BALKAN (Azra)

G Am C Em …

Jednog dana nema me da nikada ne dođem

Prijatelje koje znam ne poznajem kad prođem

Kao da me nikada na svijetu nije bilo

Kao da me njezino tijelo nije htilo

Moja pjesma miruje a furala bi furke

lepe dekle moderne ne padaju na žurke

Brijem bradu brkove da ličim na Pankrte

Još da imam fendera vidio bi svirke

Balkane, Balkane, Balkane moj

Budi mi silan i dobro mi stoj



Mi smo ljudi cigani i sudbinom prokleti

Uvijek netko oko nas dođe pa nam prijeti

Ni bendovi nisu više kao što su bili

Moj se amaterski priprema da sviri

FA FA FA (Azra)

Ti i ja lutamo kroz noć D G

potmulo je stenjao moj grad Em Am

Ispred nas put bez povratka D G

daleko se čula muzika na na na na na na na

Ulica hladna, bešćutna,

nezgodno se voljeti na njoj

GODINE PROLAZE (Bajaga)

G C G

Sećam se slike ja, Am F

od pre par godina, C G C

na slici proleće i sunčan dan.

U bašti mirisa

cvetovi irisa

šarena hartija i ti i ja.

Sećam se slike ja

pre jedno mjesec dva.

Na slici septembarski vreo dan.

Na reku uzdaha

sunce se ne vrača.

Zelena obala i ti i ja.

Godine prolaze nervoznim korakom.

Godine prolaze, mi stojimo.

Jesmo li sretniji, jesmo pametniji?

Godine prolaze, mi gledamo.

NA VRHOVIMA PRSTIJU (Bajaga)

Am G C E …

Te noči dok su pevali

veliki modri talasi,

na vrhovima prstiju

na moje srce stala si.

Hteo sam di ti pokažem

gde nebo more preseca,

da vidiš ribe srebrne,

što lete oko meseca.

Aaa...iskre lete.

Koraci ko laki oblaci,

skoči, nek te zemlja odbaci.


zvone tiho zlatni praporci.


hajde, hajde treba ti.

šaljem ti tajne poruke dahom noćnih vetrova

jos želim da ti poklonim listove divljeg kestena

jos jednom da te žaštitim dok te magla zaklanja

TAMARA (Bajaga)

C G

Ispred teatra Balšoj a F

Ja sam te čekao satima

Tvoj beli hrt Berzoj

Je lajao na vratima

Na -26 Moskva je tonula u mrak

Ja sam se topio ko sneg

Kada ga staviš na dlan

a G a

Tamara, čekanje me strašno zamara G a

Bele noči vetar šamara G F

A tebe nema

Tamara, nikad nije bilo tužnije

Da smo samo malo južnije

Negde dole južno

A ja sam bio strašno kul

I nisam padao na fore

Dali je tako bilo hladno

I mornarima iz Aurore

Ma da si bila lepša od Neve I razkošnija od Jermitaža

Ne bi te čeko ni Žilber Beko

To bi za njega bila blamaža

Tamara, čekanje me strašno zamara

Bele noči vetar šamara

A tebe nema

Tamara, nikad nije bilo tužnije

Da smo samo malo južnije

Negde dole južno

LED S SEVERA (Big Foot Mama)

Da ne bom nikol' pristou

Glih zdej plavam čez oblak

In me reže težek zrak

Al bo sonce, al bo sneg

Mene grab nervozn smeh

Rad bi ujel le njeno dlan

Da ne odplavam predaleč stran

Dnevi niso rok'n'roll

Ampak vedno tišji mol

Oči mi grize mrzu led

Samo jaz vidim njeno sled

Umikam se, da jo ne mot'

Ampak izpadem idiot

Zato pa jadram u ekstrem E E

Da spoznam tist, kar že vem D

Prou dobr' vem

Trgam zlato jabolko

Lohk bi rezu mavrico

Čuvam sonce in nebo

In to res sam' za njo

A vse to spremla črn ptič

In mi zmeri vse unič'

Zato pa jadram u ekstrem

Da spoznam tist, kar že vem

AL' SE NEKAD DOBRO JELO (Đorđe Balašević)

Nema više dobri svete, one lepe še'setpete

Kad smo bili na svečari' kod kumova naši' stari'

Klizio je voz ko sanke, al' smo stigli do Palanke

Severac je duvo 'ladan, pa ko ne bi bio gladan

(dabome).

I ćim smo stigli, viknu kum svoju ženu

Sido, postavljaj, bog te vid'o.

Spremila nam kuma naša, za užinu paprikaša

Pa kolače, kremenadle i par sarmi svakom

Mesto leba, mesa bela, princes krofne, vangla

cela

Suvi' šljiva i variva i rezance s makom.

E, kad se samo setim, al' se nekad dobro jelo baš.

(Pa da, znas kako se klopalo)

Do večere vreme kratko, za kiflikez i za slatko

Da odbiješ, to ne vredi, da se kuma ne uvredi

Nas kum Pera dipl. agronom, reč o ovom, reč o

onom

Sve uz vino Portogize, di gutljaji sami klize.

Taman šmo bili gladni, kada se zaću

Sido, večeru, bog te vid'o.

Odjedared astal šaren, sos paradajz, krompir

varen

Fine šnicle ko promincle, kara batak svakom

Na podvarku ćurka, zna se, di je ćurka, tu je

prase

Ondak torte razne sorte i rezanci s makom.

E, kad se samo setim, al' se nekad dobro jelo

baš.

Vejao je sneg po soru, sedeli smo do pred zoru

Pava reče, deder kaput, radni dan je, 'ajmo na

put (nema tu, jel' da)

Al' kum Pera o'ma' skoči, šta to vide moje oči

Sido, ne daj nikom kaput, prvo fruštuk, ondak

na put.

Ne drema vredna kuma, ne sluša prve petle

Brža je od raketle.

Nosi vruče leba kriške, feferone, čvarke friške

Zaćas sprema šunke, 'rena i pihtije svakom

Pitamo i' ljudi dokle, kažu čekaj, još dve nokle

Pa štrumfrudle i dvi štrudle i rezanci s makom.

E, kad se samo setim, al' se nekad dobro jelo

baš.

I ondak sat i frtalj tako, kol'ko iš'o sinobus

Nismo ništa jeli

I kad smo stigli na stanicu

Odma' kupimo burek lep, frišak, mastan

Sve nam onako mast curila niz bradu

Pa ondak opalimo preko toga jednu tepsiju

šampita

I gajbu piva mlakog, crnog.

BOŽA ZVANI PUB (Đorđe Balašević)

C (A)

Ovo je priča koju vrlo rado pričam

To je priča o Boži zvanom Pub

Jedni ga hvale, drugi žale, treći kažu, e moj brale G (E)

Taj je bio kvaran kao šupalj zub. F (D) C (A)

Odavde, pa sve do Pešte i do Srema na jug F (D) C (A)

Još priča bajke o njemu mutni kockarski krug F (D) C (A)

I kažu, taj u životu nije igr'o na dug G (E) C (A)

I svi se slažu kako danas nema takvih kao Boža

Pub.

Negde je imao imanje, to se znalo više-manje

Mada o tom nije prič'o ni za lek

Treb'o je biti veterinar, al' je ter'o neki inat

Pa je živeo od kocke ceo vek.

O, taj je pratio karte ko da vidi kroz njih

I uvek hladan ko špricer i uvek opasno tih

I samo kad tera maler, on bi rekao stih

I svi još pamte reči kojim maler tera Boža zvani

Pub.

F (D)

Džaba vam novci, moji sinovci C (A)

Džaba vam bilo dobre volje F (D)

I pogledi čvrsti i lepljivi prsti C (A) G (E)

Al' ja ipak varam malo bolje, e pa da. F (D)

Al' karta je kurva, izvin'te me što psujem C (A)

Ja samo pričam onako kako čujem G (E) C (A)

I ako su lagali mene i ja lažem vas F (D)

Tu priču zna svako od vraga do popa C (A)

Jer mnogi su mangupi ostali tropa G (E)

I kockar se krije i čući u svakom od nas C (A)

I čeka pravi čas.

Jednom se kart'o s nekim ruskim emigrantom

To je bio lihvar bogat kao knez

Igr'o je i upravnik pošte zvani Ljupče od

milošte

I neki švercer kog je jurio sav srez.

Uh, to je partija bila, još se priča o njoj

Kibiceri u transu, 'ladan probio znoj

Na stolu kamara para, da ne spominjem broj

I povuk'o je damu na osamnaest mrtav-ladan

Boža Pub.

A znate l' za ono kad je s izvesnim baronom

Igro čet'ri dana, to je bio rat

Išle ga stalno karte jake, pa je odneo i fijaker

Crnog konja, tabakeru, štap i sat.

Baron je pričao posle da je špil bio star

Da je previše pio, da ga poneo žar

Pa svi što gube se ljute, to je poznata stvar

I svatko gubi bar ponekad, ali nikad Boža

zvani Pub.

Džaba vam novci…

Sa švalerske strane nije spad'o u Tarzane

Al' daleko od tog da je bio zec

Im'o je neke tu i tamo, al' svi vrlo dobro znamo

Da kod žena igra neki peti kec.

Ljubav je igra u kojoj često ne pali blef

Srce se otvara teže nego najbolji sef

Im'o je on svoje dame: karo, pik, herc i tref

I bio im je veran sve do sudnjeg dana Boža

zvani Pub.

Gospodo draga, on je nestao bez traga

I to celoj priči daje čudan ton

Neki se džambasi kleli da su kod Sombora

sreli

Jednog tipa što je bio isti on.

Možda ga odvela karta ćak u Prag ili Beć

Već dugo niko o njemu nije čuo ni reč

Dal' se još drži na svetu il' je predao meč

Pa s anđelima navrh neba igra raub, preferans i

ajnc.

Džaba vam novci…

ĆALATEVA PESMA (Đ. Balašević)

Am

Ne pitaj me nikad više, zašto neven ne miriše, Am A7 Dm

ne sjećam se, to je priča duga. G

Ne pitaj me tu pred svima, šta to na dnu čaše ima. C

Ne pitaj me nikad, zašto cugam.

E

Bolje da šešir nemam, Am G

pod njime đavo drema, sneva i izvoljeva. C Bdim

Đavo mi je kriv

Dm Am

Budi me u zlo doba, za njega red ne važi. E Am A

On mora sve da proba, to đavo vino traži.

Dm Am

Ne pijem što uživam, nit što mi dobro stoji. E Am

Pijem, da njega napojim.

Ne pitaj me, neznam kaz’ti, di će koja zvezda pasti,

di će pasti dugme s mog kaputa.

Ne pitaj me što na kraju svi kerovi za mnom laju.

Ne pitaj me nikad, zašto cugam.

Bolje da šešir nemam,

pod njime đavo drema, sneva i izvoljeva.

Đavo mi je kriv.

Budi me u zlo doba, za njega red ne važi.

On mora sve da proba, to đavo mesto traži.

Ne lutam što uživam, nit miris druma volim..

Lutam, da njega umorim.

Ne pitaj me, dal je zima,

dok po rosi s ciganima brilijante za kravatu biram.

Ne pitaj me zašto ptice ne sleću na svake žice.

Ne pitaj me nikad zašto sviram.

Bolje da šešir nemam,

pod njime đavo drema, sneva i izvoljeva.

Đavo mi je kriv.

Budi me u zlo doba, za njega red ne važi.

On mora sve da proba, to đavo pesmu traži.

Ne sviram što uživam, nije to pesma prava..

Sviram, da njega uspavam.

DEVOJKA SA "ČARDAŠ" NOGAMA (Đorđe Balašević)

Am Dm Am E Am

Nosila je jelek svileni kao u pesmi narodnoj Dm Am E C

I krstić, znak na lanćiću, da nekog čeka navodno E Am E Am

O, to su bili svatovi, sve kičeni i zlaćeni Dm Am E F

A mi smo bolje svirali neg sto smo bili plaćeni Am

Al dobro sad

Nosio sam šal od kašmira

I prsluk protkan tajnama

Baš od takvih su je čuvale

Tetke sa ladnim trajnama

Ko srna me je gledala

Žalosnom pesmom sluđena

Čije si, pile pirgavo

Što nisi meni suđena, eee

C G

Hej, pusti kose pune polena Dm C E

Ajde, baš u inat babarogama C G

Opla, digni suknju iznad kolena Dm C E

Znam da kriješ čardaš u tim lepim nogama

Rekoh joj beži, mani se

I traži bolje partije

Premala je moja tambura

Da te od kiše sakrije

Rekoh joj : Ja sam samo tu

Da vreme brže proleti

Ja nosim čizme skitaljke

Mene je teško voleti...badava

Hej, pusti kose pune polena

Ajde, baš u inat babarogama

Opla, digni suknju iznad kolena

Znam da kriješ čardaš u tim lepim nogama

Hej, doleti mala senice

Tu, na moje zlatne čivije

Vatra šara moje zenice

Razbij nešto i zaigraj ludo, divije

14

DIVLJI BADEM (Đorđe Balašević)

Am E

Vrteli se točkovi mog bicikla. Dm E Am

Gde god je stao taj rulet beše premija. Am E

Smakla se o stepenik njena štikla. Dm E Am A7

Nekad su pogledi bili čista hemija.

Dm G

Dobro je počela nedelja, C Am

poslednje pripreme za maturu. Dm E

Virili smo u daljine Am

puni nade.

Preko gimnazijskog bedema,

k'o pravi dekor za avanturu

prosuo je nežni purpur

divlji badem.

Poneli nas vetrovi k'o maslačke.

Jedni su leteli lako, drugi padali.

I curice su postale prve mačke

a loši djaci odjednom svetom vladali.

Sve mi je odlično zvucalo.

Dobro sam stajao tih sezona.

Ljuljale mi oči širom

promenade.

A nju sam sretao slučajno,

uvek je s pogrešnim bila ona,

ali znao sam da sanja

onaj badem.

Stane sve u strofu - dve u baladi:

pustinja prošlih minuta i poraza na sat.

I pred treć'i refren već' nismo mladi.

Ušla je nedavno sama u kafe "Petrograd".

Suviše tajni u očima,

u zlati okov joj prstić' pao.

Molio me dugi pogled

da je kradem.

Dovraga, kafa je gorčila,

al' taj sam ukus odnekud znao:

probao sam jednom davno

divlji badem.

15

JESEN STIŽE, DUNJO MOJA (Đ. Balašević)

Am C G

Toga jutra sam stigao putničkim klasom, Dm Am F G Am

pa kući sa stanice časom kroz bašte i prečice znane. Am C G

A u vojsci sam stekao druga do groba Dm Am F G Am

i hroničnu upalu zgloba, suvenir na stražarske dane. G C F G C

Ušao sam na prstima, mati beše več budna i brzo se prekrstila. G C F G

Reče: prošlo je ko za čas, baš si stigao dobro, C E F

jer svatovi su tu do nas, pa će ti svirati a ti češ birati.

Svatba beše ko svatba i što da se priča,

parada pijanstva i kiča i poznata cura u belom.

Več po redu poželih im zdravlja i sreče,

iz ruku mi otela cveče i sakrila pogled pod velo.

Tad me spaziše cigani,

kum je tražio pesmu, al ja sam stigo, briga njih.

Širok osmeh i zlatan zub,

znam, da nije ti lako, al danas nemoj biti grub,

nego zapovedi, šta čemo svirati.

E Dm

Svirajte mi Jesen stiže, dunjo moja, jesen rana, G C

nek zazvone tambure u transu. Dm E Am C

Znam, da nije pesma ova za veselje i svatovac, Dm G C

al ja moram čuti tu romansu.

Svirajte mi Jesen stiže, dunjo moja, al polako,

da mi ne bi koja reč promakla.

Sklon'te čaše i bokale, razbio bi sve to čale,

da je samo slučajno od stakla, dunjo moja.

Retko dolazim kuči, a pišem još ređe

i slike su bleđe i bleđe, pa lepe odtiskuju ružne.

Al nekad poručim piče i tako to krene,

a stignem u svatove njene, sve prave su ljubavi tužne.

Nikom ne pričam o tome,

brzo dođe taj talas i znam, da ću da potonem.

Spas mi donose cigani,

oni imaju srce za svakog od nas, briga njih,

i ne pitaju, šta da sviraju.

Svirajte mi Jesen stiže, dunjo moja, jesen rana,

nek zazvone tambure u transu.

Znam, da nije pesma ova za veselje i svatovac,

al ja moram čuti tu romansu.

Svirajte mi Jesen stiže, dunjo moja, polagano,

da mi ne bi koja reč promakla.

Sklon'te čaše i bokale, razbio bi sve to čale, da je samo slučajno od stakla, dunjo moja.

LEPA PROTINA KČI (Đ. Balaševič)

a e

Još sam bio sasvim mlad C G

Neke barske ptice sam lovio tad d a E

Kad je došla da se kupa a

Lepa protina kči

Nije znala, gde sam ja

da je gledam krišom kroz trsku i šaš

a preko reke noč je pala kao plašt

d G C

Mesec ptinja nad Vrbakom d G C

Srebri nebo zvezda roj d G C E a

Kapi vode kao biseri C E

koji blistaju svud po njoj

O sve ludo, ludi sni

več se moji drugovi momčili svi

a ja sam hteo samo jednu

lepu protinu kči

Čudnom pesmom zvoni drum

Te su zime svatovi došli po nju

Iz daleka neki svet za mene tuđ

Baš sam prešao sokakom

padao je prvi sneg

I još ponekad zazvone praporci

što je odnese ko zna gde

Da se ženim imam kad

ja sam eto ostao momak do sad

nikad više nisam sreo

lepu protinu kči

Jedan život miran, tih

nekad bacim kartu il napišem stih

Stvari teku, ja se držim izvan njih

I ljubim dobre, ljubim lake

neke prave, a neke ne

I sve su vile i sve su kraljice

I sve su nevažne naspram nje

17

MIRKA (Đorđe Balašević)

Am G

Čuli ste za "Zlatni bokal" F

To je jedan sumnjiv lokal C

Al' je kuvar pravi as Am G

Sedeo sam sam za stolom F

Pio viski s coca-colom C

Kada zaćuh neki glas

Am G

Znam Vas, pardon, s televizije Am G

Vi ste ponos naše vizije Am G

Moja kći od devet godina F

Sve vaše pesme zna G

Vaš svaki stih, pa reče:

C F

Mirka, ljubavi jedina moja ti G

'Ko te sada dirka C

I 'ko ti pod prozore dolazi F G

Da ti svirka C F

Mirka, možda bi i sretno živeli C G

Samo da si ti našla pravi put F C

Do mog tužnog srca

Na te reči izvanredne

Ponudih da sa mnom sedne

Čekao je samo to

Reče: "Ja sam iz orkestra

Ta što peva mi je sestra

Tu smo već mesec i po

Mi Vas ne bi maltretirali

Al' bi nešto sad odsvirali

To je jedan šlager lično naš

Želimo čuti Vas cenjeni sud", pa reče:

Mirka...

Rekoh da ću im pomoči

Kol'ko je u mojoj moći

Ali ja sam pevač tek

Reče: "I svi su producenti

Promašeni dirigenti

Nitko od njih nema šmek

I mi već godinama sviramo

Al' strašno slabo prosperiramo

Poslušajte još jedanput bar

Ovo je prava stvar, veliki hit, pa reče::

Mirka...

Pričali smo posle dugo

O muzici, šta bi drugo

Popili smo o-ho-ho

Ja od tada slabo radim

Stvarno nije da se vadim

Al' je razlog tačno to

Ta mi se interpretacija

Javlja k'o halucinacija

Proganja me, muči, vraća se

Uvek k'o bumerang taj smešni, divni refren:

Mirka...

MOJA PRVA LJUBAV (Đ. Balaševič)

A

Tad još nisam ništa znao

i još nisam verovao, D

da na svetu tuge ima E

Jedino mi važno bilo,

da postanem levo krilo A

il' centarfor školskog tima

Kad sam iznenada sreo

najtoplijeg leta deo

to su njene oči bile

Imala je kose plave

i u njima navrh glave

belu mašnicu od svile

Bm

Prva je ljubav došla tiho, A A A#m Bm

nezvana, sama Bm

Za sva vremena sakrila se tu E

negde duboko u nama

Kad je prošlo đačko vreme

Padeži i teoreme

i stripovi ispod klupe

Nije više bila klinka,

počela je da se šminka

i da želi stvari skupe

Tako mi je svakog dana

bila na sve više strana

slutio sam što me čeka

Pa sam prestao da brinem,

kako da joj zvezde skinem

Postala mi je daleka

Prva je ljubav...

Danas je na sedmom nebu

kažu mi da čeka bebu

Našla si je drugog, sreču, dom

Ima muža inženjera,

pred kojim je kariera

i mesto u društvu visokom

Ja još kradem dane bogu,

ja još umem, ja još mogu

da sam sebi stvorim neki mir

Još sam sretan što postojim,

pišem pesme, zvezde brojim,

još sam onaj isti vetropir

Prva je ljubav...

NEKI NOVI KLINCI (Đ. Balašević)

Am ‚ C G

Moj deda več dugo ore nebeske njive, Dm Am

ali baka još čuva sve stvari i sliku našeg sveca. Am ‚ C G

Na dan, kad sam rođen, tu je posađen orah Dm Am

I u avli i pod gustom krošnjom sad igraju se deca. F

Neki novi klinci E

Neki novi klinci Am

Neki novi klinci

Kroz maglu treperim, 9 sveča na torti,

kad sam imao par mandarina I malog belog zeca.

U maju još uvek zriju komšijske bašte,

ali trešnje I zelene kajsije kradu druga deca.

Neki novi klinci...

Moj drugar Milutin, druga klupa do vrata

ima klinca od četiri i po i uči ga da peca.

Ponekad ga sretnem, mahne kroz prozor kola,

a u porti za loptom sad jurcaju neka druga deca.

Neki novi klinci...

A ja, ja se kockam s prevarantom životom

iz rukava on svakoga dana izvuče nekog keca.

I stariji mi kažu, sad si u pravom dobu,

a u ulici Jovana Cvijića rastu druga deca.

Neki novi klinci...

NE LOMITE MI BAGRENJE (Đ. Balaševič)

a

Verujem, cenjeni sude, C

da dobro poznaješ ljude G

Vi barem imate posla, F a

Jer čud je čud, a sud je sud

Verujem, cenjena glavo,

da si i učio pravo

Da svakom sudiš pošteno F a E

Jer čast je čast, a vlast je vlast

F

I sve po zakonu, G

zato sam prvi ne bi bilo ove krvi, C

da je bilo sve po zakonu E F

Vlast je vlast, i ja to poštujem G

Tu su paragrafi pa zagrabili C

Nek isto je i đavolu i đakonu, E

pa nek se zna...

Nek su mi gazilli njivom,

mojom se sladili šljivom

Uvek je lopova bilo

Jer čuk je čuk, a vuk je vuk

Nikada zlotvora dosta,

kiša mi uništi bostanj

I led se prospe pred žetvom

Al led je led, a red je red

I prekardašilo, imao sam bagremovu šumu

tamo dole prema Drumu, pa sam čekao

Red je red, polako komšije

ne može samo da se uđe, da se ruši tuđe, lepo

sam rekao:

d

Ne lomite mi bagrenje E a

Bez njih če me vetrovi oduvati C G

Pustite ih, moraju mi čuvati d a

jednu tajnu zlatnu kao dukati d

Ne lomite mi bagrenje

a

Pod njima sam je ljubio E a

Bosonogu i odbeglu od sna

Ljudi smo, cenjeni sude,

pa rekoh: bude šta bude

žao mi marama crnih

al plač je plač, a mač je mač

Ne pitaj šta bi sad bilo,

kad bi se ponovo zbilo

Ne pitaj, dali se kajem

Jer jed je jed, a red je red

I sve po zakonu,

tu su paragrafi pa zagrabi pošteno

i za veru i za neveru

Red je red, sve ja to poštujem

Jer više bilo bi ubica,

nego ptica, koje odleče ka severu

Ne lomite mi bagrenje

bez njih če me vetrovi oduvati

Pustite ih moraju mi čuvati

jednu tajnu zlatnu kao dukati

Ne lomite mi bagrenje,

pod njima sam je ljubio

Pa zar moram, da vam ponovim:

okanite se njih, jer sve ču da vas polovim

21

NE VOLIM JANUAR (Đ. Balašević)

Am E Am

Ne volim januar i bele zimske bragove C G C

U svakom snegu vidim iste tragove Dm Am

Tragove malih stopa, broj 30 F E Am

i ko zna kako polako odlaze.

Više ne prolazim ulicom dositevom

i nemam pojma, kad neko pita, gde je to

Tih 206 koraka, dužine tog sokaka,

nikad ja nisam brojao.

C G

Nisam te nikad čuvao, E Am

nisam te nikada mazio, pazio. C G

Tvoju sam ljubav gazio, E Am

svemu smišljao broj.

Nisam te nikad štedeo

i nisam umeo stati i ostati.

Šta će od mene postati,

mali anđele moj.

Ne gledam filmove iz ranih 70e

dosta je suza i rastanaka nesretnih.

Ko takve stvari sniva,

baš čudnog sveta ima.

Tako se lako razplačim...

22

ODLAZI CIRKUS (Đorđe Balašević)

E Am

Odlazi cirkus iz našeg malog grada E F

Širokim drumom što izlazi na most E Am

Odlazi cirkus i ja se pitam sada Dm G C

Ko je domaćin, a ko je bio gost E Am

Nestaje cirkus u širokoj ravnici E F

U kišnoj noći za njim se srebri trag E Am

Odlazi fakir i artisti na žici Dm G C

I tužni pajac što bio mi je drag

E F

Dal' je sve bilo samo fol G C

Dal' je sve samo jeftin trik E F

Il' sve te maske kriju bol G C

I neki sasvim drugi lik

Pričaće deca o svetlima arene

Vežbaće krišom kod kuće neki štos

Ali već sutra čim prođe neko vreme

Samo će retko pomišljati na to

Ostaće okrugli trag na mestu šatre

Tu gde se hrvao s tigrom hrabri Grk

I par plakata, na njima gutač vatre

Kome će klinci već nacrtati brk

Dal' je sve bilo samo fol

Dal' je sve samo jeftin trik

Il' sve te maske kriju bol


Am F

Laku noć, dame i gospodo Dm E

Eto i ova predstava je završena

Nadam se da ste uživali u njoj

Bilo je zadovoljstvo glupirati se za vas

Sve ove godine

Nadam se da ćemo se još videti

U nekom drugom gradu, na nekoj drugoj

predstavi

U nekom drugom cirkusu

Odlazi cirkus iz našeg malog grada

Širokim drumom što izlazi na most

Odlazi cirkus i ja se pitam sada

Ko je domaćin, a ko je bio gost

Odlazi cirkus, za sve je bolje tako

Mnogi su predstavu shvatili do sad

Nove pajace će masa naći lako

Jer drugi cirkus ce doći u nas grad

E F

Ma sve je bilo samo fol G C

Sve je to samo jeftin trik E F

I sve te maske kriju bol G C


Pa ipak...laku noć, prijatno

O KAKO TUŽNIH LJUBAVI IMA (Đorđe Balašević)

C F

Profesor Lukić sa četvrtog sprata,

je živeo prilično sam.

