A Sort of Homecoming
--------------------
Intro G6 D2 G6 D2 G6 D2 G6 D2
And you know it's time to go
G6 D2
through the sleet and driving snow
G6 D2
across the fields of mourning to a
G6
light's in the distance
D2 G6 D4 D2
And you hunger for the time
time to heal, 'Desire', time
and your earth moves beneath
your own dream landscape
G G2 G G2 D2 D4 D Gii
Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run________
G G2 G G2
I'll be there, I'll be there
D2 D4 D Gii
tonight, a high road, a high road out of here
the city walls are all come down
the dust a smoke screen all around to see
faces ploughed like fields that once
gave no resistance
And we live by the side of the road
on the side of a hill as the valleys explode
dislocated, suffocated
the land grows weary of it's own
G6 D2 G6 D2
O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I hmm hmm
G6 D2 G6 D2
O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I
G G2 G G2 D2 D4 D G
Oh, ho, ho on borderland we run, and still we run, we run and don't look back
G G2 G G2 D2 D4 D D4
I'll be there, I'll be there tonight tonight tonight
C7
I'll be there tonight, I believe. I'll be there so high (land),
D D2 G6 D2
I'll be there tonight, tonight____________
G6 D2 G6 D2
O come away, I sing I say, um ha, o come away oh say.
G6 D2 G6 D2
G6
The wind will crack in wintertime
D2 G6
this bomb-blast lightning waltz
D2 G6 D2 G6 D4 D G G2 G G2
no spoken words, just a scream . . . yeah.... oh........ oh.....
D2 D4 D Gii
tonight we'll build a bridge across the sea and land
G G2
see the sky burning rain
G G2 D2 D4 D Gii G6 D2 G6 D4 D G6 D2 G6 D4 D
she will die and live again tonight_______
And you heart beats so slow
through the rain and fallen snow
across the fields of morning
to a light that's in the distance
Oh don't sorrow, no don't weep
for tonight, at last
I am coming home
I am coming home

Pride (In the name of love) [Capo on 1st fret]
Intro chords A A G Em
A D
One man come in the name of love,
G Em
One man come and go.
A D
One come here to justify,
G Em
One man to overthrow,
A D
In the name of love,
G Em
What more in the name of love.
One man crawled on a barbed wire fence,
One man he resist.
One man washed on an empty beach.
One man betrayed with a kiss.
In the name of love,
What more in the name of love.
Early morning, April 4.
A shot rings out in the Memphis sky.
Free at last, they took your life,
But they could not take your pride.
In the name of love,
What more in the name of love.

Barbed wire fence cut me down,
I'd like to be around.
In a spiral staircase
Am G
to the higher ground.
Am G
And I like a firewall and explode.
F C
Roman candlelightning lights up the sky.
In cracked streets, trample underfoot
Sidestep, sidewalk.
I see you stare into space.
Have I gotten closer now,
behind the face.
Tell me, will you dance with me,
and turn me around tonight.
Up though the spiral staircase to the higher ground.
See slide show, see side town,
coca-cola, football, radio radio radio . . .

If I could, you know I would.
If I could, I would let it go.
This desparation.

"Two Hearts Beat As One"
Intro: C#m, (E), F# C#m, (E), F#
C#m F#
I don't know, I don't know which side I'm on
C#m F#
I don't know my right from left, or my right from wrong
C#m F#
Say I'm a fool, say I'm not for you
C#m F#
But if I'm a fool for you, that's something
E F#
Two hearts, beat as one
E F#
Two hearts beat as one
-OR-
G#m F#
Two hearts, beat as one
G#m F#
Two hearts, beat as one
I can't tell if G#m or E sounds better. It's probably a weird chord.
I also can't tell if the E should be played in the intro, (or
throughout the song for that matter). The rest of the song repeats in
almost the same manner.
*************************************************************************
"40"
This song is mainly alternating two chords, G to C or A to D. (In the
song, it's actually G# to C#, just like All I Want Is You) If you use
G to C, tune up a half tone, A to D, tune down a half tone.
Intro G, C, G, C
G C
I waited patiently for the Lord, he inclined and heard my cry
G C
He brought me right out of the pit, out of my reglade
G C G C G
I will sing, sing a new song, I will sing, sing a new song
G G C
How long to sing this song? ...
(the song repeats in the same manner)

