The Cure are a new wave/post-punk band which formed in 1976 in Crawley, England, United Kingdom. The band originally consisted of Robert Smith (vocals, guitar), Porl Thompson (guitar), Michael Dempsey (bass) and Lol Tolhurst (drums), with the band's lineup overgoing several changes throughout the years and Smith remaining as the only constant member throughout the band's history. The band has released 13 studio albums and have sold 27 million albums worldwide and are considered a major influence on goth rock, alternative rock and new wave music. 

The Cure est un groupe de rock et de new wave britannique, formé en 1976 à Crawley (West Sussex), qui a marqué les années 1980 et 1990. La formation actuelle est composée de la figure historique du groupe : le leader Robert Smith (auteur, compositeur et chanteur) et de Simon gallup à la basse,  Jason Cooper à la batterie et Roger O'Donnell (revenu dans le groupe en 2011) aux claviers.   Porl Thompson (guitare) revenu en 2005 n'est plus réapparu dans le groupe depuis 2010. Perry Bamonte (guitare) et Roger O'Donnell (claviers) avaient quitté le groupe en mai 2005. 

La formación original de la banda, entonces Easy Cure, nació en un colegio de Crawley, una ciudad construida sobre los escombros que dejó la guerra en un pequeño pueblo en el corazón de la campiña del sur de Inglaterra. Aunque Easy Cure había surgido como una banda de punk, para cuando simplificaron su nombre a The Cure, la creciente fascinación de Robert Smith por los temas oscuros y opresivos, ya se había unido a su habilidad para canalizar esas ideas en canciones apasionadamente evocadoras...

Faded red inside a tiny book of butterflies

The wings flew by spelled out my name

Six months went by the summer lost

Obsessively the letters dropped into my life

The same soft blood smooth flowing hand

Intro
     Am                            C
The year grew old incessantly she wrote to me
                       F
She'd started smoking poetry!
                   G
I laughed in recognition of a favorite phrase
       Am
She'd pulled me in...

I answered her
   C
A christmas card in sepia
 F
Arranging when and where
             G
And how the two of us should meet...
     Dm
Her opening so well prepared
   C
A nervous smile
                    G
I couldn't take my eyes from her

She whispered
       Am
"can i use some of your lipstick?"
        Dm
It was perfect so believable
   C                                  G
I couldn't help but feel that it was real
                          Am
And kissing crimson fell into her waiting arms

So alone into the cold new year without another word from her
  F                              G
I wrote to ask if we could maybe meet again before the spring
    Am                          C
But weeks went by with no reply untill once more my birthday came

Faded red inside a tiny book of old goodbyes...

"So we meet again!" and I offer my hand 
     G               A
All dry and English slow.
         D
And you look at me, and I understand,
              G              A
Yeah, it's a look I used to know.

I see you give that look goodbye...

I still see that look in your eye...

So dizzy Mr. Busy - Too much rush to talk to Billy,

All the silly frilly things have to first get done.
      Em                             A
In a minute - sometime soon - maybe next time - make it June,

Until later... doesn't always come.

It's so hard to think "It ends sometime,

I should really hear you sing again,

And I should really watch you dance,

All the tizzy fizzy idiot things must get done.
     Em                              A

I should've stopped to think - I should've made the time.
    G                 A                  G            A
I could've had that drink - I could've talked a while.
    G                A                 G          A
I would've done it right - I would've moved us on,

But I didn't - now it's all too late,

It's over... And you're gone...

How many times can I talk this way

Keep on making the same mistake,

Keep on aching the same heartbreak,

And I wish "If only..."

But "If only...."

Is a wish too late...

    C#m
On candystripe legs spiderman comes,
 A
Softly through the shadow of the evening sun.
  C#m
Stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead,
 A
Looking for the victim shivering in bed.
 C#m
Searching out fear in the gathering gloom,
     A
And suddenly! A movement in the corner of the room!
              C#m
And there is nothing I can do when I realise with fright
           A
That the spiderman is having me for dinner tonight!

 C#m
Quietly he laughs, and shaking his head
         A
Creeps closer now, closer to the foot of the bed,
     C#m
And softer than shadow and quicker than flies,
     A
His arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes...
     C#m
"Be still, be calm, be quiet now, my precious boy,
         A
Don't struggle like that, or I will only love you more,
         C#m
For it's much too late to get away or turn on the light;
      A
The spiderman is having you for dinner tonight!"