A decu je učio ljubavne pesme,

sonete i šta ti ja znam.

d G C

O kako tužnih ljubavi ima, baš nešto

razmišljam: a F G

njegova žena, Lukić Milena, s drugim je otišla. d G C Am a

O kako tužnih ljubavi ima, ovaj svet je ispunjen

njima, d G F C

sve više sumnjam da neko sretno i voli još.

A gospodja Ruža je radila goblen

i subotom igrala tač.

Od muža joj ostalo par žutih slika,

oficirska kapa i mač.


razmišljam:

poručnik Bata, iz prvog rata, nije se vratio.


njima,


a G

Pišu romane, pesme, novele, a G

o tome kako ljubav uvek nadje put. a G

Znam neke sive, tužne hotele F G

i neke prazne sobe gde je uvek onaj strašni mir.


razmišljam.

Dal' je i naša tu medju njima, brinem se

ponekad.


njima,


Andjelija Prokić je čekala princa

i njegovu čarobnu moć,

da joj otplati kredit, da joj napravi klinca,

da je voli do kasno u noć.


razmišljam:

njen suprug Bane, noći i dane, nije se treznio.


njima,


A kad se jednom, u dva i deset,

vratio kući željan ljubavi i sna,

našao pismo, pao u nesvest,

žena mu s Lukićem iz prve strofe pobegla u

noć.


razmišljam.

Dal' je i naša tu medju njima brinem se

ponekad.

O kako tužnih ljubavi ima, ovaj svet je

ispunjen njima,

OPROSTI MI KATRIN (Đ. Balašević)

Am Dm

Na stanici u Puli, pod vrelim suncem leta, E Am

ja sam čekao autobus i svirao gitaru.

Tad sela je kraj mene, i piala da l' smeta,

i znam li dobar hotel u Rovinju il' Vrsaru.

G F

Oprosti mi Katrin, možda nisam bio fin, Am

mada si mi bila draga. G F

Oprosti mi Katrin, sve je sada samo dim. E

Našoj ljubavi ni traga.

Još reče da je stigla tog jutra iz Dižona.

Odvedoh je u mali restoran s dobrom klopom.

Uz senviče i kafu, onako iz fazona,

Predložih joj da dalje krene sa mnom auto-stopom.

Oprosti mi Katrin...

A sutra, sve je bilo k'o da se dugo znamo.

Na plaži joj, na poklon, izronih morskog puža,

i nije rekla ništa. Nasmešila se samo.

I pružila mi ruke kao sebe da mi pruža.


I mahala mi dugo sa prozora vagona

i pisala mi posle, da pamti sunce juga.

I zvala me u jesen, da dođem do Dižona,

al tamo ne bi bila ista, nego neka druga.


25

PRIČA O VASI LADAČKOM (Đ.Balašević)

Am E Am

Znate priču o Vasi Ladačkom C G C

i ja sam je tek onomad čuo Dm Am

Jednom devet dana nije izlazio iz birtije E Am

kažu, da je bio čudne sorte.

Otac mu je bio sitni paor,

hranio je devet gladnih usti.

Mati mu je bila plava,

tiha, nežna, jetičava,

umrla je s 30 i nešto.

Imali su par jutara zemlje,

malu kuču na kraju sokaka

na stolu malo hleba,

taman tol’ko, kol’ko treba,

al je Vasa hteo mnogo više.

C G C G

Želeo je konje vrane, po livadi razigrane, Dm E Am

sat sa zlatnim lancem i salaše. C G C G

Želeo je njive plodne, vinograde blagorodne, Dm E Am

u karuce pregnute čilaše. E Am

Ali nije mogo, da ih ima.

Voleo je lepu, al sirotu.

Uzo bi je samo da je znao.

Voleš jednom u životu,

sad bogatu il sirotu,

to ne bira pamet, nego srce.

Sve se nado, da će ljubav proči,

zanavek je otišo iz sela,

nikad nije piso nikom,

venčo se sa birašđikom,

jedinicom, čerkom nekog gazde.

Dobio je konje vrane, po livadi razigrane,

sat sa zlatnim lancem i salaše.

Dobio je njive plodne, vinograde blagorodne,

u karuce pregnute čilaše.

Sve je imo, ništa imo nije.

Propio se, nije prošlo mnogo,

dušu svoju đavolu je prodo.

Znali su ga svi birtaši,

tražio je spas u čaši,

ali nije mogo da ga nađe.

Mlad je, kažu, bio i kad je umro

sred birtije od srčane kapi.

Klonula mu samo glava,

ko da drema, ko da spava,

i još pamte što je zadnje reko:

Đaba bilo konja vranih, po livadi razigranih,

đaba bilo sata i salaša.

Đaba bilo njiva plodnih, vinograda

blagorodnih,

đaba bilo karuca, čilaša.

Kada nisam s onom, koju volim,

kada nisam s onom, koju volim..

26

PROVINCIJALKA (Đ. Balašević)

Dm E Am

Rekli su mi, da je došla iz provincije, Dm E Am

strpavši u kofer snove i ambicije Dm E

Drug je studirao sa njom, Am F

pa smo se najzad sreli ona i ja. Dm F E Am

Shvatih, bože, oj sazvežđe za nju, provincija.

Srce stade kao dete, da se otima,

tražili smo se po predhodnjim životima.

Postavih iza sebe svet, zablude, promašaje koji tište,

prosto, lako, ko neko beznačajno pristanište.

Dm E Am F

O, da mi je, da se još samo jednom zaljubim, C E

opet bih uzeo kostim večnog dečaka. Dm E Am F

I opet bih smilio kako da prodangubim, Dm E Am

dok ona ne sleti niz hodnik studenjaka.

Gorda naspram podsmeha i spletki poslednjih

Usamljeni galeb iznad mora.

Posred njih reči bi sve pokvarile,

samo se ćutke pokraj mene stisle.

Sami, svojim, izbeglice iz bez smisla.

O, da mi je, da se još samo jednom zaljubim,

opet bih gledao niz kej, kao niz prugu.

I opet bih znao da se u oblak zadubim,

i čekao bih samo nju, ni jednu drugu

27

RAČUNAJTE NA NAS (Đ. Balaševič)

Am

U ime svih nas iz 50 i neke C G

za zakletvu Titu ja spevo sam stih Dm Am

Ne spominjem prošlost, ni bitke daleke, G F E

jer rođen sam tek posle njih

Al život pred nama još bitaka skriva

i preti nam preti, ko duboki vir

Ja znam, da nas čeka još sto ofanziva

Jer moramo čuvati mir

Računajte na nas

C G

Sumnjaju neki, da nosi nas pogrešan tok, Dm Am

jer slušamo ploče, i sviramo rock C G

Al negde u nama je bitaka plan Dm E

i kažem vam, šta dobro znam: Am

Računajte na nas

U nama je sudbina budučih dana

i možda se netko i plaši za nju

Kroz vene nam protiče krv partizana

Jer mi znamo, zašto smo tu

Računajte na nas

Sumnjaju neki, da nosi nas pogrešan tok,

jer slušamo ploče, i sviramo rock

Al negde u nama je bitaka plan

i kažem vam, šta dobro znam:

Računajte na nas

28

RATNIK PAORSKOG SRCA (Đ. Balaševič)

Am C

Kada se braca devetnajste vrno G E

z dalekog fronta die Soldatt je bio

Pričo nam kako ga strefilo zrno

pa zavrto rukav i to pokazivo

Dm E Am

A mi, a mi smo bili derani Dm E Am

a mi, mi smo bili derani

Pričo nam braca o mirisu mora

i o patroli od koje je bežo,

pa kako je opsovo nekog majora

i zbog toga posle na robiji ležo

A mi, a mi smo bili derani


C G

Pričo nam kako je prešo Karpate E Am

zujali meci ko rojevi pčela C G

Reko je rat vam je krvav, da znate E Am

Al mi nije žao ni ljudi ni sela E Am

Hej, žao mi konja

Kada se braca devetnajste vrno

svake je večeri pričo na šoru,

kol'ko je curica usput prevrno

i kako topovi livade ore



I čim braca korak iz avlije kroči

skupi se društvo iz našeg sokaka

Pa svi smo imali velike oči,

prepuna srca i maštu dečaka

Pa da, jer mi smo bili derani


Psovo je braca i krivce i žrtve

puške i vaške i rov, prepun blata

Reko je: “Ne mož izbrojati mrtve,

jer su se carevi igrali rata.

Ej, žao mi konja.”

Nekde u braci je paorski koren

i može rata i rata da bude

kad nije paor za soldata stvoren,

volije konje i zemlju neg ljude


i sve još je vredjelo za nas

Hej, hej, konji beli, nebom terani

kroz san i kroz oblake u kas

29

REQUIEM (Đorđe Balašević)

a C F

Kad god prođem ulicom sa tvojim imenom G C

Pomislim na onu pesmu G d E

Već je godinama ne pevam a F

Stari refren nikom ne treba E F E

A ljudi pesme kratko pamte a

Komandante

Ostat će u knjigama i priča o nama

Balkan krajem jednog veka

Svako pleme crta granicu

Svi bi hteli svoju stranicu

Tope se snovi kao šante

Hej komandante G C G

Na barikadama su opet zastave d E a

Svet ide ko na praznike G C G

I decu izvode s jutarnje nastave d E a

Da vide gladne radnike d E

A gde smo mi naivni a a/F? a/E? a/D? a/C?

Što smo se dizali na 'Hej Sloveni' d a E

Kao da smo uz tu priču izmišljeni

Vremena su nezgodna za momka kao ja

Koji gleda svoja posla

Jer nisam lutak da me naviju

Imam samo Jugoslaviju

Sve druge baklje bez mene plamte

Ej, komandante

Na barikadama su opet zastave

Svet ide ko na praznike

I decu izvode s jutarnje nastave

Da vide gladne radnike C E

I svi su tu da dobiju a E a

na toj lutriji G C G d

Na barikadama su uvek najbrži, al nikad E a

i najmudriji

A gde smo mi naivni

Što smo se dizali na 'Hej Sloveni'

Kao da smo uz tu priču izmišljeni a

I prevareni

Kad god prodjem ulicom sa tvojim imenom

Pomislim na onu pesmu

Bacit će se tako neki lik

Kamenom i na tvoj spomenik

Jer sve se menja

I sve teće

Čoveče

SAMO DA RATA NE BUDE (Đorđe Balašević)

Dm A Dm

Pijani momci prolaze A Dm

Duž naše tihe ulice F C

Oni u vojsku polaze Gm Dm

Prate ih tužne curice A# A

Brinu ih slutnje sulude Dm

Da rata ne bude

Ne mogu da me ne sete

Suze navrh tvog nosića

Devetsto osamdesete

Ulice Brane Čosića

I voza crnog ko da s njim

Zauvek odlazim A Dm

Znaš šta, neka mora sve potope F C

Nek se gleceri rasture F

Večni snegovi otope F# Gm Dm

Pa šta, neka kiše ne prestaju A

Neka gromovi polude Dm

Samo da rata ne bude

Zna šta, nek se groblja preokrenu

Nek se zvezde uznemire

Nek se planine pokrenu

Pa šta, vetri nek pomahnitaju

Nek se vulkani probude


Ko zlatni prah

Oreol sna oko malenih glavica

I tvoja ljubav vrednjiva

Čuva ih kao lavica

Loše te vesti uzbude

Da rata ne bude

A Dm

Znaš šta, neka mora sve potope F C

Nek se gleceri rasture F

Večni snegovi otope F# Gm Dm

Pa šta, neka kiše ne prestaju A

Neka gromovi polude Dm


Zna šta, nek se groblja preokrenu

Nek se zvezde uznemire

Nek se planine pokrenu

Pa šta, vetri nek pomahnitaju

Nek se vulkani probude



Ludila medju ljudima

Veliki nude zablude

Plaše nas raznim čudima

I svakoj deci naude

SVE JE DOBRO, KAD SE DOBRO SVRŠI (Đ. Balašević)

C F C

Lana je vozila sanke, G C

a ja sam pravio sneška. C F C

Dugo sam plačao danke G C

zbog jednog Laninog smeška.

F C

Bili smo klinci, bilo je hladno G C

i sneg je padao krupan F C

Te sam se zime zatreskao gadno, G C

ko pravi pubertetski tupan.

Lana je volela cveće,

a ja sam voleo Lanu.

Korak od tuge do sreće

u jednom jedinom danu.

Prošlo je proleće, leto i jesen,

ko nežni ljubavni sonet.

Ja sam još bio u glavnom zanesen,

ko leptir vihorom gonet.

Lana je pratila modu,

a ja sam pratio Lanu.

Ljubavi dođu i odu,

al Lana je uvek u planu.

Ima detalja za koje baš ne znam,

dal mogu u pesmu da stanu.

Jer Lana je imala muža,

a ja sam imao Lanu...

U RAZDELJAK TE LJUBIM (Đorđe Balašević)

E a d

Kad je pre mnogo leta bal pravio baron, G C

Fon Ligenštul je pozvan da naidje i on. E a d

Čim uš'o je u salu onako lep i mlad, G C E

prišla mu neka dama, i uzviknula tad:

a

"U razdeljak te ljubim, d

svim žarom srca svog, G

jer hoću da poludim C E

zbog razdeljka ti tvog.

U razdeljak te ljubim,

jer želim da se zna,

zbog njega razum gubim,

zbog njega nemam sna."

Fon Ligenštul je hitro napustio taj bal,

želeći da, pre svega, eskivira skandal.

Al' već sledećeg dana ponovilo se zlo,

Stiglo je njeno pismo, na kom je pisalo:

"U razdeljak te ljubim,

svim žarom srca svog,

jer hoću da poludim

zbog razdeljka ti tvog.

U razdeljak te ljubim,

jer želim da se zna,

zbog njega razum gubim,

zbog njega nemam sna."

Fon Ligenštul je bio zbunjen stvarima tim.

Izgubio je živce. Promen'o se sasvim.

I poč'o je da traži u alkoholu spas,

mesto miševa belih, prividj'o mu se glas:

"U razdeljak te ljubim…."

Nije mi srce plašljiva srna. C B Em B

Ipak se borim, ipak se nadam. Sve manje letim, sve više padam. Em Am B

I sve su jače ruke, što me vuku dnu.

Možda će žena svilenog bedra,

koja me zove i pruža ruke,

uliti vetar u moja jedra,

do nove žene, do nove luke.

Život je more...

RUDEČI CVET (Beneški fantje)

D

V laseh nosila rožo je rudečo, A

kot živi ogenj rožo plamenečo. E A7

Vabile modre so oči sanjave D

dekle z gore Kadore, Kadore, Kadore.

Mlad hribolazec je prišel v planine,

dekle prelepo je takoj zasnubil.

Zapeli v ranem jutru so zvonovi,

up je vedi Kadore, Kadore, Kadore.

D A D

Rudeči cvet ljubezen je razvnel, A D

dekle odpeljal je v prelepi čarobni svet

Kadore, Kadore, Kadore.

Po dolgih letih pa očeta vpraša:

„O dragi oče kje je mati moja?”

„Odšla je tvoja mati v hrib Kadore,

da ti prinese rožo rudečo, rudečo.”

Ko je prišla na pisane livade,

lepoto njeno gora je opazila.

Kadore se je vanjo zaljubila,

več se ne bo vrnila.

Rudeči cvet ljubezen je razvnel,



Odtlej pa nosi rožico rdečo

v laseh še njena mala hčerka zala.

Da fanta mladega bo tam spoznala,

ko pojde v hrib Kadore, Kadore, Kadore.

Tako ljubezen se naprej ponavlja,

združuje srca v belem pajčolanu.

Pomladi spet cvetejo rdeče rože,

vabijo v hrib Kadore, Kadore, Kadore.

Rudeči cvet ljubezen je razvnel,

V vrtcu je vsak dan.

Ko prvič prišel si skoz’ vrata nasmejan,

Prevzel me je občutek – »vse lahko ti dam«,

Zdelo se mi je, da pač tak’ si strašno sam,

Da rabiš nežno dlan.

Am7

Hvala za vijolice, Dm

Torbe, čevlje, vrtnice, G

Vse parfume, ogrlice. Cadd9

Kaj pa tvoje srce? E7

Kaj pa tvoje ime?

Hvala za počitnice

In prekratke vikende,

Verze mal’ pocukrane.

Kaj pa tvoje srce?

Kaj pa tvoje ime?

Alojz Podre, mojster za vse, G7 C

venem brez radosti, radosti. Am C

Fleten kvartir, preste in pir E Am

Pesem in smeh sanje so le. E Am

Mlade oči, dolge noči, E Am - G

kratek poljub, kratka mladost.

Šel bom na pot, daleč od tod,

daleč od mafije, mafije.

Alojz brez vas, v prostor in čas,

v leta brez žalosti, žalosti.

Štempelj in pol, služba in pol,

osem ur brez skrbi, brez skrbi.

Zrase mi sin, zrase mi hčer.

Leta prevesijo se v večer.

Takrat za hip, za bežen utrip,

vrne mi čas ta pesem za vas.

Alojz Podre, mojster za vse,

mojster za mafijo, mafijo.

Alojz Podre, kriv si za vse.

venem brez radosti, radosti.

ŠKANDAL V RDEČEM BARU (M. Brecelj)

Am C

V rdečem baru, v sobi rdeči, D/F F E

s kroglo v glavi, z dušo v sreči.

Slišali so strel in videli obraz v krvi.

Škoda, bil je mlad, ta je to sezono prvi.

Prvi tak škandal, ki spravlja nas

in rdeči bar ob dober glas.

V rdečem baru, v sobi rdeči,

s kroglo v glavi, z dušo v sreči.

Skrijte ta obraz, dve gospe sta omedleli.

Skrijte uprt nasmeh, madež rdeč čez madež beli.

Škoda, bil je svež, ta je to sezono prvi.

Lani pa na vrvi trije so končali, tak škandal,

ki spravlja nas in rdeči bar ob dober, dober, dober glas.

Škoda bil je lep, lahko bi bil pri njej,

tako pa fej, umivamo ga stare babe.

Oblečen v pražnje gre, odhaja v kraj pozabe.

V rdečem baru, vobi rdeči,

Plešemo spet z dušo v sreči.

Skrijte mi obraz, gospa, v kožo mehko.

Čuden, oster mraz, to je bil moj prvi, prvi moj mrlič,

ki spravlja nas in rdeči bar ob dober, dober, dober glas,

ki spravlja nas in rdeči bar ob dober, dober, dober glas.

NE DAJ SE, INES (A. Dedić)

Am Dm

Ne daj se, Ines,

Ne daj se godinama, Am

moja Ines, drugačijim pokretima E

i navikama,

jer još ti je soba topla;

prijatan razpored i rijetki predmeti. Dm G

Imala si više ukusa od mene. C F Dm

Tvoja soba - divota - F E

gazdarica ti je u bolnici.

Uvijek si se razlikovala Am

po boji papira svojih pisama, Dm

po poklonima,

pratila me slijedečeg jutra oko deset

do stanice. Am

I ruši se zeleni autobus E

tjeran jesenjim vjetrom, kao list, Am

niz jednu beogradsku padinu. Dm

U vječernjem sam odjelu

i opkoljen pogledima. E

Ne daj se, mladosti moja, Am Am Dm Am

ne daj se, Ines.

Dugo je pripremano naše poznanstvo

i onda, slučajno, uz vruću rakiju

i sa svega nekoliko rečenica

loše prikrivena želja.

Tvoj je način gospođe

i obrazi seljanke

Prostakušo i plemkinjo moja!

Pa tvoje grudi, krevet,

i moja soba, obješena u zraku

kao naranča,

kao narančasta svjetiljka

nad zelenom i modrom vodom Zagreba;

Proleterskih brigada 39, kod Grković.

Pokisla ulica od prozora dalje i šum

predvečernjih tramvaja.

Ljepi trenuci nostalgije,

ljubavi i siromaštva,

upotreba zajedničke kupaonice i

- molim vas ako me tko traži...

Ne daj se, Ines - evo me,

ustanem tek da okrenem ploču.

Da li je to nepristojno u ovakvom

času, Mozart, Requiem, Agnus Dei.

Meni je ipak najdraži početak.

Razpolažem s još milijon nježnih i

brezobraznih podataka naše mladosti,

koja nas pred vlastitim očima vara,

krade i napušta.

Ne daj se, Ines,

poderi pozivnicu, otkaži večeru,

prevari muža odlazeći da se počešljaš u

nekom boljem hotelu.

Dodirni me ispod stola koljenom,

generacijo moja, ljubavnice.

Znam da će još biti mladosti, ali ne više

ovakve; u prosjeku 1938a.

Ja neću s kim ostati mlad,

ako svi ostarite,

i ta će mi mladost teško pasti,

a bit će ipak da ste vi u pravu,

jer ja sam sam na ovoj obali

koju ste napustili i predali bezvoljno,

a ponovo počinje kiša kao što već kiši u

listopadu na otocima.

More od olova i nebo od borova.

udaljeni glasovi koji se miješaju:

glas majke, prijatelja, kćeri, ljubavnice,

broda, brata.

Na brzinu pokupljeno rublje pred kišu

i nestalo je svjetla s tom bjelinom.

Još malo šetnje uz more i gotovo;

ne daj se, Ines.

IMA NEŠTO OD SRCA DO SRCA (Crvena jabuka)

Am Dm Am

Oči tvoje boje nade Fmaj7 E7 Am

Zaspati mi ne daju Am Dm Am

Zadnji komad mire krade Fmaj7 E7 Am

Ta suza na jastuku

Ima riječi koje bole

Skloni ih sa usana

Kada stvari krenu dole

Samoća krug zatvara

Dm Am

Ima nešto od srca do srca Dm Am

neka tanka nit Dm Am

koja čini naše snove Fmaj7 E7 Am

A ne da se dirati

I si moja rijetka ptica

Kako da te ostavim

Bez tvog tijela bez tvog lica

Kao da ne postojim

Ima stvari koje trebaju

A nikad se ne dese

Neke druge opet ne daju

Lako da se dokuće.

NEKAKO S PROLJEČA (Crvena jabuka)

D A G D

Nekako s prolječa,uvijek meni doluta A G D

Neka čežnja tamna, neka mudrost davna G D G D

Spuštam ja stare kofere na perone sudbine G D

To je miris zrelih godina A G A D

Moj kaput baš je težak najdraža

Nekako s prolječa, ja se sjetim starih drugova

probude se u meni svi derneci pijani

Tad nosim stare cipele one znaju moje ulice

To je boja crno-ponoćna

Moji koraci baš su teški najdraža

D A

I opet taj osječaj samoče D

kad neće drugog mene krene i hoče A

I opet mrakom svoje pjesme bojim G A D

pijan od čeznje za usnama tvojim A G A D

Sav sam ti od ludila nekako s prolječa

Nekako s prolječa, sjeti mene nepravda

Na pobjede, poraze i sve lažne obzire

Napravim račun praštanja popijem pusta maštanja

To je ukus lijepog kajanja

Moji kapci baš su teški najdraža

Nekako s prolječa, noč mi oči otvara

Nemam san da uhvatim, nema dana da ne izludim

A hoću da te vodim ja tragom sunca jugom maslina

To je dodir tvojih bedara

Moja duša baš te voli najdraža

I opet taj osječaj samoče

kad neće drugog mene krene i hoče

I opet mrakom svoje pjesme bojim

pijan od čeznje za usnama tvojim

Sav sam ti od ludila nekako s prolječa

Svi su zaspali

Hajde ostani.

SA TVOJIH USANA (Crvena jabuka)

Am Dm

Kad sat zazvoni na kuli E Am E7

Kraj Begove džamije

Ja sići, siću do bašte

Šatro šljive da poberem

Ti uzmi ibrik, srebrn ibrik

Ko fol vode da doneseš

Dm Am

I tada priznat ću ti sve E

Šapnut riječi te Am A

Uuuu,volim te

Sa tvojih usana,vručina upija

Još pamtim legende starih plemena

što za ljubav glavu gube

I umiru kada ljube

46

VOLIO BIH DA SI TU (Crvena jabuka)

Em

Volio bih da si tu, D Em

ove noći kako trebaš mi. Am Em

Kao more mornaru, B Em

nemam s kim nadu djeliti, B Em

djeliti, i sačuvati.

Volio bih da si tu,

noćni program je na radiu

puštaju neku dragu muziku,

moje misli tebi putuju,

putuju, da te pronađu.

Am D G Em

Noćas zvijezde padat će, Am D G Em

jedna od njih naša je, Am D Em

jedna nosi utjehu, B

ko u snu, Em

volio bih da si tu.

Noćas zvijezde...

Volio bih da si tu,

ove noči da pričas mi,

slavili bi do zore,

svu bi nježnost svijeta popili,

popili pa se ljubili.

ZAGRLI ME (Zdravko Čolić)

Am Am7

Ne trebaš mi nista reći, Dm Am

svoju prošlost svoje ime. F

Ako če ti biti lakše G Am

zagrli me, zagrli me.

Uzet ću te u naručje,

da te čuvam usred zime.

Grijat če te moje tijelo,


C G

Zagrli me oko vrata, oluja se diže. F C

Nemože ti vjetar ništa ako priđes bliže Dm Am E

ako priđes bliže, ako priđes bliže.

Ukrao bih sreću za nas,

platio bih, nemam čime.

Jedino si moje blago,


Ne treba ni tebi draga

moje pjesme, moje rime.

Najviše je što se može


Zagrli me oko vrata, oluja se diže.

