G Am C G G Am C G
[Verse 1]
G
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Am
Trying to get up that great big hill
C G
Of hope for a destination
G
I realized quickly when I knew I should
Am
That the world was made of this brotherhood
C G
Of man, for whatever that means
[Pre-Chorus]
G
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Am
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
C G
and I - I am feeling a little peculiar
G
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
Am
and I take a deep breath and I get real high and
C G
I scream at the top of my lungs "What's going on?"
[Chorus]
G Am
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
C G
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
G Am
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
C G
I said "Hey, what's going on?"

And I try, oh my God do I try
C G
I try all the time, in this institution
G Am
And I pray, oh my god do I pray
C
I pray every single day
G
For a revolution
[Pre-Chorus]
G
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Am
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
C G
and I - I am feeling a little peculiar
G
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
Am
and I take a deep breath and I get real high and
C G
I scream at the top of my lungs "What's going on?"
[Chorus]
G Am
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"

I said "Hey, what's going on?"

And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"

I said "Hey, what's going on?"

Hate Me *Artist: Blue October[Verse 1]
G
I have to block out thoughts of you so I don’t lose my head
Em
They crawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
C
Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I’m alone
Am
Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home
G
There's a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain
Em
An ounce of peace is all I want for you; will you never call again?
C
And will you never say that you love me just to put it in my face?
Am
And will you never try to reach me; It is I that wanted space
[Chorus]
G
Hate me today
Em
Hate me tomorrow
C D Em
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
G
Hate me in ways
Em
Yeah ways hard to swallow
C D G
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
[Verse 2]
G
I’m sober now for 3 whole months it’s one accomplishment that you helped me with
Em
The one thing that always tore us apart is the one thing I won’t touch again
C
In my sick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night
Am
While I was busy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight
G
You never doubted my warped opinions on things like suicidal hate
Em
You made me compliment myself when it was way too hard to take
C
So I’ll drive so fucking far away that I never cross your mind
Am
And do whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind
[Chorus]
G
Hate me today
Em
Hate me tomorrow
C D Em
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
G
Hate me in ways
Em
Yeah ways hard to swallow
C D G
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
[Bridge]
Am7 D
And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
G Em
Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made
Am7 D
And like a baby boy I never was a man
G Em
Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
Am7 D
And then I fell down yelling ‘Make it go away!’
G Em
Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be
Am7 D
And then she whispered ‘How can you do this to me?’
[Chorus]
G
Hate me today
Em
Hate me tomorrow
C D Em
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
G
Hate me in ways
Em
Yeah ways hard to swallow
C D G
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
Em
For you
C D
For you
G
For you

Ghost Riders in the SkyArtist: Cash, JohnnyCapo on 1st fret.
[Verse 1]
Am C
An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day
Am C
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
Am
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw
F Dm Am
A-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw
[Chorus]
Am C
Yippie yi Ohhhhh
C Am
Yippie yi yaaaaay
F Dm Am
Ghost Riders in the sky
[Verse 2]
Am C
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
Am C
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel
Am
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
F Dm Am
For he saw the Riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry
[Chorus]
Am C
Yippie yi Ohhhhh
C Am
Yippie yi yaaaaay
F Dm Am
Ghost Riders in the sky
Am Am C C C C
Am Am C C C C
Am Am Am Am
F F F F
Am Am Am Am
[Verse 3]
Am C
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat
Am C
He's riding hard to catch that herd, but he ain't caught 'em yet
Am
'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky
F
On horses snorting fire
Dm Am
As they ride on hear their cry
[Verse 4]
Am C
As the riders loped on by him he heard one call his name
Am C
If you want to save your soul from Hell a-riding on our range
Am
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride
F Dm Am
Trying to catch the Devil's herd, across these endless skies
[Chorus]
Am C
Yippie yi Ohhhhh
C Am
Yippie yi Yaaaaay