      F#m
And I feel like I'm being eaten
                                     A
By a thousand million shivering furry holes,
      F#m
And I know that in the morning
                                  A
I will wake up in the shivering cold...
                                 C#m
And the spiderman is always hungry...

Love Song

Em                D
We move like cagey tigers
   C                         D
We couldn't get closer than this
   Em
The way we walk
   D
The way we talk
   C
The way we stalk
   D
The way we kiss

     Em
We slip through the streets
      D
While everyone sleeps
       C
Getting bigger and sleeker
    D
And wider and brighter
       Em                    D
Oh, We bite and scratch and scream all night
      C
Let's go and
              D
Throw all the songs we know


 G
Into the sea

You and me
          Am
All these years and no one heard
     G
I'll show you in spring

It's a treacherous thing
   Am
We missed you hissed the lovecats


Em           D          C              D
Ba da da da da da da, ba daaa da da da da..   ( And so on)


Verse 2 is the same as the first.

Lovecats

Dm			   Bb	G
You're so gorgeous I'll do anything
I'll kiss you from your feet to where your head begins
You're so perfect, you're so right as rain
You make me make me hungry again

  F 			E
Everything you do is irresistible
  F				E
Everything you do is simply kissable
 Dm	Bb-G
Why can't I be you?

I'll run around in circles 'til I run out of breath
I'll eat you all up or I'll just hug you to death
You're so wonderful too good to be true
You make me make me hungry for you

Everything you do is simply delicate
Everything you do is quite angelicate
Why can't I be you?

You turn my head when you turn around
You turn the whole world upside down
I'm smitten I'm bitten I'm hooked I'm cooked I'm stuck like glue
You make me make me hungry for you

Everything you do is simply dreamy
Everything you do is quite delicious
Why can't I be you?
Why can't I be you?
Why can't I be you?

You're simply elegant!!!

Why Can't I Be You

C                 Am            F          G   
The sun is up. I'm so happy I could scream!
            C                   Am               F        G
And there's nowhere else in the world I'd rather be
     C
Than here with you
     Am
It's perfect
     F            G
It's all I ever wanted
  C              Am                  F         G
I almost can't believe that it's for real


I really don't think it gets any better than this
Vanilla smile And a gorgeous strawberry kiss!
Birds sing we swing
Clouds drift by and 
Everything is like a dream
It's everything I wished

Am               G
Never guessed it got this good
C               F
Wondered if it ever would
Am             G
Really didn't think it could
F              G
Do it again? I know we should!


The sun is up. I'm so fizzy I could burst!
You wet through and me headfirst
Into this 
is perfect
It's all I ever wanted
Ow! it feels so big it almost hurts!


Never guessed it got this good
Wondered if it ever would
Really didn't think it could
Do it some more? I know we should!


Say it will always be like this
The two of us together
It will always be like this
Forever and ever and ever.


Am                G
Never guessed it got this good
C               F
Wondered if it ever would
Am             G
Really didn't think it could
F                     G             F
Do it all the time? I know that we should!

Apart

Intro: E-D-E-D-E-D  (pause) Em D G Am
        
Em            D          G        Am
every time we do this, I fall for her
Em                    D    G            Am
wave after wave after wave it's all for her
Em                   D                   
i know this can't be wrong i say 
          G
(and i'll lie to keep her happy)
   Am                                       
as long as i know that you 
Em                D
know that today i belong
                G     Am
right here with you,  right here with you...

Em  D   G   Am

       Em
and so we watch the sun come up from 
    D                      G   Am
the edge of the deep green sea
        Em                         D
and she listens like her head's on fire
                             G   Am
like she wants to believe in me
     Em               D            G   Am
so i try     put your hands in the sky
Em         D
surrender, remember
      G               Am
we'll be here forever and 
                Em
we'll never say goodbye...

D   G    Am    Em    D    G    Am

     Em       D
i've never    been so colorfully
G                       Am
see-through-head before
           Em               D              
i've never been (i've never been) so wonderfully
G                   Am
me-you-want-some-more
Em        D                       G
and all i want is to keep it like this
Am                         Em
you and me alone, a secret kiss
             D              G
and don't go home, don't go away
               Am          Em     D   G   
don't let this end, please stay
Am                Em
     not just for today

D   G   Am   Em   D   G   Am

Em                D
never never never never 
       G           Am
let me go she says
Em
hold me like this for a 
D                G       Am
hundred thousand million days
                 Em
but suddenly she slows
                     D
and looks down at my breaking face
G               Am
why do you cry? what did i say?
         Em          D
but it's just rain i smile
G                 Am
brushing my tears away...