Ne može ti vjetar ništa ako priđeš bliže,

ako priđeš bliže, ako priđeš bliže.

VODA (Dan D)

E, h, fis, a

Bolečino pijemo,

skozi dno se vidi svet.

Lepota je skrita v nas,

vse navidezno je laž.

Sijaj in beda, drek, zlato,

v žepih ni to kar imaš.

Pripada ti le to,

kar na srečo zaigraš...zaigraš.

In pusti, naj te nosi voda.

Param, param, param...

Povej vsem, da si odkrit.

Streljaj ravno v oči.

Poljubi roko bližnjega,

da bi videl če še znaš.

Tam kjer si ustavil film,

tam kjer ostali so ljudje,

spomni se zdaj ko si sam,

reci: ljubiti še znam.

In pusti, naj te nosi voda.

Param, param, param...

Sonce zašlo je, še ena nora noč F G C

na nebu je prižgala zvezdice.

V meni prebuja se počasi moč,

ki v ples do jutra spet požene me.

Polnoč že odbila je,

a zate še ne vem, če prideš ali ne.



Naj punčka mlada, pravi mama ti,

ponoči raje se doma uči.

Lahko učiva se, če si želi,

s poljubi šteti vsaj do tristotri.







A to noč čakal več ne bom,

veliko drugih čaka name lepih še deklet...

DANES BO SREČEN DAN (T. Domicelj)

C

Vem da danes bo srečen dan, G C

to sem začutil že zjutraj;

zagotovo danes bo srečen dan, G C

tudi to se zgodi.

G

Morda se genij bo, C

res nekje rodil, F C

in vojna se bo končala tam, F G

kjer si vsi žele.

Vem da danes bo srečen dan,


zagotovo danes bo srečen dan,

tudi to se zgodi.

Kaj, če ladja bo

rešila brodolomca,

in dež bo padal kjer suša

že traja vrsto let.

Vem da danes bo srečen dan,


zagotovo danes bo srečen dan,

tudi to se zgodi. Tudi to se zgodi.

Tudi to se zgodi.

SLOVENSKEGA NARODA SIN (T. Domicelj)

C

Na planini je živel G

Rad je stare pesmi pel F

Se življenja veselil, C

mnogo vinca je popil

Ko je prvič šel v svet,

si pripel rdeč je cvet,

ki ga z žuljavo roko

mati dala je v slovo

Oče zgubljal ni besed,

bil je vajen tujce klet

Sinu dal je v spomin

zeleneči rožmarin in dejal:

G Am Em

"Koder hodil boš z njim, F C G C

vedi da si le slovenskega naroda sin."

Sam utiral si je pot,

videl mnogo je zarot,

težko se premagoval,

ker ubijati ni znal

Večkrat jokal je na glas,

Čakal je vrnitve čas

Nič več ni le zmagoval

in zato si je lagal iz dneva v dan:

"Ni mi mar bolečin, z njimi živim,

kot slovenskega naroda sin."

ZAMISLI ŽIVOT U RITMU MUZIKE ZA PLES (Film)

A E A E

Zamisli život u ritmu muzike za ples A E A E

Zamisli život u ritmu muzike za ples D E

Zamisli život drugačiji od ovog A D

I igraj, igraj, igraj, igraj A E A

Zamisli život u ritmu muzike za ples.

Ako zamisliš život u ritmu muzike za ples

Ako zamisliš život u ritmu muzike za ples

Doči če do promjene u tvojoj glavi

I vjerovat čes da postoji nada

Ako zamisliš život u ritmu muzike za ples.

Sjeti se kako smo živjeli nekad

Pet dinara u đuboks, pet dinara u fliper

I pet piva u sebe

To je bilo rješenje

Rješenje za osvježenje.

A sad je sve drugačije

Pogledaj, ulice su pune ljudi

Dječaci koracaju s tranzistorom na uhu

Muzika dolazi iz podruma, iz krova

I čitav grad pleše kao da je lud, lud, lud

I ja sam lud.

Zamisli život u ritmu muzike za ples

Zamisli život u ritmu muzike za ples

Zamisli život drugačiji od ovog

I igraj, igraj, igraj, igraj

Zamisli život u ritmu muzike za ples.

Pogledaj, ulice su pune ljudi

Dječaci koracaju s tranzistorom na uhu

Muzika dolazi iz podruma, iz krova

I čitav grad pleše kao da je lud, lud, lud

I ti si lud.

EMINA (I. Jusič)

Sinoć, kada se vraćam is topla hamama

Prođoh pored bašče staroga imama

Kada tamo u bašči u hladu jasmina

S ibrikom u ruci stajaše Emina

Ja joj nazvah selam, al tako mi dina

Nešče ni da čuje lijepa Emina

No u srebren ibri zahvatila vode

Pa niz bašču čune zaljevati ode

Pa niz bašču čune zaljevati ode

S grana vjetar duhnu

A niz pleći puste

Razplete joj njene pletenice guste

Zamirisa kosa, ko zumbuli plavi

A meni se krenu burburet u glavi

Malo ne posrnuh mojega mi dina

Al' meni ne dođe lijepa Emina

Samo me je jednom pogledala mrko

Niti haje alčak što za njome crko

Niti haje alčak što za njome crko

Ajši, ajša, jabaša, konja jaše subaša

Ajši, ajša, jabaša, konja jaše subaša

Po bašči se šeće i plečima kreče

Njih oči ni zapis više pomoć neće

Ja kakva je pusta, tako ni imama

Stid je ne bi bilo, da je kod sultana

Umro stari pjesnik,

Umrla Emina

Ostala je pusta bašča od jasmina.

MAČKA (I. Jusič)

Am

U gradu, nije važno ime, F G C

u praznoj sobi kaže priča Dm Am

i usred ljeta, usred zime F G Am

ja vidim tužnoga mladiča

On živi sam i ko zanese

u svome svijetu od papira

A vani sunce, kiša, jesen

a vani vergel nešto svira

G C

No jednog dana šum kraj vrata Dm Am

to netko neznan kuči želi Dm B

u njegov život poput tata Am E

da njegovu samoču djeli

A vani zima, vani snježi

i pored praga mačka želi

On pruža ruke, kao da sanja

A vani zora, svetlost danja

No u tom času, u tom trenu

pred sobom vidje nagu ženu

i on joj reče: budi moja

a ona kaže: ja sam tvoja

I sve što ima, mladič skupi

i stavi trgovcu na vagu

da prsten nje od zlata kupi

i haljinu za svoju dragu

Ta zlato želi al ne kaje

za skromnu halju, što joj daje

i tužni mladič svako veče

u novu krađu opet kreče

Jer on je želi, on je ljubi

i volio bi, da je mazi

a zna, da svoju ljubav gubi

bez darova i ruku praznih

I rješi tada još i ove noči

u zadnju krađu on če poči

i u zoru se mladič vrati

da strašnim novcem ljubav plati

I donese joj dragi kamen

u svjetu največi od sviju

U kom se kao jedan plamen

sve vatre ovog svjeta kriju

i vidje žena ruke pruža

i ljubi kamen kao muža

i kao što njega nikad nije

uz tjelo hladan kamen grije

I dok se njemu lice grči

u sobu uđe miš i trči

i kao mačka skoči žena

na pljen se baci istog trena

Stigne ga, a njeni zubi

več traže meso koje peče

i ženi, koju mladič ljubi

sa kuta usne krv poteče

U strahu mladič oči sklopi

te strašne slike neka odu

on vidje lađu što se topi

i svoju ljubav na tom brodu

I kada opet nađe snage

on digne vječe, žene nema

i tada mjesto svoje drage

on vidje mačku kako drijema

Kroz prozor uđe svjetlost danja

on pruža ruke, ko da sanja

Sad opet samo mačku ima

a vani studen, snjeg i zima.

REVOLUCIJA (Jani Kovačič)

Am

Trojka pelji me nazaj E Am

Od zadnje postaje transsibirske G C

V gozdove Sibirije E Am

Kjer sem jo srečal.

Lase je imela spete v figo

V očeh je imela srp in kladivo

Vzela me je nase

In jaz, jaz, jaz postal sem njen.

E Am G C

Revolucija, revolucija, revolucija, revolucija, Dm Am

Revolucija ja, ja, ja, revolucija, ja, ja, ja, E Am

Revolucija, revolucija. 4x

Am E

Kje so tiste sibirske noči G C

Ko sem ob sveči bral Marxa in Engelsa? Am Dm

Kje so tisti sibirski dnevi Am E Am

Ko sem odkrival dialektiko sveta?

Kje so tiste sibirske noči

Ko smo recitirali Lenina?

Kje so tisti sibirski dnevi

Ko smo ozdravili levico sveta?

V Sibiriji so Zemljina nedra čista in polna

Pridi socializem vsega Sveta, napij se atomov

Vseh snovi, ki jih rabiš

Vse rešitve so tu doma.

Revolucija...,

BELA NEDELJA (R. Rezso/V. Kreslin)

Am F

Bela nedelja v meni spokoja ni Dm E

sence me spremljajo vse dneve in noči F Am

vonj krizantem te nikoli zbudil ne bo Dm E

črna kočija te vzela je v nebo.

Am F

Vem, da te angeli več ne pustijo čez, Dm E

a naj dovolijo, da pridem samo še jaz. Am

To nedeljo.

Bela nedelja in sence se zbirajo,

srce šepeta mi naj danes končam vse to.

Potem pa, ko solze in sveče zasvetijo,

zapojte mi raje, da slišim vas v nebo.

Draga, naj moja ti pesem ne skruni sna

v beli tišini poljubiva se oba.

To nedeljo

DALEČ JE MOJ ROJSTNI KRAJ (V. Kreslin)

Slika že rumeni,

slika, tvoji in ti,

čeveljčki in nov gvant, gibanica diši,

pa tvoja mama,

tak lejpa tak šlank!

Kdo je mož, ki sedi

in dekle, ki te v naročju drži?

Tu stoji zdaj nov blok,

vse kot včeraj se zdi,

si bil pa res srčkan otrok!

G D

Daleč je,daleč, Am C

daleč je zdaj, G D Am C

moj začetek in moj rojstni kraj.

Nad hribe spušča se mrak

zdaj prižigam luči,

dolga leta so sprala

mi lesk iz oči

in slika vsak dan

bolj bledi.

Daleč je, daleč

daleč je zdaj

moj začetek in moj rojstni kraj!

66

GLEDAL TVOJE SEM OČI SANJAVO (V. Kreslin)

Gledal tvoje sem oči sanjavo

tvojih ust poslušal zvok mi drag,

las me tvojih mili vonj opajal

in utonil ves sem v sen sladak.

V sanjah živel sem življenje srečno

skusil usten tvojih dah sem vroč

upal lažno sem, da vse je večno,

da resnica vsa odšla je proč.

Dekle, daj, razodeni

zakaj vse lepo je le san,

ta čas, dekle verjemi,

da upam dočakati dan!

Ko verjeti mogel bom besede,

ki jih ustne tvoje govore

mnogo bolj ljubiti znal bom tebe,

kot bi mogla ti ljubiti,

mogla ti ljubiti,

mogla ti ljubiti me

67

NAMESTO KOGA ROŽA CVETI? (V. Kreslin)

Am Dm G C E

Kakšno noč, ko pri štorkljah prespim, pod visečo meglo Am Dm E Am

Tiho sam med njimi stojim, le noge nad vodo

Ko pa žarek pregrize temo, prebudimo se iz sanj

Močvirje novih želja bo odletelo v nebo

Am Dm

Namesto koga roža cveti? G C E

Namesto koga sem jaz? Am Dm

Katera koža najbolj diši? E

Čigava pesem rabi moj glas? (2x)

Am Dm E

Na na na na na…

Če pa trava nad mojo zemljo bo pognala kak cvet,

enim tiho kapljo v oko, drugim dal bom med.

Namesto koga roža cveti?

Namesto koga sem jaz?

Katera koža najbolj diši?

Čigava pesem rabi moj glas?

68

NEKEGA JUTRA, KO SE ZDANI (V.Kreslin)

C F

Prvi žarek že dviga se iz sna C F

glej, nad vodo je svetloba vzšla! C C/B a F Dm

Ko poslednjemu v temi poidejo moči, C C/B a G

novih stotero se sonca veseli.

C C/B a

Nekega jutra, ko se zdani F Dm

in se glave ohladijo, C C/B a G G7

vsak odide svojo pot. C C/B a

Nekega jutra, ko se zdani F Dm

in se solze posušijo, F G F C C/B Dm C

nekega jutra, ko se zdani.

Tam, pri peči stari, kot včasih tiste dni

s klobuki na omari in toplimi dlanmi,

spomnimo se pesmi stare, ki bila je še od vseh,

glasneje ob viharjev se slišal bo naš smeh.

Nekega jutra, ko se zdani

in se glave ohladijo,

vsak odide svojo pot.

Nekega jutra, ko se zdani

in se solze posušijo,

nekega jutra, ko se zdani.

OBRNI, OBRNI (M. Tomassini, V.Kreslin)

d F G7 C e a

Kjer Mure valovi se ovijajo z meglo, C D F G

vrteči krogi v globine vabijo. a F G7 C e a C

Bučanje silno napolni z mračno me strastjo D F G

in preglasi še srce in glavo.

Vprašanje kratko.

Razjeda, odgovora ne da:

ali na breg, ali v vodo?

Ali to al ono povej mi, draga

kaj naj zdaj storim,

kako tem silam, temnim, ubežim?

G F a G F

Ne odlašaj prehitro, Mura mojih dni; C G F a G E d

obrni, obrni, še kamen al' dva, al' tri.

Ljubezen moja prav potiho obrne stran glavo,

pusti me samega, samega z vodo.

Kjer Mure valovi bregove lastne izpodjedajo,

šumeči krogi vrtijo moje telo

Ne odnašaj prehitro, Mura mojih dni;

obrni, obrni, še kamen al' dva, a d G C

saj spet, čez nekaj mojih let se vidiva.

Ne odlasaj prehitro,

Mura mojih dni;

POT V RAJ (V. Kreslin)

Vedno mi je pred očmi, pa je še opazim ne

Vidi jemljejo mi stvari, ki bleščijo se

Morda še bog ne ve, morda se mu le zdi

Morda tudi on le slučajno tam sedi

Še norci ne gledajo več direkt v oči

Pod nogami se motajo mi tuje sledi

Morda ničesar ni, morda je vse le gesta

In stara, prazna pot, ki jo je skrila cesta

Pot v raj, pot v raj...

71

PREKO MURE, PREKO DRAVE (Vlado Kreslin)

C G Am

Lahko bi bila idealen par F

z diplomami in otroki. C G

Tudi to ima svoj čar,

komaj zdaj vem, Am F

s krediti in obroki.

Zmeraj si bila večja kot vse,

kar nama je življenje dalo.

Kakšen dan se mi zdi,

da dojenček sem,

ki ga še vedno štorklja nosi.

D A

Preko Mure, preko Drave, Hm G

prek Save vse do morja. D A

Morda še prek oceana, Hm G

od zibelke do neba. (2x)

Lahko bi bila idealen par

starčka na klopi v parku

in Jumpin' Jack Flash,

ki si mi ga dala v dar,

še zdaj preskakuje v taktu.

Zadnji avgust, poletje je šlo,

siva te naredi še lepšo.

Dosti mene je ti,

dosti tebe sem jaz,

dosti mene še zdaj leti.

Preko Mure, preko Drave,

prek Save vse do morja.

Morda še prek oceana,

od zibelke do neba.

TISTA ČRNA KITARA (V. Kreslin)

Bil sem še Vladek C H C e

ko so, kot vedno za praznik prišli H e H C

brkati cigani v hišo igrat. e C

Oče je stopil v sobo H C e

po tisto črno kitaro, H e H C

ki jo je kupil za prvo plačo.

e C H e

Gospod, tisto kitaro še imate C H e

Gospod, tisto črno kitaro še imate? C H e

Gospod, tista bila je res dobra.

H e H w

So ga spraševali še dolgo potem H e H e

zmeraj, ko hoteli so prositi drobiž. H e B e

Zmeraj, ko igrali so v vaški gostilni H e C

in hodili v pavzah do šanka. H e

In njihove žene, H e

ko prišle so pred vrata, H e

po stare obleke, H C

so rade vprašale:

Gospod, tisto kitaro še imate

Gospod, tisto črno kitaro še imate?

Gospod, tista bila je res dobra.

e C

Včasih, ko pridem domov, H e H

sedim pod kostanji in pijem, H e H C

pijem s prijat'li, ki tam še živijo. e C

Takrat, skoraj vedno pri mizi H C e

za nas zaigrajo in vprašajo H e H C

otroški obrazi s hripavim glasom:

Gospoud, tisto gitaro šče imate

Gospoud, tisto čarno kitaro šče mate?

Gospoud, tista je bijla dobra

Tista je bijla dobra.

TVOJE JUTRO (V. Kreslin)

C G F G …

Nočne sence se poslavljajo v dan,

v megli nad vodo star mlin,

poslednje sanje se umikajo stran

nazaj v lepši spomin.

Prvi žvižg se zareže v zrak

in žarek se zarosi

nad strehe mesta, v glave, srca in kleti

še en nov dan se rodi

Novo jutro, nov dan...

Včasih, redkokdaj se fino ti zdi,

da si živ in da te nič ne boli;

da je najlepši žarek, ki tebe zbudi, ko si ga odgrneš z oči

To je tvoje jutro, tvoj dan...

74

VRISKANJE IN JOK (V. Kreslin)

a

Včeraj umrl je en norc, F

vaški umetnik, skratka norc G e

vsem predmet za smeh, E E7

vsem ogledalo za lastni uspeh.

S sabo je vzel le nasmeh,

otroško predrznost, naivni pogled,

žarek iz oči, ki zažari in zaskeli. F E C a

Naj sliši se, naj, vriskanje in jok, F E a E a

naj nas spremljata še na zadnjo pot !

Včeraj je umrlo nebo,

modro, nedotaknjeno,

vsem cilj zaželen,

nikdar ujet,oddaljen kot sen.

S sabo je vzelo le klic

čiv, čiv, čiv osamljenih ptic,

zadnjo kresničko v temi,

ki zažari in odleti.

Naj sliši se, naj, vriskanje in jok,

naj nas spremljata še na zadnjo pot !

VSI SO VENCI VEJLI (prekm. nar., arr. V. Kreslin)

Vsi so venci vejli C

vsi so venci vejli C F G C

samo moj zeleni...

Al' ga jez zalivlem

s svojimi skuzami...

Ak' bi moja skuza

ak' bi moja skuza

ak' bi moja skuza

na kamen stopila...

Kamen bi se razklal

kamen bi se razklal

kamen bi se razklal

na dvoje, na troje...

ČAKAJ ME (Lačni Franz)

Hm A

Mojih pet minut je danes F#7 Hm

brez kravate in vezalk Hm A

in če mi še stopinje vzameš F#7 Hm

bom kot plesalec brez plesalk

Mojih pet minut je danes

stražarji puškam pojejo

ko sonce jutru zarjo vname

jim bodo pesmi vračale

Hm C

Mislim samo tiste misli, G F#7

ki jih seveda ne bi smel Hm C

in ko se vrnem sem še vedno tisti G Hm A G

ki na postaji prosi: čakaj me!

Danes se mi zdijo zvezde...

na prste stopim in so tu

Polne žepe jih prinesem

Verjame sreča vitezu?

Potem bom samo tvoj heroj za večne skupne čase

predpražnik, senca tvojega psa

potem obešalnik, kahla za otroke

kava v postelji, ljubimec za oba

PRASLOVAN (Lačni Franz)

Am

Horde slovanske krvi preko reke skozi dni, E

spredaj poglavarji in direktorji, Am

za njimi kurbe, mladci, upokojenci. Am

Spolno močni, silno zdravi, E

zakladi step iz pradavnine so prišli

po stotih generacijah sposobnih gospodinj Dm

in nam po vseh predpisih Am E Am

zabelili vse kar se je zabelit dalo.

Am G C E Am

Kdo je tebe praslovan plavati učil? G

Da si preplaval tisto rusko reko C E Am

in se v mojih genih naselil?

Usmerjeno izobraženi zjutraj v službo skozi dni

Spredaj so grobovi in sirote,

za njimi mrtve ribe in crknjeni psi.

Brez pigmenta smo spočeti sodobna brozga iz betona

se množimo križani kastrirani korakajoči

da si bomo po vseh predpisih

zabelili vse kar se bo zabelit dalo

Kdo je tebe praslovan plavati učil?

Da si preplaval tisto rusko reko

in se v mojih genih naselil?

ZARJAVELE TROBENTE (Lačni Franc)

C G

Nostalgičen, neki večer, F C

Franc in Liza, C G

na trapezu sta plesala F C

v cirkusu Gvalabladala.

Žirafe, opice in tigri,

žalostni so afriški levi.

Franci poslušal je trobente,

raztrgal cirkuške plakate.

F G

Franci je pozabil Lizo C Am

visoko nekje v zraku, F G

zagledal je njene oči C Am

na parketu Gvalabladala.

Želel je, da sloni letijo

in jo zbudijo, in jo zbudijo

zarjavele trobente s svojo glasbo,

da jo zbudijo, da jo zbudijo...

BUDI MOJA VODA (Laufer)

C G

Ostao sam sasvim sam F Em Am

Da ležim na suncu

Zvao sam te da dođes iz snova

I pružiš mi ruku

Ja molio sam da se napune

Moja mora i rijeke

U njima još jednom da osjetim

Novu ljubav da teće

I pjevam:

Budi moja voda

Ja sam sada vatra

Izgorjet ću

Prolij se po meni

Budi sve što želim

Ja živjet ću

Ostao sam sasvim sam

Da ležim na suncu

Zvo sam te da dođes iz snova

i pružiš mi ruku

Znao sam da čes doći

Doći i donijeti kišu

Ja čekao sam kao suha zemlja

Kad čeka svoju vodu

I pjevam

Budi moja voda

Ja sam sada vatra

Izgorjet ću

Prolij se po meni

Budi sve što želim

Ja živjet ću

JE V ŠIŠKI ŠE KAJ ODPRTEGA ? (Martin Krpan)

C F G F …

Belo mesto utonilo je v mrak,

zdaj spi že vsak lojalen rojak.

A zmeraj se jih najde eno par,

ki ni jim dosti te dežele mar.

Je v Šiški še kaj odprtega?

A v Šiški še kdo da?

Je v Šiški še kaj odprtega?

A v Šiški še kdo da?

Ob praznikih, ob delovnih dneh,

v zimskih in poletnih nočeh,

na vsakem koncu mesta se zdi,

da ni bolj radovednih ljudi.

Je v Mostah še kaj odprtega...

Prijatlje včasih nas premaga noč

in vsak ta drug bi rad preskusil moč.

Enotni bomo že naslednji dan,

zdaj tolkel rad bi vsak na svojo stran.

Je v centru še kaj odprtega...

Lesk v očeh zamenjal sem za pesek C Em7 F G

za opeko prodal sem svoj obraz C Em7 F Em

svojo senco za petsto kvadratov F G C F C

svoji zlati hiši Em7

Vrata odpiram le še tistim Am G F#m

kaj je bolje - naj ostanem ali grem Dm F

kaj je prav in kaj ne smem Dm F

Zdaj je čas, da izvem G Am G

da ostanem ali grem

Morda kdaj podrl bom ograjo

V hišo se vselil bo nov obraz,

Še je čas, da izvem

TE IGRE BO KONEC (Martin Krpan)

Vsak dan igrali smo karte

ob okrogli mizi tej

Igrali smo, igrali vso noč in ves dan

iskali konca smo zaman.

Kartali smo za velik denar,

ki po mizi bil je nametan; nekoč pa

te igre bo konec, te igre bo konec


In res bili smo štirje, sedaj pa sem sam

postrelil sem ostale tri.

Pobral sem denar in zbežal drugam,

kjer si me čakala ti; saj

Te igre bo konec, te igre bo konec

SIVA POT (A. Mežek)

C Am

Skoraj raj si, ti Gorenjska G F C

sive gore in zelene reke C Am

Tu življenje skriva svoj zaklad G F C

Stara si kot sonce, mlajša kot pomlad

C G am F

Siva pot, vodi me , kamor hoče srce C G

Na Gorenjsko, kjer gore so F C

vodi me siva pot

Le spomini še živijo

zemlja stara, trda neizprosna

Rdeča roža v tvojih je laseh,

nežna mesečina, solza v očeh

Siva pot...

Ko vstaja jutro slišim ptice iz daljave,

radio spominja me na dom tam nekje

In ko se vozim po betonskih magistralah,

mislim nate le, nate le

LITER BREZ DNA (Frane Milčinski - Ježek)

Iznajdbe nove dan na dan pretresajo ta svet,

za vikend kmalu bo zemljan na luno šel letet.

A kje je znanstvenik, učenjak, ki rešil bo problem,

ki muči me, da siromak ne spim več in ne jem.

Zakaj ma liter vsak na koncu dno?

Kako naj, siromak, prenašam to?

Brez dna naj liter bo, kot je nebo,

da vanjga litrov šlo bo sto in sto.

Men ni za satelite, men ni do raket,

samo neskončen liter hotel bi imet.

Zakaj ma liter vsak na koncu dno?

Kako naj, siromak, prenašam to?

Kopernik, Newton, Galilei

in Einstein in še kdo,

vsi so ti iznašli marsikej,

kar nam je prav prišlo.

Jaz pa le čakam dan na dan,

kdaj v listih vest bo izšla,

natisnjena čez celo stran:

TU LITER JE BREZ DNA

Zakaj ma liter vsak...

MARJO ŠPINEL (Iztok Mlakar)

C F

Je jemu dolge lase an oblaču se je u štrace C G

smrdu je tako ku kšne stare škovace. C F

Živu pej tako, da ni dal vedet, da je živ, C G

an strašno rad je tiste čudne, čudne cigarete kadil.

An to ne samo vsako tolko, veste, on je prou pretiravu.

Vleku je ku fabriški kamin an se ni ustavu.

An zmerom je pravu: "Ma je brezveze živet,

če ne skadiš en špinel in si malo zadet. Pa kaj."

Zna bet, da ste ga poznali, Marjan Benededič se je klicu.

Zato, k je šou glas od njega, da je mamilje szi žlicu.

Al pej samo zato, k je bil tak zaherjen kapelon,

so ga žandarmi stalno tukli an vlekli u pržon.

