     The problem is all inside your head she said to me,
 EmDBm7Eb/BB
     The answer is easy if you take it logically.   
 GDC7/GEbm6/A
     I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free.
 GAm/F#G
    There must be - fifty ways to leave your lover.

 GDC7/GEbm6/A
     You know it's really not my habit to intrude,
 EmDBm7Eb/BB
    Furthermore I hope my meaning won't be lost or miss-construed,   
 GDC7/GEbm6/A
    But I'll repeat myself, at the risk of being crude.
 GAm/F#G
    There must be - fifty ways to leave your lover
 GAm/F#G
    Fifty ways to leave your lover

 GBb
    Just slip out the back jack, make a new plan stan,
 C7/GG
    No need to be coy Roy, just listen to me
 GBb
    Hop on the bus gus, don't need to discuss much,
 C7/GG
    Just drop off the key Lee, and set yourself free
x2

 GDC7/GEbm6/A
     You know it grieves me so to see you in such pain
 EmDBm7Eb/BB
     I wish there was something I could do to make you smile again     
 GDC7/GEbm6/A
     I said 'I appreciate that, and would you please explain
 GAm/F#G
    'Bout the fifty ways'         

 GDC7/GEbm6/A
     She said 'why don't we both just sleep on it tonight,
 EmDBm7Eb/BB
    And I believe that in the morning you'll begin to see the light.'   
 GDC7/GEbm6/A
    She kissed me and I realised, she probably was right,
 GAm/F#G
    There must be - fifty ways to leave your lover.
 GAm/F#G
     Fifty ways to leave your lover

 GD
 till your kiss helped me name it
 BmEBmE6
Now I'm no longer doubtful of what I'm living for

'cause if I make you happy I don't need to do more.

 EADA
 You make me feel, you make me feel,

NOTE: At the end of each C C/B Am C/G F chord progression, there
is a small but important extra note. While fingering the F chord
(1 3 3 2 1 1), quickly hammer on and then pull off the sus note
(1 3 3 3 1 1). Do this twice each time. Listen to the record to
get a better idea of what I mean.

American Pie

Don McLean


 GDEm7AmC
long long time ago I can still remember
 EmDGDEm7
how that music used to make me smile And I knew if I had my chance
 AmCEmCDEm
that I could make those people dance and maybe they'd be happy for a while.
 AmEmAm
But February made me shiver With every paper I'd deliver
 CGAmCD
 Bad news on the doorstep I couldn't take one more step
 GDEmAm7D
can't remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride
 GDEmCD7GCG
But something touched me deep inside The day the Music Died               So

 GCGDGCGD
 bye bye Miss American Pie Drove my chevy to the levy But the levy was dry
 GCGD
And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
 EmA7EmD7
Singin' this'll be the day that I die this'll be the day that I die.

 GAmCAm
 Did you write the book of love And do you have faith in God above?
 EmDGDEm
   If the Bible tells you so.  Do you believe in Rock 'n Roll?
 Am7CEmA7D
Can music save your mortal soul? And can you teach me how to dance real slow?
 EmDEmD
Well, I know that you're in love with him 'cause I saw you dancin' in the gym
 CGA7CD7
You both kicked off your shoes Man, I dig those rythmny blues
 GDEmAmC
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck With a pink carnation and a pickup truck.
 GDEmCD7GCG
But I knew I was out of luck The day the music died       I started singin'   (Chorus)

 GAmCAm
 Now for ten years we've been on our own And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone
 EmDGDEm
   But that's not how it used to be When the jester sang for the King and Queen
 Am7CEmA7D
In a coat he borrowed from James Dean And a voice that came from you and me
 EmDEmD
Oh, and while the King was looking down The jester stole his thorny crown
 CGA7CD7
The courtroom was adjourned No verdict was returned
 GDEmAmC
And while Lennon read a book of Marx The court kept practice in the park
 GDEmCD7GCG
And we sang dirges in the dark The day the Music Died.       We were singing(Chorus)

