Between Two Lungs

According to the Dog Days Are Over Songfacts, this paean to the inevitability of happiness was inspired by a giant text installation titled &quot;Dog Days Are Over&quot; by artist Ugo Rondinone, which Florence used to see every day riding her bike over Waterloo Bridge.

G                                   Am C D
Happiness hit her like a train on a track
G                                      Am C D
Coming towards her stuck still no turning back
G                                    
She hid around corners and she hid under beds
                      Am       C            D
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled
      G                                 
With every bubble she sank with her drink
      Am       C                D
And washed it away down the kitchen sink
G
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
                Am
The horses are coming
    C          D
So you better run
G
Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
                               Am
Leave all your loving, your loving behind
          C                         D
You cant carry it with you if you want to survive
G
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
                   Am
Can you hear the horses?
         C         D
'Cause here they come
    
     G              Am        C   D
And i never wanted anything from you
            G          Am       C                        D
Except everything you had and what was left after that too, oh
G                                      Am C D
Happiness hit her like a bullet in the head
G                                                Am   C           D
Struck from a great height by someone who should know better than that

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses?
'Cause here they come

Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
Leave all your loving, your loving behind
You cant carry it with you if you want to survive

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses?
'Cause here they come

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
The horses are coming
So you better run

Am 
The looking glass, so shiny and new
G
How quickly the glamor fades
Am
I start spinning slipping out of time
G
Was that the wrong pill to take (Raise it up)
You made a deal, and now it seems you have to offer up
But will it ever be enough
(Raise it up, raise it up)
It's not enough
(Raise it up, raise it up)
            Am                                  G
Here I am, a rabbit hearted girl
                         Dm7
Frozen in the headlights
                        Am           G
It seems I've made the final sacrifice

Am              G                   Am
We raise it up, this offering]
                    G
We raise it up

                Dm                               F
This is a gift, it comes with a price
                    Am                               G
Who is the lamb and who is the knife
                Dm                                       F
Midas is king and he holds me so tight
                              Am                        G
And turns me to gold in the sunlight

Am
I look around, but I can't find you 
               G
(raise it up)
If only I could see your face
               Am
(raise it up)
Instead of rushing towards the skyline
               G
(raise it up)
I wish that I could just be brave

                Am                                 G
I must become a lion hearted girl
                     Dm7
Ready for a fight
               Am           G
Before I make the final sacrifice
 
                   Am                 G
We raise it up, this offering
                    Am
We raise it up

Chorus

Am
Raise it up, raise it up
(repeat)
                    Am                         G
And in the spring I shed my skin
                         Am                                         G
And it blows away with the changing wind
                    Am                           G
The waters turn from blue to red
                            Am             G 
As towards the sky I offer it

 Chorus x2

                Am
This is a gift

Dog Days

According to the Kiss With a Fist Songfacts, this sexually charged number was written when Welch was hanging out with art college dropouts. She told The Sunday Times: &quot;It's about giving as good as you get.&quot; Florence explained the song's meaning on her Myspace: &quot;Kiss with a Fist&quot; is NOT a song about domestic violence. It is about two people pushing each other to psychological extremes because they are fighting but they still love each other. The song is not about one person being attacked, or any actual physical violence, there are no victims in this song.

Youve Got The Love

The reading list of Florence Welch, the vocalist and main person of Florence and the Machine, is evidently extensive and morbid. This song, which started off being originally about a werewolf before developing into a ditty about extremely passionate love, was clearly influenced by the gothic horror stories she read as a child. Welch told The Scotsman January 25, 2009: &quot;When I was a kid, I was physically afraid of monsters and ghosts, vampires and werewolves.

Dm                      C    
If you could only see the beast you've made of me

Bb
I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free

Dm                     C
Screaming in the dark, I howl when we're apart

Bb
Drag my teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart



C                        
My fingers claw your skin, try to tear my way in

Bb
You are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to howl

Dm                            C
Now there's no holding back, I'm making to attack

Bb
My blood is singing with your voice, I want to pour it out

Dm                            C
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound

Bb                                                        
I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallow'ed ground

Like some child possessed, the beast howls in my veins

Dm          C         Bb
Hunters, hunters, hunters



Dm                    C         
The fabric of your flesh, pure as a wedding dress

Bb
Until I wrap myself inside your arms I cannot rest

Dm                           C  
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound

Bb                                                        Dm   C    Bb
I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallow'ed ground

Dm  C  Bb
And howl



Dm            C                 Bb
Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers

