VERSE 1
C
You're not as messed up as you think you are

Your self-absorption makes you messier
                                                  Am
Just settle down and you will feel a whole lot better
                            F    G        C
Deep down you're just like everybody else


VERSE 2
C
She's not as pretty as she thinks she is

Just picture her after she's had kids
                                            Am
I bet she sits at home and listens to The Smiths
                            F   G       C
Deep down she's just like everybody else


CHORUS
Dm                    G
So why are you sat at home?
                               C
You're not designed to be alone
                             Am
You just got used to saying "no"

So get up and get down and get outside
Dm                        G
Cos it's a lovely sunny day
                        C
But you hide yourself away
                              Am
You've only got yourself to blame
                                   C
Get up and get down and get outside


VERSE 3
C
He's not as clever as he likes to think

He's just ambitious with his arguing
                                                  Am
He's crap at dancing, yeah and he can't hold his drink
                           F   G       C
Deep down he's just like everybody else


VERSE 4
C
I'm not as awesome as this song makes out

I'm angry, underweight and sketching out
                                            Am
I'm building bonfires on my vanities and doubts
                       F    G       C
To get warm just like everybody else

Repeat the CHORUS ^


MIDDLE 8
G                                   A#
Amy thinks that life is lacking in drama
                                               F
So she fell for horoscopes, faith-healing and karma
                                       Dm
She's so wrapped up in her invisible armour
                         G
She'll never grow into herself
                                                      A#
And it's OK thinking me and all my friends are just wasters
                                                         F
But saying that I can still see through her heirs and graces
                                              Dm
I bet she's scared her life won't leave any traces
                          G
Caught up like everyone else


BRIDGE
                      F
That's not the point anyway
  G                                       F
Oh darling, I felt compelled to call you up to say...


CHORUS (let first Am ring, then come in on the D with intro rhtyhm)
Dm                        G
So why are you sat at home?
                               C
You're not designed to be alone
                             Am
You just got used to saying "no"

So get up and get down and get outside
Dm                        G
Cos it's a lovely sunny day
                        C
But you hide yourself away
                              Am
You've only got yourself to blame
                                   C
Get up and get down and get outside


OUTRO
(no guitar)
Get up and get down and get outside

Get up and get down and get outside
F               G

Get up and get down and get outside

Reasons Not To Be An Idiot

Am                               D
The first girl that I fell for was a fair and faithful fighter
     G                                     Am
She smouldered with a will to save the world
   Am                              D
I did my best to help her, yeah I stood shoulder to shoulder
        G                               Am
On the front lines with my visionary girl

   Dm  
I wish that she had cared for me
            G
But in the end her ideologies
 C            C/B             Am
Occupied the fortress of her heart
            Dm                                G
I wrote her 15 songs, but still we had to part

        F             Fm
And if music was the food of love
         C     C/B   Am       G
Then I'd be a fat romantic slob
      F               Fm            C
Well music, it's my substitute for love
     Am                               D
The last girl that I loved she was a low and lusty liar
     G                                   Am
She set my heart on fire, but made me choke
     Am                                     D
Her beauty was a sight to see, but she didn't save it all for me
         G                            Am
I found other fires by following the smoke

   Dm                                G
I wish that she had either cared for me or
let be me
         C              C/B              Am
But she chased me from mind and from my home
             Dm                        G
I wrote her 16 songs, but I ended up alone

        F              Fm
And if love is really all that we need
      C            C/B       Am          G
Then even all my singing is never gonna save me
  F             Fm             C
Music it's my substitute for love

               Am             G               C
Well I've had many different girls inside my bed
     Am          G             F
But only one or two inside my head
               Dm         Cadd9        G
These days I cuddle up to my guitar instead
     F                Fm            C             C/B            Am
But oh, what I would give, not to stumble but to really fall in love
              F                            G       
And I could substitute my singing for the sound of someone sleeping next to 
C
me

Substitute

C                              Em
Me and my friend Dan are gonna get some beers and then
            F              G                   C
We're gonna go down to the park and drink them there
      C                            Em  
We'll bask out in the sun, bring a guitar and play some songs
            F              G               Am
Call up our friends and invite them out to share