 GAmAmCAm
 Helter-Skelter in a summer swelter The Byrds flew off with a fallout shelter
 EmDGDEm
 Eight Miles High and falling fast It landed foul out on the grass
 Am7CEmA7D
The players tried for a forward pass But the jester's on the sidelines in a cast
 EmDEmD
Now the half-time air was sweet perfume While the sargeants played a marching tune
 CGA7CD7
 We all got up to dance But we never got the chance
 GDEmAmC
'cause the players tried to take the field The marching band refused to yield
 GDEmCD7GCG
 Do you recall what was reveiled the day the Music Died?         We stared singing(Chorus)

 GAmCAm
 Oh, and there we were all in one place a generation Lost in Space
 EmDG
 With no time left to start again So come on, Jack be nimble
 EmAm7CEmA7D
 Jack be quick Jack Flash sat on a candlestick 'cause fire is the Devil's only friend
 EmDEmD
Oh, and as I watched him on the stage My hands were clenched in fists of rage
 CGA7CD7
 No angel born in hell Could break that Satan's spell
 GDEmAmC
And as the flames climbed high into the night To light the sacrifical rite
 GDEmCD7GCG
I saw Satan laughing with delight The day the Music Died          He was singing(Chorus)

 GAmCAm
met a girl who sang the blues And I asked her for some happy news
 EmDGD
But she just smiled and turned away I went down to the sacred store
 EmAm7EmA7D
Where I'd heard the music years before But the man there said the music woudn't play
 EmDEmD
And in the streets the children screamed The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed
 CGA7CD7
 But not a word was spoken The Church bells all were broken
 GDEmAmC
And three men I admire most The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
 GDEmCD7GCG
They caught the last train for the coast The Day the Music Died.         And they were singing(Chorus) TWICE

  All the things we thought weren't proper could be right in time
 DCD
  And can you see, Which way we should turn together or alone
 CE
  I can never see whats right or what is wrong (yeah you take to long to see)

(c) (Solo) Well now (c)


 AGDAGDA
   Now it's come to what you want you've had your way    
 GDA
   And all the things you though before just faded into gray

   If its one of us I'm sure we'll both will see

NOTE: I don't actually know if these chords are 'sus' chords, but I had
to call them something! Also, on the first two lines of the chorus and
frequently on the verse, it is better to somewhat muffle the chords so
that the rhythm can be heard but the actual notes barely heard. Also,
the song can be played in regular tuning with the same chords, but I
think it sounds much better this way (and this is what J.M. actually does).
Also, please post if you know any J.M. songs in their actual
tuning. I hear that of all her guitar songs, she only did around
two of them in standard tuning!

Bridge Over Troubled Water

Simon & Garfunkel

 CF/CCF/C
 When you're weary, feeling small,           
 CBbF/CCF/CCF/CCF/C
 When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;          
 CG/BAmGCC/B
 I'm on your side. Oh when times get rough      
 C7/BbAmGFD/F#G
 And friends just can't be found,
 CC7FF#dimCAmF
 Like a bridge over troubled water            
 E7Am
I will lay me down.
 CC7FF#dimCAmF
 Like a bridge over troubled water            
 F/GC
I will lay me down.     

When you're down and out,
When you're on the street,
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
I'll take your part.
When darkness comes
And pain is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.

Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.

And hey babe the sky's on fire, I'm dying, ain't I?
 GDCDG
 Going to Carolina in my mind


 GC
 Dark and silent late last night
 CD
I think I might have heard the highway calling
 EmCD
 Geese in flight and dogs that bite
 CDEmDCD
 Signs that might be omens say I going, going
 GDCDG
I'm going to Carolina in my mind

 EmCEmD
With a holy host of others standing round me 
 CAmD
 Still I'm on the dark side of the moon  
 CCDG
And it seems like it goes on like this forever
 EmD
You must forgive me    
 GDCDG
If I'm up and gone to Carolina in my mind


For the D in every 3rd line of the verses, you can put your pinky down on the high G
beside your middle finger which is on the F#). It'll sound nice, but it sounds the best if
do it like this:

D (wait) (add the pinky) (take it off)
'Whisper something warm and kind'

Good luck!

City of new orleans

Arlo Guthrie

Intro:
First Note: D

 GDG
 Riding on the City of New Orleans
 EmCG
 Illinois Central Monday morning rail
 GDG
 Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
 EmDG
 Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail.
 EmBm
 All along the south bound odyssey, the train pulls out of Kenkakee
 DA
 Rolls along past houses farms and fields
 EmBm
 Passing trains that have no name, freight yards of old black men
 DD7G
 And graveyards of rusted automobiles.

