A Team
Ed Sheeran
Intro: [A] [F#m] [D] [A]
[A]White lips, pale face, Breathing in snow[F#m] flakes,
Burnt [D] lungs sour [A] taste.
[A]Light's gone, day's end, Struggling to pay [F#m]rent,
Long [D]nights, strange [A] men.
Chorus:
[Bm7]And they say she's in the Class [D] A Team,
Stuck in her [A]day dream,
Been this way since [E]18, but lately her [Bm7] face seems
Slowly sinking, [D]wasting,
Crumbling like [A]pastries,
And they scream,
[E]The worst things in life come free to us,
Cos we're [F#m] just under the [D]upperhand,
[A]And go mad for a couple of grams,
[F#m] She don't want to [D]go out [A] side tonight,
And in [F#m]a pipe she flies to the [D] motherland,
Or [A] sells love to another man,
[F#m] It's too col[D]d outside,
[A] For angels to [F#m] fly,
[E] Angels to [F#m] fly,
[A] Ripped gloves, raincoat, Tried to swim and stay a-[F#m]float,
Dry [D] house, wet [A] clothes.
Loose change, bank notes, Weary-eyed, dry [F#m]throat,
Call [D] girl, no [A] phone.
Chorus:
[Bm7]An angel will [D]die.
Bridge:
[A]Covered in wh[E]ite, [F#m]Closed eye,
And h[D]oping for a b[A]etter life,
[Bm]This time, we'll fade out t[D]onight, [A]Straight down the li[F#m]ne.
Chorus:
[D]To fly, [F#m]fly,
[A]Angels to[F#m] fly, to [E] fly, to [F#m] fly,
[A]Angels to [F#m]die.

Verse 1:
A
You can tell the world, You never was my girl
E7
You can burn my clothes when I am gone
Or you can tell your friends, Just what a fool I've been
A
And laugh and joke about me on the phone
Verse 2:
A
You can tell my arms, Go back into the farm
E7
You can tell my feet to hit the floor
Or you can tell my lips, To tell my fingertips
A
They won't be reaching out for you no more
|[Chorus]
| A
|But don't tell my heart, My achy breaky heart
| E7
|I just don't think it'd understand
|And if you tell my heart, My achy breaky heart

|He might blow up and kill this man

Verse 3:

You can tell your maw, I moved to Arkansas
E7
You can tell your dog that bit my leg
Or tell your brother Cliff, Whose fist can tell my lip
A
He never really liked me anyway
Verse 4:
A
Go tell your aunt Louise, Tell anything you please
E7
Myself already knows I'm not okay
Or you can tell my eye, Watch out for my mind
A
It might be walkin' out on me today
[Chorus]

But don't tell my heart, My achy breaky heart
I just don't think it'd understand

As Time Goes By
Louis Armstrong
You [Dm7] must remember [G7] this
[Gm6] A kiss is just a [Fdim] kiss
[C] A sigh is just a [Dm7] sigh [Cdim] [Em]
The [D7] fundamental things a[G7]pply

They [Gm6] still say ‘ I love [Fdim] you’
On [C] that you can [Dm7] rely [Cdim] [Em]
No [D7] matter what the future [G7] brings
As [Dm7] time [G7] goes [C] by
[Fdim] [C] [C7]
[F] Moonlight and love songs [A7] never out of date
[Dm] Hearts full of passion, [Cdim] jealousy and hate
[Am] Woman needs [C+] man and [Am7] man must have his [D7] mate
That [G7] no one [Gdim] can [G7] deny
It’s [Dm7] still the same old [G7] story
A [Gm6] fight for love and [Fdim] glory
[C] A case of do or [Dm7] die [Cdim] [Em]
The [D7] world will always welcome [G7] lovers
As [Dm7] time [G] goes [C] by [Fdim] [C]

