# Verse 1: 
          F#m7       B7                Em
There?s a moon over  Bourbon Street    tonight
      F#m7            B7               Em
I see faces as they   pass beneath the pale lamp light
        C             B7          Em
I've no choice but to follow that call
    C#dim              F#7             C            B7
the bright lights, the people, and the moon and     all
F#m7         B7            Em
I pray every day to be     strong
         F#m7        B7             Em
for I    know what I do must be     wrong

# Chorus: 
          C            B              Em
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet
                C         B7      Em	
while there's a moon over Bourbon Street

Moon Over Bourbon Street

Am
I dream of rain
G
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
F
I wake in vain
E
I dream of love as time runs through my hand


Am
I dream of fire
G
Those dreams that tie two hearts that will never die
F
And near the flames
E
The shadows play in the shape of the mans desire

VERSE:

 Bb                 Gm     Eb
  Early one morning,  with time to kill
Cm   Gm                   Bb   Eb
  I  borrowed Jeb's rifle, and sat on the hill
    Bb               Gm  Eb
  I saw a lone rider,   Crossing the plain
Cm  Gm                 Bb   Eb
  I drew a bead on him,  To practice my aim
Cm                   Cm/Bb  F
  My brother's rifle,  Went off in my hand
F/G  F           F/A  F    Bb
  A shot rang out        across the land
      Eb                    Cm   Gm
  The horse he kept running, the rider was dead 
Eb  Bb           Gm  Eb           Cm
  I hung my head,  I hung my head


VERSE:


 Bb                 Gm   Eb                   Cm
  I set off running,  to wake from the dream
 Gm                   Bb     Eb
  My brother's rifle,  went into the stream
 Bb                 Gm  Eb
  I kept on running, in-to the salt lands
Cm    Gm                         Bb  Eb
  And that's where they found me, my head in my hands
Cm                        Cm/Bb F               F/G
  The sheriff he asked me,      Why had I run
  F                 F/A  F      Bb
  Then it came to me,      just what I had done
      Eb                 Cm   Gm
  And all for no reason, just one piece of lead
 Eb Bb           Gm  Eb
  I hung my head, I hung my head

BREAK: Bb Gm  Eb  Cm   Gm  Bb  Eb 2x


VERSE:

  Here in the courthouse, the whole town is there
  I see the judge, High up in his chair
 "Explain to the courtroom, what went through your mind
  And we'll ask the jury, what verdict they find"
  I said "I felt the power, of death over life
  I orphaned his children, I widowed his wife
  I beg their forgiveness, I wish I was dead"
Eb Bb           Gm  Eb
  I hung my head, I hung my head
Cm  Bb           Gm  Eb           Cm
  I hung my head, I hung my head

 Bb                 Gm     Eb
  Early one morning,  with time to kill
Cm  Gm              Bb Eb
  I see the gallows,   up on the hill
      Bb                 Gm   Eb
  And out in the distance,  a trick of the brain
Cm  Gm               Bb Eb
  I see a lone rider,   crossing the plain
Cm                      Cm/Bb F                  F/G
  He's come to fetch me,   to see what they done
  F                   F/A  F     Bb
  We'll ride together, '     Til kingdom come

  I pray for God's mercy,  for soon I'll be dead

[Intro]
G       Em      D      C  [x4]


	       G     Em  D
I looked out across
    C       G    Em  D  C
The river today,
     	  G                    Em           D
I saw a city in the fog and an old church tower
	  C              G  Em  D  C
Where the seagulls play,
           G        Em      D            C
I saw the sad shire horses walking home
	G            Em  D  C
In the sodium light
          G
I saw two priests on the ferry
 Em       D         C              G    Em  D
October geese on a cold winter's night


        Em         D F#  Em
And all this time,
    A            C
The river flowed
    D             G    Em  G  D
Endlessly to the sea.


G  Em  D  C

Two priests came round our house tonight
One young, one old, to offer prayers for the dying
To serve the final rite,
One to learn, one to teach,
Which way the cold wind blows
Fussing and flapping in priestly black
Like a murder of crows


Chorus:
        Em         D  F#  Em
And all this time,
    A            C
The river flowed
    D             G    Em  G  D
Endlessly to the sea.
If I had my way I'd take a boat from the river
And I'd bury the old man,
I'd bury him at sea


Blessed are the poor, for they shall inherit the earth
Better to be poor than a fat man in the eye of the needle
And as these words were spoken I swear I hear
The old man laughing,
What good is a used up world, and how could it be
Worth having


[Chorus:]
And all this time the river flowed
Endlessly like a silent tear
And all this time the river flowed
Father, if Jesus exist,
Then how come he never lived here.


[!Keychange to A!]

