On a Plate
02:25
|
|||
(D G, A D)
You're not my type
Go sit outside
In the shade, or in the sun
I don't care be gone
(D G, G A, A Bm, Bm G, G E7, E7 Am)
I know you want
My head on a plate
But you'll have to wait
You'll have to wait
(D G, A D)
The thunder rolls by
And I wonder why
Cuz I did not ask
For it to pass
And this world is mine
And I think I'm doing fine
For now, for now
If I get bored, I'll move around

Within The Shade

(Cm G7)
You needed me to protect you, girl
You needed me to protect your world
(Eb Gm/D Fm/C Bb7)
(Cm G7)
No fruit falls far from its tree
That's as true of you as it is of me
We're all hoping to be taken away
So we won't die within the shade
(Eb Gm/D Fm/C Bb7)
(Cm G7)
You needed me to protect you, girl
You needed me to protect your world
(Eb Gm/D Fm/C Bb7, Eb)

Home at Night
02:04
|
|||
(A A D A E)
I
realize
that I'm why
you don't come home
at night
(A D A D A D A E)
It's not like I
mess around and I
I'd never ever
knock you down I'm just
trying and trying to
do my best to
pick up this
mess
(G C A, G C A, G C A, G C E)
Another day of letting you down
Another day of sitting around
Another day of letting you down
And down and down, down, down, down

It's Dumb, I'm Dumb
01:21
|
|||
(D, C G)
Rules are made to be broken
We'll overturn what's not working
It's dumb, I'm dumb
I'll cross over to the dark side
I might even commit a crime
I'm dumb. It's dumb
(Em A)
(D, C G)
Hop up on my motorbike
It's gonna be a wild ride
It's dumb, I'm dumb
Revenge, revolt, outrageous shock
The whirlybird lands on a rock
It's dumb, I'm dumb
It's dumb, I'm dumb
It's dumb, I'm dumb

(D7 G7 D7 A7)
a musician, an artist
the writer of your dreams
if you can think it, you can do it
at least that's how it seems
(D Bm)
the cottonwood
blows gently through the sky
if you don't go low, go high
(D7 G7 D7 A7)
striving for perfection
or at least something great
if my vision's mediocre
it'd squash me like a grape
(D Bm)
a lazy, hazy summer daisy
reaching for the sky
if you don't go low, go high
go high, high
if you don't go low, go high
(D7 G7 D7 A7)
(D Bm)
she whistles herself to sleep
til the final sound's a sigh
if you don't go low, go high
go high, high
if you don't go low, go high

My Little Ladybug
03:40
|
|||
(G D9/F#)
we met in the sunshine
not long after the rain
around the corner near the grapevine
neither with a word to say
but there is no doubt in our minds
this is true unspoken love
(Em C)
love at first sight
(C11 G)
my little ladybug
(G Em A7 C)
(G D9/F#)
we meet in the rosebush
a million times every day
we meet in comfort
immediately after the pain
your hand in my hand
it fits like a glove
(Em C)
try to draw and keep you near me
(C11 G)
my little ladybug
(G Em A7 C)
(G D9/F#)
in order to be more appealing
i've sacrificed myself
i've been so focused on your feelings
i've though about nothing else
so here i am, but who am i?
i need to sever ties, my love
(Em C)
fly away far away
(C11 G)
my little ladybug
(G Em A7 C)

Grasshopping

|

(Dm C)
I go grasshopping
I'll be backpacking
Tumbleweeding
Along
(G G# Am)
I'm wandering around and around
I'm wandering around and around
Around and around and around
Don't tie me down
(Dm C)
There is no boredom
For a pilgrim
Who's just hiking
Along
(G G# Am)
Wandering around and around
Wandering around and around
Around and around and around
Don't tie me down
(Bb C)
(Dm C)
Well is this aimless
At the time ambitious
Now I'm afraid I've
Become a misfit
(G G# Am)
Wandering around and around
Wandering around and around
Around and around and around
Don't tie me down

(3/4 D A)
Where there's a will
There's a way
Got a dragon
For me to slay
(4/4 G A G A)
I need my next
(3/4 D A)
Fight, fight, fight, fight
(4/4 G A G A)
Better to be
Brave and strong (wrong)
Than be
Afraid and
(3/4 D A)
Right, right, fight, fight

Let's Meet Up
02:38
|

(Em F#7 Bm Bm)
Let's meet up by the pond
Baseball jerseys on
Flip flops from the lawn
Mustard on my dog
(G/A A7 Em Em, A7 Em A7 Em)
(Em F#7 Bm Bm)
I'm a cricket too
Just like you and you and you
Singing the same song
Trying to belong
Sha-na-na-na-na
I'm a regular guy
Regular and nothing more
Can I catch the eye
Of the girl next door
(G/A A7 Em Em, A7 Em A7 Em)
(Em F#7 Bm Bm)
Let's meet up anywhere
I can't pretend to care
That anywhere won't do
Regular me and you

(G D C Em D G)
(C G C D Dsus4)
I can make the sun come out then
set and rise again
Make the whole world shout and
see themselves as friends
I can turn the sand to soil and
grow a thousand flowers
Have 'em cut and wrapped in foil
all in a couple hours
(G D C Em D G)
But I'm not sure what you need anymore
No I'm not sure what you need anymore
(G D G C)
I've been thinking about
all the things I can do
I'd do each and every
one for you
(G D C Em D G)
But I'm not sure what you need anymore
No I'm not sure what you need anymore
No no no, no no no
No no no, no no no
(G C Am7 Em)
You know it's true
I can make anybody's dreams come true
(G D C Em D G)
But I'm not sure what you need anymore
No I'm not sure what you need anymore

Only Some Can Come
01:38
|
|||
(E G C A F A F)
Only some can come
Only some can come
(reversed E G, not sure)
Don't even approach the hive
Very few come out alive
Hidden underneath the slide
Burs looking to hitch a ride
(E G C A F A F)
Only some can come
Only some can come
(reversed E G, not sure)
Welcome to my club
I'll watch from up above
No girls are allowed
Bow down to the crown
(E G C A F A F)
Only some can come

Free To Be
03:23
|
|||
(4/4 Bm G7)
Everything is gonna be just fine
All good roads they lead to paradise
Start your dive, they'll fill the pool
Don't strike out, the count is full
Everything is gonna be just fine
(3/4 Am D G A, Am D G)
We are free to be you and me
We are free to be you and me
(4/4 Bm G7)
In my dreams it seemed so real
The seashell fort, the ice cream fields
Utopia's become unpeeled, it's gone
Mosquitoes fill the humid sky
My towel's hanging out to dry
Admit I'm wrong? I'd rather die at dawn
(3/4 Am D G A, Am D G)
We are free to be you and me
We are free to be you and me
(4/4 D7 G D7)
You remind me of you
