New York State Of Mind

&quot;Uptown Girl&quot; is a song performed by musician Billy Joel, whose lyrics deal with a working-class &quot;downtown man&quot; attempting to woo a wealthy &quot;uptown girl&quot;.   According to the Uptown Girl Songfacts, Joel explained to Howard Stern that he was on vacation in the Caribbean when he was playing the piano, looked up, and saw Elle McPherson, Christie Brinkley and Whitney Houston  (who was more a model than a musician at that point) standing over his piano in wonderment watching him play. Joel thanked his creator for his good fortune, and began dating Elle.

&quot;Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)&quot; is a song written and recorded by Billy Joel. The track details the singer's disgust with the upwardly-mobile bourgeois aspirations of working and lower-middle class New Yorkers who take pride at working long hours in order to afford the outward signs of having &quot;made it&quot;. Joel considers their rejection of their working-class roots (trading a Chevy for a Cadillac  and buying a house in Hackensack, New Jersey) to be ultimately futile; in the end, the rewards are a &quot;heart attack&quot; or &quot;a broken back&quot;.

Dm                   Gm 
Anthony works in the grocery store
C                      F
savin' his pennies for someday
Dm                Gm
Mama Leone left a note on the door,
         C                       F
she said "Sonny, move out to the country"
Dm                              Gm          
workin' too hard can give you a heart attack
Bb                   C
you ought to know by now
Dm                       Gm
who needs a house out in Hackensack?
   C                           F
Is that what you get with your money?
   Bb                    C
It seems such a waste of time
C7 A                     Dm
if that's what it's all about
   Bb                    A7         Dm
if that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.

Seargent O'Leary is walkin' the beat
at night he becomes abartender
he works at Mister Cacciatore's down
on Sulliven Street
across from the medical center
he's tradin' in his Chevy for a Cadillac
you ought to know by now
and if he can't drive with a broken back
at least he can polish the fenders.
It seems such awaste of time
if that's what it's all about
if that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.

You should never argue with a crazy mind
you ought to know by now
you can pay Uncle Sam with the overtime
is that all you get for your money?
It seems such awaste of time
if that's what it's all about
if that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.

Movin' Out (anthony's Song)

A song written by Billy Joel when he began writing for the Piano Man album. One day during these compositions he was sitting in his apartment in Oyster Bay, Long Island and then looking out the window for an inspiration. His inspiration was found outside his window when he saw a housing project and he witnessed suburban teens going into the house project to obtain heroin from a notorious dealer by the name of &quot;Captain Jack&quot;.

Captain Jack

&quot;Piano Man&quot; was Billy Joel's first major hit and is considered Joel's signature song. The verses of the song are sung from the point of view of a bar piano player who focuses mainly on everyone else at the bar: John the bartender, the waitress, and bar regulars like Paul and Davy. Most of these characters have unfulfilled dreams, and the pianist's job, it seems, is to help them &quot;forget about life for a while&quot;.

Piano Man

It&#8217;s Still Rock and Roll To Me
By:  Billy Joel

[C] What's the matter with the [Em] clothes I'm wearing
Can't you [Bb] tell that your tie's too [F] wide
[C] Maybe I should buy some [Em] old tab collars
Welcome [Bb] back to the age of [F] jive

[Em] Where have you been hidin' [Am] out lately honey
You [Em] can't dress trashy 'til you [D7] spend a lot of [G] money
[C] Everybody's [Em] talkin' 'bout the [Bb] new sound
[F] Funny but it's [Am] still rock and [G] roll to [C] me

[C] What's the matter with the [Em] car I'm driving
Can't you [Bb] tell that it's out of [F] style
[C] Should I get a set of [Em] white wall tires
Are you [Bb] gonna cruise the miracle [F] mile

[Em] Nowadays you can't be [Am] too sentimental
Your [Em] best bet's a true baby [D7] blue Conti[G]nental
[C] Hot funk [Em] cool punk [Bb] even if it's [F] old junk
It's [Am] still rock and [G] roll to [C] me

[G] Oh it doesn't matter what they [F] say in the papers
'Cause it's [E7] always been the same old [Am] scene
[G] There's a new band in town but you [F] can't get the sound
From a [E7] story in a maga[Ab]zine [Eb] aimed at your average [F] teen [G7]