Bachelor Boy
Cliff Richard
[D] When I was young my [G] father said,
[A] 'Son, I have something to [D] say.'
And what he told me I'll [G] never forget un[A]til my dying [D] day. He [A7] said
[D] 'Son, you are a [G] bachelor boy, and [A] that's the way to [D] stay.
Son, you'll be a [G] bachelor boy [A] un[A]til your dying [D] day.'
[D] When I was sixteen I [G] fell in love with a [A] girl as sweet as [D] can be.
But I remembered [G] just in time, what [A] daddy said to [D] me. He said
[D] 'Son, you are a [G] bachelor boy, and [A] that's the way to [D] stay.
Son, you'll be a [G] bachelor boy [A] un[A]til your dying [D] day.'
[D] As time goes by I [G] probably will meet a [A] girl and fall in [D] love.
[D] Then I'll get married, have a [G] wife and a child,
and [A] they'll be my turtle [D] doves. But [A7] until [D] then
[D] 'Son, you are a [G] bachelor boy, and [A] that's the way to [D] stay.
Son, you'll be a [G] bachelor boy [A] un[A]til your dying [D] day.'
But until then I'll be a [G] bachelor boy, [A] that's the way I'll [D] stay
Happy to be a [G] bachelor boy, un[A]til my dying [D] day,
Yeah [D] I'll be a [G] bachelor boy,
[A] that's the way I'll [D] stay.
Happy to be a [G] bachelor boy, un[A]til my dying [D] day.

From the [G] stars [E7] [Am]

[Bm7] Feeling the [Em7] rapture [G7] grow
[Cmaj7] Like a flame burning [Cm7] brightly
[Bm7] But when she [A#dim] left [Am] gone was the [D7] glow of
[G] Blue [Bm7] Velvet [Bm7] [Bbm7] [Am]
But in my [D7^2] heart there'll always [G] be [E7]

Both Sides Now - Joni Mitchell
[G] Bows and [Am] flows of [C] angel [G] hair,
And ice cream [Bm] castles [C] in the [G] air,
And feather [C] canyons [Am] everywhere;
I‘ve looked at clouds that [D] way.
But [G] now they [Am] only [C] block the [G] sun,
They rain and [Bm] snow on [C] every[G]one,
So many [C] things I [Am] would have done,
but clouds got in the [D] way.
I‘ve [G] looked at [Am] clouds from [C] both sides [G] now,
From [C] up and [G] down, and [C] still some[G]how
It‘s [Bm] cloud‘s ill[C]usions [G] I recall
I [C] really don‘t know [D] clouds [D7-alt] [D] at [G] all. [Am] [G] [D]
[G] Moons and [Am] Junes and [C] Ferris [G] wheels,
The dizzy [Bm] dancing [C] way you [G] feel
When every [C] fairy [Am] tale comes real;
I‘ve looked at love that [D] way.
But [G] now it‘s [Am] just a[C]nother [G] show,
You leave them [Bm] laughing [C] when you [G] go,
And if you [C] care don‘t [Am] let them know,
don‘t give yourself a[D]way.
I‘ve [G] looked at [Am] love from [C] both sides [G] now,
From [C] give and [G] take, and [C] still some[G]how
It‘s [Bm] love‘s ill[C]usions [G] I recall
I [C] really don‘t know [D] love [D7^2] [D] at [G] all. [Am] [G] [D]
[G] Tears and [Am] fears and [C] feeling [G] proud,
To say “I [Bm] love you” [C] right out [G] loud;
Dreams and [C] schemes and [Am] circus crowds;
I‘ve looked at life that [D] way.
But [G] now old [Am] friends are [C] acting [G] strange,
They shake their [Bm] heads; they [C] say I‘ve [G] changed
But something‘s [C] lost and [Am] something‘s gained in living every [D] day
I‘ve [G] looked at [Am] life from [C] both sides [G] now,
From [C] win and [G] lose, and [C] still some[G]how
It‘s [Bm] life‘s ill[C]usions [G] I recall
I [C] really don‘t know [G] life [Am] [D] at [D7] [G] all.
Bright Blue Rose
I [D] skimmed across black water,[G]without once sub-merging,
[D]Onto the banks of an urban[A] morning,
That[D] hungers the first light[G] much,much more than the[D] mountains[A] ever[D] do,
And [D]she like the ghost beside me,[G]goes down with the ease of a dolphin,
[D]And emerges un[A]learned un shamed unharmed,
For[D] she is the perfect creature,a[G] natural in every feature,
And[D] I am the geek with the[A] alchemist[D] stone.
For[Em] all of[A] you must dis[D]cover, [Em] for all who[A] seek to under[D]stand,
[G] For having[A] left the path of[D] others, [C] you'll find a [G] very special[A] hand.
And [D] it is a holy thing and [G] it is a precious time,
And [D] it is the only [A] way,
For[D]get-me-nots among the snow,it's [G] always been and so it goes,
To [D] ponder his death and his [A] life eternal[D] ly.
For[Em] all of[A] you must dis[D]cover, [Em] for all who[A] seek to under[D]stand,

