(G)It's just a (C)bad movie, where there's (G)no (D)crying 
handing the (G)key to (C)me in this (G)Red (D)Lion, 
where the (C)clock that you (G)locked in the (C)suite says there's (Em)no(D)prying. 
When the (C)breath that you (G)breathed in the (C)street screams there's (Em)no (D)science
When you (C)look how you (G)looked then to (C)me, then I (Em)cease (D)lying and fall 
into silence. 

C G C Em D 

It's just a life story, so there's no climax. 
No more new territory, so pull away the imax. 
In the slot that you sliced through the scene there was no shyness. 
In the plot that you passed through your teeth there was no pity. 
No fade in: film begins on a kid in the big city. 
And no cut to a costly parade (that's for him only!). 
No dissolve to a sliver of grey (that's his new lady!) 
where she glows just like grain on the flickering pane of some great movie. 

It's just a house burning, but it's not haunted. 
It was your heart hurting, but not for long, kid. 
In the socket you spin from with ease there is no sticking. 
From the speakers your fake masterpiece is serenely dribbling. 
When the air around your chair fills with heat, that's the flames licking 
beneath the clock on the clean mantelpiece. It's got a calm clicking, 
like a pro at his editing suite takes two weeks stitching up some bad movie.

Our Life Is Not A Movie Or Maybe

Intro
Em - C - G - D  x3 


Em      C        G              D    Em         G     D
I'm surrounded, each doorway covered by at least twenty men.

Em                    C           G            D
And they're going to take me and throw me in prison.

Em C            G     D
I ain't coming back again.

   A
Hot breath, rough skin
            D
warm laughs, and smiling,
            F#m 
the lovliest words
             E
whispered and meant
       D
you like all these things.


                    E
But though you like all these things
           A
you love a stone.
           D
You love a stone,
           E             Bm
because it's smooth and it's cold.
               F#m
And you'd love most
       E
to be told
                 D
that it's all your own.

              A
You love white veins,
              E
you love hard grey,
             Bm
the heaviest weight,
			  D
the clumsiest shape,
			  F#m
the earthiest smell,
			  E
the hollowest tone
		  D	
you love a stone.

Bridge: A E Bm D

                  A
And I'm found too fast,
called too fond of flames,
                        D
and then I'm phoning my friends,
and then I'm shouldering the blame,
                     F#m
while you're picking pebbles
           E
out of the drain,
      D
miles ago.
                   A
You're out singing songs,
and I'm down shouting names
                   D
at the flickerless screen,
going fucking insane.
			   F#m
Am I losing my cool,
               E
overstating my case?
                D
Well, baby what can I say?

           E
You know I never claimed
             A
that I was a stone.
               D
And you love a stone.
               F#m
You love white veins,
              E
you love hard grey,
             Bm
the heaviest weight,
              D
the clumsiest shape,
              F#m
the earthiest smell,
              E
the hollowest tone
         D
you love a stone.

Bridge: A E Bm D (x2) A

           D
You love a stone,
             E    
because it's dark 
         Bm
and it's old
                F#m
and if it could start
      E
being alive
                 D
you'd stop living alone.

(quieter)
                  A
And I think I believe
                     E
that if stones could dream
                      Bm
they'd dream of being laid
                      D
side-by-side piece-by-piece
                  F#m
and turned into a castle
                  E
for some towering queen
                  D
they're unable to know.

                      A
And when that queen's daughter 
        E
came of age,
                 Bm
I think she'd be lovely
                 D
and stubborn and brave,
                  F#m
and suitors would journey
             E
from kingdoms away
                    D
just to make themselves known.
          
                   A
And I think that I know
               E
the bitter dismay
                Bm
of a lover who brought
                       D
fresh brouquets every day
                    F#m
when she turned him away
                 E
to remember some knave
					D                       A
who once gave just one rose, one day, years ago.

Intro: D


D                G              Em    G    
No one wants to hear about your 97th tear, 
             Em             G
so dry your eyes or let it go 
           A                Em             G            A                Em       
uncried, my dear. I am all out of love to mouth into your ear, and not above 
           G         A                 Em           Em* G* A*
letting a love song disappear before it's written. 
          D              G            Em        G                       
    And no one wants a tune about the 100th luftballoon that was seen 
Em                  G             A             Em                G
shooting from the window of your room, to be a spot against the sky's 
        A                   Em               G                  A
colossal gloom and land, deflated, in some neighbor state that's strewn with 
   Em         Em  G  A 
99 others.   




  Em               A                      D              A                Em
     8 Chinese brothers; well, there's a reason why the last is smiling wide 
             G              A      
and sitting higher than the others,
               Em          G A
swinging his arms.




