G
I woke up thinking you were still here

C
My hands shaking with regret

G
I've held this dream for such a long long time

                   Em
And I wanna get up

                       C                         D
To the rhythm of a wild, to the rhythm of a wild heart

That beats, that beats like a rolling drum

G
I saw you standing on the corner

C
I saw you standing on your own

G
And I get the feeling that it's, it's all a dream

                  Em
And I wanna get up

                       C                         D
To the rhythm of a wild, to the rhythm of a wild heart
That beats, that beats like a drum

G
When I fall asleep I can see your face

        C
What I lost in you I will not replace 
Em
And I could run away, I could let them down
    C        D
But I will remember your light

G
Your light it follows me in darkness

C
I'm trying hard but I can't win

G
And I've played the victim for a long long time
                   Em
And I wanna grow up
                       C                              D
From the rhythm a young, from the rhythm of a younger heart
It leads just like a river runs

G
That night I sent over the parkway

C
The summer's gone and I'm alone

G
And I get the feeling that you're somewhere close
                  Em
And I wanna get up
                          C                            D
To the rhythm of your wild, to the rhythm of your wild heart
It beats, been beating since you've gone

G
When I fall asleep I can see your face

        C
What I lost in you I will not replace 
            Em
And I could run away, I could let them down
    C         D
But I will remember
       G
When I fall asleep I can see your face
        C
What I lost in you I will not replace 
            Em
And I could run away, I could let them down
    C             D              C        D           Em
And I know you're gone but still I will remember your light

G        D      Em
I will remember   [x4]

G
And if you see me in the darkness
C
I hope you know I'm not alone
G
I carry you with every breath I take
         Em              C            D           
I won't let up, I won't let up      ohhh
                  G
Until the wind is gone

 C
Yeah, we talk about getting older
                                 Dm
But there's so much we haven't done yet
 Em                                                      C
Some days, I'm not here, I don't get dressed
                            Em          C                Dm
And I cursed my bedroom but I left it all alone
                                      G                                                           C
'Cause all this time I'm runaway, runaway, runaway, runaway, gone

[Pre-Chorus 1]

And everyone is changing

I picked up a quarter and I just saw my face

But it's all coming back now

Those days when I'd sit on my sister's rooftop
                              Dm 
Watching our city burn into the night
G                                                         C
I'm not sure that we were meant to survive

I was sixteen in a van driving myself to Florida
D
Part of me never left that seat 'cause
G                                                               C

I Miss Those Days

Intro- E Bsus4 A Bsus4 (2x)

Couplet 1
E                          Bsus4
Hey I hear the voice of a preacher from the back room.

A                      Bsus4
Calling my name and I follow just to find you.

E                          Bsus4              A                 Bsus4
I trace the faith to a broken down television and put on the weather.

E                              Bsus4
And i've trained myself to give up on the past.

A                               Bsus4
Cause I frozen time between hearses and caskets.

E                       Bsus4
Lost control when I panicked at the acid test.

A               Bsus4
I wanna get better.

E                            Bsus4                                A
While my friends were getting high and chasing girls down parkway lines I was

   Bsus4
losing my mind.

E                                     Bsus4                     A     Bsus4
Cause the love, the love, the love, the love, the love that I gave wasted on a nice face.

E              Bsus4                     A                            Bsus4
In a blaze of fear I put a helmet on a helmet counting seconds through the night and got 
carried away.

(no chords)
So now I'm standing on the overpass screaming at the cars: Hey, I wanna get better!

Refrain
E        Bsus4         A          Bsus4          E
I didn't know I was lonely til I saw your face.

             Bsus4    A               Bsus4               E
I wanna get better,better, better, better, I wanna get better.

E          Bsus4        A           Bsus4         E
I didn't know I was broken til I wanted to change.

             Bsus4    A               Bsus4               E
I wanna get better,better, better, better, I wanna get better.

Couplet 2
E                                Bsus4
I go up to my room and there's girls on the ceiling.

A                             Bsus4
Cut out their pictures and I chase that feeling

E                                Bsus4
of an eighteen year old, who didn't know what loss was.

A                   Bsus4
Now I'm a stranger.

E                           Bsus$
And I miss the days of a life still permanent.

A                 Bsus4                     E
Mourn the years before I got carried away.

(no chords)
So now I'm staring at the interstate, screaming at myself: hey, I wanna get better!

Refrain
E        Bsus4         A          Bsus4          E
I didn't know I was lonely til I saw your face.

             Bsus4    A               Bsus4               E
I wanna get better,better, better, better, I wanna get better.

E          Bsus4        A           Bsus4         E
I didn't know I was broken til I wanted to change.

             Bsus4    A               Bsus4               E
I wanna get better,better, better, better, I wanna get better.

Bridge
F#                                   Bsus4
Cause I'm sleeping in the back of a taxi.

                                 F#
I'm screaming from my bedroom window.

                    Bsus4
Even if it's gonna kill me.

E Bsus4 A Bsus4(4x)

E                      Bsus4
Woke up this morning early before my family.

A                        Bsus4
From this dream where she was trying to show me.

E                Bsus4               A                   Bsus4
How a life can move from the darkness, she said to get better.

   E                       Bsus4                     A                  Bsus4
So I, put a bullet where I shoulda out a helmet and I, crash my car cause I wanna get 
carried away.

E                                         Bsus4              (no chords)
That's why I'm standing on the overpass screaming at myself, hey, I wanna get better!

Refrain
E        Bsus4         A          Bsus4          E
I didn't know I was lonely til I saw your face.

             Bsus4    A               Bsus4               E
I wanna get better,better, better, better, I wanna get better.

E          Bsus4        A           Bsus4         E
I didn't know I was broken til I wanted to change.

             Bsus4    A               Bsus4               E
I wanna get better,better, better, better, I wanna get better.

Dont Take The Money intro

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

C D A
Oh what's in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know, I don't know anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time.
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time.
You, where were you, you weren't listening, gonna be a long time.
Gonna be a long time.

when you think there's no reason to try
               D                           A
and you hate yourself and wanna die

A                                      E
when you're filled with anxiety
             D                   A
and everyone's your enemy
A                                        E
when you wish you were someone else
                 D                        A
and you wanna go out and kill yourself

when you get yourself depressed

because you think you can't do your best
A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song

to remind yourself that you forgot

time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.
