Dm
Comme un éclat de rire vient consoler tristesse
Dm                                         Bb
Comme un souffle avenir vient raviver les braises
Bb                                            C
Comme un parfum de soufre qui fait naître la flamme
F         C         Dm
Jeunesse lève-toi

Dm
Contre la vie qui va qui vient puis qui s'éteint
Dm                                         Bb
Contre l'amour qu'on prend, qu'on tient mais qui tient pas
Bb                                            C
Contre la trace qui s'efface au derrière de soi
F         C         Dm
Jeunesse lève-toi

Dm
Moi, contre ton épaule je repars à la lutte
Dm                                         Bb
Contre les gravités qui nous mènent à la chute
Bb                                            C
Pour faire du bruit encore à réveiller les morts
F         C         Dm
Pour redonner éclat à l'émeraude en toi

Dm
Pour rendre au crépuscule la beauté des aurores
Dm                                         Bb
Dis-moi qu'on brûle encore, dis-moi qu'on brûle encore
Bb                                            C
Cet espoir que tu tiens parce que tu n'en sais rien
F         C         Dm
De la fougue et du feu que je vois dans tes yeux
F         C         Dm
Jeunesse lève-toi

Dm
Quand tu vois comme on pleure à chaque rue sa peine
Dm                                         Bb
Comment on nous ecoeure perfusion dans la veine
Bb                                            C
A l'ombre du faisceau mon vieux, tu m'auras plus
F         C         Dm
Ami, dis, quand viendra la crue ?

Dm
Contre-courant toujours sont les contre-cultures
Dm                                         Bb
Au gré des émissions, leurs gueules de vide-ordures
Bb                                            C
Puisque c'en est sonné la mort du politique
F         C         Dm
L'heure est aux rêves utopiques

Dm
Pour faire nos ADN un peu plus équitables
Dm                                         Bb
Pour faire de la poussière un peu plus que du sable
Bb                                            C
Dans ce triste pays tu sais, un jour ou l'autre
F         C         Dm
Faudra tuer le père faire entendre ta voix
F         C         Dm
Jeunesse lève-toi

Dm
Au clair de lune indien toujours surfer la vague
Dm                                         Bb
A l'âme au creux des reins faut aiguiser la lame
Bb                                            C
Puisqu'ici, il n'y a qu'au combat qu'on est libre
               F         C         Dm
De ton triste sommeil, je t'en prie, libère-toi

Dm
Puisqu'ici il faut faire des bilans et du chiffre
Dm                                         Bb
Sont nos amours toujours au bord du précipice
Bb                                            C
N'entends-tu pas ce soir chanter le chant des morts ?
           F         C         Dm
Ne vois-tu pas le ciel à la portée des doigts ?
F         C         Dm
Jeunesse lève-toi

Dm
Comme un éclat de rire vient consoler tristesse
Dm                                         Bb
Comme un souffle avenir vient raviver les braises,
Bb                                            C
Comme un parfum de soufre qui fait naître la flamme
           F         C         Dm
Quand, plongé dans le gouffre, on sait plus où est l'âme
F         C         Dm
Jeunesse lève-toi

Dm
Contre la vie qui va, qui vient puis qui nous perd
Dm                                         Bb
Contre l'amour qu'on prend, qu'on tient puis qu'on enterre
Bb                                            C
Contre la trace qui s'efface au derrière de soi

Jeunesse lève-toi

Dm
Au clair de lune indien toujours surfer la vague

Puisqu'ici, il n'y a qu'au combat qu'on est libre
           F         C         Dm
De ton triste coma, je t'en prie, libère-toi

Puisqu'ici, il faut faire des bilans et du chiffre

A la mémoire de ceux qui sont tombés pour toi ?

