Verse #1:
F5                                  G#5   -              D#5   -
 Two packs of cigarettes a day, the strongest whiskey Kentucky can make
F5                        G#5   -         D#5   -
 That's a recipe to put a vagabond on his hands and knees
F5                                               G#5   -              D#5   -      (F5)
 I watched it all up close, I knew him more than most I saw a side of him he never showed
F5                      G#5   -             D#5   -
 Full of sympathy for a world that wouldn't let him be

 
Pre-chorus :
A#5
 That's the man he was, 
C#5
 Have you heard enough?



Chorus :
F#5  -  G#5   -       D#5                                   (F#5)
 What a shame, what a shame, to judge a life that you can't change
F#5  -     G#5   -                 D#5                                  F#5
 The choir sings, the church bells ring, so won't you give this man his wings?
       G#5    -         D#5                               C#5  -  C5   -
What a shame to have to beg you to See we're not all the same
       (F#5)
What a shame

2nd verse :
          F5                                         G#5   -             D#5   -
There's a hard life for every silver spoon, there's a touch of grey for every shade of blue
F5                                           G#5   -                        D#5   -
 That's the way that I see life if there was nothing wrong, then there'd be nothing right
F5                                               G#5   -                  D#5   -         (F5)
 And for this working man they say could barely stand, there's gotta be a better place to land
F5                         G#5   -             D#5   -
 Some kind of remedy for a world that wouldn't let him be

 Have you heard enough?

 What a shame, what a shame, to judge a life that you can't change
F#5  -     G#5   -                 D#5                                  F#5
 The choir sings, the church bells ring, so won't you give this man his wings?
       G#5    -         D#5                               C#5  -  C5   -
What a shame to have to beg you to See we're not all the same

A5 --  B5 --    C5 --      E5 --   D5
God forgive the hands that laid you down (They never knew how)
A5 --  B5 --  C5 --     E5 --     D5
Much a broken heart can break the sound (and change the season)
C5                                D5
Now the leaves are falling faster, Happily ever after

You gave me hope through your endeavors
D5-- E5-- F5-- G5-- A5-- B5-- C5 
And now you will live forever

F#5  -     G#5   -                 D#5                                  F#5
 The choir sings, the church bells ring, so won't you give this man his wings?
       G#5    -         D#5                              (F#5)
What a shame to have to beg you to See we're not all the same



Outro:

Diamond Eyes

Verse:

Am
If you only knew
Am
I'm hanging by a thread
F         C          F       C
The web I spin for you
Am
If you only knew
Am
I'd sacrifice my beating
F         C           F      C
Heart before I lose you


Prechorus:

Dsus2
I still hold onto the letters
G
You returned
G
I swear I've lived and learned


Chorus:

C       Em             
It's 4:03 and I can't sleep
Am                     G
Without you next to me I
G                      C
Toss and turn like the sea
C            Em
If I drown tonight, bring me
Em      Am
Back to life
Am
Breathe your breath in me
    G
The only thing that I still
F       C  G  Am      F   C G  Am
believe in is you, if you only knew

If You Only Knew

Intro: F#m-F#m-A-E  x2

F#m
Two packs of cigarettes a day
    A
The strongest whiskey
   E                F#m
Kentucky can make
                         A
That's a recipe to put a vagabond
       E                 F#m
On his hands and knees

I watched it all up close,
                     A
I knew him more than most
                E                   F#m
I saw a side of him he never showed
                       A
Full of sympathy for a world that
         E
Wouldn't let him be


Bm
    That's the man he was,
D             C#
    Have you heard enough?


F#m      A             E
What a shame, what a shame,
                                  F#m
To judge a life that you can't change
           A                       E
The choir sings, the church bells ring
                                 F#m
So, won't you give this man his wings?
         A               E
What a shame to have to beg you to
                      D    C#
See we're not all the same
       F#m
What a shame

F#m-A-E
F#m-F#m-A-E

          F#m
There's a hard life for every silver spoon
         A                       E
There's a touch of grey for every shade of blue
F#m
That's the way that I see life
             A
If there was nothing wrong,
                E
Then there'd be nothing right
F#m
And for this working man they say could
       A
Barely stand
                     E             F#m
There's gotta be a better place to land
                          A
Some kind of remedy for a world that
         E
Wouldn't let him be


Bm
   That's the man he was,
D            C#
   Have you heard enough?


