This must be New York

I'm in a subway

On a Wall Street Monday

I've lost direction

This aint my station

I'm calling your name

Won't it ever be the same

Vanilla Fog

Its clouding my mind

I can't make no sense

Of what I left behind

I'm in its suspense

Aint got no defense

Just Vanilla Fog all the time

I can smell its sweetness

Taste its completeness

Its taking all my breath

I got no heart left

You got me spinning

My red eyes are swimming

I'm trapped in your spell

In a switchback carousel. Its

Vanilla Fog

Its thick as your smile

Vanilla Fog

As sharp as your style

I'm drowning in your mystery

And its you got the recipe. Its...

You're sitting at the wheel

My life's on the seat

Can't help but feel we're on a

Dead end street

Just drive on a bit careful

Could be a hard ride

Don't stop for nobody

Stop seeing red lights

Just cos it feels like the wrong way

Driving on dead end street

Chorus:

You're at the wheel, the wheel of my emotions

You're driving hard, driving right through my heart

Can't help but feel I'm headed in the wrong direction

Driving the wrong way, driving on a dead end street

We've been pushing too long

Driving in the fog

I'm getting tired of this

Empty dialogue

You can pull on over

Push me out the side

But you'll still be pointing

At a dead end sign

Chorus

Where its going you'll never know

I see the lights burn in your eyes

Or is it fear of your own night blindness

Drivin the wrong way, driving on a dead end street

Intro: Dm riff

Dm7

Is that a ticket in your hand

Am7

Or are you just saying goodbye

Dm7 Cm7

Did you find a better place

Gm7

To call home

Did a cat cross your path

Tell you where to go

Lead you to a long dream

In a far town

Chorus:

C Gm7 Bb Dm7 Gm7 C Gm7 Bb

Where are you going, (does it have to end)

C Gm7 Bb Dm7 Gm7 C Gm7 Bb

Where are you going, (Will you be back again)

Why leave here in the night

With the stars to light your way

Wait until the full moon

Things might change

You'll need more than silver

A photo from your past

Won't you take a single thing

To remember me

Chorus

Verse Instrumental

Dm7

The roads aint safe at night

Am7

The weather's looking bad

All I see is red lights

(Rap)

Classical intro (based on Corelli trio)

I'm caught in a red web my mind is like a dead fed

Surfing like a nethead lost all my streetcred

My fingers are tapping I don't know what's happenin

Looking for some action dressed like Charlie Chaplin

Peddling in some software breathing in the stale air

Baby's bouncing there with all your freeware

Baby do you dare share or would you care to bare

Sixty seconds staring at your body's hair

This is a real deal I can even hear you squeal

Cyberchicks don't even need a free meal

I got it all for me on my digital TV

And noboby knows but the AT & T

Do you know, do you know how it feels

My love's on line my love is real

I'm in your domain don't even know your first name

Your always the same I'm your newest bestest old flame

Staring like a greek geek my eyes are goin tweak tweak

I'll be your heat seek seven nights a cheap week

You can call me brother I could be your mother

Your only other lover's the DA undercover

Your pic is on my homepage I stole it from your birdcage

It looks like I'm kinda strange and we could be the same age

This is really me don't give me your sympathy

My other car's a super V I could've been a Bruce Lee

So I'm hooked on IT I lied on my CV

And you're on my drive as a amateur JPG

Do you know, do you know how it feels

My love's on line my love is real

Chorus

Verse instrumental

Its plain

What goes around comes around

Your pride. And...

And any fool can see

Bb Cm7 Dm7

So you don't want to have an affair

Don't want to lose all you have there

Your mind's saying that you know it's wrong

You should be sleeping all night long

But you can't control your dreams

Your happy life aint all it seems

And I see you glance my way

You're gonna come back one of these days. And...

Dm7 C

I don't want to mess you around

Cm7 Gm7

Make you cry make those tears come down

Serenade to the moon. But...

I'm hoping you're watching my moves

Bm7 A

Following the rythm of my shoes

Bm7 G

Just don't look into my eyes

Bm7 C G D G D G

You might see my love die. Cos...

