Standard (EADGBE)

Pissing in plastic cups before we went on stage

Playing hackey sack back when Audioslave were still Rage

Watching all the freaky Dutch kids vomit then have sex

Listening to techno music on the bus while we under dress

Memories make me want to go back there, back there

All the memories make me want to go back there, back there

All the memories, how can we make it back there, back there

I want to be there a- gain

Messing with the journalists and telling stupid lies

They had a feeling that something was up because of the look in our eyes

In fact we didn't know what we were doing half of the time

We were so sure of ourselves and sure of our way of life

Memories make me want to go back there, back there

All the memories make me want to go back there, back there

All the memories, how can we make it back there, back there

I want to be there a- gain

Now I got so many people that I got to look out for

I never knew when I'll become away and buy some food at the store

I can hear them babies crying and the lawn needs to be mowed

I gotta get my groove on cause I'm freakin bored!

Memories make me want to go back there, back there

All the memories make me want to go back there, back there

All the memories, how can we make it back there, back there

I want to be there a- gain

Track #2

Ruling Me (additional writer: Dan Wilson)

Ring ring goes your telephone, you act like you ain't at home

You shut me out, but it turns me on

Red lipstick, black dresses, A look that I should not mess with

It makes us boys go crazy for you

[G/f#]

So fascinated, I'm anticipating

The touch that may never come

In the rain, In the sun

Everybody needs someone

They can dream of all night long

All the pain and the ways

That you're driving me insane

It's no mystery why you're ruling me

We first met in the lunch room, my ocular nerve went, *POP* *ZOOM*

I never observed such a beautiful face

Sweet lady, don't play me If I am a knob, don't fade me

You can't win the game if you pass the A's

[G/f#]

I'm so frustrated, this love's belated, methinks Let's get it to go

In the rain, In the sun

Everybody needs someone

They can dream of all night long

All the pain and the ways

That you're driving me insane

It's no mystery why you're ruling me

I'm not kidding anymore, this love hurts, that's for sure

I feel you, I see you, I need you

In the rain, In the sun

Everybody needs someone

They can dream of all night long

All the pain and the ways

That you're driving me insane

It's no mystery why you're ruling me

It's no mystery why you're ruling me

Track #3

Trainwrecks (additional writer: Desmond Child)

We sleep all day and rock the night

We just get up to start another fight

We kiss and then we bite

We are Trainwrecks

You don't keep passing up a slub (?)

Get freaky now cause I can't keep a job

We don't update our blogs

We are Trainwrecks

People love to tell us what to do

That's just cause they're jealous of me and you

We're digging through the couch for cash

We're taking cabs cause both our cars are trashed

But we're still kicking ass

We are Trainwrecks

Trainwrecks we're still kicking ass

We are Trainwrecks

We think it's uncool to be on top

Mooching off our friends is not a (?)

Someday we'll cut our critics down to size

And crash a Diddy party in disguise

We fall but then we rise

We are Trainwrecks

Trainwrecks

That's the story of our lives

We are Trainwrecks

Trainwrecks

That's the story of our lives

We are Trainwrecks

Track #4

Unspoken

Every morning, every day

I am hoping for the chance to get away

In the evening, every night

I am dreaming of a chance to make it right

Every chance that I get I am placing a bet

On the sun in the sky

And if you take this away from me

I'll never forgive you, can't you see?

Our life will be broken

Our hate will be unspoken

I can feel those metal chains

And they're holding back the hope that keeps me sane

I can fight back, yes I can!

Cause I'm strong enough to show you I'm a man

And I hate what you do when your poison seeps through

And you're laughing at me

And if you take this away from me

I'll never forgive you, can't you see?

Our life will be broken

Our hate will be unspoken

Every chance that I get, I am placing a bet

On the sun in the sky, as it sets out of sight

And I hate what you do when your poison seeps through

And you're laughing at me

And if you take this away from me

I'll never forgive you, can't you see?

Our life will be broken

Our hate will be unspoken

And if you take this away from me

I'll never forgive you, can't you see?