Bm                  C
i wish i could just stop
               D                   
i know another moment 
              Em
will break my heart
         Bm              C
too many tears, too many times
         D                     Em
too many years i've cried over you
(NC)
over you, over you?

E  D  E  D  E  D

E                    D
how much more can we use it up?
E             D
drink it dry? take this drug?
E                     D
looking for something forever gone
E                     D
but something we will always want?

(pause)

Em   D   G   Am 
   
Em      D                      G        Am
why why why are you letting me go? she says
  Em               D                G            Am
i feel you pulling back, i feel you changing shape...
    Em                   D
and just as i'm breaking free
    G                Am
she hangs herself in front of me
Em                     D
slips her dress like a flag to the floor
    G                Am
and hands in the sky surrenders it all...


Bm                  C
i wish i could just stop
               D                   
i know another moment

will break my heart

too many tears, too many times
         D                    Em
too many years i've cried over you
     Bm         C                             
it's always the same,
               D
wake up in the rain
        Em            Bm
head in pain, hung in shame
            C                         
a different name, 
         D
same old game,
        Em
love in vain
 (NC)                       
and miles and miles 
                              Em (strum once) 
and miles away from home again...

From The Edge Of The Deep Green Sea

A                               E
oh elise it doesn't matter what you say
                             Bm
I just can't stay here every yesterday
                    D
like keep on acting out the same the way we act out
A
every way to smile forget
    E
and make-believe we never needed
Bm                 D
any more than this any more than this

# A E Bm D A E Bm D

    A                               E
oh elise it doesn't matter what you do
                         Bm
I know i'll never really get inside of you
             D
to make your eyes catch fire the way they should
A
the way the blue could pull me in
        E
if they only would if they only would
   Bm                                        D
at least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else
                A
that hides away from me and you there're worlds to part
     E
with aching looks and breaking hearts
    Bm
and all the prayers your hands can make
   D
oh I just take as much as you can throw
A
and then I throw it all away
E
oh I throw it all away
Bm
like throwing faces at the sky
     D
like throwing arms around
E
yesterday I stood and stared
     F#m
wide-eyed in front of you
    E
and the face I saw looked back
          F#m
the way I wanted to
      E
but I just can't hold my tears away
    F#m
the way you do

  G                   F#m
elise believe I never wanted this
  G                                     F#m
I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises
  G                                F#m
I thought you were the girl always dreamed about
      Bm
but I let the dream go
        D
and the promises broke
                         A
and the make-believe ran out...

# A E Bm D A E Bm D

    A                               E
so elise it doesn't matter what you say
                             Bm
I just can't stay here every yesterday
                    D
like keep on acting out the same the way we act out
A
every way to smile forget
    E
and make-believe we never needed
Bm                 D
any more than this any more than this
    A                           E
and every time I try to pick it up like falling sand
Bm
as fast as I pick it up
         D
it runs away through my clutching hands
            A
and there's nothing else I can really do
E
there's nothing else I can really do
Bm
there's nothing else I can really do
   D
at all...

A Letter To Elise

F#m             E
  (I)   It's a perfect day for letting go
            D                         E
        For setting fire to bridges, boats,
                    F#m             E
        And other dreary worlds you know
            D        A
        Let's get happy!


 (I)    It's a perfect day for making out
        To wake up with a smile without a doubt
        To burst grin giggle bliss skip jump and sing and shout
        Let's get happy!

