Intro: D A Bm G

VERSE 1

       D                          A          Bm    G
Did I sit alone and ask about my future?
           D                    A      Bm    G
When you replied I just turned away
           D                                     A               Bm    G
I've been searching through my books to try and find some truth
           D                       A      Bm    G
Perhaps disguised as a mysterious way

VERSE 2

           D            A         Bm              G
And if I made a promise, could I stay by your side?
           D                 A
Would you guarantee my safety?
              Bm             G
And say that I'd be all right

BRIDGE

        Bm
But if Judgement Day started tonight
                          G
At least I'd know I was right and I'd be laughing at the end of the world
Bm                                             A
Take my hand tonight I'll think we'll be all right, girl

CHORUS

           E
And I can see it on the TV
            Bm       (D)
There's an air attack
E                                   Bm           (D)
People of the mountains, screaming "I'll be back!"
        E               
And I'm banging on your door
         Bm            (D)
So come on and let me in!
E               
  Need a place to hide
Bm                   G                         D 
  I need a place to hide before the storm begins

D A Bm G

(Repeat chord pattern of verse)

If I told you all the times that I'd done wrong
Could you bathe my soul and wash it all away?
I can't forgive the things that I can still remember
So I think my friendly sins are here to stay

And I could make a promise
With a tear in my eye
And all the hope in my heart
But all the doubt in my mind

(Repeat chord pattern of bridge)

And if Judgement Day started tonight at least I'd know I was right
And I'd be laughing at the end of the world
Take my hand tonight I think we'll be all right, girl

(Repeat chord pattern of chorus)

And I can see it on the TV
There's an air attack
People on the mountains, screaming "I'll be back!"
And I'm banging on your door
So come on and let me in!
Need a place to hide       
                                            D   A  Bm  G
I need a place to hide before the storm begins

                    D   A  Bm  G
Before the storm begins
Before the storm begins
                    D   A
Before the storm begins
Bm                 G                         D   A  Bm  G
I need a place to hide before the storm begins

A Place To Hide

According to the Death Songfacts, lyricist Charles Cave admitted to Mojo that this song &quot;has a pretty depressing lyric.&quot; He added: &quot;But it's uplifting too because it can help people feel it's alright to think and worry about these things.&quot; 

Intro (Repeat X4)
G                           D         C                 E      

Verse
G                          D      C                     E
I love the feeling when we lift up
G                           D    C                      E	
Watching the world so small below 
G                          D       C                    E
I love the dreaming when I think of
G                            D        C                 E
The saftey in the clouds out my window
G                         D      C                      E	
I wonder what keeps us so high up
G                             D          C              E
Could there be a love beneath these wings
G                            D         C                E
If we suddenly fall should I scream out
G                                  Bm
Or keep very quite and cling to my mouth as I'm crying 
   D
So frightend of dying 
  G
Relax yes I?m trying
    A           C       G		
But fears got a hold on me
Bm                                        Em
            Yes, this fears got a hold on me
Bm                    D                   G	
            Yes, this fears got a hold on me


G                                 Em   C     x2

G                                 Em   C 
I love the quite of the night time
G                              Em   C 
When the sun in the deathly sea
G                                          Em   C 		
I can feel my heart beating as I speed from
G                                     Em   C 
Then sense of time catching up with me
G                             Em   C 
The sky set out like a pathway
G                                  Em   C 
But who decides which route we take
G                                 Em   C
As people drift into a dream world
G                                     Bm
I close my eyes as my hands shake and when I see a new day
      D
Who's driving this anyway 
  G
I picture my own grave
       A          C       G
Cause fears got a hold on me
Bm                           Em
Yes this fears got a hold on me
Bm                   D                   G
            Yes this fears got a hold on me
Bm                                       Em
            Yes this fears got a hold on me
Bm                                       G
            Yes this fears got a hold on me


C                Bm           G                Em
Floating neither up or down I wonder when I'll hit the ground
C                      Bm
Will the earth beneath my body shake
G                      Em
And cast your sleeping hearts awake
C                           Bm
Could it tremble stars from moonlit skies
G                         Em
Could it drag a tear from your cold eyes
C                          Bm
I live on the right side I sleep in the left
C
Thats why everythings got to be love or death

Outro (Repeat x8)
G                        D  C                             E
                                Yes this fears got a hold on me

Death

Am                 C              G               
If you tell me to jump then I'll die
In my dreams I'm there
I always hoped that I'd learn how to fly
In my dreams I'm there

Am                 C              G
You can tie my hands to the walls
Buy you can't tie my dreams to this place
I might fall like a rock from your heart
But you won't see me fall from grace

F                 Am  
Fate always loses hold
G                    Dm
Like electric sparks in my heart
F                 Am
Fate always loses hold
G                     Dm              E
Now be a good girl and do what you're told

Am                 C             G
If you tell me to jump then I'll die
In my dreams I'm there
I always hoped that I'd learn how to fly
In my dreams I'm there

Am                    C            G
I leave my memoirs in blood on the floor
And my fears with the nurse on the stairs
I'm only going where you'll be someday
So don't say rest in peace in your prayers

