Thinking About You

D                      B      
If we'd never met, I'd probably be
D                 D7                 G
Wandering aimless-ly if we'd never met
     Gm                  D             B                G
This life, no I just wouldn't get what I wanted out of it
Gm
If we'd never..
D                     B
If we'd never met, my hopes and my dreams,
D                    D7                           G
They'd all be just beyond my reach if we'd never met
      Gm                 D             B               G  Gm
Oh it would be so hard to believe how easy love could be

                   G                   A                 A(dwn) D(up)
If we'd never met, I hope you feel the same way I do
G                                   A                    A(dwn) D(up)
But even if you don't I can't say I blame you
G                        Gm
Cause I'm the crazy one, you're the amazing one
D                            B                   G        Gm
And you're the only one I've ever given my heart to 
Gm
So if we'd never..

D                           D
If we'd never met, my heart would go bad
D                     D7                   G
Expiring without your hand oh we'd never met
      Gm                 D             B            G  Gm
My love would sit high on the shelf just singing to him-self

                   G                   A              A(dwn) D(up)
If we'd never met, I hope you feel the same way I do
G                                   A                 A(dwn) D(up) 
But even if you don't I can't say I blame you
G                        Gm
Cause I'm the crazy one, you're the amazing one
D                            B                   G        Gm 
And you're the only one I've ever given my heart to
Gm
So if we'd never

G
If we had never met 
Gm
Life would be colorless 
D                                       A  D   B   G
I doubt that I could ever love another, no one but you
D           G    Gm
I'm glad we met, aren't you? 
x2

D                      B
If we'd never met, I'd probably be 
D                 D7                  G
Wandering aimless-ly, if we'd never met
   Gm                     D              B          G  Gm
My love, it'd sit high on the shelf just singing to my-self

                      G                    A                A(dwn) D(up) 
So if we'd never met, I hope you feel the same way I do
G                                   A                       A(dwn) D(up) 
But even if you don't I can't say I blame you
G                        Gm
Cause I'm the crazy one, you're the amazing one 
D                            B                   G     Gm
And you're the only one I've ever given my heart to 
Gm               D
So if we'd never met

Gentlemen Dont intro

Intro: F  C  Dm  A#

F
We were both young when I first saw you.
A#
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
Dm                    A#
You're standing there on a balcony of summer air.

F
See the lights, See the party, the ball gowns
A#                                                 Dm
Making my way, I'm moving through the crowd to say "ello.."
            C
Little did you know

     A#                 C
That I was Romeo, as I was throwing pebbles
             Dm                F
I heard your father said "Stay away from Juliet!"
              A#                                        
Had to leave you crying on the staircase 
 C                Dm       F
Begging me "Please don't go!" So I said..

F
Juliet I'll take you somewhere we can be alone.
C
Just be patient.. nothing left to do but run.
Dm
You'll be the princess, I'll be the prince.. oh!
A#               C       F
It's a love story baby say Yes.

F
So you sneak out to the garden I'm hiding..
A#
We keep quiet cause we're dead if they find me.
Dm
So Close your eyes.
C
Lets escape from this town for a little while.

A#            C
I was Romeo, you were my Juliet.
      Dm                      F
Even my father said loving you is not worth it.
A#                                                                
Had to leave you crying on the staircase.. 
 C           Dm          F
Begging me Please don't go! So I said..

Chorus

F
Juliet I'll save you, they'll never come between us!
C
Just hold on and love is gonna free us!
Dm
Don't be afraid, oh we'll make it through this!
A#              C               F
It's a love story.. baby just say Yes.

                      Dm     A#
I'm sure she's tired of waiting.
F                     C
Swear I'm on my way, just had to work some things out!
Dm                 A#
I hope her faith's not fading..
                         F         C
That was when I met her on the outskirts of town and I said..

F
Juliet I apologize, didn't mean to scare you.
C
Need you more than anything.. I refuse to share you.
Dm
Saw it in her eyes, she didn't know what to think..
 A#                 C
I knelt to the ground and I pulled out a ring and said..

  G 
Marry me Juliet. You'll never have to be alone.
   D
I love you and that's all that I really know!
   Em
I talked to our families, pick out a white dress..
  C              D         G
It's a love story baby just say Yes.

           C                  G
Cause we were both young when I first saw you.

Love Story (via Romeo

C   
Jaja, okay okay
                  F
Ya sé qué pasa aquí
   A#                            C
Encuentras la grandeza frente a ti
             C
Y no sabes bien qué sentir
       F            A#                      C
Es adorable, que jamás los humanitos cambiarán
           C       F
Despierta ya, oye bien, 
           A#                   C
este como ves es Maui, de verdad
             C                F
Sé que como yo no encuentras dos
        A#          C
Lo que miras es un semi Dios

[Coro 1]
Am         F           C
  Yo solo sé decir de nada
        E7               Am
Por el mar, el cielo, el sol
                F            C
No hay de que agradecer, de nada
     E7                    C
Soy sólo un ordinario semi yo

[Estrofa 2]
C                                F  
Hey, ¿qué fortachón el cielo elevó?
                        A#
Cuando eras de esta altura, éste
C                  C
  Si la noche enfrió, 
                  F
¿quién fue quien fuego te llevó?
       A#          
¿Qué, alguien me nombró? 
C              C       F
  Oh, yo sólo lazo el sol
          A#                    C
De nada, para estirar tu diversión
          C       F
Brisa yo hago soplar, de nada, 
   A#           C
y así tus velas elevar

[Coro 2]
Am        F            C
  Yo sólo sé decir de nada, 
        E7                  Am
por las islas que traje del mar
              F                  C
No ruegues jamás, nunca más, de nada
         E7                     Am
¡Ha! Genial es mi manera de servir, 
    F
de nada, 
    C
de nada

[Parte Rap]
C
De nada dudes ya
Hey, honestamente te explicaré 
de natural modo cada fenómeno
El mar, el sol, el gas, 
oh, ese es Maui hablando de más
Anguilas que, yo las enterré, 
de la palmera los cocos creé
Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy
Am
  El tapiz que en mi piel se ve, 
F
  es el mapa de lo que gané
C
  Por donde fui provoqué mil sucesos
E7
  Ve al pequeñín mini Maui nomás zapateando,
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ¡Hey!

[Coro 3]
Am          F              C
  Yo sólo puedo decir, de nada (de nada)
           E7              Am
Por el mundo especial que doy
                 F           C
No hay de que agradecer, de nada (de nada)
    E7                     Am
De nada hablaré, que ya me voy
          F            C
Te toca a ti decir de nada (de nada)
       E7             Am
Pues quiero esa barca ya
             F          C
Muy lejos navegaré, de nada (de nada)
       E7               Am
Pues Maui nada sabe de nadar
              F                 C  F C
(De nada) De nada (De nada) de nada
         C
Y gracias

De tot cor

Am      C              F              C
I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own


            F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?
            F                 C                 G
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
             F                C               G         E7   Am
Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me


Am        C              G         F   
Ow-ow, ah-ah the Bowery, ow-ow, ah-ah whiskey neat
Am          C       G         G
Where y’go, I’m so, grateful, I (it ain’t me)

F         C              Am        G
Ow-ow, ah-ah the Bowery, ow-ow, ah-ah whiskey neat

Where y’go, I’m so, grateful, I (it ain’t me)


Am  C  Am       C              F           C
       I had a dream, we were back to seventeen
       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us


             F                    C                G

             F                 C                 G
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
             F                C               G         E7   Am

Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning

         F      C     G
It ain’t me, no-o, no-o
         F      C     G

It Ain't Me

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

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
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
