I Do

  C               C
Jen is bringing the drugs.
                  F      G   Am
She wants to get real fucked up.
 Am           F        G
She used to laugh and smile,
 Am              Am
But the years of denial.
      D7                   G  
Have taken their toll on her dial.

Jen Is Bringin The Drugs

C       G                  Am
Somebody's gonna love you.
 C        G                  Am
Somebody oughta lay you out.
 F                  C
Don't give it away.
  G                              Am
Cause I need you the most
               F                     Am 
when I'm half of what I was
          G            C
when I was in your room.

   F                     C
Don't pick up the phone.
  G                      Am
Don't answer the door.
 F                                           Am
Cause those villans want your blood.
                 G      C
And they're gonna get it.

C       G                 Am
Your mother is a vampire.
C        G                              Am
She sucked your old man's life away.

F                      C
Turn everything off.
G                     Am
Just cover your neck.
                   F                   Am
Cause life is full of your regrets.
       G     C
And I should be one.

F                  C
Try telling me off.
     G                     Am
Try slamming the door
     F                                            Am
and telling me I'm not worth your time.
            G        C
Or the breath I'm breathing.

 F                  C
Don't throw it away.
 G              Am
Oh, Calico queen.
F                                        Am
Cause now you're merely a machine,
         G     C
And not a person.

F                  C
Try telling me off.
     G                     Am
Try slamming the door
     F                                            Am
and telling me I'm not worth your time.

I took you back a thousand times.

To pay for my crime,

Putting the contact lenses in.

Scurry like mice,

Reflecting the streets in your blue eyes.

Out on the roof,

Waiting for love,

Turn me around and lock me up.

Dress Me Like A Clown

C 
I was writing his story, And he gave me a look 
    Am 
He was very handsome, distractingly so 
     C 
and I never dreamed that he'd be my boyfriend 
    Am 
He wrote me letters, daily from prison 



         F            G        C 
That said I know I've killed a few 
    F             G          C 
But none of those women were you 
F          G 
I couldn't speak 
       C        Am 
It was over for me 
  F        G           C 
I found my grim reaper prince 

# (Same pattern through out) 

Well he said he loved me 
And he cooked me dinner 
He cut my lungs out 
And made me feel thinner 
And I'll never forget him 
Now that it's over 
The life that we had 
When they strapped him down 
Oh but how all the girls were jealous 
Cause he liked me the best 
Oh and I couldn't breathe 
It was true love indeed 
But now my grim prince is gone 


Well I said I loved him 
When they strapped him in 
But he wasn't cryin' 
He took it like a man 
And the families watched him 
As he breathed his last 
But I got rather angry 
I started to laugh 
And say now he's got what's comin' 
He was due his lot 
Oh and I couldn't see, there were tears on my cheek 
Goodbye my grim reaper prince

Love Song For A Schubas Bartender

Em                C
Monday, I drifted away
          D                 G
With some coffee to keep me awake
        Em                     C
And you saw New York one final time
          D                      G
As this credit card shut up your eyes

Em                       C
Tuesday, I woke with the dawn
    D                       G
And put my old wedding ring on
           Em                 C
She said, "Time is a fickle mistress.
        D                           G
You can drink but you'll never fool it."

C        G
I am invisible to you
D          G
All on my own, what can I do?
C              G                   D
Southbound is Heaven, the City of Sin

Em                       C
Wednesday, I hung from a tree
  D                      G
Hoping that you'd notice me
           Em                         C        
That you'd bath all my wounds in your tears
     D                  G
And shower me with sympathy

Em                     C
Thursday was harder to take
      D                     G
These pills pile high on my plate
      Em                      C
So, I swallowed each one in a haze
     D                      G
In a cascade of light I was saved


C        G
I am invisible to you
D          G
All on my own, what can I do?
C              G                   D
Southbound is Heaven, the City of Sin

Open Your Eyes

F#m        E                F#m
I did a sick, sick thing to my love. 
           F#m	       E	        F#m
My lack of loyalty, it swallowed her up. 
                  A
And she cooked me food.        
 		 D             E            F#m
She squirmed and turned like a skeleton key. 
             F#m       E             F#m
She left her man and attended to me. 

              A
Don't call me that. 
          	D
Don't claim you love me,
           E                    F#m
'Cause you know that ain't true. 
        F#m               E              F#m
My dire affliction I'll attribute to you

		   A
And you're finally free
   	     D           E            F#m
To twist and turn like a skeleton key. 

		    A
You've gotta let me know. 
		    A
You've gotta let me know. 


 	F#m      E                  F#m
I did a horrible thing to that girl. 
           F#m        E                 F#m
I bread my misery and drowned it in her. 
               A
And she got me high, 
               D		E                 F#m 	 
And I hardly noticed there were tears in her eyes. 


               F#m      E             F#m
And I miss you less and less everyday. 
	   F#m                     E             F#m
It's true, the whiskey's helped to wash you away. 
		  A
And it's clear to see, 

		 D
You're nothing special,
	 E 	       F#m
You're a skeleton key. 

                    A 
You've gotta let me know. 
	            A 
You've gotta let me know. 
		    A 
You've gotta let me know. 
		    A 
You've gotta let me know. 

Whoo!

The Ocean Is Bleeding Salt

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#

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

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 there's no place you feel at home
              D                               A
and you think you'd be better off alone
A                                          E
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
when you wish you were someone else
                 D                        A

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

[chorus]
