Am  G   F   C
Hey-ey ey  ey  ey
       Am  G   F   C
Hey-ey ey  ey  ey
       Am  G   F   C
Hey-ey ey  ey  ey
       Am  G   F   C
Hey-ey ey  ey  ey

            C                G
Hey wake it up! Hey shake it out!
     F                                    G
Does anything still move you since you're educated now?
              C                  G
And all grown up and traveled so well
             F                                       G
Do you still hear the sound of the thunder while you lie up by yourself?

         Am            G                  F               C
Like you waited on his call and made your plans for great escapes
          Am           G               F                    C
And there used to be a movement in the way your dress would wave
          G
From your hips on down like electric through the ground

       Am  G   F   C
Hey-ey ey  ey  ey
       Am  G   F   C
Hey-ey ey  ey  ey

                   C               G
Now do you blow it out come Friday night?
           F                             G
See if you wanna, you can find me on the hood under the moonlight
    C                    G           
Radio [oh radio], oh radio [oh radio],
         F
do you believe there's still some magic left
    G
Somewhere inside our souls?

       Am             G                F                 C
Like I waited on your call and made my plans to share my name
      Am               G               F                    C
And I love the country movement in the way your dress would wave
          G
From your hips on down like electric through the ground

       Am  G   F   C
Hey-ey ey  ey  ey
[Sound of the cars rushing the rain on the boulevard]
       Am  G   F   C
Hey-ey ey  ey  ey
[In this city by the sea that has always haunted me]
       Am  G   F   C
Hey-ey ey  ey  ey
[And belonged to me somehow. Bless your waters and your doubts]
       Am  G   F   C
Hey-ey ey  ey  ey

Howl

Am           G            F          C
I haven't seen Sandy, Angry Johnny, or Mary
  Am             G                   F               C
I heard they got married, might have had a couple of babies
     Am           G            F            C
They traded their memories for Fairview and Acres,
     Am              G          F                C        
they never played no pinball or get out past the breakers

But not me pretty ba-a-a-by,
   Am             C               G               Am
We still love Tom Petty songs and driving old men crazy
    Am  C            G       Am       
And not while Little Eden is waiting
   Am             C             G              Am  
So you sing me a slow song, and I'll drive you crazy


Tonight,        yeah
  Am  G   F     C        Am  G   F   C

Am    G                     F             C
But all I want is for you to be all right and satisfied
Am           G                  F           C 
Brothers and sisters, know that any time or late at night
       Am          G           F                C
If you call I will answer, I'm open ears though tired eyes
          Am                G          F          C
While the world closed it's arms on us now



      Am         C               G      Am 
Can I get a hung witness, pretty ba-a-a-by?
   Am             C               G               Am
We still love Tom Petty songs and driving old men crazy
    Am  C            G       Am
And not while Little Eden is waiting
   Am            C              G              Am 
So you sing me a slow song, and I'll drive you crazy


  Tonight, alright, alright,   Alright, alright
    F   F      C     G         F   F      C       G

etc, etc

     G           F            C
...tonight and I say it's all right,
          Am             G             F            Am
Tell your papa you'll be home when the good feeling dies



    Am  C         G      Am
But not me pretty ba-a-a-by,
   Am             C               G               Am
We still love Tom Petty songs and driving old men crazy

Even Cowgirls Get The Blues

intro
Dm       Bb   2x

Dm
I'm all washed out by the side of the road.
Bb
Broken bones Matilda left a note and a rose.
        Dm                                           Bb                       F
Saying "Baby honey child, I love you so long but you deserve much better than me"

Dm
So I'm just burning all around.
All the miles on the road.
Bb
And I'm never going back.
And I'm never going home.
Dm
I've been gone too long.
I've been less right than wrong.
Bb                             F       Bb   C
I've lost so much blood in the falling out

F
And I lit a fire that wouldn't go out.
         Bb
Until it consumed the walls and roof of this house.
            F
Until all I remember was burning away.
          Bb                     C        Dm
And all I remember, you burnt it away.

Dm
See for 10 long years I've been hustling around.
Bb
Tryin' to wash the sins and sweat from my brow.
Dm
Just trying to find a better life for me and my own.
Bb                                      F    
Just some rest for these tired working fingers.

Dm
But nobody's ever going to tear you away.
          Bb
You gotta figure it out boys.
                               Dm
It's all for the rain, and the fools in the night, and the heat in the day.
                  Bb                F           Bb   C
When all you ever really wanted was someone to understand.