[C] How about a pair of [Em] pink sidewinders
And a [Bb] bright orange pair of [F] pants
[C] You could be a really [Em] Beau Brummel baby
If you just [Bb] give it half a [F] chance

[Em] Don't waste your money on a [Am] new set of speakers
You [Em] get more mileage from a [D7] cheap pair of [G] sneakers
[C] Next phase [Em] new wave [Bb] dance craze [F] anyways
It's [Am] still rock and [G] roll to [C] me

[C] What's the matter with the [Em] crowd I'm seeing
Don't you [Bb] know that they're out of [F] touch
[C] Should I try to be a [Em] straight 'A' student
If you [B] are then you think too [F] much

[Em] Don't you know about the [Am] new fashion honey
[Em] All you need are looks and a [D7] whole lotta [G] money
It's the [C] next phase [Em] new wave [Bb] dance craze [F] anyways
It's [Am] still rock and [G] roll to [C] me

[C] Everybody's [Em] talkin' 'bout the [Bb] new sound
[F] Funny but it's [Am] still rock and [G] roll to [C] me

D                                             G
Got a call from an old friend we'd used to be real close
A                                   D
Said he couldn't go on the American way
                                                        G
Closed the shop, sold the house, bought a ticket to the west coast

I never said you had to offer me a second chance
D7                             E9
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
G            D
I still belong
F#           Bm
Don't get me wrong
E9
And you can speak your mind

But not on my time

{Fill}

Verse 3:
D                                             G
They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place
A                                               D
Then they'll tell you can't sleep with somebody else
                                         G
Ah but sooner or later you sleep in your own space

Either way it's O.K. you wake up with yourself

If you said goodbye to me tonight.   There would still be music left to write.
E7             Am      G7         C      C7    
What else could I do?  I'm so inspired by you.

That hasn't happened for the longest time.

I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall.    And the greatest miracle of all,
E7          Am        G7             C      C7     
  is how I need you.   And how you  needed me too.

Maybe this won't last very long,  but you feel so right, and I could be wrong.
Em              Am              
Maybe I've been hoping too hard,
   D              D7           G           G7

Who knows how much further we'll go on.  Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone.
E7             Am       G7           C      C7        
 I'll take my chances, I forgot how nice romance is.

I haven't been there for the longest time.

I had second thoughts at the start.  I said to myself hold on to your heart.
Em             Am                   
Now I know the woman that you are.  
      D            D7           G           G7

I don't care what consequence it brings. I have been a fool for lesser things.
E7         Am          G7           C        C7        
   I want you so bad,  I think you ought to know that 
F           Dm               G       C     
I intend to hold you for the longest time.

I might as well be the one 

     F                       C           Am
They showed you a statue and told you to pray
     F                     G           C
They built you a temple and locked you away 
    F                       C                  Am
But they never told you the price that you pay
    F                          G
For things that you might have done

                      C     F            G
For only the good die young that's what I said

Only the good die young only the good die young 

              F                   C        Am   
You might have heard I run with a dangerous crowd 
   F                   G        C
We ain't too pretty we ain't too proud 
   F                  G        Am
We might be laughing a bit too loud 
    F                  G   
But that never hurt no one 

   F                C         Am
So come on Virginia show me a sign 
 F                    G              C
Send up a signal I'll throw you the line
    F                            C        Am 
The stained-glass curtain you're hiding behind 
 F                G
Never lets in the sun

                          C     F    G
Darlin' only the good die young whoa oh 
         C        F                  G     C       
Only the good die young only the good die young 

           G                       F                 C
You got a nice white dress and a party on your confirmation 
           D                   F
You got a brand new soul and a cross of gold 
       G                           F                C

You didn't count on me when you were counting on your rosary

Oh oh oh

And they say there's a heaven for those who will wait 
 F                      G         C
Some say it's better but I say it ain't
           F                           G            Am 
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints

The sinners are much more fun...

For only the good die young that's what I say

Give you was a reputation

She never cared for me but did she ever say a prayer for me?

