Intro: D F#m G x4


1st verse:
       D
 We're never done with killing time
                   F#m
 Can I kill it with you?
                            G
 'Til the veins run red and blue
    D
 We come around here all the time
                  F#m
 Got a lot to not do
                     G
 Let me kill it with you


pre-chorus:
             D
 You pick me up and take me home again
 
 Head out the window again
       F#m                             G
 We're hollow like the bottles that we drain
                D                                
 You drape your wrists over the steering wheel

 Pulses can drive from here
F#m                             G
  We might be hollow, but we're brave


chorus:
            D
 And I like you
                                                               
 I love these roads where the houses don't change 
           F#m   
(and I like you)

F#m                                G                            
 Where we can talk like there's something to say 
            D
(and I like you) 

D                                                   F#m
 I'm glad that we stopped kissing the tar on the highway 
                         G
 We move in these tree streets
                    D
 I'd like it if you stayed


2nd verse:
D                                                     F#m
 Now we're wearing long sleeves and the heating comes on
                        G
 (You buy me orange juice)
G
 We're getting good at this
D
 Dreams of clean teeth
                           
 I can tell that you're tired
        F#m             
 But you keep the car on
             G
 While you're waiting out front


pre-chorus:
            D
You pick me up and take me home again
 
 Head out the window again
       F#m                             G
 We're hollow like the bottles that we drain
                D                                
 You dig your wrists over the steering wheel

 Pulses can drive from here
F#m                             G
  We might be hollow, but we're brave

chorus:
              D
   And I like you

F#m                               G                            
 Where we can talk like there's something to say 
            D
(and I like you) 
D                                                  F#m
 I'm glad that we stopped kissing the tar on the highway 
                        G
 We move in these tree streets
                    Bm
 I'd like it if you (stay)   


Bm
We're never done with killing time
                    A
 Can I kill it with you?
 A                         
 'Til the veins run red and blue
    G                           A  
 We come around here all the time
                  Bm         
 Got a lot to not do
                         D                         
      Let me kill it with you

chorus:
            D
 And I like you

Intro: Em G
Em                                    G                    
I remember when your head caught flame
Em                                      G
It kissed your scalp and caressed your brain 
Em                                     G
(I remember when your head caught flame)
Em                                     G
Well you laughed, baby it's okay
Em                              G
It's buzzcut season anyway
Em                                      G 
(Well you laughed, baby it's okay)
C
Explosions on TV
                                       Em
And all the girls with heads inside a dream
                     C
So now we live beside the pool
                                    Em
Where everything is good
Em                                        G
We ride the bus with our knees pulled in
Em                            G 
People should see how we're living
Em                                         G
(We ride the bus with our knees pulled in)
Em                               G
Shut my eyes to the song that plays
Em                                  G
Sometimes this has a hot, sweet taste
Em                                 G
(Shut my eyes to the song that plays)
        C
The men up on the news
                                Em
They try to tell us all that we will lose
                   C
But it's so easy in this blue
                                    Em
Where everything is good
                               C
And I'll never go home again (place the call, feel it start) 
Em                                                                                         D
Favorite friend (and nothing's wrong when nothing's true)
                                            Em
I live in a hologram with you
                                                  C
We're all the things that we do for fun (and I'll breathe and it goes)
Em                                                                D
Play along (make believe it's hyperreal) 
D                                                 Em                        
But I live in a hologram with you
Em                   G
Cola with the burnt-out taste
                                             D
I'm the one you tell your fears to
                                                  Em
There'll never be enough of us

Their molars blinking like the lights

In the underpass where we all sit

F
I'm in a clique but I want out
                                 C
It's not the same as when I was punched
In the old days there was enough
                                                 F
The card games and ease with the bitter song of blood
I was in but I want out
                            C
My mother's love is choking me
I'm sick of words that hang above my head
                                           F
What about the kid? It's time the kid got free

       C
Be a part of the love club
                         F
Everything will glow for you
            C
You'll get punched for the love club
                F
For the love club.