F
And I lit a fire that wouldn't go out.
         Bb
Until it consumed the walls and roof of this house.
            F
Until all I remember was burning away.
          Bb                     C
And all I remember, you burnt it away.
                          F
Well don't you take it so hard and baby don't you cry.
                Bb
Cross your hard heart and hope to die.
                     F
Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied all the time.
                     Bb                        C
Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied every night.

                   Dm                    F
And your sugar and spice, and everything nice.
                Bb                        F
You got Monroe hips, your poison lips and knives.
                   Dm                    F
And your sugar and spice, and everything nice.
     Bb                       F   (Bb  C    2nd time)
Open wounds and a young boy's pride.
[2x]

F
And I lit a fire that wouldn't go out.
         Bb
Until it consumed the walls and roof of this house.
            F
Until all I remember was burning away.
              Bb                 C
And all I had left, you burnt it away.
                          F
Well don't you take it so hard and baby don't you cry.
                Bb
Cross your hard heart and hope to die.
                     F
Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied all the time.
                     Bb                        C
Don't you tell me no more lies, you lied every night.

Film Noir

G                           Em
You can tell Gayle, if she calls,
           C                          D 
that I'm famous now for all of these rock and roll songs.
G                    Em  C                         D
And even if that's a lie, she should've given me a try.
              Em            D           C             G
When we were kids on the field of the first day of school.
Em          D         C
I would've been her fool.
     Em                    D                 C              G
And I would've sang out your name in those old high school halls.
G                D               G
You tell that to Gayle, if she calls.

G                           Em
And you can tell Jane, if she writes, 
           C                                       D 
that I'm drunk off all these stars and all these crazy Hollywood nights.
G               Em   C                        D
That's total deceit, but she should've married me.
              Em           D           C             G
And tell her I spent every night of my youth on the floor, 
    Em         D             C
bleeding out from all these wounds.
     Em                   D                 C              G
I would've gotten her a ride out of that town she despised.
G                D               G
You tell that to Janey, if she writes.

      Em         C         G                D
But boys will be boys and girls have those eyes
         Em       C               G     D   
that will cut you to ribbons sometimes.
     Em        C            G           D
And all you can do is just wait by the moon
     Em                     C               G   D 
and bleed if it's what she says you oughta do.

Em   C  G  D
Em   C  G  D
Em   D  C  G
G    D  G

G                           Em
You remind Anna, if she asks why,
       C                                   D 
that a thief stole my heart while she was making up her mind.
   G                                    Em
I heard she lives in Brooklyn with the cool,
   C                                   D 
goes crazy over that New York scene on 7th Avenue.
              Em           D           C             G
But I used to wait at the diner, a million nights without her,
     Em         D             C
praying she won't cancel again tonight.
           Em           D           C             G
And the waiter served my coffee with a consolation sigh.
G          D                  G
You remind Anna, if she asks why.

G  Em C  D 
               Tell her it's alright
G  Em C  D 
               You know it's hard to tell you this.
Em  D  C  G  Em  D  C  G
                       Oh it's hard to tell you this.

Em  D  C  G   G          D               G
                Here's looking at you, Kid.

Here's Looking At You Kid

Am                              E
Well, I wonder which song they're gonna play when we go
            Am                                         F
I hope it's something quiet and minor and peaceful and slow
        Am                                 E
when we float out into the ether, into the Everlasting Arms,
          Am                                      F
I hope we don't hear Marley's chains we forged in life
           Am            F               C          G
'cause the chains I been hearing now for most of my life

                  Am            G                  F
Did you hear the rattling chains in the hospital walls?
                  C                                  F
Did you hear the old gospel choir when they came to carry you over?
                  Am           G         F
Did you hear your favorite song one last time?



      Am                              E
And I wonder were you scared when the metal hit the glass?
           Am            
See, I was playing a show down the road
                           F
when your spirit left your body
         Am
And they told me on the front lawn
    E
I'm sorry I couldn't go,
      Am                                                     F
but I still know the song and the words and her name and the reasons
      Am                  F        C          G
And I know 'cause we were kids and we used to hang
      Am                  F        C          G
And I know 'cause we were kids and we used to hang


    Am     F     C     G
Young boys
    Am     F     C     G
Young girls

Have you seen my heart, have you seen how it bleeds?
And the nights are so long, baby, out here in the deep.
The tick, ticking of hours lonely... I hear the alarm.
I used to hear when she would sleep in my arms,
But “Better Sense” says...

