And then I play the sequence C D Em Em7, wich goes for all the song, with a little

variation in one or two

I hope you like it!

Oh Ci miss the kiss of Dtreachery the Emshameless kiss of Em7vanity

TheC soft and the blackD and the velveEmty up tight againsEm7t the side of me

AndC mouth and eyes andD heart all bleEmed and run in thicEm7kening streams of greed

As Cbit by bit it startDs the need to Emjust let go my parEm7ty piece

CDEmEm7

Oh Ci miss the kiss of Dtreachery the Emaching kiss beforeEm7 i feed

TheC stench of a love fDor a younger mEmeat and the sound Em7that it makes when it cuts in deep

TheC holding up on bendDed knees the aEmddiction of duplicEm7ities

As Cbit by bit it startDs the need to Emjust let go my parEm7ty piece

ButC i never said i wouDld stay to theEm end so i leave yoEm7u with babies and hoping for frequency

ScrCeaming like this inD the hope of tEmhe secrecy screamiEm7ng me over and over and over

I lCeave you with photoDgraphs pictureEms of trickery staiEm7ns on the carpet and stains on the scenery

SonCgs about happiness Dmurmured in drEmeams when we both Em7of us knew how the ending would be ...

CDEmEm7

So Cmaj7it's all come back round to Dsus2breaking apart again Em7breaking apart like i'm made up of

glass again

MakCmaj7ing it up behind my back agaDsus2in holding my breath Em7for the fear of sleep again

HolCmaj7ding it up behind my head agDsus2ain cut in deep to thEm7e heart of the bone again

RouCmaj7nd and round and round and iDsus2t's coming apart agaiEm7n over and over and over

NowC that i know that iD'm breaking toEm pieces i'll pull Em7out my heart and i'll feed it to anyone

CryCing for sympathy crDocodiles cry fEmor the love of theEm7 crowd and the three cheers from everyone

DroCpping through sky tDhrough the glaEmss of the roof thrEm7ough the roof of your mouth

through the mouth of your eye

ThrCough the eye of theD needle it's eEmasier for me to geEm7t closer to heaven than ever feel

whole again

I nCever said i would sDtay to the endEm i knew i would leEm7ave you with babies and everything

ScrCeaming like this inD the hole of sEmincerity screamingEm7 me over and over and over

I lCeave you with photoDgraphs pictureEms of trickery staiEm7ns on the carpet stains on the memory

SonCgs about happiness Dmurmured in drEmeams when we both Em7of us knew how the end always is . ..

Cut here

Key: DEasy

"So we mDeet again!" and I offer my hand

All dGry and English sAlow.

And you lDook at me, and I understand,

Yeah, it's a lGook I used to kAnow.

"TDhree long years... and your favourite man...

Is thatG any way to sayA hello?",

And you hoDld me..G. like you'll nAever let me goD. G A

DGA

"Oh c'moDn and have a drink with me,

Sit dGown and talk a wAhile..."

"Oh I wDish I could... and I will!

But now I jGust don't have the tAime..."

And oDver my shoulder as I walk away,

I sGee you give that loAok goodbye...D

I still see that look in youGr eye..A.

So dEmizzy Mr. Busy - Too much rAush to talk to Billy,

All the sEmilly frilly things have to firAst get done.

In a mEminute - sometime soon - maybe nAext time - make it June,

Until lEmater... doesn't Aalways come.D G A

Until laDter..G. doesn't Aalways come.D G A

DGA

It's so hDard to think "It ends sometime,

And tGhis could be the laAst".

I should rDeally hear you sing again,

And I should rGeally watch you dAance,

Because it's hDard to think

"I'll never get anGother chance A

To holDd you... to holGd you..A. "

But cEmhilly Mr. Dilly - Too much rAush to talk to Billy,

All the tEmizzy fizzy idiot things mAust get done.

In a Emsecond - just hang on - all in gAood time - won't be long,

Until lEmater..A.

I shGould've stopped to tAhink - I should've mGade the time.A

I coGuld've had that drAink - I could've taGlked a while.A

I woGuld've done it riAght - I would've mGoved us on,A

But I dGidn't - now it's aAll too late,G

It's oAver... And you'reD gone... G A

DGA

I mDiss you, I miss you, I miss you, I miss you,

I mGiss you, I miss you soA much..D. G A

But hDow many times can I walk away

And wGish "If oAnly..."

HDow many times can I talk this way

And wGish "If oAnly..."

KDeep on making the same mistake,

KGeep on aching the sAame heartbreak,

And I wDish "If only..."

But "If oGnly...A."

Is a wish too lEmate...

