Greatest Hits Volume One - The Singles

A Boy Named Goo

Goo Goo Dolls is an alternative rock band formed in 1985 in Buffalo, New York by guitarist/vocalist John Rzeznik and bassist/vocalist Robby Takac. They are most famous for the hit &quot;Iris&quot;, featured on the soundtrack to the 1998 film City of Angels. Currently, the band consists of John Rzeznik (guitar, vocals), Robby Takac (vocals, bass) and Mike Malinin (drums).  Early in their career, the Goo Goo Dolls were frequently dismissed by critics as mere imitators of The Replacements; however, the band refined its sound to be more mainstream...

Very difficult to play in the same key with a ukulele as the whole song is based on open chords. Anyway, let's give it a try...

note : D is in fact a Dadd11 at the guitar, but the uke doesn't have the range to play it correctly...


Intro : [Bm7-Bm9][Dsus4-D] x2


1st verse :
        Bm7  -    Asus4 -  Dsus4
And I'd give up forever to touch you
         Bm7    -      Asus4  -    Dsus4
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
           Bm7    -   Asus4  -    Dsus4
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
      Bm7    -      Asus4  -      Dsus4
And I don't want to go home right now
        Bm7 - Asus4  -      Dsus4
And all I can taste is this moment
    Bm7   -   Asus4   -       Dsus4
And all I can breathe is your life
       Bm7  -    Asus4  -   Dsus4
'Cause sooner or later it's over
       Bm7     -     Asus4  -   Dsus4
I just don't want to miss you tonight



Chorus :
      Bm7    -       Asus4 -  Dsus4
And I don't want the world to see me
         Bm7    -         Asus4  -     Dsus4
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
     Bm7    -     Asus4  -   Dsus4
When everything's made to be broken
       Bm7    -    Asus4  -   Dsus4
I just want you to know who I am


[Bm7-Bm9][Dsus4-D] x2



2nd verse:
        Bm7   -         Asus4  -         Dsus4
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
       Bm7   -   Asus4  -      Dsus4
Or the moment of truth in your lies
     Bm7   -    Asus4  -       Dsus4
When everything feels like the movies
        Bm7     -     Asus4  -     Dsus4
And you bleed just to know you're alive




Chorus :
      Bm7    -       Asus4 -  Dsus4
And I don't want the world to see me
         Bm7    -         Asus4  -     Dsus4
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
     Bm7    -     Asus4  -   Dsus4
When everything's made to be broken
       Bm7    -    Asus4  -   Dsus4
I just want you to know who I am

[Bm7-Bm9][Dsus4-D] x4


Chorus :
      Bm7    -       Asus4 -  Dsus4
And I don't want the world to see me
         Bm7    -         Asus4  -     Dsus4
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
     Bm7    -     Asus4  -   Dsus4
When everything's made to be broken
       Bm7    -    Asus4  -   Dsus4
I just want you to know who I am

Chorus :
      Bm7    -       Asus4 -  Dsus4
And I don't want the world to see me
         Bm7    -         Asus4  -     Dsus4
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
     Bm7    -     Asus4  -   Dsus4
When everything's made to be broken
       Bm7    -    Asus4  -   Dsus4
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

Verse: Em D Am7 C
Chorus: G D Am7 C
-last line of chorus Em D C

Em              D             Am7
And through the fence I see a ghost 
     C                  Em
Of a place that used to breath
            D               Am7
You know it choked away the sun
       C
But we still had food to eat
        Em       
And now everyone is gone
     D 
To a place that won't be home
          A
Will they keep their family strong
          C
Will they make it on their own


Chorus:

G            D                    Am7
And we'll be standing when you're gone
    C              G
And we'll be heard again
              D
We missed our chance but not 
    Am7              C                Em
For long I know some-how we will hold on
         D                C
We'll be here when you're gone



And then one day we realized
That they couldn't hear our voice
And it's so hard to understand
When it's caught up in the noise
And the ones who fight and die
Are the truth inside the lie
Now it's all built on our backs
And we struggle to survive


Well Be Here When You're Gone

INTRO : Am C Am C

       Am
Your love's gathered storm I chased across the sky
     C
A moment in your arms became the reason why
                    Am
And you're still the only light that fills the emptiness
          C
The only one I need until my dying breath

     Am
And i would give you everything
             Fm
just to feel your open arms
      Am                              Fm
and i'm not sure i believe  anything I feel

chorus :
    C                      Am
and now, now that you're near
                              Fm
there's nothing more without you
             C
without you here

            Am
And i'm trying to beleive in things that I don't know
            C
The turning of the world, the colour of your soul
            Am
That love could kill the pain Truth is never vain
    C                                               Am
It turns strangers into lovers and ennemies to brothers

Just say you understand
                     Fm
I never had this planned

But you're changing everything

You're changing everything in me

Without You Here

&quot;Black Balloon&quot; is the third single to be released from the Dizzy Up the Girl album by the Goo Goo Dolls.  This song, according to the band's frontman Johnny Rzeznik, is about a woman with a heroin addiction and how her lover is desperately trying to save her. He has also said that is about &quot;seeing someone you love that is so great just screw up so bad.&quot; Speculation as to the song's subject has included bassist Robby Takac's ex-wife (who overdosed on heroin).  

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

I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
D                         A
the way you are leaves me counting the days

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.

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

because you think you can't do your best
A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song
           D                        A
to remind yourself that you forgot
