Argentinean rock band from Mataderos formed in 1988. They are pillars of the so called movement &quot;Rock Barrial&quot;, which mix traditional &quot;leftist&quot; ideology, demagogics, 70s hard rock and mentions to football and the hoods. Originated in Mataderos, a humble quartier of Buenos Aires, they started playing small gigs in the neighbourhood but popularity brought by hits such as: &quot;La Balada del Diablo y la Muerte&quot;, &quot;La Razón que te Demora&quot;, &quot;El Revelde&quot; and put them in the headlines which ended up by playing in stadiums such as River Plate's - sanctuary for big foreign bands such as The Rolling Stones...

Cuantas veces se abra escapado

Soy el que nunca aprendió,desde que nació
            B
cómo debe vivir el humano,llegué tarde,
     A                                  E
al sistema,ya estaba enchufado,así funcionando.

                   E
Siempre que haya reunión,será mi opinión
            B
la que en familia desate algún bardo
           A
no puedo acotar, está siempre mal
             E
la vida que amo.

     A                                        E
Caminito al costado del mundo,por ahí he de andar
                                        B
buscándome un rumbo,ser socio de esta sociedad
A           E
  me puede matar.

               E
Y me gusta el rock, el maldito rock
                      B
siempre me lleva el diablo, no tengo religión
                  A                             E
quizá éste no era mi lugar,pero tuve que nacer igual.
                 E
No me convence ningún tipo de política
         B
ni el demócrata, ni el fascista
            A                            E
porque me tocó ser así,ni siquiera anarquista.

     A                                        E
Caminito al costado del mundo,por ahí he de andar
                                        B
buscándome un rumbo,ser socio de esta sociedad
A           E
  me puede matar.

                 E
Yo veo todo al revés, no veo como usted
             B
yo no veo justicia, sólo miseria y hambre
               A
o será que soy yo que llevo la contra
          E
como estandarte.

                 E
Perdónenme pero soy así soy, yo no sé por qué
                   B
se que hay otros también,es que alguien debía de serlo,
                     A               E
que prefiera la rebelión,a vivir padeciendo


     A                                        E
Caminito al costado del mundo,por ahí he de andar
                                        B
buscándome un rumbo,ser socio de esta sociedad           X2
A           E
  me puede matar.

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


Perfect

C         G
Baa, baa, black sheep,
F            C
Have you any wool?

F        C
Yes sir, yes sir,
G          C
Three bags full.

C           G
One for the master,
F           C
One for the dame,

F               C
And one for the little boy
G                  C
Who lives down the lane.

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      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)

Where y’go, I’m so, grateful, I (it ain’t me)


Am  C  Am       C              F           C
       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


             F                    C                G

             F                 C                 G
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?

Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning

It ain’t me, no-o, no-o

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
