Africa – Toto
[Verse 1] I hear the drums echoing tonight
She hears only whispers of some quiet conversa - tion
She's coming in, twelve thirty flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me toward salva - tion
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melo - dies
He turned to me as if to say “hurry boy, it's waiting there for you”
[Chorus]
Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had...
[Verse 2]
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary compa-ny
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Ser – engeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I've become
[Chorus]
Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had...
Ooo
[Bridge]
“hurry boy, she's waiting there for you”
[Outro]
It’s gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa x 5
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had…
All I Want is You - U2
[Verse 1]
You say you want diamonds and a ring of gold
You say you want your story to remain untold
[Chorus 1]
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
[Verse 2]
You say you'll give me a highway with no one on it
A treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night
You say you'll give me eyes in a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
[Chorus 2]
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
[Verse 3]
You say you want your love to work out right
To last with me through the night
You say you want diamonds and a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold
[Chorus 3]
But all the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
Better be Home Soon - Crowded House
[Verse 1]
Somewhere deep inside
Something's got a hold on you
And it's pushing me aside
See it stretch on forever
[Chorus]
And I know I'm right, For the first time in my life
That's why I tell you, You'd better be home soon
[Verse 2]
Stripping back the coats
Of lies and deception
Back to nothingness
Like a week in the desert
[Chorus]
And I know I'm right, For the first time in my life
That's why I tell you, You'd better be home soon
[Bridge]
So don't say no, don't say nothing's wrong
Cos when you get back home maybe I'll be gone
[Verse 3]
It would cause me pain
If we were to end it
But I could start again
You can depend on it
[Chorus]
And I know I'm right
For the first time in my life
That's why I tell you
You'd better be home soon
Blowin In The Wind - Bob Dylan
[Verse]
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand
Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they're forever banned
[Chorus]
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
[Verse]
Yes, and how many years can a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea
Yes, and how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free
Yes, and how many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn't see
[Chorus]
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
[Verse]
Yes, and how many times must a man look up,
Before he can see the sky
Yes, and how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry
Yes, and how many deaths will it take till he knows,
that too many people have died
[Chorus]
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind
Can't Help Falling In Love With You - Elvis Presley
[Verse 1]
Wise men say, only fools rush in
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
[Chorus]
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
[Verse 2]
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
[Chorus]
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
[Verse 3]
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
Count on Me - Bruno Mars
[Verse 1]
If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea
I'll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see
I'll be the light to guide you
[Pre-Chorus]
Find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
[Chorus]
You can count on me like one, two, three
I'll be there, And I know when I need it
I can count on you like four, three, two
And you'll be there
'cos that's what friends are s'posed to do, Oh yeah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh... Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh.. Yeah yeah
[Verse 2]
If you're tossin' and you're turnin' and you just can't fall asleep
I'll sing a song beside you
And if you ever forget how much you really mean to me
Every day I will remind you, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
You'll always have my shoulder when you cry
I'll never let go, never say goodbye, you know
[Chorus/Outro]
Every Rose - Poison
[Verse 1]
We both lie silently still, in the dead of the night
Although we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside
Was it something I said, or something I did
did my words not come out right?
Though I tried not to hurt you, though I tried, but I guess that's why they say
[Chorus]
Every rose has its thorn.
Just like every night has its dawn.
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song.
Every rose has its thorn. Yeah, it does.
[Verse 2]
I listen to our favorite song, playing on the radio
Hear the DJ say love's a game of easy come and easy go
But I wonder, does he know, has he ever felt like this?
And I know that you'd be here right now if I coulda let you know, somehow I guess
[Chorus]
Every rose has its thorn.
Just like every night has its dawn.
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song.
Every rose has its thorn. Yeah, it does.
[Bridge]
Though it's been a while now, I can still feel so much pain
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals, but the scar, that scar remains
[Verse 3]
I know I coulda saved our love that night if I'd known what to say.
Instead of making love we both made our separate ways.
And now I hear you've found somebody new, and that I never meant that much to you.