:/ But I still haven't found what I'm looking for /:
I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire this burning desire
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night, I was cold as a stone
:/ But I still haven't found what I'm looking for /:
I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colours will bleed into one
But yes I'm still running.
You broke the bonds, you loosened the chains
You carried the cross
And my shame, and my shame
You know I believed it
:/ But I still haven't found what I'm looking for /:

See the stone set in your eyes,
G D
See the thorn twist in your side
A Bm G
I wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait....without you
With or without you
With or without you
Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you
With or without you, with or without you
I can't live with or without you
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing left to win
And nothing else to lose
With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you

In the howling wind comes a stinging rain
See it driving nails into souls on the tree of pain
From the firefly, a red orange glow
See the face of fear running scared in the valley below
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue
In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum
Jacob wrestled the angel and the angel was overcome
Plant a demon seed, you raise a flower of fire
See them burning crosses, see the flames, higher and higher
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue
Suit and tie comes up to me
His face red
Like a rose on a thorn bush
Like all the colours of a royal flush
Through the alleys of a quiet city street
Up the staircase to the first floor
We turn the key and slowly unlock the door
A man breathes deep into saxophone
Through the walls we hear the city graon
Outside is America
Outside is America

Running to Stand Still
------- -- ----- -----
D G
And so she woke up, woke up from where she was lying still, said I
D G
got to do something about where we're going.
D G
Step on a steam train, step out of the driving rain, maybe
D G
run from the darkness in the night, singing
A C G
ah, ah la la la de day
A C G D G
ah la la la de day, ah la la de day
Sweet the sin, but bitter the taste in my mouth.
I see seven towers, but I only see one way out.
You got to cry without weeping, talk without speaking,
scream without raising your voice, you know I took the poison,
from the poison stream, then I floated out of here, singing
ah, ah la la la de day
ah la la la de day, ah la la de day
G D G
oooh, oooh, oooh
D
She runs through the street with her eyes painted red
G
under black belly of cloud in the rain
D
in through the doorway she brings me
G D
white gold and pearls, stolen from the sea, she is raging
G
she is raging, and the storm blows up in her eyes, she will
A C G
suffer the needle chill
A C G D G D G D
she's running to stand still

G C
From Father to Son the blood runs thin
G C
Our faces frozen (still) against the wind
G C
The seam is split, the coal face cracked
G C
The lines are long and there's no going back
G C
Through hands of steel and a heart of stone
G C D
Our labour day has come and gone
A
And you leave us holding on
F
In Red Hill Town, as the lights go down
G D
I'm hanging on
F C
You're all that's left to hold on to
G D
I'm holding on
F C
You're all that's left to hold on to
The glass is cut, the bottle runs dry
Our love runs cold in the caverns of the night
We're wounded by fear, injured in doubt
I can lose myself, you I can't live without
Because you keep me holding on
In Red Hill Town, as the lights go down
I'm hanging on ...
And we scorch the earth, set fire to the sky
Stoop so low to reach so hihgh
A link is lost, the chain undone
Now we wait all day for the night to come
And it comes
And it comes
Like a hunter (child)
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
G D
We see love slowly stripped away
F C
Our love, has seen a better day
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm holding on
You're all that's left to hold on to
See the lights go down on Red Hill Town
See lights go down on Red Hill Town

