If You Love Somebody Set Them Free 
Tom: Dm

 

Dm* 		C* 		Am 		G
If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone, you can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me
(Chorus)
Bm7-Bm
If you love somebody
G7-G
If you love someone 
Bm7-Bm
If you love somebody 
G7-G		Am
If you love someone 
Dm* C* Am G 
set them free
If it's a mirror you want, just look into my eyes
Or a whipping boy, someone to despise
Or a prisoner in the dark
Tied up in chains you just can't see
Or a beast in a gilded cage
That's all some people ever want to be
(Chorus)
(bridge)
F4 		F 			C 		 
You can't control an independent heart
F4 		F 			C		 
Can't tear the one you love apart
Gm7				F4 			F 			 
Forever conditioned to believe that we can't live
C					C7 
We can't live here and be happy with less
Gm7			F4 	F 			 
So many riches, so many souls
C 				C7 
Everything we see we want to possess
Dm* 		C* 		Am 		G
If you need somebody, call my name
If you want someone, you can do the same
If you want to keep something precious
You got to lock it up and throw away the key
If you want to hold onto your possession
Don't even think about me
(Chorus)

Shape Of My Heart 
Tom: Em
Em           Bm         Am        B7
He deals the cards as a meditation
C            Bm         Am         B7
And those he plays never suspect
C          C            G        B7
He doesn't play for the money he wins
C          B7       Em
He doesn't play for respect

He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
C              B7                       Em
That's not the shape    The shape of my heart
Now there's a change in key, which goes something like:
Solo
----
And if I told you that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who smile are lost
I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
C               B7         Em
That's not the shape of my heart
C              B7                      Em
That's not the shape   The shape of my heart

This War
Tom: C
Intro: Em 
       C
You've got the mouth of a she wolf
           Am
Inside the mask of an innocent lamb
             Em
You say your heart is all compassion
                   Dsus2/F#           G
But there's just a flat line on your cardiogram
        Am                        C
Yet you always made a profit baby
                             Em
If it was a famine or a feast
             C
Yes, I'm the soul of indiscretion,
      Am
I was cursed with x-ray vision,
        Em
I could see right through all the lies you told,
         Dsus2/F#            G
When you smiled for the television
            Am                    C
And you can see the coming battle
                                   Em
You pray the drums will never cease
            Am                        C
And you may win this war that's coming
                                 Em
But would you tolerate the peace?
       D     G   C  Am
OoHooHoooooHoooHoooooo
  D
Investing in munitions
          G
And those little cotton flags
          C
Invest in wooden caskets
            Am                           G Em
In guns and body bags, guns and body bags
     C
Your daddy was a businessman
       Am
And it always made good sense
             Em
You know the war can make you rich my friend
   Dsus2/F#            G
In dollars, pounds and cents
       Am                       C
In the temple that was Mammon's
                                   Em
You were ordained the parish priest
          Am                       C
Yes you may win this coming battle
                                 Em
But could you tolerate the peace?
       D     G   C  Am
OoHooHoooooHoooHoooooo

OoHooHoooooHoooHoooooo
  D
Invest in deadly weapons
          G
And those little cotton flags
          C
Invest in wooden caskets
            Am  
In guns and body bags
       D
You're invested in oppression
          G
Investing in corruption
                C
Invest in every tyranny
                             Am    G Em
And the whole world's destruction 
  G                 Em
I imagine there's a future
             G                Em
When all the earthly wars are over
        G                  Em
You may find yourself just standing there
       G               Em
On the white cliffs of Dover
        G                 Em
You may ask, what does it profit a man
            G                          Em
To gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his soul?
             G                   Em
Is that your body you see on the rocks below
       G              Em
As the tide begins to roll?
        Am                      C
And you invested in this prison
                                 Em
From which you never got released
             Am                          C       
You may have won this war we're fighting
                                 D  G  C  Am
But would you tolerate the peace?
       D     G   C  Am
OoHooHoooooHoooHoooooo

There's a war on our democracy

A war on our dissent

There's a war inside religion

A stone's throw from Jerusalem

I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight
Am                    Am/C
And through a million stars were shining
F                      E7
My heart was lost on a distant planet
Am                     Am/C
That whirls around the April moon
F              E7
Whirling in an arc of sadness

I'm lost without you

I'm lost without you

Though all my kingdoms turn to sand

I'm mad about you

I'm mad about you
Am                   Am/C
And from the dark secluded valleys
F                   E7
I heard the ancient songs of sadness
Am               Am/C
But every step I thought of you
F              E7
Every footstep only you
Am               Am/C
And every star a grain of sand

The leavings of a dried up ocean

Tell me, how much longer?     How much longer?