Well we're living here in Allentown

Out in Bethlehem they're killing time

Filling out forms

Standing in line.

Well our fathers fought the Second World War

Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore
        Em             A Bm  A
Met our mothers at the USO
A             Em  
Asked them to dance

Danced with them slow

And we're living here in Allentown.
        F                G      C

For the promises our teachers gave
A            Em
If we worked hard
D       A    A7
If we behaved.

       Em          A           D
So the graduations hang on the wall

But they never really helped us at all
        Em              A        Bm
No they never taught us what was real
A       Em
Iron or coke,

Chromium steel.

And we're waiting here in Allentown.

To get at least as far as their old man got.
F                            G           F
If something happened on the way to that place

I said to myself

I have been a fool for lesser things

I want you so bad

I think you ought to know that

I intend to hold you for the longest time

Moody, atmospheric, and perhaps one of the greatest saxophone breaks of all time! Billy Joel at his best.

OUTRO:  Eb6  Ab  C/D  Db13#11  D/C

One of the few Billy Joel tracks with no keyboard of any  kind.  Heavy with a thumping bass and drums, it's carried by electric guitars, and Mr. Joel's bad-boy-rocker vocals.  If you've never heard it, you might think you were listening to Southside Johnny and The Asbury Jukes.  

A
friday night i crashed your party,    

saturday i said i'm sorry
                                 E
sunday came and trashed me out again.
           Bm 
i was only having fun,   
                G
wasn't hurting anyone
             E   
and we all enjoyed the 
                 A        
weekend for a change.

                        
i've been stranded 
in the combat zone, 
i walked through bedford sty alone
even rode my motorcycle in the rain.
and you told me not to drive,   
but i made it home alive
so you said that only proves that i'm insane.

chorus:
                 E
you may be right,   
               A
i may be crazy
            E               D
but it just may be a lunatic 
               F#m         A 
you're looking for
                   E
turn out the light,
                    A
don't try to save me
                         D       E                              
you may be wrong for all i know, 
                     A      
but you may be right. 

                                
remember how i found you there, 
alone in your electric chair
i told you dirty jokes until you smiled.
you were lonely for a man,   
i said take me as i am
cause you might enjoy 
some madness for a while.


now think of all the years you tried 
to find some one to satisfy you
i might be as crazy as you say.
if i'm crazy then it's true,   
that it's all because of you
and you wouldn't want me any other way.

You May Be Right

F              C
In every heart there is a room

                      G
A sanctuary safe and strong

              F                C
To heal the wounds from lovers past

                 G      C
Until a new one comes along


          F                C
I spoke to you in cautious tones

                           G
You answered me with no pretense

            F              C
And still I feel I said too much

                 G      C
My silence is my self defense

And So It Goes

"Honesty" was solely written by Billy Joel while production was handled by Phil Ramone. It is the second song from his sixth studio album 52nd Street (1978). The song was also included on South Korean and Japanese edition of Joel's 1985 compilation Greatest Hits Volume 2 as one of the bonus tracks. The song wasn't included on any of Joel's US released compilation packages; however, it appears on the Dutch edition as well as the  Japanese edition of Greatest Hits Volume 2, instead of "Don't Ask Me Why" (1980).

F-Fm-C#maj7-C7

F                 A#        C                Am7
If you search for tenderness it isn't hard to find
A#               Dm                Em  Gm7-C-C7   
You can have the love you need to live
F                  G                      C               A
And if you look for truthfulness you might just as well be blind
   A#              E             A
It always seems to be so hard to give

Chorus:

A#maj7   C7  A                Dm7  C
Honest-  y   is such a lonely word
A#          C       F    A
Everyone is so untrue
A#maj7   C7  A               Dm7
Honest-  y   is hardly ever heard
A#                C           F  F9sus
But mostly what I need from you


F           A#           C                 Am7
I can always find someone to say they sympathize
A#           Dm              Em     Gm7-C-C7
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
F                    G              C                 A
But I don't want some pretty face to tell me pretty lies
A#            E               A
All I want is someone to believe

Chorus:

A#maj7   C7  A                Dm7  C
Honest-  y   is such a lonely word
A#          C       F    A
Everyone is so untrue
A#maj7   C7  A               Dm7
Honest-  y   is hardly ever heard
A#                C           F  F9sus
But mostly what I need from you

Bridge:

Dm                  A
I can find a lover, I can find a friend
C7                            G
I can have security until the bitter end
A#         C         C7    A#           F
Anyone can comfort me with promises again

When I want sincerity tell me where else can I turn?

