Amber Pacific - Gone So Young

Intro: C-G-F-F#(2X)

Verse1:
         Am                F
I never dreamt it'd be this way
               C                G
I've lost any chance for me to say
               Am                  F
To say that I miss you, say that I love you
                     G
Will someone please tell me I'm okay

             Am                 F
I wasn't prepared for what's to come
                 C               G
A life made of memories gone so young
                Am              F
And now I'm regretting all I've done
             G                                F - G
But in your heart know that I'm with you all along

Chorus
              C              G
Wherever you go, I will be waiting
              Am              F
Whenever you call, I will be there
              C                    G               F
Whatever it takes, I'll make your darkest days so bright
     G                Am      
I'm in your heart tonight

Verse2: CHORDS same as verse1
I never thought that this could go
And take me away from all I know
And leave me to think I'm on my own
But your love will take me, you were the one...

...Who sat through nights
You held me tight
And made sure I'm okay
And I thank you for the love you gave to me

REPEAT CHORUS

Whenever you call, I will be there

Whatever it takes, I'll make your darkest days so bright
                 C                    G
And if I should fall, I know you're waiting
                 Am                  F
And if I should call, I know you're there
             C         
If ever you cry just know
    G                F
I'm in your heart tonight...
    G                 C   
I'm in your heart tonight.

Gone So Young

...B#m        G                 D                A
If time could stop, how could I make this more poetic?
             B#m          G              D        A
When there's nothing more pathetic to be said...
             B#m          G
You bring me out, show me light, 
    D          A                B#m    G       D      A       
I'm sorry if I hide, I'm too afraid to look inside.
          B#m                G
You carry truth, you make me smile.
           D              A
If it were you and me tonight,
        B#m                G                  D        A
I would tame the stars and save the brightest one for you.

Poetically Pathetic

          Em                 Cadd9
I never dreamt it'd be this way
                 G              D
I've lost any chance for me to say

Will someone please tell me I'm okay

            Em                    Cadd9
I wasn't prepared for what's to come
                 G                D
A life made of memories gone so young
               Em                 Cadd9
And now I'm regretting all I've done
              D                                Cadd9
But in your heart know that I'm with you all along

I'm in your heart tonight

          Em                     Cadd9
I never thought that this could go
             G                D
And take me away from all I know

Gone So Young 

C#               C
I'll quote clever line like hope
                   A#   
I'll take the final words you wrote
                   G#         C#
To make them feel like bliss
              C
As always as I'll take the praise
        A#
I have a way with making things
               G#                   F#     G#
Scripted like a song that makes you sting

C#
I need you here with me
G#
So here's our heart to heart
A#                                 F#
On the back of postcards sent from California
C#
Remember when I said
G#
Just stay what you are
A#                         F#
I know you hate the feeling when I walk away
C#(pm)                 G#(pm)                          F#
When I'm without you I'm not the man that I know I can be
G#
Because your not here with me

The Possibility and the Promise

So why should I take your hand when you can't promise happy endings?...

E   B   C#m   A


E      
It's starting to get old
            B
That story yet untold
                   C#m
Reflect before we walk into

What we already know
A
Won't be so easy



E
Looking back at high school drama
B
Didn't try to fix what we thought were problems
C#m
Done with writing empty letters
A
Is there no other way?



E
Staring at your reflection every day
B
Can make or break my heart away
C#m                             A
When you won't listen to what's hard for me to say
E                           B
Those tear stained eyes can make me feel so sad
         C#m                                   A
And once again we're further away from what we never had



                E         B                   C#m            A
So why should I take your hand when you can't promise happy endings?
E                  B               C#m    A
Just run away with so much left to share
          E          B
It's just not enough
           C#m               A
When we're so much more than friends
E                       B              C#m     A
We're much too young to throw away our cares



           E                               B
There's no sense in regretting what's been said in our yesterdays
C#m
We can't take back what's done
                A
But we can look ahead
            E                            B              
And I would walk so much further just to know what I'm doing here
    C#m                                A
And there's no end to what I'd give to know just what you meant when you said
E                                  B
How can I feel alive when we can't help but break our backs just to survive?
C#m                     A
Is this another time we can't control our lives?



E                           B
Those tear stained eyes can make me feel so sad
           C#m                                 A          
And once again we're further away from what we never had



And then the rest of the song repeats what I have in already :)

Thoughts Before Me

Fading Days

[intro]
F Am Dm Am A# Dm Gm C

[Verse 1]
             F 
Baby really hurt me
                Am 
crying in the taxi
                Dm
He dont wanna know me
                         Am                     A#     Dm
says you make the big mistake of dancing in my store 
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
A#                  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                      A#
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     A# 
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     A# 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave
       C            Dm            F    A#       
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               A#
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
            A#    Dm
unitl youre gone
Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
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     A# 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave
       C            Dm            F    A#       
I'm a little much for eh oh-na-na-na everyone

[Outro]
             Dm           F           A#
They're gonna watch me disappear into the sun
                 Dm        F           A#
You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun

C#m          E       B      A                     C#m   E    B   A 
I’m going away to be alone I’m coming back with answers
C#m           E            B    A            C#m   E   B   A
Don’t try to call my telephone it’s disconnected
C#m           E          B       A               C#m   E   B   A
And I don’t know where I’m going but can you guide me
C#m              E        B        A              C#m   E   B   A

PRE-CHORUS 1:

C#m            B   A                         C#m         A   B
‘Cause in your own space you’re disconnected and in your own mind you’re not affected
C#m         B   A                           C#m         A   B
And in your own time you’re still attracted but in your own life


CHORUS:

A                                 C#m            B
This heart attack I’ve gotta get away not coming back
A                                 C#m                     B
I want some downtime so call me when you can and I’ll be fine


VERSE 2: [same chords as VERSE1]
I’ve found the time to be alone I don’t know what you’re asking
I’m waiting by the telephone and you’re still barking
My heart stops it isn’t… going could you revive me
I think I’m lost without knowing so come and find me


PRE-CHORUS 2:  [same chords as PRE-CHORUS1]
‘Cause in the same space we’re disconnected and in your own mind you’re not attracted
But in your own life over reacted and in your own time


{CHORUS x2}


Sometimes if we don’t go sometimes you don’t know
You don’t go I don’t go I don’t go you don’t go

C#5  B5  A5                      C#5  A5  B5
            I’ve got your back              but you don’t got mine

This Heart Attack

A                                     E 
Roll into your town and I'm walking around
                                                Fm                        
Got some extra time think I'll throw some money down
                                                     D
And you follow me around, and you're asking for the time

Your asking what I found 
                         A
think I'm gonna rob you blind

maybe it's the tattoo on my arm
        E
that I drew while I was bored waiting tables in new york
Fm                                            D
 a  heart and two flowers intertwined with a vine

Why Cry

[Verse 1]
 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D
You say you like sleeping with the air off
Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change


[Chorus]
N.C.                     D
Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
We don't even know why, no no
Bm                          A
We don't even know why, no no no


[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time


[Verse 2]
G                        D
Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change

[Bridge]
G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine
G                         D
Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)
Bm                            A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright

(Think that we'd be alright)

G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine

(Oh)Tell me how we're not alike

Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus

Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day

Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase
     G               A
Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith

Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day

There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