Ma ni blo pravga radžona, Marjo ne bi zmutu vode.

Od njega ni blo nankar koristi, nankar škode -

od njega ni blo neč. Me kej če od tazga bet,

on je skadil kak špinel in je bil malo zadet.

In pravli smo mu Marjo, Marjo Špinel

pravli smo mu Marjo, Marjo Špinel.

Čeprav še sam ni vedu, kdaj se je zadnji bot okopu,

an še svojga dreka ni znou najt, če ni glih v njega stopu,

so pupe, ma, nej jih zastope tist, k če,

zmeram ratale vse mhke an vse blažene,

če jih je Marjo tako ku kšen pesnik biondasto pogledu.

Ma on jih ni porajtu, sej še zase ni vedu.

Je pravu tko: "Da sem srečen, ne rabim jaz deklet,

jaz skadim en špinel in sem malo zadet."

Neč ga ni tokalo an neč se mu ni dalo,

nankar jest, nankar pit, ben, še dihu je bl malo.

An stalno si ga vidu kje u kantoni sedet,

tam je kadil svoj špinel in je bil malo zadet.

Za neč se ni brigu an u neč se ni vmešu.

An če kdo bi mu kdaj reku: "Marjo, ti cel svet boš rešu,

če zdej numalo, ma lih nu malo zmakneš soju ret,

bi on skadil en špinel in bi bil malo zadet.

An pravli smo mu Marjo, Marjo Špinel

pravli smo mu Marjo, Marjo Špinel.

Od špinela do špinela mu je pamet šla u maloru.

An kšenkrat, če si se usedu z njim an če si mu govoru:

"Dej, Marjo, sej ni treba bet zadet prou vsaki dan,

dej, prim se kahga dela rajši an kadi malo manj.

An dej poglej se malčk u špegu, Marjo, ma kej se tu pravi,

henjej sesat tistu reč, k maš oči že prou krvave."

Te je gledu ku ena mona an reku:

"Kaj težiš že spet, če skadim en špinel in sem malo zadet.

En dan se Marjo na štacjonu je na šveler usedu.

Zna bet, da je skadu neki močnega, kdo bi vedu.

K je prpelju vlak, on nankar zmaknt se ni tou,

vlak pej se ni ustavu an Marjo je na kose šou.

Ljudje so žleht, an kadar so stavli Marjota Špinela

u trugu, zrezanga na tanko, kukr mortadela, so rekli:

"Ben, zdej ma, kar ceu cajt tou je met,

ka bolše k taku člouk res ne more bt zadet."

"Gandža, man. Rastafarijan know the truth."

Rasla je rasla, travica zelena.

Po njoj se je šetala dušca zakajena.

An vsi vemo, kdo je Ivo Balila.

Ma rajši ku Kristus bi trpu na križu,

Nekej smrdi tule ku ena kagada,

"Živjo, kaku si kej, Ivo Balila?"

Se nardu je gluh, "Kako, prosim?"

"Neč, samo sem vprašu lepo te, kako si?"

"Ali mogoče žališ ti mene?"

"Ma ne, samo pravim da slab zrak je ratu,

zato prosim te, nardi enu pasedžatu,

"V tej državi vsi državljani smo enakopravni,

in kdo lahko brani mi tu v miru popit eno kavo?"

"Ma kdo ti kej brani, jaz bi te prosu, da greš,

dočer si še v enem kosu,

Je dvignu nos u luft, "Te ignoriram!"

"Neč novga, ignorant si bil zmeram."

"Kaj si ti misliš, mi je vseeno."

"Ma dej, hodi proč, dočer maš še noge,

"Ohoho, je to grožnja mogoče?

Pazi na svoje besede, če nočeš,

da jaz tu pri priči pokličem organe!"

"Ma neč ku pokliči, da neboš pozabu jim reč,

da nej enu metlo prnesejo s sabo,

da pometejo tisto, kar od tebe ostane."

"Ti mene blatiš, vsi so mi priča."

Ti smrad si, Ivo, k se ga na delč zaduha!"

Da bi vi vidu, kako je ratu rdeč u lica

an začnu jecljat, "Ne, ne, to to je neresnica,

jaz sem vedno spadal med demokrate."

"Ne, Ivo, ti si zmeram spadu med gnide,

k vejo, kako se oblasti u ret pride,

an k so usrani ku soldaške gate."

"Daj, no, takrat je bila druga scena."

"Ma jenji govorit, k nima pomena."

"E, rad bi ti rekel, tako kot človeku."

"Nastoj, k te bog je narobe sestavu,

Zato bo smrdelo vse, kar boš reku!"

"Poslušaj, no, tisti časi so mimo,

Ni jenju, ni jenju.

Sem rekel: "Ma komu jz govorim, zidu?

U gnoj sm že stopu an sm ga tud že kidu,

An glih so se mi malo ofrišali živci,

Vsem se vam toži po bivšem sistemu."

Godpod sodnik, glih to je še falilo,

an se mi je pred očmi kr zoblačilo,

an je ku toča padalo po njemu.

"Gospod sodnik, če ne b' bli zraven drugi,

So k sreči skočli vmes moji prjatli.

Sej oni ‘teli so pomagat možu,

ma sproti mu je vsak še kej naložu,

Ma pustmo stat, pustmo stat.

"Gospod sodnik, vam povem kar u faču,

Ivo pa nej plača čimprej enu mašu.

Sej, ljudje smo enaki po črki zakona,

An k glih pr tem smo, bi vas nekej še vprašu.

Po tisti barufi sm res fajn se skalmiru.

En cel mesc ku dojenčk spat sem reveru.

Ma zdej spet nervozen ratavam nu malo.

en celo je klapo povabu za šank an je reku:

Takrat se je neki zadrlo iz struge:

PUBI, USIDMA SE (Iztok Mlakar)

U livarni, u vročini, kjer ti pamet odpove A D

Vsak nas kamandira an nam mitinge drži, D

Prihitel je šef izmene, ja fantje kva je to

za kva ste usedel, a vam je slabo?

Kurjač je vzel kladivo:"Da nauš ti slab zdej ratu,

vset ke v kot pa tih bot, da te neum ušlatu!"



Prihitel je delovodja, a tudi on je obsedel

in direktor v beli srajci je na premogu čepel

tako livarji priredili so za poslovodni organ,

v vročini svojih plavžev informativni dan,



In so zvišali jim plače, vse se srečno je izšlo,

zgodba ni šla v tisk in škandala ni bilo,

a še danes vsi fabriki, ob čikpavzah se zgroze,

kadar rečejo livarji: Pubi, usidma se!

En takrat, ko spet pride tisti zlati cajt,

RUDI VALENTINČIČ IN PEPA ŽGABUCIN (Iztok Mlakar)

Bil je Valentinčič Rudi, lep ku špadni fant.

An tudi znau je vse, kar je pr pupah treba znat.

Vsaki znau je zmešat glavu, vsako v level je spravu.

Ta res na pupah nardu doktorat.

Včasih je zadosti blo, če je reku enu besedu,

An če zraven še tako izpod čela je pogledu.

Kukr drevje ob burji hudi vse je padalo na kup.

Prav res, Valentinčič Rudi, ta je bil za babe strup.

More, bjonde an brunete je menjavu ku kalcete,

so metale se u naročje mu na glih.

Člouk prav res težko zastope, toda zarad ene pupe

Rudi Valentinčič ni imel prav vsih.

Tista ena pravzaenprav še slišat ‘tela ni za njega,

ma nej je nardu, kar je tou an bogi revež zarad tega

se počutu je škovaca an preklinju svoj deštin.

Ta prefrigana furbaca bla je Pepa Žgabucin.

Bog mi priča je, da Pepa ni bla kdo ve kolko lepa.

Ne, to se zanjo prou res ne bi dalo rečt.

Brez zamere, grda bla je ku poziv na orožne vaje,

še medvedu bi ponoči storla utečt.

Ma zanjga blo je stvar časti, on je mogu dobit Pepu,

Kar kej če, nej se zgodi, pej magari, če bo krepu.

Rekla "Ne!" je dosti botov, ma to ni ustavlo Rudita.

Končno u cerkvi eno sobotu rekla "ja" sta obadva.

Zdej življenje mu ni sladko, Pepa ga drži na kratko.

Kej se je zgodilo z njim, vam rečt ne znam.

Tud če pride vn iz bajte, ni več tak ku svoje cajte.

An zdi se, ku da ga je glih nu malu sram.

Lohkor srečaš ga kak bot, če mu rata utečt pred babu,

u betuli se skrije u kot an se meni sam sz sabu.

Kako b' se to zastopit dalo, ženske so ena čudna reč -

če jih vse maš, je premalo, če maš enu, je preveč.

ŠTEFANA IN BERTOLIN (Iztok Mlakar)

Am E

Bertolin je bil strašen temperament E7 Am

Zaradi njega su babe, ku bi se reklo, padavale u žveniment. Dm Am

Ma njega ni brigala nobena pupa, ne gospa, E Am

samo ljepa Štefana mu pri srcu je bla.

Tisto leto na jesen jo vlih mislu je vzet,

ma pršla je vuojska in Bertolin, ni blo druge, je mogu jet.

Se je Štefana prdušala, da bo osala mu zvjesta,

en k bo pršu nazaj, bo njegova nevjesta. Am Dm Am

Ma Bertolin je raztjegnu hramoniku soju, E Am E Am

“Moja Štefana, življenje al smrt, A

ti si za mene, tko ku rajski vrt. Dm A

Ma boh ni tov, da b jest ratu tvoj mož, E A E A

bla svoj cajt si moja, več moja ne boš.”

Bertolin je pisu Štefani vsak dan,

ma ona pa njemi zmeram menj an menj.

Ga je jenjala čakat, en jo drugi je vzov,

ka Bertolin se je vrnu, je vlih na ohcet pršov.

Se je vsedu za mizu in je gledal Štefanu,

kejšen drug bi jo scagu in jo zmerjal s putanu,

kejšen drug bi na ohceti nardu kašin.

E ja, kejšen drug, samo ne Bertolin.

Ma Bertolin je raztjegnu hramoniku soju...

si obrisu je solzu, en tako je zapoju:

“Moja Štefana, življenje al smrt,…“

E je od takrat pasalo, e je že dosti let,

od takrat že stokrat se obrnu je svet.

So šle vašu loštji dve, tri države,

ma ni ugasnu ogenj, e ljubezni taprave.

Je umrla Štefana, en je umrov Bertolin,

ma ostov je en ljep, en ku bi se reklo, žlahten spomin.

Tudi soj cajt ljudje so zaljubljeni bli,

ma to ble so ljubezni, ku zdej jih več ni.

e človk obrača, boh obrne,

mladost je šla od mene preč,

kar cajt uzame več ne vrne.

Sej zdej prov neč mi ne fali,

mam en par brajd en kakšnu njivu.

Mi želje en bolezni ni,

ženu mam še zmeraj živu.

Ma kadar spijem glaž al dva,

en ko ta treči prov me prime,

se svet no mečk zadondola,

en zmislim tiste se vandime.

KAD JA POĐOH NA BEMBAŠU (nar.)

a (a)(G)

Kad ja pođoh na Bembašu, d a

na Bembašu, na vodu, d a

ja povedoh bijelo jagnje, E a

bijelo jagnje sa sobom.

Sve djevojke Bembašanke

na kapiji stajahu,

samo moja mila draga

na demirli-pendžeru.

Ja joj nazvah dobro veče,

"dobro veče, djevojče",

ona meni "dojd doveče,

dojd doveče, mangupče".

Ja ne odoh isto veče,

već ja odoh drugi dan,

drugog dana moja draga

za drugog se udala.

KATJUŠA (nar.)

Am E

Zacvetele jablane in hruške, Am

vstale so meglice iznad rek. C Dm Am

Prišla je na strmi breg Katjuša, Dm Am E Am

prišla na visoki, strmi breg.

In zapela pesem čez poljane,

o sokolu širnih je planjav

in o njem, ki ljubi ga vdano,

ki ji pismo drobno je poslal.

Ti letiš od drugih ptic hitreje,

mojo pesem nesi v daljni kraj.

Partizanu, ki nam brani meje

lep pozdrav Katjušin mu predaj.

Misli naj na ljubico edino,

ki mu pesem poje čez gore.

Naj ohrani našo domovino,

jaz ohranim svoje mu srce.

LJUBAV SE NE TRŽI (nar.)

Dm Gm Dm

Ljubav se ne trži, niti ne kupuje. Dm Gm Dm

ljubav se ne trži, niti ne kupuje. Dm Gm

Ki ljubiti ne zna, ki ljubiti ne zna, A Dm

šaj, nek' se ne hapljuje.

Če pak nam je ljubav istinska i prava,

če pak nam je ljubav istinska i prava,

s srca ju ne spere, s srca ju ne spere

Mura niti Drava.

Ljubav ne raspari zbiri ni žandari,

ljubav ne raspari zbiri ni žandari.

Zbiri ni žandari, zbiri ni žandari,

niti puglavari

Ljubav se ne trži...

Moja mati kuha kafe G C

samo s cikorje, samo s cikorje. C F C

Moja mati kuha kafe G C

samo s cikorje, ma samo da je.

Moja mati kuha kafe

Moja mati kuha kafe

od same rži, same rži

moja mati kuha kafe,

od same rži, da vsa hiša smrdi.

Žgali smo ječmen, zrnje, vse

pa je vinjalo, pa je vinjalo,

žgali smo ječmen, zrnje, vse,

pa je vinjalo, ma kakor kafe.

Naši ta stari prav'jo tako,

da je mižerja, da je mižerja,

naši ta stari prav'jo tako, da je mižerja,

ma vseeno lepo.

LEP DAN ZA SMRT (Niet)

e G D H

Sonce je sijalo, in sirene so tulile.

Nebo bilo je modro, skoraj brez oblačka.

Pod svetlo rumenim soncem sva tekla po cesti,

Ko naju je objel prvi blisk sva padla

G D C D

Aaaa, pa tako lep dan je bil, preveč lep za smrt. (4x)

Ležala sva v krvi sredi gorečega

Zraka in ognja, ležala pod soncem.

Razžarjenim, rdečim, neresničnim,

Sredi obzorja zavitega v dim,

Sredi prvega dne vojne.


Moj strah in zadnji dih, drgetanje in jok,

Bliža se smrt, smrt in ne ljubezen.

Tvoje oči s pogledom tja, kjer je nekoč sijalo sonce,

So bile mrtve.


104

EN HUD PESJAN (otr.)

D A

En hud pesjan je živel, se futral je z ljudmi, D

z njih župco si je kuhal, obral jih do kosti.

Enkrat pa en'ga najde, ga hoče v lonec dat',

preveč je čudno dišal, preveč je bil kosmat.

G D G D

Kdo bil je ta kosmatež, lahko ugane vsak. E A

Dihur je bil kajneda? Narobe, bil je vrag!

Pesjan čez kotel padel, pa s kropom se polil,

ga vrag je brž oglodal, pa župco vso popil.

Uči nas tale štor'ja, da če sta vraga dva,

da tisti zmeraj zmaga, k'ma več pesjanskega.

105

GUSARSKA (otr.)

Am

Sredi morja črna vihra Dm Am

Sredi vihre črn brod E7 Am

Sredi broda črno jadro E7 Am

Sredi jadra bela smrt.

Heja bumbarasa…

Grom buči in strela udarja

Zli valovi v dalj hite

Sedem gusarjev grozeče

Morju kažejo zobe.

Pod palubo so zakladi

Sedem mrtvih, črnih glav

V vsaki glavi sedem nožev

Vsak od nožev je krvav

Za kajuto pa igrajo

štirje divji gusarji

Dobre karte vsi imajo

Kapitan gre solo tri

Kapitan pagata vrže

Vsa posadka obnemi

Kuhar mu ga s škisom vzame

že mu glava odleti

Bliža ladji se oklopnjača

Kapitan veli "Na boj!"

Kaj bo stara ta krastača

Hej, barabe za menoj!

Vname se mesarsko klanje

Gusarji gredo na nož

Sam ostal še kapitan je

Kot poslednji zadnji mož

Kapitan cink-žorno vzame

V podpalubje z njo hiti

S fajercajgom pulfer vname

Z ladjo vred v luft zleti.

Buuum!!!

GANGSTER ČOMBE (otr., (Neca Falk)

Ko se noč spusti na mesto, kdo hiti cez mačjo cesto? d E a

To je strašni ropar Čombe, ki nastavlja pasje bombe.

Z masko si zakriva lice, v šapah nosi pokalice.

Naj bo pošta ali banka, pri obeh je stalna stranka.

G C

Mucej, Macej mačka zvita, pa ga zmeraj ulovita. E E7 a

Čombe mora s prazno vrečo za rešetke v mačjo ječo.

MAČEK MURI (otr., Neca Falk)

A

Ko zapoje zvonček v uri, Hm

prebudi se maček Muri, D C#m E

s taco si oči pomane, D G E

vzdigne rep in hitro vstane, hitro vstane.

A Hm

Na na naj… D C#m E D A

Na na na...

Mačjo posteljo prezrači,

mačjo suknjo pokrtači

in za zajtrk se odpravi

v krčmo Pri veseli kravi.

Tam ga čaka stalna miza

in točajka muca Liza,

ki prinese lonček mleka

in se mačji kruh od peka.

Ob jedači poglobi se

Muri v mačje časopise,

vse prebere brez razlike,

tudi vejice in pike.

Potlej plača in čez cesto

gre na sprehod v mačje mesto.

108

USPAVANKA (otr., Neca Falk)

Am Dm Am C

Muce bele, muce črne, muce zlate in srebrne Dm Dm7 Dm6 Esus4 E E7

Več ne smejo klepetati morajo takoj zaspati.

Zlato sonce gre za morje, bele sanje čez obzorje

Sanje so velika skleda pol iz mleka pol iz meda

Ko jim sanje zadišijo bele muce brž zaspijo

In za njimi tudi črne in še zlate in srebrne.

JESEN U MENI (Parni valjak)

Am E

Ma što da želim, sve je tako daleko Am E

I sad mi žao, sve bih opet ponovo Dm G C E

Najljepšu pjesmu tebi bih pjevao Dm G F E

Hej kamo sreće da sam pjevat mogao

Ptice u bijegu, tišina gradi zidove

Zvoni zbogom, riječi kazne božije

Te tvoje usne, opojne

Još uvijek sanjam kako su me ljubile

Dm G G7 C

Jesen u meni tuguje, zašto sanjam čemprese Dm E Am A

Moje ceste ne vode nikuda (bez tebe) Dm G G7 C

Jesen u meni caruje, a u tebi proljeće Dm F E

Ni sunce ne može, ne može kroz oblake Am

Rano moja, hej…

... s kime sada putuješ

Ma što da bilo, nemoj da mi tuguješ

Najljepšu pjesmu tebi bih pjevao

Hej kamo sreće da sam pjevat mogao

Jesen u meni tuguje, zašto sanjam čemprese

Moje ceste ne vode nikuda (bez tebe)

Jesen u meni caruje, a u tebi proljeće

Ni sunce ne može, ne može kroz oblake

Rano moja, hej…

KAO TI (Parni valjak)

G Bm Am D

Ti mi činiš krasne stvari, ti me činiš sretnim G Bm Am D Am D G

I kada loše mi krene ti si tu, uuuuu, uvijek kraj mene.

Od kada su igre grube lijepo je znati

Da čovjek ima nekog kao ti na svojoj strani

G Am D Am D G

Kao ti, kao ti, kao ti

Ti znaš da ja nisam od velikih riječi

Ono što osječam teško je reči, ipak želim da znaš, volim te

Kao ti...

Ja nisam od jučer G

Imam dosta iza sebe C

Al ni jedna od prije D

Značila mi nije

MOJA JE PJESMA LAGANA (Parni valjak)

a F G C

Tužna je naša ulica od kada nisi tu,

a F G a

jer tužnu pjesmu pjevaju oni što ostaju.

G C E a

Ne bi ti rekao ostani, ne bi ni probao.

G C E a

Ne bi ti rekao volim te, samo čuvaj se.

d a G C

Moja je pjesma lagana, polagana i tiho se ispija,

d a F E a

sasvim lagana i bez pitanja što si otišla.

Nije mi žao što si otišla, znam da si morala.

Jedino boli, malena, što se nisi javila

Iste smo snove sanjali, istom se nadali

Ja nisam smogao hrabrosti, da se probudim.

Moja je pjesma lagana, polagana i tiho se ispija,

sasvim lagana i bez pitanja što si otišla.

UHVATI RITAM (Parni valjak)

A C#m Bm E

Ne govori ništa, prepusti se, uhvati ritam, A C#m Bm E

zažmiri i zaželi cijeli svijet, uhvati ritam, Bm E Bm E

sanjaš o ljepim stvarima, zar ne znaš, da so one u nama.

Igraj svoju igru, opusti se, uhvati ritam,

nitko nam ništa ne može, uhvati ritam,

prije ili kasnije, bit če svima jasnije.

A C#m Bm E

Slušaj ljubav kako dolazi, A C#m Bm E

ljubav če nas jednog dana voditi, A C#m Bm E

iz daljine ponekad se čuje glas, A C#m Bm E

strpi se još malo doč' če red na nas.

Ti i ja, sunčan dan, eto razloga za smijeh,

mislit' svojom glavom, ponekad, nije grijeh,

kad bi mene pitali, svi bi samo plesali...

Igraj svoju igru, ma boli te, uhvati ritam,

nitko nam ništa ne može, uhvati ritam,

prije ili kasnije, bit če svima jasnije.

Slušaj ljubav kako dolazi,

ljubav če nas jednog dana voditi,

iz daljine ponekad se čuje glas,

strpi se još malo doč' če red na nas.

BELLA CIAO (partizanska)

Ko neko jutro sem se prebudil

O, bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao Am Em

Ko neko jutro sem se prebudil, F#7 B Em

Sovražnik stal je pred menoj.

O, partizani, naj pojdem z vami

O, bella ciao...

O, partizani, naj pojdem z vami

Pa čeprav me čaka smrt.

In če bom padel med partizani

O, bella ciao...

In če bom padel med partizani,

Me pokopljite, tovariši.

Grob izkopljite mi pod planino

O, bella ciao...

Grob izkopljite mi pod planino,

Kjer raste rdeča vrtica.

Ljudi ki bodo prišli kdaj mimo

O bella ciao...

Ljudi ki bodo, prišli kdaj mimo

Bo spomnil njen krvavi žar:

Da je vzcvetela iz partizana

O, bella ciao...

Da je vzcvetela it partizana,

Ki umrl je za svobodo.

BILEČANKA (partizanska)

Sredi pušk in bajonetov, sredi mrkih straž Am Em F#7 H Em Em7

Se pomika naša četa v hercegovski kras.

C D7 G Em

Čuje se odmev korakov Am Em

Po kamenju hercegovskem Am H7 Em Am H7 Em

He-ja ho, he-ja ho.

Daleč zdaj si domovina nas izgnali so

Ko da krivi smo zločina, ker te ljubimo.

Čuje se odmev korakov

Vzeli materi so sina, ženi so moža

Lačna je doma družina, dosti je gorja.


Že v sibirijo gonili, brate so nekdaj

Pa je prišel konec sili, kje si zdaj tiran.


Skoz pregnanstvo in trpljenje, skozi ječe mrak

Prišlo novo bo življenje, čujte mu korak.


Ko brez pušk in bajonetov, prosta nam bo pot

Stopala bo naša četa, svobodi naprot'.

NA DALJNEM KOLODVORU (T. Pengov)

Na nekem daljnem kolodvoru

bedi popotnik s svojo senco

kot da je gost na čudnem dvoru

je zgrešil dan, zgubil kadenco

ob mizah roj dvorjanov vztraja

cvet rahlih damic pohajkuje

samo korak je še do raja

taka se noč napoveduje

kar tam sedi in se sprašuje

kod bi še hodil kaj razdajal

čigav obraz še pričakuje

s katero vilo bi še rajal

zaspal je, kot da svet odhaja

med pripovedke njemu tuje

vlak je oznanil ot do kraja

kjer bo še lepše in še huje

bilo je dolgo potovanje

obstal je sredi tihe jase

nevedoč, da so ga sanje

prepletle v večne, zvezdne čase

prišla je lahka kot obljuba

stegnila roko, mehko ptico

zbudi se in v naročju najde

le njeno belo rokavico

na nekem daljnem kolodvoru

bedi popotnik s svojo senco,

kot da je gost na čudnem dvoru

je zgrešil dan, zgubil kadenco

pred njim je prazna rokavica

ne spomni se, kje jo je našel

morda je laž, morda resnica

morda pohojena kresnica

AKO SU TO SAMO BILE LAŽI (Plavi orkestar)

C Dm

Život ide dalje, život brzo prolazi, G F C G

al' osjećam da to više nisi ti, a ni ja.

Možda bi i mogli pokušati ponovo,

al' bojim se da ovaj je put gotovo.

Dm F G

Jer samo ti mi ubrzavaš disanje, Dm F G

jer se ja još uvijek palim na tebe.

C Dm

Ako su to samo bile laži, G F C G

lažimo se bar još malo.

Ako su to samo bile varke,

varajmo se, varajmo.

Život ide dalje, život brzo prolazi,

a osjećam da to više nisi ti, a ni ja.

Ljubavi i mržnje, težko je preskočiti zid,

al' bojim se da dobar smo par bili mi.

Jer samo ti mi ubrzavaš disanje,

jer se ja još uvijek palim na tebe.

Ako su to samo bile laži

lažimo se bar još malo.

Ako su to samo bile varke,

varajmo se, varajmo.

Vino nezna, da smo nekad bili sretni par G Am

Bolje biti pijan nego star

Kada dođe zima

A nečeš, nečeš doči,

znam te dobro, znam

možda je i tako bolje

naviko sam biti sam

Bolje biti pijan nego star…

DAJ NAM SUNCA (Plavi orkestar)

Ja sam po krugovima vode brodao

i zrna sreče sebi tražio

a vidio sam samo maglu u očima

Svako jutro novi strah

svako jutro nova laž

A u srcu pustinja

Ljubav na bjelim krilima če doči

i okajati naše grijehe sve

i povesti u zemlju sunca i zlatnih jabuka

Daj nam ruku milosti,

budi ista kao mi

i od zla nas izvadi

Ako vjeruješ u snove

zagrli me nočas ti,

zagrli me moja draga,

jer život prolazi, sad je čas

svega če biti na svjetu,

samo neče biti nas

Osječam, tvoje nas oči sada gledaju

I ljubav ista kao majka

u naša mlada srca

vratit če sjenke radosti

Daj mi ruku ljubavi,

budi ista kao ja

Tamo nema oblaka

Daj nam sunca,

daj nam sunca, daj

da nam sunce vječno sja

Daj nam sunca...