F
I joined the club and it's all on
                                     C
There are fights for being my best friend
And the girls get the claws out
                                                F
There's something about hanging out the wicked kids
Take the pill make it too ill
                                 C
The other day I forgot my old address
I'm sitting pretty on the throne, there's nothing more I want
                   F
Except to be alone.


       C
Be a part of the love club
                         F
Everything will glow for you
            C
You'll get punched for the love club
                F
For the love club.

F - C - F - C

C
Your clothes are soaked and you don't know where to go
So drop your chin and take yourself back home
          F
And roll out your maps and papers
                             C
Find out your hiding places again
The only problem that I got with the club
                                                          F
Is how you're severed from the people who watched you grow up
When you're a member go on your great adventure again
N' we'll be waiting at the end

       C
Be a part of the love club
                         F
Everything will glow for you
            C
You'll get punched for the love club
                F
For the love club.

Bm
All my life,
            G         A
I've been fighting a war
          Bm     G            A
I can't talk to you or your friends
          Bm
It's not only you,
     G            A             Bm
My heart jumps around when I'm eluded to
              G     A
This will not do 
             Bm          G      A 
Cause I was raised up to be admired,
        Bm  
to be noticed
      G               A
But when you're withdrawn,
          Bm
it's the closest thing  
       G           A          Bm
to assault when all eyes are on you
              G    A
This will not do

Bm - Bm - G - A
Bm - Bm - G - A
Bm - Bm - G - A
Bm - Bm - G - A

             Bm
I'm faking glory
         G             A
Lick my lips toss my hair
            Bm
And send a smile over
         G           A
And the story brand new
       Bm
I can take it from here,
      G        A       Bm    G   A
I'll find my own bravado

Chorus x2
D               
It's a switch flipped
It's a pill tipped back
                 Em
It's a moon eclipsed, oh
Bm                                                              A
And I can tell that, when the lights come on I'll be ready for this
D
It's in your bloodstream
                                   Em
A collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
Bm                                                      A
It's a marathon run or a mountain you scale without thinking of size
D
I was frightened of every little thing
                   Em     Bm
that I thought was out to get me down
                            A
To trip me up, and laugh at me,
    D
But I learned not to hold the quiet of the room
               Em       Bm
And the one around to find me out
                                                              
I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go, oh

Bravado

Pure Heroine 

I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I'm not proud of my address, in the torn up town
No post code envy

D                        
But every song's like gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room,
Cadd9                            G
We don't care, we're driving cadillacs in our dreams.
                      D
But everybody's like cristal, maybach, diamonds on your time piece.
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash.
Cadd9                      G
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair.
   

                   D
And we'll never be royals..
It don't run in our blood,
             Cadd9
That kind of lux just ain't for us.
            G
We crave a different kind of buzz.
                D
Let me be your ruler, you can call me queen bee
                Cadd9
And baby I'll rule I'll rule I'll rule I'll rule.
G
Let me live that fantasy.


D
My friends and I we've cracked the code.
We count our dollars on the train to the party.
And everyone who knows us knows that we're fine with this,
We didn't come from money.

D                        
But every song's like gold teeth, grey goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room,
Cadd9                            G
We don't care, we're driving cadillacs in our dreams.
                      D
But everybody's like cristal, maybach, diamonds on your time piece.
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash.
Cadd9                        G
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair.
 

                   D
And we'll never be royals..
It don't run in our blood,
             Cadd9
That kind of lux just ain't for us.
            G
We crave a different kind of buzz.
                D
Let me be your ruler, you can call me queen bee
                Cadd9
And baby I'll rule I'll rule I'll rule I'll rule.
G
Let me live that fantasy.

D     
Oooh ooooh ohhh
Cadd9                             G
We're bigger than we ever dreamed, and I'm in love with being queen.
D                    Cadd9
Oooooh ooooh ohhhhh life is game without a care
            G
We aren't caught up in your love affair.


