G   D   C   D*   D
Like a freeze dried rose
You will never be
What you were, what you were
To me in memory

G   D   C   D*   D
But if I listen to the dark
You'll embrace me like a star
Envelope me
Envelope me


G   D   C   D*   D
If things get real for me down here
Promise to take me to before you went away
If only for a day

G   D    C   D
If things get real for me down here
Promise to take me back to the tune we played
Before you went away


G   D   C   D
And if I listen to the sound of white
Sometimes I hear your smile, and breathe your light
Yeah if I listen to the sound of white

The Sound Of White

Intro:Bm, A, D x2

Bm,                  A,                 D    Bm,                    A, 
I've hardly been outside this room in days, 'cause I don't feel that I 
                  D
deserve the sunshine's rays. 
Bm,                 A,                      D     Bm,                A,    
The darkness helps until the whiskey wears away, and it's then I realize the 
   D
conscience never fades. 
Bm,                A,                        D      Bm,               A, 
When you're young you have this image of your life:that you'll be 
                       D
scrupulous and one day even make a wife. 
Bm,                  A,                       D      Bm,                  A, 
And you make boundaries you'd never dream to cross, and if you happen to you 
D
wake completely lost. 
   Bm,                          A,                                      D
But I will fight for you, be sure that I will fight until we're the special 

two once again. 

Chorus:
Bm,              A,            D              G              Bm
When we could only need each other, we'd breathe together, our hands would 
A                        D                    G
not be taught to hold another's, when we were the special two. 
Bm,              A,            D             G            Bm,            A,  
And we could only see each other, we'd breathe together, these arms will not 
           D                            G
be taught to need another, 'cause we were the special two.

Special Two

C G Am F
He left a card, a bar of soap and a scrubbing brush next to a note 
That said "use these down to your bones" 
And before I knew I had shiny skin and it felt easy being clean like him 
I thought "this one knows better than I do" 

Dm G F
A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle 
He tried to cut me so I'd fit 

C G Am F
And doesn't that sound familiar? Doesn't that hit too close to home? 
Doesn't that make you shiver; the way things could've gone? 
And doesn't it feel peculiar when everyone wants a little more? 
And so that I do remember to never go that far, 
Could you leave me with a scar? 

So the next one came with a bag of treats, she smelled like sugar and 
spoke like the sea 
And she told me don't trust them, trust me 
Then she pulled at my stitches one by one, looked at my insides clicking 
her tongue and said 
"This will all have to come undone" 

Dm G F
A triangle trying to squeeze through a circle 
She tried to cut me so I'd fit 

C G Am F
And doesn't that sound familiar? Doesn't that hit too close to home? 
Doesn't that make you shiver; the way things could have gone? 
And doesn't it feel peculiar when everyone wants a little more? 
And so that I do remember to never go that far, 
Could you leave me with a scar?

E        Emaj7     A      B
Feel it falling off like clothing
Taste it rolling on your tongue
See the lights above you glowing
Breathe them deep into your lungs

It was always simple
A
Not hidden hard

You've been pulling at the strings
G#m
 playing puppeteer for kings

so now you finally know
you control where you go
you can steer

E        Emaj7     A      B
so hold this feeling like a newborn
 a freedom surging through your veins
 you have opened up a new dawn
so bring on the wind and the rain

B
it was always simple 
A
not hidden hard
B
you've been played at a game 
G#m
called remembering your name
A                         B
and you stuffed it up

E        Emaj7     A      B

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

                          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

Watch the drunks and the lovers appear

I wheel my bike off the train,

Look for you on Marley Lane

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

        This must madness is too much sorrow, its impossible to make it

        today... She could drag me, over the rainbow, send me away


(Chorus)

(Verse 1)

A  E  D A

A                                        E
when there's no place you feel at home
              D                               A
and you think you'd be better off alone
A                                          E
when you think there's no reason to try
               D                           A
and you hate yourself and wanna die

A                                      E
when you're filled with anxiety
             D                   A
and everyone's your enemy
A                                        E
when you wish you were someone else
                 D                        A
and you wanna go out and kill yourself

[chorus]

E D                 A
ooh you're overreacting

(you can change your mind)
E D                A
ooh you're overreacting

(take your time)


A                       E
when you get yourself depressed
                      D                   A
because you think you can't do your best
A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song
           D                        A
to remind yourself that you forgot

[chorus]

E D                 A
ooh you're overreacting

(you can change your mind)
E D                A
ooh you're overreacting

(take your time)

         D                 A                          
I'll confess tonight your all thats on my mind
        Bm            A                   D
I know these roof top nights could last forever.
              A                            Bm
we watched the seasons change, we saw the distance pull us away,
           A
from all we shared together.

D                       A
Right now is all we have you better make this count

    Em    A
lets run away.
D                             A                             Bm

D                    A
I picked apart every word that you said
  Bm                              A
I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
D                         A
the way you are leaves me counting the days
        Bm                            A
till the next time this distance will be a memory

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.

Gonna Be A Long Time

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.
