There's a place where the music plays, I'll meet her there at the end of the day

When she moves her beauty falls in the garden the masters call
She knows where I hide in the cobwebs of my mind
She reads my eyes, she reads my eyes

Cobwebs

Verse One:

Am                          F
It's up in my heart when it skips a beat (skips a beat)
Am                           F
Can't feel no pavement right under my feet (under my feet)

Chorus:
C                    G
Up in my lonely room (Wah ooh)
                     F
When I'm dreaming of you (Wah oooo)
F                Am
Oh what can I do

I still need you, but
F             Am
I don't want you now

Verse Two:
Am                   F
When I'm down and my hands are tied (hands are tied)
Am                       F
I cannot reach a pen for me to draw the line (draw the line)
Am                    F
From this pain I just can't disguise
Am                      F
Its gonna hurt but I'll have to say goodbye

Intro     Dm
Dm
Outside the factory gate where I will sit and wait
F
For you to turn around and show me there's a way
           Gm									     Dm
I am a stranger to the light enchanted by the walkers of the night

Dm
I stepped into the dark with all the broken hearts
        F
I've searched the empty streets distant and apart
		Gm						                Dm
I am a stranger in this life haunted by yesterday's desires
	Gm                   Am	           A#m             Cm
And when we meet again you'll know I am to blame
A#m			   Cm		       F        Gm   A  Dm
When you see me standing in the rain

Dm
They say they can see what I'm supposed to be
F
But what is right for them don't mean it's right for me
	    Gm					Dm
I am a stranger to the light enchanted by the walkers of the night

Dm
And so the story goes as I watch from my window
   F
Across the water front but they will never know
	     Gm						                Dm
I am a stranger in the life haunted by yesterday's desires

In The Rain

the same chords all over the song as i hear it.nice and easy 

D        F#     Bm       D
Here's a tale of my true love 
G       Gm           D
Fair and free was she 
D        F#     Bm       D
Wasn't I just like tonight 
G       Gm           D
she stole my liberty 

Ooooh 

Like a flower in the spring 
Words don't mean a thing 
Like the ocean greets the sand 
Beyond my own command 

Ooooh 

But then she warned me 
She'd have to go 
And I'd be left to show 
Accept the feeling and then I'll know 
I'll always love her so

Bm  Em, D  F#7 (x2)

Verse 1:

Bm          Em
 I remember when,
D              F#7
 I saw the sea freeze.
Bm           Em
 But it said nothing,
D                        F#7
 About the birds and the bees.

          Bm
They were swarming,
          Em
Around my head;
D                    F#7
 You'd be better off dead.

Bridge 1:

      G                     F#m
But I ain't going down like that.
  G                     F#m
I ain't going down like that.

Chorus 1:

         Bm
'Cos I'm better than him,
      Em
And I know where I've been,
    D                     F#7
You know where I'm coming from.
        Bm
And I'm hired to sin,
    Em
But don't we all sin?
D
 That is the truth,
        F#7
And the truth is grim.

         Bm
It ain't easy in jail,
    Em
The stories for sale,
     D
Your father has died,
           F
While he's gripped for bail.
   Bm
He points to the west,
       Em
And he leaves out the rest,
    D
And wants you to be,
    F#7
His special guest.

Interlude:

G     F#m
 Oo...oh,
G     F#m
 Oo...oh.

Verse 2:

Bm          Em
 I remember when,
D                 F#7
 I saw the leaves fall.
Bm            Em
 I was in the woods,
        G
And the gown you,
                     F#7
Wouldn't wear to the Ball.
Bm                Em
 Into the ditch I fly;
D                 F#7
 Wanted dead or a-live.

Bridge 2:

      G                     F#m
But I ain't going down like that.
      G                     F#m
No, I ain't going down like that.

'Cos I'm better than him,

You know where I'm coming from.
        Bm
And I'm hired to sin,
    Em
But don't we all sin?
D
 That is the truth,
        F#7
And the truth is grim.

         Bm
It ain't easy in jail,
    Em
The stories for sale,

Your father has died,

G       C                 G               
I had a girl her name was Leizah 

G       C          G
She had only one desire 

Am          C                D
To walk the cobbled streets alone 

G       D  C         G
Heading anywhere but home 


Verse2:

G            C               G
With Crowley as her close companion 

G      C                 G
His diaries went hand in hand with 

Am      C                D
All the men that she has known

G                D          C           G 
She leaves their silver but keeps their gold 


Verse3:

G           C                G
So lawyers, doctors please beware 

G       C              G
Of that girl with wavy hair

Am           C               D 
For she will cut you down to size 

G          D       C         G
Reveal the truth behind your disguise 


Chorus:

G        C
Leizah

            G       C  
Just passed by her 

           G        C
Now you're standing 

      G       C
Empty handed 

G       C
Leizah 

         G         C
Can't despise her 

                   G       C
She'll change your look

                G        C 
She'll have you hooked 


Verse4:

G        C                 G
The city sleeps as she's arriving

G               C               G 
Tongue tied and twisted was her timing

Am           C                 D 
Her eyes are glazed in deep despair

G          D    C                G 
Those crocodile tears they don't care 


Verse5:

G              C                  G
Dont turn your back cos she'll be gone

G       C              G 
Chasing shadows in the sun

Am   C              D 
All along the dusty road

G         D         C           G 
Where she goes well we'll never know 


Verse6:

G        C               G
And everytime I think of Leizah

G       C                G
I break down and I start crying

Am       C           D 
Although she tore me apart

G               D              C          G 
There's still a place for that girl in my heart

Now you're standing

Leizah 

         G         C
Can't despise her 

                   G       C

Verse 1:

I'm going back to the time when we owned this town

Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds

We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too

Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away

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

time signature goes 3/4 for 2 bars then 2/4 for 1 bar and then
repeats.

get a friend to strum the chords: C, G, Em, D in the background