           Em          F              C 
What might be the last weekend of the summer
         Dm                            Am
Cause September's getting colder as it goes
       F            G              C      Em      Am
And we haven't done enough of this simple kind of stuff
                F                   G            C
this year. It's clear we're getting older and it shows

C                  Em             F 
Work weeks make us weary now and school's a distant memory
     G                           C
It's easy to ask questions of ourselves,
C                       Em            F
Like: where it is we're going now and what we have to show
            G                         Am
For all the sunny days shut up in the shells

        Em             F        C 
Of expectations of our ultimate directions
        Dm                                      Am
And the stations that we should have reached by now
        F                G              C      Em        Am
When we haven't read the script and our tender wings are clipped
          F                  G               C
And we're scared we might be letting someone down

C  G  F  Dm
C  G  F  Em  Dm  Em  Dm

C                                      Em 
So we listen to these heartbreak songs when nothing's really wrong
       F                G                   C
And we smile when we're asked and say we're fine

C                                                  Em
But we're drifting through our middle days, we're creeping into middle age
F              G                    Am
Setting in our ways... But now it's time
   Em             F            C 
To decide now its time to draw a line
       Dm                                 Am
In the sand and ask what's more important than days like today
             F     G         C           Em      Am
So grab some beers call your friends and meet us here
       F               G                 C       G        C
In the summer park with me and my friend Dan

Real Damage

Em
Ever since my childhood I've been scared I've been afraid

G
Of being trapped by circumstance and staying in one place

D
So I always keep a small bag full of clothes carefully stored

A
Somewhere secret somewhere safe

F
And somewhere close to the door

Em
Well I've traveled many countries I've washed my feet in many seas

G
I've drunk with drifters in Vienna and with punks in old dc

D
And I've driven across deserts driven by the irony

A                                                                                    F
That only being shackled to the the road could ever I be free


Em
To the east to the east

G
The road beneath my feet

D
To the west to the west

A                                      F
I haven't got there yet

Em
And to the north to the north

G
Never to be caught

D
To the south to the south

A                                    F
My time is running out







Continue on with the song like that :D 
(I'm unsure about the D chord, change it if you so desire).

The Road

A(muted strums)A(muted strums)A(muted strums)A(muted strums)
Continue the muted strum technique in the verses.

         A      
I was sipping on a Whiskey when I got the call
    F#m
Yeah my friend Lex was lying in the hospital
       Bm
She'd been pretty sick for about half a year
         E
But it seems liked this time the end was drawing near

      A
So dropped my plans and jumped the next London train
   F#m
I found her laid up and in a lot of pain
     Bm
Her eyes met mine and then I understood
            E                       E7
That the weather forecast wasn't looking too good
      A
So I sat and spun her stories for a little while
  F#m
Tried to raise her mood and tried to raise a smile
           Bm                            Bm
But she silenced all my rambling with a shake of her head
          E                       E7
Drew me close and listen this is what she said now

   A             F#m
"You'll live to dance another day, 
          Bm                   E            E7
it's just now you'll have to dance, for the two of us,
    A          F#m     
so stop looking so damn depressed 
     Bm
and sing with all your heart 
           E
that the Queen is dead"

          A
Yeah she told me she was sick of all the hospital food
        F#m
And of doctors, distant relatives, draining her blood
     Bm
She said "I know I'm dying, but I'm not finished just yet, 
       E                          E7
I am dying for a drink and for a cigarette"
        A
So we hatched a plan to book ourselves a cheap hotel
        F#m
In the centre of the City and to raise some Hell
       Bm                        Bm                 E 
They waste to all the clubs and then when everyone else is long asleep
    E7
We know we're good and done

   A             F#m
"You'll live to dance another day, 
          Bm                   E            E7
it's just now you'll have to dance, for the two of us,
    A          F#m     
so stop looking so damn depressed 
     Bm
and sing with all your heart 
           E       Bm
that the Queen is dead"
E                              Bm 
   And South London's not the same anymore
E               Bm   
   The Queen is dead,    
E                       Bm                        E
   and the last of the great has finally gone to bed