Više tebe vidjeti

Več je meni neće mi se

Nove oči svidjeti

FRIDA (Psihomodo pop)

C E F

Frida je bila moja kraljica, C G Am

Frida je bila moja kraljica, C E F

Frida je bila moja kraljica, Am F C G

ali nitko nije bio njezin kralj.

Ja sam radio, a ona je čekala.

Ona je čekala, da padne mrak.

Ona se čudila, što ne znam uživati.

Ja sam joj rekao: “Hey honey, nije to sam tak’.”

Pod nama su pucali kreveti.

Mi smo se pucali, dok ne pukne dan.

Ja sam je gadjao, al’ nisam pogodio,

taj joj metak nije dovoljan.

Frida, ja ti nisam dida.

Imas dobre uši, slušaj kroz njih.

Ti si bila moja jedina pracka,

a ja sam bio samo sprih

Frida je bila moja kraljica.

Frida, jesil' čula za Lou Reeda?

Frida je bila moja kraljica,

a nitko nije bio njezin kralj.

SAMO EDINI (Siddharta)

Am

Vem, da nisem prvi, ki ne zna, G F Am

stopit na divji vrh sveta in ne bom ta zadnji, k’ te vid v sanjah.

Kol’k jih je pred mano dihal zrak

in kol’kim se rodi najlepši otrok,

kol’k jih še pride sem za nami v ta rod.

Dm G C F

Sem pa edini, ki nosi najino kri, Dm G Am

jaz sem edini, ki tvoj jok umiri.

Jaz sem edini, ki ne obstaja,

ne obstaja brez tvojega sveta.

Vem, da nisem prvi, ki ne spi,

zaradi udarcev in skrbi

in ne bom ta zadn’, ki se enkrat ne zbudi.

Drugim sem kazal svoj nasmeh,

drugi so videl’ solze na tleh.

Drugi so grizli kožo z mene spet in spet.

Ampak sem edini, ki s tvoje rane liže kri,

jaz sem edini, ki tvoj jok umiri

Jaz sem edini ki ne obstaja,

ne obstaja brez tvojega sveta.

In vedno več je upanja v ta svet.

Slišal sem, da z mano hoče živet

in s tem to edino to življenje dati za me.

Zato sem danes jaz vdihnil zrak,

in danes je moj najlepši otrok,

danes zaspim, ker jutri s tabo se zbudim.

MRTVA REKA (M. Smode)

G C

Starec je govoril mi, da bila si lepa ti, D C G

kakor rosa jutranja, polna si življenja b'la G C

Zdaj pa gledam reka te, ko vališ počasi se, D C D G

zdaj osamljena si vsa, polna mrtvega blaga.

G C

Mrtva reka, kam hitiš? D G

Mrtva reka, kam bežiš? G C

Kje zelenje vse je zdaj? D G

Kje so ribe, tvoj sijaj?

Mrtva reka, kam greš zdaj,

kot popotnik v tuji kraj?

A morda, nekoč pa le,

čista reka vrneš se.

Zdaj pa gledam reka te, ko vališ počasi se

zdaj osamljena si vsa, polna mrtvega blaga

Kam življenje je odšlo, kot skopnelo bi bilo?

DALEČ JE ZA NAJU POMLAD (A. Smolar)

Am Dm

Danes stara sva in siva, G C Cadd9 Am

pozna se težko breme let. Am Dm

Postala sva tako ranljiva, E Am

mnogo prehiter je za naju svet.

Najine poti so kratke,

le redko kdaj še greva kam.

Vedno skupaj vedno sama,

ona vse je, kar imam.

Daleč, daleč je za naju pomlad,

leta prinesla so jesen.

Daleč, ko dekletu sem govoril: Rad te imam,

in ko bil jaz fant sem njen.

Daleč, daleč je za naju pomlad,

in za mladostjo je hudo.

A ne bi hotel sam postati spet mlad,

raje star sem, star in z njo.

Govoriva si spomine,

mnogo vsega je bilo.

Rečeva, kako vse mine

in malo nama je hudo.

A nato se nasmejiva,

srečna, ker sva se našla.

Kako lepo je, da sva se spoznala

in skupaj skozi življenje šla.

Daleč, daleč je za naju pomlad...

Ura prepodi spomine,

greva spat, zašepeta.

Trdno me pod roko prime

in s težavo vstaneva.

Ponoči k meni se privije,

vsak njen dotik takoj poznam,

mi prežene grenko misel:

kdo od naju ostal bo sam.

Daleč, daleč je za naju pomlad...

DVAJSET LJUBIC (A. Smolar)

Am E

V ognju mam železja dost, ker nočem sam ostat Am

in zato kar dvajset ljubic j'st mam na enkrat Dm

vendar moti se kdor misli da lepo mi je Am E Am

me vsaka le ob pamet spravlja in mi živce žre.

Ena ljubica bi rada spremenila spol

je druga splezala na poštarja in noče dol

tretja tol'k je shujšala da je nikjer več ni

četrta je v arestu, peta pa v norš'nci.

Joj mene joj mene jej hata ja...

Šesta tolk zaudarja da'b naj raj' jo pokopal

sedma nora je kot noč a hoče zmer' met prav

osma pravi: "Dnar mi dej, če hočeš z mano spat",

deveta tolk teži da bi najraj zavil ji vrat.

Joj-mene-joj...

Moram vam priznat deseta se kar gnusi mi:

"Najprej zdravje, pol kultura", pravi in ga kar spusti

sumim da enajsta garje in uši ima,

na kup masti in žolce me spominja dvanajsta.

Joj-mene-joj...

S trinajsto t’ko al t’ko nikol' ni sreče b'lo,

štirinajsto vse boli in zmer' ji je slabo

bi rada petnajsta postala nuna n'č nimam od nje,

šesnajsto pa nosi luna hodi kdo ve kje.

Joj-mene-joj...

Sedemnajsto bi najraje v dom za starce dal,

osemnajsta tepe me od kar sem jo spoznal,

za devetnajsto smisel življenja je prepir,

dvajseta nenehno uliva vase rum in pir.

Joj-mene-joj...

V ognju 'mam železja dost, ker nočem sam ostat,

in zato kar dvajset ljubic jest 'mam na enkrat

vendar kvantiteta sinonim za srečo ni,

pameten le eno kvalitetno si dobi.

IMAM PJESMU ZA TEBE (Rade Šerbedžija)

Am E7 Am

Imam pjesmu za tebe, godinama čeka ta E4 E7 Am A7

i strpljivo namigne sa dalekih obala. Dm Am Dm Am Ddim

U njoj vrani konji svi što su davno zbrisali, Am G#dim E7 Am

jednom lica poznata, ne pamtim ih više ja.

Am E7 Am

Imam pjesmu za tebe, sama sebe pisala, E7 Am

od Silbe do Santa Monice, mora se nadisala. A7 Dm G7 C

U njoj miris prošljih ljeta, sjaj i bijeda trošnog svijeta. Am Ddim E7 Am

U njoj boja lijepih dana pada preko naših rana.

Imam pjesmu za tebe, da te malo razgali.

Neće prognat tuge te al će da ih ublaži.

I na tren će vrijeme stati i na časak ćemo znati,

gdje se tajna skrivala, gdje je sreća ostala.

Imam pjesmu za tebe, poslije ću je svirati.

Nek se ona omakne kad sjećanje provali.

Kao nekad ti i ja, tamburaši za nama,

pod prozore dragih žena ulicama uspomena. (2x)

Imam pjesmu za tebe, prava je i jedina,

vozi znane puteve bez granica, carina.

Rijetke minute toči, radost srcu smijeh za oči.

U njoj još smo djeca mi, još nas nisu slomili.

U njoj još smo djeca mi, još nas nisu sudili

Kao nekad ti i ja, tamburaši za nama,

pod prozore dragih žena, ulicama uspomena. (2x)

Imam pjesmu za tebe...

ONA SE BUDI (Šarlo Akrobata)

Ona puni 18 godina u junu

Nezna šta da radi, kada položi maturski ispit

Ljudi su vrlo zlobni dok gledaju njene grudi

Ljudi su vrlo zlobni dok gledaju njen ten

Ona se budi

Ona se budi

Ona nema nikoga, da ji kaže: ti si moja, ti si moja,...

Celoga života nečim joj pune glavu

Punčkice i krpice, srčice

su stvari za devojčice

Igrati elastiš ona nikada nije znala

Skuvati rućak nikad nije bila njena stvar

Ona se budi

Ona se budi


Ljudi se čude, zar ona moče da misli

Ljudi se čude, zar ona sve da zna

Ljudi su vrlo zlobni, dok gledaju njene grudi

Ljudi su vrlo zlobni, dok gledaju njen stas

Ona se budi

Ona se budi

GORSKA ROŽA (A. Šifrer)

A D A

Odšel bom tja, kjer je daljši dan, kjer se mestni svet konča, E

kjer namesto asfaltnih cest vodi le steza

Hiše razpršene kot jata plahih jerebic

čas utripa drugače če živiš v eni od gorskih vasic

Tisti dan sem žganje pil kot ga pije gospodar

Bog mi v jezik je dal moči in takrat sem jo spoznal

Soseda mlada prisedla je, srečal njene sem oči

Ko smo peli sem jo gledal, kako se mi smeji

D A

Gorska roža čaka me, E A

gorska roža, da vrnem se D A

Moji Špeli iz planin E A

pod srcem pustil sem spomin

Brez staršev je, a fantov ni, ki bi ženili se v gore

Zjutraj gre v tovarno saj z majhno kmetijo pač ne gre

Vzljubila me je, čeprav sem bil zanjo skoraj še otrok

Naučila me je piti meda, jaz sem dal ji svojih 18 let

Gorska roža čaka me,

gorska roža, da vrnem se

Moji Špeli iz planin


Od takrat sem pri njej živel na gruntu ob koncu vasi

Čez dan kitaro sem igral in ljubil Špelo vse noči

Bil opran sem in vedno sit jedel kruh sem iz njene peči

Vstajala je zgodaj na delavski avtobus se vedno mudi

Gorska roža čaka me,

gorska roža, da vrnem se

Moji Špeli iz planin


133

OSTANI Z NAMI (A. Šifrer)

G C Am F …

Ostani z nami, ostani z nami do jutra

Ostani z nami vse do belega dne

Vem da dovoli tvoja mama

in je prikimal tudi ata

pa preslišal stari deda

babica rekla je seveda

Ker se stinja zbor tet,

je privolil hišni svet

Ostani z nami...

Odprli bomo nov sod

da bomo vidli, kaj je not

Točajke lepe, mlade

v čaše vlijejo razvade

Primakni hitro svoj stol

in ne sili domov

Ostani z nami...

Mi bomo peli, mi bomo pili in peli

Mi bomo peli, dokler grla zdrže

In ko poidejo moči

ko večina obleži

V kozarcih se pokaže dno

Preden petelin zapoje

Takrat te primem za roko,

šepnem ti na uho

Ostani z mano...

USPAVANKA ZA EVO (A. Šifrer)

C Am Dm G

Vsaka zvezda na nebu zamiži, C Am Dm G

teta Luna prikima, se zasmeji. C Dm Em F G C

Pogasili smo vse luči, da naša Eva lahko zaspi.

Vsaka zvezda na nebu zamiži,

teta Luna prikima, se zasmeji.

Pogasili smo vse luči, da naša Eva lahko zaspi.

Am G

Pa naj zaspi, naj skrije svoje trudne oči, Am G

pa naj zaspi, da se malo srce umiri C Dm

in naj sanja le o lepih stvareh. F G

Ko sonce zbudi jo, na ustih bo smeh.


Evin kužek zalaja, se poslovi.

V kraljestvo škratov, sanj in vil

jo nese sila nevidnih kril.

In že leti daleč proč od tega sveta,

od tega kar ne razume in kar ne pozna,

saj jo čaka svet drugačen od sanj.

Kako naj svarim jo, kaj rečem ji v bran?

F Dm

Boj se ljudi, ki ne znajo jokati, Em G

ne gledajo v oči in ne znajo stisnit dlan! F Dm

Boj se množic, ko mahajo s pestmi, Em G

šoferjev s klobuki, nabitih na volan!

Pa naj zaspi, naj skrije svoje trudne oči,

pa naj zaspi, da se malo srce umiri

in naj sanja le o lepih stvareh.

Ko sonce zbudi jo, na ustih bo smeh.


teta Luna prikima, se zasmeji.

Pogasili smo vse luči,

da naša Eva lahko, pst! zaspi.

VSE MANJ JE DOBRIH GOSTILN (A. Šifrer)

Vse manj je dobrih ljudi F C F C

Vse bolj nas dolgčas razjeda G G7 C F C

Nekoč prijatlji, zdaj tujci smo si

Več ne poznaš ljudi, vsebolj se ti mudi. C G

Vse manj je dobrih gostiln

Vse manj je dobrih ljudi

Vse bolj nas dolgčas razjeda

Nekoč prijatlji, zdaj tujci smo si

Mreža nevidnih ječ stiska nas preko pleč

stiska nas in duši, tako smo sami

Pustil bom mestni čas, šel bom živet na vas

čas si bom sam vzel, ne bo me vec v rokah imel

Šel bom v dobre gostilne

šel bom med dobre ljudi

Nalil si bom čistega vina

in zapil se s prijatlji do dne…

DJEVOJČICE KOJIMA MIRIŠE KOŽA (Zabranjeno pušenje)

C

Uzalud glancaš svoje špicaste cipele F

uzalud otkopčavaš zadnje dugme košulje

one se neče nasmijat’ na tvoje loše folove

neće se osvrnuti na tvoja dobacivanja

Možeš im lagat da ti je babo direktor

ili da si treča godina prava

one će znati da si niko i ništa,

običan uhljup s’ Koševa

I opet ćes teturati uz memljiv zid

na iskrivljenoj česmi ces oprati lice

sjesti na plocnik, zapalit' cigaru

i gledati na drugu stranu ulice.

C G Em

A sa one strane ulice stanuju Am F C G

djevojčice kojima miriše koža…

One vole frajere koji nose bradice

i čije ih riječi ostave bez daha

koji nikad ne prave belaja

koji nikad ne psuju Allaha.

Ne znaju one da ti je srce veče

nego u tog bradatog gmaza

nikad ti nece pružiti šansu

ne poznajes dovoljno efektnih izraza.

I opet ćes teturati uz memljiv zid

na iskrivljenoj česmi ces oprati lice

sjesti na ploćnik, zapalit' cigaru

i gledati na drugu stranu ulice.

A sa one strane ulice stanuju

djevojčice kojima miriše koža…

Alo, ... Alo ... dođite vamo e'...

Šta se okrećeš ...

nemoj, bolan nemoj...

ŽITIJE MIĆE MURIQUIJA (Zaklonišče prepeva)

G e D C

Ovo je priča još od pre rata

Kad ljudi imali su šiptara za brata.

Tad su se rađali dobri mladići,

Jedan od njih bio je naš Mićo Muriqui.

Ujak Fadil, poznati fudbaler,

Reče: "Miće biće isti švaler."

"Šutiram dobro al'loš sam u driblanju,

burekmajker ostaću, to sam po zanimaju."

G D e C

Šoti mori, šoti, šoti, mašala,

Ova zemlja predugo je spavala.

Šoti mori, šoti, šoti, mašala...

A posle smrti Tita - maršala

Život na Kosovu nije više šala.

Da ne bih Mića porastao u zlikovca,

Morao je van iz rodnog Uroševca.

Lepa Usnija, njegova sestra,

Reče: "Pamti ko si, to je 'koza nostra"

Od tad se lozinka više ne glasi:

Titovim putem i živeo Azem Vlasi.

Šoti mori... (2x)

I tako se malji Mića Muriqui odazvao

Pozivu domovine i zaključao svoja

Buredžinica u Ljubljana. Tata Valter po

prvi put postao ponosan na svoga sina,

pošto je ovaj odlučio da se bori za

bodućnost malji deca na Kosova. Tada su

Sotir, malji Mahir, Redžep in on po tajnim

Koridorima slali naoružanje za

Oslobodilačku Vojsku Kosova...

"Kosova - republjik Kosova - republjik!"

"Nemoj Mićo, nemoj danas."

Al on se nije srušio pod pritisak nego je i

dalje vikao: "Kosova - republjik! Kosova -

republjik!"

Šoti mori... (2x)

"Kosova - republjik..."

JABUKE I VINO (Zana Nimani / Željko Bebek)

Dobro veče dragi,

Uvek si rado viđen gost.

Jabuke i vino čekaju,

I res prepećen tost.

U bašti mesec sija žut,

I laste već odlaze na jug,

A mi se vrtimo u krug.

Dobro veče draga,

Kažem ti, lijepa si ko bog,

Zašto žuriš, kada

Patim bez milovanja tvog.

Sad spavaj, pokrivaću te ja,

Sanjaj, dok plamen svijeća sja,

U snove utonimo do dna.

Ljepoto!

Pa hajde usreći me malo, što pre,

Zbog nas je ovo veče palo, zar ne?

I zvezde rasule po nebu, baš sve.

Iz ovog našeg gnijezda, gdje bi?

BIT (Zmelkoow)

D Es

Zadeli smo filozofijo v čelo, B E A

našli smo bit okroglo in debelo.

Se je skrivala na otoku sredi oceana,

s sladoledom v roki, vsa nasmejana.

O bit ti nesrečna, zakaj si se skrila?

Ko te ni bilo, je svet zmeda prekrila.

Ljudje levo desno brezglavo hitijo,

smisla in bistva si srčno želijo.

O bit usmili se nas in povej enkrat za vselej na glas:

kaj je smisel in namen, kako je treba živet,

da bomo srečni in zdravi od glave do pet?

h E A D A

Smisel življenja je ležanje na plaži z možgani na off in čiwawo na straži.

Visenje v mreži med dvemi drevesi, slalom v ravnini z zarjavelimi kolesi.

Smisel življenja je jahanje oblakov, pihanje v sonce in lomljenje korakov.

Sanjanje parnika na modrem ogledalu, piknik z mravljico in luknja v sandalu.

Kasneje je priznala, da je že nekaj spila,

in da sta z aristipom enega prej pokadila.

Vseeno se ni zmedla in je še enkrat ponovila

modri recept in plava navodila.

Smisel življenja…

FOREVER YOUNG (Alphaville)

C G Am

Let's start in style, let's dance for a while F G

Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies Am F

Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst G6 - FMaj7 - G6 - C

Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?

Let us stay young or let us live forever

We don't have the power, but we never say never

Sitting in the sandpit, life is a short trip

The music's for the sadman

Can you imagine when this race is won

Turn out all the faces into the sun

Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune

The music's played by the madman

C G

Forever Young Am F

I want to be Forever Young G Am

Do you really want to live forever? F G

Forever, you'll never C G

Forever Young, Am F

I want to be Forever Young G Am

Do you really want to live forever? F G C

Forever Young.

Some are like water, some are like the heat

Some are a melody and some are the beat

Sooner or later they all will be gone

Why don't they stay young?

It's so hard to get old without a cause

I don't want to perish like a fading horse

Years like diamonds in the sun

And diamonds are forever

So many advantages given up today

So many songs we forgot to play

So many dreams swinging out of the blue

Oh let it come true

Forever young…

HORSE WITH NO NAME (America)

Em D6/9

On the first part of the journey

I was lookin at all the life

There were plants and birds and rocks and things

There were sand and hills and rings

The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz

and the sky with no clouds

the heat was hot and the ground was dry

but the air was full of sound

Em9 Dmaj9

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name

it felt good to be out of the rain

in the desert you can remember your name

'cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain

la la la la lalala la la la la la

After two days in the desert sun

my skin began to turn red

After three days in the desert fun

I was looking at a river bed

And the story it told of a river that flowed

made me sad to think it was dead






After nine days I let the horse run free

'cause the desert had turned to sea

there were plants and birds and rocks and things

there were sand and hills and rings

The ocean is a desert with it's life underground

and the perfect disguise above

Under the cities lies a heart made of ground

but the humans will give no love

THE HOUSE OF THE RISING SUN (The Animals)

Am C D F

There is a house in New Orleans Am C E

They call the Rising Sun Am C D F

It's been a ruin of many a poor boy Am E Am

And God, I know, I'm one

My mother was a tailor

She sew my new blue jeans

My father was a gambling man

Down in New Orleans

The only thing a gambler needs

Is a suitcase and a trunk

And the only time that he is satisfied

Is when he's on a drunk

Oh mother, tell your children

Not to do what I have done

Just spend your life sincere in misery

In the house of the Rising Sun

One foot on the platform

The other on a train

I'm going back to New Orleans

To wear that ball and chain

Well there is a house in New Orleans

They call the Rising Sun

It's been the ruin of many a poor boy

And God, I know, I'm one

DIAMONDS AND RUST (Joan Baez)

Em C

Well I'll be damned, here comes your ghost again G

But that's not unusual D

Its just that the moon is full Em

And you happened to call

And here I sit, hand on the telephone

I'm hearing a voice I'd known

A couple of light years ago

Heading straight for a fall

As I remember, your eyes were bluer than robins' eggs

My poetry was lousy you said

Where are you calling from?

A booth in mid-west

Ten years ago I bought you some cuff-links

You bought me something

We both know what memories can bring

They bring diamonds and rust

You burst on the scene already a legend

The unwashed phenomenon

The original vagabond

You strayed into my arms

And there you stayed temporarily lost at sea

The madonna was yours for free

The girl on the half-shell

Could keep you unharmed

Bm

Now I see you standing with brown leaves falling all around Am

And snow in your hair Bm

Now you're smiling out of the window of that crummy hotel Am

Over Washington square C

Our breath comes out of white clouds G

Mingles and hangs in the air Fmaj7

Speaking strictly for me G B7

We both could have died then and there

Now your telling me you’re not nostalgic

Then give me another word for it

You who are so good with words

And keeping things vague

'Cos I need some of that vagueness now

Its all come back too clearly

Yes I loved you dearly

And if you're offering diamonds and rust

I've already paid

PRISON TRILOGY (Joan Baez)

G Bm

Billy Rose was a low rider, Billy Rose was a knife fighter C Bm G D

Billy Rose knew trouble like the sound of his own name C Am

Busted on a drunken charge driving someone else's car C Am G

The local midnight sheriff's claim to fame

In an Arizona jail there are those who'll tell the tale

How Billy fought the sergeant for some milk that he demanded

And knowing they'd remain the boss and knowing he would pay the cost

They saw he was severely reprimanded

Em Bm Em Bm

In the blackest cell on "A" block, he hanged himself at dawn Em Bm Am D

With a note stuck to the blanket, "Don't mess with me just take me home" Em D G

So come and lay, help us lay young Billy down

Luna was a mexican, what the law calls an alien

For coming 'cross the border with a baby and a wife

Though the clothes upon is back were wet still he thought that he could get

Some money and things to start a life

It hadn't been too very long when it seemed like everything went wrong

They didn't even have the time to find themselves a home

This foreigner, a brown-skineed male, throw inside a Texas jail

Left his wife and baby quite alone

He eased the pain inside him with a needle in his arm

But the dope just crucified him and he died to no one's great alarm

Come and lay, help us lay poor luna down

Kilowatt was an aging con of 65 who stood a chance to stay alive

And leave the joint and walk the streets again

As the time he was to leave drew near he suffered all the joy and fear

Of leaving 35 in the pen

And on the day of his release he was approached by the police

Who took him to the warden walking slowly by his side

The warden said "You won't remain here But it seems a state retainer

Claims another 10 years of your life."

He stepped out in the Texas sunlight and the cops all stood around

Old Kilowatt ran 50 yards then threw himself down on the ground

They might as well just have laid the poor man down Em D G

And we'll raze, raze the prisons to the ground

THE NIGHT THEY DROVE OLD DIXIE DOWN (Joan Baez)

Em C Em

Virgil Cain is my name and I drove on the Danville train G Em C Em

Till Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again C G Em C

In the winter of '65, we were hungry, just barely alive Em C G Em A

I drove a train to Richmond, Nefelle. It was a time I remember very well

G Em C G Em

The night they drove old Dixie down, and all the bells were ringin' G Em C G Em

The night they drove old Dixie down, and all the people were singin', (they went) G Em A C

"Naa na-na naa na-na, na-naa na-naa na-naa naa na-naa na-na-naa"

Back with my wife in Tennessee, one day she said to me

"Virgil, quick come see, there goes the Robert E Lee."

Now. I don't mind choppin' wood, and I don't care if the money's no good

You take what you need and you leave the rest, but they should never have taken the very best.

The night they drove old Dixie down, and all the bells were ringin'

The night they drove old Dixie down, and all the people were singin', (they went)


Like my father before me, I'm a workin' man

Like my brother above me, I took a rebel stand

He was eighteen, proud and brave, but a Yankee laid him in his grave

I swear by the blood beneath my feet, you can't raise a Cain back up when he's in defeat.

The night they drove old Dixie down, and all the bells were ringin'

The night they drove old Dixie down, and all the people were singin', (they went)

Do you feel the same?

IN MY LIFE (Lennon / McCartney)

G Em G7 C Cm

There are places I'll remember all my li--ife G

though some have changed, G Em G7

Some forever not for better, C Cm G

some have go--one and some remain. Em C

All these places had their moments, F G

with lovers and friends I still can recall, Em A7 Cm

Some are dead and some are living, in my life G D

I've loved them all.

G Em G7

But of all these friends and lovers, C Cm G

there is no one compares with you, G Em G7

And these memories lose their meaning, C Cm G

when I think of love as something new.

Em C F G

Though I know I'll never lose affection for people and things that went before, Em A7 Cm G D

I know I'll often stop and think about them, in my life I'll love you more.

ELEANOR RIGBY (Lennon, Mc Cartney)

C Em

Ah, look at all the lonely people!

Em C

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in a church where a wedding has been Em

Lives in a dream, waits at the window C

Wearing a face that she keeps in a jar by the door Em

Who is it for?

All the lonely people

Where do they all come from?

All the lonely people

Where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people!