                    D
And we'll never be royals..
It don't run in our blood,
             Cadd9
That kind of lux just ain't for us.
            G
We crave a different kind of buzz.
                D
Let me be your ruler, you can call me queen bee
                Cadd9
And baby I'll rule I'll rule I'll rule I'll rule.
G
Let me live that fantasy.

G                         Am                     F
Don't you think that it's boring how people talk
G                         Am                     F
Making smart with their words again, well I'm bored
                 G                             
Because I'm doing this for the thrill of it, killin' it
Am                                          F
Never not chasing a million things I want
            G
And I am only as young as the minute is full of it
Am                                                   F
Getting pumped up from the little bright things I bought
But I know they'll never own me
(Yeah)

Chorus:

G
Baby be the class clown
C                            Am
I'll be the beauty queen in tears
                                G
It's a new art form showing people how little we care (yeah)
F                 C                               G
We're so happy, even when we're smilin' out of fear
                                     Am
Let's go down to the tennis court, and talk it up like yeah (yeah)


(The rest just repeats and the bridge/end just repeat the 2nd half of the Chorus)

Tennis Court

Wait 'til you're announced
 
 
We've not yet lost all our graces
 
 
The hounds will stay in chains
 
 
Look upon your greatness
 
 
That you'll send
 
 
The call I'll send
 
 
 
C
   Call all the ladies out
   They're in their finally
 
Am
   A hundreds jewels on throats
 
G
   A hundred jewels between teeth
 
C
   Now bring my boys in
 
   Their skin in craters like the moon
 
Am                       G     
 The moon we love like a brother, while he glows through the room
 
 
 
    C
   Dancin' around the lies we tell
 
 
Dancin' around big eyes as well
 
 
Am                G
 Even the comatose   they don't dance and tell
 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
 
F                   Am
 We live in cities you'll never see on screen
 
G                         Em             Am
 Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run free
 
F             Am                            G
 Living in ruins   of the palace within my dreams
                                      F
 And you know, we're on each other's team
 
            
             Am                              G
I'm kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air, so there
 
 
So all the cups got broke shards beneath our feet but it wasn't my fault
 
 
And everyone's competing for a love they won't receive
 
 
'Cause what this palace wants is release
 
 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
 
F                   Am
 We live in cities you'll never see on screen
 
G                         Em             Am
 Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run free
 
F             Am                            G
 Living in ruins   of the palace within my dreams
 
                                      F
 And you know, we're on each other's team
 
 
 
 F             Am                             G
  I'm kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air
 
So there
 
 F            Am                     G
  I'm kinda older than I was when I rebelled without a care
 
So there
 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
 
F                   Am
 We live in cities you'll never see on screen
 
G                         Em             Am
 Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run free
 
F             Am                            G
 Living in ruins   of the palace within my dreams
                                      F
 And you know, we're on each other's team
 
F Am                                    G
     And you know, we're on each other's team
                         
                         F  Am
  We're on each other's team
                         
                         G
  We're on each other's team
                         
                                     F
And you know, and you know, and you know

Team

G                                         Em
There's a humming in the restless summer air
D                                         Am
And we're slipping off the course that we prepared
G                 Em
But in all chaos, there is calculation
D                 Am
Dropping glasses just to hear them break
G                                                  Em
You've been drinking like the world was gonna end (it didn't)
D                                                Am
Took a shiner from the fist of your best friend (go figure)
G                       Em
It's clear that someone's gotta go
D                     Am
We mean it but I promise we're not mean

[Pre-Chorus:]
G            Em
And the cry goes out (HaaaHaaa)
D           Am
They lose their minds for us
G             Em
And how it plays out (HaaHaa)

Now we're in the ring
D                  Am
And we're coming for blood

[Chorus:]
G                   Em
You could try and take us (oh-oh)
D                   Am
But we're the gladiators (Oh! Oh!)
G            Em
Everyone a rager (oh-oh)
D             Am
But secretly they're saviors
G              Em
Glory and gore go hand in hand
D              Am
That's why we're making headlines (Oh! Oh!)
G               Em
You could try and take us (oh-oh)
D               Am
But victory's contagious

