Placebo est un groupe de rock créé en 1994 aux accents mélancoliques et romantiques exacerbés.  Les tout premiers balbutiements du groupe se font entendre en 1994 à Deptford en Angleterre où Brian Molko et Steve Hewitt se réunissent pour jouer par intermittence dans les pubs et partager leurs infortunes. Brian ayant rencontré Stefan Olsdal, ancien camarade de classe à l'American School au Luxembourg, il lui propose d'assister à une des représentations et conquis, Stefan s'associe à Brian sous le nom d'Ashtray Heart pour composer tandis que Steve partage son activité entre Ashtray Heart...

Placebo es un grupo musical de rock alternativo creado en 1994 en Londres, Inglaterra.  Placebo fue formado cuando Brian Molko ,después de intentar entrar en la carrera de teatro, se encontró casualmente con Stefan Olsdal en la estación South Kensington del metro de Londres en 1994.

Verse 1:
Em                       C
It's that disease of the age
                          Am
It's that disease that we crave 
                        G
Alone at the end of the rave 
GMaj7                   Em
We catch the last bus home
Em                 C
Corporate America wakes
                   Am
Coffee republic in case
                          G
We open the latch on the gate
 GMaj7                        Em
Of the hole that we call our home 


Chorus:
Em                     C
Protect me from what I want
                       Am
Protect me from what I want
                       G

# Verse 2: (same chords in verse 1)
Maybe we're victims of fate
Remember when we'd celebrate
We'd drink and get high until late
And now we're all alone
Wedding bells ain't gonna chime
With both of us guilty of crime
And both of us sentenced to time
And now we're all alone


Repeat Chorus 3x

Protect Me From What I Want

This Picture is a single by alternative rock band Placebo. Released in July 2003, it was lifted from their album Sleeping with Ghosts.  &quot;This Picture&quot; was remixed by Junior Sanchez for the bonus remix CD of &quot;Once More with Feeling (album)&quot;.  It tells the story of a relationship involving sadomasochism and an abusive female in a position of dominance. In the lyrics, the phrase &quot;ashtray girl&quot; is meant to refer to a woman who uses her partner as an &quot;emotional ashtray&quot;; &quot;cigarette burns on my chest&quot; makes reference to a supposed particular fetish of James Dean.

Special Needs

Sleeping with Ghosts is the title cut from Placebo's fourth album, Sleeping with Ghosts. The song is a depiction of how, "Soulmates never die," or in more simple terms, how true friendships/relationships never end, linking it with the album's concept of relationships. The song's composition is softer compared to the other songs of the album, it features lighter, slower guitar and more piano than other titles. The chorus line, "Soulmates never die," was used as the title for the live DVD, Soulmates Never Die (Live in Paris 2003). Read more on Last.fm.

One last thing before I shuffle off the planet
I will be the one to make you crawl

One more thing before we start the final face off
I will be the one to watch you fall
C                                   Dm
so I came down crash and burn your beggars banquet

Leave me dreaming on the bed,

See you right back here tomorrow, for the next round

Swelling goes down

And if you're ever around
                       Am            G 
In the city or the suburbs of this town
                     F 
Be sure to come around
                       Am 
I'll be wallowing in sorrow 
              G                      F
Wearing a frown, like pierrot the clown...

C
Saw you crashing around the bay 
                       Am
Never seen you act so shallow 
                   G
Or look so... brown 
C
Remember all the things you'd say 
                        Am
How your promises went hollow 
                         G
As you threw me to the ground 
                          F
And if you're ever around 
                             Am            G 
In the backstreets or the alleys of this town
                       F 
Be sure to come around 
                       Am             
Ill be wallowing in pity 
              G                       F
Wearing a frown, like pierrot the clown...

C
When I dream 
Am                G 
I dream of your lips 
C
When I dream 
Am                G
I dream of your kiss 
C
When I dream 
Am                G
I dream Of your fists
        F
Your fists... your fists...


