Version Anglaise :   A former computer programmer and self-described geek, Coulton tends to write quirky, witty, fanciful lyrics about a variety of topics such as science fiction and technology: a man who thinks in simian terms, a mad scientist who falls in love with one of his captives, and the dangers of bacteria. He does not often write topical songs, but he did release a song titled &quot;W's Duty&quot;, which sampled President George W. Bush, in 2005 and another called &quot;Tom Cruise Crazy&quot; in 2006.

 You may recall we had some trouble last year
A                         D              E
 The robot council had us banished to an asteroid
A                           D       E
 That hasn't undermined our holiday cheer.

 On every corner there's a giant metal Santa Claus,

Intro:  E  Esus4 E  Esus4

E                    Esus4                E       Esus4
Welcome to my secret lair on Skullcrusher Mountain
  E                             Esus4
I hope that you've enjoyed your stay so far
          E7
I see you met my assistant Scarface
      A                     E
His appearance is quite disturbing
        A                       B7
but I assure you he's harmless enough
       A                    E
He's a sweetheart, calls me Master
             A      B7      A      B7    
And he has a way of finding pretty things
    A                B7
and bringing them to me

Chorus
E
I'm so into you
        Bm
But I'm way too smart for you
        A
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy
           Am
I'm not surprised that you agree
             E
If you could find some way to be
             Bm
A little bit less afraid of me
              A
You'd see the voices that control me
       Am
from inside my head
    D7                 E       Esus4 
Say I shouldn't kill you....yet

  E                        Esus4             E         Esus4
I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you
E                          Esus4
But I get the feeling that you don't like it
E7
What's with all the screaming?
         A                 E
You like monkeys, you like ponies
          A                      B7
Maybe you don't like monsters so much
        A             E
Maybe I used too many monkeys
         A         B7          A        B7
Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony
A                 B7
making a gift for you?

Chorus
E
I'm so into you
        Bm
But I'm way too smart for you
        A
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy
           Am
I'm not surprised that you agree
             E
If you could find some way to be
             Bm
A little bit less afraid of me
              A
You'd see the voices that control me
       Am
from inside my head
    D7                 E       Esus4 E E7
Say I shouldn't kill you....yet

Bridge

            A                         Abm
Picture the two of us alone inside my golden submarine
         A                  B7           
While up above the waves my doomsday squad
  E             E7
ignites the atmosphere
            A                   
And all the fools who lead their foolish lives
    Abm             C#7
may find it quite explosive
        F#m                              A                B7
Well it won't mean half as much to me if I don't have you here

Verse 3

    E                         Esus4                E       Esus4
You know it isn't easy living here on Skullcrusher Mountain
   E                             Esus4
So maybe you could cut me just a little slack
         E7
Would it kill you to be civil?
          A                  E
I've been patient, I've been gracious
         A                        B7
And this mountain is covered with wolves
          A                  E
Hear them howling, my hungry children
                 A        B7     A     B7
Maybe you should stay and have another drink
    A                  B7
and think about me and you

Final Chorus
E
I'm so into you
        Bm
But I'm way too smart for you
        A
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy
           Am
I'm not surprised that you agree
             E
If you could find some way to be
             Bm
A little bit less afraid of me
              A
You'd see the voices that control me
       Am
from inside my head
    D7                 E 
Say I shouldn't kill you yet
D7                 E
I shouldn't kill you yet
D7                 E    Esus4 E
I shouldn't kill you yet

A Talk With George

Verse 1
D    G      A       D
Long ago in days of yore
       G            A         D
It all began with a god named Thor
           A           Bm
There were Vikings and boats
         G                       D
And some plans for a furniture store
     D       G          A     D
It's not a bodega, it's not a mall
              G           A         D
And they sell things for apartments smaller 
     A           Bm          G                      D
than mine, As if there were apartments smaller than mine

Chorus
  A  Bm G                            D                         D    A    Asus4
I-ke-a (Ikea-a) just some oak and some pine and a handful of Norsemen
  A  Bm G                         D                          D    A    Asus4         
I-ke-a (Ikea-a) selling furniture For college kids and divorced men
G        D     A7 A7sus4 A7
Everyone has a home
    G            D      A                    D    Dsus4 D
But if you don't have a home you can buy one there