Gonna stroll down the old quarter

Dm Em

Where the air's filled with mystic spice

And the old men playing poker dice

Talking 'bout their past

Get some feathers tied up with string

A web of threads made into a ring

Hang it up to the moon tonight

Sleep in the shadow of its light

G Dm

Dreamcatcher

F C G Dm

Bring me a dream that'll change everything

F C G Dm

When I wake there won't be anything

F C G

That I need to know

Catch a dream about falling in love

Where two people meet on the boulevard

Then never want to let go their hands

Till the end of time

Let me wake with my head in a spin

Can't forget where it is I've been

That dream won't escape my mind

I'm gonna keep it safe inside

Dreamcatcher

Bring me a dream that'll ease my soul

Where its alright in the afterglow

Of a summer's day

Am G

Dreamcatcher

Dm Am

Don't tell it how it really is

C Bb

With all the tears and the memories

Of falling apart

Something died in the middle of the night

Gave up its spirit to the sky

And noone said the last rights

Bb C Dm G

Bury it deep

F C G

Don't let it cause you pain

Bb C Dm G

Bury it deep in your heart

F C G

Don't let it rise again

Love can't lie all day in state

Don't lay flowers on its grave

Sing psalms to its memory

Cry when it couldn't be saved

Am7 F

Its legacy won't make you rich

Am7 F

Photographs won't make you wish

Am7 F

You could hold it one more time

C G

Or bring it back to life again

Bury it deep

Where noone'll ever know

Don't let it haunt your past

Bury it deep in your soul

Am F

Blowing 'way my dreams

C G

Don't know where the wind blows

Am

Or what it's seen

C

But I sigh

G

And I try

Em Am

To catch the feeling

F C G

Before it sails away. And the...

F C Am Em F

Wind in the window

G Em Am

Whispers it don't know why

F C Am Em

The wind in the window

F G Am

Don't asks why

Billowing curtains

Tell me let it pass

Shake out those memories

And forget the past

But I sigh

And I try

To see your face

Before it leaves the sky. And the...

Eb Dm7 C

Like the air that I breathe

Eb Dm7 G

The wind won't set me free. And the....

The snow fell deep this year

The fire burns with a warm glow

Stars glitter round a frosty moon

C G F G C F-G C F-G

Your cheatin' ass right out of here

I think you'd look good in red

It'd suit you a bellyful of lead

You won't be dancin' quite so fast

With your leg in a plaster cast

Em Am Em Am

Baby I couldn't hurt the one I love

F G Am

Well maybe a little if you raise my blood

F C G Am

You just keep your sights on my figure

F C G

And I'll keep my finger off the trigger. But...

I got me a Winchester

And my aim is true

Yeh I got me a Winchester

It's pointing right at you

But I don't want to use it

So just don't abuse it

I got you right in my view

So King Alfred what do you see

D A

What's changed now since history

F#m G

We got McDonalds and Park & Ride

D A

Penguins swimming over your graveside

Cathedral's still as firm as a rock

The Guildhall clock still goes tick-tock

Arthur's table still hangs in the Hall

We're safe and sound in your city walls

A

Hey King Alf, and hey Winchester

E G D D7

Here we stand and here we'll stay together

The lights are out

Em7 Bm7

The door is locked

G Am7 Em7

No sounds disturb the lonely sky

D Am7

You’re far away

Em7 Bm7

Dancing the night away

G Am7 Em7

Not knowing how she’s lying awake

D C Em G

And waiting

Am7

Yeh she’s waiting

D C Em D C

Listening for the latch on the door

D C Em D C

Hoping you’ll be back home once more

D C Em G

She’s waiting

Am7

Yeh she’s waiting

She don’t criticise

There’s no need to lie

She makes the bed with just a faintest sigh

Your in your car

Heading east in your car

She’s hoping that it won’t be far

C Em

She won’t make a scene

D C

Won’t let it ever seem

Em D C

Like she’s crying inside

C Em

She’s not spoken to a friend

D C

Not looking for a way to end

Em D C

The pain she feels inside

Get so close that I can tell

What makes your pretty body tick

What gets your heart to beat so quick. Lets put a ...

Night between us

The dark to share together

Take you to my own dreamland. Lets put a ...

Around the stars in a moonlit sky

Cast our spells in the witching hour

Wake inside their magic power. Let’s put a ...

You wooed me

D F#m G A

You beguiled me

D A G A

Made me gasp with your chemistry

D F#m G A

Feel like someone I’d want to be. But...

D A Em F#m

Love aint my friend no more

D A Em

You tricked me with desire.

