A/C# E4/B A E4/B
When i see you sky as i kite, as high as i might i can't get that high
A/C# E4/B A E4/B
the how you move, the way you burst the clouds, it makes me want to try
when i see you sticky as lips, as licky as trips
i can't lick that far but when you pout
the way you shout out loud it makes me want to start
and when i see you happy as a girl
that swims in a works of magic show
it makes me bite my fingers through
to think i could've let you go
A/C# G A/C#
And when i see you take the same sweet steps
G A/C# G
you used to take i say i'll keep holding you
A/C# G (Intro)
my arms so tight, i'll never let you slip away
and when i see you kitten as a cat
yeah as smitten as that
i can't get that small
the way you fur
the how you purr
it makes me want to paw you all
and when i see you happy as a girl
that lives in a world of make-believe
it makes me pull my hair all out
to think i could've let you leave
and when i see you
take the same sweet steps
you used to take
i know i'll keep on holding you
in arms so tight
they'll never let you go

B-------------------------------| (let ring for another measure)
G-----------2---0h2-------------|

Repeat this constantly (i.e., every other measure)
Synth line adapted for guitar:
One measure each of a swell on the following chords:
Am--221-|

B-------------3------5--------|-------------------------------|
G----5------------------------|--------5----------------------|
At the end of the first verse play the following fill (mixed low)
Dm---312 (four measures)
(strum pattern is easy enough to figure out; precision isn't important here
anyway. Vary it a bit by not sounding all three notes; also, in the fourth
measure play a slide up to the 5th fret of the high E string)
Repeat, but play this for fourth measure:
E (high)------3/5---5-----5-----5
In second verse, play this fill at the line "He waits to hear her..."
(let ring throughout)

B----3--------3------3-----|------3--------3-----3---|
G-2-----2---------2-----2--|--0------0--------0----0-|
Then repeat first measure twice. Repeat.
Play this fill underneath chorus
(you do not play the main riff here)

Then third verse as before into chorus and end.
Chords:
Am G Dm Am
he waits for her to understand, but she won't understand at all
she waits all night for him to call, but he won't call anymore
he waits to hear her say: forgive
but she just drops her pearl-black eyes
and prays to hear him say 'i love you'
but he tells no more lies
he waits for her to sympathize, but she won't sympathize at all
she waits all night to feel his kiss but always wakes alone
he waits to hear her say: forget
but she just hangs her head in pain
and prays to hear him say 'no more'
i'll never leave again
G Dm Am
how did we get this far apart?
Am G
we used to be so close together
how did we get this far apart?
i thought this love would last forever
he waits for her to understand but she won't understand at all
she waits all night for him to call, but he won't call
he waits to hear her say: forgive
but she just drops her pearl-black eyes
and prays to hear him say 'i love you'
but he tells no more lies
how did we get this far apart?
we used to be so close together
how did we get this far apart?
i thought this love would last forever

From the edge of the deep green sea
-----------------------------------
Intro: E-D-E-D-E-D... Em D* G Am [D* 2 0 0 2 3 0 (Dsus2/F#)]
Em D* G Am
every time we do this, I fall for her
Em D* G Am
wave after wave after wave it's all for her
Em D* G
i know this can't be wrong i say (and i'll lie to keep her happy)
Am Em D*
as long as i know that you know that today i belong
G Am
right here with you, right here with you...
and so we watch the sun come up from the edge of the deep green sea
and she listens like her head's on fire,
like she wants to believe in me
so i try put your hands in the sky
surrender
remember
we'll be here forever and we'll never say goodbye...
i've never been so colourfully-see-through-head before
i've never been so wonderfully-me-you-want-some-more
and all i want is to keep it like this
you and me alone, a secret kiss
and don't go home, don't go away
don't let this end, please stay
not just for today
never never never never never let me go she says
hold me like this for a hundred thousand million days
but suddenly she slows
and looks down at my breaking face
why do you cry? what did i say?
but it's just rain i smile
brushing my tears away...
Bm C
i wish i could just stop
D Em
i know another moment will break my heart
Bm C
too many tears, too many times
D Em
too many years i've cried over you
E D
how much more can we use it up?
E D
drink it dry? take this drug?
E D
looking for something forever gone
E D
but something we will always want?
why why why are you letting me go? she says
i feel you pulling back, i feel you changing shape...
and just as i'm breaking free
she hangs herself in front of me
slips her dress like a flag to the floor
and hands in the sky surrenders it all...
i wish i could just stop
i know another moment will break my heart
too many tears
too many times
too many years i've cried for you
it's always the same
wake up in the rain
head in pain
hung in shame
a different name
same old game
love in vain
and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
away from home again...
*****************************************************************************
Wendy Time
----------
Dm Em
You look like you could do with a friend she said
F Am
You look like you could use a hand
Someone to make you smile she said
Someone who can understand
Share your trouble, comfort you
Hold you close and I can do all of these
I think you need me here with you
You look like you do with a sister she said
You look like you need a girl to call your own...
Like fabulous! fabulous! Call me fabulous!
And rubbing her hands so slow
You stare at me all strange, she said, are you hungry for more?
I've had enough I said, please leave me alone, please go
G E Dm F
It doesn't touch me at all, it doesn't touch me at all
You know that you could do with a friend she said
You know that you could use a word
Like feel or follow or fuck she said
And laughing away as she turned
You've everything but no-one like the last man on earth
And when I die, I said, I'll leave you it all
Door closes leaves me cold
It doesn't touch me at all, it doesn't touch me at all
*****************************************************************************
Doing the Unstuck
-----------------
F#m E
(I) It's a perfect day for letting go
D E
For setting fire to bridges, boats,
F#m E
And other dreary worlds you know
D A
Let's get happy!
(I) It's a perfect day for making out
To wake up with a smile without a doubt
To burst grin giggle bliss skip jump and sing and shout
Let's get happy!
G F#m
(II) But it's much to late you say for doing this now
Bm D
We should have done it then, well it just goes to show
Bm C#m
How wrong you can be and how you really should know
D (F#m-E-D-E...)
That it's never too late to get up and go
(I) It's a perfect day for kiss and swell
For rip-zipping button-popping kiss and well...
There's loads of other stuff can make you yell
Let's get happy!
(I) It's a perfect day for doing the unstuck
For dancing like you can't hear the beat
And you don't give a further thought
To things like feet. Let's get happy!
(II) But it's much too late you say...
F#m A
(III) Kick out the gloom, kick out the blues
Bm D
Tear out the pages with all the bad news
F#m A
Pull down the mirrors and pull down the walls
Bm D
Tear up the stairs and tear up the floors
(III) Oh just burn down the house! Burn down the street!
Turn everything red and the beat is complete
With the sound of your world going up in fire
It's a perfect day to throw back your head
F#m E D-E...
And kiss it all goodbye
(I) It's a perfect day for getting old
Forgetting all your worries, life,
And everything that makes you cry
Let's get happy!
(I) It's a perfect day for dreams come true
For thinking big
And doing anything you want to do
Let's get happy!
(II) But it's much too late you say...
(III) Kick out the gloom...
F#m
And kiss it all goodbye...

