Stand By Me - Ben E. King

intro:  A F#m D E A 

 

          A                F#m

When the night has come, and the land is dark

         D          E                   A

And the moon is the only light we will see

A                        F#m

No, I won't be afraid, oh, I won't be afraid

         D            E             A

Just as long as you stand, stand by me

 

      A

  So darlin', darlin' stand by me

      F#m

  Oh stand by me

       D             E            A

  Oh stand, stand by me, stand by me 

 

 

If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall

Or the mountains should crumble to the sea

I won't cry, I won't cry, no, I won't shed a tear

Just as long as you stand, stand by me

 

  And darlin', darlin' stand by me 

  Oh stand by me

  Whoa stand now, stand by me, stand by me

 

solo

 

  And darlin', darlin' stand by me

  Oh stand by me

  Oh stand, stand by me, stand by me

 

If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall

Or the mountains should crumble to the sea

I won't cry, I won't cry, no, I won't shed a tear

Just as long as you stand, stand by me

 

  And darlin', darlin' stand by me

  Oh stand by me

  Whoa stand now, stand by me, stand by me

 

  So darlin', darlin' stand by me

  Oh stand by me

  Oh stand now, stand by me, stand by me

 

  Whenever you're in trouble just stand by me

  Oh stand by me

  Whoa stand now, oh stand, stand by me...

Luka - Suzanne Vega

(simplified version - original version in E with capo at 2nd fret)

 

G           D

My name is Luka

C              D

I live on the second floor

G          D

I live upstairs from you

 C                  D

Yes I think you've seen me before

Em      D                      Em

If you hear something late at night

               D                    C

Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight

            D                 C

Just don't ask me what it was

            D                 C

Just don't ask me what it was

            D                 G

Just don't ask me what it was

 

I think it's because I'm clumsy

I try not to talk too loud

Maybe it's because I'm crazy

I try not to act too proud

They only hit you until you cry

And after that you don't ask why

You just don't argue anymore

You just don't argue anymore

You just don't argue anymore

 

guitar solo:  G  D  C  D    G  D  C  D

 

Yes I think I'm OK

I walked into the door again

Well, if you ask that's what I'll say

And it's not your business anyway

I guess I'd like to be alone

With nothing broken, nothing thrown

Just don't ask me how I am

Just don't ask me how I am

Just don't ask me how I am

Chorus 2x

Blaze Of Glory - Jon Bon Jovi

[Dm]I wake up in the morning, and I [C]raise my weary head

I've got an [G]old coat for a pillow,

and the [Dm]earth was last [Dm7]night's [Dm]bed

I [F]don't know where I'm going, only [C]God knows where I've been

I'm a [G]devil on the run, a six gun lover,

a [Dm]candle in the wind.

 

When you're brought into this world, they say you're born in sin

well at least they gave me something,

I didn't have to steal or have to win.

Well they tell me that I'm wanted, yeah, I'm a wanted man,

I'm a colt in your stable I'm what Cain was to Abel,

mister, catch me if you can.



  I'm going [G]down in a blaze of [D]glory

  take me [G]now but know the [D]truth

  I'm going [G]out in a blaze of [D]glory

  Lord I [C]never drew first but I drew first blood

  I'm [G]no one's son call me young [Dm]gun.

 

You ask about my conscience, and I offer you my soul

you ask if I'll grow to be a wise man,

well I ask if I'll grow old,

you ask me if I've known love, and what it's like to sing songs

in the rain well, I've seen love come and I've seen it

shot down I've seen it die in vain.

 

  Shot down in a blaze of glory

  take me now but know the truth

  I'm going out in a blaze of glory

  Lord I never drew first but I drew first blood

  I'm no one's son call me young gun.

 

Each night I go to bed, I pray the Lord my soul to keep no

I ain't looking for forgiveness,

but before I'm six foot deep Lord,

I got to ask a favor, and I hope you'll understand

'cos I've lived life to the fullest,

let this boy die like a man staring down a bullet,

let me make my final stand.

