Hold Me

A#
You came home last night and seemed far away

      Gm
I could not believe

         C
that you were alright with everything

         A#
Night is the key that unravels everything

          Gm
When it all comes down

           C
And people tend to erupt without a sound

A#, Gm, C, A#

        F                   C                          F                                        C
I know you don't like how I feed but please try to remember it's natural for a thing like me

      Am    C            F       Am
Electricity is in my soul, soul

      Am    C            F       Am
Electricity is in my soul, soul


Am  C Am C

    A#
I snuck outside once you fell asleep

         Gm
and I walked down the road

      C
to give my electronics an overload

    A#
It's easy to be angry at something

      Gm
that you don't understand

       C
And people tend to be stubborn with where they stand

A#, Gm, C, A#

  F                        C                             F                                         C
I know you don't like how I feed but please try to remember it's natural for a thing like me

       Am  C              F     Am
Electricity is in my soul, soul

       Am  C              F     Am
Electricity is in my soul, soul

       Am  C              F     Am
Electricity is in my soul, soul

       Am  C              F     Am
Electricity is in my soul, soul

  C     Am 
Soul, soul

  C     Am
Soul, soul

  C     Am
Soul, soul

  C     Am
Soul, soul 

      Am             G    C
Electricity is in my soul

Electricity Is In My Soul

(Verse)
Am                       F
Is there such a thing as too much of a good thing?
  G
I ask myself that everyday
Am                                      F
That is until the weekend comes and the sun has gone away to sleep
G
Then there's only one thing on my mind (a good time)

(Chorus)
N/C
That's right
Am                  F                G
Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Saturday)
Am                        F                G
Yeah, Me and my baby love Saturday nights, Saturday nights
(Saturday)

(Verse)
         Am              F
With The dancing and the singing, 
         G
Like the weekdays never happened
  Am          F         G
I could be, I should be dancing right now 'cause


(Chorus)

(Verse)
Am                      F  
The talk of the town is where we're headed next
G
Cause everywhere we go is the best
(The very, very best)
Am                            F
It doesn't matter the company but we're pretty good company
G
For you to have around
(Around, Around, Around)

(Chorus)

(Verse)
         Am              F
With The dancing and the singing, 
         G
Like the weekdays never happened
  Am          F         G
I could be, I should be dancing right now 'cause

(Chorus)


Here we go...my baby & I, My baby and I-hai...My baby!
We're goin' Dancin' tonight!

(Verse)
Am                             F
The dull-drum of the work week gets me feeling down
G
Misery and sorrow follow us around
Am                               F
But when that music hits and the band starts to play
G
Please, you better get out of our way

(Chorus 2X)

(KEY OF S)

(Verse)
               G
I only saw her once
                   Am
But that was all I needed
          G              
And now I know she's the one
          Am
I've been dreaming of
                    G
And only she will do

(Verse 2)
                    G
I haven't slept for days
                  Am
Can't focus on anything
             G
She's always on my mind
             Am
And God it'd be so kind
                      G
If you could let me be

(Verse 3)
              G
For my entire life
                  Am
I never knew what love was like
             G         
But now I've felt its touch
         Am
And it's far too much
                     G
For me to hold inside


(Chorus) 
F#            G
Feels like I'm

 Life is so wonderful

And everything is by far

(So spectacular)
G 
Feel like I've never felt
Am
 Seen things I've never seen
G
 Being with her will make me happy
Am
And I'm falling in love
 G     Am    G
(Don't catch him)

(Bridge)
G                    
Few girls will offer you
Am                      
A love that feels like this
G
Don't ask for any more
Am
Just run and go with it
 
(Chorus)
F#            G
Feels like I'm

On Top Of The Universe

(Intro)
Bm

(Verse)
Bm
Ever since the first time I opened my eyes
D
I've awakened to the same thing
F#m                                        Bm
Other automaton friends roughly built like me


