G                 Cadd9
I'm staring out into the night,
G                     Cadd9
Trying to hide the pain.
G                  Cadd9
I'm going to the place where love
    Em                   D            Cadd9
And feeling good don't ever cost a thing.
        Em               D              Cadd9
And the pain you feel's a different kind of pain.

G                D
Well I'm going home,
           Cadd9           D
Back to the place where I belong,
               Em             D                Cadd9
And where your love has always been enough for me.
G               D
I'm not running from.
    Cadd9                  D
No, I think you got me all wrong.
Em                   D            Cadd9
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
         Em               D                Cadd9
But these places and these faces are getting old,
                 G      D    Cadd9
So I'm going home.
                  G      Cadd9
Well I'm going home.

G                        Cadd9                 G
The miles are getting longer, it seems,
                     Cadd9
The closer I get to you.
G                                    Cadd9
I've not always been the best man or friend for you.
                         Em
But your love, it makes true.
   D           Cadd9
And I don't know why.
Em                 D             Cadd9
You always seem to give me another try.


G                 D
Well I'm going home,
           Cadd9           D
Back to the place where I belong,
               Em             D              Cadd9            D
And where your love has always been enough for me.
G               D
I'm not running from.
      Cadd9              D
No, I think you got me all wrong.

No, I think you got me all wrong.
         Em                  D             Cadd9
But these places and these faces are getting old,

D                     Cadd9
Be careful what you wish for,
                             Em
'Cause you just might get it all.
                     Cadd9
You just might get it all,
                         D
And then some you don't want.
                      Cadd9
Be careful what you wish for,
                             Em
'Cause you just might get it all.
                      Cadd9
You just might get it all, yeah.

Verse
Dm                      A# 
I'm ten miles from town, and I just broke down
F                 C
Spitting out smoke on the side of the road
Dm                 A#
I'm out here alone, just trying to get home
F                       C 
To tell you I was wrong, but you already know


Pre-Chorus
G       A#
Believe I won't stop for nothin'
G            A#           C
To see you so I've started runnin'


Chorus
A#          F
All that I'm after
C                 Dm
Is a life full of laughter
A#             F            C
As long as I'm laughing with you
A#             F                              C            Dm
And I think that all that still matters is the love and the laughter
A#       C               Dm
After the life we've been through
A#                      C              Dm
'Cause I know there's no life after you

Verse
Dm                      A#                       
The last time we talked, the night that I walked
F           C
Burns like a light in the back of my mind
Dm            A#                   F                 
I must've been high, to say you and I
                C 
weren't meant to be an' just wasting my time


Pre-Chorus
G            A#

G               A#           C
You know, I will die here without you

You and I, right or wrong, there's no other one
F                     C
After this time spent on

It's hard to believe that a man with sight could be so blind
A#                              F                     C
Thinkin' 'bout the better times, must've been outta my mind

As long as I'm laughing with you

And I think that

A#             F                              C            Dm

Life After You

Am  Em

Am                      Em
  Shadows fill an empty heart

As love is fading,
Am                            Em
  From all the things that we are

But are not saying.
Am                       Em
  Can we see beyond the scars
                    D
And make it to the dawn?
Am                         Em
  Change the colors of the sky.

And open up to
Am                            Em
   The ways you made me feel alive,

The ways I loved you.
Am                               Em
  For all the things that never died,
                         D
To make it through the night,
           F
Love will find you.

What about today?

What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
             C         C   Am
What if our love never went away?
         G   F                     C      Dm
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
         C            F
Baby, before it's too late,
             Am   Em   
What about now?


Am                             Em
  The sun is breaking in your eyes

To start a new day.
Am                               Em
  This broken heart can still survive

With a touch of your grace.
Am                        Em
   Shadows fade into the light.
              D
I am by your side,

Where love will find you.

what about now

Now that we're here,

Now that we've come this far,
      Em
Just hold on.
Dm                      Am
   There is nothing to fear,

For I am right beside you.

For all my life,

Feels Like Tonight

G                 Cadd9
I'm staring out into the night,
G                     Cadd9
Trying to hide the pain.
G                  Cadd9
I'm going to the place where love
    Em7               Dsus4          Cadd9
And feeling good don't ever cost a thing.
  Em7                     Dsus4              Cadd9
And the pain you feel's a different kind of pain.

G
Well I'm going home,
           Cadd9           Dsus4
Back to the place where I belong,
               Em7             Dsus4            Cadd9
And where your love has always been enough for me.
G               Dsus4
I'm not running from.
    Cadd9               Dsus4
No, I think you got me all wrong.
Em7                 Dsus4            Cadd9
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
         Em7               Dsus4              Cadd9
But these places and these faces are getting old,
                 G          Cadd9
So I'm going home.
                  G      Cadd9
Well I'm going home.

G                        Cadd9                 G
The miles are getting longer, it seems,
                     Cadd9
The closer I get to you.
G                                    Cadd9
I've not always been the best man or friend for you.
                         Em7
But your love, it makes true.

And I don't know why.
Em7                 Dsus4          Cadd9
You always seem to give me another try.


G
Well I'm going home,
           Cadd9           Dsus4
Back to the place where I belong,
               Em7             Dsus4            Cadd9
And where your love has always been enough for me.
G               Dsus4
I'm not running from.
      Cadd9              Dsus4
No, I think you got me all wrong.

Well I'm going home,

No, I think you got me all wrong.
         Em7               Dsus4             Cadd9
But these places and these faces are getting old,

Dsus4                     Cadd9
Be careful what you wish for,

'Cause you just might get it all.

Em7                 Dsus4            Cadd9
I don't regret this life I chose for me.

verse 1:
D   
 Now that it's all said and done,
A
 I can't believe you were the one
Bm
 To build me up then tear me down,
G
 Like an old abandoned house.
D
 What you said when you left
A
 Just left me cold and out of breath.
Bm 
 I fell too far, was in way too deep.
F                        G-A
Guess I let you get the best of me.

D
Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
  A
A long, long time ago.
       Bm
And I never thought to doubt you;
I'm better off without you
 G
More than you, more than you know.
   D
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
    A
I'm finally getting better.
             Bm
And now I'm picking up the pieces
And spending all of these years
 G
Putting my heart back together.
F
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
G
 I got over you.

verse 2:
(same pattern as in verse 1)
You took a hammer to these walls,
Dragged the memories down the hall,
Packed your bags and walked away.
There was nothing I could say.
And when you slammed the front door shut,
A lot of others opened up,
So did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for me.

D
Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
  A
A long, long time ago.
       Bm
And I never thought to doubt you;
I'm better off without you
 G
More than you, more than you know.
   D
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
    A
I'm finally getting better.
             Bm
And now I'm picking up the pieces
And spending all of these years
 G
Putting my heart back together.
F
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
G
 I got over you.

(acoustic feel here)

D
Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
  A
A long, long time ago.
       Bm
And I never thought to doubt you;
I'm better off without you
G(distort)
More than you, more than you know.

D
Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
  A
A long, long time ago.
       Bm
And I never thought to doubt you;

 G
More than you, more than you know.

Over You

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,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's 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

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah, 
     F#                      E       B   F#
I'm going where the people know my name

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

to remind yourself that you forgot

        Bm            A                   D
I know these roof top nights could last forever.
              A                            Bm
we watched the seasons change, we saw the distance pull us away,
           A
from all we shared together.

D                    A
I picked apart every word that you said
  Bm                              A
I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
D                         A
the way you are leaves me counting the days
        Bm                            A
till the next time this distance will be a memory

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.

Gonna Be A Long Time

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.