They see a city in the desert lies
F                        E7
The vanity of an ancient king
Am                   Am/C
But the city lies in broken pieces
          F                  E7
Where the wind howls and the vultures sing
Am                     Am/C
These are the works of man
F                         E7
This is the sum of our ambition
Am                     Am/C
It would make a prison of my life
Bm7b5                   E7
If you became another's wife

With every prison blown to dust

My enemies walk free

Felt more alone than I do now

Although I claim dominions over all I see

It means nothing to me

There are no victories

In all our histories, without love
 
Am                     Am/C
A stone's throw from Jerusalem
F                 E7
I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight
Am                    Am/C
And through a million stars were shining
F                      E7
My heart was lost on a distant planet
Am                     Am/C
That whirls around the April moon
F              E7
Whirling in an arc of sadness
    Am              Am/C
I'm lost without you

I'm lost without you

Send Your Love

Send your love   into the future

Send your love   into the distant dawn
 
Am
Inside your mind is a relay station
A mission probe into the unknowing
We send a seed to a distant future
Then we can watch the galaxies growing
This ain't no time for doubting your power
This ain't no time for hiding your care 
You're climbing down from an ivory tower
You've got a stake in the world we ought to share
You see the stars are moving so slowly
But still the earth is moving so fast
Can't you see the moon is so lonely
She's still trapped in the pain of the past 
This is the time of the worlds colliding
This is the time of kingdoms falling
This is the time of the worlds dividing
Time to heed your call
 
           Dm  F          Am    C 
Send your love  into the future
                   Dm   F                   Am   C

                       Dm  F                        Am     C
And fix that wounded planet  with the love of your healing

Send your love   Send your loooooooove 
 
Am  
There's no religion but sex and music

There's no religion but sound and dancing

There's no religion but line and color
There's no religion but sacred trance

There's no religion but the endless ocean 
C
There's no religion but the moon and stars
F
There's no religion but time and motion
There's no religion, just tribal scars
 
Am
Throw a pebble in and watch the ocean
C
See the ripples vanish in the distance
F
It's just the same with all the emotions
It's just the same in every instance
 
Am
There's no religion but the joys of rhythm
C
There's no religion but the rites of Spring
F
There's no religion in the path of hate
No prayer but the one I sing

Send your love  into the future

Seven Days  
Tom: C
 
 
Cmaj7
"Seven days" was all she wrote
   D#         A#
A kind of ultimatum note
     G               F         Fadd9
She gave to me, she gave to me
 
 
Cmaj7
When I thought the field had cleared
    D#            A#
It seems another suit appeared
     G            E
To challenge me, woe is me
 
 
 Cmaj7
Though I hate to make a choice
    D#            A#              G
My options are decreasing mostly rapidly
 F             Fadd9
Well we'll see
 
 
Cmaj7
I don't think she'd bluff this time
   D#             A#
I really have to make her mine
      G
It's plain to see
      E        E7
It's him or me
 
 
 Fmaj7  Fmaj7/F#           G
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday

If I make up my mind
 Fmaj7              G     E7/G#            Am
Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind
F#7-5/nr        Am    F#7-5/nr
Friday give me time, Saturday could wait
     Fm              Cmaj7
But Sunday'd be too late
 
 
Cmaj7
The fact he's over six feet ten
      D#               A#
Might instill fear in other men
     G              F                  Fadd9
But not in me, The Mighty Flea (flee?)
 