Dm           C                  Bb
Starts so soft and sweet and turns them to hunters

Dm            C            Bb   
A man who's pure of heart and says his prayers by night 

Dm            C             Bb
May still become a wolf when the autumn moon is bright



Dm                     C 
If you could only see the beast you've made of me

Bb
I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free

Dm                           C
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound

Bb                            C                          Dm
I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallow'ed ground

My boy builds coffins with hammers and nails
  F              Dm            Am
He doesn't build ships, he has no use for sails
  F              Dm      Am
He doesn't make tables, dressers or chairs
   F             Dm               Am 
He can't carve a whistle cause he just doesn't care

My boy builds coffins for the rich and the poor
Kings and queens have all knocked on his door
Beggars and liars, gypsies and thieves
They all come to him 'cause he's so eager to please

F              Dm        Am
My boy builds coffins he makes them all day

But it's not just for work and it isn't for play

My boy builds coffins for better or worse
Some say it's a blessing, some say it's a curse
He fits them together in sunshine or rain
Each one is unique, no two are the same

My boy builds coffins and I think it's a shame
That when each one's been made, he can't see it again
He crafts every one with love and with care
Then it's thrown in the ground and it just isn't fair

My boy builds coffins he makes them all day
But it's not just for work and it isn't for play
He's made one for himself
One for me too
One of these days he'll make one for you

I'm Not Calling You A Liar

Em
There's a drumming noise inside my head
That starts when you're around
D
i swear that you could hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound

Em
There's a drumming noise inside my head
That throws me to the ground
D
I swear that you should hear it
It makes such an all mighty sound

Em
Louder than sirens
C
Louder than bells
D
Sweeter than heaven
Em           C D
And hotter than hell

Em
I ran to a tower where the church bells chime
I hoped that they would clear my mind
D
They left a ringing in my ear
But that drum's beating loud and clear

Em
Louder than sirens
C
Louder than bells
D
Sweeter than heaven
Em          C D  
And hotter than hell

Em
louder than sirens
C
Louder than bells
D
Sweeter than heaven
Em          C D
And hotter than hell

Em
Louder than sirens
C
Louder than bells
D
Sweeter than heaven
Em           C D
And hotter than hell

Em                   C  
As I move my feet towards your body
   D                 Em  
I can hear this beat it fills my head up
            C         D      
And gets louder and louder
Em                              C         D 
It fills my head up and gets louder and louder
Em             D        Em            D           
I run to the river and dive straight in
Em                D          Em           D
I pray that the water will drown out the din

Em
But as the water fills my mouth
C                      D 
It couldn't wash the echoes out
Em 
But as the water fills my mouth
C                       D
It couldn't wash the echoes out

Em             C                         D
I swallow the sound and it swallows me whole
Em              C                    D
Till there's nothing left inside my soul
Em              C          D
As empty as that beating drum
Em              C       D Em C D 
But the sound has just be-gun

Em                   C         
As I move my feet towards your body
       D              Em
I can hear this beat it fills my head up
           C          D  
And gets louder and louder
Em                             C           D
It fills my head up and gets louder and louder

Drumming Song

 Featured as the b-side to Florence + The Machine's second single 'Dog Days Are Over', this track is a cover of the Candi Staton chart hit, You Got The Love.  According to the You Got The Love Songfacts, Candi Staton originally recorded the song for a diet product. 

You've Got The Love

Am         Dm             C           E7             
      She told me not to step on the cracks
Am       Dm              C          E7             
      I told her not to fuss and relax
Am                      Dm           C        E7             
Well, her pretty little face stopped me in my tracks
    Dm                   E7      Am
But now she sleeps with one eye open
Dm          E7        Am       E7
That's the price she paid


   Am      Dm           C       E7             
I took a knife and cut out her eye
  Am      Dm                   C         E7             
I took it home and watched it wither and die
Am           Dm                  C          E7             
Well, she's lucky that I didn't slip that smile
       Dm                  E7       Am
That's why she sleeps with one eye open
Dm          E7        Am
That's the price she paid

Am      Dm    C            E7             
I said, hey, girl with one eye
Am               Dm     C         E7             
Get your filthy fingers out of my pie

     E7                                              E7
I'll cut your little heart out cause you made me cry
  
Am            Dm   C         E7             
 I slipped my hand under her skirt
Am            Dm              C        E7                      
 I said don't worry No, it's not gonna hurt
Am           Dm           C            E7             
Oh, my reputation's kinda clouded with dirt
       Dm                     E7     Am
That's why you'll sleep with one eye open
Dm           E7       Am
That's the price you paid