D Am
Desert Sky
D Am
Dream beneath a desert sky
D Am
The rivers run but soon run dry
D Am
We need new dreams tonight
Desert rose
Dreamed I saw a desert rose
Dress torn in ribbons and in bows
Like a siren she calls to me
Em G D Em G D
Sleep comes like a drug... In God's Country
Em G D Em G D
Sad eyes crooked crosses... In God's Country
Set me alight
We'll punch a hole right through the night
Everyday the dreamers die
To see what's on the other side
She is Liberty
And she comes to rescue me
Hope faith, her vanity
The greatest gift is gold
Sleep comes like a drug... In God's Country
Sad eyes crooked crosses... In God's Country
Naked flame
She stands with a naked flame
I stand with the sons of Cain
Burned by the fire of love
D Am
Burned by the fire of love
D Am

Trip Through Your Wires
---- ------- ---- -----
G F9 C9
In the distance
G F9 C9
She saw me coming round
G F9 C9
I was calling out
G F9 C9
I was calling out
Still shaking, still in pain
You put me back together again
I was cold and you clothed me honey
I was down and you lifted me honey
Angel, angel or devil
I was thirsty
And you wet my lips
C G
You, I'm waiting for you
Bb F/C
You, you set my desire
C G
I trip through your wires
I was broken, bent out of shape
I was naked in the clothes you made
My lips were dry, throat like rust
You gave me shelter
From the heat and the dust
There's no more water in the well
No more water in the well
Angel, angel or devil
I was thirsty
And you wet my lips
You, I'm waiting for you
You, you set my desire
I trip through your wires
Thunder, thunder on the mountain
There's a raincloud in the desert sky
In the distance, she saw me coming round
I was calling out, I was calling out
******************************************************************************
One Tree Hill
--- ---- ----
C F
We turn away to face the cold, enduring chill
Bb F C
As the day begs the night for mercy
Your sun's so bright it leaves no shadows, only scars
Carved into stone on the face of earth
The moon is up and over One Tree Hill
We see the sun go down in your eyes
Bb F C
You ran like river to the sea
Bb F C
Like a river to the sea
And in our world a heart of darkness, a firezone
Where poets speak their hearts, then bleed for it
Jara sang, his song a weapon, in the hands of love
You know his blood still cries from the ground
It runs like a river to the sea, like a river to the sea
I don't believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts
While bullets rape the night of the merciful
I'll see you again when the stars fall from the sky
And the moon has turned red over One Tree Hill
We run like a river to the sea, like a river to the sea
******************************************************************************
Exit

Em
You know he got the cure...but then he went astray,
C G
He used to stay awake to drive the dreams he had away
Em C G
He wanted to believe in the hands of love...
His head it felt heavy as he cut across the land
A dog started crying like a broken hearted man
At the howling wind... the howling wind
He went deeper into black, deeper into white...
he could see the stars shine like nails in the night
He felt the healing, healing, healing, healing hands of love
Like the stars shiny, shiny... from above.
He put his hands in the pocket, his finger on the steel
The pistol weighed heavy, his heart he could feel
Was beating, beating, beating, beating oh my love
Oh my love, oh my love, oh my love.
(He saw the hands that build could also pull down....
The hands of love)

Mothers of the Disappeared (tab)
--------------------------
The main guitar is acoustic, and the 2nd guitar is a distorted electric.
How to decipher my notation: top line is guitar type (if it is necessary
to point out), 2nd line is lyrics, 3rd line is chord names, 4th is treble
rhythm. Then the TAB, and under that is bass rhythm. You'll figure it out.
Notation:
s - sixteenth note e - eighth note q - quarter note
h - half note w - whole note ^ - ties two note lengths together
. - play note for one and a half times the value before it
(just like a dot in standard notation)
NOTE LENGTHS IN CAPITAL LETTERS MEAN REST FOR THAT VALUE OF TIME!
/ - slide up \ - slide down h - hammer-on p - pull-off
(Acoustic guitar - let ring)

Note: this is a very reduced version. If you want
to play anything closer to the original, look out
for the chords on the first line of the tab.
A
Midnight, our sons and daughters
Were cut down and taken from us
E D/F#
Hear their heartbeat...
A
We hear their heartbeat
In the wind, we hear their laughter
In the rain we see their tears
Hear their heartbeat..., we hear their heartbeat
Night hangs like a prisoner
Stretched over black and blue
Hear their heartbeat..., we hear their heartbeat
In the trees our sons stand naked
Through the walls our daughters cry
See their tears in the rainfall

