Let Your Dim Light Shine

Grave Dancers Union

Soul Asylum is an american alternative rock band formed in the summer of 1981 by Minneapolis high school friends Dan Murphy, Karl Mueller, and Dave Pirner. The band (named Loud Fast Rules up until 1984) quickly became frontrunners of American college rock, following in the tradition of fellow Minnesota bands H&uuml;sker D&uuml; and The Replacements.  Landing their first record deal with Twin/Tone in 1984, Soul Asylum recorded a total of four albums for the local label: Say What You Will... Everything Can Happen in 1984 (later reissued as <span title="Unknown album" class="bbcode_unknown">Say What You Will, Clarence.</span>

1st Verse :
C                   C
 Call you up in the middle of the night
Em              Em
 Like a firefly without a light
Am                     Am
 You were there like a blowtorch burning
G                       G
 I was a key that could use a little turning
C                C
 So tired that I couldn't even sleep
Em               Em
 So many secrets I couldn't keep
Am               Am
 Promised myself I wouldn't leave
G                 G
 One more promise I couldn't keep

Pre-Chorus :
   F                G
It seems no one can help me now
        C                   Am
And I'm in too deep there's no way out
F                Em           G            G
This time I have really led myself astray


Chorus:
C              C
 Runaway train never going back
Em              Em
 Wrong way on a one way track
Am                      Am
 Seems like I should be getting somewhere
G                    G                G     Gx 
 Somehow I'm neither here nor there                E|----3---5---3---0------|


2nd verse :
C                  C
 Can you help me remember how to smile
Em                   Em
 Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
Am                  Am
 How on earth did I get so jaded
G               G
 Life's mystery seems so faded
C                C 
 I can go where no one else can go
Em            Em
 I know what no one else knows
Am              Am
 Here I am just drownin&#8217; in the rain
G                    G
 With a ticket for a runaway train
Pre-chorus :
F             G
Everything is cut and dry
C              Am
Day and night Earth and sky
F        Em            G
Somehow I just don't believe it


Chorus:
C              C
 Runaway train never going back
Em              Em
 Wrong way on a one way track
Am                      Am

&quot;Misery&quot; is a 1995 song performed by the Minneapolis rock band Soul Asylum. Although Let Your Dim Light Shine critically suffered in comparison to its predecessor, Grave Dancers Union, &quot;Misery&quot; managed to hit number 20 on The Billboard Hot 100 and number 1 on the US Modern Rock Tracks chart. The song also featured prominently in Kevin Smith's 2006 movie Clerks II.  Some people have speculated that the song itself is referring to the fact that the record companies like to make &quot;Misery&quot; (aka alternative rock songs with dark lyrics).

&quot;Runaway Train&quot; is a song by the Minneapolis rock band Soul Asylum.  The song led Soul Asylum to international status, and helped bring their album, Grave Dancers Union to a multi-platinum level.  It was the third single off the album (see Soul Asylum discography) and reached No. 5 on the Billboard charts. It won a Grammy Award for the best rock song in 1994.  The song has become synonymous with the band, and has led many people to believe that it is the group's only hit, categorizing Soul Asylum as a one-hit wonder band.

It Ain't Me

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
             C                  D
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

                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
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 C D 


       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

Here We Go Looby Loo

(Verse)
Em              G                                     
47 millionaires on a ship with marble squares
D
Licking up their lollipops
A           C
No one ever interrupts
Em              G                           
47 millionaires on a ship with marble squares
D
Playing with their teddy bears
A                 C      Em
talking 'bout the rising fares
Em              G                            
47 millionaires on a ship with marble squares
D
Whistling to their favorite song
A                  C
Dancing, laughing, all night long
Em              G                             
47 millionaires on a ship with marble squares 
D
Praying to the morning sun 
A                  C      Em
Talking with their golden tongue

(Pre-chorus)
      G            D      Em  
And I wished I was one of them
      G            D      Em
And I wished I was one of them

(Chorus)
    C                            G
I'd love to be a millionaire, I wished I had a golden mare
    D                                  Em
And I would waste my precious time, by looking for the perfect rime
C                           G
Life is easy, life is good, it would be like Hollywood
   D            C      Em
If I could be a millionaire

(Verse)
Em              G                           
47 millionaires on a ship with marble squares
      D
There was a wave, that killed 
             A            C
Them all and now the lollipops are gone
Em              G                           
47 millionaires on a ship with marble squares
D
Travelling to the Nowhere-Land
A                     C     Em
Where nasty pleasures never end

(Pre-chorus)
      G            D      Em 
And I wished I was one of them 
      G            D      Em
And I wished I was one of them

(Bridge)
    Em          D               Em        D              Em           
Hey tell me how can it be, that money can set you free,  tell me 
    D               C         D
How can it be, that money can set you

Em          D               Em        D              Em           
Tell me how can it be, that money can set you free,  tell me 
    D               C         D
How can it be, that money can set you,  
C         D        Em
Money can set you free

(Chorus)
    C                            G
I'd love to be a millionaire, I wished I had a golden mare
    D                                  Em
And I would waste my precious time, by looking for the perfect rime
C                           G
Life is easy, life is good, it would be like Hollywood
   D            C      Em
If I could be a millionnaire
        D            C      Em
If only I could be a millionaire