”Hey, turn the record over.
Hey, I'll see you on the flip side.
There you go, turn the key and engine over...
Let her go, let somebody else lay at her feet.”

verse:
C
In my head
A
I am already gone
F
Side roads pointed up
C         G
Decisions decided on

But in my nights

There are restless hours
F
3 AM goes down
C         G
Nothing else comes up

chorus:
A
And the only thing we know
F
Is it's getting dark and we better go
C
And the only thing we say
G
Are the despairs of the day

A
And if you're too tired
F
Go to sleep, my brothers, I
C
And if you're too tired
G
Go to sleep, my brothers
I'm alright to drive

same again. cheers

Verse 1 -

C
Mary, this station is playing every sad song
Am
I remember like we were alive
C
I heard and sung them all from inside of these walls
Am
In a prison cell, where we spent those nights
C
And they burned up the diner where I always used to find her
Am
Licking young boys blood from her claws
C
And I learned about the blues from this kitten I knew
Am
Her hair was raven and her heart was like a tomb



Prechorus-

I saw tail lights last night in a dream about my first wife
Am        F                C                 G
Everybody leaves and I'd expect as much from you
      Am          F               C              G
I saw tail lights last night in a dream about my old life

Everybody leaves, so why, why wouldn't you?



Verse 2 -
        C
Mary, I worried and stalled every night of my life
       Am
Better safe than making the party
      C
And I never had a good time, I sat my bedside,
     Am
With papers and poetry about Estella

Am7      G
Sympathy, 
F                C
this is my best disguise.
   Am7                      G
My skin stepped out for my bones to dry up,
         F                   C        Am7   G
for the rest of the world outside...to see.
       F                C
You see I bleed on the side
        Am7                 G
It's a part time thing, a private affair
   F                         C
I try to keep it out of the light.
         Am7                C            F
I must confess, I didn't recognize you tonight
Am7                C     F
Dressed up like my love.

       Am7                       G
And I hate these things but I always attend,
   F                          C
a little sip of something to take off the edge.
      Am7                     G 
And I make my way through the ghosts in the room,
  F               C
trying to crack a smile.

    Am7                 G
And who you supposed to be?
F                     C
You look like heaven tonight
   Am7                 G
And me I'm a tomb, a corpse in a suit,
 F                        C
trying to look a little alive.

         Am7
Are you alright?

   C           F
I worry sometimes,
          Am7                 C     F
are you dressed up to take my life?
         Am7    C
Keep it coming, 
         F     
keep it coming,
         Am7   C
Keep it coming,
            F
Keep it coming.

      C
And I think I saw you for the flash of a moment,
      F
Your broken heart and the body that holds it
  C
I lost your scent in the flash of the party.
    F
The big bright lights, baby, constantly haunt me.
      C
I've never been right, have you ever been lied to?
   F
I think I just saw the same scars upon you.
     C                      F
But is this a disguise? A masquerade for me?
         Am7    F   
Keep it coming, 
          C     G
Keep it coming,
           Am7   F
Keep it coming,
          C     G
Keep it coming,

    Am7                 F
And who you supposed to be?
         C                 G
Hey you look just like my love.
    Am7                 F

Are you dressed just like my love?

Are you dressed just like my love for Halloween?

Am                          C                        F

Am                              C                        F

   I know they're waiting up, I know they're waiting to heal

   Are you holding your breath
    G                            C     G

I Coulda Been A Contender

INTRO VERSE-
 C                                                Am
I was crawling around in my head in the haze of a trance.
           C                          Am                     F
Rico said, "I'ma turn you onto a sound, cool out your head.
                              G
This is the sound from Camden town."


C
And then I heard it like a shot through my skull to my brain,
 Am
I felt my fingertips tingle and it started to rain,
 C
When the walls of my bedroom were tremblin' around me,
 Am
This ramshackle voice over attack of a bluesbeat,
 F                               G
Tellin' me he's only looking for fun.
Am                        G                    F
This was the sound of the very last gang in town.




CHORUS:
               C                                      F
As heard by my wild young heart, like directions on a cold dark night,
        C              F
Sayin', 'Let it out... You're doin' all right.'
                      C
And I heard it in his chain gang soul.
                   F
It wasn't just the same sad song.
        C                                   F
Saying, 'Let it out, you're doing all right.'
                  Em                     F        G           C
And I'm doing all right, are you doin' all right?