Chorus:
 CD7G
 Good morning America, how are you?
 EmCGD7D9
 Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son.  
 GDEmEm7A7
 I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans  
 BbCDD9G
 I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.

Dealing card games with the old men in the club car
Penny a point ain't no one keeping score
Pass the paper bag but hold the bottle
Feel the wheels rumbling 'neath the floor

And the sons of Pullman porters and the sons of engineers
Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel
Mother with her babes asleep rocking to the gentle beat
And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel.

Chorus. (As above)

Nightime on the City of New Orleans
Changing cars in Memphis Tennessee
Half way home we'll be there by morning
through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea.
But all the towns and people seem to fade into a dark dream
And the steel rail still ain't heard the news
The conductor sings his songs again, the passagers will please refrain
This train got the disappearing railroad blues.

Chorus:
Good night America, How are you?
Say, don't you know me, I'm your native son.
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done.

Diamonds and Rust

Joan Baez

 Em
Well I'll be damned
 C
Here comes your ghost again
 G
But that's not unusual
 D
Its just that the moon is full
 Em
And you happened to call

 Em
And here I sit
 C
Hand on the telephone
 G
I'm hearing a voice I'd known
 D
A couple of light years ago
 Em
Heading straight for a fall


As I remember,
Your eyes were bluer than robins' eggs
My poetry was lousy you said
Where are you calling from?
A booth in mid-west
Ten years ago
I bought you some cuff-links
You bought me something
We both know what memories can bring
They bring diamonds and rust

You burst on the scene
Already a legend
The unwashed phenomenon
The original vagabond
You strayed into my arms
And there you stayed
Temporarily lost at sea
The madonna was yours for free
The girl on the half-shell
Could keep you unharmed

 Bm
 Now I see you standing with brown leaves falling all around
 Am
And snow in your hair
 Bm
Now you're smiling out of the window of that crummy hotel
 Am
Over Washington square
 C
Our breath comes out of white clouds
 G
Mingles and hangs in the air
 Fmaj7
Speaking strictly for me
 GB7
We both could have died then and there


Now your telling me
Your not nostalgic
Then give me another word for it
You who are so good with words
And keeping things vague
'Cos I need some of that vagueness now
Its all come back too clearly
Yes I loved you dearly
And if you're offering diamonds and rust
I've already paid

It ain't no use in turnin' on you light, babe
A light I never knowed
It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
Still I wish there were something you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin' anyway
So don't think twice, it's alright.
I'm walkin' down that long lonesome road, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
Goodbye is too good a word, gal
So I'll just say, fare thee well.
I'm not sayin' you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's alright.
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
Like you never done before
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
I can't hear you anymore
I'm a-thinkin' and a-wonderin' all the way down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I am told
I'd give her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don't think twice, it's alright.

Uhh, I don't know how much of a purist you are, but those lyrics are sort
of a combination of Peter, Paul and Mary's version and Dylan's. Here's the
lyrics I have for Dylan's, straight off 'The Freewheelin''
 -
 Well it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, baby
If'n you don't know by now
And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It'll never do somehow
When your rooster crows at the break of dawn,
look out your window and I'll be gone
you're the reason I'm a travelling on
But don't think twice, it's all right
And it ain't no use in turning on your light babe

Fire & Rain

James Taylor

 AEDA
Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone  
 DEG SUSA
Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you
 AEDA
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song 
 EG SUS
Just can't remember who to send it to
Chorus:
 DD/C#D/F#DDA
Oh I've seen fire and i've seen rain 
 DD/C#D/F#DA
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end 
 DD/C#D/F#DA
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend 
 GG SUSC/BAM/G
But I always thought that I'd see  you again 
Verse:
Been walking my mind to an easy time my back turned towards the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around
Well there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground
Chorus:
 DD/C#D/F#DDA
Oh I've seen fire and i've seen rain 
 DD/C#D/F#DA
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end 
 DD/C#D/F#DA
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend 
 GG SUSC/BAM/G
But I always thought that I'd see  you again 
baby, one more time again, now
Repeat Chorus:
Thought I'd see you one more time again
There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now
Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you fire and rain, now

