Kingdom Come

[Verse]

Em
I had me a girl
                    B
Who taught me those things
                   Em
A young man should know

Em               
Down, down on my knees
                    B
I’d beg and I’d plead
                      Em
To learn a little bit more


[PreChorus]

A                         Em
Oh that woman taught me to pray
A                  B
I saw Heaven every day

Lord, she could,


[Chorus]

Em
Ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
                    
ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
B                       
ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh 
Em
ooooooooh


[Verse]

Em
I had me a boy
                B
who buttoned me down
           Em
Drew me a line

Em
He, he washed me as clean
                  B
As a sinner could be
              Em
Showed me the light

A                           Em
Oh that boy, he taught me to pray
A                              B
But for all of his spit-shinin’ ways

Lord, he could, 


[Chorus]

Em
Ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
                    
ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
B                       
ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh 
Em
ooooooooh

G  A     B 

Em        B Em x2

(in the original song this part is (almost) a capella, but I'm adding chords anyway for convenience)

Em
I had me a girl
                B
Like cigarette smoke
                 Em
She came and she went
Em
I slipped through his hands
                B
To my back door man
Em
Under his chin

A                         Em
Oh that woman taught me to pray
A                        B
But for all her wandering ways

She could,


[Chorus] x2

Em
Ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
                    
ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh

ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin 
Am                                  Em
Dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in 
Am                               Em
Lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove

Am                                 Em
Oh let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone 
Am                          Em
Let me feel you moving like they do in Babylon 
Am                         Em
Show me slowly what I only know the limits of 
B7                     Em
Dance me to the end of love 
B7                     Em
Dance me to the end of love 

Am                           Em
Dance me to the wedding now, dance me on and on 
Am                         Em
Dance me very tenderly and dance me very long 
Am                                       Em
We're both of us beneath our love, we're both of us above 
B7                   Em
Dance me to the end of love 
B7                   Em
Dance me to the end of love

that I wrote twenty years ago
         Bm               D
Yellow paper and a faded picture

Or that unmarked hundred grand?
Ooh, underneath the water

Still can't lay me down to sleep

Where I'm seeing you there

With your hands in the air
C          E7         F
Waiting to finally be caught

Keep you apart

Deep in my heart

Am           F

The bitterness of one who's left alone

You've been lonely

You've been lonely, too long

Time stands still while there's still wine around
The one who's    always and never alone

Or did the four winds blow him away?

Ooh, does she even know
                                                        
She's the girl with the red balloon?

             F 
Baby really hurt me
                Am 
crying in the taxi
                Dm
He dont wanna know me
                         Am                     A#     Dm
says you make the big mistake of dancing in my store 
Gm                  C
   Says it was poison
                 F
So I guess I go home 
          Am                     Dm
into the arms of the girl that I love
                Am 
the only love I havent screwed up
A#                  Dm
   She's so hard to please
             Gm      C  
but shes a forest fire
        F               
I do my best to meet her demands
Am
play it romance
         Dm
we slow dance in the living room
    Am                      A#
but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability
          Dm         Gm    C
You're a little much for me"
               F              Am 
So they pull back make other plans
       Dm 
I understand
     Am     A# 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave
       C            Dm            F    A#

[Verse 2]
            F 
The truth is, I am toy
                Dm
that people enjoy
                Am               A#
till all of the tricks dont work anymore
Dm              Gm       C
And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am
every perfect summer's eating me alive
            A#    Dm
unitl youre gone
Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability
          Dm         Gm    C
You're a little much for me"
               F              Am 
So they pull back make other plans
       Dm 
I understand
     Am     A# 
I'm a liability
        Dm         Gm

I'm a little much for eh oh-na-na-na everyone

[Outro]
             Dm           F           A#
They're gonna watch me disappear into the sun
                 Dm        F           A#
You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun

Liability

A                                     E 
Roll into your town and I'm walking around

                                                     D
And you follow me around, and you're asking for the time

Your asking what I found 
                         A
think I'm gonna rob you blind

maybe it's the tattoo on my arm
        E
that I drew while I was bored waiting tables in new york
Fm                                            D
 a  heart and two flowers intertwined with a vine

Why Cry

[Verse 1]
 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D

Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long


[Pre-Chorus]

But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
We don't even know why, no no
Bm                          A
We don't even know why, no no no


[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time
N.C.
No no no no
D
We like it in the daytime
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time


[Verse 2]
G                        D
Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change

We like it in the daytime (we don't even know)

No no no no

(We don't even know, know, know, know, know)




[Bridge]
G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine
G                         D
Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)
Bm                            A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright

(Think that we'd be alright)

G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine

(Oh)Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why

('Cause we work so well and we don't even know why, why)
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                  A

Crash Years

Intro  D     Bm7   G     A     x2


Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
        Bm7                 F#              G                    A
And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
        Bm7 A   G                              Gm
Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

Verse 2
          D                           Bm7
Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase
     G               A
Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith


Chorus
          D                        D7
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
         Bm7 A   G                               Gm

You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith
 
          D                        D7
Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7

As She's Walking Away

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