Verse 2
   D      G      A        D
So rent a car or take the bus
         G             A        D
Lay your cash down and put your trust
       A              Bm        G                       D
In the land where the furniture folds to a much smaller size
          G        A    D
Billy the bookcase says hello
              G           A         D
And so does a table whose name is Ingo
        A          Bm          G                              D
And the chair is a ladder-back birch but his friends call him Karl

I'm sorry I said Ikea sucks

I just bought a table for 60 bucks
      A           Bm         G                          D
And a chair and a lamp And a shelf and some candles for you

I was a doubter just like you

Verse 1
E             Ab              C#7
Tom Cruise is so in love with Katie
F#m                              B7
At least all his people tell him so
             E                   Ab           C#7
And while he thinks that she's a very special lady
F#m                                      B7  Ab
It's probably not the way he'd choose to go
      A           E                   F#m                C#m
And a lifetime of longing looks would cause too much distraction
A                      E        B7
Good thing that he's not gay anymore

Chorus
E   Ab        A          E
Tom Cruise is Tom Cruise crazy
F#m               B7      E     B7
Just be glad it's him not you
E      Ab       A        E
If you had Tom Cruise's troubles
     F#m                B7    Ab
You might be Tom Cruise crazy too
      C#m                  E7
You'd flash your big white shiny smile
      A             Am
You'd buy expensive shoes
          E       Ab  C#7
But you'd be the only man on Earth
     F#m       B7      E
Who couldn't enjoy Tom Cruise
   C#7     F#m        B7      E (re-intro)
Oh no, you couldn't enjoy Tom Cruise

Verse 2
E             Ab             C#7
Tom Cruise is always getting older
F#m				   B7
He knows he'll never be that young again
    E                     Ab            C#7
And when Tom Cruise looks back over his shoulder
F#m                                B7  Ab
He sees a thousand younger leading men
   A                   E
He knows someday he'll have to play
   F#m          C#m
An old retarded grandpa
      A               E              B7
While someone younger plays his sexy son

Chorus
E   Ab        A          E
Tom Cruise is Tom Cruise crazy
F#m               B7      E     B7
Just be glad it's him not you
E      Ab       A        E
If you had Tom Cruise's troubles
     F#m                B7    Ab
You might be Tom Cruise crazy too
      C#m                  E7
You'd flash your big white shiny smile
      A             Am
You'd buy expensive shoes
          E       Ab  C#7
But you'd be the only man on Earth
     F#m       B7      E
Who couldn't enjoy Tom Cruise
   C#7     F#m        B7      E (re-intro)
Oh no, you couldn't enjoy Tom Cruise

Bridge
C                G                   Am        Em
Tom Cruise knows somewhere there's a place for him
C           G             Am     B7
He's not of this world anymore...

Verse 3
E            Ab            C#7
Somewhere in some secluded castle
F#m                                 B7
Poor Tom Cruise sits staring at the wall
        E                Ab            C#7
And the outside world is always such a hassle
F#m                          B7  Ab
Sometimes he won't go out at all
          A            E
There are millions who know his name
F#m       C#m
Everybody loves him
A              E            B7
Why is it that he feels so alone?

Chorus
E   Ab        A          E
Tom Cruise is Tom Cruise crazy
F#m               B7      E     B7
Just be glad it's him not you
E      Ab       A        E
If you had Tom Cruise's troubles
     F#m                B7    Ab
You might be Tom Cruise crazy too
      C#m                  E7
You'd flash your big white shiny smile
      A             Am
You'd buy expensive shoes
          E       Ab  C#7
But you'd be the only man on Earth
     F#m       B7      E
Who couldn't enjoy Tom Cruise
   C#7     F#m        B7      E 
Oh no, you couldn't enjoy Tom Cruise

Chances are your pants are not as fancy as the pair
   Bm                      E7
Of very fancy pants that Mr. Fancy Pants will wear
     A                            F#
When everybody's marching in the fancy pants parade
     Bm            E7
He's gonna pass the test
     Bm          E7
He's gonna be the best
    Bm       E7       A    
The best in terms of pants

You look in every catalog you shop at every store
Cause even though you have a hundred pants you want some more
When suddenly you see the greatest pants you've ever seen
And even though you know
It's gonna cost a lot of dough
You have to have the world's best pants

D                              D7
Say a little prayer for Mr. Fancy Pants
   Bm            Ab
The whole world knows
   Bm            Ab
It's only     clothes
    F    
And deep inside
     E7
He's sad