Hallelujah

Leonard Cohen

 GEm
 I heard there was a secret chord
 GEm
 that David played and it pleased the Lord,
 CG
But you don't really care for music do you.
 GCD
 It goes like this the fourth the fifth,
 EmCD
 the minor fall and the major lift
 DEm
 The baffled king composing hallelujah

 CEmCG-D-G
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja


 GEm
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
 GEm
You saw her bathing on the roof
 CG
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
 GCD
She tied you to a kitchen chair
 EmCD
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
 DEm
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

 CEmCG-D-G
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja

 GEm
You say I took the name in vain
 GEm
I don't even know the name
 CG
But if I did, well really, what's it to ya?
 GD
There's a blaze of light in every word
 EmD
It doesn't matter which you heard
 DEm
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

 CEmCG-D-G
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja

 GEm
I did my best, it wasn't much
 GEm
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
 G
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya
 GD
And even though it all went wrong
 EmD
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
 DEm
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

 GG
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah

 A winter's day-
 FC
in a deep and dark December
 DmG7FC
 I am alone- 
 Dm7Em7Dm7Em7
 Gazing from my window to the streets below
 DmFG
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
 FCFGCAm
 I am a rock,  I am an island. 
2.
I've built walls,
A fortress deep and mity
That none may penetrate
I have no need of friendship
friendship causes pain
It's laughter and loving I disdain
I am a rock, I am an island
3.
Don't talk of love
but I've heard the word before
It's sleeping in my memory
I won't disturb the slumber of the feelings that have died
If I never loved I never would have cried
I am a rock, I am an island
4.
I have my books
and my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armour
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb,
I touch no one and no one touches me.
 FCFGC
 I am a rock, I am an island
 Dm7GCDm7GC
And a rock feels no pain, and an island never cries.

If You Could Read My Mind

Gordon Lightfoot

 A
 If you could read my mind, love
 G
 What a tale my thoughts could tell
 A
 Just like an old time movie
 G
 'bout a ghost from a wishing-well
 AD
 In a castle dark or a fortress strong
 EF#m
 With chains upon my feet
 DA
You know that ghost is me
 DC#m
And I will never be set free
 Bm7EA
As long as I'm a ghost you can't see

(Verse 2)
 A
 If I could read your mind, love
 G
 What a tale your thoughts could tell
 A
 Just like a paperback novel
 G
 The kind that drugstores sell
 AD
 When you reach the part where the heartaches come
 EF#m
The hero would be me
 DA
And heroes often fail
 DC#m
 And you won't read that book again
 Bm7EA
 Because the ending's just too hard to take

(Middle section)

 AGAG
                                    
 AD
 I'd walk away like a movie star
 EF#m
Who gets burned in a three way script
 DA
And enter number two
 DF#m
movie queen to play the scene
 Bm7EF#m
 Of bringing all the good things out in me
 DA
But for now, love, let's be real
 DC#m
never thought I could act this way
 Bm7E
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
 DF#m
don't know where we went wrong
 Bm7
But the feeling's gone
 EA
And I just can't get it back

 AGAG

 If you could read my mind, love,

 A
 Just like an old time movie
 G
 'bout a ghost from a wishing-well
 AD
 In a castle dark or a fortress strong
 EF#m
 With chains upon my feet
 DA
The story always ends

 DC#m
And if you read between the lines
 Bm7EF#m
You'll know that I'm just trying to understand
 DA
The feeling that you lack
 DC#m
never thought I could feel this way

And I've got to say that I just don't get it

I don't know where we went wrong

Leaving On A Jet Plane

 AD
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
 AD
I’m standing here, outside the door
 ADE
hate to wake you up and say goodbye
 AD
But the dawn is breaking, its early morn

The taxi’s waitin, it’s blowin its horn

Already Im so lonesome I could die

2nd verse:
 AD
There so many times I’ve let you down
 AD
So many times I’ve played around
 ADE
tell you now, they don’t mean a thing.
 AD
Every place I go I think of you
 AD
Every song I sing I sing for you
 ADE
When I come back I’ll buy you Burger King (or I’LL WEAR YOUR WEDDING RING)
CHORUS

3rd verse:
 AD
Well now the time has come to leave you
 AD
 One more time please let me kiss you

Then close your eyes and I’ll be on my way.