             A
Well I was working on some words when Sarah called me up
              F#m
She said that Lex had gone asleep and wasn't waking up
    Bm
And even though I knew that there was nothing to be done
        E                                     E7
I felt bad for not being there and now, well, she was gone
      A
So I tried to think what Lex would want me to do
    F#m
At times like this when I was feeling blue
       Bm
So I gathered up some friends to spread the sad sad news
                      E           E7
And we headed to the City for a drink or two

And we sang

A               F#m
   "We live to dance another day, 
          Bm              E    E7
it's just now we have to dance for one more of us, 
A                 F#m
   so stop looking so damn depressed, 
     Bm
and sing with all our hearts, 
 E              F#
long live the Queen"

INTRO

VERSE 1
G
You're not as messed up as you think you are

Your self-absorption makes you messier
                                                  Em
Just settle down and you will feel a whole lot better
                            C    D        G
Deep down you're just like everybody else


VERSE 2
G
She's not as pretty as she thinks she is

Just picture her after she's had kids
                                            Em
I bet she sits at home and listens to The Smiths
                            C   D       G
Deep down she's just like everybody else


CHORUS
Am                    D
So why are you sat at home?
                               G
You're not designed to be alone
                             Em
You just got used to saying "no"

So get up and get down and get outside
Am                        D
Cos it's a lovely sunny day
                        G
But you hide yourself away
                              Em
You've only got yourself to blame
                                   G
Get up and get down and get outside


VERSE 3
G
He's not as clever as he likes to think

He's just ambitious with his arguing
                                                  Em
He's crap at dancing, yeah and he can't hold his drink
                           C   D       G
Deep down he's just like everybody else


VERSE 4
G
I'm not as awesome as this song makes out

I'm angry, underweight and sketching out
                                            Em
I'm building bonfires on my vanities and doubts
                       C    D       G
To get warm just like everybody else

Repeat the CHORUS ^


MIDDLE 8
D                                   F
Amy thinks that life is lacking in drama
                                               C
So she fell for horoscopes, faith-healing and karma
                                       Am
She's so wrapped up in her invisible armour
                         D
She'll never grow into herself
                                                      F
And it's OK thinking me and all my friends are just wasters
                                                         C
But saying that I can still see through her heirs and graces
                                              Am
I bet she's scared her life won't leave any traces
                          D
Caught up like everyone else


BRIDGE
                      C
That's not the point anyway
  D                                       C
Oh darling, I felt compelled to call you up to say...


CHORUS (let first Am ring, then come in on the D with intro rhtyhm)
Am                        D
So why are you sat at home?
                               G
You're not designed to be alone
                             Em
You just got used to saying "no"

So get up and get down and get outside
Am                        D
Cos it's a lovely sunny day

But you hide yourself away
                              Em
You've only got yourself to blame
                                   G
Get up and get down and get outside

Eb   Ab        Cm
     Smeared black ink
Eb   Ab
  Your palms are sweaty
Cm
I'm barely listening
   Eb  Ab Cm
To last demands
Eb                   Ab
  I'm staring at the asphalt wondering
Cm
What's buried underneath

Ab Eb     Bb
    Where I stand

Ab Eb    Bb

Eb  Ab      Cm
    Wear my badge
Eb                     Ab
Vinyl sticker with big block letters
Cm
Adherent to my chest
       Eb  Ab         Cm
And it tells me where I am
Eb        Ab
   I am a visitor here

I am not permanent and the
Eb  Ab  Cm
   Only thing
Eb  Ab       Cm        
   Keeping me dry is

Ab          Eb
You seem so out of context
Bb
In this gaudy apartment complex
Ab         Eb
A stranger with your door key
Bb
Explaining that I'm just visiting
Ab       Eb         Bb
And I am finally seeing
                                Ab    Eb
Why I was the one worth leaving
Bb
   I was the one worth leaving