[Verse 2:]     (Palm muted)
G                             Em
Delicate in every way but one (the swordplay)
D                                     Am
God knows we like archaic kinds of fun (the old way)
G                             Em
Chance is the only game I play with, baby
D                  Am
We let our battles choose us

[Pre-Chorus]
G            Em
And the cry goes out (HaaaHaaa)
D           Am
They lose their minds for us
G             Em
And how it plays out (HaaHaa)

Now we're in the ring
D                  Am
And we're coming for blood

[Chorus]
G                   Em
You could try and take us (oh-oh)
D                   Am
But we're the gladiators (Oh! Oh!)
G            Em
Everyone a rager (oh-oh)
D             Am
But secretly they're saviors
G              Em
Glory and gore go hand in hand
D              Am
That's why we're making headlines (Oh! Oh!)
G               Em
You could try and take us (oh-oh)
D               Am
But victory's contagious

[Bridge:]
G               Em         D               Am
No-one round here's good at keeping their eyes closed
G               Em         D               Am
The sun's starting to light up when we're walking home
G               Em         D               Am
Tired little laughs, gold-lie promises, we'll always win at this
G               Em         D               Am
I don't ever think about death
G               Em         D               Am
It's alright if you do, it's fine
G               Em         D               Am
We gladiate but I guess we're really fighting ourselves
G               Em         D               Am
Roughing up our minds so we're ready when the kill time comes
G               Em         D               Am
Wide awake in bed, words in my brain, 
G               Em         D               Am
"Secretly you love this do you even wanna go free?"
G               Em         D               Am
Let me in the ring, I'll show you what that big word means

[Chorus]
G                   Em
You could try and take us (oh-oh)
D                   Am
But we're the gladiators (Oh! Oh!)
G            Em
Everyone a rager (oh-oh)
D             Am
But secretly they're saviors
G              Em
Glory and gore go hand in hand
D              Am
That's why we're making headlines (Oh! Oh!)
G               Em
You could try and take us (oh-oh)
D               Am
But victory's contagious

Glory And Gore

[Verse 1]
C* (single strum)            G*     Am*
Today is my birthday and I'm riding high
C*                G*              Am*
Hair is dripping, hiding that I'm terrified
            C*              G*             Am*
But this is summer, playing dumber than in fall
C*                     G*              F*
Everything I say falls right back into everything

[Bridge 1]
    C                            G
I'm not in the swing of things

But what I really mean is
Am                         G*
Not in the swing of things yet

[Verse 2]
C
Riding around on the bikes, we're still sane
G
I won't be her, tripping over onstage
Am            F
Hey, it's all cool
  C
I still like hotels but I think that'll change
G
Still like hotels and my new-found fame
Am                      F
Hey, promise I can stay good

 G
(Everything feels right)
                                  F
I'm little but I'm coming for the crown

I'm little but I'm coming for you
 G
(Chase paper, get it)
                                  F
I'm little but I'm coming for the title
                       G
Held by everyone who's up

[Chorus]
C*
All work and no play
G*
Never made me lose it
Am*
All business, all day
F*        (G*)
Keeps me up a level
C*
All work and no play
G*                        Am*    F* G*
Keeps me on the new shit, yeah
C
All work and no play
G
Let me count the bruises
Am
All business, all day
F        (G)
Keeps me up a level
C
All work and no play
G                        Am    G
Lonely on that new shit, yeah, yeah

[Bridge 2]
     C                        G
Only bad people live to see
      Am                 F    (G)
Their likeness set in stone
     C                        G
Only bad people live to see
                      Am      G*
Their likeness set in stone

What does that make me?