They make the big announcement and the trophy goes to you
You thought you had some fancy pants and now you know it's true
You look at Mr. Fancy Pants and hold the trophy high
Everybody cheers
While he's blinking back the tears
He doesn't even have the best pants

Say a little prayer for Mr. Fancy Pants
It's all he   had
But don't feel bad
He'd do the same
To you

It said I love you signed anonymous friend
G                              Dmaj7
Turns out she's smarter than I thought she was

But I know that I'll forget the look of pity in her face
         G            A               G           A

I'll end world hunger I'll make dolphins speak

Work through the daytime, spend my nights and weekends

Perfecting my warrior robot race

I will do my best to teach them

About life and what it's worth
       G               G                 G           A
I just hope that I can keep them from destroying the Earth

 She'll look the same except for bionic eyes

 She lost the real ones in the robot wars

 I'll say I'm sorry, she'll say it's not your fault

Hearing the whir of the servos inside

She will scream and try to run

But there's nowhere she can hide
       G            A                 G         A
When a crazy cyborg wants to make you his robot bride

It's gonna be the future soon
           Bm               G
I've never seen it quite so clear
    Gm               D              Em
And when my heart is breaking I can close my eyes and
A            
it's already here

The Future Soon

A wonderful acoustic tune about the lonely life of...well...you'll get it by the end of the song -- wouldn't want to ruin it.

Verse 1
D        Em7 D          Em7  
 I lie below, you float above
D                       Em7              D            Em7
 In the pretty white ships that I've been dreaming of
        G              A7sus4
And I'd like to swim beside you
        G             A7sus4
Getting dizzy in your wake
        G               A7sus4
Getting close enough to touch you
        G               A7sus4           D
Getting brave enough to take you into my arms
              Cadd9           G/B
And bring you down to be with me

Chorus 1
G(2)   D/F#     Em7        A7 D Dsus4 D Dsus2
 But I can't do that thing anymore
G(2)     D/F#   Em7           Bsus2 Bm
 I can't be the thing I was before
G(2)   D/F# Em7    A7   D
 Maybe I am better off alone
        G       A7             G       A7
Because I crush everything and I crush everything 
    G       A7   D
and I crush everything

Verse 2
D          Em7    D               Em7
 My body's strong, but my will is weak
D                  Em7        D            Em7
 I got pretty nice arms, but I hate my beak
        G                A7sus4
And the dolphins are all phonies
          G              A7sus4
They seem nice enough at first
            G               A7sus4
But they pretend to be your friend
           G               A7sus4              D
Until they see you at your worst and then they leave you
          Cadd9          G/B
Without a word they swim away

Chorus 2
G(2)  D/F#     Em7        A7 D Dsus4 D Dsus2
 So I can't do that thing anymore
G(2)     D/F#   Em7           Bsus2 Bm
 I can't be the thing I was before
G(2)   D/F# Em7    A7   D
 Maybe I am better off alone
        G       A7             G       A7
Because I crush everything and I crush everything 
    G       A7   Bm
and I crush everything

Bridge
          Bm      F#m    Em  G(2)
And every thing I want I take
          Bm      F#m    Em   G(2)
And every thing I love I break
          Bm      F#m  Em  G(2)
And every night I lie awake

Verse 3
D                   Em7  D                   Em7
 Did the stars come out?  Did the world spin round?
D                    Em7                          Em7
 Does it matter that much when you're ten miles down?
       G                  A7sus4
In the light that filters down
        G            A7sus4
Into my giant yellow eye
      G               A7sus4
I can see the sails unfolding
           G                 A7sus4       D
Stretching white against the sky and I forgive them
     Cadd9          G/B
I forgive and I let go

Chorus 3
G(2)     D/F#     Em7        A7    D Dsus4 D Dsus2
 Cause I can't do that thing anymore
G(2)     D/F#   Em7           Bsus2 Bm
 I can't be the thing I was before
G(2)   D/F# Em7    A7   D
 Maybe I am better off alone
        G       A7             G       A7
Because I crush everything and I crush everything

E  B7          C#m  A
My monkey gets busy sometimes
E  B7             C#m               A           E
My monkey's got a lot of stuff he's gotta think about
   B7          C#m   A
My monkey gets tired sometimes
E  B7            C#m              A              Amaj7
My monkey wishes he was something you could live without