To hear that tears me up inside, and to see you cuts me like a knife, I guess
[Chorus]
Fall At Your Feet - Crowed House
[Verse 1
I'm really close tonight
And I feel like I'm moving inside her
Lying in the dark
I think that I'm beginning to know her
Let it go
I'll be there when you call
[Chorus]
Whenever I fall at your feet
And you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain
[Verse 2]
You're hiding from me now
There's something in the way that you're talking
The words don't sound right
But I hear them all moving inside you
Go ... I'll be waiting when you call
[Chorus]
Whenever I fall at your feet
And you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain
[Bridge]
The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I'm more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help
Who knows where that might lead G
I fall
End chorus: Whenever I fall at your feet, And you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I fall (at your feet...) Whenever I fall
Hallelujah - Cohen
[Verse 1]
I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 2]
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 3]
Baby I have been here before I know this room,
I've walked this floor I used to live alone before I knew you.
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 4]
There was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 5]
Maybe there’s a God above
But all I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
It’s not a cry you can hear at night
It’s not somebody who has seen the light
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 6]
You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well, really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light in every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 7]
I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Heart of Gold - Neil Young
[Verse 1]
I want to live, I want to give
I've been a miner for a heart of gold
It's these expressions I never give
That keep me searching for a heart of gold
[Chorus]
And I'm getting old
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old
[Verse 2]
I've been to Hollywood, I've been to Redwood
I've crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
I've been in my mind, it's such a fine line
[Chorus]
And I'm getting old
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old
[Outro]
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
You keep me searching and I'm growin' old
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
I've been a miner for a heart of gold
I Can See Clearly Now - Jimmy Cliff
[Verse 1]
I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
[Chorus]
It's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
It's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
[Verse 2]
I think I can make it now the pain is gone,
All of the bad feelings have disappeared.
Here is the rainbow I've been praying for.
[Chorus]
It's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
It's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
[Bridge]
Look all around, there's nothing but blue skies
Look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies
[Repeat verse 1]
I Will Survive Chords - Gloria Gaynor
[Verse 1]
At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights, thinking how you did me wrong,
And I grew strong; and I learned how to get along.
And so you're back, from outer space,
I just walked in to find you here, with that sad look upon your face.
I should have changed that stupid lock, I should have made you leave your key,
If I had known for just one second, you'd be back to bother me.
[Chorus]
Go on now, go; walk out the door;
Just turn around now, 'cos you're not welcome any more.
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd crumble; did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I; I will survive,
Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive.
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give,
And I'll survive, I will survive, hey hey
[Verse 2]
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart.
And I spent oh, so many nights, just feeling sorry for myself,
I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high.
And you see me; somebody new,
I'm not that chained up little person, still in love with you.
And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free, Esus4 E Now I'm saving all my loving, for someone who's loving me.
[Chorus] x 2
[Verse 3]
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart.
Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart.
And I spent oh, so many nights, just feeling sorry for myself,
I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high.
And you see me; somebody new,
I'm not that chained up little person, still in love with you.
And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free,
Now I'm saving all my loving, for someone who's loving me.
[Chorus]
Knocking on Heaven's Door - Bob Dylan
[Verse]
Mama take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark, too dark to see
I feel I'm knockin on heaven's door
[Chorus]
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
[Verse]
Mama put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That long black cloud is comin' down
I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door
[Chorus]
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
[Verse]
Mama, wipe this blood from my face
I can't see through it anymore
It's a feeling that I just can't trace
I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door
[Chorus]
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Lean on Me - Bill Withers
[Verse 1]
Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain, We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
[Chorus]
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
[Verse 2]
Please swallow your pride,
if I have things, you need to borrow
For no one can fill,
those of your needs, that you won’t let show
[Bridge]
So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[Verse 3]
If there is a load, you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me (call me)
Loyal - Dave Dobbyn
[Verse]
I can't remember last time I thanked you,
Keeping my distance unintentionally.
Too close for comfort, just ain't close enough.
If I could have more time we would brainstorm.
And I love you tender, but we must walk away,
Keeping you on my greeting card file.
And if it were different - did you know it ain't?
Let's get on with it love...
[Chorus]
AND CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL SAY YOU'RE LOYAL TOO.