Am      Dm   C             E7             
I said, hey, girl with one eye

Girl With One Eye

-----
Em           D                C               Bm                                
Seems that I have been held, in some dreaming state

Em                D            C            Bm
A tourist in the waking world, never quite awake

Em                 D            C               Bm
No kiss, no gentle word could wake me from this slumber

Em               D          C               Bm
Until I realize that it was you who held me under

              Em                       D             C       Bm                           
Felt it in my fist, in my feet, in the hollows of my eyelids

                   Em                         D                C     Bm              
Shaking through my skull, through my spine and down through my ribs


Chorus
------
Bm                      Em                 D         C     Bm
No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone

                       Em                    D              C     Bm
No more calling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden

                        Em                      D
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love

                        C                      Bm
No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love

                        Em          D                  C     Bm
No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world

Blinding

This song about a kiss was one of the first songs that she'd ever written and became the prototype for her dark, quirky and intense sound. It came about when Welch was experimenting in a friend's home studio. Instead of playing the drums, she pounded the studio walls with her hands. The fledgling songwriter picked out a melody on the piano even though it wasn't an instrument she knew how to play, and recorded the backing vocals first, before writing the top line. Welch recalled to The Sun February 2, 2009 &quot;When I hear it, I'm hearing myself learning how to make a song, piece by piece.

C                                       F
Between two lungs it was released
                        C
The breath that carried me
                          Em
The sigh that blew me forward

               G
'cause it was trapped
F
Trapped between two lungs
    G     F
It was trapped between two lungs
    G   F                        C
It was trapped between two lungs

       C                  F
And my running feet could fly
              C          F                C
Each breath screaming: "We are all too young to die!"


C    F    C     F

C            F                C

The breath that passed from you to me
           F              C
It flew between us as we slept
                  F                      C
It slipped from your mouth into mine it crept
            F                C
Between two lungs it was released
                 F                 C

Gone are the days of begging, the days of theft
         F            C
No more gasping for a breath
             F                 C
The air has filled me head to toe
                  F             C
And I can see the ground far below
            F                     C
I have this breath and I hold it tight

I pray to God this breath will last

My arms around his neck, my fingers laced to crown

     F       C          G
Your songs remind me of swimming,
           G          C          F 
Which I forgot when I started to sink
        F        C            G  
Dragged further away from the shore,
    G      C        F
And deeper into the drink


F          C             G
Sat on the bottom of the ocean,
  G         C        F
A stern and stubborn rock
         F       C          G 
Cos your songs remind me of swimming,

But somehow I forgot

     
F     C        G    
I was sinking, now I'm sunk
    G     C             F
And I was drinking, and now I'm drunk
     F       C          G
Your songs remind me of swimming,
    G       C     F
But somehow I forgot.

  F        C            G
I tried to remember the chorus,
  G       C          F
I can't remember the verse
         F         C       G
Cos that song that sent me swimming,
   G              C         F
Is now the life jacket that burst


F              C            G
Rotting like a wreck on the ocean floor,
G              C          F
Sinking like a siren that can't swim anymore
         F       C          F
Coz your songs remind me of swimming,
      G          C  F
But I can't swim anymore

F               C      G
Pull me out the water, cold and blue,
  G       C                      G         
I open my eyes and see that it's you,
        F             C           G
So I?ll dive straight back in the ocean
         G             C           F
Yes I?ll dive straight back in the ocean

F           C               G
Take a deep breath suck the water in my chest
G           C               F
Take a deep breath suck the water in my chest
    F            C          G
Then cross my fingers, 
          G                 C       F
Then I?ll hope for the best


Am                    G
Then all of a sudden, I heard a note,
F                           F           G
It started in my chest, and ended in my throat

Bird Song

C                            Dm
I've fallen out of favor and I've fallen from grace
Am
Fallen out of trees and I've fallen on my face
C                    Dm
Fallen out of taxis, out of windows too
Am
Fell in your opinion when I fell in love with you

Am                 Dm
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Am                 Dm
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Sometimes I wish for falling, wish for the release
Wish for falling through the air to give me some relief
Because falling's not the problem, when I'm falling I'm at peace
It's only when I hit the ground it causes all the grief

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Whoa-oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

This is a song for a scribbled-down name
And my love keeps writing again and again
This is a song for a scribbled-down name
And my love keeps writing again and again