 

Shot down in a blaze of glory

take me now but know the truth

I'm going out in a blaze of glory

Lord I never drew first

but I drew first blood

and I'm no one's son call me young gun,

I'm a young gun.

The Unforgiven - Metallica

Am                    Em         D               Am

New blood joins this earth and quickly he's sub-dued.

                         Em         D                      Am

Through constant pain disgrace, the young boy learns their rules.

                          Em       D                 Am

With time the child draws in this whipping boy done wrong.

                     Em           D                   Am

Deprived of all his thoughts, the young man struggles on and on,

                 C            G        C               G

he knows, oo, a vow unto his own that never from this day,

     C                  G    E

his will they'll take away.

 

   Am        C               G

  What I've felt, what I've known,

         Em                          Am

  never shined through in what I've shown.

   Am   C          G 

  Never be. Never see.

         E                   Am

  Won't see what might have been.

   Am        C               G

  What I've felt, what I've known,

  never shined through in what I've shown.

   Am    C          G

  Never free. Never me.

        E            Am      Am  C  G  Em

  So I dub the unforgiven.

 

 Am                  Em       D             Am

They dedicate their lives to running all of his

                        Em         D            Am

He tries to please them all, this bitter man he is

                          Em         D             Am

Through out the life the same, he's battled constantly

                      Em     D              Am

This fight he cannot win. A tired man they see no longer cares.

     C            G           C           G

The old man then prepares to die regretfully

      C              G   E

That old man here is me.

 

   Am        C               G

  What I've felt, what I've known,

         Em                          Am

   Am   C          G 

  Never be. Never see.

         E                   Am

  Won't see what might have been.

   Am        C               G

   Am    C          G

  Never free. Never me.

  So I dub the unforgiven.

After The Fall - Elvis Costello [LP Mighty Like A Rose, 1991]

Am                 E

  In an anonymous rendez-vous

                              Am

where the forbidden lovers repair

         C                         G

They're burning down another damn candle

         E                      Fmaj7

they're melting the tables and chairs

 

   Am                           E

Beneath them applause from the balcony

                                   Am

whenever they accomplished making love

C                                    G

Other times they thought they heard laughter

 E                       Fmaj7

coming from the balcony above

 

       G                         D

  She lies to his right and she carelessly resites

  Em                        D

  All of her brand new appetites

             G                          D

  She seems brittle and small it don't sound like her at all

  Em                         E

  Since she came back to him After the fall

 

         Am                     E

She said You never visited the countryside

                              Am

So I've made you a country to order

     C                           G

She put up a little tent in the bedroom

  E                         Fmaj7

Crickets played on a tape recorder

 

    Am                           E

The ceiling was festooned with phosphorous stars

                             Am

She noticed his skin turning cold

 C                              G

Burning all his clothes on the bonfire

            E                         Fmaj7

Relax she whispered and tightened the blindfold

 

       G                         D

  She lies to his right and she carelessly resites

  Em                        D

  All of her brand new appetites

             G                          D

  She seems brittle and small it don't sound like her at all

  Em                         E

  Since she came back to him After the fall

 

        Am                      E

You've changed but not for the better, babe 

                                Am

I'd tell you why but what's the use

 C                            G

'Cause it's the same kind of pity

    E                     Fmaj7

a drunkard gives as his excuse

 

Am                             E

You were sharp and ideal as a bobby pin

                                Am

Now your eyes are deserted and quiet

         C                              G

We both look like those poor shattered mannequins

         E                       Fmaj7

Thrown through the window in the riot

 

       G                       D

  She lies in his arms and without any qualms

  Em                   D

  Revels in shallow delights

             G                          D

  She seems brittle and small it don't look like her at all

  Em                         E

  Since she came back to him After the fall

What's Up - 4 Non Blondes

Intro: [A] [Bm] [D] [A]  2x

 

[A]25 years of my life and still

[Bm]Tryin' to get up that great big hill of [D]hope

for a desti[A]nation.

[A]I realized quickly when I knew I should 

That the [Bm]world was made up of this brotherhood of [D]man,

for whatever that [A]means.

