Standard (EADGBE)

Intro riff

:

The world is collapsing around our ears

I turned up the radio, but I can't hear it.

When I got to the house and I called you out

I could tell that you had been crying, crying.

It's that same sing song on the radio. It makes me sad.

I meant to turn it off, to say good-bye, to leave in quiet

that radio song, hey, hey, hey

I've everything to show. I've everything to hide. Look into my eyes. Listen.

When I got to the show (yo ho ho) I could tell that you had been crying, crying

It's that same sing song, and the DJ sucks. It makes me sad.

I tried to turn it off. To say goodbye, my love,

that radio song, hey, hey, hey

The world is collapsing around our ears

I turned up the radio, But I can't hear it.

Yeah! (baby, baby, baby, baby)

I tried to sing along. But, damn that radio song.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

I've everything to show

I've everything to hide

Look into my eyes listen to the radio

I turned up the radio

But I can't hear it

No, I can't hear it

Hey, hey, hey (say what)

Hey, hey, hey (let me do that with you)

Hey, hey, hey, hey ,hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, (say what, say what, say what)

Hey, hey, hey

Check it out

What are you saying

What are you playing

Who are you obeying

day out day in?

Baby baby baby

That stuff is driving me crazy

DJs communicate to the masses

Sex and violent classes

Now our children grow up prisoners

All their lives radio listeners

LOSING MY RELIGION

Chords list: ------G (2 fr.)

Chords diagram;

Intro

Guitar pass

Oh life is bigger, it's bigger than you.

And you are not me, the lengths that I will go to.

The distance in your eyes.

Oh no, I've said too much, I've said enough.

That's me in the corner, That's me in the spot light,

Losing my religion. Trying to keep up with you.

And I don't know if I can do it.

Oh no, I've said too much, I haven't said enough.

I thought that I heard you laughing.

I thought that I heard you sing.

I think I thought I saw you try.

Every whisper,

Every waking hour, I'm choosing my confessions.

Trying to keep eye on you.

Like a hurt lost and blinded fool, fool.

Oh no, I've said too much. I said enough.

Consider this, consider this hint of the century.

Consider this, the slip, that brought me to my knees pale.

What if all these fantasies come flaming aground.

Now I've said too much.

I thought that I heard you laughing.

I thought that I heard you sing.

I think I thought I saw you try.

Interlude

That's me in the spot light, losing my religion.

Trying to keep up with you. And I don't know if I can do it.

Oh no, I've said too much.

I haven't said enough.

I thought that I heard you laughing.

I thought that I heard you sing.

I think I thought I saw you try.

But that was just a dream, try, cry, why try.

That was just a dream, just a dream, just a dream, dream.

Outro

X=don't play

v=vibrato

LOW

Dusk is dawn is day, where did it go?

I've been laughing fast and slow.

Moving in a still frame, howling at the moon.

Morning found me laughing up and down, down.

Low, low, low.

Night suits me fine, and morning suits me fine.

I've been so happy, happy, way up high, high, in between,

down below. Low, low, low.

I skipped the part about love.

It seemed so silly and low.

Low, low, low.

Low, low, low.

I said the morning, it isn't your time.

Barefoot naked, I can see your lines.

It doesn't bother me, if you are right.

Your grass is grassy wet. Your light white is bright light white. Light.

I skipped the part about love.

It seemed so shallow and low.

Low, low, low

Low, low, low

You and me, we know about time.

We know how things go. They come and go; they live and grow;

They pass and go, and glow and glow.

Up and down, high and low.

Low, low, low.

Low, low, low.

I skipped the part about love.

It seemed so silly and low.

I skipped the part about love.

It seemed so shallow and low.

Low, low, low.

Low, low, low.

I like your hands all full of glory, all full of glory.

NEAR WILD HEAVEN

Whenever we hold each other, we hold each other,

there's a feeling that's gone. Something has gone wrong.

And I don't know how much longer I can take it.

House made of heart, break it.

Take my head in your hands and shake it in this near wild heaven

not near enough (inside, living inside, living inside)

Near wild heaven (living inside, living inside, living inside)

Near wild heaven.

Whatever it takes, I'm giving. It's just a gift I'm given.

Try to live inside. Trying to move inside.

And I always thought that it would make me smarter,

but it's only made me harder.

My heart thrown open wide in this near wild heaven

not near enough (inside, living inside, living inside)

Near wild heaven (living inside, living inside, living inside)

Near wild heaven (living inside, living inside, living inside)

Near wild heaven (living inside, living inside, living inside)

Near wild heaven (living inside, living inside, living inside)

Near wild heaven

I'm holding my hands together. I'm holding my feet together.

