...Like Clockwork

Queens of the Stone Age is a hard rock band from Palm Desert, California, United States. The band is frequently labeled stoner rock, although they reject the label. QOTSA developed a style of riff-oriented, heavy music which the band's founder and mastermind Josh Homme described as 'robot rock', saying that he &quot;wanted to create a heavy sound based on a solid jam, just pound it into your head&quot;. Since then, their sound has evolved to incorporate a variety of different styles and influences.  

Am

We get some rules to follow

That and this



          E      E7

These and those



              Am

No one knows



Am

We get these pills to swallow

How they stick



        E       E7

In your throat



                  Am

Tastes like gold



               E       E7

Oh, what you do to me



             Am

No one knows



(Chorus)

      Am  C          E

And I realize you're mine

 Am      C       E

Indeed a fool of mine

      Am  C          E

And I realize you're mine

 Am      C       E

Indeed a fool of mine

Ahh



(Same pattern as above)

I journey through the desert

Of the mind

With no hope



I found low



I drift along the ocean

Dead lifeboats in the sun

And come undone



Pleasently caving in

I come undone



And I realize you're mine

Indeed a fool of mine

And I realize you're mine

Indeed a fool and mine

Ahhh



Heaven smiles above me

What a gift there below

But no one knows



A gift that you give to me

No one knows

No One Knows

If I Had A Tail

Cmaj7                             A   A7
You wanna know if I know where
                    E7
I can't say that I do
Cmaj7                             A   A7
Don't understand the evil and
                   E7
Or how one becomes two
Cmaj7                             A   A7
I just can't recall what started it all
                    E7
Or how to begin the end
Cmaj7                             A   A7
I ain't here to break it
                    E7
Just see how far it will bend


CHORUS:

Cmaj7         A
I wanna make it

A7                  E7
I wanna make it wit chu


VERSE 2:
Sometimes the same is different
But mostly it's the same
These mysteries of life
That just ain't my thang
If I told you that I knew about the sun and the moon
I'd be untrue
The only thing I know for sure
Is what I won't do
Anytime, anywhere

Make It Wit Chu

--Verse 1--
D                Bb     D
I never lie to myself tonight.
D                          Bb                D
Rose-tinted eyes, color my sorrow a shade of wine.
A   G   Bb    A  Bb
Bye-bye black balloon.

See you real soon.



--Chorus--
D              A                   G        Bb5        C5
Oh, why you so sad? What have they done?
   D                    A                          G    Bb5 C5
Forget those mindless baboons, they're off playing God.
D                 A                    G      Bb5     C5
Copycats in cheap suits are playing it safe,
      D                A                G         A5 Bb5
While cannibals of bad news consume the parade.

            Is it wonderful?



--Bridge--
D           Bb    D
A     G     Bb    A   Bb
D


--Verse 2--
D             D                  Bb                 D
Far, far from shore, the land of nightmares gone forever more.
    D                    Bb       D
And I love you more than I can control.
A G     Bb A   Bb
I don't e--ven try. Why would I?



--Chorus--
D                A                       G        Bb5        C5
Oh, why the long face? You've got it all wrong.
   D                 A                             G   Bb5  C5
Forget the rat in the race, we'll choke chain them all.
D               A                 G        Bb5        C5
Fates favor the ones who help themselves.
    D  ~~~        D  ~~~       A   ~~~      G   
The rest feel the sting of the lash as they row,
A#5                C5   
the boat, the boat to 
D5 ~~~  D5 ~~~  Db5 ~~~ Db5 ~~~
Hell!


--Outro--
G5    Bb5   G5    Bb5     x3
G5    Bb5   G5 ~~~

Smooth Sailing

Eb                        B
Where, oh, where have you been my love?
B                        Eb
Where, oh, where can you be?
Eb                           B
It's been so long, since the moon has gone.
B                               Eb
and oh what a wreck you've made me

        G               D
Are you there, over the ocean?
        C                B
Are you there, up in the sky?
Eb                     B
Until the return of my love
          Eb
This lullaby

Every face, it's your eyes I can see
  Eb                         B
I plead, I pray through each night and day
      B               Eb
Our embrace is only a dream.

      G                       D
And as sure as days come from moments
     C                     B
Each hour becomes a life's time

When she'd left, I'd only begun this lullaby

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

lets run away


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.

Gonna Be A Long Time

C#
There's a portrait
     Ab
In a back room
           F#
Which I'll keep for days upon
          C#
Which I relent 
              B
And gaze for hours on
    Bbm                  F#
The muscle, skin and bone
         Ab
Of some imaginary friend

F# Ab F#

        C#
So how about it 
        Ab
Show me please 
           F#
How I will look in twenty years
           C#
And let me please 
          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.

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

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
