The Way It Was

Losing Sleep

There is more than one band with this name:  1.) Original Parachute was founded as a project in 2000 in Germany, focussing on ambient, drone, experimental and space sounds, and processed music, their musical roots are resulting out of krautrock, ambient, minimal drones, and soundscapes like Thomas Köner and earlier electronic music like Morton Feldmann, Klaus Schulze, John Cage etc

(C)                    (G)                (Am)
She's sitting at the table, the hours get later

                  (F)
He was supposed to be here

                            (C)
She's sure he would have called

                      (G)                           (Am)
She waits a little longer, there's no one in the driveway

                         (F)
No one's said they've seen him

                     (C)
Why, is something wrong?

                         (G)
She looks back to the window

                    (Am)
Suddenly the phone rings

                           (F)
A voice says something's happened

                         (C)
That she should come right now

                     (G)
Her mind goes to December

                     (Am)
She thinks of when he asked her

                    (F)
He bent down on his knees first, and he said


[Chorus:]

(C)            (G)            (Am)
I want you forever, forever and always

            (F)                       (C)
Through the good and the bad and the ugly

                 (G)
We'll grow old together

             (Am)  (F)
Forever and always



(From here on its exactly the same as above. Repeat the chords C, G, Am, F. Bridge included.)


[Verse 2:]

She pulls up to the entrance

She walks right to the front desk

They lead her down a million halls, a maze that's never ending

They talk about what happened but she can barely hear them

She tries to keep a straight face as she walks into the room

She sits by his bedside, holds his hand too tight

They talk about the kids they're gonna have and the good life

The house on the hillside, where they would stay


[Chorus:]

Stay there forever, forever and always

Through the good and the bad and the ugly

We'll grow old together, and always remember

Whether rich or for poor or for better

We'll still love each other, forever and always


[Bridge:]

Then she gets an idea and calls in the nurses

Brings up the chaplain and he says a couple verses

She borrows some rings from the couple next door

Everybody's laughing as the tears fall on the floor

She looks into his eyes, and she says


[Chorus:]

I want you forever, forever and always

Through the good and the bad and the ugly

We'll grow old together, and always remember

Whether happy or sad or whatever

We'll still love each other, forever and always

Forever and always, forever and always


She finishes the vows but the beeps are getting too slow
His voice is almost too low
As he says, I love you forever, forever and always
Please just remember even if I'm not there
I'll always love you, forever and always

Forever And Always

Kiss Me Slowly

# (If you want to match the recorded version, you can put the Capo on 3, but I prefer # it without.)
Intro:
| D Dsus4 | Dsus2 Asus4 | Gsus2  | Gsus2  :||x2

       Em7          Asus4
Like a gunshot from miles away
D/F#    Gsus2
She's moving in
      Em7A            Asus4
Like a rainstorm with out the clouds
D/F#        Gsus2
She falls on him
        Em7           Asus4
Like a phone call to worn the truth
D/F#        Gsus2
It never rings

[Chorus:]
       Asus4       Dsus4    Gsus2
It's the truth before the lies
         Asus4    Dsus4  Gsus2
It's the way she doesn't try
        Asus4   Dsus4  Gsus2
It's the wink before the sly

In Philadelphia

[Verse 2:]
    Em7          Asus4
They met after work one day
        D/F#      G
She laughed with him
      Em7            Asus4
They drove off their separate ways
       D/F#    G
Then met for drinks
      Em7             Asus4            D/F#   G
When he got home the silent guilt was deafening

[Chorus:]
          Asus4  Dsus4      Gsus2
It's the truth before the lies
          Asus4   Dsus4    Gsus2
It's the way she doesn't try
          Asus4  Dsus4  Gsus2
It's the wink before the sly
In Philadelphia
In Philadelphia

[Bridge:]
 			        D/F#
She thought that love was gonna fight
 			               Gsus2
She thought that love was gonna take her home
                  		Asus4
She thought that love was gonna save her
 			D
But love just never showed
 				G
She felt that love was always watching
 			     Asus4
Oh that love was supposed to win
  			D/F#
But sometimes it's the demons
Gsus2
That are standing in the end

He slips off his worn out suit and tries to rest
She's a million miles away across the bed
She rolls over puts her hand across his chest

[Chorus:]
It's the truth before the lies
It's the way she doesn't try
It's the wink before the sly
In Philadelphia
In Philadelphia
In Philadelphia
oooooooohooooo
oooooooohooooo