And the district sleeps alone tonight
                                Ab
After the bars turn out their lights
             Eb      
And send the autos swerving
Bb
Into the loneliest evening
Ab       Eb         Bb
And I am finally seeing
                            Ab     Eb
Why I was the one worth leaving
Bb                         Ab Eb Bb
   I was the one worth leaving

I was the one worth leaving

If I had been born 200 years ago

I would have been a sailor, a-Sailing I would go
          G                G/f#              G      G/F#        C

         G                               A            D

But the ocean is still out there magnificent and wide
G                                A                D
With open arms to hold me, and endless space to hide,

And the only things that hold me back are things I hold inside

Are just

VERSE 1:
       F
Well I guess I should confess that I am starting to get old. 
        C
All the latest music fads all passed me by and left me cold. 
        G                                 F
All the kids are talking slang I won't pretend to understand. 
       C                                  G               C
All my friends are getting married. Mortgages and pension plans.
          F
And it's obvious my angry adolescent days are done. 
        C
And I'm happy and I'm settled in the person I've become. 
         G                               F
But that doesn't mean I'm settled up and sitting out the game- 
A                               D                    (let chord ring)

C
Ditching teenage fantasy means ditching all your dreams. 
         G                               F
All your friends and peers and family solemnly tell you you will 
        C              G               C
have to grow up, be an adult. Yeah, be bored and unfulfilled. 
    F
But no one's yet explained to me exactly what's so great 
      C
about slaving 50 years away on something that you hate. 
      G                                 F
About meekly shuffling down the path of mediocrity.

C                        G   
Blacking in and out in a strange flat in East London
C                       F    
Somebody I don't really know just gave me something
   C                          G                             C       F    
To help settle me down and to stop me from always thinking about you 
         C                               G    
And you know you're life is heading in a questionable direction
            C                                  F    
When you're up for days with strangers and you can't remember anything
 C                                  G                                     C F          
Except the way you sounded when you told me you didn't know what I should do
G                             F              G
     It's a long road up to recovery from here
                       F    C   
A long way back to the light
G                             F               G
     It's a long road up to recovery from here
                        F    C    
A long way to making it right
          C                            G    
And so I wake up in the morning just like every other day
               C                             F    
And just like every boring blues song I get swallowed by the pain
       C                           G                            C  F    
So I fumble for your figure in the darkness just to make it go away
               C                            G    
But you're not lying there any longer and I know that that's my fault
             C                                   F    
So I've been pounding on the floor and I've been crawling up the walls
                  C                      G      
And I've been dipping in my darkness for serotonin 
          C                      F    
boosters, cider and some kind of smelling salts
G                             F               G
     It's a long road up to recovery from here
                       F    C     
A long way back to the light
G                             F               G
     It's a long road up to recovery from here
                        F    C    
A long way to making it right
           Am                               F                    C
So on the first night we met, you said well darling let's make a deal
   Am                    F                                   C   
If anybody ever asks us, let's just tell them that we met in jail
               Am                                F    
And that's the story that I'm sticking to like a stony-faced accomplice
    C                                        G    
But tonight I need to hear some truth if I'm ever getting through this
          Am                               F    
Yeah, you once sent me a letter that said "If you're lost at sea
           C                                   G    
Close your eyes and catch the tide my dear and only think of me"
      Bb                                 F    
Well, darling now I'm was sinking I'm as lost as lost can be
           G                                                      C
And I was hoping you could drag me up from down here towards my recovery
 
G  C  F        
 
             C                           G    
If you could just give me a sign, just a subtle little glimmer
       C                                      F    
Some suggestion that you'd have me if I could only make me better
              C                           G                    C           F    
Then I would stand a little stronger as I walk a little taller all the time
           C                         G   
Because I know you are a cynic but I think I can convince you
             C                           F    
Yeah, cause broken people can get better if they really want to
       C                                 G                    C        F    
Or at least that's what I have to tell myself if I am hoping to survive
G                             F               G
     It's a long road up to recovery from here
                       F    C    
A long way back to the light
G                             F               G
     It's a long road up to recovery from here
                        F    C   
A long way to making it right
G
So, darling, sweet lover, won't you help me to recover
F    
Darling, sweet lover, won't you help me to recover
G   
Darling, sweet lover, won't you help me to recover
F                                       C
Darling, sweet lover, one day this will all be over

Some days I wake up dazed my dear,

And gather thoughts to think:
That if all I had was one long road
It could drive a man to drink.