D A Em F#m

No love aint my friend no more

D A G

You took away the fire

You moved me

Then you fooled me

Made me lose all my dignity

Feel like I’m lost at sea. And...

Am7 Gmaj7

I’m here dying

D A

With a heart that can’t rise again

D A

Faced with a mirror full of pain

Em7

On a lonely shore

Do you like the way I walk

C#m A E B

I know how to dance I know how to talk

I can’t believe you’re all alone here

You must’ve been waiting for me to appear

So you tell me your husbands flown

No kids no debts a house of your own

It sounds like I could make a killing

But I have to tell you I ain’t filling no

A B E F#m

Dead man’s shoes, no

A B E F#m

Dead man’s shoes

C#m B

These boots aint going to waste

C#m F#m

I aint stepping in another man’s place in no

A B E F#m A

Dead man’s shoes

Now I could do with an easy life

And I’m sure you’d make a wondeful wife

But it aint my style to ride round the block

In a truck with miles on the clock

And I’d be asking from time to time

What made the last one head down the line

And ev’ry time I walked down the street

I’d be gazing down at my feet and those...

F#m E

Pretty lady don’t take it to heart

F#m A – E - B

Cupid can’t pierce me with no secondhand dart

I won’t take your name in vain

A G A G

You don’t need tie me up to tame

A G A G

These wild feelings that make me try

A G A G

To hold you firm all through the night

You know I can take you...

A G F G

As hard as you come

A G F G

You know you’re the one

A C G D

Can keep me flowing without end

A C G D

Bring me to heaven and back again

You know I want you....

A G F G

As hard as you come

I can take you all the way

Up first thing till the middle of the day

You aint never gonna wear me thru

My body spreads till the stars are blue

And you know I expect you....

D A

I’ll be wide as the widest sea

C G

And I’ll blow you so you can see

I can take you....

You know there are times

Am F

When the world seems to say

C G

There is only pain

Am Em

And I don’t care anyway

F C

But deep in your soul

G F

Hidden in the maze

Em F G

A voice is whispering your name. And...

C G

Love can take you

Am Em

Back in its arms

Am Em

Love sweet love

F C G

Can keep you safe from harm

You know there are days

When the light never shines

And the rain takes your fire

Makes your hopes fade inside

But behind those clouds

Waiting for a break

The sun knows you will awake. And...

Bb C Dm Am

Don’t wait forever to follow its call

Dm Am G

Open up your eyes and find the door

Bb Cb Dm Am

Don’t turn around and fall into the past

Dm Am G

Reach out and touch its shining heart. And..

Intro: Am7 Dm7-Em7 x3, Am7 Bb

Am7 Dm7-Em7
Summer was almost gone
Am7 Dm7-Em7
When I took your weary hand
Am7 Dm7-Em7
Said lets go swim in the stream
Am7 Bb
Like we’d done when we were young

The sun was low in the sky
The meadow filled with blackberry
Cool strong waters raced over the weir
Into the reach below. It was

Chorus:
C G
Late september
Am – F Em
No time to start a romance
C G
Just a chance to take your hand
Bb
And think what might have been
C G
It was late september
Am – F Em
The night would fall too soon
C G
The sun gave way to the moon
Bb
Before we could fall in love

The cold made you catch your breath
Your breath beat fast against my neck
I held your body close
Stopped the current washing you away

We clung on to hope for a while
The briefest smile in your eyes
Before the long drive home to winter
And lives we didn’t want