Cause you're the one that I depend upon

Brenda and Eddie were the popular steadies
        D                             D C
And the king and the queen of the prom
G                      G/B                  C
Riding around with the car top down and the radio on
G                 D    D C
Nobody looked any finer
       G                    C
Or was more of a hit at the Parkway Diner
G                      F                          E
We never knew we could want more than that out of life
       Am         Am/B        C           D         G
Surely Brenda and Eddie would always know how to survive

Brenda and Eddy were still going steady in the summer of seventy five
G                     G/B                      C
When they decided the marriage would be at the end of July
G                       D     D C
Everyone said they were crazy
G                           C
Brenda you know that you're much too lazy
G                   F                         E
Eddie could never afford to live that kind of life

Oh, but there we were waving Brenda and Eddie goodbye

Well, they got an apartment with deep pile carpet

And a couple of paintings from Sears
  C
A big waterbed that they bought with the bread
         D                     G
They had saved for a couple of years
     C
They started to fight when the money got tight
         D                        Em         Am

Well, they lived for a while in a very nice style
         D                         G
But it's always the same in the end
     C
They got a divorce as a matter of course
         D                            G
And they parted the closest of friends

Then the king and the queen went back to the green

Brenda and Eddie had had it already by the summer of seventy five
         G                      G/B
From the high to the low to the end of the show
        C
For the rest of their lives
     G                       D       D C
They couldn't go back to the greasers
    G                           C
The best they could do was pick up their pieces
G                         F                      E
We always knew they would both find a way to get by
Am           Am/B        C          D
That's all I heard about Brenda and Eddie
Am             Am/B         C          D
Can't tell you more cause I told you already

Well we all have a face
        Am           Em
That we hide away forever
       Am                C7

Why were you so surprised

That you never saw the stranger

Once I used to believe

I was such a great romancer

Then I came home to a woman

When I pressed her for a reason

Though we share so many secrets
          D                  B7
There are some we never tell
         Em 
Why were you so surprised
         Am            Em
That you never saw the stranger
        Am            D
Did you ever let your lover see
    Bm              Em
The stranger in yourself?


Bm*       Bb#5          D*
Don't be afraid to try again
D7            Bm*   Bb            D*    D  D7     
Everyone goes south every now and then, oh oh
Bm*             Bb#5              D*
You've done it, why can't someone else?
D7                 Bm* Bb#5                  D    Bm
You should know by now you've been there yourself


        Em
You may never understand
        Am             Em
How the stranger is inspired
       Am           C7
But he isn't always evil
       D                  B7
And he is not always wrong
           Em
Though you drown in good intentions
         Am               Em
You will never quench the fire
            Am           D
You'll give in to your desire
         Bm              Em  C7  Em  C7  Em  C7  Em
When the stranger comes along

The Stranger

A7          D              A7             D
1)      She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes.
                          G              Bm     G
        She can ruin your faith with her casual lies.
                A7     D              A7           F#
        And she only reveals what she wants you to see.
            Bm                            G        A7       D
        She hides like a child, but she's always a woman to me.


                Bm    E7                     A      F#m
CHORUS :        Ohhh... she takes care of herself.
                        D           G    Em       A7          D
                She can wait if she wants, she's ahead of her time.
                Dm              G7          C     Am
                Ohhh... and she never gives out,
                                    Bb E         E7          A
                and she never gives in, she just changes her mind.


2)      She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you.
        She can ask for the truth, but she'll never believe.
        And she'll take what you give her as long it's free.
        She steals like a thief, but she's always a woman to me.

CHORUS

3)      And she'll promise you more than the garden of Eden.
        Then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleeding.
        But she brings out the best and the worst you can be.
        Blame it all on yourself 'cause she's always a women to me.

