# not the original tune but it sounds fine

Chorus:             
             Em
I need your love
             C
I need your time
                    G
When everything's wrong
              D
You make it right
           Em
I feel so high
         C
I come alive
              G              D
I need to be free with you tonight
             Em
I need your love
             Em
I need your love
 

Em                        C
I take a deep breath every time I pass your door
G                                D
I know you're there but I can't see you anymore
Em                      C
And that's the reason you're in the dark
G                           D
I've been a stranger ever since we fell apart
Em               C
And I feel so helpless here
G                   D          
Watch my eyes are filled with fear
Em                   C
Tell me do you feel the same
G               D 
Hold me in your arms again

I Need Your Love

E             B              G#m            F#
You took my heart and you held it in your mouth
E             B           G#m             F#
And, with a word all my love came rushing out
E            B             G#m                F#
And, every whisper, it's the worst, emptied out by a single word
E          B         G#m    F#
There is a hollow in me now

E                  B
So I put my faith in something unknown
G#m              F#
I'm living on such sweet nothing
E                      B
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
G#m             F#
I'm living on such sweet nothing
E
And it's hard to learn
B
And it's hard to love
G#m                   F#
When you're giving me such sweet nothing
E               B
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
G#m              F#
You're giving me such sweet nothing

E   B   G#m   F#

E       B        G#m          F#
It isn't easy for me to let it go
  E
Cause
         B       G#m         F#
I've swallowed every single word
 E
And
        B            G#m  
Every whisper, every sigh
       F#                    E
Eats away at this heart of mine
                 B           G#m      F#
And there is a hollow in me now

E                  B
So I put my faith in something unknown
G#m              F#
I'm living on such sweet nothing
E                      B
But I'm trying to hope with nothing to hold
G#m             F#
I'm living on such sweet nothing
E
And it's hard to learn
B
And it's hard to love
G#m                   F#
When you're giving me such sweet nothing
E               B
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
G#m              F#
You're giving me such sweet nothing

E   B   G#m   F#

E               B 
And it's not enough
     G#m             F#
To tell me that you care
E              B        G#m           F#
When, we both know the words are empty air
               E   B   G#m   F#  
You give me nothi-------------ng
E   B   G#m   F#

I'm Not Alone

Ready For The Weekend

C     Em     D
When I met you in the summer
                Am     Bm     C
To my heartbeat sound

We fell in love

We could be together baby

As long as skies are blue

You act so innocent now

But you lied so soon
When I met you in the summer

This Heart Attack

A                                     E 
Roll into your town and I'm walking around
                                                Fm                        
Got some extra time think I'll throw some money down
                                                     D
And you follow me around, and you're asking for the time

Your asking what I found 
                         A
think I'm gonna rob you blind

maybe it's the tattoo on my arm
        E
that I drew while I was bored waiting tables in new york
Fm                                            D
 a  heart and two flowers intertwined with a vine

Why Cry

[Verse 1]
 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D
You say you like sleeping with the air off
Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change


[Chorus]
N.C.                     D
Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
We don't even know why, no no
Bm                          A
We don't even know why, no no no


[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
No no no no

We like it in the daytime

We like it in the end of time
N.C.
No no no no

We like it in the end of time


[Verse 2]
G                        D
Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change

[Bridge]
G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine
G                         D
Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)
Bm                            A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright

(Think that we'd be alright)

G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine

(Oh)Tell me how we're not alike

But we work so well and we don't even know why

('Cause we work so well and we don't even know why, why)

Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus

And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day

Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away

Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase

Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day

As She's Walking Away

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
