# Start by strumming Em
                                 F
I sense there's something in the wind
                B7           Em
That feels like tragedy's at hand
     D7         G            F
And though I'd like to stand by him
                 B7             Em
Can't shake this feeling that I have
     D7      G                F
The worst is just around the bend

             Em         B7
And does he notice
            Am          F   
my feelings toward him
            Em   
and will he see
    B7                Am
how much he means to me
   B7               Em
I think It's not to be

                             F
What will become of my dear friend
                B7             Em
Where will his actions lead us then
    D7        G                F
Although I'd like to join the crowd
          B7          Em
In their enthusiastic cloud
  D7      G              Em             
Try as I may, it doesn't last

             Em      B7
And will we ever
       Am           F
End up together
           Em       
No i think not
       B7      Am
 It's never to become
    B7           Em
For i am not the one

How could I be so blind?

All is lost, where was I?

Bbm     Fm    Bbm     Fm
Spoiled all, spoiled all

Everything's gone all wrong

But I never intended all this madness, never

     Em                  Cm
And nobody really understood, how could they?

     C#m
That all I ever wanted was to bring them something great
Why does nothing ever turn out like it should?

F#7    Bm       G                Em      F#7
Well, what the heck, I went and did my best

And, by God, I really tasted something swell

          C#m       F#m6        Gdim7        Ab
And for a mo-ment, why, I even touched the sky

        Bbm              F7                Bbm
And at least I left some sto-ries they can tell, I did

            F7                       Abm      Gdim7
And for the first time since I don't remember when

I felt just like my old bony self again

   Gdim7   Bbm                      Gm6
And I,    Jack, the Pumpkin King
That's right, I am the Pumpkin King, ha, ha, ha

And I just can't wait until next Halloween

'Cause I've got some new ideas

And, by God, I'm really gonna give it all my might

This Is Halloween

Em    C          Em       C
Oh, Alice dear where have you been

    Em      C         A
So near so far so inbetween

      C         Em                 C
What have you heard what have you seen

  A            Em
Alice, please Alice!

Alice's Theme

Bm           Bmaj7         Bm7         A
There are few who would deny at what I do I am the best
       G           F#       G   A   Bm
For my talents are renowned far and wide.
        Bm         Bmaj7         Bm6     A
When it comes to surprises in the moonlit night
  G             F#   G    Bm
I excel without ever even trying.
         Bm               Bmaj7       Bm7       A
With the slightest little effort of my ghostlike charm
     G          F#       G   Am Bm
I've seen grown men give out a shriek
       Bm         Bmaj7     Bm7         A
With a wave of my hand and a well placed moan
       G         F#           G   Am    Bm
I have swept the very bravest off their feet.
    G          F#             G        F#
Yet year after year, it's the same old cheer
      G       F#           Em       A7
And I grow so weary of the sound of screams
    Bm  Bmaj7    A    G   F#
And I,  Jack, the Pump-kin King
     G        F#           G       F#
Have grown so tired of the same old thing
    Bm        Bmaj7 Bm7             A
Oh, somewhere deep   inside of these bones
   G   F#    Em       F#
An emptiness began to grow
        Bm        Bmaj7     Bm7         A
There's something out there, far from my home
  G       F#        F#    Bm2
A longing that I've never known
      Bm        Bmaj7        Bm7      A
I'm a master of fright, and a demon of light
         G               F#  G  Am   Bm
And I'll scare you right out of your pants
     Bm     Bmaj7        Bm7    A
To a guy in Kentucky, I'm Mister Unlucky
        G                F#      G   Bm
And I'm known throughout England and France
    Bm         Bmaj7      Bm7         A
And since I am dead, I can take off my head
   G      F#    G    Am   Bm
To recite Shakespearean quotations
   Bm         Bmaj7  Bm7           A
No animal nor man can scream like I can
         G          F# G  Bm
With the fury of my recitations

G       F#         G         F#
But who here would ever understand
         G       F#            Em       A7
That the Pumpkin King with the skeleton grin
      Bm   Bmaj7    A              A    G    F#
Would tire of    his crown, if they only understood
     G           F#       G    F#
He'd give it all up if he only could
    Bm         Bmaj7 Bm7         A
Oh, there's an empty  place in my bones
     G         F#      Em    A
That calls out for something unknown
    Bm       Bmaj7      Bm7        A
The fame and praise come year after year
     G       F#        F#7   Bm2
Does nothing for these empty tears

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,

by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

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!

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.