 Dream about the days to come

Truer than any tree ever grew
Deeper than any forest primeval

D7sus/G D7/F# Dm7/F D7/f#

Through the years as the fire starts to mellow
Blurring lines in the book of our lives
Though the binding's cracked and the pages start to yellow
I'll be in love with you

Moonshadow

Cat Stevens

 DGDGD-A7-D
Oh, I'm bein' followed by a moonshadow, moon shadow, moonshadow---
 DGDGD-A7-D
 Leapin and hoppin' on a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow---
Verse 1:
 GDGDGDEmA7
 And if I ever lose my hands, lose my plough, lose my land,
 GDGDEmA7DF#mBmEmAD
                                                                                                                                                 
Oh if I ever lose my hands, Oh if------------- I won't have to work no more.

Verse 2 (use same chords as Verse 1 for all verses):
And if I ever lose my eyes, if my colours all run dry,
Yes if I ever lose my eyes, Oh if------------- I won't have to cry no more.

Refain
Verse 3:
And if I ever lose my legs, I won't moan, and I won't beg,
Yes if I ever lose my legs, Oh if------------- I won't have to walk no more.

Verse 4:
And if I ever lose my mouth, all my teeth, north and south,
Yes if I ever lose my mouth, Oh if------------- I won't have to talk...

Verse 5:
 E7AEA
 Did it take long to find me?  I asked the faithful light.
 EAE7A
 Did it take long to find me?  And are you gonna stay the night?
Refrain
 GA7DGA7D
 moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow.
Oh, by the way, the chords aren't played in basic position. For
example use a D by barring the fifth fret and using the remaining fingers in an
'A' formation. Try fooling around with alternate chord shapes at different
parts of the neck and throwing in some hammers-on to more closely resemble the
recording.

 BEm-Em7-A7
 Jump  so hi-igh

   Then he lightly  touched down

He told me of the time he worked with Minstrel shows
Travelling throughout the south
He spoke with tears of fifteen years
How his dog and he, they would travel about.
But his dog up and died, he up and died
And after twenty years he still grieved

Chorus
 EmD
  That's mister Bojangles
 EmD
  Calling mister Bojangles

 Mister Bojangles come back and dance and dance
Em Riff
And dance please dance

He said 'I dance now
At every chance in the Honky Tonks
For my drinks and tips
But most the time I spend
Behind these country bars
You see on I drinks a bit'
Then he shook his head
Oh lord when he shook his head
I could swear I heard someone say please

We'll move up into the mountains so high that we can't be found
Through 'I love you' echoes down the canyon
And we'll lie awake at night 'til they come back around

Please come to L.A., we'll live forever
The California life alone is just too hard to bear
We'll live in a house that looks out over the ocean
And we'll see stars fall from the sky, livin' up on the hill

Tapestry

Carole King

 EB7EB7
My life has been a tapestry of rich and royal hue,
 EB7EB7
an everlasting vision of the everchanging view,
 F#m7BAB
wondrous woven magic in bits of blue and gold,
 Amaj7G#m7F#mB7
tapestry to feel and see, impossible to hold.

 Emaj7B9Emaj7B9
 Once amid the soft silver sadness in the sky
 EB9EB7
there came a man of fortune, a drifter passing by
 F#m7BAB
he wore a torn and tattered cloth around his leathered hide
 Amaj7G#m7F#mB7F#m7B7
and a coat of many colors, yellow-green on either side.          

 GD7susD7Gmaj7D7
He moved with some uncertainty, as if he didn't know
 GD7susD7Gmaj7D7
 just what he was there for, or where he ought to go
 BGb7Abm7B
 once he reached for something golden hanging from a tree
 Emaj7Gb
and his hand came down - empty.

 EB7EB7
 Soon within my tapestry along the rutted road
 EB7EB7
he sat down on a river rock and turned into a toad,
 F#m7BAB
it seemed that he had fallen into someone's wicked spell,
 Amaj7G#m7F#mB7
and I wept to see him suffer, though I didn't know him well.