And [D] it is a holy thing and [G] it is a precious time,

One [D] bright blue rose out-lives all those, two [G] thousand years and so it goes,
To [D] ponder his death and his [A] life eternal[D]ly.

Coward Of The County - Kenny Rogers
Intro: [A] [A]
Verse 1:
A D A
Everyone considered him the coward of the county
E7
He'd never stood one single time to prove the county wrong.
A D A
His mama named him Tommy, but folks just called him yellow,
E7 A
Something always told me they were reading Tommy wrong.
Verse 2:
A D A
He was only ten years old when his daddy died in prison;
E7
I took care of Tommy, 'cause he was my brother's son.
A D A
I still recall the final words my brother said to Tommy,
E7 A
"Son my life is over, but yours has just begun".
|Chorus:
|A D A
| "Promise me, son, not to do the things I've done
|D A E7
| Walk away from trouble if you can.
|A D A
| It won't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek
|A D E7
| I hope you're old enough to understand,
|E7 A
| Son, you don't have to fight to be a man."
Verse 3:
A D A
There's someone for everyone, and Tommy's love was Becky.
A E7
In her arms he didn't have to prove he was a man.
A D A
One day while he was working, the Gatlin boys came calling
E7 A
They took turns at Becky, (n' there was three of them).
Verse 4:
A D
Tommy opened up the door, and saw Becky crying. [A]
E7
The torn dress, the shattered look was more than he could stand.
A D A
He reached above the fireplace, and took down his daddy's picture.
E7 A
As the tears fell on his daddy's face, he heard these words again
[Chorus]
Verse 5:
A D A
The Gatlin boys just laughed at him when he walked into the barroom;
E7
One of them got up and met him half way cross the floor.
A D A
When Tommy turned around they said, "Hey look! old yeller's leaving,"
E7 A
But you could've heard a pin drop when Tommy stopped and locked the door.
Verse 6:
A D A
Twenty years of crawling were bottled up inside him.
E7
He wasn't holding nothing back - he let 'em have it all.
A D A
When Tommy left the bar room, not a Gatlin boy was standing.
A E7 A
He said, "This one's for Becky, as he watched the last one fall. (And I heard him say,)
|Chorus:
|A D A
| "I promised you, Dad, not to do the things you've done
|D A E7
| I walk away from trouble when I can
| A D A
|Now please don't think I'm weak, I didn't turn the other cheek,
|A D E7
| And papa, I sure hope you understand
| E7 A
|Sometimes you gotta fight when you're a man".

[A7] Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my [D] side
[D] Cradled by two loving arms [Em] that I'll die for

It's [C] knowing that your [Em] door is always [C] open

And it's [C] knowing I'm not [Em] shackled
by for[C]gotten words and [Em] bonds
and the [C] ink stains that have [Em] dried upon some [Dm] line
That keeps you in the backroads by the rivers of my memory
that keeps you ever [G] gentle on my [C] mind [Em] [C] [Em]
It's [C] not clinging to the [Em] rocks and ivy [C] planted
on their [Em] columns now that [Dm] binds me
Or something that somebody said
Because they think we [G] fit together [C] walkin' [Em] [C] [Em]
It's just [C] knowing that the [Em] world will not be
[C] cursing or [Em] forgivin'
when I [C] walk along some [Em] railroad track and [Dm] find
That you're moving on the backroads by the rivers of my memory
and for hours you're just [G] gentle on my [C] mind [Em] [C] [Em]
Though the [C] wheat fields & the [Em] clothes lines
and [C] junkyards & the [Em] highways come [Dm] between us,
And some other woman's crying to her mother, '
cause she [G] turned and I was [C] gone [Em] [C] [Em]
I [C] still might run in [Em] silence, tears of [C] joy might stain my [Em] face
and the [C] summer sun might [Em] burn me 'till I'm [Dm] blind
But not to where I cannot see you walkin on the backroads
by the rivers flowing [G] gentle on my [C] mind [Em] [C] [Em]
I [C] dip my cup of [Em] soup back from the [C] gurglin' cracklin' [Em] cauldron
in some train [Dm] yard;
My beard a roughning coal pile
and a dirty hat pulled [G] low across my [C] face [Em] [C] [Em]
Through [C] cupped hands 'round a [Em] tin can I [C] pretend I hold you [Em] to
my breast and [Dm] find
That you're waving from the backroads by the rivers of my memory
ever smilin' ever [G] gentle on my [C] mind [Em] [C] [Em]