VERSE:
 C                                                     Am
And I carried these songs like a comfort wherever I'd go.
 C                                       Am
They was there when my summers was high, there when she left me alone.
F                              G
Saying... 'The soul is hard to find.'

 C
And I never got to tell him so I just wrote it down,
 Am
I wrapped a couple chords around it and I let it come out,
 C
When the walls of my bedroom trembled around me,
 Am
To this ramshackle voice over attack of a bluesbeat,
 F                                G
And a girl, on the excitement gang.
            Am                        G         F
That was the sound of the very last gang in town.




CHORUS:
               C                                      F
As heard by my wild young heart, like directions on a cold dark night,
        C                               F
Sayin', 'Let it out... You're doin' all right.'

And I heard it in his chain gang soul.
                   F
It wasn't just the same sad song.

Saying, 'Let it out, you're doing all right.'
                  Em                       G               
And I'm doing all right, are you doin' all right?

That was the sound...

Do you hear the sound?

I hear the sound...

See I've been here for 28 years.

Pounding sweat beneath these wheels.

No surrender, my Bobby Jean.

Pounding sweat beneath these wheels.

We tattooed lines beneath our skin.

No surrender, my Bobby Jean.

               Em
We've been burned by all our fears.
               Bm
Just from growing up around here.
               C
Our father's factories marked our cars.
               G                                D
While Eden burned against the stars.



              G
And Sally said, Sally said.
             Em
I can't take no more regret.
                C
It cut us deep, into our souls.
                  G                     D
Came and climbed into our bed.
                 G
And Sally said, Sally said.
              Em
Meet me by the River's edge.
                C
We're going to wash these sins away.

Or else we won't come back again.

Verse 2:

You know I had these ballroom dreams.
             Bm
That, as a child, came to me.
            C
I was a boy in Grandma's arms.

                     G                      D
A mother's pride and a wounded heart.
                      Em
And I was full with fiery wonder.
                    Bm
You wore Audrey Hepburn pearls.
                    C                       
You were the only one who understood me then

And I'm amazed at all the stars beneath that old Hollywood sign.
          Em            D              C         G   
       
And we waltz, ballet up a boulevard to a place we never kept

Look Miles Davis, I've been swayed by the cool.

And you diamond soul shoes.

Climb on down from that window.

Climb on out of your room.

You move like a dream I had, woke up sweating in my room.
                 A                           F#m   
Your Mama's got plans, your daddy's aim is true.

You gotta keep a good eye on the winding road ahead
   
    Am                 C              F
And my first sin was a young American girl
    Am                 C              F
And my first sin was a young American girl

Interlude: Am, F, Am, F, C, G, Am

      Am                    F
And I spent time 'neath the trestles
         Am                      F
With the punks and the dimestore saints
         C                      G                 Am
We kept faith and a switchblade tucked beneath my coat
                     F
And I ran with dirty angels
Am               F
Slept out in the rain
        C                    G            Am
We were scared and tired and barely seventeen

    Am                   C                 F
And my first sin was the fear that made me old
    Am                   C                 F
And my first sin was the fear that made me old

Interlude: Am, F, Am, F, C, G, Am

          F
And now I walk down by the shipyards
         G
Near the place where I was born
         C                            F
Saying, "Oh Maria, if you'da known me when"
    Am       F              Am                   F   
But she only smiles by the light on the Navesink Banks
         C           G           Am
Saying, "Listen baby, I know you now"

     Am                 F
Then she steps into the river
    Am                  F
And I just stand by the moon
 C                     G          Am
Thinking 'bout a ghost I hear at night
               Am                   C                   F
And she says, "Your first sin was a lie you told yourself.
     Am                   C             F
"And your first sin was a lie you told yourself.