Will it make it easier on you

Now you got someone to blame
You say

One love, one life

When it's one need in the night

It's one love we get to share it
Fmaj7 C
It leaves you baby if you don't care for it
Am-Dadd2-Fmaj7-G6+
Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's too late tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One
[Solo]
Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head?
Did I ask too much, more than a lot
You gave me nothing, now it's all I got
We're one, but we're not the same
We hurt each other then we do it again
You say
C Am
Love is a temple, Love a higher law
C Am
Love is a temple, Love the higher law
C G
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl
Fmaj7
And I can't be holding on to what you got
C
When all you got is hurt
One love, one blood
One life, you got to do what you should
One life with each other
Sisters, brothers
One life, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One. One.

We crossed the line
A Asus4
Who pushed who over?
A Asus4
It doesn't matter to you
A Asus4
it matters to me
A Asus4
We're cut adrift
A Asus4
But still floating
A Asus4
I'm only hanging on
A E A
To watch you go down...my love
I disappeared in you
You disappeared from me
I gave you everything you ever wanted
It wasn't what you wanted
The men who love you, you hate the most
They pass through you like a ghost
They look for you but your spirit is in the air
Baby...you're nowhere
A-D-E-A
Aaaaaaah,
A D E A
You say in love there are no rules
A D E A E
Oh......love Sweetheart
A
You're so cruel
Desperation is a tender trap
It gets you every time
You put your lips to her lips
To stop the lie
Her skin is pale like God's only dove
Screams like an angel for your love
Then she makes you watch her from above
And you need her like a drug
You say in love there are no rules
Oh......love Sweetheart, you're so cruel
F#m
She wears my love
D
Like a see-through dress
A
Her lips say one thing
E
Her movements something else
C#m
Oh love, like a screaming flower
A
Love, dying every hour
And you don't know if it's fear or desire
Danger the drug that takes you higher?
Head of heaven, fingers in the mire
Her heart is racing... you can't keep up
The night is bleeding like a cut
Between the horses of love and lust
We are trampled underfoot
You say in love there are no rules
Oh......love Sweetheart
You're so cruel
To stay with you I'd be a fool
D C#m A E
oh....hah hah Sweetheart
A
You're so cruel.

It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
It's no secret that our world is in darkness tonight
A D
They say the sun is sometimes eclipsed by a moon
E
You know I don't see you when she walks in the room
It's no secret that a friend is someone who lets you help
It's no secret that a liar won't believe anyone else
They say a secret is something you tell one other person
So I'm telling you, child
C#m E
(Love, we shine like a A man will beg
A
Burning star A man will crawl
We're fallin' from On the sheer face of love
C#m E A Like a fly from the wall
The sky... tonight) It's no secret at all
It's no secret that a conscience can sometimes be a pest
It's no secret that ambition bites the nails of success
Every artist is a cannibal Every poet is a thief
All kill their inspiration and sing about their grief
Solo: B E-A-D-E-B-C#m-E-A
(Love, we shine like a A man will rise
Burning star A man will fall
We're falling from From the sheer face of love
The sky... tonight) Like a fly from the wall
It's no secret at all
E
It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
The universe exploding 'cosa one man's lie
Look I gotta go, yeah I'm running out of change
There's a lot of things if I could I'd rearrange