Catching your scent on someone else
In a crowded space
And it takes me somewhere I cannot quite place.

And if you remembered me,
You could save me from the way I tend to be.

Just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather
    C                       
And I can fuck up anything, anything.
         Am                  F
It was a wonderful life when we were together,

But sleeping gets tiring,   and dark reminds me of dying,

And as long as this feeble heart is still beating,
         C                                                        G
You will find me rushing through every room, switching on all the lights.


Pre-Chorus

    E                     Am
The problem with falling in love in latenight bars

Is that there's always more nights, there's always more bars.
    E                        Am
The problem with showing your lover your scars
        F
Is that everybody's lover is covered in scars.

At that moment just before the dawn when everything falls apart.
                  Am      F                   C          G
But baby I didn't mean it,  for things to get desperate.
     Am                  F
I let slip my guard, let go of the rudder,

Now we're drifting in the current away from one another.

F                   Em                       Am
Brave, and not just standing, but jumping in,
                       C
Of making circles into squares, of laying down
    F                 Em                   Am
The bare facts like a burden I can't bear.
                          C
And I can almost find the words, but I can see the way you'd
F                      Em            F               Em
Fold your hands, speak my name like a curse upon your pretty lips,
    F                 Em
the pressured white behind your fingertips.

And when you see me for all that I am

I couldn't make mistakes to make a difference any more.
                 Am                        G
I'd throw myself down on my knees, at your hands,
                   Fm                             C
And beg you for forgiveness for my fuckups and my faults.
                Am                              G
And maybe you'd relent, release my hope for our forever,
                      Fm                                   C         Am
Lift up your precious hands, and then bring yours and mine together,
                G               Fm                     C Am
So just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather.

Just give me one fine day of plain sailing weather.

G    Am    F    C
Peggy came to me in my sleep
G    Am    F    C
In the middle of the night on a Friday night last week
G    Am    F    C
She whispered hush child but don't be scared
G    Am    F    C
I've got a few words of wisdom that I've come back to share

Chorus

        F          C                         G
and she said, doesn't matter where you come from
F   C                         G
It matters where you go
F   C                         G        F   C                         
no one gets remembered, for the things they didn't do



G    Am    F    C
I said Peggy won't you stay here for a while
G    Am    F    C
We can drink whiskey, we can play cards and we can get wild
G    Am    F    C
She said we'll play poker and we'll play for keeps
G    Am    F    C
I only played angels lately and they never let me cheat


F          C                   G
doesn't matter where you come from
F   C                G

no one gets remembered, in this listless life, for the things they didn't do

E                          Am                        C
You could say I had a good time, you could say I had class
E                         Am               F               C
You could say that I was born beneath this ceiling made of glass
E                    Am                               C
But I always kept an open house and always did right by my friends
E                   Am                   F               C        
When I get to Saint Peter's gate I'll tell the keeper I'm not the one who 
              G
needs to make amends.

F            C         G       F      C      G
Cause better times are coming, better times ahead
F      C    G                               F            C       G
No one gets remembered, my deathless child, and soon you will be dead.

And Peggy said.


F          C                   G
doesn't matter where you come from
F   C                G
It matters where you go
F   C        G                                 F     C             G
no one gets remembered, in this listless life, for the things they didn't do

F          C                   G
Peggy sang the blues, as I drifted off well
F          C                   G
Peggy sang the blues, as I drifted off well
F          C                   G
Peggy sang the blues, as I drifted off well
F          C                   G
Peggy sang the blues, as I drifted off well
F          C                   G
Peggy sang the blues, peggy sang the blues

Capo II

A#                              C
Brothers and sisters, have you heard the news?
    A#                            A#7
The storm has lifted and there's nothing to lose,
    A#                              C
So swap your confirmation for your dancing shoes,
              A#      C     A#
Because there never was no God.

