Under the Surface

If a Song Could Get Me You 

D                    F#m
It's such a funny sensation to be 
    F                    Am   G
so happy that you wanna die
D                      F#m  
Promises always were crazy to me
    F               Am      G
But never was I so surprised
D                        F#m
Minutes are longer when we are apart
    F                     Am        G
Your presence's more than I can handle
D                               F#m               F
It's come to the point where I wonder if I could ever be luckier
Am       G     C              C/B   
When suddenly I'm back at the core
            Am                F      
Thinking of her who had you before
             C
Were you as good
             C/B
As good as we are
          F
Do you remember?


              C                  C/B
Did you love her the way you love me?
              Am               F
Is there a chance that there might be
           C            C/B              F
traces of her that you carry under the surface?


Verse 2   Same chords
D                            F#m     
Lend me your ears, I would like to confess 
       F                         Am    G
I'm doubting that you could be real
D                          F#m  
By your side wearing a beautiful dress
       F                  Am   G
I celebrate how good it feels
D                       F#m     
Say that you love me, say that it's true
   F                       Am   G
I know that I want to believe you
D                           F#m
But somehow silence speaks louder than words
      F                          Am   G
I'm worried she's still on your mind

          C               C/B
Suddenly I'm back at the core
            Am                F
Thinking of her who had you before
             C
Were you as good
             C/B 
As good as we are
          F
Do you remember?


              C                 C/B
Did you love her the way you love me?
            Am                     F
Is there a chance that there might be
           C             C/B              F
traces of her that you carry under the surface?

    C
Mmm I know that I'm selfish
    C/B       
I know that it's bad
    Am                       F
I know, but it's driving me mad
                 G
It's driving me mad 

          C                C/B
Suddenly I'm back at the core
            Am                F
Thinking of her who had you before
             C
Were you as good
             C/B 
As good as we are
              F
Do you remember?

              C                   C/B
Did you love her the way you love me?
             Am                    F
Is there a chance that there might be

Under The Surface

Verse 1:
G
I could try you with a waltz
Em
I could try you rock and roll
D
I could try you with the blues
Am
  If a song would do
G
I could sing it high or low
Em
When I let you go you know
  D              C
I thought it was for the best
D            C
Now it is so obvious


Chorus:
   G                   D
So here it is, here it goes
Em                   G
I could try rock and roll
        C
I would change your
        G
life forever too
Am              D
If a song could get me you
G                       D
I could make it high or low
Em               G
Sing it on the radio
   C             G
If that is what I need to do
Eb              D7
If a song could get me you


Verse 2:
G
I could run for miles and miles
Em
I'd take off and I'd start flying
D
I could cross land and sea
Am
  If you just believe me
G
I should not have hurt you so
Em
This old house is not a home
    D             C
Without you here, there's no use
     D           C
I've got no time left to lose


Chorus


Bridge:
C               G
If a song could get me through
    Am                 G       Em
I'd sing my way, right back to you
C               G
Tell me how, to make it right
Am                 G
Tell me now, I'll start tonight
  C            G
I know I could make it last
  D                 C
I swear to you that if I knew
       G           Em
What I was getting myself into
  Am
I wouldn't answer to my fears
    C                D7
I'd never leave you standing there


Verse 3:
     C         G
Just look at me
C
  If you'd only see me
G
I would prove my love for you
Em
I could swallow half the moon
     D              C
Just tell me where, tell me when
D               C
I will have you back again

VERSE 1:
D                               G
So you say I need to consider this
D                                      G
Yours were the face that I couldn?t resist
D                                       G
Yours was the fuel to the flames in my heart
D                                          G
Mine were the words that would tear us apart
D                                    G 
Well I say I found the letters you wrote
D                                          G
Mine was the smile and the life that you broke
D                                       G
Mine was the story that you told your friends
D                                     G
Yours were the demons you couldn?t defend

A                                               G         D
Understand me, as of lately I?ve learned a thing or two
A                                                G
There is just no way that I?ll be coming home to you


CHORUS:
D                             Dmaj7 
?Cause only a fool would do this again
D6                 Dmaj7
Only a fool would let you back in
G                                  D
There is no you left to embrace
G                                      A
There is no word would make it feel safe
D                  Dmaj7
Love was a gift, stubborn and wild
D6                   Dmaj7
I was armed with the faith of a child
     G                             D
And you were my joy, you were my friend
G                           A
There is no going back there again
      C                                 G
It?s more than you can ask of me my love
           D              
I?m coming out of nowhere
Em                    F#m              G
It feels good here better than you know
         D        A             G                 A
Isn?t it only fair that you try and let it go?

VERSE 2:

Yours was the ring that I started to wear
D                                       G
Yours were the vows that went up in the air
D                                       G
Yours was the choice to stay away from her
D                                         G
Mine was the dream that got lost in the stir
D                                        G 
These were the times I would call you my own

These were the times I were waiting at home

I?ll tell you something, I?ve been changing after what you put me through

My heart stops it isn’t… going could you revive me
I think I’m lost without knowing so come and find me

But in your own life over reacted and in your own time

Why Cry

[Verse 1]
 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D
You say you like sleeping with the air off
Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no
    G              D          Bm    A
And you don't ask for me to change


[Chorus]
N.C.                     D
Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
We don't even know why, no no
Bm                          A
We don't even know why, no no no


[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time


[Verse 2]
G                        D
Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change



[Chorus]
N.C.                     D
Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why

We don't even know why, no no no


[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime (we don't even know)

We like it in the end of time (we don't even know)

No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime

(We don't even know, know, know, know, know)




[Bridge]
G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine
G                         D
Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)
Bm                            A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright

(Think that we'd be alright)

G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine


[Chorus]

(Oh)Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why

('Cause we work so well and we don't even know why, why)

Crash Years

Intro  D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
        Bm7                 F#              G                    A
And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
        Bm7 A   G                              Gm
Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

Verse 2
          D                           Bm7
Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase
     G               A
Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say

May have lost this battle, live to fight another day

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7

Situations

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