And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again

(this is the same)

I dance with myself, I drunk myself down
Found people to love, left people to drown
I'm not scared to jump, I'm not scared to fall
If there was nowhere to land I wouldn't be scared at all

C
At all

Dm
At all

C Dm
Fall

C Dm
Fall

And the bargain must be made
Em                      Bm
But oh, my love, don?t forget me

Pockets full of stones
 

Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow

What The Water Gave Me

Dm
You are the hole in my head,
            F
you are the space in my bed.
            C
You are the silence in between,
       G
what I thought and what I said

            Dm
You are the night time fear,
            F
you are the morning when it's clear.
          C
When it's over your start,
          G
you're my head and you're my heart.

# CHORUS
   Dm
No light, no light in your bright blue eyes,
        F
I never knew daylight could be so violent.
C
A revelation in the light of day,
G
you can't choose what stays and what fades away.
Dm                               F
And I'll do anything to make you stay,
C
no light, no light.
G
Tell me what you want me to say.

Dm                         F
And through the crowd I was crying out,
    C                          G
and in your place there were a thousand other faces.
      Dm              F
I was disappearing in plain sight,
C                 G
heaven help me  I need to make it right.

Dm
You wanna revelation, you wanna get it right.
F
But it's a conversation, I just can't have tonight.
C
You wanna a revelation, some kinda resolution,
G
you wanna revelation.

Tell me what you want me to say.

Would you leave me if I told you what I've done?
              C             G
And would you leave me if I told you what I've become?
              Dm      F
Cause it's so easy to say it to a crowd,
            C                     G             Dm   G
but it's so hard, my love, to say it to you out loud

And given half the chance would I take any of it back
Dm                          Bb
It's a final mess but it's left me so undone

And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
Dm                                     C
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
Gm
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
Dm                           C
It's a shot in the dark and right at my throat
Bb
Cause looking for heaven, for the devil in me
Dm                            C
Looking for heaven, for the devil in me

Well what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me

Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah

And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back

So shake him off, oh woah

Lover To Lover

D                            A            
  Looking up from underneath, fractured moonlight on the sea,
F#m                                   E
  Reflections still look the same to me, as before i went under.
D                             A
  And it's peaceful in the deep, cathedral where you cannot 

F#m                              E
  Breathe no need to pray no need to speak, now i am under.
D                            F#m
  Oh and it's breaking over me, a thousand miles down to the sea
E                           D
  Bed, I found a place to rest my head 

(never let me go never let me go)
(never let me go never let me go)


        A            E        F#m      D
And the arms of the ocean are carrying me,
    A           E          F#m           D    
And all this devotion was rushing out of me,
         F#m         E            F#m        D
And the crashes are heaven for a sinner like me,
        A           E        F#m        (F#m, E)
But the arms of the ocean delivered me.
  

D                                   A
  Though the pressure's hard to take, it's the only way i can escape,
F#m                           E
  It seems a heavy choice to make, now i am under.
D                         F#m
  And it's breaking over me, a thousand miles down to the sea 
E                               D
  Bed I found a place to rest my head

(never let me go, never let me go)
(never let me go, never let me go)


        A            E        F#m      D
And the arms of the ocean are carrying me,
    A           E          F#m           D    
And all this devotion was rushing out of me,
         F#m         E            F#m        D
And the crashes are heaven for a sinner like me,
        A           E        F#m        (F#m, E)
But the arms of the ocean delivered me.

          F#m    D         F#m   E
  And it's over, and i'm going under,
               C#m   D           F#m    E
  But i'm not giving up, i'm just giving in,
   C#m  D    F#m  E   
  Whoaaa, slipping underneath,
   C#m  D    F#m  E
  ooooo, so cold but so sweet.

         A            E          F#m          D
  In the arms, of the ocean, so sweet and so cold,
      A           E         F#m           D
  And all this devotion, i never knew at all,
          F#m         E              F#m       D
  And the crushes are heaven, for a sinner released,
          A            E            (F#m, E)    
  And the arms of the ocean...

     D         A        E      F#m   
  Delivered me..
  
 (The outro just continues with D,A,E,F#m)
 
 Never let me go, never let me go, 
 Never let me go, never let me go,
 Never let me go, never let me go, 
 Never let me go, never let me go,

Never Let Me Go

Intro: G, B, C, D#



G         B  C
All alone
                D#        G
It was always there you see
                   B  C
And even on my own
                        D#       D
It was always standing next to me



              F                          C
I can see it coming from the edge of the room

Creeping in the streetlight
D          F                C
Holding my hand in the pale gloom
                A
Can you see it coming now?