        Turn everything red and the beat is complete
        With the sound of your world going up in fire
        It's a perfect day to throw back your head
            F#m            E    D-E...
        And kiss it all goodbye

 (I)    It's a perfect day for getting old

   Am           F       C           Dm                    G
Remember how we used to feel, those days  would never end

Those days would never end

Those nights would never end

It was the sweetness of your skin
                       Am               C
it was the hope of all we might have been
                        F              
that filled me with the hope to wish
G                          Am
impossible things
F           G            Am
 To wish impossible things
F               G       Am
To wish impossible things


    Am       F          C        Am      F        C 
But now the sun shines cold and all the sky is grey
    Am        F         C
The stars are dimmed by clouds and tears
    Dm            G              Dm                 G
And all I wish is gone away and all i wish is gone away
   Dm                G
all I wish is gone away

Throwing out your frown and just smiling at the sound

Always take a big bite, it's such a gorgeous sight

To see you eat in the middle of the night

"Show me how you do that trick
    Em                  G
The one that makes me scream" she said
     D                 A
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
    Em               G
And threw her arms around my neck
 D               A
"Show me how you do it
      Em          G
And I promise you I promise that
           D                D
I'll run away with you

I'll run away with you"

INTRO (2x)

D                A
Spinning on that dizzy edge
  Em                  G
I kissed her face and kissed her head
    D                   A               Em
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
            G
To make her glow
D               A               Em
"Why are you so far away?" she said
               G                     D            A
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
            Em             A
That I'm in love with you"

Em
You

Soft and only
Em
You
C
Lost and lonely

You

Strange as angels
G?
Dancing in the deepest oceans
G?
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream

INTRO (2x)

D                  A
Daylight licked me into shape
    Em             G
I must have been asleep for days
    D              A
And moving lips to breathe her name
  Em            G
I opened up my eyes
    D             A
And found myself alone alone
 Em             G
Alone above a raging sea
     D              A
That stole the only girl I loved
    Em                 G
And drowned her deep inside of me

Em
You
C
Soft and only
Em

Lost and lonely

Bm                       A
Yes I know who you remind me of
Bm                       A
A girl I think I used to know
Bm                                A
Yes I'd see her when the day got colder
Bm                                A
On those days when it felt like snow

D                                  A
You know I even think that she stared like you
D                                  A
She used to just stand there and stare
D                               A
And roll her eyes right up to heaven
D                               A
And make like I just wasn't there

G                     E
And she used to fall down a lot
G                           
That girl was always falling
E
Again and again
D                               A
And I used to sometimes try to catch her

But I never even caught her name

D-A-Bm-A
D-A-Bm-A

Bm                               A
And sometimes we would spend the night
Bm                          A
Just rolling about on a floor
Bm
And I remember
                      A
Even though it felt soft at the time
Bm                        A
I always used to wake up sore

D                              A
You know I even think that she smiled like you
D                                A
She used to just stand there and smile
D                                 A
And her eyes would go all sort of far away
D                                 A
And stay like that for quite a while

G                                 E
And I remember she used to fall down a lot
G                               E
That girl was always falling
Again and again

D                                A
And I used to sometimes try to catch her
Bm                          A
But I never even caught her name
D                             A
Yes I sometimes even tried to catch her
Bm                          A
But I never even caught her name

             Em              C         Em          G
I'm not sure if you ever did... if you ever did at all?

D               A
Nothing I think has a point
    Em                   G              Bm
Say you don't quite believe me anymore
         Em               C         Em         G
I wonder if you ever did... if you ever did at all?

A                  G
Gets hard to guess the best way through
A                  Bm              Em
The thing to do if none of this is true
         C           Em
I wish I knew how to undo
            G
The doubt I hide inside
  A
I grew in you..
 (n/c)
The knot I hide inside I tied in you...

D  A  Em  G  Em  C  Em  G (chords w/ solo)

D            A
Nothing I am shows the way
    Em                Em                  Bm
Say you don't seem to know me like before
             Em              C         Em          G
I'm not sure if you ever did... if you ever did at all?

No, Nothing I do makes much sense
    Em               G              Bm
Say you don't really get me anymore
         Em              C         Em          G
I wonder if you ever did... if you ever did at all?

I wish I knew how to undo

The knot I tied in you...
                  G
When more or less the yes and no
A                  Bm           Em
Is all for show it isn't really so...
              C                Em
Look high and low where did we go?
              G             A                D6
You moved too fast or maybe I just moved too slow?

(pause) 

D6              Em
There's so much noise...
        G               A
All the signal seems to fade away
Em       C
Too much noise...
         Em                G
Or could be this is how it always sounds
A                  D6
With nothing left?

start to tell the joke

about the man who couldn't stop

hiccupping...

