Intro
Bm  G  D  F#

Verse 1

Bm
Oh the wind whistles down  
    G
The cold dark street tonight
        D                        F#
And the people they were dancing to the music vibe
        Bm
And the boys chase the girls

With the curls in their hair
        G
And the shy tormented youth sit way over there
        D
And the songs they get louder
                       F#
Each one better than before

Chorus 

Bm
And you're singing the songs

Thinking this is the life
                       G        
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
                D
Where you gonna go

Where you gonna go
                        F#
Where you gonna sleep tonight
Bm
And you're singing the songs

Thinking this is the life
        G
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
D
Where you gonna go

Where you gonna go
                      F#
Where you gonna sleep tonight


Bridge

Bm  G  D  F#




Verse  

Bm
So you're heading down the road

In your taxi for four
           G
And you're waiting outside Jimmy's front door
    D                                  F#
But nobody's in and nobody's home 'til four
          Bm
So you're sitting there with nothing to do 
 G
Talking about Robert Riger and his motley crew
    D									 F#
And where you're gonna go and where you're gonna sleep tonight

Repeat Chorus 

Repeat Bridge twice

D               A
I don't know if you can see
    D                      G
the changes that have come over me
         D                  A
in these last few days I've been afraid
     D              G
that I might drift away
             D                    A
so I've been telling old stories, singing songs
     D                   G
that make me think about where I came from
    D                 A
and that's the reason why I seem
   D          G
so far away today

Chorus

       D                      A
ah but let me tell you that I love you
      D                       G
and I think about you all the time
G                D                      A     D
Caledonia you're calling me and now I'm going home
D                        A
but if I should become a stranger
              D                          G
you know that it would make me more than sad
G                A                    D
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had

I have moved and kept on moving
proved the points that I needed proving
lost the friends that I needed losing
found others on the way
I have kissed the ladies, left them crying
stolen dreams, yes there's no denying
I have travelled hard, sometimes with conscience flying
somewhere in the wind

CHORUS

Now I'm sitting here before the fire
the empty room, the forest choir
the flames that couldn't get any higher
they've withered, now they've gone
but I'm steady thinking, my way is clear
and I know what I will do tomorrow
the hands have shaken and the kisses flow
now I will disappear

CHORUS

I Got No Roots

G
Oh my dance is getting slower now
          D
'cause my years they're getting older now.
       Am                                   C
And my eyes, they won't cry. My tears have all run dry.

       G
And my memory doesn't get me very far,
           D
I can't remember my name or exactly who you are.
      Am                     C
And I don't know why, no I don't know why.

         G                          D
Will you please believe I'm not the person you see,
                  Am                           C
I left that body long ago. I left it way back there.

         G                      D
Will you please believe, given all that you see,
                 Am                      C
I left that body long ago, but somehow nobody knows.

       G                             D
So goodbye, you were my world and my life.
                  Am                                    C
And I don't know why you've lost your mother, lost your wife.

            G                                   D
But there's more, something more than meets the eye.
                Am                    C
This is not the end, this is only goodbye.

         G                           D
Will you please believe I'm not the person you see,
                  Am                           C
I left that body long ago. I left it way back there.

        G                         D
Now I'm free, I'm as happy as can be.
                     Am                         C
I just wanted you to know that I left that body long ago.

So long ago.

Who said life was easy,
Who said life was fair,
Who said no one gives a dam,
And no one even cared.

The way you're acting now,
Like you left that all behind.
You've given up,
You've given in,
And I'm a sucker of that kind.

Some kind of Poison Prince,
With your eyes in daze.
Some kind of Poison Prince,
Your life is like a maze.

And what we all want and what we all crave,
Is an upbeat song ,
So that we can dance the night away.

Some kind of Poison Prince,

Amy wrote this song the day after seeing Peter Doherty perform at the glasgow barrowland.

Spark is the second single from Amy Macdonald

Intro- C Em Am G F
C Am F
Hoy encuentro tu imagen en el mismo lugar
C Am F
como en sueños inciertos te estoy viendo llegar
C Am F
ya no hay luz de escena, ya no estas
C Am
me sorprende tu voz y nuestra
F
historia de amor, en la melodia
C Am F
soñamos con cambiar el dia, la oscuridad, la cancion
C Em Am G F
pero nunca supimos amar
C Em Am G F
Un amor que se murio no puede lastimar
C Em Am G F
nuestro amor que se perdio en el mar

Es de noche, hay silencio, necesito hablar
y una lluvia de invierno se quedo con mi soledad
el mundo podía desaparecer
mientras nuestra nabe volaba hacia nuevos lugares
buscabamos vida
tratamos de disimular, locura y propiedad
pero nunca supimos amar
un amor que se murio no puede lastimar
nuestro amor que se perdio en el mar

Malicia en tus sueños, me hacias volar
tu cuerpo y el mio guardaron secretos
y una rara armonia
Un amor que se murio no puede lastimar
si tu amor no se murio, por favor, donde esta?
Un amor que se murio no puede lastimar
nuestro amor que se perdio en el mar

