Am         D   G
Once in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow

G
Some day I'll wish upon a star

And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
      G
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
 C
Away above the chimney tops

That's where you'll find me 


G         B
Somewhere over the rainbow

If happy little bluebirds fly

Beyond the rainbow
Am      D        G
Why, oh why can't I?

Somewhere Over The Rainbow - Judy Garland

E7      A            D9      E7      A           D6
With my high starched collar and my high topped shoes 

 E7     A          D9            A
And my hair piled high upon her head 

Edim  Bm7             E     A           C#m
 I   went to lose a jolly hour on the trolley 

      Cdim     B7     Bm7-5    E7
And I lost my heart instead 


E7        A          D9     E7      A           D6
With his light brown derby and his bright green tie 

E7     A          D9            A
He was quite the handsomest of men 

Edim  Bm7       E        A        C#m
  I started to yen so I counted to ten 

       Cdim       B7   Bm7-5    E7
Then I counted to ten again 
 

   A            DM7              A       DM7
"Clang, clang, clang" went the trolley 

  A          F#m            D9     E7
"Ding, ding, ding" went the bell 

   A         DM7             A           DM7
"Zing, zing, zing" went my heart-strings 

          A       D9      E7 A
From the moment I saw him I fell 


  A          DM7            A       DM7
"Chug, chug, chug" went the motor 

  A          F#m            D9     E7
"Bump, bump, bump" went the brake 

   A           DM7             A           DM7
"Thump, thump, thump" went my heart-strings 

 E7      A     F#m       D9      E7    A
When he smiled, I could feel the car shake 


   Bm7-5      E7      Fdim    A
He tipped his hat and took a seat 

   Edim     E       D9     E7/6     Fdim   A
He said he hoped he hadn't stepped upon my feet 

   A+5      F#      Gdim     Bm
He asked my name, I held my breath 

  C#m7-5     D      Cdim    Bm7-5     Edim      E7
I couldn't speak because he scared me half to death 


   A         DM7             A     DM7
"Buzz, buzz, buzz" went the buzzer 

  A          F#m            D9     E7
"Plop, plop, plop" went the wheels 

   A         AM7   A7       D6     D7
"Stop, stop, stop" went my heart-strings 

Fdim   A         D9         A7        Fdim        E7/9
As he started to go then I started to know how it feels

        Cdim       A6
When the universe reels.


   Bm7-5      E7       Fdim      A
The day was bright, the air was sweet

    Edim     E     D9     E7/6      Fdim       A
The smell of honeysuckle charmed you off your feet.

     A+5           F#       Gdim      Bm
You thought you'd sing but couldn't squeek --

  C#m7-5     D      Cdim     Bm7-5   Edim   E7
In fact you loved him so you couldn't even speak.



   A         DM7             A     DM7
"Buzz, buzz, buzz" went the buzzer 

  A          F#m            D9     E7
"Plop, plop, plop" went the wheels 

   A         AM7   A7       D6     D7
"Stop, stop, stop" went my heart-strings 

Fdim   A          D9           A7          Fdim           A6
As he started to leave I took hold of his sleeve with my hand 

      Fdim(III)          E7     D9       E7/9 E7 E7/9
And as    if    it were planned he stayed on with me 

 E         Cdim         Fdim(III)         C#7          D
And it was grand just to  stand  with his hand holding mine 

Cdim     D9 Bm7-5      A
 To the end   of  the line.

Trolley Song

A                            D9              Bm7         A
I woke up this morning and the sun was shining but I didn't see it;
A                                  D9              Bm7                A     A7
I think I drank my orange juice but I don't know, I wouldn't guarantee it.   
D                               Dm                    Dm7               A
Wore my yellow dress or was it blue, oh what's the use, I don't remember.
Gdim                           Bm7                            E7
Is it Monday, is it Tuesday is it June or is it still, December?
A                                Bm7
Sat beside my window, watch the couples strolling by,
C#m7                      F#7
Felt so sorry for myself, I couldn't even cry;
D          Dm7                  A                  B7
Finally I pulled the shade -- I couldn't stand the gaff   
D                 Cdim      E7
So I sat down and wrote my ep - i - taph.   


Bm7    A   D9    A   F#m7  B7 Bm7      E7    E7     A
I'm    no -bod - y's ba -    by  --  I     won - der w   hy?  
A7       Bm7     Cdim     F#7            Bm      Bm7
Each   night       and      day I pray the Lord up above,     


B7                        Bm7       E7
Please send me down some - bod - y to love.
    A    D9    A   F#m7     B7    Bm7  E   E7     C#7
But no - bod - y   wants    me -- I'm   blue some - how.    
    F#7      C#7    D9       Dm6      A      C#m7      F#7
Won't some - one h    ear my plea and take a chance with me?    
    Bm     Bm7/E     Bm7    E7    A      Edim Dm7 E7
I'm no -   bod - y's ba -     by n   ow.         





A    D9    Bm7    A    

A    D9    Bm7    A    A7    

D    Dm    Dm7    A    

A    D9    A   F#m7      B7    Bm7  E    E7     C#7
No - bod - y   wants     me -- I'm  blue some - how.    
      F#7   C#7   D9         Dm6      A      C#m7      F#7
Won't some - one h    ear my plea and take a chance with me?    
                D             B7
There's no de - ny - in', I'm cry - in',
    A        G#7          F#7
I'm lone - some on my own - some --
 D      Fdim     Bm7     E       E7       E7       A6
I don't mean may -     be, I     'm no - bod - y's    ba - by.

Hey, honestamente te explicaré

El mar, el sol, el gas,

Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy

G      Em
I found a love for me
               C                         D
Darling just dive right in, and follow my lead
                G                 Em
Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet
          C                                  D
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me

                                 G
Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
              Em                     C               G  D
Not knowing what it was, I will not give you up this ti-ime
                   G                         Em
But darling just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
             C                  D
And in your eyes you’re holding mine

       Em   C            G          D              Em
Baby, I’m dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
C                G     D                Em
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
          C                G                 D              Em
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
         C                G        D             
But you heard it, darling you look perfect tonight

               G                    Em
Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
                C                                        D
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I’ll share her home
           G             Em
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
         C                              D
To carry love, to carry children of our own

                              G                     Em 
We are still kids, but we’re so in love, fighting against all odds
                  C               G  D
I know that we’ll be alright this ti-ime
               G                            Em

Who lives down the lane.

        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               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

       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

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