C                     
Leave me dreaming on the bed,
                          Am                    G
See you right back here tomorrow, for the next round 
C
Keep that scene inside your head 
                         Am
As the bruises turn to yellow 
                  G
Swelling goes down 
                       F
And if you're ever around
                       Am            G 
In the city or the suburbs of this town
                     F 
Be sure to come around
                       Am 
I'll be wallowing in sorrow 
              G                      F
Wearing a frown, like pierrot the clown...
Like pierrot the clown...
Like pierrot the clown...
Like pierrot the clown...
Like pierrot the clown...

Song To Say Goodbye

Intro [ Em D C B ]

          Em 
There are twenty years to go
      D
And twenty ways to know
        C                    B
Who'll wear, who'll wear the hat

           Em
There are twenty years to go
     D
The best of all I hope
C
Enjoy the ride
    B
The medicine show

 Em
Thems the breaks
          D
For we designer fakes
                C                              B
We need to concentrate on more than meets the eye

           Em
There are twenty years to go
      D
The faithful and the low
      C                                B
The best of starts, the broken heart, the stone

            Em
There are twenty years to go
       D
The punch drunk and the blow
      C                            B
The worst of starts, the mercy part, the phone

    Em
And thems the breaks
         D
For we designer fakes
    C                                       B
We need to concentrate on more than meets the eye

   Em
Thems the breaks
          D
For we designer fakes
         C                                     B
But it's you i take, cause you're the truth, not I

          Em
There are twenty years to go
    D
A golden age I know
     C                               B
But all will pass will end too fast you know

          Em
There are twenty years to go
     D
And many friends I hope
 C                        
Though some may hold the rose
              B
Some hold the rope

  Em                              
That's the end - and that's the start of it
  D
That's the whole - and that's the part of it
  C
That's the high - and that's the heart of it
  B
That's the long - and that's the short of it
 Em
That's the best - and that's the test in it
 D
That's the doubt - the doubt, the trust in it
 C
That's the sight - and that's the sound of it
 B
That's the gift - and that's the trick in it

Em

D                      C  B                     Em
You're the truth, not I, you're the truth, not I
D                      C  B                     Em
You're the truth, not I, you're the truth, not I
D                      C  B                     Em
You're the truth, not I, you're the truth, not I
D                      C  B                     Em
You're the truth, not I, You're the truth, not I.

Dm                A#
I will battle for the sun
  Dm                A#
And I won't stop until I'm done
  Dm                A#
You are getting in the way
  Dm                A#
And I have nothing left to say

  Dm                A#
I will brush off all the dirt
  Dm                A#
And I will pretend it didn't hurt

You are a black and heavy weight

And I will not participate

No falling

You are a cheap and nasty fake

You are the birth and you are waste
C                           Am
You are the one who took my place
C                      Am
You took a jump into forever
C                         Am
A leap of faith I could not take

And it was
F                         G
A leap of faith I could not take

C                     Am
We were alone before we met
C                           Am
No more forlorn than one could get
C                             Am
How could we know we have found treasure?
C                   Am
How sinister and how correct

And it was
F                           G
A leap of faith I could not take

I tore the muscle from your chest

And used it to stub out cigarettes
G                             F
I listened to your screams of pleasure
G                          F      C
Now watched the bed sheets turn blood red

Taste me every time you cry

This memory will fade away and die

Just for today, breathe me and say goodbye

Turn away, when you see me walking by

Once in a while

This melody will fade away and die

My computer thinks I'm gay

I threw that piece of junk away

on the champs-Elysees 
as I was walking home. 
Gm                             F 
this is my last communique

down the supper highway 
                               D# 
all that I have left to say 
in a single tome, I got: 
Bb

I'll never be there for

If I could give it all away

will it come back to me someday 
                           D#
like a needle in the hay

But I got a reason to declaim 
                                   D#
the applications are to blame 
                                     D#
for all my sorrow an my pain 
a feeling so alone, I got:

What's the difference anyway 
                                        D#
when all that people do all day 
is staring to a phone, I got:

I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own


            F                    C                G

Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me

Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
