Love Me For What I Am 
Tom: F#

           F#
We fell in love
       Ab          
On the first night that we met
Fm
Together we've been happy
  Bbm
I have very few regrets
F#
The ordinary problems
Fm
Have not been hard to face
    Bbm           F#
But lately little changes
          Absus4        Ab
Have been slowly taking place
         Fm
You're always finding
Bbm          F#              G#7sus-Ab7
Something is wrong in what I do
        Fm        Bbm
But you can't rearrange my life
  F#                   Ab
Because it pleases you
Chorus:
F#     Ab  F# C#               Ab
You've got to love me for what I am
    Bbm
For simply being me
      F#
Don't love me for what you intend
   Absus4           Ab
Or hope that I will be
Fm
And if you're only using me
   C         Fm
To feed your fantasy
Bbm
You're really not in love
          F# G#sus Ab      C#
So let me go, I    must be free
            F#
If what you want
      Ab
Isn't natural for me
Fm
I won't pretend to keep you
       Bbm
What I am, I have to be
F#
The picture of perfection
Fm
Is only on your mind
    Bbm           F#
For all your expectations
           G#sus    Ab
Love can never be designed
     Fm              Bbm
We either take each other
    F#            G#7sus-Ab7              
For everything we are
   Fm                   Bbm
Or leave the life we've made behind
    F#        Ab
And make another start
(Repeat Chorus)
Coda: (First 4 lines Chorus Chords)
(Repeat last four lines of chorus)
(Repeat last two lines of chorus)

Hurting Each Other 
Tom: C
     C                                                D
1. No one in the world ever had a love as sweet as my love,
          Am                                                        G
    for nowhere in the world could there be a boy as true as you, love.
          Gm
    All my love, I give gladly to you,
        D                      E

   Tell me, why then, oh why should it be that
      D      Em                   D             Em
    We go on hurting each other, we go on hurting each other,
      Em       D            Em                D
    making each other cry, hurting each other,
           C               ~ ~   D
    without ever knowing  - -  why.
 
       C                                                  D

     Am                                                      G
    closer, dear, are we than the simple letters 'A' and 'B' are.
          Gm
    All my life, I could love only you, 
           D                   E

    We go on hurting each other, we go on hurting each other,
      Em       D            Em             D
    making each other cry, hurting each other,
           C            ~ ~   D     - A
    without ever knowing  - -  why.
 
        D        Em                D             Em
     Can't we stop hurting each other, gotta stop hurting each other,
     Em       D               Em                 D
    making each other cry, breaking each other's heart,
    Em       D         C    - A
    tearing each other apart.
        D         Em                 D             Em
     Can't we stop hurting each other, gotta stop hurting each other,
     Em          D               Em                 D

Love took over my heart like an ocean breeze
Cm Bb                             Dm 
As seagulls fly I knew that I was losin'
Cm   F   Bbm    F                      Bb 
Love was washed away with the driftin' tide

(*) Oh, it's a dirty old shame
Cm                              Fm           G

G           Cm                  D#      Fm            Cm      Bb  F
Because the best love songs are written with a broken heart
Gm                                    F    Dm
And now the tears in my eyes are ever blinding
    Cm                         D#       Bb
The future that lies before me I cannot see
F        Bb                  Dm     Cm  D       Dm 
Although tomorrow I know the sun is rising
G#       Cm               F                 Cm  Bb
Lighting up the world for everyone, but not for me

  a   lonely place

It's nice to know
Dmaj7       G             Asus                D             Dmaj7

Yesterday once more
Tom: C

               C                        Em
1. When I was young I'd listen to the radio,
        Am      C           F
    waitin' for my favorite songs,
              Dm            Em                   Dm    - G
    when they played I'd sing along, it made me smile.
                    C                           Em
    Those were such happy times and not so long ago,
        Am           C           F
    how I wondered where they'd gone.
      E         Am              C      Am
    But they're back again just like a long lost friend,
        F        Dm           G
    all the songs I loved so well.
 
G7        C             Am           C       - Am
Every sha-la-la-la, every wo-o-wo-o still shines,
   C                          Am                   Dm     - G
every shing-a-ling-a-ling that they're startin' to sing's so fine.
      Am                           C              Am
When they get to the part where he's breakin' her heart,
    C           Am   - - - - - - -  C     - Am
it can really make me cry, just like before,
   F             C                 F   - C                      F
it's yesterday once more (shoobidoo-lylay,       shoobidoo-lylay).
 
         C                             Em
2. Lookin' back on how it was in years gone by,
         Am            C       F
     and the good times that I had,
          Dm              Em              Dm           - G
    makes today seem rather sad, so much has changed.
        C                              Em
    It was songs of love that I would sing to then
      Am    C               F
    and I'd memorize each word,
 
       E           Am                       C         Am
    those old melodies still sound so good to me,
                    F         Dm       G
    as they melt the years away.
 