D                G              Em    G        
You would probably die before you shot up 9 miles high
         Em             G                  A 
Your eyes dilated as light played upon the sight
 Em             G            A    
Of TVC16 as it sings you goodnight
 Em            G                  A
Relaxed as hell and locked up in cell 45
Em                        Em  G  A 
I hope you're feeling better



Em               A   
51st way to leave your lover
 D              A                Em 		   G              A 
Admittedly, it doesn't seem to be as gentle or as clean as all the others
 Em          							G A
Even a scars all in the after hours of some Greenpoint bar



D                           G              Em                  G        
I told you, I can't listen, baby, 'bout the 4th time you were a lady
Em             G                  A 
and how your forthrightness betrayed a secret shyness
Em                       G                     A    
Stripped away by days of being hailed as "your highness"
               Em            G                  A
And what's new pussycat, as you were once a lionness
Em                   Em G  A 
They cut your claws out



D            G              Em                  G   
Kitten, not everyone's keen on lighting candle 17, 
             Em             G                  A 
the party's done, the cake's all gone, the plates are clean
	        Em             G                  A 
The chauffeur's near and from the cheerless mezzanine
                Em             G                  A 
And in just one year, this straight world could pay to see 
Em                        Em  G  A 
what they have been missing


Em                                   A   
You were caught kissing 8 chinese brothers
                 D              A                Em 		   G              A 
Well, there's a reason why the last is smiling wide and sitting higher than the others
Em               G A
Staking with charm



Em                                               A   
And he says, "Lets get lost, let them send out alarms
Em                                          A   
He says, "Let's get crossed out and come to harm"
Em                                            A   
"Lets make the world's stupidest stand and truly mean it
Em                                   A   
Lets hit the limit of loss over lover's arms
Em
No, lets exceed it"

 A                                       Bm
Remember when our so-called friend would not call out to you 
               F#m                                     D Dsus2
while tumbling loosely out a hole punched through your home? 
     A                                        Bm
It's pretty clear, though you could hear, you truly finally knew,
              F#m                                D Dsus2
in time, he'd tell his tale the way he'd like it told.

       F#m          Bm
Now he isn't on the phone, 
        Bm                     D
and his story might as well be so.

       A                            Bm
Well, loving is as loving does, and I'd say we should know,
                     F#m                       D Dsus2
because we both have loved, have lost, and are alone. 
     A                                  Bm
Your face's falling tears, to me they're lovely and they're dear,
           F#m                                     D             Dsus2
though you don't love me and it's clear that I will never see you in my arms.

       F#m             Bm
There's no room in your heart
     Bm                        D Dsus2
for even this finely-sharpened dart; 

    A      F#m      Bm                         D              A        
although I had started to think there might be hope, it isn't so.

Bridge: A Bm F#m D Dsus2

   F#m             Bm               D                A
So wake up, make up some new song again around the same tune. 

           A                                       Bm 
The water cools, the leaves they fall, the sun it bends, the summer ends;
            D                A
our so-called friend doesn't need you.

			A                                  Bm
So proceed out the door and down the street. December's lying near,
           F#m                            D Dsus2
but in the oven's heat this house is now a home.
A                                  Bm
Sixty days of trips and stays you took to tell me, dear, 
            F#m                           D Dsus2
that you cannot love me because you secretly still love a stone. 

           F#m                 Bm              
Although I put my lips to your face, 
		  Bm                       D
trying to push his kiss out of its place, 

   A         F#m      Bm                      D                   A
although my heart started to race, now it has slowed, I'll let it go.


End: A Bm F#m D (X2) A

Packed and all eyes turned in, no one to see on the key.

No one waving for me just the shoreline receding.

     F                                             G
Looking deep inside but I don't want to look so deep inside yet.

There might not be another star, farther on the line.
C                                          Am
Look out, look out at each town that glides by,

And there's another crowd, to drown in crying eyes.

And see how that light you love now just won't shine,

We sing, is that marionette real enough yet to step off of that set

And decide what a dance might mean to it.

Ruining the place where the ensuing may lay escape.
C
We packed up all of our bags the ship's deck now sags
                                  Am
From the weight of our tracks as we pace beneath flags
              F                           G
Black and battered rattling our swords in service of some fated, foreign, war.

But we find that the maps he sent to us don't mention lost coastlines.
C                                               Am
Where nothing we've actually seen has been mapped or outlined

And we don't recognize the names upon strange signs.

Well we have lost our way, nobody's gonna say it outright.

Lost Coastlines

D              A                 Em                  G
To cheat on Maine islands — days of laughter, nights of sighing.
To love without ceasing — flowering orchards, salty sea-things.
To say without shyness “unreal city, you have killed me.”

Chorus   
         Bm            A              Em        G
When you walked out on her love was it easy?
When I left him while sleeping was I dreaming?

   D                   A             Em          G
We take each night's journey to the hotel in a hurry,
where we love without worry on a bed that's five days dirty.
And we read without irony from a book my husband bought for me.

Chorus 
         Bm        A              Em      G
When I fell on the concrete it was lovely,
because you could see what's been running so hot in me.
But when I fell on the concrete, you went white as a sheet
and wished that nothing in this world would ever hurt me. Well, keep wishing.

              D              A             Em            G
Because when I look in my future, I don't see you and don't wish to.
Idle talk made when I'm lying by your side on some Maine island
is too funny to me, honey, so let's drop it.
If you really want to love me, well, then do it.

Maine Island Lovers

School Friends

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 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

       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

It Ain't Me

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.