Queen Of Lower Chelsea

INTRO
G  Em x4


G
I was born in a town where the rivers flow free
C
On a January night when the cold winds freeze
G
I got an Irish name and an injury
D                           Em
A blessing and a curse cast down on me
G                    D          Em
Ain't nobody got the blues like me
C                    D          G
Ain't nobody got the blues like me


G
It was a blood red sky on the morning tide
C
There was a cold wind blowin' when I left that night
G
And the warning bells rang, all right, all right
D                        Em
Shoulda stayed home with you that night
G                       D         Em
Ain't nobody played the fool like I
C                       D         G
Ain't nobody played the fool like I


C
Things got bad and things got worse
Em
Half like a blessing, half like a curse
C
Seems a blessing's so hard to see sometimes
Em
Got a little clearer 'bout dusk last night
G                  D             Em
Ain't nobody got a blessing like mine
C                  D             G
Ain't nobody got a blessing like mine

G                        D         Em
It's a red sky night and I'm doin' all right
C                 D              G
Red sky night and I'm doin' just fine

Red At Night

Verse 1:
Em                       G
We are the last of the jukebox Romeos, 
            D                             C
We are romantics by the light of the full moon
                       Em                 G
Came to sing out a chorus, reinvent the good times
             D              C
Bring'in it all back home again

[Chorus:]
      Em
Honey we came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes
        G
Do the jump back jack stop and slide to the right
D                                                C
Never break their hearts, never make 'em cry, come on
Em
Strike up the band, play a song that everybody knows
 G
If I'm not your kind then don't tell a soul
D                                               C
I'm not the one who hates being alone, so come on

Interlude: Em G D C

Verse 2:
Em 
And in the sun-stabled arena
G
Of what's left or become of my America
D                                             C
I'm asking this dance, so come take my hand, come on
Em 
And in the sun-stabled arena
G
Of what's left or become of my America
D                                             C
I'm asking this dance, so come take my hand, come on

Chorus:
      Em
Honey we came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes
        G
Do the jump back jack stop and slide to the right
D                                                C
Never break their hearts, never make 'em cry, come on
Em
Strike up the band, play a song that everybody knows
 G
If I'm not your kind then don't tell a soul
D                                               C
I'm not the one who hates being alone, so come on 

Bridge: 
(One strum- *)

Em*                      G*    
And if they end it all by the end of tonight
D*                                    C
If the big bomb drops down over this quiet Edison sky
Em                       G
We'll blow one last kiss to all the beautiful nights like this
D (Dsus4 hammer)       C
Under the central Jersey sky

Chorus:
      Em (Staccato)
Honey we came to dance with the girls with the stars in their eyes
        G (Staccato)
Do the jump back jack stop and slide to the right
D(Staccato)                                       C (Staccato)
Never break their hearts, never make 'em cry, come on
Em
Strike up the band, play a song that everybody knows
 G
If I'm not your kind then don't tell a soul
D                                               C
I'm not the one who hates being alone, so come on 

Outro:
Em
'Cause you ain't never had a night on the town
G
Like I could show you such a night on the town
D
And you ain't never had a song you could sing
           C
Well it's a deep, dark night, and I hear you, I've been there
Em
But these are the songs that we sing
          G
Whoa-oh, these are the songs that we sing
                     D        D
You've never seen a two step (two-step)
                                 C
Like when you seen it from your mama's house
                                           Em
When the kids flash like lightning to the very best dancers around
                     G
We learned from the very best dancers around
                      D
We learned from the very best dancers in town
              C
Come take my hand
                        G
'Cause mama we came to dance

We Came To Dance

Em
We were the magnificent dreamers.
Em
   In secret lamplight hideouts.
Em
   We swore the world couldn't break us,
Em
   Even when the world took us down.


   Em                        C
So here I am struggling out in the mighty jungle,
       G                            D
Moving eighteen miles a minute, not slowing down for nothing.
  Em                    C
I look to my left and I look to my right,
        G
And I'm callin' out for my brothers
         D
But it's so dark in this night, am I alone?



Em
   Did they fall down by the wayside?
Em
   Was I moving too blind to see them?
Em
   Were they calling out to me?
Em
   Or did Despair set in?


          Em                        C
Were the things that we wanted when we were still sixteen,
     G                             D
Only passing and fleeting, or just too far out of reach?
         Em                       C
Were you hard up or broken man, I woulda helped you out...
         G                        D
Were you numb and distracted when I was calling out?
D
I was calling out...

 
     G                  D
On a Sunday morning the whole crowd assembled,
Em
I've done some things that I'm not too proud of...
G                      D
I've never left you, a deaf ear for longing.
C                                                   G
Some hearts are gallows, I'm not here for hangin' around.


G
 It's all right, man.
D
 I'm only bleeding, man.
Em
Stay hungry, stay free,
Em
And do the best you can.

        that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

Country Roads

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                    C                G

Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories

School Friends

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