Dm
Dis-moi qui sont ces gens
Am
Qui se montrent indécents
E                       Am 
Qui s'embrassent en public?
Dm
Moi je suis seul au monde
Am
Je n'ai pas de Joconde
E                    Am 
Pour faire les romantiques.
Dm
Dis quelle est cette ville
Am
Aux eternelles idylles?
E                Am 
J'ai oublié son nom.
Dm
En connais-tu la route?
Am
Et le prix que ça coûte
E                       Am 
D'aimer à perdre la raison?
Dm
Dis-moi qui sont ces gens
Am
Qui promènent en semant
E                  Am 
La grâce derrière eux.
Dm
Rendant plus beau le monde
Am
Qui emportent à la tombe
E                Am 
Leur amour avec eux.
Dm
Connais-tu leur chemin, 
Am
Le secret qui les tient
E              Am 
A la bonne fortune?
Dm
Moi je n'ai que mes mains
Am
Pour abriter chagrin
E                       Am 
Quand eux, ils ont la lune.
Dm
Dis-moi qui sont ces gens
Am
Qui abritent éclatant
E                       Am 
Leurs yeux de trop d'orages?
Dm
Dis-moi qui sont ces dieux
Am
Qui des foudres et des cieux
E                  Am 
Savent faire bon usage?
Dm
Et rester hors du temps
Am
Quand nous autres n'avons
E                       Am 
Que d'hiver pour pâturage
Dm
Pour nous tristes pigeons
Am
Qui sans destination
E                       Am 
Nous renvoient nos messages.
Dm
Dis-moi qui sont ces gens
Am
Qui rient comme des enfants
E                       Am 
Qui se donnent la réplique?
Dm
Celle des Roméo, 
Am
Des Tristan, des Rimbaud,
E                       Am 
Celle des grandes musiques.
Dm
Moi je n'ai que moi-même
Am
Pour montrer de mon coeur
E               Am 
Sa nature impudique.
Dm
Dis-qui sont ces bourreaux
Am
Qui nous tuent sans un mot
E                       Am 
De leurs yeux magnifiques? 
Dm
Dis-qui sont ces bourreaux
Am
Qui nous tuent sans un mot
E                       Am 
De leurs yeux magnifique

Dis Moi Qui Sont Ces Gens

Am                                           F
Tu voulais du médiocre et moi j'en avais pas
Am                                          C
Tu voulais l'univers et moi j'avais que moi
F                                              G
Tu voulais le silence quand j'étais que musique
Em                                             Am
Qu'on marche parallèle quand j'allais qu'à l'oblique
 
Am                                                       F
Tu voulais des rivières au milieu du désert
Am                                          C
Tu voulais les voyages, moi j'étais sédentaire
F                                             G
Que je fasse des chansons qui m'emmènent au sourire
Em                                            Am
J'y peux rien moi je n'ai que des larmes à leur dire
F                                            Am
Et des plaines de pluie pour unique empire
 
 
Am                                                       F
Quand je serai parti que lira mes poèmes
Am                                          C
Un autre romantique qui se verra en moi
F                                             G
Il se dira sans doute : Oh c'est beau comme il l'aime
Em                                            Am
Mais qu'il sache que je n'ai jamais aimé que moi
F                                            Am
Qu'au lit ou dans le coeur l'égoïsme est la mère ... des générosités
 
Am                                                       F
Que les femmes me pardonnent de n'être fait pour elles
Am                                          C
D'être comme un nuage qui recherche son ciel  
F                                             G
De n'être qu'un navire toujours à la détresse
Em                                            Am
Et cette envie de fuir de ceux qui sont en laisse
  
Am                                                       F
Pardonnez-moi vous tous qui vous liez les mains
Am                                          C
Vous qui pensez qu'à deux vous ferez mieux le chemin
F                                             G
Vous qui pensez que l'autre vous sauvera la peau
Em                                            Am
Alors que de votre âme il fera des lambeaux

Am                                                       F
En amour que l'on soit le plus grand des guerriers
Am                                          C
Ou la triste brebis qui cherche le berger
F                                             G
On finit tous à terre à chercher les morceaux
Em                                            Am
Au bord du précipice à deux pas du grand saut ... à deux pas du tombeau

Le Bal Des Lycées

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

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.

Overreacting

time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.
