What do you call a female Brooklyn songwriter with a smarmy, witty lyrical edge, a band that plays as if they'd just stepped out of the Brill Building, and a voice that's got the squeaky charm of Gwen Stefani's? Howabout: the next Lily Allen.   

# To imitate the piano at certain points, added a little tablature 
# at the end of certain lines, annotated "(tab)." Basically keep 
# holding the "F" chord, and strum the C/E/A strings in order. 
# Follow the tab with a single strum of C. Tab:
A|---0-|
E|--1--|
C|-0---|
G|-----|
# At "from my broken heart," each not (Bb,Bbm,F,C) is 4 beats, 
# and you start "heart" on the 3rd beat of Bbm.

Verse:
            F
I know its over
                                   C
My heart will never know another lover
   C7                              F    (tab)  C/
We two shall never share another breath
             F
My will has faded
                                     C
This longing, it's an unrelenting torture 
    C7                       F
Oh mercy take me now to my beloved

Chorus:
Bb                  Bbm               F
You were the thrill that stilled my beating heart, baby
                                C      C7
You are the one I'll dream the most
                          C            C7
But if I cannot have the real thing
                              F
I'll gladly settle for your ghost

Bridge:
Am           Bb
And you can haunt these halls all you want
    Bbm
And if I ever leave
        F    C       F  (tab) C/
I will take you with me

Instrumental verse:
F - C - C7 - F
Da da da da...


Verse:
Bb    Bbm         F
This thing that beats
Bb                     Bbm      F
Is the one thing that keeps us apart
Bb                     Bbm
Well they say to say goodbye
          F      A    Dm
But I'd surely rather die
        Bb  Bbm    F    C
From my bro-ken heart

Chorus:
Bb             Bbm                    F
You were the thrill that stilled my beating heart, baby
                            C        C7
You are the one I'll dream the most
                           C         C7
But if I cannot have the real thing
                              F    (tab) C/
I'll gladly settle for your ghost
                              F
I'll gladly settle for your ghost

Verse:
D
They've called the doctors 
Gm
Today's the day 
D 
I've lost it finally 
              A 
And they're putting me away
     D
I'm sure I won't be quite the same 
Gm
So before I go 
D              A              D    A
I wanted, oh I wanted you to know

Chorus 1:
D                            A
That a million men in their bright white jackets 
Em                     A
Could never erase you from my mind 
     D
But when they bring me back to you
     A
And tell you that I'm shiny new 
     Em
The girl that you see 
          Gm                      D
May not be me behind these eyes anymore

Verse:
D
I've never loved another 
         Gm
As I've loved you and do still 
        D
But I wonder when they're through with me 
    A
I wonder if I will 
     D
So remember things I've said to you 
    Gm
And say them back to me 
     D             A               D    A
And maybe you can rescue me from lunacy

Chorus 2:
           D                   A
And let million men in their bright white jackets 
Em                        A
Try to erase you from my mind 
     D
But when they bring me back to you

And tell you that I'm shiny new

The girl that you see

May not be me behind theses eyes anymore

Bridge:
            Gm
Oh they're making me. They're making me 
Dm
Take these awful pills 
A
Assuring me they're curing me 
   Dm
Of all my evil ills 
                   Gm
They say they're saving me. They're saving me
Dm
So they'll have me think 
       A
I was fine before they got to me 
                                   Dm      Gm  A
But now I'm on the brink of utter madness

Today's the day 
      D
I've lost it finally

And they're putting me away 
       D
They tried to steal my thoughts 
              Gm
And all my memories of you 
             D              A               D     A
But I clung tight to them because I always knew

Chorus 3:

Verse:
D
You've been far...

----------G 
all this time my heart's been breaking 

------Gm
just waiting round and aching 

---------D
for a letter or a telegram 

A
telling me how sweet i am 

G
swear your heart will never roam 

--Gm
so til you come back home 


Chorus:
D
i'll wear your colors...

-----------G
next to the one who adores you 

-----Gm
whose heart is beating for you 

-------D
like a lighthouse guides a shipwrecked sailor 

A
safely from the sea

G
i'll wear your colors til you 

A
come back home to me

Verse 1:

Am                  A6
If you dig under my feet
                              Riff
you will find things that you don't want to see
Am                           A6
things that i hide deep down inside
  Riff             Am                             A6
a menagerie of the tragedy i caused and all of my flaws
       Riff           Am
and my demons are all that can see
A6                        Am           Am A6 Am                
then what would you do ...if you only knew


Chorus:

Am                          A6
all of the things that I've done
                            Dm
terrible things...you would never believe
Am               A6
things that I've done

Oh how you'll run
       Dm
if you knew a single one
Am         A6               Am A6 Am
all of the things that I've done

Verse 2:

Am                    A6
Would my face give me away

but i know it wont
        Riff
cause i don't even feel
Am                      A6
i just reflect what you expect
       Riff
so you don't suspect that...
Am         A6            Am A6 Am
i could be exactly who i am

[chorus]

Bridge:

Dm
I know that I'm inflected
Am
but who could have predicted
Dm                     E
that monster that I've become
Dm
i keep things carefully covered
Am
so no one will discover
Dm
that i could be the culprit
A6                        E
I'm sorry i cant help it

[chorus]

Songs For A Sinking Ship

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,

by the lights of the Palace Arcade

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

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.

ooh you're overreacting

(you can change your mind)
E D                A
ooh you're overreacting

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.