I KNOW YOU'RE LOYAL - I FEEL YOUR LOYAL TRUTH,
CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL HOLD YOU LOYAL TOO,
AND WE ARE LOYAL, KEEP IT THAT WAY...
Keep it that way girl...
[Verse]
Out in the battle, flung far and used.
Where does allegiance lie?
Sometimes when all of your hopes, and all of your dreams,
Are too much to value in one moment.
And all of us anxious, but why hurry love?
History's here and now.
Oh and why are you waiting - waiting for what?
The history of some love?
[Chorus]
AND CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL SAY YOU'RE LOYAL TOO.
I KNOW YOU'RE LOYAL - I FEEL YOUR LOYAL TRUTH,
CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL HOLD YOU LOYAL TOO,
AND WE ARE LOYAL, KEEP IT THAT WAY...
Keep it that way babyl...
[Bridge]
And we are loyal - haven't you known me long enough girl?
If I could see your heart right now,
Maybe there'd be a change or two.
[Chorus]
AND YOU CAN CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL SAY YOU'RE LOYAL TOO.
I KNOW YOU'RE LOYAL - I FEEL YOUR LOYAL TRUTH,
CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL HOLD YOU LOYAL TOO,
AND WE ARE LOYAL, KEEP IT THAT WAY...
LOYAL I WILL SAY YOUR LOYAL TOO
KNOW YOUR LOYAL - I WILL FEEL YOUR LOYAL TRUTH
CALL ME LOYAL - I WILL HOLD YOU LOYAL TOO
WE ARE LOYAL
Keep it that way baby,
Keep it that way baby
Keep it that way now!
Riptide - Vance Joy
[Verse 1]
I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
Oh, all my friends are turning green You're the magician's assistant in their dream
[Pre-chorus]
Ah-ooh, ah
And they come unstuck
[Chorus]
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left-hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
[Verse 2]
There's this movie that I think you'll like
This guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City
This cowboy's running from himself
And she’s been living on the highest shelf
[Pre-chorus]
Ah-ooh, ah
And they come unstuck
[Chorus]
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left-hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
[Bridge]
I just wanna, I just wanna know
If you're gonna, if you're gonna stay
I just gotta, I just gotta know
I can't have it, I can't have it any other way
I swear she's destined for the screen
Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you've ever seen,
[Chorus]
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left-hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left-hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
Yeah, I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
The Boxer Chords - Simon & Garfunkel
[Verse 1]
I am just a poor boy, though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles such are promises
All lies and jest still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest
When I left my home and family I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of a railway station running scared
Laying low seeking out the poorer quarters where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only they would know
[Refrain]
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-la-la-la lie-la-lie
Lie la lie
Lie-la la la la la lie la la la la lie
[Verse 2]
Asking only workmans wages I come looking for a job
But I get no offers
a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome I took some comfort there
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
The Rose - Bette Midler
[Verse 1]
Some say love, it is a river,
That drowns the tender reed
Some say love, it is a razor,
That leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love, it is a hunger,
An endless aching need
I say love, it is a flower and you its only seed
[Verse 2]
It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul afraid of dying
That never learns to live
[Verse 3]
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snow
Lies the seed that with the sun's love,
In the spring becomes the rose
Weather With You - Crowded House
[Verse 1]
Walking 'round the room singing Stormy Weather
At 57 Mount Pleasant Street
Now it's the same room but everything's different
You can fight the sleep but not the dream
[Bridge]
Things ain't cookin'
in my kitchen
Strange affliction wash over me
Julius Caesar
and the Roman Empire
Couldn't conquer the blue sky
[Verse 2]
There's a small boat made of china
Going nowhere on the mantlepiece
Do I lie like a loungeroom lizard
Or do I sing like a bird released?
[Chorus]
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
The weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
The weather with you
Whats Up - 4 Non Blondes
[Verse 1]
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill
Of hope for a destination
I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood
Of man, for whatever that means
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
and I - I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
and I take a deep breath and I get real high and
I scream from the top of my lungs "What's going on?"