Am7/E           G/B*     C
Stay with me, baby stay with me
  F                      G
Tonight, don't leave me alone
Am7/E           G/B*
Walk with me
          C
Come and walk with me
        F                      G
To the edge of all we've ever known
      Am7/E                           G/B*
I can see you there with the city lights
C
Fourteenth floor pale blue eyes
      F                G
I can breathe you in

     Am7/E                             G/B*
Two shadows standing by the bedroom door
    C
You know I could not want you more
       F
Then I did right then
       G
As our heads leaned in



     F
Well I'm not sure what this going to be
    C
But with my eyes closed all I see
       Am7/E
Is the sky line through the window
    G
The moon above you and the streets below
F
Hold my breath as you're moving in
C
Taste your lips and feel your skin
         Am7/E
When the time comes
                     G
Baby don't run, just kiss me slowly

Am7/E   G/B*   C    F    G



Am7/E           G/B*   C
Stay with me, baby stay with me
   F                      G
Tonight, don't leave me alone (me alone)
    Am7/E                          G/B*
She shows everything she used to know
C
Picture frame and country roads
     F                        G
When days were long, and the world was small
    Am7/E                   G/B*
She stood by has it fell apart
C
Seperate rooms and broken hearts
    F                             G
But I won't be the one to let you go

Ohhhh


     F
Well I'm not sure what this going to be
    C
But with my eyes closed all I see
       Am7/E
Is the sky line through the window
    G
The moon above you and the streets below
F
Hold my breath as you're moving in
C
Taste your lips and feel your skin
         Am7/E
When the time comes

Baby don't run, just kiss me slowly

F   C
          Am7/E      G        F
Don't run away
                      C
And it's hard to love again
                       Am7/E
When the only way it's been
                       G
When the only love you knew

Just walked away.
F                          C
If it's something that you want
                          Am7/E
Darling you don't have to run
                  G
You don't have to go

     Am7/E            G/B*   C
Just stay with me, baby stay with me


     F 
Well I'm not sure what this going to be
    C
But with my eyes closed all I see
       Am7/E
Is the sky line through the window
    G
The moon above you and the streets below

When the time comes,
                     G
Baby don't run, just kiss me slowly

F
I'm not sure where this is going to go
    C
But in this moment all I know
       Am7/E
Is the sky line through the window
    G
The moon above you and the streets below
F
Hold my breath as you're moving in
C
Taste your lips and feel your skin
         Am7/E
When the time comes, baby don't run 
     G
Just kiss me slowly

                  D#m                               C#          B
I've been beaten down, I've been kicked around,
    D#m                C#      B
But she takes it all for me.
          D#m                              C#         B
And I lost my faith, in my darkest days,
     D#m                       C#        B
But she makes me want to believe.

                          F#     C#      D#m-C#       F#
They call her love, love, love, love, love. (x2)

She is love, and she is all I need.

She's all I need.

        D #m                                    C#       B
Well I had my ways, they were all in vain,
      D#m             C#      B
And she waited patiently.
         D#m                                C#             B
It was all the same, all my pride and shame,
       D#m               C#     B
And she put me on my feet.

                          F#     C#     D#m-C#       F#
They call her love, love, love, love, love. (x3)
          D#m                       C#      (F# 3rd time)

G      Em
I found a love for me
               C                         D
Darling just dive right in, and follow my lead
                G                 Em
Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet
          C                                  D
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me

                                 G
Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
              Em                     C               G  D
Not knowing what it was, I will not give you up this ti-ime
                   G                         Em
But darling just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own

And in your eyes you’re holding mine

       Em   C            G          D              Em
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

               G                    Em
Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
                C                                        D
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I’ll share her home
           G             Em
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
         C                              D
To carry love, to carry children of our own

                              G                     Em 
We are still kids, but we’re so in love, fighting against all odds
                  C               G  D
I know that we’ll be alright this ti-ime
               G                            Em 
Darling just hold my hand, be my girl, I’ll be your man
          C              D
I see my future in your eyes



       Em   C            G          D              Em
Baby, I’m dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
C                G     D                Em

Who lives down the lane.

1) Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah       River.
2) miner's lady,         stranger to blue water.

        that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

Country Roads

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

            F                 C                 G

             F                    C                G

       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

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