*(pode ser A, não tenho certeza)

Where The Birds Always Sing

Key: BmMedium

Bm7

Am7

Cm7

Essa música é bem simples de tocar. Fique atento ao acorde Bm7,

que deve ser feito de maneira diferente no meio da música, e à batida,

que também muda em alguns momentos.

Fica bem legal tocar ela em um violão de 12 cordas.

Bm7The world is neither fair nor unAm7fair Cm7

Bm7The idea is just a way for us to Am7undersCm7tand

Bm7But the world is neither fair nor unAm7fair Cm7

So Bm7one survives

The Cm7others die

And you always Bm7want a Cm7reason why

But the Bm7world is neither just nor unAm7just Cm7

Bm7It's just us trying to feel that there's some Am7sense in Cm7it

Bm7No, the world is neither just nor unAm7just Cm7

And though Bm7going young

So Cm7much undone

Is a Bm7tragedy for Cm7everyone

It Bm7doesn't speak a plan or any Am7secret thingCm7

Bm7No unseen sign or untold truth in Am7anything.Cm7..

But Bm7living on in others, in Am7memories and Cm7dreams

Is Bm7not enough

You want Cm7everything

ABm7nother world where the Cm7sun always shines

And the birds always sing

Always sing...

The Bm7world is neither fair nor unAm7fair Cm7

Bm7The idea is just a way for us to Am7understandCm7

Bm7No the world is neither fair nor unAm7fair Cm7

So Bm7some survive

And Cm7others die

And you Bm7always want a rCm7eason why

But the Bm7world is neither just nor unAm7just Cm7

Bm7It's just us trying to feel that there's some Am7sense in Cm7it

Bm7No, the world is neither just nor unAm7just Cm7

And though Bm7going young

So Cm7much undone

Is a Bm7tragedy for Cm7everyone

Bm7It doesn't mean there has to be a Am7way of thingsCm7

Bm7No special sense that hidden hands are Am7pulling stringsCm7

But Bm7living on in others, in Am7memories and Cm7dreams

Is Bm7not enough

And it Cm7never is

You Bm7always want so Cm7much more than this...

An Bm7endless sense of soul and an Am7eternity of Cm7love

Bm7A sweet mother down below and a just Am7father aboveCm7

For Bm7living on in others, in Am7memories and Cm7dreams

Is Bm7not enough

You want Cm7everything

ABm7nother world

Where the Cm7birds always sing

ABm7nother world

Where the Cm7sun always shines

ABm7nother world

Where Cm7nothing ever dies...

Strange Attraction

Key: AmMedium

It Amstarted with a dedication

"lCost in admiration - happy Fbirthday - i'm forever yours - Gblossom"

Faded red inside a tAminy book of butterflies

I Csmiled surprised at how when flickered tFhrough

The wings flew by spelled out Gmy name

SiDmx months went by the summer lost

OCbsessively the letters dropped iGnto my life

The same soft blood smooth fAmlowing hand

"please try to underDmstand - i have to see you - have to fCeel you -

Tell you all the ways i Gneed you - yours forever in lAmove"

FStrange attraction spreads its wings

It Cvaries but the smallest things

You nDmever know how anything will chEmange

SFtrange attraction spreads its wings

And Calters but the smallest things

You nDmever know how anything will fGade

The yAmear grew old incessantly she wCrote to me

She'd started smoking pFoetry!

I laughed in recognGition of a favorite phrase

She'd pAmulled me in...

I answered her

A cChristmas card in sepia

AFrranging when and where

And how the tGwo of us should meet...

Her oDmpening so well prepared

A nCervous smile

I couldn't take my eGyes from her

She whispered

"can i Amuse some of your lipstick?"

It was pDmerfect so believable

I cCouldn't help but feel that it was rGeal

And kissing crimson fell iAmnto her waiting arms

FStrange attraction spreads its wings

It Cvaries but the smallest things

You nDmever know how anything will cEmhange

FStrange attraction spreads its wings

And aClters but the smallest things

You Dmnever know how anything will Gfade

So aAmlone into the cold new year wCithout another word from her

I Fwrote to ask if we could maybe Gmeet again before the spring

But Amweeks went by with no reply Cuntill once more my birthday came

And Fwith it my surprise but this time Gnothing was the same...

"i'm Dmsorry - blame infatuation - Cblame imagination

I was Gsure you'd be the one but i was wAmrong -

It seems reality deDmstroys our dreams - i won't forget you Cblossom"

Faded red inside a Gtiny book of old goodAmbyes...

FStrange attraction spreads its wings

It vCaries but the smallest things

You Dmnever know how anything will cEmhange

FStrange attraction spreads its wings

And Calters but the smallest things

You nDmever know, you never know, and you never know...