And the violence caused such silence, who are we mistaken

But you see it's not me, it's not my family

In your head, in your head, they are fighting

City of New OrleansArtist: Guthrie, ArloCapo VI
[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C G C
Riding on the City of New Orleans
Am F C G
Illinois Central, Monday morning rail
C G C
Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
Am G C
Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail.
Am Em
All along the south bound odyssey, the train pulls out of Kenkakee
G D
Rolls along past houses, farms and fields
Am Em
Passing towns that have no name, freight yards full of old black men
G G7 C
And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles.
[Chorus]
F G C
Good morning America, how are you?
Am F C
Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son.
G7 C G Am D7
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
A# F G C
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.
[Verse 2]
C G C
Dealing card games with the old men in the club car
Am F C G
Penny a point, ain't no one keeping score
C G C
Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle
Am G C
Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor
Am Em
And the sons of Pullman porters and the sons of engineers
G D
Ride their fathers' magic carpets made of steel
Am Em
Mothers with their babes asleep, rockin' to the gentle beat
G G7 C
And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel.
[Chorus]
F G C
Good morning America, how are you?
Am F C
Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son.
G7 C G Am D7
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
A# F G C
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.
[Verse 3]
C G C
Night time on the City of New Orleans
Am F C G
Changing cars in Memphis, Tennessee
C G C
Halfway home, we'll be there by morning
Am G C
through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea.
Am Em
But all the towns and people seem to fade into a bad dream
G D
And the steel rail still ain't heard the news
Am Em
The conductor sings his songs again, the passengers will please refrain
G G7 C
This train got the disappearing railroad blues.
[Chorus]
F G C
Good night America, how are you?
Am F C
Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son.
G7 C G Am D7
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
A# F G C
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.

Even back in high school, wanted to see him in the can
E D
Jan got married at fourteen to a racketeer named Bill
A E
Made secret plans with the Monkey Man from a mansion on the hill
E D
It was out on Thunder Road, Tweeter at the wheel
A E
Pulled into paradise, you could hear the tires squeal

It was Jan who'd told him many times "It was you to me who'd taught:
A E
In Kingston everything's legal as long as you don't get caught"

When the walls came down

She took the gun out of the drawer, and said "It's best that you don't know"
E D
An ambulance rolled up, State Trooper close behind

Tweeter took his gun away and messed up his mind

[Verse 3]
E D
The town of Jersey City is quieting down again
A E
I'm sitting in a gambling club called The Lion's Den
E D
The TV set is blown up, every bit of it is gone
A E
Ever since the night when they showed that the Monkey Man was on
E D
Maybe I'll go to Florida, get myself some sun
A E
There ain't no more opportunity here and everything's been done
E D
Sometimes I think of Tweeter, sometimes I think of Jan
A E
Sometimes I don't think about nothin' but the Monkey Man
[Chorus]
E
When the walls came down
D
All the way to hell
A
Never saw them when they standin
E
Never saw them when they fell

HighwaymanArtist: HighwaymenCapo II
[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
(Willie Nelson)
Am G F Am
I was a highwayman, along the coach roads I did ride
G F G
Sword and pistol by my side
Dm Am G F
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Dm Am G F
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
Am G F G C
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty five
Am F G
But I am still alive
[Verse 2]
(Kris Kristofferson)
Am G F Am
I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide
G F G
With the sea I did abide
Dm Am G F
I sailed a schooner round the horn of Mexico
Dm Am G F
I went aloft and furled the main sail in a blow
Am G F G C
And when the yards broke off they say that I got killed
Am F G
But I am living still
[Verse 3]
(Waylon Jennings)
Am G F Am
I was a dam builder, across a river deep and wide
G F G
Where steel and water did collide
Dm Am G F
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
Dm Am G F
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
Am G F G C
They buried me in that gray tomb that knows no sound
Am F G
But I am still around
[Bridge]
(All)
C C/B Am G F C/E
I'll always be around, and around, and around, and around, and around...
Dm F G C
[Verse 4]
(Johnny Cash)
Am G F Am
I'll fly a starship across the universe divide
G F G
And when I reach the other side
Dm Am G F
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Dm Am G F
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Am G F G C
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
Am F G
But I will remain
[Outro]
(All)
C C/B Am G F C/E
And I'll be back again, and again, and again, and again, and again...