Father Mc Kenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear

No one comes near, look at him working

Darning his socks in the night where there's nobody there

What does he care?

All the lonely people...

Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name

Nobody came, Father Mc Kenzie

Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave

No one was saved

All the lonely people...

HELP (Lennon, Mc Cartney)

G Bm

When I was younger so much younger than today Em C F G

I never needed anybody's help in any way G Bm

But now these days are gone I'm not so self assured Em C F G

Now i find, I've changed my mind, I've opened up the doors

Am

Help me if you can I'm feeling down F

And I do appreciate you being round D7

Help me get my feet back on the ground G

Won't you please, please help me?

And now my life has changed in, oh, so many ways

My independence seemed to vanish in the haze

But every now and then I fell so insecure

I know that I just need to like I've never done before

Help me if...

HEY JUDE (Lennon, Mc Cartney)

D A

Hey Jude, don't make it bad A7 D

Take a sad song and make it better G D Remember to let her into your heart A7 D

Then you can start to make it better

Hey Jude, don't be afraid

You were made to go out and get her

The minute you let her under your skin

Then you begin to make it better

D7 G And any time you feel the pain h e Hey Jude, refrain A7 D don't carry the world upon your shoulders

For now you know that it's a fool

who plays it cool

by making his world a little colder

Hey Jude, don't let me down

You have found her, now go and get her

Remember to let her into your heart

Then you can start to make it better

So let it out and let it in

Hey Jude, begin

You're waiting for someone to perform with

And don't you know that it's just you

Hey Jude, you'll do

The movement you need is on your shoulders

LET IT BE (Lennon, Mc Cartney)

G D

When I find myself in times of trouble Em C

Mother Mary comes to me G D C G

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

And in my hour of darkness

She is standing right in front of me


Em D C G

Let it be,... D C G

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

And when the broken hearted people

living in the world agree

There will be an answer, let it be

For though they may be parted

There is still a chance that they will see

There will be an answer, let it be

Let it be,...

And when the night is cloudy there is

Still a light that shines on me

Shine until tomorrow, let it be

I wake up to the sound of music

Mother Mary comes to me


Let it be...

OCTOPUS'S GARDEN (Richard Starkey)

E C#m

I'd like to be under the sea A B

In an Octopus's Garden in the shade. E C#m

He'd let us in knows where we've been, A B

In his Octopus's Garden in the shade. C#m

I'd ask my friends to come and see A B

An Octopus's Garden with me. E C#m

I'd like to be under the sea A B E

In an Octopus's Garden in the shade.

We would be warm below the storm

In our little hideaway beneath the waves.

Resting our head on the sea bed

In an Octopus's Garden near a cave.

We would sing and dance around

Because we know we can't be found.

I'd like to be under the sea

In an Octopus's Garden in the shade.

We would shout and swim about

The coral that lies beneath the waves.

Oh, what joy for every girl and boy

Knowing they're happy and they're safe.

We would be so happy, you and me.

No one there to tell us what to do.

I'd like to be under the sea

In an Octopus's Garden with you,

THE FOOL ON THE HILL (Lennon / McCartney)

C F

Day after day alone on a hill the C F

man with the fool grin is keeping perfectly still, But Dm G7 C Am

nobody wants to know him, they can see that he's justa fool and Dm G7

he never gives an answer.

Dm7 Cm Ab Cm Ab

But the fool on the hill sees the sun going down and the Bb Cm C

eyes in his head see the world spinning round

Well on the way head in a cloud, the

man of thousand voices talking perfectly loud, But

nobody ever hears him, or the sound he appears to make and

he never seems to notice.

Day after day alone on a hill the

man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still, And

nobody seems to like him, they can tell what he wants to do and

he never shows his feelings.

Day after day alone on a hill the

man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still.

He never listens to them he knows that they're fools

They don't like him.

WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS (The Beatles)

C G Dm

What would you do if I sang out of tune? F G7 C

Would you stand up and walk out on me? C G Dm

Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song F G7 C

and I'll try not to sing out of key

B F C

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Am7 D7

Do you need anybody? C B E

I need somebody to love

Could it be anybody?

I want somebody to love

What do I do when my love is away?

Does it worry you to be alone?

How do I feel by the end of the day?

Are you sad because you're on your own?

Oh, I get by...

Would you believe in a love at first sight?

Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time

What do you see when you turn out the light?

I can't tell you but I know that it's mine

YELLOW SUBMARINE (Lennon, Mc Cartney)

In the town where I was born

Lived a man who sailed to sea

And he told us of his life

In the land of submarines

So we sailed up to the sun

Till we found the sea of green

And we lived beneath the waves

In our yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine

yellow submarine...

And our friends are all aboard

Many more of them live next door

And the band begins to play

As we live the life of ease

Ev'ry one of us has all we need

Sky of blue and sea of green

In our yellow submarine

162

YESTERDAY (Lennon, Mc Cartney)

Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks as though they're here to stay

Oh I believe in yesterday

Suddenly I'm not half the man I used to be

There's a shadow hanging over me

Oh yesterday came suddenly.

Why she had to go?

I don't know, she wouldn't say

I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday

Yesterday love was such an easy game to play

Now I need a place to hide away

Oh I believe in yesterday

Why she had to go?

I don't know, she wouldn't say

I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday

Yesterday love was...

L'IMPORTANT C'EST LA ROSE (Gilbert Becaud)

C C7

Toi qui marches dans le vent F C

Seul dans la trop grande ville F C

Avec le cafard tranquille Bb G7

Du passant

Toi qu'elle a laissé tomber

Pour courir vers d'autres lunes

Pour courir d'autres fortunes

L'important

Dm G7

L'important c'est la rose Em A7

L'important c'est la rose Dm G7

L'important c'est la rose C G7

Crois-moi

Toi qui cherches quelque argent

Pour te boucler la semaine

Dans la ville où tu promènes

Ton ballant

Cascadeur soleil couchant

Tu passes devant les banques

Si tu n'es que saltimbanque

L'important

L'important c'est la rose



Crois-moi

Toi petit que tes parents

Ont laissé seul sur la terre

Petit oiseau sans lumière

Sans printemps

Dans ta veste de drap blanc

Il fait froid comme en Bohème

T'as le cœur comme en carême

Et pourtant



L'imporlant c'est la rose

Crois-moi

Toi pour qui donnant donnant

J'ai chanté ces quelques lignes

Comme pour te faire un signe

En passant

Dis à ton tour maintenant

Que la vie n'a d'importance

Que par une fleur qui danse

Sur le temps




Crois-moi

PUTTIN' ON THE RITZ (Irving Berlin)

If you're blue and you don't know where to go to why don't you go where fashion sits

Puttin' on the Ritz

Different types who wear a day coat pants with stripes and cutaway coat perfect fits

Puttin' on the Ritz

Dressed up like a million-dollar trooper

Tryin' hard to look like Gary Cooper (super duper)

Come let's mix where Rockefellers walk with sticks or um-ber-ellas in their mitts

Puttin' on the Ritz

Have you seen the well-to-do

Up and down Park Avenue

On that famous thoroughfare

With their noses in the air

High hats, and arrow collars

White spats, and lots of dollars

Spending every dime

For a wonderful time


Puttin' on the Ritz

Different types who wear a day coat pants with stripes and cutaway coat perfect fits

Puttin' on the Ritz



Come let's mix where Rockefellers walk with sticks or um-ber-ellas in their mitts

Puttin' on the Ritz




Puttin' on the Ritz

Puttin' on the Ritz

Puttin' on the Ritz

Puttin' on the Ritz

Move...

Gotta dance

Gotta dance...


Puttin' on the Ritz...

YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL (James Blunt)

C

My life is brilliant G

My love is pure Am

I saw an angel F

Of that I'm sure

She smiled at me on the subway

She was with another man

But I won't lose no sleep on that

Cause I've got a plan

F G

You're beautiful C

You're beautiful F G C

You're beautiful, it's true

F G

I saw your face C G Am

In a crowded place F G Am

And I don't know what to do F G C

'Cause I'll never be with you

Yes, she caught my eye

As we walked on by

She could see from my face that I was

Fucking high

And I don't think that I'll see her again

But we shared a moment that will last to the end

You're beautiful…

Am Am Am D

La-la-la-la La-la-la-la La-la-la-la La-a

You're beautiful…

There must be an angel

With a smile on her face

When she thought up that I should be with you

But it's time to face the truth

I will never be with you

ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS (David Bowie)

D Bm C#m Gdim F#7 I've nothing much to offer, there's nothing much to take G D C Bm Em A I'm an absolute beginner, but I'm absolutely sane D Bm C#m Gdim F#7 As long as we're together, the rest may go to hell G D C Bm I absolutely love you, but we're absolute beginners G D F# A

With eyes completely open, but nervous all the same

Em A D G

If our love song could fly over mountain Bm F#

Could laugh at the ocean, just like the films Em A D G

There's no reason to feel all the hard times Bm A

To lay down the hard lines, it's absolutely true

Nothing much could happen, nothing we can't shake

Though we're absolute beginners, with nothing much at stake

As long as you're still smiling, there's nothing more I need

I absolutely love you, but we're absolute beginners

But if my love is your love, we're certain to succeed

If our love song could fly over mountain

Could laugh at the ocean, just like the films

There's no reason to feel all the hard times

To lay down the hard lines, it's absolutely true

CHANGES (David Bowie)

C Em

I Still dont know what I was waiting for F G

And my time was running wild, F

A million dead-end streets. C Em

And every time i thought I'd got it made F G13

It seems the taste was not so sweet, C Dm7 Em7 Ebm7

So I turned my self to face me Dm7 G7

But I've never caught a glimpse C Dm7 Em7 Ebm7

Of how the others must see the faker Dm7 G7

I'm much too fast to take that test

F C Em Am

Ch-ch-ch-changes, turn and face the strange. C F Am D

Ch-ch-ch-changes, you wanna be a richer man, G7 F C Em Am C F

Ch-ch-ch-changes, turn and face the strange. Am D

It's gonna be a different man. Am G Bb(add 9) F Am G G11 C

Time may change me -- but i cant trace time

I watch the ripples change their size

But never leave the stream

Of warm impermanence.

And so the days flow thru my eyes

But the days still seem the same.

And this children you spit on

As they try to change their worlds,

Are immune to your consultations.

Theyr'e quite aware of what they're going thru.

Ch-ch-ch-changes, turn and face the strange

Ch-ch-ch-changes, don't tell them to grow up and out of it.


Ch-ch-ch-changes, there's your shame,

you've left us up yo our neck in it.

Time may change me, but you can't trace time.

Strange fascination fascinating me.

Oh changes are taking the place I'm going thru.

Ch-ch-ch-changes, turn and face the strange,

Ch-ch-ch-changes, Oh look out you Rock 'n rollers


Ch-ch-ch-changes, pretty soon now you're gonna get a little older.

Time may change me, But i can't trace time.

HEROES (David Bowie)

D G

I, I will be king D G

And you, you will be queen C D

Though nothing will drive them away C D

We can beat them just for one day C G D

We can be Heroes just for one day

And you, you can be mean

And I, I'll drink all the time

'Cause we're lovers and that is a fact

Yes we're lovers and that is that

Though nothing will keep us together

We could steal time just for one day

We can be Heroes for ever and ever

What do you say?

I, I wish you could swim

Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim

Though nothing will keep us together

We can beat them for ever and ever

Oh we can be Heroes just for one day

I, I can remember

Standing by the wall

And the guards shot above our heads

And we kissed as though nothing could fall

And the Seine was on the other side

Oh we can beat them forever and ever

Then we can be Heroes just for one day

ZIGGY STARDUST (D. Bowie)

G Bm C

Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Wierd and Gilly, C/G-C D

and the Spiders from Mars. G Em Am

He played it left hand, but made it too far, became the special man, C

then we were Ziggy's fans. G Bm C

Ziggy really sang, with screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo, C/G – C D

like some cat from Japan. G Em Am

He could lick 'em by smiling, he could leave 'em to hang; he came on so loaded, man. C

Well-hung and snow-white tan. A G F G

So where were the Spiders? A G F G

While the fly tried to break our bones. A G F G

Just the beer light to guide us. D E

So we bitched about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands...

Ziggy played for time, jiving us that

we were voodoo and the kids was just crass.

He was the nazz with God-given ass.

He took it all too far but boy could he play guitar.

Making love with his ego,

Ziggy sucked up into his mind

Like a leper messiah.

When the kids had killed the man I had to break up the band.

CHAN CHAN (Buena Vista Social Club)

Dm F Gm A …

De Alto Cedro voy para Marcané

Luego A Cueto voy para Mayarí.

El carino que te tengo

Yo no lo puedo negar

Se me sale la babita

Yo no lo puedo evitar

Cuando Juanica y Chan Chan

En el mar cernían arena

Como sacudía el 'jibe'

A Chan Chan le daba pena

Limpia el camino de paja

Que yo me quiero sentar

En aquel tronco que veo

Y así no puedo llegar

I WALK THE LINE (Johnny Cash)

A E7 A

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine A E7 A

I keep my eyes wide open all the time. A D A

I keep the ends out for the tie that binds A E7 A

Because you're mine, I walk the line

I find it very, very easy to be true

I find myself alone when each day is through

Yes, I'll admit I'm a fool for you


As sure as night is dark and day is light

I keep you on my mind both day and night

And happiness I've known proves that it's right


You've got a way to keep me on your side

You give me cause for love that I can't hide

For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide

It will no longer be necesarry F Gm C7

And no more will I say, dear heart Bbmaj7 A7 Dm

I am alone, and she has left me.

And no more shall we part

The contracts are drawn up, the ring is locked upon the finger

And never again will my letters start

Sadly, or in the depths of winter


All the hatchets have been buried now

And all of birds will sing to your

beautiful heart

Upon the bough


Your chain of command has been silenced now

And all of those birds would've sung to your beautiful heart

Anyhow

Lord stay by me Gm C

Don't go down F C

I will never be free Gm C

If I'm not free now

BREATHLESS (Nick Cave)

C G C

It's up in the morning and on the downs G F

Little white clouds like gambolling lambs G C

And I am breathless over you

And the red-breasted robin beats his wings

His throat it trembles when he sings

For he is helpless before you

The happy hooded bluebells bow

And bend their heads all a-down

Heavied by the early morning dew

At the whispering stream, at the bubbling brook

The fishes leap up to take a look

For they are breathless over you

G

Still your hands C

And still your heart G F

For still your face comes shining through G C

And all the morning glows anew

Still your mind

Still your soul

For still, the fare of love is true

And I am breathless without you

The wind circles among the trees

And it bangs about the new-made leaves

For it is breathless without you

The fox chases the rabbit round

The rabbit hides beneath the ground

For he is defenceless without you

The sky of daytime dies away

And all the earthly things they stop to play

For we are all breathless without you

I listen to my juddering bones

The blood in my veins and the wind in my lungs

And I am breathless without you

Still your hands…

178

BROMPTON ORATORY (Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds)

C Am

Up those stone steps I climb Dm G

Hail this joyful day's return C Am

Into it's great shadowed vault I go G# Gm F

Hail the Pentecostal morn

The reading is from luke 24

Where christ returns to his loved ones

I look at the stone apostles

Think that it's alright for some

And I wish that I was made of stone

So that I would not have to see

A beauty impossible to define

A beauty impossible to believe

A beauty impossible to endure

The blood imparted in little sips

The smell of you still on my hands

As I bring the cup up to my lips

No God up in the sky

No devil beneath the sea

Could do the job that you did, baby

Of bringing me to my knees

Outside I sit on the stone steps

With nothing much to do

Forlorn and exhausted, baby

By the absence of you

179

DEATH IS NOT THE END (Nick Cave)

A

When you're sad and when you're lonely

And you haven't got a friend E A

Just remember that death is not the end

And all that you held sacred

Falls down and does not mend


Not the end, not the end


When you're standing on the crossroads

That you cannot comprehend


And all your dreams have vanished

And you don't know what's up the bend




When the storm clouds gather round you

And heavy rains descend


And there's no-one there to comfort you

With a helping hand to lend




A D

For the tree of life is growing A

Where the spirit never dies D

And the bright light of salvation A E

Up in dark and empty skies

When the cities are on fire

With the burning flesh of men


When you search in vain to find

Some law-abiding citizen

INTO MY ARMS (Nick Cave)

F C

I don't believe in an interventionist God F C

But I know, darling, that you do F C

But if I did I would kneel down and ask Him F C

Not to intervene when it came to you F

Not to touch a hair on your head Dm

To leave you as you are G

And if He felt He had to direct you Em G

Then direct you into my arms

Dm

Into my arms, O Lord C

Into my arms, O Lord Dm

Into my arms, O Lord C

Into my arms

And I don't believe in the existence of Angels

But looking at you I wonder if that's true

But if I did I would summon them together

And ask them to watch over you

To each burn a candle fr you

To make bright and clear your path

And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love

And guide you into my arms

Into my arms…

But I believe in Love

And I know that you do too

And I believe in some kind of path

That we can walk down, me and you

So keep your candles burning

And make her journey bright and pure

That she will keep returning

Always and evermore

Into my arms…

LUCY (Nick Cave)

Last night I lay trembling, G Em

the moon it was low G Em

of misery and woe. G D

Now the belltower is ringin' G D

Oh Lucy, can you hear me C D

THE MERCY SEAT (Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds)

It began when they come took me from my home

And put me in Dead Row

Of which I am nearly wholly innocent, you know

And I'll say it again

I am not afraid to die.

Em B(addE)

I began to warm and chill

To objects and their fields

A ragged cup, a twisted mop

The face of Jesus in my soup

Those sinister dinner deals

The meal trolley's wicked wheels

A hooked bone rising from my

food. All things good or ungood.

E5

And the mercy seat is waiting E5(addB)

And I think my head is burning E5 E5(addB)

And in a way I'm yearning to be D5 D5(addA)

done with all this measuring of D5 D5(addA)

truth, An eye for an eye and a tooth for a F5 F5(addC)

tooth, And anyway I told the C5 C5(addG)

truth, And I'm not afraid to die.

Interpret signs and catalogue

A blackened tooth, a scarlet fog

The walls are bad. Black. Bottom kind.

They are the sick breath at my hind



They are the sick breath gathering

at my hind.

I hear stories from the

chamber, How Christ was born into a

manger And like some ragged stranger

Died upon the cross, And might I

say it seems so fitting in its

way He was a carpenter by

trade, Or at least that's what I'm told.

Like my good hand

I tattooed E.V.I.L. across it's

brother's fist

That filthy five! They did

nothing to resist.

In heaven His throne is made of gold

The ark of His testament is

stowed, A throne from which I'm told all

history does unfold, Down here it's

made of wood and wire, And my

body is on fire

And God is never far away.

Into the mercy seat I climb

My head is shaved, my head is

wired, And like a moth that tries to

enter the bright eye, so I go

shuffling out life, Just to

hide in death a while

And anyway I never lied.

My kill-hand is called E.V.I.L.

Wears a wedding band that's G.O.O.D.

'Tis a long suffering shackle

Collaring all that rebel blood

And the mercy seat is waiting…

THE SHIP SONG (Nick Cave)

G D

Come sail your ships around me C G D

and burn your bridges down G D

We make a little history baby C G D

everytime you come around

Come loose your dogs upon me

and let your hair hang down

You are a little mystery to me

everytime you come around.

C G D

We talk about it all night long C G D

we define our moral ground Em G

But when I crawl into your arms C G D

everything comes tumbling down.

Come sail your ships around me

and burn your bridges down

We make a little history baby

everytime you come around

THE WEEPING SONG (Nick Cave)

Gm F Gm

Go son, go down to the water

and see the women weeping there

the men they are weeping too.

Father why are all the women weeping?

They are all weeping for their men

Then whay are all the men there weeping?

They are weeping back at them

F Gm F Gm

This is a weeping song, a song in which to weep Gm F Gm

while all the men and women sleep F Gm F Gm

this is a weeping song but i won't be weeping long.

WHERE THE WILD ROSES GROW (Nick Cave)

Gm C5 Gm

He called me the wild ro-ose A# D

But my name was Elisa Day Gm C5 Gm

Why he called me that I do not kno-ow F5 Gm

For my name was Elisa Day Gm A#

From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one Cm D

She stared in my eyes and smiled Gm A#

Her lips were the colour of the roses Cm D

That grow down the river all bloody and wild

Gm A#

When he knocked on my door and entered the room Cm D

My trembling subsided in his sure embrace Gm A#

He would be my first man and with a careful hand Cm D D7

He wiped off the tears that run down my face

He called me the wild ro-ose…

On the second day I brought her a flower

She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen

I said "Do you know where the wild roses grow

so sweet and scarlet and free?"

On the second day he came with a single red rose

He said "Give me your lust and your sorrow"

I nodded my head as I lay on the bed

"If I show you the roses, will you follow?"


On the third day he took me to the river

He showed me the roses and we kissed

And the last thing I heard was a martyr word

As he knelt above me with a rock in his fist

On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow

She lay on the bank going light as a thief

And I kissed her goodbye, said all beauty must die

And I leant down and planted a rose between her teeth

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE RAIN (CCR)

C

Someone told me long ago

There's a calm before the storm G C

I know, it's been coming for some time

When it's over so they say

It'll rain a sunny day

I know, shining down like water

F G C

I want to know have you ever seen the rain? F G C Am

I want to know have you ever seen the rain F G C

coming down a sunny day

Yesterdays and days before

Sun is cold and rain is hard

I know,it's been that way for all my time

Till forever on it goes

Through the circle fast and slow

I know and it can't stop I wonder

I want to know have you ever seen the rain?

I want to know have you ever seen the rain

coming down a sunny day

187

PROUD MARY (CCR)

D

Left a good job in the city

Working for the man every night and day

And I never lost a minute of sleeping

Worrying 'bout the way things might have been

A

Big wheel keep on turning Bm

Proud Mary keep on burning D

Rolling, rolling , rolling on the river

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis

Pumped a lot of pain in New Orleans

But I never saw the good side of the city

Until I hitched a ride on a river boat queen

Big wheel keep on turning

Proud Mary keep on burning

Rolling, rolling , rolling on the river

188

WHO'LL STOP THE RAIN (CCR)

G C G

Long as I remember, the rain been coming round. G C G

Clouds of mystery pourin', confusion on the ground. C G C G

Good men through the ages, trying to find the sun, C D Em G

And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain.

Heard the singers playing, how we cheered for more.

The crowd had rushed together, tryin' to keep warm.

Still the rain kept pourin', falling on my ears.


I went down Virginia, seeking shelter from the storm.

Cought up in the fable, I watched the tower grow.

Five year plans and new deals, wrapped in golden chains,

A---------------------------|---------------------

E---------------------------|---------------------

You got a fast car, I want a ticket to anywhere

Maybe we make a deal, Maybe together we can get somewhere

Anyplace is better, Starting from zero got nothing to lose

Maybe we'll make something, But me myself I got nothing to prove

You got a fast car, And I got a plan to get us out of here

I been working at the convenience store, Managed to save just a little bit of money

We won't have to drive too far, Just 'cross the border and into the city

You and I can both get jobs, And finally see what it means to be living

You see my old man's got a problem, He live with the bottle that's the way it is

He says his body's too old for working, I say his body's too young to look like his

My mama went off and left him, She wanted more from life than he could give

I said somebody's got to take care of him, So I quit school and that's what I did

You got a fast car, But is it fast enough so we can fly away

We gotta make a decision, We leave tonight or live and die this way

D A

I remember we were driving driving in your car F#m

The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk Esus

City lights lay out before us D F#m

And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder E D F#m

And I had a feeling that I belonged E D E

And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car, And we go cruising to entertain ourselves

You still ain't got a job, And I work in a market as a checkout girl

I know things will get better, You'll find work and I'll get promoted

We'll move out of the shelter, Buy a big house and live in the suburbs

You got a fast car, And I got a job that pays all our bills

You stay out drinking late at the bar, See more of your friends than you do of your kids

I'd always hoped for better, Thought maybe together you and me would find it

I got no plans I ain't going nowhere, So take your fast car and keep on driving

You got a fast car, But is it fast enough so you can fly away

You gotta make a decision, You leave tonight or live and die this way

TALKING 'BOUT THE REVOLUTION (Tracy Chapman)

G Cadd9 Em D …

Don't you know talking about the revolution sounds like a whisper


While they're standing in the woeful lines

Crying in the doorsteps of those armies of salvation

Wasting time in the unemployment lines

Siting 'round waiting for a promotion


Poor people are gonna rise up

And get their share

Poor people are gonna rise up

And take what's theirs

Don't you know you better run, run, run,...

I said you better run, run, run,...

Cause finally the tables are starting to turn

Talking 'bout the revolution

Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn

Talking 'bout the revolution, hold on

Talking 'bout te revolution, oh

While they're standing in the woeful lines

Crying in the doorsteps of those armies of salvation

Wasting time in the unemployment lines

Siting 'round waiting for a promotion


Yes finally the tables are starting to turn

Talking 'bout the revolution

Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn

LAYLA (E. Clapton)

What'll you do when you get lonely

With nobody waitin' by your side?

You've been runnin' and hidin' much too long

You know it's just your foolish pride

Layla you got me on my knees:

Layla I'm beggin' darlin' please:

Layla darlin' won't you ease my worried mind

Tried to give you consolation

Your old man won't let you down

Like a fool I fell in love with you

Turned the whole world upside down




Let's make the best of the situation

Before I finally go insane

Please don't say we'll never find a way

And tell me all my love's in vain

WONDERFUL TONIGHT (E. Clapton)

C G

It's late in the evening F G

She's wondering what clothes to wear C G

She puts on her make-up F G

And brushes her long blond hair F G

And than she'll ask me: C Am

Do I look allright? F G C

And I say: Yes, you look wonderful tonight.

We go to a party

And everyone turns to see

This beautiful lady

That's walking around with me

And then she asks me:

Do you feel allright?

And I say: Yes, I feel wonderful tonight.