I would say I?m sorry

If I thought that it would change your mind
A                       Bm
But I know that this time
      C#m
I?ve said too much
        D
Been too unkind 

A              Bm
     I try to laugh about it
A                            Bm
Cover it all up with lies

     I try and
Bm
Laugh about it
A                                   Bm
Hiding the tears in my eyes

Plead with you
A
But I know that
Bm
It?s too late

And now there?s nothing I can do 
A               Bm
   So I try to laugh about it

Saturday night 
        F
And the tap drips 
                Em
Under the strip light 
F
And I'm sitting 
                Em
In the kitchen sink 
F
And the tap drips 
Em
Drip drip drip drip drip drip drip... 

Repeat Main Riff: Dm, C, Bb, C (x2)
Repeat Riff 1: A, G (x4)

F
Waiting 
        Em
For the telephone to ring 
F
And I'm wondering 
            Em
Where she's been 
F                            Em
And I'm crying for yesterday

And the tap drips 
Em
Drip drip drip drip drip drip drip... 
It's always the same...

# Intro:  Am  D   C   D  (x4)

# Verse I:
Am                     D
You want to know why I hate you?
          C              D
Well I~ll try and explain...
     Am                  D
You remember that day in Paris
        C                    D
When we wandered through the rain
    Am               D
And promised to each other
          C                D
That we~d always think the same
    Am                    D               C
And dreamed that dream to be two souls as one
    Am                  D
And stopped just as the sun set
    C              D
And waited for the night
   Am                D
Outside a glittering building
   C                    D
Of glittering glass and burning light...

# Verse II:

# Chorus:
    Bm                 A
The father~s eyes said beautiful
    Bm            A
How beautiful you are
    Bm                  A
The boy~s eyes said how beautiful
    Bm
She shimmers like a star
    Am                   Em
The child~s eyes uttered nothing
    F
But mute and utter joy
    Am                   Em
And filled my heart with shame for us
        F
For the way we are
     Am        Em        F

# Verse III: 
  Am                D
I turned to look at you
           C                  D
To read my thoughts upon your face
    Am              D
And gazed so deep into your eyes
   C              D
So beautiful and strange
  Am                D              C             D
Until you spoke and showed me understanding is a dream
   Am                D
-I hate these people staring
          C             D
Make them go away from me-

# Outro:
    D             Am
And this is why I hate you
    D          Am
And how I understand
     D           Am                 F
That no-one ever knows or loves another
               Am
Or loves another

The Head On The Door

C
Two pale figures

Ache in silence

Timeless
        Am
in the quiet ground

side by side
   Am
in age and sadness

C / Am
   C
I watched
          Am
And acted wordlessly
      C
As piece by piece
            Am
You performed your story
C                 Am
Moving through an unknown past
C               Am
Dancing at the funeral party

Hand in hand with fear and shadows

I heard a song

Noiselessly across the floor

I never thought that I would find myself
   G#m              E       D
In bed amongst the stones

The columns are all men

Begging to crush me

No shapes sail on the dark deep lakes

And no flags wave me home

C
  In the caves

All cats are grey

The textures coat my skin

In the death cell

A single note

Rings on and on and on

i couldn't hear a word you said
i couldn't hear at all
you talked until your tongue fell out
and then you talked some more
i knew if i turned
i'd turn away from you
and i couldn't look back

Floating here like this with you

Underneath the stars alight

For 13 billion years the view
                                               A
It's beautiful, and ours alone tonight

Underneath the stars

C#m
Spinning round and round with you

Watching shadows melt the light
         B
Soft shining from our eyes, into a tear
                                              A
Another space is ours alone tonight

Watching shadows melt

Solo - C#m E

 A                  E

The waves....break

Whisper in my ear, a wish
"We could drift away so far"
Your voice inside my head, a kiss
It's infinite, and ours alone tonight
Watching shadows melt or We could drift away

Solo - C#m E

Flying here like this with you
Underneath the stars alight
For 13 billion years the view
It's beautiful, and ours alone tonight
Underneath the stars


F#m
With everything gone
                A
And all still to come?
                C#m
Together as now
       E
Forever as one

(Same Chords)
In each other's arms
So near and so far
Together as now
Underneath the stars

As the waves....break

  A                 D
I felt like I could die
A            D
Yesterday I got so old
   A               D 
It made me want to cry

A    
Go on go on
     D
Just walk away
   A
Go on go on
     D
Your choice is made
   A
Go on go on
    D 
And disappear
   A
Go on go on
  D
Away from here