                         B7
Cause every monkey needs alone time
Amaj7                 B7
To eat bananas in the sunshine
Amaj7                        B7
It's feast or famine, it's a fine line
Amaj7                             B7
It doesn't mean my monkey doesn't love you

E  B7          C#m      A
My monkey gets frazzled sometimes

My monkey gets bitter sometimes

My monkey's not the only one who's acting like a jerk

                             B7
And while he doesn't like to name names
Amaj7                  B7
And he's not trying to assign blame
Amaj7                     B7
It's hard to focus on his own game
Amaj7                             B7
It doesn't mean my monkey doesn't love you

Cause everybody has their bad days
Amaj7                             B7
It doesn't mean my monkey doesn't love you

My Monkey

This is a song about a man who celebrates the end of winter by going outside and enjoying the first real day of spring, accompanied by his girlfriend.

G
I woke up this morning
        C                       G
I had a scone and a large house blend
    C             Cmaj7  Am             C                     D
And then a little conver-sation with my squirrel and chipmunk friends
           G
I said I'm sick and tired of winter
      C                G
And I wish that it was spring
C                 Cmaj7        Am              
And then a little fellow named Robin Redbreast
C           D     EbDim
 Began to sing

And he sang
Em                                        Am
 Ooh ooh child, what'd you think the cold winter's gonna last forever
Em                                         C             D
 Ooh ooh child, now's the time for all the people to get together
   C
Outside

[chorus]
                        G
Cause it's the first of May, first of May
        C              G
Outdoor fucking starts today
    D
So bring your favorite lady
      C          C/B  C/A G       G7
Or at least your favorite lay
    C                     G
The water's not cold baby dip in your big toe
    D                    G
Maybe I'll see you in flagrante delicto
C                C
Grass below you, sky above
Am        C6    C                    Cadd2
Celebrate spring with a crazy little thing called..

  G
I thanked him for the information
          C                    G
I cried a little when he flew away
  C             Cmaj7       Am                   
I watched an episode of The People's Court
      C                D
And I tried to plan my day
  G
I called up my old lady
           C                   G
She wasn't home so I called my girl
  C                  Cmaj7     Am          
I asked her if she'd like to join me as I
C              D      EbDim
 Entertain the world

And I said
Em                                        Am
Ooh ooh child, I'll bring a blanket and I promise I will brush the

                                                  ants off
Em                                             C
Ooh ooh child, you're gonna like it when we're taking each other's

                                                  D

Outside

[repeat chorus]

      G
So we went to the park together
        C                     G
We were walking in the midday sun
    C      Cmaj7    Am             C      
We met all kinds of people and we
               D
We fucked everyone
   G
We fucked a lady who sells ice cream
            C                   G
We fucked a man with a tan Shar Pei
C            Cmaj7  Am                C
Everyone who needed fucking well they
                  D     EbDim 
They got fucked today

So come on
Em                                      Am
 Ooh ooh child, open your mind and your heart, feel-the-spirit moving

                                       through you
Em                                            C                    D
 Ooh ooh child, you'll feel the warmth of the love when I stick it to

First Of May

Csus2                                Dm
Only a moment ago we had nothing but time
G                                          Am
Everything lasted forever and you were all mine
       Dm      G
Only a dream I know
               Em   Am
Thinking you’d never go
            Dm          D7
Tearing off pieces of myself
             Gsus4 G Gadd9 G
Just for the time it buys me

Chorus

Am7/E F        Csus2
Fold my heart up small
   Am7/E  F    E7
Or break it into pieces
Dm                 Am
Find somewhere and keep it there
A#       F    G   Csus2
Take it when you go

Verse 2

Csus2                                               Dm
There in the frame of your face in the cast of your eyes
G                                          Am
I saw this coming but still I am caught by surprise
            Dm     G
All of this time I knew
            Em    Am
That I’d be losing you
             Dm             D7
That doesn’t mean that it’s OK
             Gsus4 G  Gadd9 G
That doesn’t mean I’m ready

Chorus 2 into bridge

Am7/E F        Csus2
Fold my heart up small
   Am7/E  F    E7
Or break it into pieces
Dm                 Am
Find somewhere and keep it there
A#       F    G   Am  D7
Take it when you go
         Am D7
When you go
         Dm Bhalfdim G
When you go

