So tired of this heavy load.
F                         Bb
I've been carrying it for so long.
Dm                   Bb
I don't know what it wants with me.
C

F                                Bb
Rolling dice on my hotel room bed.
F                                                Bb
Man, it feels so nice to love some one she said.
C                      Bb                           F
Cause when the evening comes I'm scared to be bad all by myself.
C                      Bb                        F
And I know exactly how it feels to be by myself.


F
And now she's singing,
F                                   Bb
Happiness always scared me half to death.
F                                    Bb
Never had myself no lovin' to caress."
C                        Bb                                  F
Little darling stop those tears and dry your eyes, I'm a be right here.
C                          Bb                               F
And I'd really love to stay tonight, if you'll have me here.

F
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
F                               Bb
Little girl you know I love you so.
Dm                               Bb
Let's take it easy now and simmer down.
C                                       F
Little girl, let's take the long way home.

Lets Take The Long Way Home

We're Already Gone

E                    C#m
This day is getting older,
 Ab                     A
In fading light it's beautiful.
E                        C#m
This wind is blowing colder,
 Ab                         A
And too soon I'll feel its pull.

E
Still, I took all my chances,
 C#m
Earned myself an even score.
 Ab                      A
Try to learn my lessons well.
E
And I don't have the answers,
       C#m
For those questions anymore.
   Ab                              A
Only love can be both heaven and hell.

E                           C#m
So sturdy up, sturdy up your heart,
      Ab               A
For the road is long ahead.
     E                              C#m
I'll be with you even though we're apart,
        Ab                  A
But your road is yours to tread.
   E                      C#m
And so it goes, and so it goes,
       Ab                       A
And so it goes, slows your mind, mind, mind,
     E          C#m                    Ab                 A
And so it goes... and so it goes, and so it goes, slows your mind, mind, mind,

Mind, mind.

E                     C#m
I've grown old on this ocean,
Ab                      A
Gave her all, my stronger years.
E                  C#m
Gave my wife my devotion,
Ab                          A
When she died, the ocean my tears.

E
I've tried to teach you well son,
C#m
All of everything I knew.
Ab                         A
Of how to live this life be true.
E
Don't bow your head to no one,
C#m
And no matter what you do,
Ab                         A
If you start then see it through.

E                          C#m
So sturdy up, sturdy up your heart,
Ab                     A
For the road is long ahead.
E                                 C#m
I'll be with you even though we're apart,
Ab                         A
But your road is yours to tread.
E                       C#m
And so it goes, and so it goes,
Ab                             A
And so it goes, slows your mind, mind, mind,
E                     C#m                Ab
A
And so it goes... and so it goes, and so it goes, slows your mind, mind, mind.

Well I woke up last night, couldn't tell if I was dreaming. 
D                                          G

D                                             G

Well I have never seen a girl as beautiful as you in my whole life.

D                                                     G
You came into my mind like pictures of an earthly goddess. 
D                                                           G
She said my boy don't fill up your heart with nothing but love. 
D                                      G
That truth is true to you is truth enough.

I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets

School Friends

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

Arrows Of Eros

Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye

You were staying out all night and I had enough

Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories

But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us

It Ain't Me

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