 FC7FC7
 As I watched in sorrow, there suddenly appeared
 FC7FC7
figure gray and ghostly beneath a flowing beard
 Gm7CBbC
in times of deepest darkness, I've seen him dressed in black
 Bbmaj7Am7GmC7
now my tapestry's unravelling; he's come to take me back,
 Gm7D9susDm7/4
he's come to take me back.

Teach Your Children

Graham Nash

Intro has one bar of each chord:

 DGDA

 DG
 You who are on the road
 DA
Must have a code that you can live by
 DG
And so become yourself
 DA
Because the past is just a good-bye.

 DG
 Teach your children well,
 DA
Their father's hell did slowly go by,
 DG
And feed them on your dreams
 DA
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.

 DGD
 Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
 BmGA
So just look at them and sigh   
 D
and know they love you.
 GDA
     

 DG
 And you, of tender years,
 DA
Can't know the fears that your elders grew by,
 DG
And so please help them with your youth,
 DA
They seek the truth before they can die.

 DG
 Teach your parents well,
 DA
Their children's hell will slowly go by,
 DG
And feed them on your dreams
 DA
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.

 DGD
 Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
 BmGA
So just look at them and sigh   
 D
and know they love you.
 GDAD
       

Wish you well,
Orangegazelle

The boxer

Simon & Garfunkel

 CAm
 I am just a poor boy, though my story's seldom told
 G
I have squandered my resistance
 C
For a pocketful of mumbles such are promises
 AmGF
All lies and jest still a man hears what he wants to hear
 CGC
And disregards the rest 
 Am
When I left my home and family I was no more than a boy
 G
In the company of strangers
 Dm7C
In the quiet of a railway station running scared
 AmGF
Laying low seeking out the poorer quarters where the ragged people go
 GFEmDmC
Looking for the places only they would know
 Am
Lie-la-lie
 G
Lie-la-lie la lie-la-lie
 Am
Lie la lie
 GFGC
 Lie-la-lie la la la la lie la la la la lie
 Am
Asking only workmans wages I come looking for a job
 G
But I get no offers
 Dm7C
Just a come-on from the whores on seventh avenue
 AmDm7GFC
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome I took some comfort there
 GC

 Then I'm laying out my winter clothes
 G7CAm
 And wishing I was gone
 GDm7G7GC
Going home where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
 Am
Leading me
 G
Going Home
 CAm
In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade
 G
And he carries the reminders
 G7CDm7G7C
Of ev'ry glove that laid him down or cut him 'till he cried out
 Am
In his anger and his shame
 GFC
'I am Leaving, I am Leaving.'  But the Fighter still remains

Up on the roof

Carole King



 GEm
                When this old world starts getting me down
 CDG
                And people are just too much for me to face
 Em
                I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs
 CDG
                And all my cares just drift right into space
 C
                         On the roof it's peaceful as can be
 GEmCD
                And there the world below don't bother me 
 GEm
                         So when I come home feelin' tired and beat
 CDG
                I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet
 Em
                I'll get away from the hustling crowd
 CDG
                And all that rat-race noise down in the street
 C
                         On the roof that's the only place I know
 GEmCD
                Where you just have to wish to make it so 
(Lets go up on the roof)
Lead
 C
                         At night the stars put on a show for free
 GEmCD
                And darling you can share it all with me 
I keep on telling you that
 GEm
                Right smack dab in the middle of town
 CDG
                I've found a paradise that's trouble proof
 GEm
                And if this old world starts getting you down
 CDGEm
                There's room enough for two up on the roof 
 CD
                Up on the roof

                Up on the roof

Don Maclean

VERSE 1

 GAm
 Starry starry night, paint your palette blue and grey,
 C
 look out on a summer's day with
 D7G
         eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
 GAm
 Shadows on the hills, sketch the trees and the daffodills
 C
 catch the breeeze and the winter chills, in
 D7GAmBmAmG
         colors on the snowy linen land.    

CHORUS

 AmD7G
 Now I understand, what you tried to say to me,
 EmAm7
 how you suffered for your sanity,
 D7Em
         how you tried to set them free -
 A7Am7
 They would not listen they did not know how,
 D7G
         perhaps they'll listen now.