Verse 3

Csus2                                             Dm
Some things we always remember, some things we forget
G                                       Am
No way to make it up now no room for regret
                   Dm G
That’s no good for anyone
         Em     Am
And so I come undone
         Dm               D7
Now I am less than what I was
           Gsus4 G Gadd9 G
Whatever’s left is yours now

Chorus

Am7/E F        Csus2
Fold my heart up small
   Am7/E  F    E7
Or break it into pieces
Dm                 Am
Find somewhere and keep it there
A#       F    G   Csus2
Take it when you go

I am glad to be shopping here with you

I will sit on this chair, 'till you're through
        G              A              D      A        G

I also am alone at home

I'm alone at home

         D5           A5                 D5
I would love to swing by the candle store

I agree we can always do with more
        G           A
Get as much as you want

I just don't want anyone to see the way we are
     Bb/F#       C
when we're this way
            A7                D
Can we just not make this a thing?

        D5            A5            D5
We can swing by your parents on the way
            D5          A5              D5/D/D5
We haven't seen them at all since yesterday
        G           A
We can talk about plans

For your cousin's birthday party
         D             A             G  C/G
We can swing by your parents on the way

Artificial Heart

Intro: E D# G F G# F G D

A-riff
Shed the days like skin, pray for evenings in
                                                         D-riff
Hold their hands in the street when you walk them off to school
A-riff
A box too full to shut, cardboard paper cut
                                                          D-riff
Bleeding edge of a picture of your parents when they were cool

E           F#m       D      A
 So much to say, I forget to start
E             F#m  D            A
 There goes a day, fading as it passes
E           F#m          D     A
 Forget the grey, let it fall apart
Bm         D
 It's okay
              A-riff
I like you in glasses


Shovels in the sand, a play-doh wedding band
A drowning princess in a tangle of towels on the floor
An old familiar ache, the little pills we take
The thoughtless kindness of a coffee cup waiting by the door

So much to say, I forget to start
There goes a day, fading as it passes
Forget the grey, let it fall apart
It's okay

(bridge: same as intro, hold the D when it goes to the verse)

It's on the board, someone's been double-booking

I've got time,  how is your next week looking?

House shifts into place, a little breathing space
The radiators and the floorboards will argue while we sleep
There's water in the walls, the stairs make waterfalls
Down in the basement the soft sound of a river digging deep

So much to say, I forget to start
There goes a day, fading as it passes
Forget the grey, let it fall apart

So much to say, I forget to start
There goes a day, fading as it passes
Forget the grey, let it fall apart
It's okay
I like you in glasses

Glasses

It's an amazing smile
        C#m             B
Even the suit has teeth
        E
Everything flash and guile
        A
And nothi ng underneath
        B                G#m        A	
Except a small black heart that no one sees but me
F#m                C            Am        B   C
I've been watching, I can see you start to wonder


E       B       G#m     C#m
Could it be that you need me
F#m        G#m      A           B
To keep you out, to run you faster
E        B      G#m     C#m
Promise me you'll let me be
F#m             B7              F#
The one, the worst of all your enemies
B7                  F#m	
Pretending you're a friend to me
B7                      E                C#m     B
Say that we'll be nemeses 


        E
Being a brilliant man
        C#m             B
Going to great expense
        E
Devising a master plan
        A
Doesn't make much sense
        B                      G#m           A	
Unless you find the one you're destined to destroy
F#m                  C                  Am    B C 
Now that you're here I don't seem that crazy do I?


E       B       G#m     C#m
Could it be that you need me
F#m        G#m      A           B
To keep you out, to run you faster
E        B      G#m     C#m
Promise me you'll let me be
F#m             B7              F#
The one, the worst of all your enemies

Pretending you're a friend to me

Say that we'll be nemeses 
 

F#7
Ah yes, my old friend
          A               B
You are a master of this game
F#7
The hidden blade when you pretend
                A               B	
That you don't even know my name
E
Well played

E	E	C#m	B


        E
Sometimes it's hard to tell
        C#m             B
If you even notice me
        E
Maybe it's just as well
        A
It's better you don't see
        B                   G#m                A		
The way I'm running just to keep your back in view
F#m              C              Am      B C 
In your shadow waiting for the perfect moment


E       B       G#m     C#m
Could it be that you need me
F#m        G#m      A           B
To keep you out, to run you faster
E        B      G#m     C#m
Promise me you'll let me be