[Bridge 1]
    C                            G
I'm not in the swing of things

But what I really mean is
Am                         F
Not in the swing of things yet
    C                            G
I'm not in the swing of things

But what I really mean is
Am                         F*    (G*)
Not in the swing of things yet

[Chorus]
C*
All work and no play
G*
Never made me lose it
Am*
All business, all day
F*        (G*)
Keeps me up a level
C*
All work and no play
G*                        Am*    G*
Keeps me on the new shit, yeah

Still Sane

Pure Heroine

Capo 1

(no chords)
I'm a princess cut from marble, smoother than a storm
And the scars that mark my body, they're silver and gold...


   D                   
My blood is a flood of rubies, precious stones
   C                                            Gm
It keeps my veins hot, the fires find a home in me
                                      C
I move through town, I'm quiet like a fire
       Gm                                  D
And my necklace is of rope, I tie it and untie it




        Gm
And our people talk to me, but nothing ever hits
   Bb                              F
So people talk to me, and all the voices just burn the holes
              Gm
I'm going in (whole)



                                Dm
This is the start of how it all ends
                                               F
They used to shout my name, now they whisper it
            
I'm speeding up and this is the
C                           Dm                       Gm
Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
                                  Dm
We rip the start, the colors disappear
                                                 F
I never watch the stars there's so much down here

So I just try to keep up with them
C                           Dm                       Gm
Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart

 

                                           C
I dream all year, but they're not the same kinds
        Gm                                             D
And the shivers move down my shoulder blades in double time




        Gm
And now people talk to me, I'm slipping out of reach now
Bb                                F
People talk to me, and all their faces blur bright, I got my
Gm                                           
Fingers laced together and I made a little prison
        F
And I'm locking up everyone who ever laid a finger on me
              Gm
I'm going in (whole)




                                Dm
This is the start of how it all ends
                                               F
They used to shout my name, now they whisper it
            
I'm speeding up and this is the
C                           Dm                       Gm
Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
                                  Dm
We rip the start, the colors disappear
                                                 F
I never watch the stars there's so much down here

So I just try to keep up with them
C                           Dm                       Gm
Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart, oh oh oh
                Dm
And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beat
                    F
Sparking up my heart, oh oh oh
                C                           Dm                   Gm
And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beat-beat-beat-beat, mmmm

Yellow Flicker Beat

[Intro]
F Am Dm Am Bb Dm Gm C

[Verse 1]
             F 
Baby really hurt me
                Am 
crying in the taxi
                Dm
He dont wanna know me
                         Am                     Bb     Dm
says you make the big mistake of dancing in my storm
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
Bb                  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                      Bb
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     Bb 
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     Bb 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave
       C            Dm            F    Bb       
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               Bb
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
            Bb    Dm
unitl youre gone
Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]
      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     Bb 
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     Bb 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave
       C            Dm            F    Bb       
I'm a little much for eh oh-na-na-na everyone

[Outro]
             Dm           F           Bb
They're gonna watch me disappear into the sun
                 Dm        F           Bb
You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun


Was messing around by ear and I think I got it right. I tried with a capo on the 4th fret but you don't really need it. Enjoy Lorde's new song!

Liability

[Verse 1]
               Am              Em                     G 
A couple rebel top gun pilots flying with nowhere to be, oh

We'll end up painted on the road, red and chrome
        Em                  G
All the broken glass sparkling, I guess we're partying

Homemade Dynamite

[Verse 1]
C                                           Em
  Well summer slipped us underneath her tongue
                       F                    Am
Our days and nights are perfumed with obsession
                                          G
Half of my wardrobe is on your bedroom floor
                                   
Use our eyes, throw our hands overboard

C                                      Em
  I am your sweetheart, psychopathic crush
                        F                     Am
Drink up your movements, still I can't get enough
                                G
I overthink your p-punctuation use

Not my fault, just a thing that my mind do


[Chorus 1]
  F      G             Am
A ru-u-u-ush at the beginning
             F     G                 Am
I get caught u-u-u-up, just for a minute
           F                                 G                              Am
But lover, you're the one to blame, all that you're doing, can you hear the violence?
    F       G               Am
Megapho-o-o-one to my chest
N.C.
Broadcast the boom, boom, boom, boom and make 'em all dance to it


