Standard (EADGBE)

Are you aware of what you make me feel baby

Right now I feel invisible to you like I'm not real

Didn't you feel me lock my arms around you why'd you turn away

Here's what I have to say

I was left to cry there waiting outside there grinning with the lost stare

That's when I decided

Why should I care

Cause you weren't there when I was scared I was so alone

You, you need to listen

I'm starting to trip I'm losing my grip and I'm in this thing alone

Am I just some chick you place beside you to take somebody's place

When you turn around can you recognize my face

You used to love me you used to hug me but that wasn't the case

Everything wasn't okay

I was left to cry there waiting outside there grinning with the lost stare

That's when I decided

Why should I care

Cause you weren't there when I was scared I was so alone

You, you need to listen

I'm starting to trip I'm losing my grip and I'm in this thing alone

Cryin' out loud I'm cryin out loud

Cryin' out loud I'm cryin out loud

Open your eyes

Open up wide

Why should I care

Cause you weren't there when I was scared I was so alone

Why should I care

Cause you weren't there when I was scared I was so alone

You, you need to listen

I'm starting to trip I'm losing my grip and I'm in this thing alone

Why should I care

Cause you weren't there when I was scared I was so alone

You, you need to listen

I'm starting to trip I'm losing my grip and I'm in this thing alone

3.Sk8er Boi

Intro

Verse

He was a boy, she was a girl

Can I make it anymore obvious?

He was a punk, and she did ballet

What more can I say?

He wanted her, she'd never tell,

Secretly she wanted him as well.

But all of the friends, stuck up their nose,

They had a problem with his baggy clothes.

Chrous: (use these chords during the chorus)

He was a skater boy, she said see ya later boy,

He wasn't good enough for her

She had a pretty face, but her head was up in spaces,

She needed to come back down to earth

Verse

Five years from now, she sits at home,

Feeding the baby she's all alone.

She turns on TV, guess who she sees,

Skater boy rockin' up MTV.

She calls up her friends, they already know,

They've all got tickets to see his show.

She tags along, and stands in the crowd,

Looks up at the man that she turn dooowwnnnn.

Chorus

He was a skater boy, she said see ya later boy,

He wasn't good enough for her.

Now he's a superstar, slammin' on his guitar

Does your pretty face see what he's worth?

He was a skater boy, she said see ya later boy,

He wasn't good enough for her.

Now he's a superstar, slammin' on his guitar

Does your pretty face see what he's worth?

Interlude

(use same chords as the chorus)

Sorry girl but you missed out,

Well tough luck that boy's mine now.

We are more than just good friends,

This is how the story ends.

Too bad that you couldn't see,

See the man that boy could be.

There is more than meets the eye,

I see the soul that is inside.

Verse

He's just a boy, and I'm just a girl,

Can I make it anymore obvious?

He was a punk,and she did ballet

We are in love, haven't you heard?

How we rock each other's world?

Chorus

I'm with the skater boy, I said see ya later boy,

I'll be back stage after the show.

I'll be at out studio, singing the song he wrote,

About the girl you used to know.

I'm with the skater boy, I said see ya later boy,

I'll be back stage after the show.

I'll be at out studio, singing the song he wrote,

About the girl you used to know.

3. I’m With You

Isn't anyone trying to find me

Won't somebody come take me home

5. Mobile

Went back home again, this sucks gotta pack up and leave again

Say goodbye to all my friends can't say when I'll be there again

It's time now to turn around, turn my back on everything

Turn my back on everything

Everything's changing when I turn around

All out of my control I'm a mobile

Everything's changing when I turn around

All out of my control I'm a mobile

Start back at this life, stretch myself back into the vibe

I'm wakin' up to say I'm tried, instead of waking up to another TV Guide

It's time now to turn around, turn and walk on this crazy ground

Ohh everything

Everything's changing when I turn around

All out of my control I'm a mobile

Everything's changing out of what I know

Everywhere I go I'm a mobile

I'm a mobile

Hanging from the ceiling, life's a mobile

Spinning around with mixed feelings, crazy and wild

And sometimes I wanna scream out loud

Everything's changing when I turn around

All out of my control

Everything's changing everywhere I go

Out of what I know, yeah yeah yeah

La la la la la la, la la

La la la la la la, la la

La la la la la la, la la

La la la la la la

Everything's changing when I turn around

All out of my control I'm a mobile

Everything's changing out of what I know

Everywhere I go I'm a mobile

Everywhere I go I'm a mobile

6. Unwanted

Intro

(Stanza 1)

All they did was walk over, start all off by shaking your hands

That's how it went, I have a smile on my face and I sat up straight

All yeah yeah I wanted to know ya I wanted to show you

(Chorus)

You don't know me, don't ignore me

Make me go away

8. Anything But Ordinary

Sometimes I get so weird

I even freak myself out

I laugh myself to sleep

It's my lullaby

Sometimes I drive so fast

Just to feel the danger

I wanna scream

It makes me feel alive

Is it enough to love?

Is it enough to breath?

Somebody rip my heart out

And leave me here to bleed

Is it enough to die?

Somebody save my life

I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

To walk within the lines

Would make my life so boring

I want to know that I

Have been to the extreme

So knock me off my feet

Come on now give it to me

Anything to make me feel alive

Is it enough to love?

Is it enough to breath?

Somebody rip my heart out

And leave me here to bleed

Is it enough to die?

Somebody save my life

I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

I'd rahter be anything but ordinary please.

Let down your defences

Use no common sense

If you look you will see

that this world is a beautiful

accident turbulent suculent

opulent permanent, no way

I wanna taste it

Don't wanna waste it away

Sometimes I get so weird

I even freak myself out

I laugh my self to sleep

It's my lullaby

Is it enough?