Our life will be broken

Our hate will be unspoken

Track #5

Where's My Sex? (additional writer: Greg Wells)

Reminds me of their older albums, the good ole times ;D

NOTE: Since u use power-chords (drop d) in the verse i didnt mind writing

down if its major or minor

. . . . . . . . . . .

Mom made my sex, she knitted it with her hands

Sex-making is a family tradition

Going back to the caveman days

They were walking around in a haze

Until they figured it out

And they said 'gosh dang, this is great!'

But now I'm like a prehistoric screwball

Walking round with no sex at all

(I said) Where's my sex? I thought it was here

Under the bench but it isn't there

I've got no idea where it disappeared to

I'm running late, I can't be late

I can't go out without my sex, it's cold outside and my toes get wet

And people will think that I'm an alien just cruising in to make a friend

Meg likes to hide it, she said that it gives her a kick

It may be under the rug or stuck in a shoe closet

Or tumbling round in the washing machine, she's always trying to get me clean

She adds detergent and bounce to eliminate static cling

It's gonna be another hour or more

Till I am ready to walk out the door

(I said) Where's my sex? I thought it was here

Under the bench but it isn't there

I've got no idea where it disappeared to

I'm running late, I can't be late

I can't go out without my sex, it's cold outside and my toes get wet

And people will think that I'm an alien just cruising in to make a friend

Bb Eb Bb Eb (Come on be my friend)

People can you hear me talking

I know you all are happy, rocking

Could you lend me a dime, pretty please?

Brother, sister, got time? I've got no

Sex on my feet, Sex in my drawer

Sex in my shoes or sex on the floor

(I said) Where's my sex? I thought it was here

Under the bench but it isn't there

I've got no idea where it disappeared to

I'm running late, I can't be late

I can't go out without my sex, it's cold outside and my toes get wet

And people will think that I'm an alien just cruising in to make a friend

Track #6

Run Away (additional writer: Ryan Adams)

I thought you would always be my friend

Now everything must end

And so the world moves on

And everything must go

When I'm looking at the night sky, I can see my soul

I can see the little lights flashing at eachother up above

Is it us making love in the Milky Way, long before we threw it all away?

Hey, you

We're running out of time

And you know it's true

I just want to run away from here with you

Tonight...

Tonight...

Sometimes I wish I was a house at the end of the block

You could smash all my windows with the throw of a rock

And make the hurt go away, come again some other day

There's so much I want to say about

You

We're running out of time

And you know its true

I just want to run away from here with you

I thought you would always be my friend

Now everything must end

And so the world moves on

Cuz everything must change

And now you're all alone

You're sitting by the telephone

You wonder why

Everyone will cry

( )

Tonight...

( )

Tonight...

( )

Tonight...

( )

Tonight...

Track #7

Hang On (additional writer: Rick Nowels)

Someday I'll be coming for you

You know what I'm wanting to do

I know the words to say

To draw you in so close to me

Over and over

( )

We swore it was over

But just like wild clover

Love grows at light speed

Hang on till I see you again

I'm going to be more than a friend

You know that this isn't the end so hang on (hang on, hang on, hang on)

This was just a very first start

There's more that I hold in my heart

I'm waiting for a chance

To show you how I long to be

Over and over

( )

We swore it was over

But just like I'm solar

You warm up to me

Hang on till I see you again

I'm going to be more than a friend

You know that this isn't the end so hang on (hang on, hang on, hang on)

Hang on til the break of the day

We'll cast all our troubles away

You know that this isn't the end so hang on (hang on, hang on, hang on)

Sweet thing

As long as I'm breathing

And my heart is still beating

I'm gonna be coming for you

(Hang on, hang on, hang on)

(Hang on, hang on, hang on)

Hang on till I see you again

I'm going to be more than a friend

You know that this isn't the end so hang on (hang on, hang on, hang on)

Hang on til the break of the day

We'll cast all our troubles away

You know that this isn't the end so hang on (hang on, hang on, hang on)

(Hang on) Hang on till I see you again

(Hang on) I'm going to be more than a friend

(Hang on) You know that this isn't the end so hang on (Hang on )

Hang On

Smart Girls (additional writer: tony kanal, jimmy harry)

Where did all these smart girls come from?