 

  And so I [A]cry sometimes, when I'm lying in bed

  just to [Bm]get all out, what's in my head, then I[D],

  I'm feeling, a little pe[A]culiar.

  And so I [A]wake in the morning, and I step outside 

  And I [Bm]take a deep breath, and I get real high, and I[D],

  scream from the top of my lungs, "What's going [A]on?" 

 

  And I say, [A]"Hey yeah yeah hey, [Bm]hey yeah yeah." 

  I said, "[D]Hey, what's going [A]on?"

  And I say, [A]"Hey yeah yeah hey, [Bm]hey yeah yeah."

  I said, "[D]Hey, what's going [A]on?"

 

And I [A]try, oh my god, do I [Bmi]try 

I try all the [D]time, in this insti[A]tution. 

[A]And I pray, oh my god, do I [Bmi]pray

I pray every single [D]day, for a revo[A]lution. 

 

repeat chorus, last four lines are repeated 2x

Runaway Train - Soul Asylum

Intro: C

 

 C

Call you up in the middle of the night

Em

Like a firefly without a light

Am

You were there like a blowtorch burnin'

G

I was a key that could use a little turnin'

C

So I'm tired and I couldn't even sleep

Em

So many secrets I couldn't keep

Am

Promised muself I wouldn't leave

G

One more promise I couldn't keep

 

F                G

Seems no one can help me now

        C                   Am

And I'm in too deep there's no way out

F                Em           G

This time I have really let myself astray

 

  C

  Runaway train never going back

  Em

  Runaway on a one way track

  Am

  Seems like I should be getting somewhere

  G

  Somehow I'm neither here nor there

 

Follows same pattern as above

Can you help me remember how to smile

Make it somehow all seem worthwile

How on earth did I get so jaded

Life's mysteries seem so faded

I can go where no one else can go

I know what no one else knows

Here I am just drowning in the rain

With a ticket for a runaway train

 

Everything seems cut and dry

Day and night Earth and sky

Somehow I just don't believe it

 

  Runaway train never going back

  Runaway on a one way track

  Seems like I should be getting somewhere

  Somehow I'm neither here nor there

 

Got a ticket for a runaway train

Like a madman laughing at the rain

Little out of touch little insane

It's just easier than dealing with the pain

 

  Runaway train never going back

  Runaway on a one way track

  Seems like I should be getting somewhere

  Somehow I'm neither here nor there

  Runaway train never going back

  Runaway train tearing up the track

  Runaway train burning in my veins

  Runaway but it always seems the same.

Got no reason for coming to me and the rain running down.

            C        G

There's no reason.

Am      C           G                     F           Am

And the same voice coming to me like it's all slowin' down.

Am       C      G                         F         Am

It's not easy, nothing to say 'cause it's already said.

           C     G 

It's never easy.

        Am          C            G                 F

When I look on your eyes then I find that I'll do fine.

        Am          C                  G

When I look on your eyes then I'll do better.

   C                                Em

I thought I saw a man brought to life

                                         F

He was warm, he came around like he was dignified

 

He showed me what it was to cry

 C                                  Em

Well you couldn't be that man I adored

 

You don't seem to know

                              F

Don't seem to care what your heart is for

 

But I don't know him anymore

 

            Am

   There's nothing where he used to lie

   G

   My conversation has run dry

   Em

   That's what's going on

   G                   C

   Nothing's fine I'm torn

 

                    G                  Am

   I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel

                      F                          C

   I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor 

                    G                     Am

   Illusion never changed, into something real 

                      F                             C

   I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn

   You're a little late, I'm already torn

 

 C                                 Em

So I guess the fortune teller's right

                                                     F

I should have seen just what was there and not some holy light

 

But you crawl beneath my veins and now

 

   Am

   I don't care, I have no luck

   G

   I don't miss it all that much 

   Em

   There's just so many things

    G                      C

   That I can't touch I'm torn

   I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel

                    G                     Am

   Illusion never changed, into something real 

                      F                             C

   I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