Chorus
Intro Instrumental
Chorus
Chorus instr + ad lib vocals

Don’t talk in innuendos

I’m tired of hearing your words

Don’t bore me with your regular verbs those

Sentences I can end without having heard

Bm7 Am7

This is how you can get through

Bm7 Am7

Turn me on with something I can use

C Em Am G F

Body language – Put your thoughts into action

C Em Am G F

Body Language – just stop standing to attention

Dm7 Gm7

Give me something I can latch on

Dm7 Gm7

Let me know what’s going on

C G Dm7

Body language speaks louder than words

Don’t tell me ‘bout your mother

You don’t faze me with your accent

I’m gonna scream if there’s another

Reference to what you thought I meant

Walk that walk or get outta here

Give me a show not perfume for my ear

Bm7 Am7

Body language don’t tell no lies

Bm7 Am7

It won’t make me wander off in the skies

Dm7 Gm7

Just show me what you’re all about

C G Dm7

I don’t need dictation to make me shout

Intro: G Bm7 Em D Em D Am7

G Bm7

I’m getting in too deep

Em D

What started as a gentle roll

Em D

Has turned to a path so steep

Am7

I can’t turn around

I’m not getting any sleep

Lying here thinking of your face

And knowing love don’t come cheap

And it could take everything

I’m getting in too deep

C G

But I don’t know how to stop

G – Bm7 – Em D

This won’t end till the curtain drops

Em D Am7

Yeh I’m getting in too deep

Didn’t mean to go this far

There were no signs along the way

Telling me this magic star

Would take me from my home

And noone ever made a chart

To warn where the dangers lay

And mark where I’d meant to start

And where it would end

Em Bm7

I’m like a bird in a storm

C G

Reason died when the skies moved

C – Bm7 - Em - D

Senses flew when the lightning formed

Am7

And split my heart in two

Am G

Playing in the long grass

Am G

Seeing tigers behind trees

F C Am G

Snakes of wood round my feet

C F C G

My mind a fairy tale of fears

C G

I call your name

Am Em

You come running to my side

F C F C

Strong hands born of strong heart

Am F G

And I’m safe as a newborn child

C F Am

When you’re near

G C F C G

I know nothing can go wrong

C F Am G

And you’ll steer me safely from

C F C G

The dangers waiting all along

Am G

The road that leads me on and on

C F C G

When you’re near

Waking scared in the dark

Shadows dancing on walls

Distant trains threaten loneliness

And I’m crying out down the hall

C G

When the years have passed

Am Em

And you’ve reached that age

C - G - Am

When the strength has flowed from your soul

Em - F G

Filled me up with all the things you know

F C F C

I ‘ll be here to share your pain

Am F G

When the twilight comes you can say again...

Slide silently through moonswept sky

to my door

Make my dreams come alive

Your body sharp as a knife

Against my skin

Am7 Em7

You draw me to your lair

Am7 Em7

Reached through mountains of cold

[Riff]

Wolves are howling stay away

This lover will take your soul

Em D Am7 Am7-D

I’m just playing a part in your Gothic romance

Em D Am7 Am7-D

And its breaking my heart I don’t stand a chance

This story comes from ancient lore

You changed the names made the characters more

appealing

Threw in a little extra gore

Some weird effects that make the ending sure

To horrify

I’ve got the right sort of face

I fitted the misformed cast

At the wrong time in the wrong place

A walk-on role that ends too fast

I’m trying so hard in your Gothic romance

And its tearing me apart doing all I can

Am7 Em7

And when I wake as the credits roll

Am7 Em7

Brought back to life when its time to go

G Gmaj7 Am7/E Am7

I know I won’t regret a thing

G Gmaj7 Am7/E Am7

But part of me is still wishing

G Gmaj7 Am7/E Am7

I could see you again

G Gmaj7 Am7/E Am7

Yeh you can use me once again

This don’t happen ev’ry day

C Dm Em G

Ladies don’t come up and say

C G F G

How you doing lets chat awhile

C Dm Em G

You’re me type and I like your style

Did you take me for someone close

You’re too good looking to need to coast

Women aint so quick to try

Their chance on me and I don’t know why...

C G F G

You’re so good to me

C G F G

Yeh so good to me

C Dm F G

I feel like I could touch you all over

C Dm Em G

I want to hold you close forever

C G F G

You’re so good to me

C G F G

Yeh so good to me

The music’s loud my mouth’s at your ear

But it don’t matter if my words aint clear

Your body’s sliding close to mine

I feel your touch we’re one of a kind

Dm7 G

Why can’t it always be like this

C F

So easy once we get to kiss

Dm7 G

We were meant to be together

C G F G

You make me want to hold you forever

Give me your number and give me your name

I’ll call tomorrow and we’ll meet again

You’ve got me raring to go

I’m in love and I want you to know...

Intro: Em Am7 Em

Em Am7

You’re one of a kind

Em Am7

And I hope you don’t mind

Bm7 Am7 Em

When I look at you

I’m out of line

And you know that I’m tryin’

Not to seem a fool

C Em

But I don’t know where

C Em

No I don’t know where

Am F Am

I’ll find another one like you

You’ve got my soul

And I want you to know

Noone else will do

I don’t expect you knew

And you’d say it wasn’t true

I’m the only one for you

G F C

I don’t care for the rest

Am F

Your just the best

Am F

Noone’s gonna guess

Am F Em

That you feel the same way too

Chorus etc

Its been good, we had some fun

G Bm7 C D

I know we could go on and on

G D C Am

We’ve both gained points, and had a ball

G Bm7 C D

But this thing won’t go nowhere at all. It’s...