 
Cmaj7
Ask if I am mouse or man
     D#               A#
The mirror squeaked, away I ran
       G            E
He'll murder me in time for his tea
 
 
Cmaj7
Does it bother me at all
    D#        A#            G
My rival is Neanderthal it makes me think
   F                   Fadd9
Perhaps I need a drink
 
 
Cmaj7
IQ is no problem here
   D#                 A#              G
We won't be playing scrabble for her hand I fear
   E             E7
I need that beer

Seven days will quickly go

The fact remains, I love her so
A#         F
Seven days, so many ways
A#              Cmaj7
But I can't run away

Do I have to tell a story
      A#                                Cmaj7  A#
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met
       Cmaj7
It's a big enough umbrella
         A#                             Cmaj7  A#  C
But it's always me that ends up getting wet

I don't drink coffee I take tea my dear
G         A                 Bm7
I like my toast done on the side
G                         A             Bm7
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
       G      A          Bm7
I'm an Englishman in New York
   
G      A                  Bm7     G         A               Bm7
See me walking down Fifth Avenue, a walking cane here at my side
G         A            Bm7          G      A          Bm7
I take it everywhere I walk, I'm an Englishman in New York
Chorus

O-ho I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien

I'm an Englishman in New York

I'm an Englishman in New York
G           A              Bm7
If "manners maketh man" as someone said
G             A           Bm7
Then he's the hero of the day
G          A             Bm7
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
   G           A                Bm7
Be yourself no matter what they say ->Refrain
D                      A         A7
Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
Bm7                          F#
You could end up as the only one
G                        A
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
   G                                  Bm7
At night a candle's brighter than the sun
G               A              Bm7  
Takes more than combat gear to make a man
G               A             Bm7
Takes more than license for a gun
G             A         Bm7    
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
  G              A              Bm7
A gentleman will walk but never run    
repeat first verse & Chorus

 

Be Still My Beating Heart
Tom: Am7
Am7
Be still my beating heart
It would be better to be cool
It's not time to be open just yet
 
A lesson once learned is so hard to forget
Be still my beating heart
Or I'll be taken for a fool
It's not healthy to run at this pace
The blood runs so red to my face
             D            E
I've been to every single book I know
   F(add9)                  D/F#         G
To soothe the thoughts that plague me so 
Dm7                             Em
I sink like a stone that's been thrown in the ocean
   F                      G
My logic has drowned in a sea of emotion
Dm7                      Em
   Stop before you start
                   Am7
Be still my beating heart 
Be still my beating heart
You must learn to stand your ground
It's not healthy to run at this pace
The blood runs so red to my face
             D            E
I've been to every single book I know
   F(add9)                  D/F#         G
To soothe the thoughts that plague me so
Dm7 Em F G
Dm7                      Em
   Stop before you start
                   Am7
Be still my beating heart 
C
  Never to be wrong
Am7                   F
  Never to make promises that break
C
  It's like singing in the wind
Am7                    F
  Or writing on the surface of a lake
      Am
And I wriggle like a fish caught on dry land
                          D/A
Struggle to avoid any help at hand 
  Dm7                           Em
I sink like a stone that's been thrown in the ocean
   F                      G
My logic has drowned in a sea of emotion
Dm7
  Stop before you start
Em                   Am7
  Be still my beating heart

D7/A               G#dim            Gmaj7    Em7          Bm7
Why? She must have asked did I just turn and stare in icy silence?
D7/A          Db7/G#           Gmaj7/-5   F#7/+5         Bm7

               A13/-9        Am6                       E7/G#

G6                  Cmaj7        Dbm7/-5       F#7/+5             Bm7
Vague and drawn and sad I see it still all her heartbreak in that last look
D7/A               G#dim              Gmaj7    Em7          Bm7

D7/A          Db7/G#           Gmaj7/-5  F#7/+5         Bm7
What was I to do, what can you do when a love affair is over

Drying in the colour of the evening sun

Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away

But something in our minds will always stay 
Perhaps this final act was meant

To clinch a lifetime's argument 
   B7                                             Em 
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could

For all those born beneath an angry star 
    B7                        Em 
Lest we forget how fragile we are 
C                   B7 
On and on the rain will fall 
  Em 
Like tears from a star, like tears from a star 
C                  B7 
On and on the rain will say 
     Em 
How fragile we are, how fragile we are 
(Em Am B7 Em) 
C                  B7 
On and on the rain will fall

Like tears from a star, like tears from a star

On and on the rain will say

How fragile we are, how fragile we are 
How fragile we are, how fragile we are...