F G

I feel wonderful because I see C Am

The love light in your eyes F G

And the wonder of it all F G

Is that you just don't realise C

How much I love you

It's time to go home now

And I've got an aching head

So I give her the car keys

And she helps me to bed

And then I tell her

As I turn out the light

I say: Darling, you were wonderful tonight

Oh, my darling, you were wonderful tonight

Should I cool it or should I blow



If I go there will be trouble

And if I stay there will be double

So you've gotta let me know

Should I cool it or should I blow

Dance me to your beauty Gm

With a burning violin Cm

Dance me through the panic Gm

Till I'm gathered safely in Cm

Lift me like an olive branch Gm

And be my homeward dove D7 Gm

Dance me to the end of love D7 Gm7add11-Gm

Dance me to the end of love

Let me see your beauty

When the witnesses are gone

Let me feel you moving

Like they do in Babylon

Show me slowly what I only

Know the limits of



Dance me to the wedding now

Dance me on and on

Dance me very tenderly and

Dance me very long

We're both of us beneath our love

We're both of us above



Dance me to the children

Who are asking to be born

Dance me through the curtains

That our kisses have outworn

Raise a tent of shelter now

Though every thread is torn



Dance me to your beauty

With a burning violin

Dance me through the panic

Till I'm gathered safely in

Touch me with your naked hand

Or touch me with your glove

FAMOUS BLUE RAINCOAT (L. Cohen)

Am7 F

It's four in the morning, the end of December Dm7 Em7

I'm writing you now just to see if you're better Am7 F

New York is cold, but I like where I'm living Dm7 Em

There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening.

Am7 Bm7 Am7 Bm7

I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert Am7 G Am7 G

You're living for nothing now, I hope you're keeping some kind of record. C G

Yes, and Jane came by with a lock of your hair Am7

She said that you gave it to her 6 Bm7

That night that you planned to go clear F Em

Did you ever go clear?

Ah, the last time we saw you you looked so much older

Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder

You'd been to the station to meet every train

And you came home without Lili Marlene

And you treated my woman to a flake of your life

And when she came back she was nobody's wife.

Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth

One more thin gypsy thief

Well I see Jane's awake --

She sends her regards.

And what can I tell you my brother, my killer

What can I possibly say?

I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you

I'm glad you stood in my way.

If you ever come by here, for Jane or for me

Your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free.

Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes

I thought it was there for good so I never tried.

And Jane came by with a lock of your hair

She said that you gave it to her

That night that you planned to go clear --

Sincerely, L. Cohen

HALLELUJAH (Leonard Cohen)

C C/B Am

I heard there was a secret chord C C/B Am

that David played and it pleased the Lord F G C G

But you don't really care for music do ya C F G

It goes like this the fourth the fifth Am F

the minor fall and the major lift G E Am

The baffled king composing hallelujah F Am F C G C G

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof

You saw her bathing on the roof

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya

She tied you to a kitchen chair

She broke your throne, and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah


Maybe Ive been here before

I know this room Ive walked this floor

I used to live alone before I knew you

Ive seen your flag on the marble arch

Love is not a victory march

It’s a conan it’s a broken hallelujah


There was a time you let me know

Whats real and going on below

But now you never show it to me do you?

I remember when I moved in you

The holy dark was moving too

And every breath we drew was hallelujah


Maybe there’s a better bow

Then all I ever learned from love

Was how to shoot at someone while I drew

you

Its not a cry you can hear at night

Its not somebody whos seen the light

It’s a conan it’s a broken hallelujah


You say I took the name in vain

I don't even know the name

But if I did, well really, what's it to ya?

There's a blaze of light in every word

It doesn't matter which you heard

The holy or the broken Hallelujah


I did my best, it wasn't much

I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch

I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya

And even though it all went wrong

I'll stand before the Lord of Song

With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

HEY, THAT'S NO WAY TO SAY GOODBYE (L. Cohen)

A

I loved you in the morning our kisses deep and warm F#m

Your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm D

Yes, many loved before us I know that we are not new A

In city and in forest they smiled like me and you F#m

But now it's come to distances and both of us must try D

Your eyes are soft with sorrow E A E

Hey, that's no way to say goodbye

I'm not looking for another

As I wander in my time

Walk me to the corner

Our steps will always rhyme

You know my love goes with you

As your love stays with me

It's just the way it changes

Like the shoreline and the sea

But let's not talk of love or chains

And things we can't untie

Your eyes are soft with sorrow


I loved you in the morning

Our kisses deep and warm

Your hair upon the pillow

Like a sleepy golden storm

Yes, many loved before us

I know that we are not new

In city and in forest

They smiled like me and you

But let's not talk of love or chains

And things we can't untie

Your eyes are soft with sorrow

lover, lover come back to me



"I never never turned aside," he said,

"I never walked away.

It was you who built the temple,

it was you who covered up my face."



And may the spirit of this song,

may it rise up pure and free.

May it be a shield for you,

a shield against the enemy.

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover,

lover, lover come back to me

THE PARTISAN (L. Cohen)

(capo 3)

Em G (prehod preko F#) Em

When they poured across the border G (prehod) Em

I was cautioned to surrender, G (prehod) D

this I could not do; C G (prehod) Em

I took my gun and vanished.

I have changed my name so often,

I've lost my wife and children

but I have many friends,

and some of them are with me.

An old woman gave us shelter,

kept us hidden in the garret,

then the soldiers came;

she died without a whisper.

There were three of us this morning

I'm the only one this evening

but I must go on;

the frontiers are my prison.

Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,

through the graves the wind is blowing,

freedom soon will come;

then we'll come from the shadows.

Les Allemands e'taient chez moi,

ils me dirent, "Signe toi,"

mais je n'ai pas peur;

j'ai repris mon arme.

J'ai change' cent fois de nom,

j'ai perdu femme et enfants

mais j'ai tant d'amis;

j'ai la France entiére.

Un vieil homme dans un grenier

pour la nuit nous a cache',

les Allemands l'ont pris;

il est mort sans surprise.

Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing,

through the graves the wind is blowing,

freedom soon will come;

then we'll come from the shadows.

SO LONG MARIANNE (L. Cohen)

A Bm

Come over to the window, my little darling, D A

I'd like to try to read your palm. G D

I used to think I was some kind of Gypsy boy F#m E Esus4 E E7

before I let you take me home.

E7 A F#m

Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began E Esus4 E E7 E Esus4 E E7 A Asus4 A Asus4

to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.

Well you know that I love to live with you,

but you make me forget so very much.

I forget to pray for the angels

and then the angels forget to pray for us.

Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began ...

We met when we were almost young

deep in the green lilac park.

You held on to me like I was a crucifix,

as we went kneeling through the dark.

Oh so long, Marianne, it's time that we began ...

Your letters they all say that you're beside me now.

Then why do I feel alone?

I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web

is fastening my ankle to a stone.

Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began ...

For now I need your hidden love.

I'm cold as a new razor blade.

You left when I told you I was curious,

I never said that I was brave.


Oh, you are really such a pretty one.

I see you've gone and changed your name again.

And just when I climbed this whole mountainside,

to wash my eyelids in the rain!

SUZANNE (L. Cohen)

E

Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river F#m

You can hear the boats go by, you can spend the night beside her. E

And you know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there G#m A

And she feeds you tea and oranges that come all the way from China. E F#m

And just when you mean to tell her that you have no love to give her E F#m

Then she gets you on her wavelength and she lets the river answer E

That you've always been her lover.

G#m

And you want to travel with her A

And you want to travel blind E

And you know that she will trust you F#m E

For you've touched her perfect body with your mind.

And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water

And he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower.

And when he knew for certain only drowning man could see him

He said, "All men shall be sailors then until the sea shall free them."

But he himself was broken long before the sky would open

Forsaken, almost human, he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone.

And you want to travel with him

And you want to travel blind

And you think maybe you'll trust him

For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.

Now Suzanne takes your hand and she leads you to the river

She is wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army counters.

And the sun pours down like honey on our lady of the harbour;

And she shows you where to look among the garbage and the flowers.

There are heroes in the seaweed, there are children in the morning,

They are leaning out for love and they will lean that way forever.

While Suzanne holds the mirror.

And you want to travel with her

And you want to travel blind

And you know that you can trust her

WHO BY FIRE (L. Cohen)

Am G Am

And who by fire Am G Am

Who by water, C G7 C

Who in the sunshine C G7 C

Who in the night time

Am G Am

Who by high ordeal Am G Am

Who by common trial, C G7 C

Who in your merry merry month of may, C G7 C

Who by very slow decay, Am E

Wnd who shall I say is calling?

And who in her lonely slip, who by barbiturate,

Who in these realms of love, who by something blunt,

And who by avalanche, who by powder,

Who for his greed, who for his hunger,

And who shall I say is calling?

And who by brave assent, who by accident,

Who in solitude, who in this mirror,

Who by his lady's command, who by his own hand,

Who in mortal chains, who in power,

And who shall I say is calling?

BLUE MOON REVISITED (Cowboy Junkies)

C Am F G7 …

I only want to say

That if there is a way

I want my baby back with me

Cause he's my true love, my only one don't you see?

And on that fateful day

Perhaps in the new sun of May

My baby walks back into my arms

I'll keep him beside me forever from harm

You see I was afraid

To let my baby astray

I kept him too tightly by my side

And then one sad day, he went away and he died

Blue Moon you saw me standing alone

Without a dream in my heart

Without a love of my own

Blue Moon you knew just what I was there for

You heard me saying a prayer for

Someone I really could care for

I only want to say

That if there is a way

I want my baby back with me

Cause he's my true love, my only one don't you see?

ODE TO MY FAMILY (The Cranberries)

D Bm F#m G …

Understand the things I say, don't turn away from me

Cause I spent half my life out there, you wouldn't disagree.

D'you see me, d'you see, do you like me, do you like me standing there.

D'you notice, d'you know, do you see me, do you see me, does anyone care.

Unhappiness, where's when I was young, and we didn't give a damn.

'Cause we were raised, to see life as fun and take it if we can.

My mother, my mother she hold me, did she hold me, when I was out there.

My father, my father, he liked me, oh he liked me, does anyone care.

Understand what I've become, it wasn't my design.

And people everywhere think, something better than I am.

But I miss you, I miss 'cause I liked it, I liked it, when I was out there.

D'you know this, d'you know, you did not find me, you did not find,

does anyone care.

Unhappiness, where's when I was young, and we didn't give a damn.

'Cause we were raised, to see life as fun and take it if we can.

My mother, my mother she hold me, did she hold me, when I was out there.

My father, my father, he liked me, oh he liked me, does anyone care.

WHEN YOU'RE GONE (Cranberries)

C Am Em G

Hold onto love that is what I do now that I've found you.

And from above everything's stinking, they're not around you.

And in the night, I could be helpless,

I could be lonely, sleeping without you.

And in the day, everything's complex,

There's nothing simple, when I'm not around you.

But I'll miss you when you're gone, that is what I do. Hey, baby!

And it's going to carry on, that is what I do. Hey, baby...

Hold onto my hands, I feel I'm sinking, sinking without you.

And to my mind, everything's stinking, stinking without you.

And in the night, I could be helpless,

I could be lonely, sleeping without you.

And in the day, everything's complex,

There's nothing simple, when I'm not around you.

But I'll miss you when you're gone, that is what I do. Hey, baby!

And it's going to carry on, that is what I do. hey, baby...

DON'T DREAM IT'S OVER (Crowded House)

Asus F#m

There is freedom within, there is freedom without G F#m

Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup Asus F#m

There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost G

But you'll never see the end of the road F#m

While your traveling with me

G A D Bm

Hey now, hey now, don't dream it's over G A D Bm

Hey now, hey now, when the world comes in G A D Bm

They come, they come to build a wall between us G

We know they won't win

Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof

My possessions are casuing me suspicion but there's no proof

In the paper today tales of war and of waste

But you turn right over to the T.V. page

Hey now, hey now, don't dream it's over

Hey now, hey now, when the world comes in

They come, they come to build a wall between us

We know they won't win

Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum

And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart

Only the shadows ahead barely clearing the roof

Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief

Hey now, hey now, don't dream it's over

Hey now, hey now, when the world comes in

They come, they come to build a wall between us

Don't ever let them win

A TOI (Joe Dassin)

Am

A toi, Dm

A la façon que tu as d'être belle, G7

A la façon que tu as d'être à moi, C

A tes mots tendres un peu artificiels, E7

Quelque fois,

A toi,

A la petite fille quetu étais,

A celle que tu es encore souvent,

A ton passé, à tes regrets,

A tes anciens princes charmants,

Am

A la vie, à l'amour,

A nos vies, à nos jours, E7 Am

A l'éternel retour de la chance,

A l'enfant qui viendra,

Qui nous ressemblera, G7 E E7

Qui sera à la fois toi et moi.

A moi,

A la folie dont tu es la raison,

A mes colères sans savoir pourquoi,

A mes silences et à mes trahisons,

Quelque fois,

A moi,

Au temps que j'ai passé à te chercher,

Aux qualités dont tu te moques bien,

Aux défauts que je t'ai caché,

A mes idées de baladin.

A nous,

Aux souvenirs que nous allons nous faire,

A l'avenir et au présent surtout,

A la santé de cette vieille terre,

Qui s'en fout.

A nous,

A nos espoirs et à nos illusions,

A notre prochain premier rendez-vous,

A la santé de ces milliers d'amoureux,

Qui sont comme nous.

CHAMPS ELYSEES (Joe Dassin)

C E7

Je me baladais sur l'avenue Am C7

le coeur ouvert a l'inconue F C

j'avais envie de dire bonjour D7 G7

a n'importe qui

N'importe qui et ce fut toi

Je t'ai dit n'importe quoi

Il suffisait de te parler Dm G7 C

Pour t'aprivoiser

Aux Champs Elysees...

Au soleil, sous la pluie

A midi ou a minuit

Il y a tout ce que vous voulez

Aux Champs Elysees

Tu m'a dit j'ai rendez-vous

Dons un sous-sol avec des fous

Qui vivent la guitare a la main

Du soir au matin

Alors je t'ai acompagne

On a chante on a danse

Et on n'a meme pas penser

A s'embrasser


Hier soir deux inconnus

Et ce matin sur l'avenue

Deux amoureux tout etourdis

De la longue nuit

Et de l'Etoile a la Concorde Un orchestre a mille cordes

Tous les oiseaux du point du jour

Chantenet l'amour

ET SI TU N'EXISTAIS PAS (Joe Dassin)

Gm

Et si tu n'existais pas Cm

Dis-moi pourquoi j'existerais D7

Pour traîner dans un monde sans toi Gm

Sans espoir et sans regret Gm

Et si tu n'existais pas Cm Cm6

J'essaierais d'inventer l'amour Cm F7

Comme un peintre qui voit sous ses doigts B

Naître les couleurs du jour D7

Et qui n'en revient pas

Et si tu n'existais pas

Dis-moi pour qui j'existerais

Des passantes endormies dans mes bras

Que je n'aimerais jamais


Je ne serais qu'un point de plus

Dans ce monde qui vient et qui va

Je me sentirais perdu

J'aurais besoin be toi

(Solo: Hm Em Hm Em A)


Dis-moi comment j'existerais

Je pourrais faire semblant d'ętre moi

Mais je ne serais pas vrai


Je crois que je l'aurais trouvé

Le secret de la vie, le pourquoi

Simplement pour te créer

Et pour te regarder (Dm Gm Dm - x2)

L'ÉTÉ INDIEN (Joe Dassin)

Dm Gm A7

Tu sais, je n'ai jamais été aussi heureux que ce matin-lŕ Dm Gm A7

Nous marchions sur une plage un peu comme celle-ci Dm A

C'était l'automne, un automne oů il faisait beau D7

Une saison qui n'existe que dans le Nord de l'Amérique Gm

Lá-bas on l'appelle l'été indien E

Mais c'était tout simplement le nôtre Dm

Avec ta robe longue tu ressemblais Bdim

A une aquarelle de Marie Laurencin E7 A7

Et je me souviens, je me souviens três bien

De ce que je t'ai dit ce matin-lá A7

Il y a un an, y a un siêcle, y a une éternité Dm A

On ira oů tu voudras, quand tu voudras D7 Gm

Et l'on s'aimera encore, lorsque l'amour sera mort E Dm

Toute la vie sera pareille á ce matin Bdim E7

Aux couleurs de l'été indien

Aujourd'hui je suis três loin de ce matin d'automne

Mais c'est comme si j'y étais. Je pense á toi.

Où es-tu? Que fais-tu? Est-ce que j'existe encore pour toi?

Je regarde cette vague qui n'atteindra jamais la dune

Tu vois, comme elle je reviens en arrière

Comme elle je me couche sur le sable

Et je me souviens, je me souviens des marées hautes

Du soleil et du bonheur qui passaient sur la mer

Il y a une éternité, un siècle, il y a un an

SALUT LES AMOUREUX (Joe Dassin)

C G C

Les matins se suivent et se ressemblent, Am F C

Quand l'amour fait place au quotidien. C G C

On n'était pas fait pour vivre ensemble, Am G C

Ca n'suffit pas toujours de s'aimer bien. Am

C'est drôle, hier, on s'ennuyait Em

Et c'est à peine si l'on trouvait, G D

Des mots pour se parler du mauvais temps. Am

Et maintenant qu'il faut partir, Em

On a cent mille choses à dire, G G7 C

Qui tiennent trop à coeur pour si peu de temps.

F G7 C

On s'est aimé comme on se quitte, Am F C

Tout simplement sans penser à demain, G7 C G Am D7

A demain qui vient toujours un peu trop vite, F G7 C

Aux adieux qui quelque fois se passent un peu trop bien.

On fait c'qu'il faut, on tient nos rôles,

On se regarde, on rit, on crâne un peu,

On a toujours oublié quelque chose,

C'est pas facile de se dire adieu.

Et l'on sait que tôt ou tard,

Demain peut-être ou même ce soir,

On va se dire que tout n'est pas perdu,

De ce roman inachevé, on va se faire un conte de fées,

Mais on a passé l'âge, on n'y croirait plus.

On s'est aimé comme on se quitte…

Roméo, Juliette et tous les autres,

Au fond de vos bouquins dormez en paix,

Un simple histoire comme la nôtre,

Est de celles qu'on écrira jamais.

Allons petite il faut partir,

Laisser ici nos souvenirs,

On va descendre ensemble si tu veux,

Et quand elle va nos voir,

La patronne du café,

Va encore nous dire "Salut les amoureux".

On s'est aimé comme on se quitte…

BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S (Deep Blue Something)

D G A D

You say that we've got nothing in common, G A D

no common ground to start from, G A D G A

and we’re falling apart.

You'll say, the world has come between us,

Our lives have come between us,

but I know you just don't care.

D A G

And I said, What about Breakfast at Tiffany's? D A G

She said, I think I remember the film D A G

and as I recall, I think, we both kinda liked it. D A G

And I said, well, that's the one thing we got.

I see you the only

one who knew me,

and now your eyes see through me.

I guess I was wrong.

So what now?

It's plain to see we're over,

and I hate when things are over,

when so much is left undone.

221

ANNIE’S SONG (John Denver)

G C D Em C G

You fill up my senses, like a night in the forest. C D Am C D

Like a mountain in springtime, like a walk in the rain. C D Em C G

Like a storm in the desert, like a sleepy blue ocean. C D Am D G

You fill up my senses, come fill me again.

Come let me love you, let me give my life for you.

Let me drown in your laughter, let me die in your arms.

Let me lay down beside you, let me always be with you.

Come let me love you, come love me again.

You fill up my senses, like a night in the forest.

Like a mountain in spring time, like a walk in the rain.

Like a storm in the desert, like a sleepy blue ocean.

You fill up my senses, come fill me again.

222

THANK YOU (Dido)

Em C D

My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why G G/F# Em

I got out of bed at all.

The morning rain clouds up my window

and I can't see at all.

And even if I could it'd all be grey,

but your picture on my wall

it reminds me that it's not so bad, C

it's not so bad

I drank too much last night, got bills to pay,

my head just feels in pain.

I missed the bus and there'll be hell today,

I'm late for work again.

And even if I'm there, they'll all imply

that I might not last the day.

And then you call me and it's not so bad,

it's not so bad and

G C

I want to thank you G C

For giving me the best day of my life.

Oh just to be with you

Is having the best day of my life

Push the door, I'm home at last

and I'm soaking through and through.

Then you hand me a towel

and all I see is you.

And even if my house falls down,

I wouldn't have a clue.

Because you're near me and

I want to thank you

For giving me the best day of my life.

Oh just to be with you

Is having the best day of my life

223

BROTHERS IN ARMS (Dire Straits)

Am F G

These mist covered mountains C Gm

Are a home now for me Am Em

But my home is in the lowlands F G

And always will be Am Em

Some day you'll return to F G

Your valleys and your farms Am

And you'll no longer burn Dm G Am F G

To be brothers in arms

Through these fields of destruction

Baptisms of fire

I've watched all your suffering

As the battles raged higher

And though they did hurt me so bad

In the fear and alarm

You did not desert me

My brothers in arms

Am G Am G

There's so many different worlds F G

So many different suns Am G Am G And we have just one world F G F But we live in different ones

Now the sun's gone to hell

And the moon's riding high

Let me bid you farewell

Every man has to die

But it's written in the starlight

And every line on your palm

We're fools to make war

On our brothers in arms

224

TELEGRAPH ROAD (Dire Straits)

A long time ago came a man on a track

Walking 30 miles with a sack on his back

And he put down his load

Where he thought it was the best

He made a home in the wilderness

He built a cabin and a winter store

And he ploughed up the ground

By the cold lake shore

And the other travellers came riding down the track

And they never went further and they never went back

Then came the churches than came the schools

Then came the lawyers then came the rules

Then came the trains and the trucks with their loads

And the dirty old track was the telegraph road

Then came the miners then came the ore

Then there was the hard times then there was a war

Telegraph sang a song about the world outside

Telegraph road got so deep and so wide

Like a rolling river

And my radio says tonight is gonna freeze

People driving home from the factories

There's six lanes of traffic, three lanes moving slow

---

I used to like to go to work but they shut it down

I've got a right to go to work

But there's no work here to be found

Yes, and they say we're gonna have to pay what's owed

We're gonna have to reap from some seed that's been sowed

And the birds upon wires and the telegraph poles

They can always fly away from this rain and this cold

You can hear them singing out their telegraph code

All the way down the telegraph road

I'd rivers of rain from the anger that

Lives on the streets with these names

Cause I've run every red light on memory lane

I've seen desperation explode into flames

And I don't want to see it again

From all these signs saying sorry, but we're closed

All the way down the telegraph road

225

WHY WORRY (Dire Straits)

Baby I see this world has made you sad

Some people can be bad

The things they do, the things they say

But baby I'll wipe away those bitter tears

I'll chase away those restless fears

That turn your blue skies into grey

Why worry, there should be laughter after pain

There should be sunshine after rain

These things have always been the same

So why worry now

Baby when I get down I turn to you

And you make sense of what I do

I know it isn't hard to say

But baby just when this world seems mean and cold

Our love comes shining red and gold

And all the rest is by the way

Why worry, there should be laughter after pain

There should be sunshine after rain

These things have always been the same

So why worry now

226

LIGHT MY FIRE (Doors)

Am7 F#m7 …

You know that it would be untrue

You know that I would be a liar

If I was to say to you

Girl, we couldn't get much higher

G A D

Come on, baby, light my fire G A D

Come on, baby, light my fire G D E

Try to set the night on fire

The time to hasitate is through

No time to wallow in the mire

Try now we can only loose

And our love becomes a funeral pyre

CLOTHES OF SAND (Nick Drake)

Who has dressed you in strange clothes of sand,

Who has taken you far from my land,

Who has said that my sayings were wrong,

And who will say that I stayed much too long?

Clothes of sand have covered your face,

Given you meaning but taken my place,

So make your way on down to the sea,

Something has taken you so far from me.

Does it now seem worth all the colour of skies,

To see the the earth through painted eyes,

To look through panes of shaded glass,

See the stains of winter grass?

Can you now return from where you came,

Try to burn your changing name,

Or with silver spoons and colored light,

Will you worship moons in winter night?

Clothes of sand have covered your face,

Given you meaning but taken my place,

So make your way on down to the sea,

Something has taken you so far from me.

229

STRANGE MEETING II (Nick Drake)

Deep down in the depths of forgotten dreams,

So far away so long ago it seems,

The memory comes of a distant beach,

Pale sand stretching far from reach,

It was then I found my princess of the sand.

As I traced the foam, pebbles beneath my feet,

I looked behind, I saw this one so sweet,

She came to me and I saw in her eyes,

The heavy toll of a thousand sights,

I called her my princes of the sand.

She stared at me and my mind was in a maze,

As we moved along in a summer sea dream haze,

She moved her mouth but there came no sound,

The message she brought can never be found,

But I called her my princess of the sand.

One moment we walked with the night breeze in our face,

Then I looked, she'd gone,

Of her presence there was no trace

Where she went or came from who can know,

Or if she'll ever return to help me know,

Who she is, my princess of the sand.

Sometime, when the summer nights come back,

I'll go back to the sea, follow that sandy track,

I'll look around, hope to find

That strange young dream, close behind,

I'll call her my princess of the sand.

230

SEVEN DRUNKEN NIGHTS (Trad. Arr. Dubliners)

As I went home on a Monday night

As drunk as drunk could be

I saw a hart outside the door

Where my old hart should be

Well I called me wife and I said to her:

Will you kindly tell to me

Who owns that hart outside the door

Where my old hart should be

You drunk, you drunk, you silly old fool

Still you cannot see

That's a lovely sow that me mother sent to me

Well it's many a day I travelled

A hundred mile no more

But a seddle on a sow sure I never saw before

And as I went home on a Tuesday night


I saw a coat behind the door

Where my old coat should be



Who owns that coat behind the door

Where my old coat should be



That's a woolen blanket that me mother sent to me



But buttons in a blanket sure I never saw before

And as I went home on a Wednesday night


I saw a pipe upon the chair

Where my old pipe should be



Who owns that pipe upon the chair

Where my old pipe should be



That's a lovely tin whistle that me mother sent to me



But tobacco in a tin whistle sure I never saw before

And as I went home on a Thursday night


I saw two bots beneath the bed

Where my old boots should be



Who owns them boots beneath the bed

Where my old boots should be



They're two lovely duranium pots me mother

sent to me



But laces in duranium pots I never saw before

And as I went home on a Friday night


I saw a head inside my bed

Where my old head should be



Who owns that head with you in the bed

Where my old head should be



That's a baby boy that me mother sent to me



But a baby boy with his whiskers on I never

saw before

ORDINARY WORLD (Duran Duran)

C#m E B

Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue C#m E B

thought I heard you talking softly C#m E B

I turned on the lights, the tv and the radio C#m E B

still I can't escape the ghost of you

C#m

What is happened to it all? G#m

Crazy, some say D# A

Where is the life that I recognize?

gone away

B F#m

But I won't cry for yesterday A

there's an ordinary world B

somehow I have to find F#m

And as I try to make my way A

to the ordinary world B

I will learn to survive

Passion or coincidence

once prompted you to say

"Pride will tear us both apart"

Well now pride's gone out the window

cross the rooftops, runaway

left me in the vacuum of my heart

What is happening to me?