A#                            C
Step out of the darkness and onto the streets,
A#                                   A#7
Forget about the fast, let's have a carnival feast,
A#                                      C
Raise up your lowered head to hear the liberation beat,
              A#      C     A#
Because there never was no God.

         A#   A#
There is no God,
    C              A#
So clap your hands together,
         A#   A#
There is no God,
   C             Gm   
No heaven and no hell.
C        A#   A#
There is no God,
              C    Gm
We're all in this together,
C        A#   A#
There is no God,
    C                  A#-A#add9-A# x 4
So ring that victory bell.

No cowering in the dark before these overbearing priests,
Not waiting until we die until we restitute the meek,
No blaming all our failings on imaginary beasts,
Because there never was no God.

No fighting over land your distant fathers told you of,
Not spilling blood for those who have never spread a drop of blood,
No finger pointing justified by fairies up above,
Because there never was no God.

There is no God,
So clap your hands together,
There is no God,
No heaven and no hell.
There is no God,
We're all in this together,
There is no God,
So ring that victory bell.

      Gm                                   A11
And I know you're scared of dieing man and I am too,
         C                                   G7
But just pretending it's not happening isn't gonna see us through,
   Gm                                          A11
So just accept that there's an end game and we haven't got much time,
         C                          G7
And then in the here and now we can try and do things right.
  A#                                  A#
Forget about the crazy things that people have believed,
    A#add9                          C
And think of wondrous things that normal people have achieved.


'Cos I've known beauty in the stillness of cathedrals in the day,
I sang Glory Hallelujah! Won't you wash my sins away?
But now I'm singing my refrain and this is what I say,
I say there never was no God.

There is no God,
So clap your hands together,
There is no God,
No heaven and no hell.
There is no God,
We're all in this together,
There is no God,
So ring that victory bell.

Last Chorus
          
         A#   A#
There is no God,
    C              A#
So clap your hands together,
         A#   A#
There is no God,
   C             Gm   
No heaven and no hell.
C        A#   A#
There is no God,
              C    Gm
We're all in this together,
C        A#   A#
There is no God,
    C                  A#  A#
So ring that victory bell.

England Keep My Bones

- Verse 1 -
           G  
I got me a shovel
                  Em
And I'm digging a ditch
                 C                          G                   Em                D
And I'm going to fight for this four square feet of land like a mean old son of a bitch
           G
I got me a future
                     Em
I'm not stuck on the past
             C                      G                    Em                         D
I got no new tricks, yeah I'm up on bricks but me, I'm a machine and I was built to last


- Chorus -
    C                              D               G
I'm trying to get better because I haven't been my best
           C                           D             Em
She took a plain black marker, started writing on my chest
           C                            D
She drew a line across the middle of my broken heart,
           G                           Em
And said: "Come on now, let's fix this mess"
             C       D
We could get better
                       G
Because we're not dead yet

(same chord pattern)

- Verse 2 -
They threw me a whirlwind
And I spat back the sea
I took a battering but I've got thicker skin and the best people I know looking out for me
So I'm taking the high road
My engines running high and fine
May I always see the road rising up to meet me and my enemies defeated in the mirror behind

- Chorus -
I'm trying to get better because I haven't been my best
She took a plain black marker, started writing on my chest
She drew a line across the middle of my broken heart,
And said: "Come on now, let's fix this mess"
We could get better
Because we're not dead yet

- Bridge -
            G                          Em
It's just a knock in the small of your back
                G             Em
You can work it out with your fingers
            G                           Em
It's just a tune that got stuck in your head
                G             Em
You can work it out with your fingers
               G                          Em
It's just some numbers tangled up in your sums
                  G             Em
You could work it out with your fingers
            G                               Em                   G               
It's just a simple braille missing from the person you miss, a reminder you could always be
  C                      D
A little bit better than this

- Chorus -
So try and get better and don't ever accept less
Take a plain black marker and write this on your chest
Draw a line underneath all of this unhappiness
Come on now, let's fix this mess
We could get better
Because we're not dead yet
We could get better
Because we're not dead yet

Get Better

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.

It Ain't Me

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

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

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