"Mysterious Ways"
---------------
(Heavy distortion recommended)
This song can be played with a capo on the 8th fret, if you can do that.
Then it becomes fairly simple just playing D instead of A, etc. (see the
chord formations). Or you can play it with a capo on 1st fret, which is
how I've finally put the chords. [Editor's Comment]
Intro/transitions: (Repeated about 9 times)
E--------------------------------------
B------10-10---------------------------
G-------9--9---------------------------
D----7--7--7---------------------------
A-10-----------------------------------
E--------------------------------------
(Note: the above is basically the A chord played on a few strings)
(Note: chords given below generally are played by an organ in background)
A D
Johnny took a walk with your sister the moon
A E
Let her pale light in to fill up your room
A D
You've been living underground, eating from a can
A E A
You've been running away from what you don't understand (love)
Chorus: (the chorus basically just switches back between the A and D chords)
E--------------10-10-|-----------------
B------10-10---10-10-|-----------------
G-------9--9----7--7-|-----------------
D-------7--7---------|-----------------
A--------------------|-----------------
E--------------------|-----------------
(A) (D)
(So, when you see A or D, play the above chord formations, respectively)
A D
She's slippy, you're sliding down
A D
She'll be there when you hit the ground
A D
It's alright...it's alright...it's alright
C G
She moves in mysterious ways
A D
It's alright...it's alright...it's alright
C G
She moves in mysterious ways
Johnny take a dive with your sister in the rain
Let her talk about the things you can't explain
To touch is to heal, to hurt is to steal
If you want to kiss the sky
Better learn how to kneel (...on your knees boy!)
She's the wave, she turns the tide
She sees the man inside the child
It's alright...it's alright...it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways (x3)
It's alright...it's alright...it's alright
Lift my days...light up my nights

One day you'll look back and you'll see
G A
Where you were held how by this love
D
While you could stand there
C
And not move on this moment
G
Follow this feeling
It's alright...it's alright...it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright...it's alright...it's alright
We move through miracle days
Spirit moves in mysterious ways
She moves with it, she moves with it

------------------------------------------
A D
Six o'clock in the morning
A D
You're the last to hear the warning
A D A D
You've been trying to throw your arms around the world
You've been falling off the sidewalk
Your lips move but you can't talk
Tryin' to throw your arms around the world
A D A D A D-A-D
I'm gonna run to you...run to you...run to you...be still
A D A D A D-A-D
I'm gonna run to you...run to you...run to you...woman I will
Sunrise like a nosebleed, your head hurts and you can't breathe
You been tryin' to throw you arms around the world
How far are you gonna go before you lose your way back home?
You've been trying to throw your arms around the world
I'm gonna run to you...
I dreamed that I saw Dali with a supermarket trolley
He was trying to throw his arms around a girl
He took an open top beetle through the eye of a needle
He was tryin' to throw his arms around the world
I'm gonna run to you...
Bridge: A-E-D-A A-E-D A-D-A-D-.....
Nothin' much to say I guess, just the same as all the rest
Been trying to throw your arms around the world
A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle
When you're tryin' to throw your arms around the world
I'm gonna run to you...run to you
I'm gonna run to you...run to you
I'm gonna run to you...run to you
Woman be still...woman be still
Be still...woman be still, woman I will

"Ultraviolet (Light My Way)"
--------------------------
[Keyboard plays a C#m on this sentence]
"Sometimes I feel like I don't know, sometimes I feel like checking out
I wanna get it wrong, can't always be strong, and love it won't be long"
Intro: E G#m A (this is structure (1))
(1) Oh sugar, don't you cry,
oh child wipe the tears from your eyes
You know I need you to be strong,
and the day's as dark as the night is long
C#m B
(2) Feel like trash, you make me feel clean
A
I'm in the black, can't see or be seen
C#m B A
Baby, baby, baby, light my way
C#m B A
Baby, baby, baby, light my way
(1) You bury your treasure where it can't be found
But your love's like a secret that's been passed around
There is a silence that comes to a house where no one can sleep
(2) I guess it's the price of love, I know it's not cheap
Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way
Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way
E B C#m A (twice)
(3) Ooooh, ultraviolet...
C#m B E A
Baby, baby, baby, light my way
(1) I remember when we could sleep on stones
But now we lie together in whispers and moans
When I was all messed up, and I heard opera in my head
(2) Your love was a lightbulb hanging over my bed
Baby, baby, baby, light my way
Baby, baby, baby, light my way
(3) Ooooh, ultraviolet...
G#m A E B