A  F#m  E  D

The teachers told us, the Romans built this place
They built a wall and a temple, an edge of the empire
Garrison town,
They lived and they died, they prayed to their gods
But the stone gods did not make a sound
And their empire crumbled, 'til all that was left
Were the stones the workmen found


Chorus:
        F#m        E  F#m
And all this time
    B             D
The river flowed
  E              A    F#m  A
Endlessly to the sea
    F#m          E  F#m
If I had my way
           B                D
I'd take a boat from the river
       E
Men go crazy in congregations

But they only get better
One by one


A  F#m  E  D  [repeat adlib]


One by one
One by one by one
One by one

I looked out across...  [Chorus]

Sting - Fragile - Uke

[Baug (B Augmented) is fingered 4-3-3-2, or you can play Am7]

Em              Em7                 Am7 
  If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one 
Bm7                         Em 
Drying in the colour of the evening sun 
           Em7                Am7 
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away 
    Bm7                                  Em 
But something in our minds will always stay 
   Em7 
Perhaps this final act was meant 
   Am7 
To clinch a lifetime's argument 
     Bm7 
That nothing comes from violence 
    Em 
and nothing ever could 
    Em7                             Am7 
For all those born beneath an angry star 
     Bm7                            Em 
Lest we forget how fragile we are 
Am           Bm7 
On and on the rain will fall 
     Em 
Like tears from a star 
Like tears from a star 
Am          Baug 
On and on the rain will say 
    Em 
How fragile we are 
How fragile we are 

Em7  Am7  Bm7  Em 

Am          Baug
On and on the rain will fall 
     Em 
Like tears from a star 
Like tears from a star 
Am          Baug
On and on the rain will say 
    Em 
How fragile we are 
How fragile we are 
How fragile we are 
How fragile we are



[Special Thanks to voicesblur for the following addition
17-03-2010 - " think Am7 may work better than the Bm7 Am Am7
On and on the rain will fall and Am Am7 On and on the rain 
will say try it out and enjoy :)"]

[N.B 'I can add that I've also tried playing with the Bm7
 on the 'On and on the rain will say' part - playing a Baug 
 (B augmented) chord - which is 4-3-3-2 - It sounds just 
 lovely! so I've added the change above.   Barn1uk 17-03-2010]

See Mercury falling

G            C9      D         C9 G
Deep in the meadow, under the willow
          C9        D          C9 G
A bed of grass, a soft green pillow
               C9         D         G
Lay down your head, and close your eyes
               C9        D         G
And when they open, the sun will rise

D                    C9         G
Here it's safe, and here it's warm
D                           C9          G
Here the daisies guard you from every harm
                       C9
Here your dreams are sweet
      D                  G
and tomorrow brings them true
              C9        D       G
Here is the place where I love you.

G            C9      D         G
Deep in the meadow, hidden far away
           C9         D       C9 G
A cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray
             C9       D                 G
Forget your woes and let your troubles lay
                     C9                D   G
And when again it's morning, they'll wash away

D                    C9         G
Here it's safe, and here it's warm
D                           C9          G
Here the daisies guard you from every harm

Here your dreams are sweet

and tomorrow brings them true
              C9        D       G
Here is the place where I love you.

Rue's Lullaby - Hunger Games

Sting - Shape Of My Heart - Uke

F#m                       Bm
 He deals the cards as a meditation
F#m                           Bm
 And those he plays never suspect
D/F#                    A        C#/F
 He doesnt play for the money he wins
D/F#                       F#m
 He doesnt play for the respect
F#m                               Bm
 He deals the cards to find the answer
F#m                          Bm
 The sacred geometry of chance
D/F#               A        C#/F
 The hidden law of probable outcome
D/F#                 F#m
 The numbers lead a dance

F#m                              Bm
 I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
F#m                                    Bm
 I know that the clubs are weapons of war
D/F#                       A              C#/F
 I know that diamonds mean money for this art
D/F#                            F#m
 But thats not the shape of my heart

He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But thats not the shape of my heart
Thats not the shape, the shape of my heart

And if I told you that I loved you
Youd maybe think theres something wrong
Im not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who smile are lost

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But thats not the shape of my heart
Thats not the shape of my heart

C         G                     Am         F
Well, someone told me yesterday
C      G                               Am    F
that when you throw your love away
C   G                   Am            F
you act as if you just don´t care,
C   G                          Am           F
you look as if you´re going somewhere.

C   G                        Am         F
But I just can´t convince myself,
C G                           Am    F
I couldn´t live with no one else
C   G                Am           F
and I can only play that part
C   G                         Am        F
and sit and nurse my broken heart. So lonely!

