I Can Change

Key: AbMedium

AbTell me a line make it easy for me

Open your arms

Dance with me until I feel all riCght

AbIt's good in the dark, good in the dark

But into the lover's light

Here comes another figCht

(Same for all verses)

So ring the alarm, ring the alarm

Bore me and hold me and cling to my arm

Here it comes, here it comes

And what you're asking me now, disastrous now

Hoping and hoping and hoping

The feeling goes away

AbNever change, never change, never change, never change

Never change, never change, never change

C# C#m (If you want)

This is why I fell in love oooh

(Same for every chorus)

Never change, never change, never change, never change

This is the time the very best time

So give me a line and take me hoooome

Take me oveeeer

But dashing the hopes dashing the hopes

And smashing the pride

The morning's got you on the ropes .. ooh

And love is a murderer , love is a murderer

But if she calls you tonight

Everything is all right

Yeah, we knoooooow

And love is a curse shoved in a hearse

Love is an open book to a verse of your bad poetry

And this is coming from me

But I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change

I can change, I can change, I can change

If it helps you fall in love

(fall in looove)

Turn on the light make it easy for me

Fill the divide fumble in the kitchen

'til it's right

What an awful sight

But there's love in your eyes

Love in your eyes , love in your eyes

But maybe that's your love of fights

All niiiiiight!

And I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change

I can change, I can change, I can change

If it helps you fall in love

(in looove)

And I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change

I can change, I can change, I can change

If it helps you fall in love

(in looove)

And I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change

I can change, I can change, I can change

If it helps you feel real love

(real looove)

And I can change, I can change, I can change, I can change

Christmas Will Break Your Heart

Key: EMedium

EChristmas will break your heart

If yourB world is feeling small

There'sA no one on the phone

You feelB close enough to call

EChristmas will crush your soul

Like thatB laid back rock 'n' roll

But yourA body's getting old

It's mucBh too tired to be so bold

EChristmas can wreck your head

Like someB listless awkward sex

So you refAuse to leave your bed

Get depBressed when no one checks

EChristmas will break your heart

Like theB armies of the unrelenting daArk

Once the peace talks fall apBart

But stillA I'mE coming home to Eyou

EChristmas will shove you down

So justB lay back in the snow

That Aquiet wind won't wake

What inBside you has grown cold

EChristmas will drown your love

Like a sBtorm down from above

On your Afading memories of a normal lBife

Oh wEhile I thought to make you Bmine

Believing in the liAne

That your heart would melt with tiBme

And tEhough you're out with them agaBin

Your thick and fickle frieAnds

They might replace the love that eBnds

But still AI'mE coming home to yEou

To Gyou

To Ayou

To Byou

YesE you

To Gyou

To Ayou

To Byou

What if you're Edone? G

What if you don't Awant it anymore?B

So what if they'reE gone? G

So what if they don't Alove you anymore?B