Horse With No Name
America
[Intro]
[Em] [D] x2
[Verse 1]
Em D
On the first part of the journey
Em D
I was looking at all the life
Em D
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
Em D
There were sand and hills and rings
Em D
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
Em D
And the sky with no clouds
Em D
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
Em D
But the air was full of sound
|[Chorus]
| Em D
|I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
| Em D
|It felt good to be out of the rain
| Em D
|In the desert you can remember your name
| Em D
|'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
|Em D
| La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
|Em D
| La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
[Verse 2]
Em D
After two days in the desert sun
Em D
My skin began to turn red
Em D
After three days in the desert fun
Em D
I was looking at a river bed
Em D
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Em D
Made me sad to think it was dead
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Em D
After nine days I let the horse run free
Em D
'Cause the desert had turned to sea
Em D
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
Em D
There were sand and hills and rings
Em D
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
Em D
And a perfect disguise above
Em D
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
Em D
But the humans will give no love
|[Chorus]
| Em D
|I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
| Em D
|It felt good to be out of the rain
| Em D
|In the desert you can remember your name
| Em D
|'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
|Em D
| La, la, la lala la la la, la, la

Lakes of Pontchartrain - Trad / Paul Brady
It was [G] on one [D] fine March [C] morn-[G] ing, when I [Em] bid New [D] Orleans a[G]dieu
And I took [D] the road to [C] Jackson [Em] town, my [G] fortunes to [C] renew
I [G] cursed all [D] foreign [C] money [Em], no [G]credit could I [C] gain,
Which [G] filled my [D] heart with [C] longing [Em]for The [C] lakes of [D] Pontchar-[G]train
I [G] stepped on [D] board a [C] railroad [G] car be-[Em] neath the [D] morning [G] sun.
I rode the [D] rails ‘til [C] even-[Em] ing and [G] lay me down a-[C] gain.
All [G] strangers [D] there, no [C] friends to [Em] me, ‘til a [G] dark girl towards me [C] came.
And I [G] fell in [D] love with a [C] Creole [Em] girl on the [C] lakes of [D] Pontchar-[G] train.
I [G] said "my [D] pretty [C] Creole [G] girl, My [Em] money [D] here's no [G] good,
If it weren't for the [D] alli-[C] ga-[Em] tors, I’d [G] sleep out in the [C] wood.”
“You’re [G] welcome [D] here, kind [C] stran-[Em] ger, our [G] house is very [C] plain,
But [G] we never [D] turn a [C] stranger [Em] out on the [C] lakes of [D] Pontchar-[G] train.
She [G] took me [D] to her [C] mammy’s [G] house, and [Em] treated [D] me right [G] well.
Her hair [D] upon her [C] shoulders, in [G] jet black ringlets [C] fell.
To [G] try to [D] paint her [C] beau-[Em] ty, I'm [G] sure ‘twould be in [C] vain
So [G] handsome [D] was my [C] Creole [Em] girl on the [C] lakes of [D] Pontchar-[G] train.
I [G] asked her [D] if she’d [C] marry [G] me,
She [Em] said that it [D] ne’er could [G] be,
for she had [D] got a [C] lov-[Em] er,
and [G] he was off at [C] sea
she [G] said that [D] she would [C] wait for [Em] him
and [G] true she would re[C] main
Til [G] he’d re-[D]turn to his [C] Creole [Em] girl
by the [C] lakes of [D] Pontchar-[G] train.
So [G] fare thee [D] well my [C] Creole [G] girl
I’ll [Em] never [D] see you [G] more
But I wont for[D] get your [C] kind-[Em] ness
in the [G] cottage by the [C] shore
and [G] at each [D] social [C] gather-[Em] ing
a [G] flowing glass I'll [C] drain,
and [G] drink the [D] health to my [C] Creole [Em] girl
on the [C] lakes of [D] Pontchar-[G] train.