F#m      A             E
What a shame, what a shame,
                                  F#m
To judge a life that you can't change
           A                       E
The choir sings, the church bells ring
                                 F#m
So, won't you give this man his wings?
         A               E
What a shame to have to beg you to
                      D    C# 
See we're not all the same

        Bm-A  
What a shame         

Bridge:

Bbm-Cm-C#-Fm-Eb x2 

Bbm     Cm      C#          Fm      Eb
God forgive the hands that laid you down,

They never knew how, 
Bbm      Cm      C#         Fm       Eb
But your broken heart can break the sound,

And change the season
C#                                 Eb
Now the leaves are falling faster, happily ever after
C#                 
You gave me hope through your endeavors
    Eb  Fm  F#m  Ab   Bb  Cm C#  
And now you will live for-e--ver          
                                       
                                      
                                      
F#m       A          E
What a shame, what a shame,
                                 F#m
To judge a life that you can't change
           A                      E
The choir sings, the church bells ring
                                 F#m
So, won't you give this man his wings?
         A               E
What a shame to have to beg you to
                      F#m
See we're not all the same
         A             E
What a shame, what a shame
                         F#m
'Cause we're not all the same
         A             E
What a shame, what a shame
                         F#m

Gm                           D
(If I had a world of my own everything will be nonsense)
Bb                                           Cm                       D
(Nothing will be what it is because everything will be what it isn't) 

Verse 1:

Gm                                     D
I invite you to a world where there is no such thing as time
Bb                                    Cm                   D
And every creature lends themself to change your state of mind
         Gm                                    D
And the girl that chased the rabbit drank the wine and took the pill
     Bb                             Cm
Has locked herself in limbo to see how it truly feels
Eb           Cdim
To stand outside your virtue
Bb          F
No one can ever hurt you
Eb         Cdim*
Or so they say 

Chorus:

             Gm      Bb
Her name is Alice (Alice)

She crawls into the window 
Through shapes and shadows

And even though she is dreaming, she knows

Verse 2:

                Gm                    D
Sometimes the curiosity can kill the soul but leave the pain
     Bb                          Cm              D
And every ounce of innocence is left inside her brain
     Gm                                    D
And through the looking glass we see shes painfully returned
    Bb                               Cm           D
But now off with her head I fear is everyone's concern
Eb              Cdim
You see there's no real ending
Bb         F
It's only the beginning 
Eb           Cdim*
Come out and play 

Chorus:

            Gm       Bb
Her name is Alice (Alice)
            Eb
She crawls into to the window
Through shapes and shadows
Gm       Bb
Alice (Alice)
          Eb
And even though she is dreaming
                                F
She's unlocked the meaning for you

Bridge:

            Gm             Eb
This kingdom good riddance
                           F
Her freedom and innocence
                  Gm         Eb
Has brought this whole thing down

Chorus/Outtro:

            Gm       Bb
Her name is Alice (Alice)
            Eb
She crawls into to the window 
Through shapes and shadows
Gm      Bb
Alice (Alice)
          Eb
And even though she is dreaming 
Shes unlocked the meaning

 Gm                         Bb
(Red knights, White Knights marching into the fight
Eb
Drink me, shrink me, fill me to sink me)
 Gm                         Bb
(Red knights, White Knights marching into the fight
Eb
Drink me, shrink me, fill me to sink me)     Gm    D
               Shes unlocked the meaning for you
                          Bb
(In contrary wise what it is it wouldn't be)

(And what it wouldn't be it would) 
(You see)

Second Chance

[Intro]
| Em     D/F#  |   G    -   |  Csus2  |  Gm7/C  |

[Verse 1]
Em     D/F#     G
Send away for a priceless gift
Csus2           Gm7/C
One not subtle, One not on the list.
Em     D/F#     G
Send away for a perfect world
Csus2         Gm7/C
One not simply so absurd.
Em      D/F#      G
In these times of doing what you're told
Csus2              Gm7/C
Keep these feelings, no one knows.
Am                       Em
Whatever happened to the young man's heart.
Am                       G      D   Em
Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart.