I'm holding myself together in this near wild heaven.

not near enough (living inside, living inside)

Not near enough (living inside, living inside)

Near wild heaven

Near wild heaven (living inside, living inside, living inside)

Near wild heaven (living inside, living inside, living inside)

Near wild heaven (living inside, living inside, living inside)

Near wild heaven (living inside, living inside, living inside)

BELONG (from the songbook)

: 3x000x : 3x001x : 3x0033

Intro riff

Her world collapsed early Sunday morning.

She got up from the kitchen table,

folded the newspaper and silenced the radio.

Those creatures jumped the barricades and have headed for the sea, sea.

G5

Oh............

Those creatures jumped the barricades and have headed for the sea.

She began to breathe, to breathe at the thought of such freedom,

stood and whispered to her child, belong.

She held the child and whispered with calm, calm; belong.

G5

Oh............

She stood and whispered to her child, belong.

She held the child and whispered with calm, calm; belong.

G5

Oh............

These barricades can only hold for so long.

Her world collapsed early Sunday morning.

She took the child held tight, opened the window;

a breath, this song, how long, and knew, knew; we belong.

G5

Oh............

G5

Oh............

G5

Oh............

G5

Oh............

HALF A WORLD AWAY

Intro

This could be the saddest dusk I've ever seen

turn to a miracle, high alive.

My mind is racing, as it always will.

My hands tired, my heart aches.

I'm half a world away here, my head sworn to go it alone,

and hold it along, haul it along and hold it.

Go it alone, and hold it along. Oh................

Oh lonely deep sit hollow.

Half a world, half a world away.

My shoes are gone, my life spent.

I've had too much to drink.

I didn't think, I didn't think of you.

I guess that's all I need-ed.

To go it alone, and hold it along, haul it along, and hold it.

Backwards, blackbirds, forwards and fall.

Oh lonely world is wasted.

Pathetic eyes, high alive.

Blind to the tide that turns the sea.

This storm it came up strong.

It shook the trees and blew away our fear.

I couldn't even hear.

To go it alone, and hold it along, haul it along, and hold it.

Go it alone, and hold it along. Oh................

Go it alone, and hold it along, haul it along, and hold it.

Blackbirds, backwards, forwards and fall.

Oh.............. Oh,

this could be the saddest dusk

I ever seen turn to a miracle, high alive.

My mind is racing, as it al--ways will.

My hands tired, my heart aches.

I'm half a world a - way.

TEXARKANA

OPENING

20,000 miles to an oasis.

20,000 years will I burn.

20,000 chances I wasted waiting for the moment to turn.

I would give my life to find it, I would give it all.

Catch me if I fall.

Walking through the woods, I have faced it.

Looking for something to learn.

30,000 thoughts have replaced it, never in my time to return.

I would give my life to find it, I would give it all.

Catch me if I fall.

| | | | | | | |

All alone, waiting to fall.

40,000 stars in the evening.

Look at them fall from the sky.

40,000 reasons for living.

40,000 tears in your eye.

I would give my life to find it, I would give it all.

Catch me if I fall.

Catch me if I fall.

Catch me if I fall.

Catch me if I fall.

COUNTRY FEEDBACK

Intro

This flower is scorched. This film is on, on a maddening loop.

These clothes, these clothes don't fit us right,

and I'm to blame. It's all the same. It's all the same.

You come to me with a bone in your hand.

You come to me with your hair curled tight.

You come to me with positions. You come to me with excuses,

ducked out in a row. You wear me out. You wear me out.

We've been through fake-a-breakdown, self hurt, plastics, collections,

self help, self pain, EST, psychics, fuck all.

I was central. I had control. I lost my head. I need this. I need this.

A paper weight, a junk garage, winter rain, a honey pot.

Crazy, all the lovers have been tagged. Hotline, wanted ad.

It's crazy what you could have had.

It's crazy what you could have had.

It's crazy what you could have had.

I need this. I need this.

It's crazy what you could have had.

It's crazy what you could have had.

I need this. I need this.

It's crazy what you could have had.

It's crazy what you could have had.

I need this. I, I need this.

It's crazy what you could have had.

I need this. I need this.

It's crazy what you could have had.

Crazy what you could have had.

I need this. I need this.

Crazy what you could have had.

Crazy what you could have had.