You know that [G]faith is your foundation
Whole lot of love and a warm conversation
But [F]don't forget to pray just make it [C]strong where you be[D]long
So you can [G]live in the love of the [C]common people

(Am)
I can settle down, and be doin' just fine
Till' I (E7) hear an old train rollin' down (Am)the line
Then I hurry straight home and pack
And if I (E7) didn't go, I believe I'd blow my (Am) stack
I love you baby, but you gotta understand
When the (E7) Lord made me
He made a Ramblin' (Am) Man
Some folks might say that I’m no good
That I (E7)wouldn’t settle down if I (Am)could
But when that open road starts to callin’ me
There’s (E7) somethin’ o’er the hill that I gotta (Am)see
Sometimes it’s hard but you gotta understand
When the (E7)Lord made me He made a ramblin’ [Am] man
I love to see the towns a-passin’ by
And to (E7) ride these rails ‘neath God’s blue (Am)sky
Let me travel this land from the mountains to the sea
‘Cause (E7)that’s the life I believe He meant for (Am)me
And when I’m gone and at my grave you stand
Just say (E7) God called home your ramblin’ [Am]man

I'm [C]stuck in Folsom prison... and time keeps draggin’ [G]on
But that [D7]train keeps a rollin’... on down to San An[G]ton
When [G]I was just a baby... my mama told me son (son)
Always be a good boy... don't [G7]ever play with guns
But I [C]shot a man in Reno... just to watch him [G]die
When I [D7]hear that whistle blowin’... I hang my head and [G]cry
I [G]bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin’ coffee... and [G7]smoking big cigars
Well I [C]know I had it coming... I know I can't be [G]free
But those [D7]people keep a-movin’... and that's what tortures [G]me
Well if they'd [G]free me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it on a little [G7]farther down the line
[C]Far from Folsom prison... that's where I want to [G]stay
And I'd [D7]let that lonesome whistle... blow my blues a[G]way

She Moved Through The Fair
Traditional
[alternates G and F throughout song]
[G] My[F] young love said to[G] me
My[F] mother won't[G] mind
And my[F] father won't[G] slight you
For[F] your lack of[G] kind
And she[F] stepped away[G] from me
And[F] this she did[G] say
It[F] will not be[G] long love
Til[F] our wedding [G] day
She[F] stepped away[G] from me and she[F] moved through the[G] fair,
And[F] fondly I[G] watched her move[F] here and move[G] there,
And[F] then she went[G] homeward with[F] one star[G] awake,
As the[F] swan in the[G] evening moves[F] over the[G] lake.
The people were saying no two were e'er wed,
But one has a sorrow that never was said,
And I smiled as she passed with her goods and her gear,
And that was the last that I saw of my dear.
Last night she came to me, she came softly in
So softly she came, that her feet made no din,
And she laid her hand on me and this she did say,
"It will not be long, love, til our wedding day."