[Chorus]
Em                                   D
And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45
C                             D
Swimming through the ashes of another life.
Em                               D
No real reason to accept the way things have changed
C                            Am
Staring down the barrel of a 45.

[Instrumental Break]
| Em     D/F#  |   G    -   |  Csus2  |  Gm7/C  |

[Verse 2]
Em     D/F#     G
Send a message to the unborn child
Csus2           Gm7/C
Keep your eyes open for a while
Em     D/F#     G
In a box high up on the shelf
Csus2         Gm7/C
Left for you no one else
Em      D/F#      G
There's a piece of a puzzle known as life
Csus2              Gm7/C
Wrapped in guilt, sealed up tight
Am                       Em
Whatever happened to the young man's heart.
Am                       G      D   Em
Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart.

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
           Bm                    C
Everyone's pointing their fingers
       Bm            C
Always condemning me
 Bm
Nobody knows what
  Em   D/F#    G
I believe
  Csus2    Gm7/C
I believe

[Chorus] x2

intro: Bm A G X2

Bm                   A           G 
I feel like there is no need for   conversation
Bm                  A          G
Some questions are better left   without a reason
Bm                   A                   G
And I would rather reveal myself than my   situation
F                        G
Now and then I consider my hesitation

Em           G
The more the light shines through me
D            A 
I pretend to close my eyes
Em            G
The more the dark consumes me
D             Fm
I pretend I'm burning, burning bright

Bm              A                 G
I wonder if the things I did were   just to be different
Bm                     A                 G
To spare myself of the constant shame of   my existence
Bm                  A                  G
And I would surely redeem myself in my   desperation
F                          G
Here and now I'll express my situation

Em            G
The more the light shines through me
D             A
I pretend to close my eyes
Em            G
The more the dark consumes me
D             A
I pretend I'm burning bright
Em            G
The more the light shines through me
D             A
I pretend to close my eyes
Em            G
The more the dark consumes me
D             Fm
I pretend I'm burning

Bm                        A                         G
There's nothing ever wrong, but nothing's ever right
G
Such a cruel contradiction
Bm                        A                        G
I know I crossed the line, it's not easy to define
G
I'm born to indecision
Bm                           A                                 G
There's always something new, some path I'm supposed to choose
G
With no particular rhyme or reason

Em            G
The more the light shines through me
D             A             
I pretend to close my eyes
Em            G             
The more the dark consumes me
D             A              
I pretend I'm burning bright
Em            G                      
The more the light shines through me
D             A
I pretend to close my eyes
Em            G              
The more the dark consumes me
D             Fm
I pretend I'm burning 


Bm                   A           G
I feel like there is no need for   conversation

Well mama told me, when I was young
         C        G       Am
Said sit beside me, my only son

And listen closely to what I say

And if you do this, it'll help you some sunny day

Ahhh
Yeah it will

Or take your time don't live to fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
You'll find a woman and you'll find love
And don't forget that there's is a someone up above

[Chorus]
Be a simple kind of man
Be a something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh won't you do this for me son if you can
(if you can)

Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need now is in your soul
And you can do this(oh baby)if you try
All that I want from you my son is to be satisfied

[Chorus]
And be a simple kind of man
Be a something that you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh won't you do this for me son if you can
(if you can)

Oh don't you worry
You'll find yourself
Follow your heart
And nothing else
And you can do this(oh baby)if you try
All that I want from you my son is to be satisfied

[Chorus]
And be a simple kind of man
Oh won't you do this for me son if you can
So baby be a simple be a simple man
Oh won't you do this for me son if you can

A#                  Dm
   She's so hard to please
             Gm      C

Am

         Dm

    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

Get you wild, make you leave

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

Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me

[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

Liability

A                                     E 
Roll into your town and I'm walking around

                                                     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

that I drew while I was bored waiting tables in new york

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
    G              D          Bm    A
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

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

We like it in the daytime (we don't even know)

[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

(Oh)Tell me how we're not alike

Crash Years

Intro  D     Bm7   G     A     x2


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 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
        Bm7                 F#              G                    A
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
        Bm7 A   G                              Gm
Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away


Interlude   D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 2
          D                           Bm7
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


Chorus
          D                        D7
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
         Bm7 A   G                               Gm
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith
 
          D                        D7
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

Situations

Am                              E
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.