Nemeses

Verse:
        F                
On the day she finally left me
         C7           F
She left one thing behind
          F
Just a small box on the table
          C7           F
That she wanted me to find
            Bb             F
There was something bad inside it
          Bb              A
It was something that I should have left alone


Chorus:
     D              Em7     Gmaj7/F# 
Now everything is standing still
        G        D       Bm         A     Asus4  A
It was only my head that made it revolve
 D              Em7     Gmaj7/F#  
Everything was fine until 
        G         Bbmaj7   C          F
it was awful instead now watch me dissolve
 

Verse:        
       F
I was mine now, something secret
            C7          F
Something precious and rare
              F
And then it changed me, and I liked it
       C7             F
Now I wish it wasn't there
           Bb          F
Would you cancel my appointments
        Bb               A
Pretty sure I won't be coming in today


Chorus x2


Verse:
          F           
It's too late to say I'm sorry
    C7           F
Anyway it's not true
            F
There's a small box on the table
       C7                F
And I left it there for you
        Bb             F
And I really hope you like it
        Bb             A
If you need me I'll be anywhere but here

One Christmas At a Time

Intro: |A |G D|A |A | 

Verse 1
A                                                 G
I guess I was skeptical when I first met Dr. Martin
A
He said we could build a baby out of DNA
    D                                                         
And although it was expensive it was legal in the states
                A     G  D  A
where it wasn't banned
       E                          D                C
It was Betty who suggested we cut out the parts of me
               A    G  D  A
that she can't stand

Pre-chorus 1
   F#m         Aaug6/F        A6/E       D#m7b5   
So we made an appointment and Betty went alone
F#m                 Aaug6/F          A6/E             D#m7b5
They worked out the details and then called me on the phone
       Bm              E  E6 E7
To say congratulations Dad

Chorus
A                      E          D         A
Now things are getting better for Betty and me
A                 E           D         A       F#m
We're making us a baby that's just like me only better
    B7                  F#m
And Betty says he'll be taller
    B7                  F#m
And Betty says he'll be smarter
    B7                  D            E
And Betty says that our baby will be better than me

Verse 2
A                                            G
Betty was pretty firm about our baby being human
A
I said we should give him wings and nice prehensile tail
         D                                                        A     G   D   A
He could travel with the circus making money, making friends with clowns
E                                D                    C            A    G   D   A
Betty said that's stupid and for God's sake would you turn that TV down?

Pre-chorus 2
    F#m             Aaug6/F          A6/E            D#m7b5
Now I've seen Betty happy, but she's never been like this
    F#m                  Aug6/F            A6/E        D#m7b5 
She glows like someone's girlfriend in the middle of a kiss
    Bm          E  E6 E7
And I'm excited too

Chorus
A                      E          D         A
Now things are getting better for Betty and me
A                 E           D         A       F#m
We're making us a baby that's just like me only better
    B7                  F#m

And the love inside me thunders like a storm

And I hope the tube they keep him in is comfortable and warm

I hope the nutritive solution that they're feeding him

A#                                              C
Then we can sit here on the couch just holding hands

And I'll say that you're beautiful
           A#                  A#m
And you'll say I'm moving too fast
      A#
But I won't mind

Because I know in time

            A#              C
You will be soft rocked by me

I use the passive voice to show how gentle I'll be
       Dm
When I soft rock you

I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
Am                      F
New York is cold, but I like where I'm living
        Dm7                     Em
There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.
Am                 Bm                   Am   
I hear that you're building your little house

Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair

She said that you gave it to her

Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
Am                           F
You'd been to the station to meet every train
Dm7                       Em
And you came home without Lili Marlene


        Am         Bm         Am            Bm
And you treated my woman to a flake of your life
    Am            G    Am               G
And when she came back she was nobody's wife.

Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth

She sends her regards.

And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
Dm7                 Em
What can I possibly say?
Am                         F
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you

I'm glad you stood in my way.

Am               Bm       Am          Bm
If you ever come by here, for Jane or for me
Am            G             Am           G
Your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free.

         C                           G
Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
                 Am                        Bm 
I thought it was there for good so I never tried.