Someone to Lava
Intro: [C] [G7] [F] [C] [G7]
C G7
A long long time ago, there was a volcano.
F C G7
... Living all alone, in the middle of the sea.
C G7
He sat high above his bay, watching all the couples play,
F C G7
... and wishing that, he had someone too.
C G7 F
And from his lava came, this song of hope that he sang out-loud everyday,
C G7
for years and years.
|Chorus:
|F C
|I have a dream, I hope will come true,
| G7 C C7
|that you're here with me and I’m here with you
|F C
|I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above
| F G7 C
|will send me someone to la-va
C G7
He was singing all alone, turned his lava into stone,
F C G7
... until he was on the brink of extinction.
C G7
But little did he know that living in the sea below
F C G7
... another volcano was listening to his song.
C G7
Every day she heard his tune, her lava grew and grew
F C G7
... because she believed his song was meant for her.
C G7
Now she was so ready to meet him above the sea
F C G7
... as he sang his song for the last time.
Chorus:
C G7
Rising from the sea below stood a lovely volcano
F C G7
... looking all around but she could not see him.
C G7
He tried to sing to let her know that she was not there alone,
F C G7
... but with no la-va his song was all done.
C G7
He filled the sea with his tears watching his dreams disappear
(F)... as she remembered what his (C)song meant to (G7*)her.
Chorus: (single strums)
C G7
And they were so happy to finally meet above the sea
F C G7
... and all together now their lava grew and grew.
C G7
No longer were they alone with Belfast as their new home
F C G7
... and when you visit them, this is what they sing
F C
I have a dream, I hope will come true,
G7 C C7
that you'll grow old with me and I'll grow old with you
F C
We thank the earth, sea, the sky we thank too
F G7 C C7
I lava you
F G7 C C7
I lava you
(F)I la(G7)va (C*)you

Stealin' kisses from me on the sly

Song For Ireland by Mary Black
VERSE 1:
C G
Walking all the day
F C F G C
Near tall towers where falcons build their nests

Silver-winged they fly
Dm Am F G C
They know the call of freedom in their breasts
F G G
Saw Black Head against the sky
C Am C F G
With twisted rocks they run down to the sea

Living on your western shore, saw summer sunsets, asked for more

I stood by your Atlantic Sea, - and sang a song for I-re-land

Talking all the day
F C F G C
With true friends who try to make you stay

Watched the Galway salmon run
C Am C F G
Like silver dancing, darting in the sun

I stood by your Atlantic Sea, - and sang a song for I-re-land

Drinking all the day
F C F G C
In old pubs where fiddlers love to play

Someone touched the bow
Dm Am F G C
He played a reel which seemed so grand and gay
F G G
Stood on Dingle Beach and cast
C Am C F G
In wild foam we found Atlantic bass
CHORUS:
F G C Am C F G
Living on your western shore, saw summer sunsets, asked for more

I stood by your Atlantic Sea, - and sang a song for I-re-land

Dreaming in the night
F C F G C
I saw a land where no one had to fight

Waking in your dawn

Lying where the falcons fly
C Am C F G
They twist and turn all in your air-blue sky

Suzanne
Leonard Cohen
[F] Suzanne takes you down to her place by the river
You can [Gm] hear the boats go by you can spend the night beside her
And you [F] know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there
And she [Am] feeds you tea and oranges that come [Bb] all the way from China
And just [F] when you mean to tell her that you [Gm] have no love to give her
Then she [F] gets you on her wavelength and she [Gm] lets the river answer
That you've [F] always been her lover
And you [Am] want to travel with her and you [Bb] want to travel blind
And you [F] know that she will trust you
For you've [Gm] touched her perfect body with your [F] mind
[F] And Jesus was a sailor when He walked upon the water
And He [Gm] spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower
And [F] when He knew for certain only drowning men could see Him
He said [Am] All men will be sailors then un[Bb]til the sea shall free them
But [F] He Himself was broken long be[Gm]fore the sky would open
For[F]saken almost human. He [Gm] sank beneath your wisdom like a [F] stone
And you [Am] want to travel with him and you [Bb] want to travel blind
And you [F] think maybe you'll trust him
For he's [Gm] touched your perfect body with his [F] mind
[F] Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river
She is [Gm] wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army counters
And the [F] sun pours down like honey on our lady of the harbor
And she [Am] shows you where to look among the [Bb] garbage and the flowers
There are [F] heroes in the seaweed there are [Gm] children in the morning
They are [F] leaning out for love and they will [Gm] lean that way forever
While Su[F]zanne holds the mirror
And you [Am] want to travel with her and you [Bb] want to travel blind
And you [F] know that you will trust her
For she's [Gm] touched your perfect body with her [F] mind