I don't think that I could choose just one

Where did all these smart girls come from?

Someone tell me how to get me some

On the floor, in the car, on the seat at the bar

Wherever I go, that's where they are

Smart girls

Never get enough, of those

Smart girls

Smart girls

I want to be a bad boy right now

Real me is dying to hang out

I know you know what I'm talking about

I've got a feeling you could show me how

On a bus, on a train, on a boat, on a plane

I'm falling in love, what was your name?

Smart girls

Never get enough, of those

Smart girls

Sleeping in the buff

Yumi, Sherie, Alison, Mary

Which one do I want to marry?

They’re all smart girls

They’re all smart girls

Sheena, Lola, Fabiola,

Don’t you know you make me lose my mind?

Solo

Where did all these smart girls come from?

I don't think that I could choose just one

Where did all these smart girls come from?

Someone tell me how to get me some

Lisa, Brittany, Paula, Whitney

Which one do I want here with me?

They're all smart girls

They're all smart girls

Debbie, Donna, Tatiana

Don't you know you make me lose my mind?

Smart girls

Never get enough, of those

Smart girls

Sleeping in the buff

Smart girls talkin' 'bout

Smart girls all I want is

Smart girls talkin' 'bout

Smart girls

Brave New World (additional writer: Linda Perry)

Here are the chords u play (power-chords)

I've been scared to make a move, so much left for me to prove

---See, thats not working. but u know how to play it, so here are the lyrics---

I guess it's time for me to show what I've got

Things will never be the same, I may snuff the burning flame

Or I may prove to be much more than I thought

This is the dawning of a brave new world

I don't know where I'm going, but I know I'll figure it out, yeah

This is the dawning of a brave new world

No more hesitating, it's too late to turn back now, yeah

You can come along with me or if that's not your destiny

You can choose to go your way if you want

I will send my best to you, there are things I have to do

I can't wait no more; I've got to move on

This is the dawning of a brave new world

I don't know where I'm going, but I know I'll figure it out, yeah

This is the dawning of a brave new world

No more hesitating, it's too late to turn back now, yeah

It does not take this action to see a chain reaction.

Everyone, blossoming in the sun

(Ooh) We'd hate to leave our shelter, but there's so much waiting out there.

If only we'd open our eyes and see

Woah... woah... woah... woah...

This is the dawning of a brave new world

I don't know where I'm going, but I know I'll figure it out, yeah

This is the dawning of a brave new world

No more hesitating, it's too late to turn back now, yeah

This is the dawning of a brave new world

I don't know where I'm going, but I know I'll figure it out, yeah

This is the dawning of a brave new world

No more hesitating, it's too late to turn back now, yeah

Time Flies (additional writer: Mac Davis)

I know this should be half-step down but im not gonna change the whole thing

for one chord... doesnt matter in the end anyways...

^ ^ ^ ^

^ ^ ^ ^

Had another birthday, could've been the worst day I ever had

Got a little drunk, and I fell into a funk and I woke up sad

Looked into the mirror there were lines around my eyes

Time flies when you're having fun

Time flies when you live on the run

The harder I go, the more I realize

^ ^ ^ ^

Time flies

Life is moving fast and I'm running out of gas, time ain't on my side

I'm still in the race and I'm barely keeping pace but it's worth the ride

Waiting round the corner there's another sweet surprise

Time flies when you're having fun

Time flies when you live on the run

The harder I go, the more I realize

^ ^ ^ ^

Time flies

^ ^ ^ ^

Hey yeah, hey yeah Time flies

^ ^ ^ ^

Hey yeah, hey yeah Time flies

Some sad day, they'll be taking me away but I won't be dead

Cause even when I'm gone, this stupid dance song will be in your head

I'll be looking down with a twinkle in my eyes

Time flies when you're having fun

Time flies when you live on the run

The harder I go, the more I realize

Time flies when you're having fun

Time flies when you live on the run

The harder I go, the more I realize

^ ^ ^ ^

Time flies

Track #11

All My Friends Are Insects (writer: Adam Deibert)

