Gb                                               C     
Some belong to strangers, and some to folks you know.
Gb                                                  C
Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand

Nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop and an illustrated book about birds.

You see a lot up there, but don't be scared.

Who needs action when you got words?



Gb
When you've finished with the mop then you can stop
                         C
and look at what you've done.
Gb
The plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen,
                     C
and the work, it was fun.

Some say it was Greenland and some say Mexico.
Gb                                                    C
Others decided it was nowhere, except for where they stood.

Where Did You Sleep Last Night

D               F
I'll start this off 
    Em      D
Without any words

I got so high that 
  Em               D
I scratched 'til I bled

I know it's wrong 
   Em            D
So what should I do? 

    G      F
The finest day 
     Em     D
That I ever had 
    G      F
Was when I learned 
   Em        D
To cry on command 

C    Bm
Love myself 
A           D
Better than you

I'm on a plain 

D  G      F
My mother died 
Em    D
Every night 
     G       F
It's safe to say 
Em                D
Don't quote me on that 

C    Bm
Love myself 
A           D
Better than you 
  G         F
I know it's wrong 
   Em            D
So what should I do? 

G               F
The black sheep got 
Em          D
Blackmailed again 
G         F
Forgot to put 
Em         D
On the zip code 

C    Bm
Love myself

Better than you

So what should I do? 


F   E                       A-G-F
Somewhere I have heard this before
     E                   A-G
In a dream my memory has stored 
F   E                       A-G
As defense I'm neutered and spayed 
F        E                   A-G
What the hell am I trying to say?

Mom and Dad went to a show
They dropped me off at Grandpa Joe's
I kicked and screamed, said please, don't go

Chorus:A              C
Gramma take me home (8x)

Had to eat my dinner there
Mashed potatoes and stuff that
Couldn't chew my meat too good

Chorus

Said why don't you stop crying
Go outside and ride your bike
That's what I did, I killed my toad

Chorus

After dinner I had ice cream
Fell asleep and watched TV
Woke up in my mother's arms

Gb Bb B G

Gb        Bb           B      G
xxx xxx x xxxx xxxxxxx xx heart

Tourette's

I use picking when playing this jam... but can't type that out here.. So, good luck! Id also like to wish you luck in figuring out what chord I'm speaking of when I attempt to describe this thing.
Fret3/4th string , fret 2/2nd string, Fret 1/ hold both the 3rd and 1st strings. (I think its some upside down F ??) It will be abbreviated as (UF)
Then there is a weird E? (I play by ear).. (sorry)  its 1st fret/4th string, 2nd fret/ 1st string , 4th fret/ 3rd string.. It will be abbreviated as (UE) for unknown E

The E chord that is repeated throughout the verses is a standard E but muting out the 2nd fret/ 1st string

 Opening: (Picking) 
B7 E (UF) E
 
 Verse:

 B7                                 E                 (UF)                 E
Teenage Angst has paid off well, now I'm bored and old.
B7                  E                             (UF)                (UE)
I tried hard to have a father but instead I had a dad
B7                    E                      (UF)                     E
I just want you to know that I don't hate you anymore
       B7                     E                    (UF)                         A    
And there is nothing I can say that I haven't thought before

Chorus:
G               B              G      
Serve the servants No more
G               B              G       
Serve the servants no more
G               B                     A                  (UF)                  A7

De nada dudes ya
Hey, honestamente te explicaré 
de natural modo cada fenómeno
El mar, el sol, el gas, 
oh, ese es Maui hablando de más
Anguilas que, yo las enterré, 
de la palmera los cocos creé
Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy
Am
  El tapiz que en mi piel se ve, 
F
  es el mapa de lo que gané
C
  Por donde fui provoqué mil sucesos

  Ve al pequeñín mini Maui nomás zapateando,
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ¡Hey!

Muy lejos navegaré, de nada (de nada)

I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
         C                              D
To carry love, to carry children of our own

We are still kids, but we’re so in love, fighting against all odds

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  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