The Gambler - Kenny Rogers
Intro:
[G] [G]
Verse 1:
On a [G] warm summer's evenin' on a [C] train bound for [G] nowhere,
I met up with the gambler; we were both too tired to [D] sleep.
So [G] we took turns a starin' out the [C] window at the [G] darkness
'til [C] boredom over [G] took us, [D] and he began to [G] speak.
Verse 2:
He said, [G] "Son, I've made a life out of [C] readin' people's [G] faces,
and knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their [D] eyes.
And if [G] you don't mind my sayin', I can [C] see you're out of [G] aces.
For a [C] taste of your [G] whiskey I'll [D] give you some [G] advice."
Verse 3:
So I [G] handed him my bottle and he [C] drank down my last [G] swallow.
Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a [D] light.
And the [G] night got deathly quiet, and his [C] face lost all ex[G]pression.
Said, "If you're [C] gonna play the [G] game, boy, ya gotta [D] learn to play it [G] right.
|Chorus:
|You got to [G] know when to hold 'em, [C] know when to [G] fold 'em,
|[C] know when to [G] walk away and know when to [D] run.
|You never [G] count [Am] your [G] money when you're [C] sittin' at the [G] table.
|There'll be [C] time enough for [G] countin' [D] when the dealin's [G] done.
Verse 4:
[G] Ev'ry gambler knows that the [C] secret to surv[G]ivin'
is knowin' what to throw away and knowing what to [D] keep.
'Cause [G] ev'ry hand's a winner and [C] ev'ry hand's a [G] loser,
and the [C] best that you can [G] hope for is to [D] die in your [G] sleep."
Verse 5:
And [G] when he'd finished speakin', he [C] turned back towards the [G] window,
crushed out his cigarette and faded off to [D] sleep.
And [G] somewhere in the darkness the [C] gambler, he broke [G] even.
But [C] in his final [G] words I found an [D] ace that I could [G] keep.
|Chorus x3 (second time is acapella):
|You got to [G] know when to hold 'em, [C] know when to [G] fold 'em,

Starry starry [G] night [Gsus4] [G] paint your palette [Am] blue and grey
Look out on a [C] summer's day with [D] eyes that know the darkness in my [G] soul
Shadows on the [G] hills [Gsus4] [G] sketch the trees and the [Am] daffodils
Catch the breeze and the [C] winter chills
In [D] colours on the snowy linen [G] land [C] [G]
Now I under[Am]stand [Am6] what you tried to [G] say to [Gmaj7] me [Em7]
How you suffered for you [Am] sanity [Am6] and how you tried to set them [Em] free
They would not listen they did [A] not know how [Am]
Per[Am6]haps they'll listen [G] now
Starry starry [G] night [Gsus4] [G] flaming flowers that [Am] brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in [C] violet haze re[D]flect in Vincent's eyes of china [G] blue
Colors changing [G] hue [Gsus4] [G] morning fields of [Am] amber grain
Weathered faces [C] lined in pain
Are [D] soothed beneath the artist’s loving [G] hand [C] [G]
Now I under[Am]stand [Am6] what you tried to [G] say to [Gmaj7] me [Em7]
How you suffered for you [Am] sanity [Am6] and how you tried to set them [Em] free
They would not listen they did [A] not know how [Am]
Per[Am6]haps they'll listen [G] now
For they could not [Am] love you [Am6] but still your love was [G] true [Gmaj7] [Em7]
And when no [Am] hope was left in sight on that [Cm] starry starry night
You [G] took your life as [F7] lovers often [E7] do
But I [Am] could have told you Vincent
This [C] world was never meant for one as [D] beautiful as you [G] [C] [G]
Starry starry [G] night [Gsus4] [G] portraits hung in [Am] empty halls
Frameless heads on [C ] nameless walls
With [D] eyes that watch the world and can't for[G]get
Like the stranger that you've [G] met [Gsus4] [G] the ragged man in [Am] ragged clothes
The silver thorn of [C] bloody rose lies [D] crushed and broken on the virgin [G] snow
Now I think I [Am] know [Am6] what you tried to [G] say to [Gmaj7] me [Em7]
And how you suffered for you [Am] sanity [Am6] how you tried to set them [Em] free
They would not listen they're not [A] listening still [Am]

People [C] couldn't believe what [Am] I'd become
Revolutio-[F]-naries [G] wait, For my [C] head on a silver [Am] plate
Just a puppet on a [F] lonely [G] string, Oh [C] who would ever want to be [Am] king?