Bm
The first time I opened my mouth to speak
D
Steam escaped to the air
F#m                                             Bm
And black oil dripped from my lips and onto the ground

     Bm
Well daylight struck a chord with my photo-receptors
D
Night greeted me with a sea of stars
    F#m                                           Bm
Our eyes all flashed blues and greens through the night

(Verse)
Bm
People are soaring, always exploring,
D
Higher than they've ever been before
    F#m
But we are still down here, feet on the ground near
A
What will rise us up with the rest

    Bm
Our thoughts are quixotic, stark and robotic,
  D
mechanical in nature all the time
    F#m
And pulses are firing in our head wiring,
A
guiding all our actions and beings


(Chorus)

I am not an unimaginable thing
D                                      F#m
My thoughts are tangible though they're full of springs
  A                                Bm
I don't have the heart to send you untruthful words

My skin is cold to the touch and made from the earth

Oh, oh it's so down, but baby its sound
                     A
makes your worries cease to pound
    Bm                 D                   F#m
And oh, maybe it's alright, 'cause baby it fights
                      A
For some time just to be held tight

    Bm                   D                             F#m
And oh, maybe it's not wrong, 'cause it sings a lovely song
                A
One that drifts on for so long
    Bm                  D                  F#m
And oh, baby let's not lie, it's eyes are alive
                       A
And pointed up shining light to the sky

E  
When he was a boy
              G#7
he wanted to play
C#m           A
down by the sea

            E
At age thirteen
                G#7
everyday after school
C#m              A                
he would always sail around the lake

E
All the people would stand and stare
        G#7
as he sailed around with precision and care
         E
With his bi-corner hat and the way he would stand
    G#7
he looked just like a Navy man
C#m                                   A
All the townsfolk would gather and say, and sing away

E                 A
Captain Albert Alexander
            B                 A
He'll be a brave seafarer someday
          E              A
But that Captain Albert Alexander
B                    A
He'll go down in the waves

              E  
By age twenty four
              G#7
he had left the shore
C#m           A
and was sailing for the Queen

              E  
On a dark starry night
              G#7
Albert awoke to the sound
C#m           A
of his Captain screaming as he was drowned

E
The Navy crew was taking a lick
        G#7
pirates had invaded the ship
         E
But Albert with one aimed harpoon
    G#7
ignited their rum with a spark and soon
C#m                                   A
flames drove the pirates away ... the Navy sang

E                 A
Captain Albert Alexander
            B                 A
Saved his crew from pirate slaughter
          E              A
But that Captain Albert Alexander
B                    A
He'll go down in the water

            E
Now everyone dance
G#7     C#m      A
Dance. Dance. Daaaaaaaaaance

                        E  
Twenty some odd years later
                  G#7
On his ship The Sea Slater
    C#m                    A
He sailed into a mass of blubber

                   E  
Gazing up to the sky
                 G#7
stood a large walrus
           C#m              A                  E
that was a hundred stories high, it meant no harm

                                     G#7
The walrus was in a great deal of pain
                                     E
It suffered from a tusk with tooth decay
                                       G#7
Albert threw his anchor 'round it's tusk
                                            C#m 
with a little bit of pulling it was out by dusk
                               A
The walrus thanked Albert and sang, as he sailed away

E                 A
Captain Albert Alexander
            B                 A
Friend to sea urchin and me
          E              A
But that Captain Albert Alexander
B                    A
He'll go down in the sea

      G#7                    C#m
At a ripe old age lightning struck from the sky
     G#7                     C#m
and split Albert's vessel in two
     G#7            C#m          
One hundred men fled for their lives
     G#7                  C#m
on rafts across the ocean blue

C#m                   A           
Albert stood at the stern of his ship
   C#m               A
A giant octopus had him in it's grip
   C#m                  A
A vortex of spiraling death below ripped
   C#m                         A
and sharks and electric eels all made the trip 
       C#m
to see Albert
E                         A 
sink to the bottom of the sea

C#m                  A
Just before he went down
C#m                  A
he called out to his crew
C#m                   A
It's obvious that my time has come
      C#m              A
I'll let this ending ensue
      C#m                       A 
I've led an exciting nautical life it would seem
            C#m                   A
and there's no better end than a death by the sea ... His crew sang

E                 A
Captain Albert Alexander
            B                 A
He went down in the sea
          E              A
But that Captain Albert Alexander
B                    A
He'll go down in history

E                       A
That Captain Albert Alexander
         B           E A B  E   B   E
He went down in the seeeee-ee--hee-hea!

