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...

Verse (Just Play Intro)

I wonder through fiction to look for the truth
Buried beneath all the lies
and I stood at a distance
To feel who you are
Hiding myself in your eyes (Right On Eyes You Play A Palm Muted A )

Chorus 1:
D        C        Am        C 
and hold on before it's too late
F       G           A 
Until we leave this behind
D       C        Am        C 
Don't fall just be who you are
F                G            A 
It's all that we need in our lives


Verse 2(Same As Verse 1)

And the risk that might break you
Is the one that would save
A life you dont live is still lost
So stand on the edge with me
Hold back your fear and see
Nothing is real til it's gone (Play A Palm Muted A  Right On Gone)

Accoustic #3

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




[D6-Bm9][Bm7] x4

[Bm7-Bm9][Dsus4-D] x4


Chorus :

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
I just want you to know who I am

Sympathy

Basically,

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

                     G
Just say you understand
                     Fm
I never had this planned

CHORUS

         Am
My head lies to my heart
                 C
And my heart it still beleives
         G                                                    Fm
It seems the one who loves us are the ones that we deceive
                         Am
But you're changing everything
                G                                Fm
You're changing everything in me

CHORUS

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).

    You’re shining in the distance I hope I can make it through
           D	                              G                                    
Cause the only place that I want to be is right back home with you 


Verse 3:
                 C	             Am		
I guess there's so much more I have to learn
               F	 	                       G		
But if you're here with me, I know which way to turn
        Am         F		                   C
You always give me somewhere, somewhere I can run
Am	            G	       F   C
   You make it real for me 

Chorus:
    G	    Am	   F	             C
And IIIIIIIII'm running to you baby
G    Am	              F	           C

       G     Am	         F	               C

You Make It Real

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

            F                 C                 G

             F                C               G         E7   Am
Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G

       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

Hunger Strike

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
