Stories Of A Stranger 

Rain or Shine

All Sides

34th and 8th

In Between Now And Then 

With a mutual love of star wars, monsters and doom Oar are a four piece from Birmingham UK. Formed in early 2010 they emerged onto the local scene scoring sets with the likes of local heroes Slab and Mercer. Due to a lineup change in early 2011 Oar are working towards a full length release later in the year.  Their music comprises Sabbath-esque riffs with the heaviness of Electric Wizard and drives with the force of bands like Kylesa, Mastodon and Neurosis.   

Sorry, the alignment got messed up.

Intro: B B/A#

Verse:

B		   B/A#
In a way, I need a change
		  G#m
From this burnout scene
	      F#
Another time, another town
	     E
Another everything
	 F#		   B
But it's always back to you

B		    B/A#
Stumble out, in the night
		 G#m
From the pouring rain
			F#
Made the block, sat and thought
	       E
There's more I need
     F#			B
It's always back to you


Pre-Chorus:

	E	 B
But I'm good without ya
	  E	   B
Yeah, I'm good without you
     F#		F#
Yeah, yeah, yeah


Chorus:

B
How many times can I break till I shatter?
B/A#
Over the line can't define what I'm after
G#m	 F#
I always turn the car around
B
Give me a break let me make my own pattern
B/A#
All that it takes is some time but I'm shattered
G#m      F#
I always turn the car around


Verse:

B		       B/A#
I had no idea that the night
		   G#m
Would take so damn long
		    F#
Took it out, on the street
		     E
While the rain still falls
F#		    B
Push me back to you

B
How many times can I break till I shatter?
B/A#
Over the line can't define what I'm after
G#m	 F#
I always turn the car around
B
All that I feel is the realness I'm faking
B/A#
Taking my time but it's time that I'm wasting
G#m      F#
I always turn the car around

B
How many times can I break till I shatter?

Over the line can't define what I'm after

I always turn the car around

Don't wanna turn that car around

Shattered

D(let it ring)     A
I know it's been a long, long year.
     G                         G
God forbid you to listen to me now.
D                   A                     G
I may have laid the pressure on good, but since that day
               D        A         G G
I'll never ask again.

D                                   A
It's funny, it's come right down to this.
                   G                                   G
I have to steal my time cause you won't give it up for free.
D                        A                       G               G
I've been talking to the Moon all night, but the Stars won't say nothing to me.
             D                    A 
And though I feel it's easy for a man to grow up
                               G
Much harder for a man to grow out.
D                           A                G
You may not appear, but I'm standing here My God.
     G  
I'll never ask you.
D     A        G
Where have you been?

You could have told me just.
D     A        G
Where have you been?

Cause if you know me you know.
D A         G  
I won't ask why.

They always told me you'd be 
D     A     G
right on my time.
                     DAG
We're coming around.

Love And Memories

Whenever I put "F", play FFF"F"FFF when you strum it.  Same for with "C"

So you play it like this:

"F" "C" G C


I Feel Home, by OAR

Intro:
"Am" (x4. Let ring) "Am" (x4) ("F" "C" G C) (x4)

"F"                                "C"                G                   C
There are few things pure in this world anymore, and home is one of the few. 

"F"                            "C"                   G                  C
We'd have a drink outside, maybe run and hide if we saw a couple men in blue.

"F"                      "C"                  G                        C
But to me it's so damn easy to see that your people are the people at home. Well

"F"                               "C"                   G                 C
I've been away but now I'm back today, and there aint no place I'd rather go...than home

C                  G                        Am
I feel home, when I see the faces that remember my own.

C                     G                       Am
I feel home, when I'm chillin outside with the people I know.

C             G                Am   
I feel home,  and that's just what I feel.

C                   G              Am           
Home to me is reality, and all I need is something real.

"Am" (x4)

"F"                    "C"                G                  C
Feelin alright, headin out tonight, maybe off to a dark driveway.