G B C                   (D#)
Oh, I think I'm breaking down again
G B C                   (D#)
Oh, I think I'm breaking down



All alone
Even when I was a child
I've always known
There was something to be find


You know that I can see you coming from the edge of the room
Creeping in the streetlight


Holding my hand in the pale gloom
Can you see it coming now?


Oh, I think I'm breaking down again
Oh, I think I'm breaking down


All alone
On the edge of sleep
My old familiar friend
Comes and lies down next to me


And I can see you coming from the edge of the room
Smiling in the streetlight
Even with my eyes shut tight
I still see you coming now

Oh, I think I'm breaking down again
Oh, I think I'm breaking down again
Oh, I think I'm breaking down again
Oh, I think I'm breaking down

Breaking Down

Am                       F
Holy water cannot help you now.
Am                                   F
A thousand nuns couldn't keep me out.
Am                                            F
I don't want your money, I don't want your crowd.
Am                                F
See, I have to burn your kingdom down.

Am                                                     F
And no rivers, no lakes could put the fire out.
Am                                                     F
I'm gonna raise the stakes, I'm gonna smoke you out.

                          Asus2 Am
Seven devils all around you.
                             F
Seven devils in my house.
                                                    Dm            Am
See, they were there when I woke up this morning
                                         Dm     G 
and I'll be dead before the day is done.

Seven devils all around you.
                             F
Seven devils in your house.
                                                    Dm            Am

and I'll be dead before the day is done.

And now all your love will be exorcised
And we will find you saying it's to be harmonized.
And it's an even sum
It's a melody
It's a battle cry
It's a symphony

G                               Am               
Another conversation with no destination
Em                                       C
Another battle, never won
G                               Am 
And each side has a loser
Em                                       C
So who cares if I had the gun?

G                                    
And I'm learning, so I'm leaving
Am
And even though I'm grieving
Em
I'm trying to find the meaning
C
Let and loss reveal it
G  Am                    Em  C
Let and loss reveal it

G              Am               Em               C
St. Jude, the patron saint of the lost causes
G              Am               Em               C
St. Jude, we were lost before she started
G              Am               Em               C
St. Jude, we lay in bed as she whipped around us
G              Am                                                         Em               C
St. Jude, maybe I've always been more comfortable in chaos

G
And I was on the island 
Am
And you were there too
Em
But somehow through this storm
C
I couldn't get to you

G  
Oh St. Jude
Am                    Em  C
Somehow she knew

G
And she came to give her blessing
Am

St. Jude, we lay in bed as she whipped around us

Am F Dm Am x2

[Verse 1]
Am               F              Dm                Am
Don't touch the sleeping pills, they mess with my head
Am           F             Dm                 Am
Dredging of big white sharks, swimming in the bed
Am               F            Dm          Am
And here comes a killer whale, sing me to sleep
Am             F         Dm              Am
Thrashing the covers off, has me by its teeth

[Pre-Chorus] 
     C      Dm             Am                  F
And, ah, my love remind me, what was it that I said?
C                   Dm                   Am          F
I can't help but pull the earth around me to make my bed
     C      Dm             Am                  F
And, ah, my love remind me, what was it that I did?
      C                    Dm
Did I drink too much? Am I losing touch?
      Am              F
Did I build a ship to wreck?

[Chorus]
   Am   F    Dm    Am  Am   F
To wreck, to wreck, to wreck
      Dm                 Am
Did I build this ship to wreck?

[Verse 2]
Am               F        Dm           Am
What's with the long face? Do you want more?
Am           F             Dm                 Am
Thousands of red-eyed mice, scratching at the door
Am                F             Dm                          Am
And don't let the current catch you, cause you've been here before
Am               F             Dm                    Am
The chair is an island, darling, you can't touch the floor

[Pre-Chorus] + [Chorus]

Am F Dm Am x2

[Bridge]
     F        G
Good God, the star, the skies
       Am    F                       F   
We are lost, into the breach, we got tossed
        G                 Am 
And the world is coming in fast

[Pre-Chorus] + [Chorus x 2]

Ship To Wreck

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah, 
     F#                      E       B   F#
I'm going where the people know my name

I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

and everyone's your enemy
A                                        E

A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song

to remind yourself that you forgot

Overreacting

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