[Chorus]
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
[Verse 2]
And I try, oh my God, do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray, oh my God, do I pray
I pray every single day
For a revolution
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Outro] Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination

All I Want is You - U2
[Verse 1]
You say you want diamonds and a ring of gold
You say you want your story to remain untold
[Chorus 1]
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
[Verse 2]
You say you'll give me a highway with no one on it
A treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night
You say you'll give me eyes in a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
[Chorus 2]
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
[Verse 3]
You say you want your love to work out right
To last with me through the night
You say you want diamonds and a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold
[Chorus 3]
But all the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
Better be Home Soon - Crowded House
[Verse 1]
Somewhere deep inside
Something's got a hold on you
And it's pushing me aside
See it stretch on forever
[Chorus]
And I know I'm right, For the first time in my life
That's why I tell you, You'd better be home soon
[Verse 2]
Stripping back the coats
Of lies and deception
Back to nothingness
Like a week in the desert
[Chorus]
And I know I'm right, For the first time in my life
That's why I tell you, You'd better be home soon
[Bridge]
So don't say no, don't say nothing's wrong
Cos when you get back home maybe I'll be gone
[Verse 3]
It would cause me pain
If we were to end it
But I could start again
You can depend on it
[Chorus]
And I know I'm right
For the first time in my life
That's why I tell you
You'd better be home soon
Blowin In The Wind - Bob Dylan
[Verse]
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand
Yes, and how many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they're forever banned
[Chorus]
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
[Verse]
Yes, and how many years can a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea
Yes, and how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free
Yes, and how many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn't see
[Chorus]
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
[Verse]
Yes, and how many times must a man look up,
Before he can see the sky
Yes, and how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry
Yes, and how many deaths will it take till he knows,
that too many people have died
[Chorus]
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind
Can't Help Falling In Love With You - Elvis Presley
[Verse 1]
Wise men say, only fools rush in
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
[Chorus]
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
[Verse 2]
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
[Chorus]
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
[Verse 3]
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
Count on Me - Bruno Mars
[Verse 1]
If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea
I'll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see
I'll be the light to guide you
[Pre-Chorus]
Find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
[Chorus]
You can count on me like one, two, three
I'll be there, And I know when I need it
I can count on you like four, three, two
And you'll be there
'cos that's what friends are s'posed to do, Oh yeah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh... Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh.. Yeah yeah
[Verse 2]
If you're tossin' and you're turnin' and you just can't fall asleep
I'll sing a song beside you
And if you ever forget how much you really mean to me
Every day I will remind you, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
You'll always have my shoulder when you cry
I'll never let go, never say goodbye, you know
[Chorus/Outro]
Every Rose - Poison
[Verse 1]
We both lie silently still, in the dead of the night
Although we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside
Was it something I said, or something I did
did my words not come out right?
Though I tried not to hurt you, though I tried, but I guess that's why they say
[Chorus]
Every rose has its thorn.
Just like every night has its dawn.
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song.
Every rose has its thorn. Yeah, it does.
[Verse 2]
I listen to our favorite song, playing on the radio
Hear the DJ say love's a game of easy come and easy go
But I wonder, does he know, has he ever felt like this?
And I know that you'd be here right now if I coulda let you know, somehow I guess
[Chorus]
Every rose has its thorn.
Just like every night has its dawn.
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song.
Every rose has its thorn. Yeah, it does.
[Bridge]
Though it's been a while now, I can still feel so much pain
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals, but the scar, that scar remains
[Verse 3]
I know I coulda saved our love that night if I'd known what to say.
Instead of making love we both made our separate ways.
And now I hear you've found somebody new, and that I never meant that much to you.
To hear that tears me up inside, and to see you cuts me like a knife, I guess
[Chorus]
Fall At Your Feet - Crowed House
[Verse 1
I'm really close tonight
And I feel like I'm moving inside her
Lying in the dark
I think that I'm beginning to know her
Let it go
I'll be there when you call
[Chorus]
Whenever I fall at your feet
And you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain
[Verse 2]
You're hiding from me now
There's something in the way that you're talking
The words don't sound right
But I hear them all moving inside you
Go ... I'll be waiting when you call
[Chorus]
Whenever I fall at your feet
And you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain
[Bridge]
The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I'm more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help
Who knows where that might lead G
I fall
End chorus: Whenever I fall at your feet, And you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I fall (at your feet...) Whenever I fall
Hallelujah - Cohen
[Verse 1]
I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 2]
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 3]
Baby I have been here before I know this room,
I've walked this floor I used to live alone before I knew you.