Don't believe what you hear, don't believe what you see

If you just close your eyes you can feel the enemy
When I first met you girl, you had fire in your soul
What happened your face of melting snow?
C
Now it looks like this

and you can swallow or you can spit
F G
You can throw it up or choke on it
And you can dream, so dream out loud
F G Am7
You know that your time is coming 'round
F G Am
... Don't let the bastards grind you down
No nothing makes sense, nothing seems to fit
I know you'd hit out if you only knew who to hit
And I'd join the movement if there was one I could believe in
Yeah I'd break bread and wine if there was a church I could receive in
'Cos I need it now
To take the cup, to fill it up
To drink it slow, I can't let you go
And I must be an Acrobat to talk like this and act like that
And you can dream, so dream out loud
... Don't let the bastards grind you down
What are we going to do now it's all been said?
No new ideas in the house, and every book has been read
And I must be an acrobat
To talk like this and act like that
And you can dream, so dream out loud
And you can find your own way out
You can build and I can will
And you can call I can't wait until
You can stash and you can seize
In dreams begin responsibilities
And I can love, and I can love
I know that the tide is turning 'round
...Don't let the bastards grind you down

Love is blindness, I don't want to see

Won't you wrap the night around me
Bm F# Bm
Take my heart, love is blindness
In a parked car, in a crowded street
You see your love made complete
Thread is ripping, the knot is slipping, love is blindness
Love is clockworks, and cold steel
Fingers too numb to feel
Squeeze the handle, blow out the candle, love is blindness
Love is blindness, I don't want to see
Won't you wrap the night around me
Oh my love, blindness
C G/B
A little death, without mourning
F# Bm
No call, and no warning

"Can't Help Falling In Love" [Elvis A. Presley]
----------------------------
[Capo on 1st fret]
C Em Am F C G7
Wise men say, only fools rush in
F G7 C Dm C G7 C
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay, would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you
Em B7 Em B7
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Em B7 Em A7 Dm G7
Darling so it goes, some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you
******************************************************************
"Paint It Black" [The Rolling Stones]
F#m C#7
I see a red door and I want it painted black
F#m C#7 F#m
No colours anymore I want them to turn black
E A F#m
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
E A E B C#7
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens every day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and I want it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
F#m C#7
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
F#m C#7 F#m
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
E A E F#m
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
E A E B C#7
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
F#m C#7
I wanna see your face painted black, black as night
F#m C#7
Don't wanna see the sun flying high in the sky
F#m C#7 F#m
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black, yeah

"Lady With The Spinning Head"
-----------------------------
E
Here she comes, lady luck again,
figure of eight, six and nine again.
A D E
Aaaah, aaah, my lady with the spinning head.
Whatever the deal, she won't let me down

La la la la la la la la la la

Lady with the spinning head
She's been gone, but I knew she'd back
She's got the rent, she'll put me in the black
Aaaah, aaah, my lady with the spinning head.
Aaaah, aaah, my lady with the spinning head.
I don't mind, she took the weight back off
Those pretty dice were rolling off
I'm on top when she's around
She's been taking me out of town