Friday I'm In Love (crd)
------------------------
D G D A
i don't care if monday's blue, tuesday's grey and wednesday too
Bm G D A
thursday i don't care about you, it's friday i'm in love
monday you can fall apart, tuesday wednesday break my heart
thursday doesn't even start, it's friday i'm in love
saturday wait, and sunday always comes too late
but friday never hesitate...
i don't care if monday's black, tuesday wednesday heart attack
thursday never looking back, it's friday i'm in love
monday you can hold your head, tuesday wednesday stay in bed
or thursday watch the walls instead, it's friday i'm in love
saturday wait, and sunday always comes too late
but friday never hesitate...
dressed up to the eyes, it's a wonderful surprise
to see your shoes and your spirits rise
throwing out your frown and just smiling at the sound
and as sleek as a shriek spinning round and round
always take a big bite, it's such a gorgeous sight
to see you in the middle of the night
you can never get enough, enough of this stuff
it's friday i'm in love
*****************************************************************************
Trust

Remember to use the capo on 2nd fret:
Bm D G D
There's no-one left in the world that I can hold onto
There is really no-one left at all, there is only you
And if you leave me now, you leave all that we were undone
There is really no-one left, you are the only one
F#m G D Bm
And still the hardest part for you to put your trust in me
F#m G D A
I love you more than I can say. Why won't you just believe?

A E
Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you say
F#m
I just can't stay here every yesterday
D
Like keep on acting out the same the way we act out
A E
Every way to smile, forget, and make-believe we never needed
F#m D
Any more than this, any more than this
Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you do
I know I'll never really get inside of you
To make your eyes catch fire the way they should
The way the blue could pull me in
If they only would, if they only would
At least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else
That hides away
From me and you there're worlds to part
With aching looks and breaking hearts
And all the prayers your hands can make
Oh I just take as much as you can throw
And then throw it all away
Oh I throw it all away
Like throwing faces at the sky
E
Like throwing arms round yesterday I stood and stared
F#m
Wide-eyed in front of you
E
And the face I saw looked back
F#m
The way I wanted to
E F#m
But I just can't hold my tears away the way you do
G F#m
Elise believe I never wanted this
I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises
I thought you were the girl always dreamed about
But I let the dream go, and the promises broke
And the make-believe ran out...
Oh elise it doesn't matter what you say
I just can't stay here every yesterday
Like keep on acting out the same
The way we act out
Every way to smile, forget,
And make-believe we never needed
Any more than this
Any more than this
And every time I try to pick it up
Like falling sand
As fast as I pick it up
It runs away through my clutching hands
But there's nothing else I can really do
There's nothing else
I can really do at all...

Em D Am B
If only you'd never speak to me the way that you do
Em D Am B
If only you'd never speak like that it's like listening to
Em D Am B
A breaking heart, a falling sky, fire go out and friendship die
Em D Am B
I wish you felt the way that I still do
If only you'd never look at me the way that you do
If only you'd never look like that when I look at you
I see face like stone, eyes of ice, mouth so sweetly telling lies
I wish you felt the way that I still do, the way that I still do
C D Em B
But you don't, you don't feel anymore
C D B
You don't care anymore, it's all gone
If only you'd never pull from me the way that you do
If only you'd never pull like that when I'm with you
I feel hopeless hands helplessly pulling you back close to me
I wish you felt the way that I still do, the way that I still do
If only you'd ever speak to me the way you once did
Look at me the way you once did, pull to me the way you once did
But you don't, you don't feel anymore
You don't care anymore, it's all gone, it's all gone

i think i've reached that point
where giving up and going on
are both the same dead end to me
are both the same old song
i think i've reached that point
where every wish has come true
and tired disguised oblivion
is everything i do
please stop loving me
please stop loving me
i am none of these things
i think i've reached that point
where all the things you have to say
and hopes for something more from me
are just games to pass the time away
please stop loving me
please stop loving me
i am none of these things
i think i've reached that point
where every word that you write
of every blood dark sea
and every soul black night
and every dream you dream me in
and every perfect free from sin
and burning eyes
and hearts on fire
are just the same old song
please stop loving me
please stop loving me
i am none of these things
i am none of these things