F                 Am
Fate always loses hold
G                   Dm
Like electric sparks in my heart
F                 Am
Fate always loses hold
G                      Dm             E
Now be a good girl and do what you're told

Am     G    Dm     C
I hope you remember me
I hope you never pretend for me
I hope you remember me
I hope you

F                  Am
Fate always loses hold
G                   Dm
Like electric sparks in my heart
F                  Am
Fate always loses hold
G                     Dm               E
Now be a good girl and do what you're told

Am      G    Dm    C
I hope you remember me

Farewell To The Fairground

E 
You talked me to sleep last night
C#m                F#m
I hadn't felt that sad in years
E
Your eyes like glass mistakes
C#m            F#m
They moved me close to tears
G#m                
You speak those favorite fables which I'm yet to live
F#m
And casually confirm my fears
C#m                           G#m
That I've got nothing to give

F#                               G#m         D#m
I wish I could say that I've got no regrets
F#                                   G#m        D#m
But saying that would be one more to pile on my desk
F#                              G#m             D#m
I wish I could say I've come to time like old
A                          C#m           A
But as you said goodbye, I almost died
C#m             F#
I almost died

E
I take it back, all of it
                      C#m           F#m
Those names I called myself
E
The heroes of my childhood
      C#m                      F#m
Like hardbacks on the shelf
G#m
I take it back those promises I made to everyone
F#m
I'm falling through a ribbon last
C#m                          G#m
Before I'd learned to run

F#                               G#m        D#m
I wish I could say that I've got no regrets
F#                                   G#m        D#m
But saying that would be one more to pile on my desk
F#                              G#m            D#m
I wish I could say I've come to time like old
A                          C#m          F#     A
But as you said goodbye, I almost died
  C#m             F#      A
I almost died
  C#m              F#     A
I almost died

Nothing To Give

Dm                                      Am
He said to lose my life or lose my love,
           Gm                               Dm
That's the nightmare I've been running from.
Dm                                    Am
So let me hold you in my arms a while,
      Gm                         Dm
I was always careless as a child.

Dm                                           Am
And there's a part of me that still believes,
   Gm                             Dm
My soul will soar above the trees.
Dm                                          Am
But a desperate fear flows through my blood,
         Gm                                Dm
That our dead loves buried beneath the mud.

Dm                      C
Let's grow old together,
    Gm
And die at the same time.
Dm                      C
Let's grow old together,
    Gm 
And die at the same time.

Dm                                   Am
I said I've got no time I have to go,
    Gm                                       Dm    
And I was more right then now I'll ever know.
Dm                                           Am
He said my heart is faint, will minds regret,
    Gm                                        Dm
And left him crying next to the chapels steps.

Dm                      C
Let's grow old together,
    Gm
And die at the same time.
Dm                      C
Let's grow old together,
    Gm 
And die at the same time.
                         (He said!)
Dm                      C
Let's grow old together,
    Gm
And die at the same time.
Dm                      C
Let's grow old together,
    Gm 
And die at the same time.
                         (He said!)
Dm                                      Am
He said to lose my life or lose my love,
           Gm
That's the nightmare I've been running from.

Dm                                    Am
So let me hold you in my arms a while,
                  (Let's grow old together,)
      Gm                   Dm
I was careless as a child.
              (And die at the same time.)
Dm                                       Am
There's a part of me that still believes,
                    (Let's grow old together,)
   Gm                             Dm
My soul will soar above the trees.
                  (And die at the same time.)
                                         (He said!)
Dm                                      C
A desperate fear flows through my blood,
                 (Let's grow old together,)
    Gm                                Dm
Our dead loves buried beneath the mud.
                     (And die at the same time.)
Dm                                      C
A desperate fear flows through my blood,
                 (Let's grow old together,)
    Gm                                Dm
Our dead loves buried beneath the mud
                     (And die at the same time.)

Just give me a second, darling, to clear my head
         E                    G#m                 E    G#m
Just put down those scissors, baby, on the single bed
    E                      G#m
The sand in the hour glass is running low
               E                            G#m
I came through thunder, the cold, wind, the rain and the snow
   A
To find you awake by your window sill
   G#m                       F#m
A sight for sore eyes, and a view to kill

I broke down in horror at you standing there
  E                       G#m
The glow from the moon shone through cracks in your hair
  E                       G#m
I shouted with passion ?e I love you so much?
  E                       G#m
But feeling my skin, it was cold to the touch
  A
You whispered where are you?
  A
I questioned your doubt
  G#m                      F#m
But soon realised you were talking to God now

I just need more time

I looked in the mirror, but something was wrong
  E                       G#m
I saw you behind, but my reflection was gone
           E                       G#m
There was smoke in the fireplace as white as the snow
  E                       G#m
A voice then come gently ?eIt?s your time to go?
  A                            A
That record you played, as you beg for forgiveness
       G#m

into the arms of the girl that I love
                Am

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

I do my best to meet her demands
Am

         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

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]

You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun

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

       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 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

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

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

(Oh)Tell me how we're not alike

But we work so well and we don't even know why

('Cause we work so well and we don't even know why, why)
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right

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

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

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

As She's Walking Away

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.