LEMON
Intro: Dm Bb Gm
Dm Bb Gm
Lemon, see through in the sunlight
Dm Bb Gm
She wore lemon, never in the daylight
Dm
She's gonna make you cry
Bb Gm
She's gonna make you whisper and moan
Dm Bb Gm
But when you're dry, she draws water from a stone
C Gm Bb
I feel like I'm slowly, slowly, slowly slipping under
C Gm Bb
I feel like I'm holding onto nothing
She wore lemon to colour in the cold grey night
She had heaven and she held on so tight
A man makes a picture, a moving picture
Through light projected he can see himself up close
A man captures colour, a man likes to stare
He turns his money into light to look for her
And I feel like I'm drifting, drifting, drifting from the shore
And I feel like I'm swimming out to her
F C Bb
Ohhhhhh.........................
F C Bb
Midnight is where the day begins (x3)
Lemon, see through in the sunlight
A man builds a city with banks and cathedrals
A man melts the sand so he can
See the world outside You're gonna meet her there
A man makes a car She's your destination
And builds roads to run (them) on You gotta get to her
A man dreams of leaving She's imagination
But he always stays behind
And these are the days when our work has come assunder
And these are the days when we look for something other
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
A man makes a picture, a moving picture
Through light projected
He can see himself up close Gotta meet her there
A man captures colour She's your destination
A man likes to stare There's no sleeping there
He turns his money into light She's imagination
To look for her
She is the dreamer
She's imagination
Through the light projected
He can see himself up close
**************************************************************
STAY (FARAWAY, SO CLOSE!)
The chord which I have labeled 'D*' is basically a D chord
with a nice picking pattern which I try to get close to by
playing D7+ and plain D, as follows:
E --x-x--x-x--2-----x-x--x-x--2---
B --2-3--2-3--3-----2-3--2-3--3---
G --2-2--2-2--2-----2-2--2-2--2---
D ---h----h----------h----h-------
A --------------------------------
E --------------------------------
D* Em
Green light, Seven Eleven
G D*
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
Em
You don't smoke, don't even want to
G D*
Hey now, check your change
Em
Dressed up like a car crash
G D*
The wheels are turning but you're upside down
Em D*
You say when he hits you, you don't mind
Em D*
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
Em G D*
Is that what it is?
Red lights, grey morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depend's on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch to the talk shows
Em F#m
And if you look, you look through me
G
And when you talk it's not to me
A
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing
G Em D*
If I could stay... then the night would give you up
G Em D*
Stay, and the day would keep its trust
G Em D*
Stay, and the night would be enough
Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satelite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans, London, Belfast and Berlin
And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout I'll only hear you
G Em D*
If I could stay... then the night would give you up
G Em D*
Stay, and the day would keep its trust
G F#m
Stay with the demons you drowned
G A
Stay with the spirit I found
G Em D*
Stay and the night would be enough
Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel hits the ground

I have a lover, a lover like no other
D G
She got soul, soul, soul, sweet soul
D G
And she teach me how to sing
Bm G
Shows me colours when there's none to see
Bm G
Gives me hope when I can't believe that
D G D
For the first time I feel love
I have a brother, when I'm a brother in need
I spend my whole time running
He spends his running after me
When I feel myself goin' down
I just call and he comes around
But for the first time I feel love
My father is a rich man, he wears a rich man's cloak
Gave me the keys to his kingdom (coming)
Gave me a cup of gold
He said "I have many mansions, and there are many rooms to see"
But I left by the back door
And I threw away the key...
For the first time
For the first time
For the first time
I feel love

THE WANDERER
F
I went out walking through the streets paved with gold
Bb
Lifted some stones, saw the skin and bones
F
Of a city without a soul
I went out walking under an atomic sky
Bb
Where the ground won't turn and the rain it burns
F
Like the tears when I said goodbye
Dm Bb
Yeah I went with nothing
F C
Nothing but the thought of you
Dm-Bb-C-F
I went wandering
I went drifting through the capitals of tin
Where men can't walk or freely talk
And sons turn their fathers in
I stopped outside a church house
where the citizens like to sit
They say they want the kingdom
But they don't want God in it
I went out riding
Down that ol' eight lane
I passed by a thousand signs
Looking for my own name
I went with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
Looking for you
I went out there in search of experience
To taste and to touch and to feel as much
As a man can before he repents
I went out searching, lookin' for one good man
A spirit who would not bend or break
Who would sit at his father's right hand
I went out walking with a bible and a gun
The word of God lay heavy on my heart
I was sure I was the one
Now Jesus, don't you wait up
Jesus, I'll be home soon
Yeah I went out for the papers
Told her I'd be back by noon
Yeah I left with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
Looking for you...
Yeah I left with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you...
I went wandering