[Verse 1]
             F 
Baby really hurt me
                Am 
crying in the taxi
                Dm
He dont wanna know me
                         Am                     A#     Dm
says you make the big mistake of dancing in my store 
Gm                  C
   Says it was poison
                 F
So I guess I go home 
          Am                     Dm
into the arms of the girl that I love
                Am 
the only love I havent screwed up
A#                  Dm
   She's so hard to please
             Gm      C  
but shes a forest fire
        F               
I do my best to meet her demands
Am
play it romance
         Dm
we slow dance in the living room
    Am                      A#
but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability
          Dm         Gm    C
You're a little much for me"
               F              Am 
So they pull back make other plans
       Dm 
I understand
     Am     A# 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave
       C            Dm            F    A#       
I'm a little much for eh oh-na-na-na everyone

[Verse 2]
            F 
The truth is, I am toy
                Dm
that people enjoy
                Am               A#
till all of the tricks dont work anymore
Dm              Gm       C
And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am
every perfect summer's eating me alive
            A#    Dm
unitl youre gone
Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability
          Dm         Gm    C
You're a little much for me"
               F              Am 
So they pull back make other plans
       Dm 
I understand
     Am     A# 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave
       C            Dm            F    A#       
I'm a little much for eh oh-na-na-na everyone

[Outro]
             Dm           F           A#
They're gonna watch me disappear into the sun
                 Dm        F           A#
You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun

Liability

A                                     E 
Roll into your town and I'm walking around
                                                Fm

                                                     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

C#m          E       B      A                     C#m   E    B   A 
I’m going away to be alone I’m coming back with answers
C#m           E            B    A            C#m   E   B   A
Don’t try to call my telephone it’s disconnected
C#m           E          B       A               C#m   E   B   A
And I don’t know where I’m going but can you guide me
C#m              E        B        A              C#m   E   B   A
But if I find love where I’m going will it survive me


PRE-CHORUS 1:

C#m            B   A                         C#m         A   B
‘Cause in your own space you’re disconnected and in your own mind you’re not affected
C#m         B   A                           C#m         A   B
And in your own time you’re still attracted but in your own life


CHORUS:

A                                 C#m            B

A                                 C#m                     B
I want some downtime so call me when you can and I’ll be fine


VERSE 2: [same chords as VERSE1]
I’ve found the time to be alone I don’t know what you’re asking
I’m waiting by the telephone and you’re still barking
My heart stops it isn’t… going could you revive me
I think I’m lost without knowing so come and find me


PRE-CHORUS 2:  [same chords as PRE-CHORUS1]
‘Cause in the same space we’re disconnected and in your own mind you’re not attracted
But in your own life over reacted and in your own time


{CHORUS x2}


Sometimes if we don’t go sometimes you don’t know
You don’t go I don’t go I don’t go you don’t go

C#5  B5  A5                      C#5  A5  B5
            I’ve got your back              but you don’t got mine
C#5  E5  A5                    C#5  A5  B5
            This heart attack              then I’m feeling fine


CHORUS x2

C#m          E       B    A 
I’m going away to be alone
C#m          E       B    A 
I'm going away to be alone ...............

plant seeds inside

only to leave them to die

out that I've been such a fool
D           
you thought you'd stick around
F
until the day you found
    E                    F
someone to make me obsolete

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
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                 A
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
    G              D          Bm    A
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

We don't even know why, no no no


[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime (we don't even know)
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time (we don't even know)
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                   A
(We don't even know, know, know, know, know)




[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


[Chorus]

 N.C.                     D
(Oh)Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
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)

Intro  D     Bm7   G     A     x2


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 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
        Bm7                 F#              G                    A
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
        Bm7 A   G                              Gm
Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away


Interlude   D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 2
          D                           Bm7
Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase
     G               A
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


Chorus
          D                        D7
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

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
         Bm7 A   G                               Gm
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say

May have lost this battle, live to fight another day

        D A E A D  E

      A

Seein? who I shouldn?t see
E
Doin? what I shouldn?t do
    A

Another voice told me it?s alright

But lately I just lost the fight

Chorus:
D         A       E          A
Funny how fallin? feels like flyin?
D          
 For a little while
D         A       E          A

 For a little while

      A
I got tired of bein? good
        D
Started missing that old feeling free
     E
Stop actin? like I thought I should
    A
And went on back to bein? me

  
I never meant to hurt no one
  D
I just had to have my way
           E
If there's such a thing as too much fun
A
This must be the price you pay

 For a little while

 You never see it comin? till it?s gone
E                     A           D
 It all happens for a reason even when it?s wrong
