F#         C#/F     Bsus2            D#m7             F#
   There are no words, to paint a picture of you girl
F#     C#/F      Bsus2                         D#m7       F#
Your eyes, those curves, it?s like you?re from some other world
F#    C#/F      Bsus2            D#m7        F#
You walk my way, oh god it?s so frustrating.

Pre-Chorus:
F#            C#/F            Bsus2
So why do I disappear when you come near,
      D#m7            F#
It makes me feel so small,
F#   C#/F                 Bsus2
Why do I blow my lines, most every time,
            D#m7              F#
It?s like I got no chance at all,

Chorus:
F#                    C#/F
  If I could be your superman,
     Bsus2          D#m7            F#
I?d fly you to the stars and back again.
F#                   C#/F
  Cos everytime you touched my hand,
      Bsus2         D#m7                  F#
You feel my powers running through your veins
F#                 C#/F
   But I can only write this song,
       Bsus2           D#m7
And tell you that I?m not that strong.
F#             D#m7           F#               D#m7
Cos I?m no superman, I hope you like me as I am.

Verse 2 (same):
It aint no lie, I have to tell you how I feel,
But each time, I try it gets a little more unreal,
You say my name, oh god I can?t stop shaking,

Pre-Chorus:
So why do I disappear when you come near,
It makes me feel so small,
If I could read your mind,
Girl would I find, any trace of me at all.

Chorus:
F#                    C#/F
  If I could be your superman,
     Bsus2          D#m7            F#
I?d fly you to the stars and back again.
F#                   C#/F
  Cos everytime you touched my hand,
      Bsus2         D#m7                  F#

Verse 1:
C                                              Am
When all that you?ve tried, leaves nothing but holes inside, 
C                                        Am
It seems like you?re wired, to stay here held in time,
                     F          G
Cos nothing seems to change, oh no.
                   F          G
No nothing?s gonna change, at all.
                     F                       G
I can see it in your face, the hope has gone away. 

Chorus:
           C           G               Am          F        G
If you hold tight, shadows will be lost in the light. 
       C          G             Am         F           G
Oh cos sometimes, fate and your dreams can collide.

So don?t walk away from me,
           F         G 
Don?t walk away from me,
           F   G     C         Am
Don?t walk away from me. 

Verse 2:
C                                   Am
Your feet are stuck, no they cannot move, 
                             F
Don?t tell me that they?re glued, 
              G    C
Sure they?re far from. 
C                                  Am
At home, at ease but give sometime to breathe 
F          G
Cos nothing seems to change, oh no.
                   F          G
No nothing?s gonna change, at all.
                     F                       G
I can see it in your face, the hope has gone away. 

Chorus:
           C           G               Am          F        G

       C          G             Am         F           G
Oh cos sometimes, fate and your dreams will collide. 
              F         G
So don?t walk away from me,
           F         G 
Don?t walk away from me,
           F   G     C         Am  
Don?t walk away from me. 

Bridge:
                   F  G
Cos everthing will be ok, 
                    F       G
I know that it?s so easy to say, 
                         F
But the pain inside will fade, 
                           G
Please tell me that you?ll stay. 

Chorus:
      C           G               Am          F        G
If we hold tight, shadows will be lost in the light. 
       C          G             Am         F           
Oh cos sometimes, fate and your dreams can collide. 

Outro:
C 					      Am
When all that you've tried leaves nothing but holes inside

Holes Inside

Verse 1:
  B
I don?t think there?s a word I've ever heard
      E
That captures the innocence of you
    BE
And I wouldn?t want one too
B   E
And no, I wouldn?t want one too
              C#m
It?d be like smothering a star
Or covering a work of art
F#
Driving so fast that the view falls apart
      C#m G#m
Like I do
F#
Without you.



Chorus:
E  B
But im on my way home 
 E    B
And I'm worn to the bone
            E   G#m
And when my heart hits an all time low.
A
There?s something shining through
                    BE
I find the light in you
    BE
I find the light in you.


Verse 2:
B
I don?t think there?s a sun that?s ever shone
E    
Brighter than the radius of you
BE
And I wouldn?t want one too
        BE
No, I wouldn?t want one too
      C#m
It would be a far for ever tamed
A burn without the pain 
  F#
A heat that never warms the things 
         C#mG#m
Like you do.
 F#
Like you do.


Chorus


Bridge:
D
Take my hand and we can beat 
     C#m
This glimmer of a dream 
     B
Out from the corner
Oooooo
D
Please your fingers it?s a mind 
    C#m
And we can find a world 
E
If we believe it we can breathe it 
BEBE
Breathe it into life  yeah


Final chorus:
E B
And I'm on my way home
E B
I'm worn to the bone
E       G#m
And my heart hits and all time low
         A
There?s something shining through
E B
But im on my way home 
E   B
And im worn to the bone
    E    G#m
And when my hearts hits an all time low
 A
There?s something shining through
   B      E
I find the light in you.      (x8)

Find The Light In You

# Intro: E  F#m  A
E                               F#m
She leaves just silence in her path
                         A
Short goodbyes and photographs
A                                                E
I took them with me on a plane from Appledorn to LA
                             F#m
This broken heart it doesnt hurt
                                   A
I still wear these memories on my shirt
A                                   C#m
From five days of summer in the rain.

C#m                           F#m
Now Im falling towards the ground
                           A
Its coming at me way too fast
A
You dont learn to fly
         B
If youre not prepared to crash

A                       C#m
Shes the sunlight in my eyes
F#m                      E
Shes a bittersweet goodbye
F#m
And I just cant tell you why
F#m                       A
I let her break my heart again
A
Those five days of summer in the rain

# Same chords for Verse 2 and chorus.
B               A
In the rain
A                                          B        A
Cause when it rains it sure does pour in Appledorn
A
She took the waves, She showed me life, 
A                           B    A
She showed me love, I had it all
                                              B   A
And all the time shes not around I want her more
         B
Shes so beautiful

Y no sabes bien qué sentir
       F            A#                      C

        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

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

Where y’go, I’m so, grateful, I (it ain’t me)

F      C           Am     G
Ow-ow, the Bowery, ow-ow, the whiskey neat

Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up

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