CHORUS

4)      She's frequently kind and she's suddenly cruel.
        She can do as she pleases, she's nobody's fool.
        But she can't be convicted, she's earned her degree.
        And the most she will do is throw shadows at you,
                but she's always a woman to me.

CHORUS

She's Always A Woman

                  G                        G
In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep
                      C                   D
from the mountains of faith to a river so deep
                      G                            G
I must be looking for something something sacred I lost
                 C                         D
But the river is wide and it's too hard to cross


Em                          D
And even thought I knew the river is wide
            C                   Am
I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore
Em                      D
And try to cross to the opposite side
         Am                              D
So I can finally find out what I've been looking for


                     G                        G
In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep
                       C                  D
Through the  valley of fear to a river so deep
                            G                          G
And I've been searching for something taken away of my soul
                        C                       D
Something I would never lose something somebody stole


Em                    D
I don't know why I go walking at night
            C                 Am
But now I'm tired and I don't walk anymore
Em                         D
I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life
        Am                        D
Until I find what it is I've been looking for


                     G                         G
In the middle of the night  I go walking in my sleep
                      C                   D
Through the jungle of doubt to a river so deep
                         G                      G
I know I'm searching for something something so undefined
                    C                     D
That it only can be seen by the eyes of a blind

                     G
In the middle of the night


Em                            D
I'm not sure about life after this
          C                 Am
god knows I've never been a spiritual man
Em                      Am
Babtized by the fire, I wade into the river
     Am              D
That turns to be the promised land


                     G                        G
In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep
                      C                   D
Through the desert of truth to a river so deep
                      G                         G
We're all land in the ocean we all start in the streams
                  C                     D
We're all carried along by the river of dreams

                     G
In the middle of the night

River Of Dreams

In the beginning
                Bb           C
there was the cold and the night
                Gm
Prophets and angels
             C             F
gave us the fire and the light
            Dm
Man was triumphant
                A dim          Bb  B dim
Armed with the faith and the will
                 Bb     F            C
That even the darkest ages couldn't kill

            F
Too many kingdoms
          Bb            C
Too many flags on the field
           Gm
So many battles
          C             F
So many wounds to be healed
            Dm
Time is relentless
          Adim     Bb  Bdim
Only true love perseveres

It's been a long time and now I'm with you

After two thousand years

              F
This is our moment
                Bb         C
Here at the crossroads of time
               Gm
We hope our children
            C              F
Carry our dreams down the line
                Dm
they are the vintage

What kind of life will they live?
            Bb          F              C
Is this a curse or a blessing that we give?

              F
Sometimes I wonder
           Bb          C
Why are we so blind to Fate?
            Gm
Without compassion
	     C         F
there can be no end to hate
     	    Dm
No end to sorrow
 	      Adim         Bb  Bdim
caused by the same endless fears
              Bb        F	       Dm
Why can't we learn from all we've been through
          C	          F
after two thousand years?

		 F
There will be miracles
	   Bb 	       C
after the last war is won
	     Gm
Science and poetry
	    C            F
Rule in the new world to come
	       Dm
Prophets and angels
	    dim      Bb Bdim
gave us the power to see
	   Bb 	F	          C
what an amazing future there will be

	      F
And in the evening
	   Bb 	        C
after the fire and the light
		Gm
One thing is certain
	    C	          F
nothing can hold back the night
	    Dm
Time is relentless
	   Adim   Bb  Bdim
and as the past disappears
	     F        Bb         Dm
We're on the verge of all things new

We are two thousand years

Two Thousand Years

Bb                               Gm               C7/G
Laura calls me in the middle of the night
C7              Ebm7
Passes on her     painful information
Bb                            Bb/A                   Gm             C7/G
Then these careless fingers, they get caught in her vice
C7                               F#7
Til they're bleeding on my coffee table

Chorus:

B7                        F7                    Gm 
Living alone isn't all that it's cracked up to be
F#7
Oh whoa whoa
B7                        F7                     Gm 
I'm on her side, why does she push the poison on me?
F#7          B*    Bb
Oh whoa whoa whoa whoa

(*First chorus only)

Verse:
Laura has a very hard time
All her life has been one long disaster
Then she tells me she suddenly believes she's seen a very good sign
She'll be taking some aggressive action