The winds blew up, her bow dipped down, Oh blow, me bully boys, blow (huh)
|[Chorus]
|F C Dm Am
| Soon may the Wellerman come, to bring us sugar and tea and rum
|F C E7 Am
| One day, when the tonguin’ is done, we'll take our leave and go

She'd not been two weeks from shore, when down on her a right whale bore
Am E7 Am
The captain called all hands and swore, he'd take that whale in tow (huh)
|[Chorus]

Before the boat had hit the water, the whaaale's tail came up and caught her
Am E7 Am
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her when she dived down low (huh)
|[Chorus]

| Soon may the Wellerman come, to bring us sugar and tea and rum
|F C E7 Am
| One day, when the tonguin’ is done, we'll take our leave and go

And he belonged to the Whaleman's creed, she took that ship in tow (huh)

Am E7 Am
All boats were lost, there were only four, but still that whale did go (huh)
|[Chorus]
|F C Dm Am
| Soon may the Wellerman come, to bring us sugar and tea and rum
|F C E7 Am
| One day, when the tonguin’ is done, we'll take our leave and go
[Am] ( ... two, three, four)
Am Dm Am
As far as I've heard, the fight's still on, the line's not cut, and the whale's not gone
Am Dm Am
The Wellerman makes his regular call, to en-courage the captain, crew and all
[Chorus] (repeat and get faster each time)

Windmills of Your Mind
Noel Harrison
Intro: [Em] [B7] [Em]
Round, like a circle in a spiral, Like a wheel within a [B7] wheel
Never ending or beginning On an ever spinning [Em] reel
Like a snowball down a [E7] mountain Or a carnival bal[Am7]loon
Like a carousel that's [D7] turning, Running rings around the [Gmaj7] moon
Like a clock whose hands are [Cmaj7] sweeping Past the minutes of its [Am6] face
And the world is like an [B7] apple Whirling silently in [Bbdim] space
Like the circles that you [B7] find
In the windmills of your [Em] mind
Like a tunnel that you follow To a tunnel of its [B7] own
Down a hollow to a cavern Where the sun has never [Em] shone
Like a door that keeps revol[E7]ving In a half-forgotten [Am7] dream
Or the ripples from a [D7] pebble Someone tosses in a [Gmaj7] stream
Like a clock whose hands are [Cmaj7] sweeping
Past the minutes of its [Am6] face
And the world is like an [B7] apple Whirling silently in [Bbdim] space
Like the circles that you [B7] find
In the windmills of your [Em] mind
Keys that jingle in your pocket, Words that jangle in your [Am7] head
Why did summer go so [D7] quickly? Was it something that you [Gmaj7] said?
Lovers walk along the [G7] shore And leave their footprints in the [Cmaj7] sand
Is the sound of distant [F#7] drumming Just the fingers of your [Bm] hand?
Pictures hanging in a [E7] hallway And the fragment of a [Am] song
Half-remembered names and [D7] faces, But to whom do they be[Gmaj7]long?
When you knew that it was [Cmaj7] over, You were suddenly [Am6] aware
That the autumn leaves were [B7] turning To the colour of her [Em]hair
A circle in a spiral, A wheel within a [B7] wheel
Never ending or beginning On an ever spinning [Bbdim] reel
As the images un[Em]wind,
Like the circles that you [B7] find
In the windmills of your [Em] mind
Like the circles that you [B7] find
In the windmills of your [Em] mind

Righteous Brothers
[Verse 1]
You never [F] close your eyes any-more when I kiss your [G] lips.
And there's no [F] tenderness like before in your finger-[G] tips.
You're trying [Am] hard not to show it [Bm] baby
But [C] baby, [D] baby, I know it.
|[Chorus]
|[G] You've lost that [Am] loving feeling, [D] oh-whoa that [G] loving feeling,
|you've lost that [Am] lovin' feeling, now it's [F] gone, gone, gone, oh-whoa [G] oh
[Verse 2]
Now there's no [F] welcome look in you eyes when I reach for [G] you.
And girl you’re [F] starting to criticize little things I [G] do.
It makes me [Am] just feel like crying [Bm] baby
'cause [C] baby something [D] beautiful's dying!
|[Chorus]
|[G] You've lost that [Am] loving feeling, [D] oh-whoa that [G] loving feeling,