G                                            
I'm sittin' there by the girl with the golden hair

Em
Ruby lips, poppin' gum an electric stare

Am                          D
Dashboard lights glowing red and the moonlight catching on her pretty head

G
Black leather, lace, belt buckle grease

Em
In my white cadillaic, may it rust in peace

Am                        D
On a hill all dying alone, while the radio plays a crackling song

CHORUS

G             Em
I'll rust with you

Am            D
I'll rust with every one of you

G        Em
Nostalgic nights

Am         G
Have got me feelin' it's all

Em                  Am
Gone (gone, gone) to rust

         Em                  D              Am
It's all gone, (gone, gone) to rust



G
Swing skirt, fishnets and a broken dream

Em
Blue petrol flame makes the Jukebox scream

Am                                  D
The cool cats all there are crying, 'cause the records are all burnt and dying

G
Leopard high tops lift into the sky

Em
Fingerless gloved hands pulling me to fly

Am                            D
In the winter cold she kisses, and vanishes despite my wishes

CHORUS

G             Em
I'll rust with you

Am            D
I'll rust with every one of you

Nostalgic nights

Gone (gone, gone) to rust

         Em                  D              Am
It's all gone, (gone, gone) to rust


BRIDGE:
Em         G
Baby don't keep me waiting
           C
On this memory

Em                       G
The years and tears have gone and turned you
             C
into ash you see
         
         Em
It's all gone
   D
To rust


G
The malt shop's a derelict skelly'ton

Em
The disco's dead and the hop is done

Am                           D
the raves are flickering out, and your future flings follow en route

G
Let's drive this cadillac into the sea

Em
It's got transmission in my memory

Am                       D
Reminiscing in retrograde will fuel our pointless escapade

CHORUS

G             Em
I'll rust with you

I'll rust with every one of you

Gone to ru -  uh  -  uh  -  uh  -  ust

The lovely morning sun
D 
We've got a song in our heart and a dream in our heads
G                        A           D
Hearts in our heads, and dreams of a song 
D                     A              G          A          D
We'll Sing it all day long. C'mon now board that train with me

I've got a one-way ticket to destiny
D                    A
A one-way road to my future.
     Bm      A           D       G
And a two-way love with a special girl 
              G
she's gonna be right back
G               D
right back in my arms

D
That road is long, You can't Go wrong,
     G              A
With blue skies up above
D
We've got the sun in our face and the wind in our wheels
G                     A            D
Smile for the day and Sail to the stars

And an intersection that will seal my fate
           G
As a man so happy 
G            D
Happy to be free

D
As we roll along with This train ride song
   G                           A
You know we'll meet lots of friends
D
Like the cowboy who's a samurai
G                        A          D
Boy, what a combo, Holy cow what a guy
D                        A
The conductor plays the bass
         G              A
And the train it has a face

Bm                        D
Stormy days are around the bend.
Gb                    G
No wrenches, water, or outlets
Bm                          D
Roll across a sea of burning oil
Gb                                          G
As mechanical sea serpents swarm around the train

Bm                              D
Under a cloud that won't stop crying
Gb                                   G
Raining down on a mountain what spits fire
Bm                                 D
The sky and ground used to love so well

     Bm          A
So we play them a song,
      Bm          A
And we right their wrongs,
   G              D
And everybody gets along

One-way Ticket

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:

Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,

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

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.

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.