VERSE 2

 GAm
 Starry starry night, flaming flowers that brightly blaze,
 C
 swirling clouds in violet haze
 D7G
         reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue.
 GAm
 Colors changing hue, morning fields of amber grain,
 C
 weathered faces lined in pain are
 D7G
         soothed beneath the artists' loving hand.

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE

 GAm7
 For they could not love you,
 D7GG/F#E
         but still your love was true,   
 Am7
 and when no hope was left in sight
 Cm
          on that starry starry night
 GF7E7
 you took your life as lovers often do.
 Am7
 But I could have told you Vincent,
 CD7
 this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you.

VERSE 3

 GAm
 Starry starry night, portraits hung in empty halls,
 C
 frameless heads on nameless walls with
 D7G
         eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
 G
 Like the strangers that you've met,
 Am
          the ragged men in ragged clothes,
 C
 the silver thorn of bloody rose lie
 D7G
         crushed and broken on the virgin snow.

CHORUS B

 AmD7G
 Now I think I know, what you tried to say to me,
 EmAm7
 how you suffered for your sanity,
 D7Em
         how you tried to set them free -
 A7Am7
 They would not listen, they're not listening still,
 D7G
         perhaps they never will.

Wreck Of Edmund Fitzgerald

Gordon Lightfoot

 Asus2
 The legend lives on from the
 EmG
 Chippewa on down, of the big lake
 DAsus2Em
they call Gitche Gumee, the lake it is said never gives up its
 GDAsus2
dead when the skies of November turn gloomy, with a load of
iron
 EmGD
ore twenty-six thousand tons more, than the Edmund Fitzgerald
 Asus2Em
weighed empty, that good ship and crew, was a bone to be chewed,
 GDAsus2
when the gales of November came early.

The ship was the pride of the American side coming back from some mill in
Wisconsin, as the big freighters go it was bigger than most, with a crew and
good captain well seasoned, concluding some terms with a couple of steel
firms, when they left fully loaded for Cleveland, and later that night when
the ships bell rang, could it be the north wind they'd been feeling.

The wind in the wires made a tattle-tale sound, and a wave broke over the
railing, and every man knew as the captain did too, twas the witch of
November come stealing, the dawn came late and breakfast had to wait, when
the gales of November came slashing, when the afternoon came it was freezing
rain, in the face of a hurricane west wind.

When suppertime came the old cook came on deck, saying fellas its too rough
to feed you, at seven p.m. a main hatch way caved in, he said fellas its
been good to know you. the captain wired in, he had water coming in, and the
good ship and crew were in peril, and later that night when his lights went
of sight, came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

Does anyone know where the love of God goes, when the waves turn the minutes
to hours, the searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay, if they'd
put fifteen more miles behind her, they might have split up, or they might
have capsized, they may have broke deep and took water, all that remains is
the faces and names of the wives and the sons and the daughters.

Lake Huron rolls, Superior swings, in the rooms of her ice water mansions,
old Michigan steams like a young mans dreams, the islands and bays are for
sportsmen, and farther below Lake Ontario takes in what Lake Erie can send
her, and the iron boats go as the mariners all know, with the gales of
November remembered.

In a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed, in the Maritime Sailors
Cathedral, the church bell chimed till it rang twenty-nine times, for each
man on the Edmund Fitzgerald, The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down,
of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee, the lake it is said never gives up
its dead when the gales of November come early.

Youve Got a Friend

Carole King

 AmE7Am
When you're down and troubled, and you need some loving care,

 AmE7Am
 Close your eyes and think of me, and soon I will be there,

 CFAm7G
     Winter, spring, summer or fall, all you have to do is call, 
 FEmDm7G7C
     And I'll be there, yes I will, you've got a friend.

If the sky above you grows dark and full of clouds,
And that old north wind begins to blow.
Keep your head together, and call my name out loud,
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door.

You just call out my name, and you know where I am,
I'll come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer or fall, all you have to do is call,
And I'll be there, yes I will.

 BbF
Now ain't it good to know that you've got a friend,
 C
When people can be so cold.
 FBb9
They'll hurt you, yes and desert you,
 Am7D7G7susG7
And take your soul if you let them, Oh, but don't let them.

You just call out my name, and you know where I am,
I'll come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer or fall, all you have to do is call,
And I'll be there, yes I will, you've got a friend.