Is it enough?

Is it enough to breath?

Somebody rip my heart out

And leave me here to bleed

Is it enough to die?

Somebody save my life

I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

- xx0232 || - x32010

- x02200 ||

I'm tugging at my hair, I'm pulling at my clothes

I'm trying to keep my cool, I know it shows

I'm staring at my feet, my cheeks are turning red

I'm searching for the words inside my head

I'm feeling nervous, trying to be so perfect

Cause I know you're worth it, you're worth it, yeah

If I could say what I want to say, I say I want to blow you away

Be with you every night, am I squeezing you too tight

If I can say what I wanna see, I wanna see you go down on one knee

Marry me today, guess I'm wishing my life away

With these things I'll never say

It don't do me any good, it's just a waste of time

What use is it to you what's on my mind

If it ain't comin out, we're not going anywhere

So why can't I just tell you that I care

Cause I'm feeling nervous, trying to be so perfect

Cause I know you're worth it, you're worth it, yeah

If I could say what I want to say, I say I want to blow you away

Be with you every night, am I squeezing you too tight

If I can say what I wanna see, I wanna see you go down on one knee

Marry me today, guess I'm wishing my life away

With these things I'll never say

What's wrong with my tongue, these words keep slipping away

I stutter I stumble, like I've got nothing to say

Cause I'm feeling nervous, tryin' to be so perfect

Cause I know you're worth it, you're worth it, yeah

Guess I'm wishin my life away

With these things I'll never say

If I could say what I want to say, I say I want to blow you away

Be with you every night, am I squeezing you too tight

If I can say what I wanna see, I wanna see you go down on one knee

Marry me today, guess I'm wishing my life away

With these things I'll never say

These things I'll never say

10. My World

Intro

Please tell me what is taking place,

Cause I can't seem to find a trace

Guess it must have got erased somehow

Probably cause I always forget,

everytime someone tells me their name

It's always gotta be the same (In my world)

Never wore cover up,

always beat the boys up

Grew up in a 5000 population town

Made my money by cutting grass,

got fired by a fried chicken ass

All in a small town Napanee

(Refrain)

You know I always stay up without sleeping

And think to myself

Where do I belong forever

In who's arms the time and place

(Chorus)

Can't help it if I space in a daze

My eyes tune out the other way

I may switch off and go in a daydream

In this head my thoughts are deep

And sometimes I can't even speak

Would someone be and not pretend I'm off again in my world

(Do Intro)

I never spend less than an hour,

washing my hair in the shower

It always takes five hours to make it straight

So I'll braid it in a zillion braids,

so it may take all friggin' day

There's nothing else better to do anyway

(Refrain 2)

When you're all alone in the lands of forever

Lay under the milkyway

On and on it's getting too late out

I'm not in love this time this night

(Repeat Chorus)

Interlude

It takes some time Mellow out,

party it up But don't fall down

Don't get caught sneak out of the house

(Repeat Chorus 2x)

11. Nobodys Fool

Fall back, take a look at me and you'll see

I'm for real, I'll feel what only I can feel and if that don't appeal to ya

Let me know, and I'll go, cause I flow better when my colours show

And that's the way it has to be, honestly

Cause creativity could never bloom in my room, I'd throw it all away before I lie

So don't call me with the compromise, hang up the phone, I got a backbone

Stronger than yours

La la la la la la

La la la la la la

La la la la la la

Yeah yeah yeah yeah...

If you're trying to turn me into someone else

It's easy to see I'm not down with that

I'm not nobody's fool

If you're trying to turn me into something else

I've seen it enough that I'm over that

I'm not nobody's fool

If you want to bring me down

Go ahead and try, go ahead and try

You don't know you think you know me like yourself

But I fear that you're only telling me what I wanna hear

But do you give a damn, understand that I can't not be what I am

I'm not the milk and cheerios in your spoon

It's not as simple here we go not so soon, I might have fallen for that

When I was 14 and a little more green

But it's amazing what a couple of years can mean

Ohhhhhhh

Yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah

If you're trying to turn me into someone else

It's easy to see I'm not down with that

I'm not nobody's fool

If you're trying to turn me into something else

I've seen it enough that I'm over that

I'm not nobody's fool

If you want to bring me down

Go ahead and try, go ahead and try

Ohhhhhh

Go ahead and try, try to look me in the eye

But you'll never see inside, until you realize

Things are trying to settle down

Just trying to figure out

Exactly what I'm about

If it's with or without you, I don't need your doubt in me

If you're trying to turn me into someone else

It's easy to see I'm not down with that

I'm not nobody's fool

If you're trying to turn me into something else

I've seen it enough that I'm over that

I'm not nobody's fool

If you want to bring me down

Go ahead and try, try

Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, ohhhhh

But you'll be laughing out loud, if I played to my own crowd

Try

Go ahead and try

13. Naked

Intro

I wake up in the morning, put on my face

The one that's gonna get me, through another day

Doesn't really matter, how I feel inside

This life is like a game sometimes

Then you came around me, the walls just disappeared

Nothing to surround me, keep me from my

Fears, I'm unprotected, see how I've opened up

Oh you've made me trust

Cause I've never felt like this before

I'm naked around you does it show

You see right through me and I can't hide

I'm naked around you and it feels so right

I'm trying to remember why I was

Afraid to be myself and let the covers fall

Away I guess I never had someone like you

To help me fit in my skin

I've never felt like this before

I'm naked around you does it show

You see right through me and I can't hide

I'm naked around you and it feels so right

I'm naked

Oh oh yeah does it show
