

 My pride is all I got
Bm           A
 I'm saying baby

I'm a puppet on your string
                         Em              G   
And even though you got good intentions
       Bm             A
I need you to set me free
                     Em     G     Bm      A
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
                     Em     G     Bm      A
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart

I would gladly do it twice

Como intro:
Desnudar el sin razón
que modelo nuestras vidas
Parece ser causa perdida.

Nadie apuesta detener
el motor que contamina
el aire que a diario respiras

Am
Y que respiraste ayer,
Como intro
y que mañana tal vez, no lo sé.
Por eso hoy

Reflexionando en esto,

la madrugada pasó,

y dejó otro día para ser.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser

Culpable o inocente, malviviente o juez.
O quien con sólo su firma decreta la ley.
Pronucleares informistas modelan la situación.
Más tecnología, por más energía.
Fuga radiactiva de progreso.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser.

Derrame de combustible, exterminio forestal.
El motor contaminante no se detendrá.
Para ser hay otro día en el planeta inferior.
Como cualquier día, como todo día
Con o sin mi reflexión.

Beautiful Girls

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:

Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

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

no es solo un burro,

que es un ángel de fe,

tal vez

me sentirás tal vez

me sentirás

las aguas en tus ojos

vibran su dulce brillo

una piel y una flor

son tus pechos,

que no piensan menos mal,

oh por favor,

gira loca girasol . . .

déjame como estoy,

ya te amé y allí morí,

quédate quédate oh!

déjame explicarte,

solo extiéndete una vez más . . .

extiéndete una vez más . . .

eres mi esperanza,

solo una grieta en mi existir . . .

no somos solo cuerpos,

y como un fondo un cielo . . .

no es solo un burro,

que es un ángel de fe

tal vez me sentirás

tal vez me sentirás

Y el dolor suele ser un misterio

SOL# DOm
Salir, parece buena idea,

SOL# DOm
Escapar, esa no es la manera de seguir

SOL# DOm
No esperar que el tiempo arregle todo,

SI LA#
Cuestión de encontrar el modo de reír

DOm FA MIb LA# DOm
Y si no estas bien, no te desarmes

FA MIb LA# DOm
Ponte de pie y andar y andar

FA MIb LA# DOm
No los escuchés pueden marearte

FA MIb LA# DOm
Solo saben hablar, y hablar y hablar

PUENTE: DOm LA# DOm LA#


DOm LA# DOm LA# DOm
A donde vas? No entiendo, no

LA# DOm LA#
Por que estas mintiendo?

DOm FA MIb LA# DOm
Y si no estas bien, no te desarmes

FA MIb LA# DOm
Ponte de pie y andar y andar…

FA MIb LA# DOm
No los escuchés pueden marearte

FA MIb LA# DOm
Solo saben hablar, y hablar y hablar...


SOLO: DOm LA#

FINAL: DOm - FA - MIb - LA# - DOm - MIb - FA - LA#

Andar

C
Working the village shop
E
Putting a poster up
Am
Dreaming of anything
C              Am               Em               Dm
Dreaming of the time when you're free from all the trouble you're in

C
In the mud, on your knees
E
Trying hard not to please
Am
Anyone, all the time
C              Am
Being a rebel's fine
           Em            C
But you go all the way to being brutal

Chorus:
G
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
F
On the first bus out of town
On the first bus out of town

Let's see your kit for games
All the girls look the same
You are challenging style for running miles
You're running miles in some boy's jumper

Boo to the business world!
You know a girl who's tax free on her back and making
Plenty cash
While you are working for the joy of giving

Chorus:
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
And you hope that she will see
And you hope that she will see

You are in two minds
Tossing a coin to decide whether you should tell your mum
About a dose of thrush you got while licking railings

But you read in a book
That you got free from Boots
There are lotions, there are potions
You can take to hide your shame from all those prying eyes

Lazy Jane, all the time
Painting lines
You sleeping at bus stops
Wondering how you got your name
And what you're going to do about it.