"F"                                  "C"                          G                   C  
I say now some feel bored, and some are lookin for more. Well we all just decide to stay. 

"F"                       "C"                  G                        C
We got nothin to do, and I look at you I see something that I know and love. And with the

"F"                     "C"                       G                        C
crack of a smile we all stay a while we know from home there aint nothing above.

          "F"          "C"                           G                    C
Well in the end we can all call a friend well that's something I know as true.

         "F"                  "C"                         G                   C
And then a thousand years and a thousand tears I'll come back to my original crew

        "F"               "C"                   G                        C 
cause to me throughout eternity there's somewhere where you're welcome to go

          "F"                         "C"                  G                      C
I said it's something free that means a lot to me when I'm with my friends I feel home.

C                   G                   Am
I feel home, when I see the faces that remember my own

C                      G                        Am
I feel home,  when I'm chillin outside with the people I know.

C           G                 Am             
I feel home, and that's just what I feel.

C                  G       Am 
Home to me is reality, and all I need is something real

C                  G       Am 
Home to me is reality, and all I need is something real
C  G    Am 
I feel home.

Then just play "F" "C" G C in the jam at the end

I just heard the world is...

G
breaking down into bits again
        Am
Tell me what am I to do?
Dm                            G
    And you just want me to stay here
Dm                      G
    So I'm just gonna stay here

Verse 1:
Am
Home Our last resort
Dm
  I built a castle with an iron door
G
  Lock the window Pull the shades
G
The hazed-out sun won't help anyway
Am                            Dm
If the world is crumbling down
                      G
I don't want to be alone, no
G
Locked up in this place




Chorus:
             Am                             C
I heard the world up late night, holding my breath tight
C
Trying to keep my head on right
F
There's a chill in the air, nobody could care
           C                G
How you're caught up in the fight of your life


Over solo: Am Dm G G


Same as first verse: Am Dm G G


Fear is holding me here
The television got me seeing unclear
Bravery, my neighbor, moved away
'Cause I don't need to be courageous today
If the world was crumbling down
I don't wanna be alone, no
Locked up in this place


Play chorus again over:

I heard the world up late night, holding my breath tight
Trying to keep my head on right
There's a chill in the air, nobody could care
How you're caught up in the fight of your life
I heard the world up late night, holding my breath tight
Trying to keep my head on right
There's a chill in the air, nobody could care
How you're caught up in the fight of your life


Bridge:
Am                 C         G
   Nothing's gonna save me
Am                    C        G
  I'm hanging from the nearest tree
Am                C       G
  Nothing's gonna save me
Am                  C       G
I'm hanging from the nearest tree

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#
I'm going where the people know my name

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.

          B
Interpret history 
       Bbm        F#
In every line and scar 
               Ab                  
That's painted there in front of me

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

           C#
It doesn't matter
         Ab
What I'm thinking
       F#
What I tell myself to do
         C#      F#
I end up calling

       C#
I stay in to
                   Ab
Defrost the fridge
        F#
Now the kid has gone to bed
             C#
A feeling of dread
              B         
At least when she's around
    Bbm
The trouble's there
     F#                        Ab
It's worse to wake up with her falling 'round the room

F# Ab F# Ab F# Ab

       C#
Listen Johnny
              F#
You're like a mother
       C#                     F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

       C#
Listen Johnny
              Ab
You're like a mother
       F#
To the girl you've fallen for
                 C#
And you're still falling

            B
And if they come tonight
       Bbm
You'll roll up tight
     F#             Ab
And take whatever's coming to you next (oh, oh oh oh)

 F# Ab to end.

[intro x2]
A  E  D A

A                                        E
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
and you wanna go out and kill yourself

[chorus]

E D                 A
ooh you're overreacting

(you can change your mind)
E D                A
ooh you're overreacting

(take your time)


A                       E
when you get yourself depressed
                      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]

E D                 A
ooh you're overreacting

(you can change your mind)
E D                A

(take your time)