G7        C               Am            C       - Am
Every sha-la-la-la, every wo-o-wo-o still shines,
       C                          Am                        Dm     - G
every shing-a-ling-a-ling that they're startin' to sing's so fine.
 Am                         C          Am
All my best memories come back clearly to me, 
     C           Am   - - - - - -   C     - Dm
some can even make me cry just like before,
 F                C                   F
it's yesterday once more (shoobidoo-lylay).
 
G7        C            Am                      C       - Am
Every sha-la-la-la, every wo-o-wo-o still shines,
             C           Am                         Dm     - G
every shing-a-ling-a-ling that they're startin' to sing's so fine……

    and I can hardly wait        to be with you again.
        Em     - G           C           - G
    What to say,     to make you come again?
                   A      - C                         B7

Goodbye to Love
Tom: G

      - - -   G      Em   Am                 D   
1. I'll say goodbye to love, no one ever cared 
             G      Bm  C                       D
    if I should live or die, time and time again 
           B7                      Em
    the chance for love has passed me by,
      C       G              Am                  G
   and all I know of love is how to live without it,
       B7             Em        - A 
    I just can't seem to find it.
 
G           Am            G               Am 
    So I've made my mind up I must live my life alone,
        G              Am                G                Am
    and though it's not the easy way, I guess I've always known ….
 
       G            Em     Am                   D
2. I'd say goodbye to love, there are no tomorrows 
      G        Bm     C                     D
    for this heart of mine, surely time will lose 
              B7                      Em
    these bitter memories, and I'll find that 
       C       G           Am                   G
    there is someone to believe in and to live for,
      B7         Em         - A
    something I could live for.
 
     G        Am               G                          Am
    All the years of useless search have finally reached an end,
     G    Am           G              Am
    loneliness and empty days will be my only friend,
      C              E        Am                   D   -Am
    from this day love is forgotten, I'll go on as best I can.
 
         G          Am           G              D
    What lies in the future is a mystery to us all,
     G          Am                G                 D
    no one can predict the wheel of fortune as it falls.
        A           Bm               A                      D
    There may come a time when I will see that I've been wrong,
        A                    D
    but for now this is my song.
       A                - E
    And it's goodbye to love.
        A                - E 
    I'll say goodbye to love…………

                                                  G

Son of a gun,  we'll have big fun on the bayou.
 
C                                       G
Settle down far from town get him in a pirogue,
                        G7           C
And he'll catch all the fish in the bayou.
                                    G
Swap his mun  to by Yvonne what she need-oh,
                          G7           C
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou.

The Christmas Waltz
Tom: G
G   G6   C      Am     Am7     Dm7        G7
Frosted window panes, candles gleeming inside,
         CM7  CM7/6         Dm7   G7
Painted candy canes on the tree;
        C       Am        Dm7        G7
Santa's on his way, he's filled his sleigh
       CM7  Am           Dm7         G7
With things,  things for you and for me.
G    G6   C       Am   Am7      Dm7             G7
It's that time of year when the world falls in love;
      CM7     CM7/6          Dm7   G7
Ev'ry song you hear seems to say,
         C9      Am         Dm7       G7         Gdim  A7
"Merry Christmas!  May your New Year dreams come true."
          Dm7      G7           CM7    Am7
And this song of mine in three-quarter time
       Dm7      G7        Dm7  G6     C
Wishes you and yours the same thing, too.

Strangers    in many ways.

We've got a life - time to share

Goodbye To Love
Tom: E
E7   Fdim        A9     A
I'll say good - bye to love;
D9           E7                A       AM7
No one ever cared if I should live or die.
D9            E7        Fdim       C#7               F#m
Time and time again the chance for love has passed me by;
    B7    A               D9     Dm6      A   AM7
And all I know of love is how to live without it --

I just can't seem to find it.
A        AM7     D9     E7      A       AM7   E7 
So I've made my mind up I must live my life alone;

There are no tomorrows for this heart of mine;
D9               E7        Fdim    C#7      F#m
Surely time will lose these bitter memories and I'll 
B7                  A            D9      Dm6     A   AM7
Find that there is someone to believe in and to live for, 
C#7                F#m B7
Something I could live for.
A        AM7     D9      E7           A       AM7       E7
All the years of useless search have fin'ly reached an end
A      AM7     D9     E7       A     AM7    E7
Loneliness and empty days will be my only friend

From this day, love is forgotten -- I'll go on as best I can.

         C              G        G9      Dm7      C
But for now this is my song, and it's goodbye to love

I'll say goodbye to love.

Rainy Days And Mondays
Tom: G
G      G/F#  Em7      Bm7-5   E7
Talking to myself and feeling old;
 Am7                  Bm7    Am7                 D9
Sometimes I'd like to quit, nothing ever seems to fit;
 Em7    Em7/F#   CM7   Am7        D9  D7   G    G/F#
Hanging   a  -  round, nothing to do but frown --

Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.

What I've got they used to call the blues.
Am7                Bm7    Am7                    D9
Nothing is really wrong, feeling like I don't belong,
Em7    Em7/F#   CM7   Am7          D9    D7   G    G/F#
Walking a  -  round, some kind of lone - ly clown --

Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.

Run and find the one who loves   me.

What I feel has come and gone before;