Wasted Years *Artist: Iron MaidenCapo III
[VERSE 1]
Em D
From the coast of gold, across the seven seas,
Em D
I'm travelling on, far and wide,
C9 Em
But now it seems, I'm just a stranger to myself,
D C9
And all the things I sometimes do, it isn't me but someone else.
Em D
I close my eyes, and think of home,
Em D
Another city goes by, in the night,
C9 Em
Ain't it funny how it is, you never miss it til it's gone away,
D C9
And my heart is lying there and will be til my dying day.
[CHORUS]
G D
So understand
Em C
Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years,
G D
Face up... make your stand,
Em C
And realize you're living in the golden years.
[VERSE 2]
Too much time on my hands, I got you on my mind,
Can't ease this pain, so easily,
When you can't find the words to say, it's hard to make it through another day,
And it makes me wanna cry, and throw my hands up to the sky.
[CHORUS]
So understand
Don't waste your time always searching for those wasted years,
Face up... make your stand,
And realise you're living in the golden years.

Going to CaliforniaArtist: Led ZeppelinD
G
Spent my days with a woman unkind,
D
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
G
Made up my mind to make a new start,
D
Going to california with an aching in my heart.
G
Someone told me theres a girl out there
D
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.
[Instrumental]
F G D x 2
G
Took my chances on a big jet plane,
D
Never let them tell you that theyre all the same.
G
The sea was red and the sky was grey,
D
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
G
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
D
As the children of the sun began to awake.
Dm
Seems that the wrath of the gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
A7 A
I think I might be sinking.
Dm
Throw me a line if I reach it in time
Ill meet you up there where the path
A7 A
Runs straight and high.
D
G
To find a queen without a king;
D
They say she plays guitar and cries as she sings.
G
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
D
Tryin to find a woman whos never, never, never been born.
G
Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
D
Telling myself its not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.

A long, long time ago,
Am C Em D
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
G D/F# Em7
And I know if I had my chance,
Am C Em C D
That I could make those people dance and maybe they'd be happy for a while
Em Am Em Am
But February made me shiver, with every paper I'd deliver
C G Am C D
Bad news on the doorstep, I couldn't take one more step
G D/F# Em Am7 D
I can't remember if I cried when I read about his widowed bride
G D Em
Something touched me deep inside
C D7 G
The day the music died
[Chorus]
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em* A7* Em* D7
Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
[Verse 2]
G Am
Did you write the book of love
C Am Em D
And do you have faith in god above, if the bible tells you so?
G D/F# Em
Do you believe in rock and roll
Am7 C Em A7 D
Can music save your mortal soul and can you teach me how to dance real slow?
Em* D* Em* D*
Well I know that you're in love with him 'cuz I saw you dancin' in the gym
C G A7 C D7
You both kicked off your shoes, man I dig those rhythm and blues
G D/F# Em Am C
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck with a pink carnation and a pickup truck
G D/F# Em C D7 G C G
But I knew I was out of luck the day the music died, I started singin'
[Chorus]
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie

And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye

Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
[Verse 3]
G Am
Now for ten years we've been on our own,
C Am Em D
and moss grows fat on a rolling stone but that's not how it used to be
G D/F# Em
When the jester sang for the king and queen
Am7 C Em A7 D
in a coat he borrowed from James Dean in a voice that came from you and me
Em* D* Em* D*
And while the king was looking down, the jester stole his thorny crown
C G A7 C D7
The courtroom was adjourned, no verdict was returned
G D/F# Em Am C
And while Lenin read a book on Marx, the quartet practiced in the park
G D/F# Em C D7 G C G
And we sang dirges in the dark the day the music died, we were singin'
[Chorus]
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie

Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
[Verse 4]
G Am
Helter skelter in a summer swelter
C Am Em D
the birds flew off with a fallout shelter, eight miles high and fallin' fast
G D/F# Em
It landed foul on the grass
Am7 C Em A7 D
the players tried for a forward pass, with the jester on the sidelines in a cast
Em* D* Em* D*
Now at halftime there was sweet perfume, while sergeants played a marching tune
C G A7 C D7
We all got up to dance, but we never got the chance
G D/F# Em Am C
'Cuz the players tried to take the field, the marching band refused to yield
G D/F# Em C D7 G C G
Do you recall what was the feel the day the music died, we started singin'
[Chorus]
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie

Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em* A7* Em* D7
Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
[Verse 5]
G Am
And there we were all in one place,
C Am Em D
a generation lost in space, with no time left to start again
G D/F# Em Am7 C
So come on Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack Flash sat on a candle
Em A7 D
stick, 'cuz fire is the devil's only friend
Em* D* Em* D*
And as I watched him on the stage, my hands were clenched in fists of rage
C G A7 C D7
No angel born in Hell could break that Satan's spell
G D/F# Em Am C
And as the flames climbed high into the night to light the sacrificial rite
G D/F# Em C D7 G C G
I saw Satan laughing with delight the day the music died, he was singin'
[Chorus]
G C G D
So bye, bye Miss American Pie

And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye

Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die
[Verse 6]
G D/F# Em
I met a girl who sang the blues
Am C Em D
And I asked her for some happy news, but she just smiled and turned away
G D/F# Em
I went down to the sacred store
Am C Em C
Where I'd heard the music years before, but the man there said the music
D
wouldn't play
Em* Am* Em* Am*
But in the streets the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poets dreamed
C G Am C D
But not a word was spoken, the church bells all were broken
G D/F# Em Am7 C D7
And the three men I admire most, the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost
G D/F# Em Am7 D7 G
They caught the last train for the coast the day the music died,
N.C.
And they were singin'
[Chorus]

Let It GoArtist: Menzel, Idina[Verse]
Em C
The snow glows white on the mountain tonight

Not a footprint to be seen

Let it go, let it go

SnowbirdArtist: Murray, AnnCapo II
INTRO: G Em Am C D7 G
#1.
G Em Am
Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean,
D D7 G
the unborn grass lies waiting for it's coat to turn to green.
G Em Am
The snowbird sings the song he always sings,
D D7 G
and speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring.
#2.
G Em Am
When I was young, my heart was young then, too,
D D7 G
anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do.
G Em Am
But now I feel such emptiness within..
D D7 G
for the thing that I want most in life is the thing that I can't win.
CHORUS:
G Em Am
Spread your tiny wings and fly away,
D D7 G
and take the snow back with you where it came from on that day.
G Em Am
The one I love forever is untrue,
D D7 G
and if I could, you know that I would fly away with you.
#3.
G Em Am
The breeze along the river seems to say,
D D7 G
that he'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay.
G Em Am
So, little snowbird, take me with you when you go,
D D7 G
to that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow.
CHORUS:
G Em Am
Spread your tiny wings and fly away,
D D7 G
and take the snow back with you where it came from on that day.
G Em Am
The one I love forever is untrue,
D D7 G
and if I could, you know that I would fly away with you.
OUTRO:
D C Am G
Yeah, if I could you know that I would fly.y.y.y...a..way with you.

An island of the universe

Last time I talked to you,
G
you were lonely and out of place.
Em
You were looking down on me,

lost out in space.
Laid underneath the stars,
strung out and feeling brave.
Watch the riddles glow,
watch them float away.
Em G
Down here in the atmosphere,
garbage and city lights,
you gotta save your tired soul,
you gotta save our lives.
Turn on the radio,
to find you on sattellite,
I'm waiting for the sky to fall,
I'm waiting for a sign.

All we are is all so far.
[Chorus]

You're falling back to me,

the star that I can't see.

You're falling out of reach,

I know you're out there,
somewhere out there.

Hope you remember me,
when you're homesick and need a change.
I miss your purple hair,

on a bed of nails awake.
I'm praying that you don't burn out,
or fade away.