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 4]
There was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 5]
Maybe there’s a God above
But all I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
It’s not a cry you can hear at night
It’s not somebody who has seen the light
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 6]
You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well, really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light in every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[Verse 7]
I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
[Chorus]
Heart of Gold - Neil Young
[Verse 1]
I want to live, I want to give
I've been a miner for a heart of gold
It's these expressions I never give
That keep me searching for a heart of gold
[Chorus]
And I'm getting old
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old
[Verse 2]
I've been to Hollywood, I've been to Redwood
I've crossed the ocean for a heart of gold
I've been in my mind, it's such a fine line
[Chorus]
And I'm getting old
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
And I'm getting old
[Outro]
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
You keep me searching and I'm growin' old
Keep me searching for a heart of gold
I've been a miner for a heart of gold
I Can See Clearly Now - Jimmy Cliff
[Verse 1]
I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
[Chorus]
It's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
It's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
[Verse 2]
I think I can make it now the pain is gone,
All of the bad feelings have disappeared.
Here is the rainbow I've been praying for.
[Chorus]
It's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
It's gonna be a bright, (bright) bright, (bright) sun shiny day
[Bridge]
Look all around, there's nothing but blue skies
Look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies
[Repeat verse 1]
I Will Survive Chords - Gloria Gaynor
[Verse 1]
At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights, thinking how you did me wrong,
And I grew strong; and I learned how to get along.
And so you're back, from outer space,
I just walked in to find you here, with that sad look upon your face.
I should have changed that stupid lock, I should have made you leave your key,
If I had known for just one second, you'd be back to bother me.
[Chorus]
Go on now, go; walk out the door;
Just turn around now, 'cos you're not welcome any more.
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd crumble; did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I; I will survive,
Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive.
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give,
And I'll survive, I will survive, hey hey
[Verse 2]
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart.
And I spent oh, so many nights, just feeling sorry for myself,
I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high.
And you see me; somebody new,
I'm not that chained up little person, still in love with you.
And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free, Esus4 E Now I'm saving all my loving, for someone who's loving me.
[Chorus] x 2
[Verse 3]
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart.
Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart.
And I spent oh, so many nights, just feeling sorry for myself,
I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high.
And you see me; somebody new,
I'm not that chained up little person, still in love with you.
And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free,
Now I'm saving all my loving, for someone who's loving me.
[Chorus]
Knocking on Heaven's Door - Bob Dylan
[Verse]
Mama take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark, too dark to see
I feel I'm knockin on heaven's door
[Chorus]
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
[Verse]
Mama put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That long black cloud is comin' down
I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door
[Chorus]
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
[Verse]
Mama, wipe this blood from my face
I can't see through it anymore
It's a feeling that I just can't trace
I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door
[Chorus]
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Lean on Me - Bill Withers
[Verse 1]
Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain, We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
[Chorus]
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
[Verse 2]
Please swallow your pride,
if I have things, you need to borrow
For no one can fill,
those of your needs, that you won’t let show
[Bridge]
So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[Verse 3]
If there is a load, you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me (call me)
Loyal - Dave Dobbyn
[Verse]
I can't remember last time I thanked you,
Keeping my distance unintentionally.
Too close for comfort, just ain't close enough.
If I could have more time we would brainstorm.
And I love you tender, but we must walk away,
Keeping you on my greeting card file.
And if it were different - did you know it ain't?
Let's get on with it love...
[Chorus]
AND CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL SAY YOU'RE LOYAL TOO.
I KNOW YOU'RE LOYAL - I FEEL YOUR LOYAL TRUTH,
CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL HOLD YOU LOYAL TOO,
AND WE ARE LOYAL, KEEP IT THAT WAY...
