G
In the midst of this nothing. This miss of a life.
       C
Still there's this wanting to see you go by.
       F
It's almost like lovin'. Sad as that is.
    C                     F
May not be cool, but it's so where I live.


     G
It's like I'm your lover or more like your ghost.
  C
I spend the day wondering what you do, where you go.
  F
I try and just kick it but what can I do.
      C                     F
We've all got our junk, and my junk is you.


        G
See us, winter walking after a storm.
        C
It's chill in the wind but it's warm in your arms.
        F               C
The stop all snow line, may not be true.
      G                     F             C
We've all got our junk, and my junk is you.


             G
Well, you?ll have to excuse me, I know it?s so off.
  C
I love when you do stuff that?s rude and so wrong.
     F
I go up to my room, turn the stereo on?
C                          F
Shoot up some you, and the you is some song.


  G
I lie back just driftin' and play out these scenes
  C
I ride on the rush of all the hopes and the dreams.
  F
I May be neglecting the things I should do.
    C                               F
But we've all got our junk, and my junk is you.


       G
See we still keep talkin' after you're gone.
       C
You still with me then feels so good in my arms.
       F               C
They say you go blind, maybe it's true.
       G                    F             C
We've all got our junk, and my junk is you.


       F               C
It's like we stop time. What can I do?
       G                    F             C
We've all got our junk, and my junk is you.
 F          C
My junk is you.
 F          C
My junk is you.
 F    F    F
You. You. You.

You say, "Time for bed now child."

Just like she never saw me.
C             Em
Just like she never saw me.

     Am        G
So I leave one just to hide

I lie there and breathe.

Lie there and breathe.

I wanna be strong. I want the world to find out

The Dark I Know Well

Intro: Em, Em
Em      G
Whispering
         C                 Em
Hear the ghosts in the moonlight
Em             G
Sorrow doing a new dance
              C                  D
Through their bones, through their skin

Em     G
Listening
       C                  Em
To the souls in the fools night
Em                       G
Fumbling mutely with their rude hands
            C              D
And there's heartache without end

        C              Em
See the father bent in grief
    G                 A
The mother dressed in mourning
       C                Em
Sister crumbles and the neighbors grumble
    G               A
The preacher issues warnings

Em    G
History
       C              Em
Little miss didn't do right
Em               G
Went and ruined all the true plans
       C            D
Such a shame, such a sin

Em    G
Mystery
      C                Em
Home alone on a school night
Em              G
Harvest moon over the blue land
       C            D
Summer longing on the wind

      C                 Em
Had a sweetheart on his knees
   G             A
So faithful and adoring
       C                Em
And he touched me and I let him love me
   G              A
So let that be my story

Em     G
Listening
        C                 Em
For the hope, for the new life
Em                G
Something beautiful, a new chance
         C
Hear its whispering 
      D              Em
There again

Whispering

D E G C


Bm          G
Where I go, when i go there,
A              Bm
No more memory anymore-
Bm          G
Only men on distant ships,
A                                        Em
The women with them, swimming with them, to shore

Bm          G
Where I go, when I go there,
A                  Bm
No more whispering anymore-
Bm              G
Only hymns upon your lips;
A                                  Em
A mystic wisdom, rising with them, to shore

D       E
Touch me-just like that.
G                C
And that-oh, yeah-now, that's heaven.
D                 E
Now, that I like.
God that's so nice.
G                C
Now lower down, where the figs lie



Pretty much the same throughout the rest of the song

Touch Me

[Melchior]
Am           C
All that's known,
Am             G
In History, in Science,
Am       C
Overthrown
Am                       G
At school, at home, by blind men.


C           F
You doubt them,
C
And soon they bark and hound you-
D
Till everything you say is just another bad about you.


Am        C
All they say
Am                    G
Is "Trust in What Is Writen."
Am         C
Wars are made.
Am                   G
And somehow that is wisdom.


C             F
Thought is suspect,
C
And money is their idol,
D
And nothing is okay unless it's scripted in their Bible.


C
But I know
G
There's so much more to find-
D                                      Em
just in lookin through myself, and not at them.


C
Still, I know
G
To trust my own true mind,
D                                   Em
And to say: there's a way through this...


Am    C
On I go,
Am                   G
To wonder and to learning-
Am          C       Am                G
name the stars and know their dark returning.


C        F
I'm calling,
C
To know the world's true yearning-
C
The hunger that a child feels for everything they're shown.


C
You watch me-
G
Just watch me-
Em
I'm calling,
D
And one day all will know.


C
You watch me-
G
Just watch me-
Em              C
I'm calling,I'm calling
                      Am
And one day all will know.

The Guilty Ones

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

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

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.