I have a friend and it's an earthworm

It burrows underground deep within the soil

Sometimes when it rains it comes out

And we talk about our day

I have a friend and she's a butterfly

She flies from flower to flower drinking sweet nectar

With hundreds of friends

They sleep up in the trees at night

I have a friend and he's a dragonfly

He sweeps around all day and hovers in the air

He's colorful and wonderful

His wings are strong and powerful

He's the dragonfly

These are my friends, even though they are bugs

They have a big role in our world, even though they're bugs

I have a friend and it's an earthworm

I have a friend and she's a butterfly

I have a friend and he's a dragonfly

They are my friends and yeah they're all insects

Track #12

Viva La Vida (Coldplay Cover) (writer: Coldplay)

I used to rule the world

Seas would rise when I gave the word

Now in the morning I sleep alone

Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice

Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes

Listen as the crowd would sing:

"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key

Next the walls were closed on me

And I discovered that my castles stand

Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing

Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

Be my mirror, my sword, and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain

Once you go there was never, never an honest word

That was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind

Blew down the doors to let me in

Shattered windows and the sound of drums

People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait

For my head on a silver plate

Just a puppet on a lonely string

Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing

Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

Be my mirror, my sword, and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain

I know Saint Peter will call my name, never an honest word

But that was when I ruled the world

(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing

Roman Cavalry choirs are singing

Be my mirror, my sword, and shield

My missionaries in a foreign field

For some reason I can't explain

I know Saint Peter will call my name, never an honest word

But that was when I ruled the world

Track #13

I Want To Be Something (writer: Coldplay)

4 in the morning and my roommate's still a-snoring

So I take a walk out on the Boulevard

The wind above me seems to push and pull and shove me

But it shows me all the places I could fly

I want to be something before I die

I feel it burning me inside

I want to be something, I don't know why

I want to know that at least I tried

I see so clearly that the odds are stacked against me

And that nobody else believes in me at all

I'm all alone here and I have to face my own fear

I have no choice but to keep on keeping on

I want to be something before I die

I feel it burning me inside

I want to be something, I don't know why

I want to know that at least I tried

And if my dreams all come true someday, true someday

I won't forget how I feel today, I feel today I'm blown away

I wanna be some'n' I wanna be some'n' I wanna be some'n' I wanna be some'n'

I wanna be some'n' I wanna be some'n' I wanna be some'n' Here I am, here I am

I want to be something before I die

I feel it burning me inside

I want to be something, I want to feel something

I want to know that at least I tried

Track #14

Represent (Rocked Out Mix) (additional writer: Rick Nowels)

---Note--- Im not gonna write down the G5 since u know how to play it

Oh, and in the chorus its an Am if u play it acoustically!

I'm sick and tired of everybody trying to tell me what to do

If I'm in need of your advice then surely I would come to you

I didn't get in this position just by happenstance

I worked my bones beyond the limit just to have half a chance

It matters how you play the game, It matters that you can take the pain

You don't want to lie, steal, or cheat your way to the top Ohh-ohh-ohhhhh

It matters what your people think, you represent your family

Well that's just one more reason to see, that it matters...

Whether you win or lose

Why don't we see who is the wizard and play some one on one

I think you'll find me sympathetic to ya when I've won

It seems you've got the brawn to beat me if this was all it takes

But I've got skills to pay the bills and punish each of your mistakes... U know

It matters how you play the game, It matters that you can take the pain

You don't want to lie, steal, or cheat your way to the top Ohh-ohh-ohhhhh

It matters what your people think, you represent your family

Well that's just one more reason to see, that it matters...

Whether you win or lose

One hundred years from now they'll look back on this day

Where are you going to be and what are they going to say

I see my name in lights, the people call my name

It's all up to you, will you find a way?

It matters how you play the game, It matters that you can take the pain

You don't want to lie, steal, or cheat your way to the top Ohh-ohh-ohhhhh

It matters what your people think, you represent your family

Well that's just one more reason to see, that it matters...

Whether you win or lose

It matters what your mother thinks, you represent your family

Well that's just one more reason to see that it matters...

Whether you win or lose