Chorus:
I fight her wars while she's slamming her doors in my face
Oh whoa whoa
Failure to break was the only mistake that she made
Oh whoa whoa

Bridge:

Db                               Eb7
Here I am feeling like a fucking fool
Ebdim/A                Ab                 Db    
Do I react the way exactly she intends me to?
Db                            Db /F                      Eb7
Every time I think I'm off the hook she makes me lose my cool
                  Ebdim/A                Ab
I'm her machine and she can punch all the keys
                    Ebdim/A                F
And she can push any button I was programmed through

Verse:
Laura calls me when she needs a good fix
All her questions will get sympathetic 
Answers I should be so immunized to all of her tricks
She's surviving on her second chances

Laura

Desnudar el sin razón

Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser

Culpable o inocente, malviviente o juez.
O quien con sólo su firma decreta la ley.
Pronucleares informistas modelan la situación.
Más tecnología, por más energía.
Fuga radiactiva de progreso.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser.

Derrame de combustible, exterminio forestal.
El motor contaminante no se detendrá.
Para ser hay otro día en el planeta inferior.
Como cualquier día, como todo día
Con o sin mi reflexión.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser.

Vender, comprar.
Comer, cagar.
Morir, nacer.

Sufrir, gozar.
Odiar, amar.
Ser o no ser.

Beautiful Girls

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

Donde hay numeros en vez de acordes es porque no se
como se llaman esos acordes y pongo abajo como se hacen




F9/A Cm
Ya no sé donde fue,
F9/A C
con su luz tu verdad,
F9/A Cm
avanzar y no avanzar,
1 G
que loco remolino,

ya no ves . . .

ya no ves . . .

la maldad que hay allí . . .

solo estás en tu cruz,

oh déjame explorarte,
F4 C
solo extiéndete una vez más . . .
F4 C
extiéndete una vez más . . .

la canción de la sed,

como el agua se nos fue . . .

líbrame . . .

Oh! líbrame . . .

Líbrame de la galaxia

ya no ves . . .

ya no ves

lo que ya sé nos pasó

respirar y oxidar,

y olvidarse y no fumar . . .

solo extiéndete una vez más . . .

exiténdete una vez más . . .

extiendete una vez más

extiendete una vez más

Nota: C B y
Am 2
eres mi esperanza
Am 3
solo una grieta en mi existir . . .
4
no somos solo hombres
5 6 7
y como fondo un cielo.

no es solo un burro,

que es un ángel de fe,

tal vez

me sentirás tal vez

me sentirás

las aguas en tus ojos

vibran su dulce brillo

una piel y una flor

son tus pechos,

que no piensan menos mal,

oh por favor,

gira loca girasol . . .

déjame como estoy,

ya te amé y allí morí,

quédate quédate oh!

déjame explicarte,

solo extiéndete una vez más . . .

extiéndete una vez más . . .

eres mi esperanza,

solo una grieta en mi existir . . .

no somos solo cuerpos,

y como un fondo un cielo . . .

no es solo un burro,

que es un ángel de fe

tal vez me sentirás

tal vez me sentirás

C
Working the village shop
E
Putting a poster up
Am
Dreaming of anything
C              Am               Em               Dm
Dreaming of the time when you're free from all the trouble you're in

C
In the mud, on your knees
E
Trying hard not to please
Am
Anyone, all the time
C              Am
Being a rebel's fine
           Em            C
But you go all the way to being brutal

Chorus:
G
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
F
On the first bus out of town
On the first bus out of town

Let's see your kit for games
All the girls look the same
You are challenging style for running miles
You're running miles in some boy's jumper

Boo to the business world!
You know a girl who's tax free on her back and making
Plenty cash
While you are working for the joy of giving

Chorus:
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
And you hope that she will see
And you hope that she will see

You are in two minds
Tossing a coin to decide whether you should tell your mum
About a dose of thrush you got while licking railings

But you read in a book
That you got free from Boots
There are lotions, there are potions
You can take to hide your shame from all those prying eyes

Lazy Jane, all the time
Painting lines
You sleeping at bus stops
Wondering how you got your name
And what you're going to do about it.
