INTRO :
D - Bm - Em - G - A

VERSE :

D
You know that something inside of you
Bm                                         Em
Still plays a part in what i do, always
      G     A
I'm here for you
D
I think that if we were all we had
Bm                                                           Em
That's more than most people ever have, anyway
                                G     A
Oh anyway, you can stay here


CHORUS :

Bm                       G                          D                        F#
I know you're still there because you're scared that you'll lose everybody
I know you're still there because you're scared that you'll lose everything
I know you're still there because you're scared


VERSE :

I'm here if you're scared to go through
Anything just reach out in front of you, always
Won't you stay near
So close we played it as if we cared
Don't stop now that we're almost there, anyway
Oh i'm here for you

Scared

Intro: E A B A B x2

A         B
Though it took me by surprise 
A         B
One by one I realized
A         B                 A     B 
There was something I could do 

E
"I lost my way."

A          B
Lost control of what I had

All my thoughts left one by one

There are things I could've told you
D                   A
There's a time and a place
D                    Bm

There were flowers pressed to my face
D                     Bm
And in time you will forget me
D                 A         D
And I'll try and do the same

  Down by the riv-er 

Didn't feel too good all night
So we took a walk in the morning light
Came across the strangest sight
Down by the river

Silver fish lay on its side
It was washed up by the early tide
I wonder how it died
Down by the river

Down by the river
Down by the river
Silver fish lay on its side
Down by the river

Doctor put us both to bed
He dosed us up and he shook his head
Only foolish people go, he said
Down by the river

Why do willows weep, said he
Because they're dying gradually
From the waste, from the factories
Down by the river

Down by the river
Down by the river
Why do willows weep, said he
Down by the river

In time, the river banks will die
The reeds will wilt and the ducks won't fly
There'll be a tear in the otter's eye
Down by the river

The banks will soon be black and dead
And where the otter raised his head
Will be a clean white stone instead
Down by the river

Down by the river
Down by the river
Will be a clean white stone instead
Down by the river

Down By The River

capo on the first fret. if you dont have a capo, 
tune your uke to G#, C#, F, A#

This is the other guitar part in the song that is acoustically
played on ukulele
even if you have a capo on, stay on the same frets as the tab

to chords

By the way she looked, I shouldve calmed down

Oh, thats all Ive got to say

King Creole

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.