Am7 G D

Game over – its time to part

Am7 G D

Game over – bye bye sweetheart

Am7 D

We’ve got to know each other well

Am7 D

Got to kiss but I can tell it’s

Am7 G Am7 G Bm7

Game over for you and me

When we met it was a match

The pitch was set you were my finest catch

We both played clean, it was a tie

But that don’t mean we’d have reached the sky. It’s...

Game over – its time to part

Game over – bye bye sweetheart

The lights are out the crowds gone home

I guess you’ll have to play on your own

We’ll still be friends I’ll see you around

Next season I’ll be wearing a crown. But its...

She’s looking like she floats on air

Gsus4 Dsus4 A+9
She leaves no sign thatshe’s passed through there

A/Gsus4 Em A/Gsus4 Em

I know why she makes no sound

C Em Am G

But you hear sighs all around. Cos she’s

C D Em Am

Walking on broken hearts

C Em Am G

Stepping on the ghosts of the past

C B/G Am G

She shines with a soul of glass

C Em Am G

Cos she’s walking on broken hearts

A/Gsus4 Em A/Gsus4 Em x2

She can drive a man insane

He won’t know till he feels the pain

Then she’s gone with no goodbyes

Left him hurting with tears in his eyes. And she’s..

A/Gsus4 Em A/Gsus4 Em x2

A/Gsus4 Em A/Gsus4 Em

She won’t be back to say she’s sorry

A/Gsus4 Em A/Gsus4 Em

She’s got a data and she’s in a hurry

There’s another man she’s dying to meet

C D A/Gsus4

So just don’t look down at her feet. Cos she’s

Hey woman

This is your chance

D A Em G

Due to unseen circumstance

D A Em G

There’s a place in my heart

Hey woman

This is too good to miss

Turn this down you’re gonna wish

You got in right at the start. There’s a

Situation vacant in my life

Bm7 A G

And I need someone to put it all to right

Bm7 F#m7 G A

The money’s not good and the hours go on all night

Bm7 A G

There’s a situation vacant in my life

Hey woman

You’d better apply

I’m the kind of guy

Who’ll give you benefits in kind

Hey woman

I can already see

There’s things on your CV’d

Place you first in line. There’s a

You’ll stay by my side till we grow old. There’s a

Come back another day

Don’t hang around

Like the last bang in town

Take your hands off mine

Go on head down the line

I’m sick of your face

I don’t want you in my space

Am G

But your hips are telling a different story

F G

Your mouth is shooting but your thighs still want me and...

A-C-G-D

Your body never lies

A-C-G-D

No your body never lies

F D

You’re saying no when you mean OK

F D

You know you’re going all the way

A-C-G-D

And your body never lies

A-C-G-D

No your body never lies

So you ask me to stop

When I’ve nearly reached the top

And your fingers down my spine

Are pulling me inside

Say I’m not your lover

As you pull down the covers

Tell me I gotta pack

When you’re arching your back

And your face is red with passion

I aint so quickly gone out of fashion and...

A-C-G-D

This is some kinda game we’re playing

A-C-G-D

So you can keep me paying and paying

A-C-G-D

Make me push till I’ve gone too far

A-C-G

Then throw me off like some gun for hire. But...

Dm Am7

I’m usually so strong

Dm Am7

Can tell what’s right and wrong

Gm7 Am7

Can see what’s up ahead

Dm Am7

Every time

I play it by the rules

I’m too afraid to lose

And scared to seem a fool

In your eyes

Gm7 Am7

But my heart must have its way

Dm7 Am7

The earth is moving

Dm7 Am7 Gm7

There’s nothing you can say

And here I’m falling

Dm Gm

Feet first in love

Bb Am Gm

My head is saying not again

Bb Eb

So see me falling

Dm Gm

Feet first in love

Bb Am D

Calling out your name in vain

Dm – Am7 x2

I should’ve learnt by now

This is leading only down

I’m gonna be hurt

Like before

I’ve taken all the pain

And its always been the same

But that don’t stop me

Wanting more

And all the tears I’ll cry

Won’t change a thing

They won’t wash my love away