Buscabamos vida

G      Em
I found a love for me
               C                         D
Darling just dive right in, and follow my lead
                G                 Em
Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet
          C                                  D
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me

                                 G
Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
              Em                     C               G  D
Not knowing what it was, I will not give you up this ti-ime
                   G                         Em
But darling just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
             C                  D
And in your eyes you’re holding mine

       Em   C            G          D              Em
Baby, I’m dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
C                G     D                Em
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
          C                G                 D              Em
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
         C                G        D             
But you heard it, darling you look perfect tonight

               G                    Em
Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
                C                                        D
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I’ll share her home
           G             Em
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
         C                              D
To carry love, to carry children of our own

                              G                     Em 
We are still kids, but we’re so in love, fighting against all odds
                  C               G  D
I know that we’ll be alright this ti-ime
               G                            Em 
Darling just hold my hand, be my girl, I’ll be your man
          C              D
I see my future in your eyes



       Em   C            G          D              Em
Baby, I’m dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
C                G     D                Em
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
          C                G                 D               Em
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
         C                G        D

I went to a party at the local county jail
D                                              G
All the cons were dancing and the men began to wail
        A                              G
But the guys were indiscrete they were balling in the street
       D                  A             D    A
At the local dance at the local county jail
D                                                 G
Well the band were playing and the booze began to flow
D                                         G
But the sound came over on the police car radio
A                            G
Down at Precinct 49 having a tear gas of a time
D                                  A                      D   A
Sergeant Baker got a call from the governor of the County Jail
 
Bm                                  G

          Em                  A
I love to hear those convicts squeal
         Em                    A
It's a shame these slugs ain't real
       D                         A             D   A
But we can't have dancing at the local county jail

D                                                 G
Sergeant Baker and his men made a beeline for the jail
D                                              G
And for miles around you could hear the sirens wail
          A                                  G
There's a rumour going down death row that a fuse is going to blow
       D                A            D
At the local hop at the local county jail 
                                          Eb
What you gonna do about it what you gonna do

G   A   C   D

D
Sergeant Baker started talking with a bullhorn in his hand
Dm
He was cool he was clear he was he was always in command
        G                               Em      A
He said blood will flow here padre 
Em        F#m          G
Padre you talk to your boys
G        A  D   A    D   Eb  Em F#m  C
Trust in me God will come to set you free 

F F# G G# A Bb B

D                                                       G
Well we don't understand why he called in the National Guard
D                                                     G
When Uncle Sam is the one who belongs in the exercise yard
A                   
We all got balls and brains
G
But some's got balls and chains
D                         A            D      A
At the local dance at the local county jail

Load up load up load up with rubber bullets
Bm                                  G
Load up load up load up with rubber bullets
      Em            A           Em               A
Is it really such a crime for a guy to spend his time
       D                  A            D
At the local dance at the local county jail
       D                  A            D
At the local dance at the local county jail

 No one's moving, we lack the courage to

We lay in stalemate, wishing the other would

Oh we don't bend or break it
    F      Gm       D#   A#
The space between is deafening



Bridge:
Am       A#      Gm               C
 No more fighting, we've given up now
Dm            D#        A#
 Silence says more than words
Am     A#  Gm           C
 Imagination cures loneliness when
Dm            D#      A#
 You become a prisoner



Chorus:
F       Gm      D#  A#
Feel the void in our bed
    F      Gm       D#   A#
The space between is deafening
   F       Gm      Dm    A#
Oh we don't bend or break it
    F      Gm       D#   A#
The space between is deafening

Space Between

C                        F 
Back in the old folky days
Am            Em              D
The air was magic when we played
C                                   F
The river boat was rocking in the rain
Am                Em            D
Midnight was the time for the raid
G
Oh Isabella, Proud Isabella
Am
They tore you down and plowed you under
Bm                             C
You're only real with your makeup on
G                 D
How could I see you and stay too long

C                        F
All along the Navaho Trail
Am                  Em                 D
burnouts stub their toes on garbage pails
C                          F
Waitresses crying in the rain
Am                   Em                 D
Will their boyfriends pass this way again?
G 
Oh Mother Goose, she's on the skids
Am
the shoe* ain't happy neither are the kids  
Bm                        C
She needs someone that she can scream at
G                    D
And I'm such at heel for making her so bad

C                                F
I guess I'll call it sickness gone
Am                   Em                D
It's hard to say the meaning to this song
C                              F
An ambulance can only go so fast
Am               Em               D
It's easy to get buried in the past
C                                  F
When you try to make a good thing last
Am   Em   D

G
I saw today, in the entertainment section
Am
There's room at the top for private detection
Bm             C
To Mom and Dad this just doesn't matter
G                    D
But it's either that or pay off the kidnappers
C                          F
So all you critics sit alone
Am                    Em                        D
You're no better than me for what  you've shown
C                                               F
With your stomach pump and your hook and ladder dreams
Am                 Em               D
We could get together for some scenes