      Bm
And I know I was wrong
       E
When I said it was true
        Bm                    E
That it couldn't be me and be her
                   A        D
Inbetween without you
         A        D
Without you

A                   D
Yesterday I got so scared
  A                D
I shivered like a child
A                   D
Yesterday away from you
   A                D
It froze me deep inside

     A
Come back come back
      D
Don't walk away
     A
Come back come back
     D
Come back today
     A
Come back come back
     D
Why can't you see?
     A
Come back come back
     D
Come back to me

      Bm
And I know I was wrong
       E
When I said it was true
        Bm                    E
That it couldn't be me and be her
                   A        D
Inbetween without you
         A        D
Without you

Inbetween Days

[Intro]
A   A

[Verse 1]
A               E          F#m  E   D
When you were staring at your bedroom wall
A           E           D
With only ghosts beside you
A       E               F#m    E    C#m            
Somewhere out where the wind was calling
      D       E            F#m
I was on my way to find you
      D       E            A
I was on my way to find you

A           E            F#m  E   D
And you were racing like a cannonball 
A           E           D
And roller skates and sky blue 
A                E               F#m    E    C#m   
Or in the backseat watching the slow rain falling
      D       E            A
I was on my way to find you

[Chorus]
Bm                    F#m      E
Gotta find out who I'm meant to be 
Bm                    F#m      E
I don't believe in destiny 
Bm                        F#m    D
But with every word you swear to me
C#                         F#m E Bm 
All my beliefs start caving in 
          D        E          E
Then I feel something about to change

[Verse 2]
A           E            F#m  E   D
So bring the lightning bring the fire bring the fall
A           E           D
I know ill get my heart through 
A                E               F#m    E    C#m
Got miles to go but from the day I started crawling
     D       E            A
I was on my way to find you
      D       E            A
I was on my way to find you
      D      E  F#m     D
I was on my way every day 
      D       E            A
I was on my way to find you

To Find You

[Verse]

E
It's two o'clock on the edge of the morning
E                                        A
She's running magical circles around my head
A
I hitch a ride on a dream she's driving
A                                        E
She turns to kiss me, I crash back into bed.


[Verse 2]

E
Across the street on a grayed-out Monday
E                                       A
I see the girl with the eyes I can't describe
A
And suddenly it's a perfect Sunday
A
And everything is more real than life.


[Chorus]

F#m                        B
I think I'm back in the dream
F#m                        B
I think I'm back on the ceiling
F#m                     B
It's such a beautiful feeling.

       E
Going up
              E
She lights me up
              A
She breaks me up
            A
She lets me up.


[Verse 3]

E
You find a mixture of bounding perfection
E                                               A
You've gotta read but you don't wanna reach the end
A
'Cause what if everything beautiful's fiction?
A
And this reality's just pretend?


[Chorus]

F#m                       B
And then I'm back in the dream
F#m                        B
I think I'm back on the ceiling
F#m                     B
It's such a beautiful feeling.

       E
Going up
              E
She lights me up
              A
She breaks me up
            A
She lets me up.


[Bridge]

A          C#m7          B
Up to the stars, she shows me
F#m                                       B
Dame Street, George's Street, miles below me
A           C#m7               F#m            B     E    E    A    A
Up and the world won't let us down. (La la la la)


[Chorus]

       E
Going up (It's two o'clock on the edge of the morning)
               E
She lights me up (She's running magical circles around my head)
              A
She breaks me up (I head to ride on a dream she's driving)
            A
She lets me up

Hey, honestamente te explicaré

El mar, el sol, el gas,

Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy

           D	                              G                                    
Cause the only place that I want to be is right back home with you 


Verse 3:
                 C	             Am		
I guess there's so much more I have to learn
               F	 	                       G		
But if you're here with me, I know which way to turn
        Am         F		                   C
You always give me somewhere, somewhere I can run
Am	            G	       F   C
   You make it real for me 

Chorus:

Am      C              F              C
I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own


            F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?
            F                 C                 G
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
             F                C               G         E7   Am
Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me


Am        C              G         F   
Ow-ow, ah-ah the Bowery, ow-ow, ah-ah whiskey neat
Am          C       G         G
Where y’go, I’m so, grateful, I (it ain’t me)

Am  C  Am       C              F           C
       I had a dream, we were back to seventeen
       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us


             F                    C                G

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

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