Hey there Delilah, What’s it like in New York City?
C Em
I’m a thousand miles away, But girl tonight you look so pretty,
Am F G Am
Yes you do, Time Square can’t shine as bright as you,
G
I swear it’s true.
C Em
Hey there Delilah, Don’t you worry about the distance,

I’m right there if you get lonely, Give this song another listen,
Am F G Am
Close your eyes, Listen to my voice it’s my disguise,
G
I’m by your side.
[Chorus]

Oh it’s what you do to me, Oh it’s what you do to me,
C Am C Am
Oh it’s what you do to me, Oh it’s what you do to me,

Hey there Delilah, I know times are getting hard,

But just believe me girl some day, I'll pay the bills with this guitar,
Am F G Am
We'll have it good, We'll have the life we knew we would,
G
My word is good.
C Em
Hey there Delilah, I’ve got so much left to say,

If every simple song I wrote to you, Would take your breath away,

I’d write it all, Even more in love with me you’d fall,

We’d have it all.
[Chorus]

Oh it’s what you do to me, Oh it’s what you do to me,
C Am C Am G

F G
A thousand miles seems pretty far, But they’ve got planes and trains and cars,
C Am
I’d walk to you if I had no other way
F G
Our friends would all make fun of us, And we'll just laugh along because,
C Am
We know that none of them have felt this way,
F G
Delilah I can promise you, That by the time that we get through,
Am G
The world will never ever be the same, And you’re to blame.
[Verse 3]
C Em
Hey there Delilah you be good, And don’t you miss me,
C Em
Two more years and you’ll be done with school, And I'll be making history,
Am F G Am
Like I do, You’ll know it's all because of you,
F G Am
We can do whatever we want to,
F G Am G
Hey there Delilah here's to you, This one’s for you.

Oh it’s what you do to me, Oh it’s what you do to me,

Oh it’s what you do to me, Oh it’s what you do to me,

That I looked from the citadel down to the narrows and asked what it's coming to

And the vision that was planted in my brain
C/B Am
Still remains
C G Am
Within the sound of silence.
[Verse 2]
G
In restless dreams I walked alone
Am
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
F C
'neath the halo of a street lamp,
F C
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
F C
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
C/B Am
That split the night
C G Am
And touched the sound of silence.
[Verse 3]
G
And in the naked light I saw
Am
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
F C
People talking without speaking,
F C
People hearing without listening,
F C
People writing songs that voices never share
C/B Am
And no one dare
C G Am
Disturb the sound of silence.
[Verse 4]
G
Fools said I, you do not know
Am
Silence like a cancer grows.
F C
Hear my words that I might teach you,
F C
Take my arms that I might reach you.
F C C/B Am
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
C
And echoed
G Am
In the wells of silence
[Verse 5]
G
And the people bowed and prayed
Am
To the neon God they made.
F C
And the sign flashed out its warning,
F C
In the words that it was forming.
F
And the sign said, the words of the prophets
C
Are written on the subway walls
C C/B Am
And tenement halls.
C G Am
And whisper'd in the sounds of silence.

In the quiet of the railway station, runnin' scared.

Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters,

Am
If you take a step towards me
You will take my breath away
F Am
So I'll keep you close and keep my secret safe
Am
No one else has ever loved me
No one else has ever tried
F Am
I never understood how much I could take
G
Then I saw the worst was over
Am
When I layed my eyes on you
G Am
It was all that I could do to know my place
G
Out of all the vast illusions
Am
Out of all the dreams come true
G Am
I was gone until I finally saw your face
[Chorus]

If you cry out for more

If you reach out for me
Am F
I will run into the storm
C G
Just to keep you here with me
Am F
I have gone beyond my years
C G
I wasted half my life
Am F
But I found it all in you
C
Did I save you?
G F (x2) G
'Cause I know you saved me too
[Verse 2]
Am
Let me take a step towards you
Let me feel you in my hands
F Am
Let me cross this line and show you where it leads
Am
There's a darkness down inside me
That I know we'll both enjoy
F Am
And it's screaming from within to set it free
G
I have left this bloodied nightmare
Am
In my wake but I don't side
G Am
All I want is deviation by design
G
Out of all the past confusion
Am
Out of all the common spite
G Am
Just tell me I am yours 'cause you are mine
[Chorus]

If you cry out for more

If you reach out for me

I will run into the storm

Just to keep you here with me

[Verse 2]
I see a girl in the night
With a baby in her hand
Under an old street light
Near a garbage can
Now she puts the kid away and she's gone to get a hit
She hates her life and what she's done to it
That's one more kid that will never go to school
Never get to fall in love never get to be cool
[Chorus]