[Post-Chorus 1]
F  G  Am                                 G
         Broadcast the boom, boom, boom, boom and make 'em all dance to it
F  G  Am                                 G
         Broadcast the boom, boom, boom, boom and make 'em all dance to it
F  G  Am                                 G
         Broadcast the boom, boom, boom, boom and make 'em all dance to it
F  G  Am                                 G
         Broadcast the boom, boom, boom, boom and make 'em all dance to it


[Verse 2]
C                                              Em
  Our thing progresses, I call and you come through
                        F                     Am
Blow all my friendships, to sit in hell with you
                                                 G
But we're the greatest, they'll hang us in the Louvre

Down the back, but who cares, still the Louvre

C                                                Em
  Okay I know that you are not my type (still I fall)
                                F                            Am 
I'm just the sucker who let you fill her mind (but what about love?)
                      G
Nothing wrong with it, supernatural
F                           G
  Just move in close to me, closer, you'll feel it coasting


[Chorus 2]

A ru-u-u-ush at the beginning
             F     G                 Am
I get caught u-u-u-up, just for a minute

But lover, you're the one to blame, all that you're doing, can you hear the violence?
    F       G               Am
Megapho-o-o-one to my chest
N.C.
Broadcast the boom, boom, boom, boom and make 'em all dance to it

Am
You asked if I was feeling it
C
I'm psycho high
 Dm                               F
Know you won't remember in the morning

When I speak my mind
Am
Lights are on and they've gone home
    C
But who am I?
G 
Oh how fast the evening passes
   Dm 
Cleaning up the champagne glasses

Am                     C
We told you this was melodrama
G 
(Oh how fast the evening passes
Dm
Cleaning up the champagne glasses)
Am                  C
Our only wish is melodrama
G
(Oh how fast the evening passes)
Dm
(Cleaning up the champagne glasses)

Am C Dm F G

Am
And the terror, and the horror
C 
Then we wonder why we bother

Wow, oh, wow
Am 
And the terror, and the horror
        C                   F         Dm G
Gotta wonder why we bother (Oh, oh-oh)
          Am 
All the glamour, and the trauma
           C               F          Dm G
And the fucking melodrama (Oh, oh-oh)
           Am 
All the gunfights, and the limelights
         C 
And the holy sick divine nights 
 F                                 Dm G
(Oh, Holy sick divine nights woah)
              Am 
They'll talk about us, all the lovers

How we kissed and killed each other (Oh)

How we kissed and killed each other (Oh)
               Dm G

We told you this was melodrama

You wanted something that we offered

Break the news, you're walking out
Em
To be a good man for someone else
D                                Em
Sorry I was never good like you
D
Stood on my chest and kept me down
Em
Hated hearing my name on the lips of a crowd
D                                 Em
Did my best to exist just for you

         D                      Am                   G
Bet you rue the day you kissed a writer in the dark
         D                      Am                   G

Now she's gonna play and sing and lock you in her heart

But in our darkest hours, I stumbled on a secret power

I'll find a way to be without you, babe

I still feel you, now and then

Slow like pseudo-ephedrine
D                                                    Em
When you see me, will you say I've changed?

I ride the subway, read the signs
Am
I let the seasons change my mind

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

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

You can run away boy, but you won't go far

Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

by the lights of the Palace Arcade

I know these roof top nights could last forever.
              A                            Bm
we watched the seasons change, we saw the distance pull us away,
           A
from all we shared together.

D                       A
Right now is all we have you better make this count

D                             A                             Bm

D                    A
I picked apart every word that you said
  Bm                              A
I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
D                         A
the way you are leaves me counting the days
        Bm                            A
till the next time this distance will be a memory

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.

Gonna Be A Long Time

It takes a while to get used to the rhythm. In the verse the
time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.

Fast Car

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.