G
Well I'm up in T.O.  keepin' jive alive
Am
and out on the corner it's half past five
Bm                        C
But the subways are empty and so are the cafes
G                              D
Except for the Farmer's Market and I can still hear him sayin'
C                                  F
"You're all just pissin' in the wind
Am             Em             D
You don't know it but you are"
C                              F
And there ain't nothing like a friend
Am                           Em              D
Who can tell you you're just pissin' in the wind

G
I never knew a man could tell so many lies
Am
he had a different story for every set of eyes
Bm                  C
How can he remember who he's talking to?
G                        D                        G(hold)
Cause I know it ain't me and I hope it isn't you

Ambulance Blues

F                    G      C      Am G
The world is treating me bad... misery. 

C               F
I'm the kind of guy,
    C             F
Who never used to cry,
                         G      C     Am G
The world is treatin' me bad... misery

C                     F
I've lost her now for sure,
  C                F  
I won't see her no more,
                G       C
It's gonna be a drag... misery

Am                           C           
I'll remember all the little things we've done
Am                                 G         G7
Can't she see she'll always be the only one, only one.


C                F
Send her back to me,
       C            F
'Cause everyone can see
                   G     C
Without her I will be in misery


Am                           C
I'll remember ...


C                F
Send her back to me...

Misery

Gm 
Hoje eu tive um sonho que foi o mais bonito 
Que eu sonhei em toda a minha vida 
Sonhei que todo mundo vivia preocupado 
Tentando encontrar uma saída 
 Cm              G            Bb 
Quando em minha porta alguém tocou 
 D7                          Gm 
Sem que ela se abrisse ele entrou 
 Cm         F           Bb          Eb 
E era algo tão divino, luz em forma de menino 
 Ab                   D7 
Que uma canção me ensinou 
G 
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la 
                            D 
La la la la la la la la la la 
                            Gm 
La la la la la la la la la la 
 Gm 
Tinha na inocência a sabedoria 
Da simplicidade e me dizia 
Que tudo é mais forte quando todos cantam 
A mesma canção e que eu devia 
 Cm        F         Bb 
Ensinar a todos por ali 
  D7                            Gm 
E quantos mais houvessem para ouvir 
   Cm            F          Bb        Eb 
E a fé em cada coração, na força daquela canção 
  Ab                        D7 
Seria ouvida lá no céu por Deus 
 G 
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la 
                            D 
La la la la la la la la la la 
                            Gm 
La la la la la la la la la la 
 Gm 
E saí cantando meu pequeno hino 
Quando vi que alguém também cantava 
Vi minha esperança na voz de um menino 
Que sorrindo me acompanhava 
 Cm             F          Bb 
Outros que brincavam mais além 
   D7                         Gm 
Deixavam de brincar pra vir também 
   Cm           F          Bb        Eb 
E cada vez crescia mais aquele batalhão de paz 
 Ab                        D7 
Onde já marchavam mais de cem 
G 
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la 
                            D 
La la la la la la la la la la 
                            G  D#7 
La la la la la la la la la la 
 G#m 
De todos os lugares vinham aos milhares 
E em pouco tempo eram milhões 
Invadindo ruas, campos e cidades 
Espalhando amor aos corações 
 C#m           F#         B 
Em resposta o céu se iluminou 
 D#7                G#m 
Uma luz imensa apareceu 
 C#m               F#         B           E 
Tocaram fortes os sinos, os sons eram divinos 
  D#7                    G#m 
A paz tão esperada aconteceu 
  C#m           F#       B            E 
Inimigos se abraçaram e juntos festejaram 
  A                           D#7 
O bem maior, a paz, o amor e Deus 
 G# 
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la 
                           D# 
La la la la la la la la la la 
                           G# 
La la la la la la la la la la

A Guerra Dos Meninos

E B
Yo seré lo que tú quieras que sea
C#m G#m
seré tu amante cuando tú lo prefieras
A E B
cuando revientes en llantos róbame un abrazo tal vez algo más..
E B
No te preocupes por quitarme la vida
C#m G#m
me la devuelves cuando tu lo decidas
A E B
y que no importe si el viento en otro momento nos vuelve a juntar...

A B E
y ya no estás arañándome la espalda,
G#m A E B
no me importa lo que hagas, si tu quieres vuelveme a esperar
(E-B-C#m-G#m-A-E-B)x2
eh eh eh...

G#m A (B-A)
Si vuelvo a sufrir ...!que me coman a besos!
A E A E
doy gracias por amarme, y por abandonarme
A G#m A B E
en lugar de tu amor escogí una luz para poder consolarme

Yo seré lo que tu quieras ....
Yo seré lo que tú quieras...

Por el momento y situacion en la cual escuche este tema me senti un tonto
he jurado no volver a cometer los mismos errores del pasado
es mi turno de recompensarte por todo lo que hiciste por mí
ahora yo te la dedico KaRyKatu my liebe....