Keep it that way girl...
[Verse]
Out in the battle, flung far and used.
Where does allegiance lie?
Sometimes when all of your hopes, and all of your dreams,
Are too much to value in one moment.
And all of us anxious, but why hurry love?
History's here and now.
Oh and why are you waiting - waiting for what?
The history of some love?
[Chorus]
AND CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL SAY YOU'RE LOYAL TOO.
I KNOW YOU'RE LOYAL - I FEEL YOUR LOYAL TRUTH,
CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL HOLD YOU LOYAL TOO,
AND WE ARE LOYAL, KEEP IT THAT WAY...
Keep it that way babyl...
[Bridge]
And we are loyal - haven't you known me long enough girl?
If I could see your heart right now,
Maybe there'd be a change or two.
[Chorus]
AND YOU CAN CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL SAY YOU'RE LOYAL TOO.
I KNOW YOU'RE LOYAL - I FEEL YOUR LOYAL TRUTH,
CALL ME LOYAL - I'LL HOLD YOU LOYAL TOO,
AND WE ARE LOYAL, KEEP IT THAT WAY...
LOYAL I WILL SAY YOUR LOYAL TOO
KNOW YOUR LOYAL - I WILL FEEL YOUR LOYAL TRUTH
CALL ME LOYAL - I WILL HOLD YOU LOYAL TOO
WE ARE LOYAL
Keep it that way baby,
Keep it that way baby
Keep it that way now!
Riptide - Vance Joy
[Verse 1]
I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
Oh, all my friends are turning green You're the magician's assistant in their dream
[Pre-chorus]
Ah-ooh, ah
And they come unstuck
[Chorus]
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left-hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
[Verse 2]
There's this movie that I think you'll like
This guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City
This cowboy's running from himself
And she’s been living on the highest shelf
[Pre-chorus]
Ah-ooh, ah
And they come unstuck
[Chorus]
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left-hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
[Bridge]
I just wanna, I just wanna know
If you're gonna, if you're gonna stay
I just gotta, I just gotta know
I can't have it, I can't have it any other way
I swear she's destined for the screen
Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you've ever seen,
[Chorus]
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left-hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left-hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
Yeah, I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
The Boxer Chords - Simon & Garfunkel
[Verse 1]
I am just a poor boy, though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles such are promises
All lies and jest still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest
When I left my home and family I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of a railway station running scared
Laying low seeking out the poorer quarters where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only they would know
[Refrain]
Lie-la-lie
Lie-la-la-la-la lie-la-lie
Lie la lie
Lie-la la la la la lie la la la la lie
[Verse 2]
Asking only workmans wages I come looking for a job
But I get no offers
a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome I took some comfort there
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
The Rose - Bette Midler
[Verse 1]
Some say love, it is a river,
That drowns the tender reed
Some say love, it is a razor,
That leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love, it is a hunger,
An endless aching need
I say love, it is a flower and you its only seed
[Verse 2]
It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul afraid of dying
That never learns to live
[Verse 3]
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snow
Lies the seed that with the sun's love,
In the spring becomes the rose
Weather With You - Crowded House
[Verse 1]
Walking 'round the room singing Stormy Weather
At 57 Mount Pleasant Street
Now it's the same room but everything's different
You can fight the sleep but not the dream
[Bridge]
Things ain't cookin'
in my kitchen
Strange affliction wash over me
Julius Caesar
and the Roman Empire
Couldn't conquer the blue sky
[Verse 2]
There's a small boat made of china
Going nowhere on the mantlepiece
Do I lie like a loungeroom lizard
Or do I sing like a bird released?
[Chorus]
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
The weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you
Everywhere you go, you always take the weather
The weather with you
Whats Up - 4 Non Blondes
[Verse 1]
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill
Of hope for a destination
I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood
Of man, for whatever that means
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
and I - I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
and I take a deep breath and I get real high and
I scream from the top of my lungs "What's going on?"
[Chorus]
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
[Verse 2]
And I try, oh my God, do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray, oh my God, do I pray
I pray every single day
For a revolution
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Outro] Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
