Shh. Just Go With It

Dave - Vocals, Piano Josh - Guitar, Backup Vocals Jimmie - Guitar, Backup Vocals Matt - Bass, Backup Vocals Dennis - Drums  Giving their brand of euphoric rock a sharper, slicker edge, Every Avenue explores themes of lust, temptation and self-acceptance on new album Bad Habits' 10 driving tracks, solidifying their place in the next breed of strong contenders in pop rock. Their third full-length sees the band lacing their infectious melodies with a glimpse of a darker side, embracing their next phase with the passion of a band truly defining their sound and making it their own.

Think Of You Later (in My Empty Room)

VERSE ONE:
           D
It was the type of feeling that, can't be explained
            Bm
The way she moved her lips and it drove me insane
            G                                  D     A
And now I'm left here in the wake of something more
            D
She made it hard to leave as she stood by the door
     Bm
In a v-neck t-shirt and
                    G                            D            A
Nothing more than a single tear Rolling down her cheek. Whoooaaa

CHORUS:
D                                             Bm
Don't go away again, I want to be more than a phone call at 4 A.M.
                          G
Seems like every time you come back home
     A                          D      A
It's just to steal my heart and leave
D                                             Bm
Don't go away again, I want to be more than a story to tell your friends
                          G
Seems like every time you come back home
     A                    D      A
It's just to make me fall again

VERSE TWO:

      D
It's getting hard I know, believe me I feel you
      Bm
When I can't fall asleep knowing your not home
      G                                           D        A
Is it too much to ask, can't you just pick up the phone?
               D
We've had our share of fights
                             Bm
I know its not easy when I'm never home

I have my own dreams
         G                               D      A
Like you have your life planned out back home

CHORUS:

It's just to steal my heart and leave
D                                             Bm
Don't go away again, I want to be more than a story to tell your friends

Seems like every time you come back home
     A                    D
It's just to make me fall again


Bm   A    F#m
And time, will always stand between us and hold you so high
D              A
Just enough to watch you fade
Bm                F#m
Tonight you'll cry yourself asleep
     G                 A
As I lie awake in some far off city
Bm                F#m
Pretend your lying next to me
G              A           G
Eyes wide open dreaming of you.

It's just to steal my heart and leave

A Story To Tell Your Friends

F
I could have been easier on you 
                   C                Dm
I could have been all you held on to
          C       B flat                    C 
I know it wasn't fair, I tried my best to care 
        F
about you 
F
I know I could have been a better man
                   C                  Dm
But I always had to have the upper hand
           C       B flat                    C
I'm struggling to see   the better side of me

pre-chorus
Dm                                      C  
But I cant take all your jabs and taunts
B flat                            C 
Your pointing out my every fault
 Dm                                    C  
And you wonder why I walked away

chorus
F                                                  C
When you tell me I'm a wreck, you say that I'm a mess
                Dm                 B flat
How could you expect anything less
F                            C                B flat
You latched on to me then cried I strung you along
F                                                  C
I told you when you asked, I knew this wouldnt last
                    Dm              B flat
At least I could be honest about that
F                               C                  B flat
And now you're telling everyone how I only did you wrong

I guess you never knew me at all

verse 2 
F               
Remember on my 21st birthday 
                     C                    Dm
You took me where we went on our first date
        C            B flat                            C
we stayed till closing time, after four glasses of wine
F  
You started with a pointless argument
               C                 Dm
Said that I forgot to compliment
               C            B flat                            C
The dress you wore that night, that I've seen a thousand times

pre chorus
Dm                                        C
But I think we just want different things
B flat                                  C
I want space, you want a diamond ring
Dm                                               C
Whatever made you think we were meant to be?

chorus
F                                                  C
When you tell me I'm a wreck, you say that I'm a mess

How could you expect anything less
F                            C                B flat
You latched on to me then cried I strung you along
F                                                  C
I told you when you asked, I knew this wouldnt last
                    Dm              B flat
At least I could be honest about that

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.

Arrows Of Eros

There's a sadness all around us

There are words we're too afraid to say

The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