Now noone´s knocked upon my door
C        G                          Am    F
for a thousand years or maybe more.
C   G                   Am          F
All made up and nowhere to go,

The Night The Pugilist Learned How To Dance

Intro:  Em F#

Verse 1:
   Bm  A         G                          
If I caught the world in a bottle
      Em    F#        Bm     A         G
And everything will still beneath the moon
             Em                     F#
With such a love would it shine for me
   Bm     A           G           
If I was smart as an arrow studdling
    Em     F#       Bm     A          G
And understood the rings around the moon
     Em                         F#
Why could it all matter if you love me


Chorus:
             Em             A                    D
Here in your arms with the world is impossibly still
         Bm                  G
With a million of dreams to fulfil
                                   F#
And a matter of moments until the dancing ends
              Em         A                     D
Here in your arms and everything seems to be clear
         Bm                    G
Not a salacoius thing What I feel
                                         F#
Except when this moment comes near the dancing´s end
   Bm  A         G
If I caught the world in an hour-glass
 Em     F#      Bm          A    G
Sattled up the moon So we could ride
 Em        Bm          G    Em
Until the stars could dim, until…


Verse 2:
Bm   A   G
One day you meet a stranger
    Em       F#      Bm     A      G
And all the noises silence in the room
     Em                              F#
You feel that you´re close to some mystery
        Bm   A          G
In the moonlight and everything shudders
     Em     F#          Bm      A        G
You feel as if you´ve known it all your life
     Em                        F#
The worse, oldest lesson in history


Chorus:
             Em             A                    D
Here in your arms with the world is impossibly still
         Bm                  G
With a million of dreams to fulfil
                                   F#
And a matter of moments until the dancing ends
              Em         A                     D
Here in your arms and everything seems to be clear
         Bm                   G
Not a salacoius thing do I feel
                                         F#
Except when this moment comes near the dancing´s end
   Bm  A         G
If I caught the world in an hour-glass
 Em     F#      Bm          A    G
Sattled up the moon then we would ride
 Em        Bm          G    Em        F#        Bm           G     Em
Until the stars could dim, until the time, the time stands still, until…

Sting - When We Dance - Uke

[Intro:] B7  E

       E
If he loved you

Like I love you
        C#m
I would walk away in shame
          E
I'd move town I'd change my name

         E
When he watches you

When he counts to buy your soul
        C#m
On your hand his golden rings
        E
Like he owns a bird that sings


         B      E6          A                  E
When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings
E
The priest has said my soul's salvation 

Is in the balance of the angels
C#m
And underneath the wheels of passion
E
I keep the faith in my fashion
         B      E6          A                  F#m    D
When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings

[repeat 2x with:]
"I would love you more than life, If you'll only be my wife
I'm gonna love you night and day, I'm gonna try in every way
I'm gonna find a place to live, give you all I've got to give

Mountains of endless falling,

For all my days remaining,

   What would be true?

Em           C       D
Sometimes I see your face,
Em                 C         D
The stars seem to lose their place
Em          C       D
Why must I think of you?

Why must I?

G             Em      C
Why would you want me to?

What would be true?

Why should I?

Why should I cry?...

Desnudar el sin razón

gira loca girasol . . .

déjame como estoy,

ya te amé y allí morí,

quédate quédate oh!

déjame explicarte,

solo extiéndete una vez más . . .

extiéndete una vez más . . .

eres mi esperanza,

solo una grieta en mi existir . . .

no somos solo cuerpos,

y como un fondo un cielo . . .

no es solo un burro,

que es un ángel de fe

tal vez me sentirás

tal vez me sentirás

Espero que puedan sacar esta genial cancion del mejor
compositor del rock de Argentina (a mi parecer).

Extiéndete una vez más

DOm LA# DOm LA#
Saber que es lo que te pasa, sabes a veces lleva tiempo

DOm LA#
Es que el amor es una ciencia exacta,

DOm LA#
Y el dolor suele ser un misterio

SOL# DOm
Salir, parece buena idea,

SOL# DOm
Escapar, esa no es la manera de seguir

SOL# DOm
No esperar que el tiempo arregle todo,

SI LA#
Cuestión de encontrar el modo de reír

DOm FA MIb LA# DOm
Y si no estas bien, no te desarmes

FA MIb LA# DOm
Ponte de pie y andar y andar

FA MIb LA# DOm
No los escuchés pueden marearte

Solo saben hablar, y hablar y hablar

Andar

C
Working the village shop
E
Putting a poster up
Am
Dreaming of anything
C              Am               Em               Dm
Dreaming of the time when you're free from all the trouble you're in

C
In the mud, on your knees
E
Trying hard not to please
Am
Anyone, all the time
C              Am
Being a rebel's fine
           Em            C
But you go all the way to being brutal

Chorus:
G
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
F
On the first bus out of town
On the first bus out of town

Let's see your kit for games
All the girls look the same
You are challenging style for running miles
You're running miles in some boy's jumper

Boo to the business world!
You know a girl who's tax free on her back and making
Plenty cash
While you are working for the joy of giving

Chorus:
You will have a boy tonight
You will have a boy tonight
And you hope that she will see
And you hope that she will see

You are in two minds
Tossing a coin to decide whether you should tell your mum
About a dose of thrush you got while licking railings

But you read in a book
That you got free from Boots
There are lotions, there are potions
You can take to hide your shame from all those prying eyes

Lazy Jane, all the time
Painting lines
You sleeping at bus stops
Wondering how you got your name
And what you're going to do about it.
