Lullaby Of Birdland

Am7	D7		G             Gdim
# Until I fell in love my life was very easy, 

Am7		      Cm6  D7
The moon just made it moonlight,

    G			      Gdim 
The breeze just made it breezy,

Am7	   D7		    G                     F9 
But then I fell in love and things that once were clear,

Bb             Em7  Cm6 D7 
Now I scarcely see or hear…

On the way I dropped it

A little girlie picked it up
D                 G
And put it in her pocket

        C                   Cm
She was truckin on down the avenue
     G            G7
With not a single thing to do
         C                 Cm
She went peck peck pecking all around
G                 D
When she spied it on the ground

Things have come to a pretty pass
    D7         G7
Our romance is growing flat,
C#m7                      F#m
For you like this and the other
E7                      Am7
While I go for this and that,
Em7                     A7
Goodness knows what the end will be
     D7                   G7
Oh I don't know where I'm at
   E7       A7    Bm7      D7       G
It looks as if we two will never be one
C7                G7
Something must be done:


D                  G
You say either and I say either,
D                   G
You say neither and I say neither
D       D7     G        Gdim
Either, either neither, neither
D                    A7    D
Let's call the whole thing off.

D                   G
You like potato and I like potahto
D                   G
You like tomato and I like tomahto

Let's call the whole thing off

    G7  F#m            B7          E7
But oh, if we call the whole thing off
A7           D
Then we must part
    G7  F#m        B7         E7         A7       D7
And oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart

   D                       G
So if you like pyjamas and I like pyjahmas,
D                     G
I'll wear pyjamas and give up pyajahmas
D      D7      G               Gdim
For we know we need each other so we
D               A7          D
Better call the whole thing off
D              A7          D7
Let's call the whole thing off.

D                    G
You say laughter and I say larfter
D                 G
You say after and I say arfter
D         D7      G     Gdim
Laughter, larfter after arfter

You like vanilla and I like vanella
D                   G
You saspiralla, and I saspirella
D       D7      G         Gdim
Vanilla vanella chocolate strawberry
D              A7          D
Let's call the whole thing off

    G7  F#m            B7          E7       A7      D
But oh, if we call the whole thing off then we must part
    G7  F#m        B7         E7         A7       D7
And oh, if we ever part, then that might break my heart

   D                         G
So if you go for oysters and I go for ersters
D                      G
I'll order oysters and cancel the ersters
D      D7      G               Gdim
For we know we need each other so we
D               A7          D
Better call the calling off off,
D              A7          D7
Let's call the whole thing off.

D                 G
I say father, and you say pater,
D                G
I saw mother and you say mater
D      D7    G      Gdim
Pater, mater uncle, auntie 
D              A7          D
let's call the whole thing off.

D                  G
I like bananas and you like banahnahs
D                G
I say havana and I get havahnah
D        D7        G       Gdim
Bananas, banahnahs havana, havahnah
D            A7      D7
Go your way, I'll go mine

D                           G
So if I go for scallops and you go for lobsters,
D                       G
So all right no contest we'll order lobseter
D      D7      G               Gdim
For we know we need each other so we
D               A7          D7

A foggy day, in London town
F      Fm6  G7       Gm7 C7
Had me low, had me down
F             Cm7 F7 Bb           Bbm6

                      G
The way you wear your hat
            Edim     Am7
The way you sip your tea
           D7     G7
The memory of all that
        C               E7        A7
No they can't take that away from me.

                        G
The way your smile just beams
            Edim     Am7
The way you sing off key
            D7       G7
The way you haunt my dreams
        C               D7        G
No they can't take that away from me.

       Bm7   E7    Bm7  E7             Bm7   E7      C#m7
We may never never meet again, on that bumpy road to love
         Bm7     E7     Bm7      E7     A7  D7
But I'll always, always keep the memory of

                      G
The way you hold your knife
           Edim        Am7
The way we danced till three
            D7         G7
The way you changed my life
        C               D7        G
No they can't take that away from me.
F7       G          G#dim Am7  D7   G
No, they can't take that away, from me...

Out on the plains down near Santa Fe

De nada dudes ya
Hey, honestamente te explicaré 
de natural modo cada fenómeno
El mar, el sol, el gas, 
oh, ese es Maui hablando de más
Anguilas que, yo las enterré, 
de la palmera los cocos creé
Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy
Am
  El tapiz que en mi piel se ve, 
F
  es el mapa de lo que gané
C
  Por donde fui provoqué mil sucesos

  Ve al pequeñín mini Maui nomás zapateando,
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ¡Hey!

School Friends

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

Arrows Of Eros

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