Seven Days  
Tom: Cmaj7
Cmaj7
"Seven days" was all she wrote
   D#         A#
A kind of ultimatum note
     G               F         Fadd9
She gave to me, she gave to me
Cmaj7
When I thought the field had cleared
    D#            A#
It seems another suit appeared
     G            E
To challenge me, woe is me
 Cmaj7
Though I hate to make a choice
    D#            A#              G
My options are decreasing mostly rapidly
 F             Fadd9
Well we'll see
Cmaj7
I don't think she'd bluff this time
   D#             A#
I really have to make her mine
      G
It's plain to see
      E        E7
It's him or me
 Fmaj7  Fmaj7/F#           G
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday
   E7/G#         Am
If I make up my mind
 Fmaj7              G     E7/G#            Am
Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind
F#7-5/nr        Am    F#7-5/nr
Friday give me time, Saturday could wait
     Fm              Cmaj7
But Sunday'd be too late
Cmaj7
The fact he's over six feet ten
      D#               A#
Might instill fear in other men
     G              F                  Fadd9
But not in me, The Mighty Flea (flee?)
Cmaj7
Ask if I am mouse or man
     D#               A#
The mirror squeaked, away I ran
       G            E
He'll murder me in time for his tea
Cmaj7
Does it bother me at all
    D#        A#            G
My rival is Neanderthal it makes me think
   F                   Fadd9
Perhaps I need a drink
Cmaj7
IQ is no problem here
   D#                 A#              G
We won't be playing scrabble for her hand I fear
   E             E7
I need that beer
 Fmaj7  Fmaj7/F#           G
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday
   E7/G#         Am
If I make up my mind
 Fmaj7              G     E7/G#            Am
Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind
F#7-5/nr        Am    F#7-5/nr
Friday give me time, Saturday could wait
     Fm              Cmaj7
But Sunday'd be too late
A#               Cmaj7
Seven days will quickly go
A#                   Cmaj7
The fact remains, I love her so
A#         F
Seven days, so many ways
A#              Cmaj7
But I can't run away
 Fmaj7  Fmaj7/F#           G
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday
   E7/G#         Am
If I make up my mind
 Fmaj7              G     E7/G#            Am
Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind

Friday give me time, Saturday could wait
     Fm              Cmaj7
But Sunday'd be too late
      Cmaj7
Do I have to tell a story
      A#                                Cmaj7  A#
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met
       Cmaj7
It's a big enough umbrella
         A#                             Cmaj7  A#  C
But it's always me that ends up getting wet
Great song, hope you'll like it :)

Danzan con sus esposos
Ellas danzan solas

A scientific means to bliss
          Bm6      Bm5+   Bm
Will supersede the human kiss
        Bm7+  Bm7
A sub atomic chain
           Bm6   Bm5+    Bm
Will maybe galvanize the brain
     Bm7+    Bm7  
A biochemic trance
      Bm6  Bm5+   Bm
Will eliminate romance
       A
But why ever should we care
          G                 Em
When there are arrows in the air
          G                  
Formed by lovers' ancient art
   (E     Bm)
That go straight to my heart (BIS)
             Bm7+     Bm7
A future sugar coated pill
                Bm6   Bm5+    Bm
Would give our lovers time to kill
                       Bm7+     Bm7
I think they're working far too much
            Bm6   Bm5+ Bm
For the redundancy of touch
A
But what will make me yours
      G               Em
Are a million deadly spores
          G                 
Formed by lovers' ancient art
     (E    Bm)                    A D
That go straight to my heart (BIS)
     G    A     G D
Come into my door
       G            A   G D
Be the light of my life
     G     A        G D
Come into my door
             G        A               G D
You'll never have to sweep the floor
     G     A       G D
Come into my door
       G        A      G D
Be the light of my life
     G    A      G D
Come into my door
        G   A      G A
Come and be my wife
     G   F#4
I'll be true  
To no one but you
          Bm    Bm7+      Bm7
If it's a future world we fear
           Bm6     Bm5+        Bm
We have tomorrow's seeds right here
                  Bm7+        Bm7
For you can hold them in your hand
            Bm6   Bm5+   Bm  
Or let them fall into the sand
    A                   
But if our love is pure
          G                   Em
The only thing of which we're sure
      G                    
Then you can play your part
     (E  Bm)               
And go straight to my heart (BIS)
           Bm     Bm7+
If I should seek immunity
            Bm7    Bm6  Bm5+ Bm
Seek nothing if you not see
            Bm7+          Bm7
So then the only thing to do
             Bm6     Bm5+     Bm 
Is for me to pledge myself to you
         A                 
But they only dealt one card
        G            Em
So for me it is not hard
             G
You're the bright star in my chart
    (E  Bm)
You go straight to my heart
Come into my door........