Crazy, some say

Where is my friend when I need you most?

Gone away

But I won't cry …

Papers in the roadside

tell of suffering and greed

feared today, forgot tomorrow

ooh, here beside the news

of holy war and holy need

ours is just a little sorrowed talk

And I don't cry …

every world is my world

(I will learn to survive)

IL EST CINQ HEURES, PARIS S'ÉVEILLE (Jacques Dutronc)

Am

Je suis l'dauphin d'la place Dauphine C

Et la place Blanche a mauvaise mine Am

Les camions sont pleins de lait C

Les balayeurs sont pleins d'balais

E7

Il est cinq heures Am Bm

Paris s'éveille E7 Am

Paris s'éveille

Les travestis vont se raser

Les stripteaseuses sont rhabillées

Les traversins sont écrasés

Les amoureux sont fatigués

Il est cinq heures…

Le café est dans les tasses

Les cafés nettoient leurs glaces

Et sur le boulevard Montparnasse

La gare n'est plus qu'une carcasse


Les banlieusards sont dans les gares

A la Villette on tranche le lard

Paris by night, regagne les cars

Les boulangers font des bâtards


La tour Eiffel a froid aux pieds

L'Arc de Triomphe est ranimé

Et l'Obélisque est bien dressé

Entre la nuit et la journée


Les journaux sont imprimés

Les ouvriers sont déprimés

Les gens se levent, ils sont brimés

C'est l'heure oů je vais me coucher

BLOWING IN THE WIND (B. Dylan)

G C D G

How many roads must a man walk down C D

Before you call him a man?

Yes and how many seas must a white dove sail

Before she sleeps in the sand?

Yes and how many miles must the canon balls fly

Before they're forever banned?

C D G C

The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind D G

The answer is blowing in the wind

How many times must a man look up

Before he can see the sky?

Yes and how many ears must one man have

Before he can hear people cry?

Yes and how many deaths will it take,

Till he knows, that too many people have died?

The answer...

How many years can a mountain exist

Before it's washed to the sea?

Yes and how many years can some people exist

Before they're allowed to be free?

Yes and how many times can a man turn his head

Pretending he just doesn't see?

The answer...

Cause I can't use it anymore C G Dm

It's getting dark, too dark to see C G F

I feel I'm knocking on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door...

Mamma put my guns in the ground

I can't shoot them anymore

That long black cloud is coming down

I feel I'm knocking on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door...

SARA (B. Dylan)

Em Am

I laid on a dune I looked at the sky D Em

When the children were babies And played on

the beach Am

You came up to behind me I saw you go by D Em

You were always so close and still within'

reach

G Bm C

Sara, Sara D C Em

Whatever made you want to change your

mind G Bm C

Sara, Sara D C Em

So easy to look at, so hard to define.

I can still see them playin'

With their pails in the sand

They run to the water

Their buckets to fill

I can still see the shells

Fallin' out of their hands

As they follow each other

Back up the hill

Sara, Sara

Sweet virgin angel, sweet love of my life

Sara, Sara

Radiant jewel, mystical wife

Sleepin' in the woods

By a fire in the night

Drinkin' white rum

In a Portugal bar

Them playin' leap-frog

And hearin' about Snow White

You in the market place

In Savanna-la-Mar

Sara, Sara

It's all so clear, I could never forget

Sara, Sara

Lovin' you is the one thing I'll never regret

I can still hear the sounds

Of those Methodist bells

I'd taken the cure

And had just gotten through

Stayin' up for days

In the Chelsea Hotel

Writin' "Sad-Eyed Lady

Of the Lowlands" for you

Sara, Sara

Wherever we travel we're never apart

Sara, oh Sara

Beautiful lady, so dear to my heart

How did I meet you

I don't know

A messenger sent me

In a tropical storm

You were there in the winter

Moonlight on the snow

And on Lily Pond Lane

When the weather was warm

Sara, oh Sara

Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress

Sara, Sara

You must forgive me my unworthiness

Now the beach is deserted

Except for some kelp

And a peice of an old ship

That lies on the shore

You always responded

When I needed your help

You gimme a map

And a key to your door

Sara, oh Sara

Glamorous nymph with an arrow and bow

Sara, oh Sara

Don't ever leave me, don't ever go

HOTEL CALIFORNIA (The Eagles)

Hm

On a dark, desert highway F#

Cool wind in my hair A E

Worm smell of colitas rising up through the air G D

Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light E

My head grew heavy and my sight grew dimmer F#

I had to stop for the night

There she stood in the doorway

I heard the mission bell

I was thinking to myself: "This could be heaven and this could be hell."

Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way

There were voices down the corridor

I thought I heard them say: G D

"Welcome to the Hotel California E F#

Such a lovely place, such a lovely face.

Plenty of room at the Hotel California

Any time of year you can find me here."

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she's got the Mercedes bends

She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys that she calls friends

How they danced in the courtyard

Sweet summer sweat

Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the Captain: "Please bring me my wine!"

He said:"We haven't had that spirit here since 1969."

And still those voices are calling from far away

Wake you up in the middle of the night

Just to hear them say:

"Welcome to the Hotel California

Such a lovely place, such a lovely face."

They're livin' it up at the Hotel California

What a nice surprise bring your alibies

Mirrors on the ceiling, pink champagne on ice and she said:

"We are all just prisoners here of our own device"

And in the master's chambers

They gathered for the feast

They stab it with their steely knives

But they just can't kill the beast.

Last thing I remember I was running for the door

I had to find the passage back to the place I was before

"Relax," said the night man, "We are programmed to receive

You can check out any time you like but you can never leave"

237

C'EST LA VIE (Emerson, Lake and Palmer)

C'est la vie

Have your leaves all turned to brown

Will you scatter them around you

C'est la vie.

Do you love

And then how am I to know

If you don't let your love show for me

C'est la vie.

In the night

Do you light a lover's fire

Do the ashes of desire for you remain.

Like the sea

There's a love too deep to show

Took a storm before my love flowed for you

C'est la vie... Oh, c'est la vie

Who knows, who cares for me

C'est la vie.

Like a song

Out of tune and out of time

All I neede was a rhyme for you

C'est la vie.

Do you give

Do you live from day to day

Is there no song I can play for you

C'est la vie... Oh, c'est la vie.

THE WAY (Fastball)

F#m

They made up their minds Bm

And they started packing C# F#m

They left before the sun came up that day F# Bm

An exit to eternal summer slacking F#m Bm C# F#m

But where were they going without ever knowing the way?

They drank up the wine

And they got to talking

They now had more important things to say

And when the car broke down they started walking

Where were they going without ever knowing the way?

E A E

Anyone can see the road that they walk on is paved in gold F#m

And it's always summer C#

They'll never get cold D

They'll never get hungry A E

They'll never get old and grey

You can see their shadows wandering off somewhere

They won't make it home

But they really don't care

They wanted the highway A E C#

They're happier there today, today

Their children woke up

And they couldn't find them

They left before the sun came up that day

They just drove off and left it all behind 'em

But where were they going without ever

Knowing the way?

Anyone can see the road…

LA CHANSON DE PRÉVERT (Serge Gainsbourg)

Am C

Oh je voudrais tant que tu te souviennes F C

Cette chanson était la tienne G C

C'était ta préférée je crois E7 Am

Qu'elle est de Prévert et Kosma F C

Et chaque fois les feuilles mortes G C

te rappellent à mon souvenir F C

Jour après jour les amours mortes E7 Am

n'en finissent pas de mourir

Avec d'autres bien sûr je m'abandonne

Mais leur chanson est monotone

Et peu à peu je m'indiffère

A cela il n'est rien a faire

Car chaque fois les feuilles mortes

Te rappellent à mon souvenir

Jour après jour les amours mortes

N'en finissent pas de mourir

Peut-on jamais savoir par où commence

Et quand finit l'indifférence

Passe l'automne vienne l'hiver

Et que la chanson de Prévert

Cette chanson les Feuilles Mortes

S'efface de mon souvenir

Et ce jour là mes amours mortes

En auront fini de mourir

Et ce jour là mes amours mortes

En auront fini de mourir

SOLO LE PIDO A DIOS (Leon Gieco)

Em

G C G

Sólo le pido a Díos C (walk down) Am

que el dolor no me sea indiferente Bm G D

que la reseca muerte no me encuentre C (walk dowm) Em

vacio y sólo, sin haber hecho lo suficiente.

Sólo le pido a Díos

que lo injusto no me sea indiferente

que no me abofeteen la otra mejilla

despues de que una garra me araño esta suerte.


que la guerra no me sea indiferente,

es un monstruo grande y pisa fuerte

toda la pobre inoscencia de la gente.


que el engaño me me sea indiferente,

si un traidor puede más que unos cuantos

que esos cuantos no lo olviden facilmente.


que el futuro no me sea indiferente

desahuciado está el que tiene que marchar

a vivir una cultura diferente.

Solo le pido a Díos

que la guerra no me sea indiferente,

es un monstruo grande y pisa fuerte

toda la pobre inoscencia de la gente.

PATIENCE (Guns and Roses)

C

Shed a tear 'cause I'm missing you G

I'm still allright to smile A D

Girl I think about you every day now

Was a time when I wasn't sure but

you set my mind at ease

There is no doubt you're in my heart now

C G

Said woman take it slow C Em

It'll work itself out fine C G D

All we need is just a little patience

Said sugar make it slow and

It'll come together fine

All we need is just a little patience

I sit here on the stairs 'cause I'd rather be alone

If I can't have you right now I'll wait dear

Sometimes I get so tense

But I can't speed up the time

But you know love there's one more thing to consider

Sid woman take it slow

And things will be just fine

You and I just need a little patience

Said sugar take the time

Cause the lights are shinning bright

You and I've got what it takes to make it

We won't fake it

I'll never break it

Guess I can take it

Another forever. G

I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you



With you

Nobody loves no one

I dreamed I met a Galilean Bm C

A most amazing man F#7 F#7+ G Em6

crying for this man

And then I heard them mentioning my name

And leaving me the blame

And the mountain should crumble to the sea

Oh darling, darling…

Stand by me, oh, stand by me

Won't you please

STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN (Led Zeppelin)

There's a lady who's sure

All that gliters is gold

And she's buying a stairway to heaven

When she gets there she knows

If the stores are all closed

With a word she can get

What she came for


There's a sign on the wall

But she wants to be sure

'cause you know sometimes words have two meanings

In a tree by the brook

There's a songbird who sings

Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven

There's a feeling I get

When I look to the west

And my spirit is crying for leaving

In my thoughts I have seen

Rings of smoke through the trees

And the voices of those of stand looking

And it makes me wonder

It really makes me wonder

And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune

Then the piper will lead us to reason

And a new day will dawn for those who stand long

And the forests will echo in laughter

If there's a bustle in your headgerow don't be alarmed now

It's just a spring clean for the May queen

Yes, there are two paths you can go by but in the long run

There's still time to change the road you're on

And it makes me wonder

Your head is humming and it won't go in case you don't know

The piper's calling you to join him

Dear lady can you hear the wind blow

And did you know your stairway lies on the whispering wind

And as we wind on down the road

Our shadows taller than our soul

There walks a lady we all know

Who shines white light and wants to know

How everything still turns to gold

And if you listen very hard

The tune will come to you at last

When all are one and one is all

To be a rock and not to roll


251

IMAGINE (J. Lennon)

C Cmaj7 F

Imagine there's no heaven

It's easy if you try

No hell below us

Above us only sky F Am Dmin7 G G7

Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion too

Imagine all the people living life in peace

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will be as one

Imagine no possession

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of men

Imagine all the people sharing all the world

You may say I'm a dreamer...

SUMMER IN THE CITY (The Lovin' Spoonful)

Hot town, summer in the city

Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty

Been down, isn't it a pity

Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

All around, people looking half dead

Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

But at night it's a different world

Go out and find a girl

Come-on come-on and dance all night

Despite the heat it'll be alright

And babe, don't you know it's a pity

That the days can't be like the nights

In the summer, in the city

In the summer, in the city

Cool town, evening in the city

Dressing so fine and looking so pretty

Cool cat, looking for a kitty

Gonna look in every corner of the city

Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop

Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop

But at night it's a different world…

Hot town, summer in the city

Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty

Been down, isn't it a pity

Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

All around, people looking half dead

Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

But at night it's a different world

253

THIS IS THE LIFE (Amy MacDonald)

Bm G D F#

Oh the wind whistles down

The cold dark street tonight

And the people they were dancing to the music vibe

And the boys chase the girls

With the curls in their hair

And the shy tormented youth sit way over there

And the songs they get louder

Each one better than before

And you're singing the songs

Thinking this is the life

And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size

Where you gonna go

Where you gonna go

Where you gonna sleep tonight

So you're heading down the road

In your taxi for four

And you're waiting outside Jimmy's front door

But nobody's in and nobody's home 'til four

So you're sitting there with nothing to do

Talking about Robert Riger and his motley crew

And where you're gonna go and where you're gonna sleep tonight

Shadows on hills sketch the tress and daffodils C

Catch the breeze and the winter chill D7 G In colors on the snowy linen land

How you tried to set them free A7 Am7

Starry starry nite flamings flowr's that brightly blaze

Swirling coulds in violet haze reflect in VIncents eyes of china blue

Colors changing hue, morning fields of amber graing

Weatherd faces lined in pain are soothed beneath the artists loving hand

And now I understand what you tried to say to me

How you suffered for you sanity, how you tried to set them free

You took you life as lovers often do But I could of told you Vinvent C D7 G

This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you

Starry starry nite portraits hung in empty halls

frameless heads on nameless walls with i's that watch the world and cant forget

Like the strangers that youve met,the ragged men in ragged clothes

The silver thorn the bloody rose Lire crushed and broken on the virgin snow

And now I understand what you tried to say to me

How you suffered for you sanity

How you tried to set them free

They would not listen they’re not listening still

perhaps they never will

ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE (Monti Python)

Am D G Em

Some things in life are bad they can really make you mad Am D G

Other things just make you swear and curse Am D

When you're chewing a life's gristle G Em

Don't grumble give a whistle Am D7

And this'll help things turn out for the best

G Em Am D7 G Em Am D7

And always look on the bright side of life G Em Am D7 G Em Am D7

Always look on the light side of life

If life seems jolly rotten there's something you've forgotten

and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.

When you've feeling in the dumps don't be silly chumps

Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing

And always look on the bright side of life

Come on always look on the bright side of life

For life is quite absurd and death's the final word

you must always face the curtain with a bow

Forget about your sin - give the audience a grin

Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow.

So always look on the bright side of death

just before you draw your terminal breath

Life's a piece if shit when you look at it

Life's a laugh and death's a joke it's true

You'll see it's all a show

keep'em laughing as you go

just remember that the last laugh is on you

And always look on the bright side of life

Always look on the right side of life

Always look on the right side of life A F# Bm E7 A F# Bm E7

Some hand in hand

Just what I'm going through

A WHITER SHADE OF PALE (Van Morrison)

C Am

We skipped the light fandango F Dm

And turned cartwheels across the floor G Em G7

I was feeling kind of seasick C Am Em

But the crowd called out for more

F Dm

The room was humming harder G Em G7

As the ceiling flew away C Am Em

When we called out for another drink F Dm

The waiter brought a tray

G13 C6 Cmaj7 Am C

And so it was that later F Dm

As the miller told his tale G Em

That her face at first just ghostly G7 C F C G7 C

Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said "There is no reason,

And the truth is plain to see,"

But I wandered through my playing cards

And would not let her be

One of sixteen vestal virgins

Who were leaving for the coast

And although my eyes were open

They might just as well have been closed

260

BROWN EYED GIRL (Van Morrison)

Hey, where did we go, days when the rain came

Down in the hollow, playing a new game

Laughing, and a running, hey, hey

Skipping and a jumping in the misty morning fog,

with our hearts a thumpin' and

C D G Em

you, my brown eyed girl C D G

You, my brown eyed girl

Whatever happened to Tuesday and so slow

Going down to the old mine

With a transistor radio

Standing in the sunlight laughing

Hiding behind a rainbow's wall

Slipping and a sliding

All along the waterfall

With you, my brown eyed girl


D7

Do you remember when we used to sing G C G D7

Sha la la la la la la la di da Just like that G C G D7 G

Sha la la la la la la la te da la te da

Now that I'm all on my own

I saw you just the other day

My, how you have grown

Cast my memory back there Lord

Sometimes I'm overcome thinkin' 'bout it

Laughing and a running hey, hey

Behind the stadium

With you, my brown eyed girl

MOONDANCE (Van Morrison)

Am7 Bm7 Am7 Bm7 …

well it's a marvelous night for a moondance with the

stars up above in your eyes

a fantabulous night to make romance 'neath the

color of october skies

all the leaves on the trees are falling to the

sounds of the breezes that blow

and I'm trying to place to the calling of the

heartstrings that play soft and low

Dm7 Am7

and every time I touch you Dm7 Am7

you just tremble in-side Dm7 Am7

and I know how much you want me Dm7 E7

that I can’t hide

I can't wait til the morning has come

and I know that the time will be just right

and straight into my arms you will come

when you come my heart will be waiting

to be sure that you're never alone

there and then all my dreams will come true dear

there and then I will make you my own

you know the night's magic seems to

whisper and hush

and all the soft moonlight seems to shine

on your blush

Can I just have one more moondance with you my love?

Can I just make some more romance with you my love?

THE WAY YOUNG LOVERS DO (Van Morrison)

We strolled through fields all wet with rain

And back along the lane again Dm Am

There in the sunshine, in the sweet summertime E Am

The way that young lovers do

I kissed you on the lips once more

And we said goodbye at your front door

In the nighttime, yeah that's the right time

To feel the way that young lovers do

C G

Then we sat on our own star and dreamed C F E

Of the way that we were and the way that we wanted to be C G

Then we sat on our own star and dreamed C F E

Of the way that I was for you and you were for me

And then we danced the night away

And turn into each other and say

I love you, I love you

The way that young lovers do

Then we sat on our own star and dreamed

Of the way that we were and the way that we wanted to be

Then we sat on our own star and dreamed

Of the way that I was for you and you were for me

HEAD OVER FEET (Alanis Morrissette)

D A Bm G …

I had no choice but to hear you

You stated your case time and again

I thought about it

You treat me like I'm a princess

I'm not used to liking that

You ask how my day was

B E C#m A B

You've already won me over in spite of me E C#m A B

Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet E C#m A B

Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are G D

I couldn't help it A B

It's all your fault

Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole

You're so much braver than I gave you credit for

That's not lip service

B E C#m A B

You've already won me over in spite of me E C#m A B

Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet E C#m A B

Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are G D

I couldn't help it A B

It's all your fault

You are the bearer of unconditional things

You held your breath and the door for me

Thanks for your patience

You're the best listener that I've ever met

You're my best friend

Best friend with benefits

What took me so long

I've never felt this healthy before

I've never wanted something rational

I am aware now

I am aware now

MA LIBERTÉ (Georges Moustaki)

Am

Ma liberté Dm Dm7

Longtemps je t'ai gardée G G7 C E7

Comme une perle rare Am Dm

Ma liberté, C'est toi qui m'a aidé E7 Am

A larguer les amarres C F

Pour aller n'importe où C

Pour aller jusqu'au bout E7

Des chemins de fortune Am C

Pour cueillir en rêvant E7

Une rose des vents Am

Sur un rayon de lune

Ma liberté

Devant tes volontés

Mon âme était soumise

Ma liberté, Je t'avais tout donné

Ma dernière chemise

Et combien j'ai souffert

Pour pouvoir satisfaire

Toutes tes exigences

J'ai changé de pays

J'ai perdu mes amis

Pour gagner ta confiance

Ma liberté

Tu as su désarmer

Toutes Mes habitudes

Ma liberté, Toi qui m'a fait aimer

Même la solitude

Toi qui m'as fait sourire

Quand je voyais finir

Une belle aventure

Toi qui m'as protégé

Quand j'allais me cacher

Pour soigner mes blessures

Ma liberté

Pourtant je t'ai quittée

Une nuit de décembre

J'ai déserté les chemins écartés

Que nous suivions ensemble

Lorsque sans me méfier

Les pieds et poings liés

Je me suis laissé faire Dm Am

Et je t'ai trahi pour G

Une prison d'amour Am

Et sa belle geôlière

ONE NIGHT IN BANGKOK (Murray Head, Chess)

Bangkok, Oriental setting and the city don't know that the city is getting

The creme de la creme of the chess world in a show with everything but Yul Brynner

Time flies -- doesn't seem a minute

Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it

All change -- don't you know that when you

Play at this level there's no ordinary venue

It's Iceland -- or the Philippines -- or Hastings -- or -- or this place!

One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster

The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free

You'll find a god in every golden cloister

And if you're lucky then the god's a she

I can feel an angel sliding up to me

One town's very like another when your head's down over your pieces, brother

It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity to be looking at the board, not looking at the city

Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town --

Tea, girls, warm, sweet

Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite

Get Thai'd! You're talking to a tourist

Whose every move's among the purest

I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble

Not much between despair and ecstasy

One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble

Can't be too careful with your company

I can feel the devil walking next to me

Siam's gonna be the witness

To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness

This grips me more than would a

Muddy old river or reclining Buddha

And thank God I'm only watching the game -- controlling it --

I don't see you guys rating the kind of mate I'm contemplating

I'd let you watch, I would invite you but the queens we use would not excite you

So you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massage parlours --

One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster

The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free

You'll find a god in every golden cloister

A little flesh, a little history

I can feel an angel sliding up to me

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble

Not much between despair and ecstasy

One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble

Can't be too careful with your company

I can feel the devil walking next to me

267

LE VENT NOUS PORTERA (Noir Desir)

Em

Je n'ai pas peur de la route

Faudrait voir, faut qu'on écoute

Des méandres au creux des reins D

Et tout ira bien Em

Le vent l'emportera

Ton message à la grande ourse

Et la trajectoire de la course

A l'instantané de velours D

Même s'il ne sert à rien Em

Le vent l'emportera D

Tout disparaîtra Em

Le vent nous portera

La caresse et la mitraille

Cette plaie qui nous tiraille

Le palais des autres jours

D'hier et demain

Le vent les portera

Génetique en bandouillère

Des chromosomes dans l'atmosphère

Des taxis pour les galaxies

Et mon tapis volant lui

Le vent l'emportera

Tout disparaîtra


Ce parfum de nos années mortes

Ceux qui peuvent frapper à ta porte

Infinité de destin

On en pose un, qu'est-ce qu'on en retient?

Le vent l'emportera

Pendant que la marée monte

Et que chacun refait ses comptes

J'emmène au creux de mon ombre

Des poussières de toi

Le vent les portera

Tout disparaîtra

MOONLIGHT SHADOW (Mike Oldfield)

e C

The last that ever she saw him D G D

carried away by a moonlight shadow e C

she passed on worried and warning D G D

carried away by a moonlight shadow G D

lost in a riddle that Saturday night e C D

far away on the other side G D

he was caught in the middle of a desperate fight e C D

and she couldn't find how to push through.

The trees that whisper in the evening

carried away by a moonlight shadow

sing a song of sorrow and grieving


all she saw was the silhouette of a gun

far away on the other side

he was shot six time by a man on the run

and she couldn't find how to push through.

D G C D

I stay, I pray, see you in heaven far away G C D

I stay, I pray, see you in heaven one day.

Four a.m. in the morning


I watch your vision forming


the stars move slowly in a silver night

far away on the other side

would you come to talk to me this night

but she couldn't find how to push through.

I stay, I pray...

Caught in the middle of a hundred and five

the night was heavy and the air was alive

but she couldn't find how to push through.

WISH YOU WERE HERE (Pink Floyd)

C D

So, so you think you can tell Am

Heaven from hell G

Blue skies from pain? D

Can you tell a green field C

From a cold steel rail Am

A smile from a vail? G

Do you think you can tell?

Did they get you to trade

Your heroes for ghosts

Hot ashes for trees

Hot air for a cool breeze

Cold comfort for change?

Did you exchange

A walk on part in a war

For a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here

We're just two lost souls

Swimming in a fish bowl

Year after year

Running over the same old ground

What have we found?

The same old fears

Wish you were here

273

ONLY YOU (Platters)

Only you can make all this world seem right

Only you can make the darkness bright

Only you and you alone can thrill me like you do

And fill my heart with love for only you

Only you can make all this change in me

For it's true you are my destiny

When you hold my hand I understand

The magic that you do

You're my dreams come true

My one and only you

274

LORELEI (Pogues)

C

You told me tales of love and glory F

Same old sad songs, same old story C Am

The sirens sing no lullaby Em G

And no one knows but Lorelei

By castles out of fairy tales

Timbers shiver where once there sailed

The lovesick men who caught her eye

And no one knew but Lorelei

F

River, River, River have mercy G

Take me back to the sea F

For if I perish on these rocks G

My love no more I'll see

I've thought of you in far-off places

And puzzled over lipstick traces

So help me God, I will not cry

And then I think of Lorelei

I travel far and wander wide

No photograph of you beside me

Ol' man River's not so shy

And he remembers Lorelei

River, River...

If I should float upon this stream

And see you in my madman's dream

I'd sink into your troubled eyes

And none would knew 'cept Lorelei

River, River...

But if my ship which sails tomorrow

Should crash against these rocks

My sorrow, I will drown before I die

It's you I'll see not Lorelei

PASSENGER (Iggy Pop)

Am F C G …

I am the passenger and I ride and I ride

I ride through the city’s backsides

I see the stars come out of the sky

Oh yeah, the bright and hollow sky

You know it looks so good tonight

I am the passenger I stay under glass

I look through my window so bright

I see the stars come out tonight

I see the bright and hollow sky

Over the city's a rip in the sky

And everything looks good tonight

Singing la,la,la...

Get into the car, we'll be the passenger

We'll ride through the city at night

And see the city's ripped backsides

We'll see the bright and hollow sky

We'll see the stars that shine so bright

A star is made for us tonight

Singing...

Oh, the passenger, how, how he rides

Oh, the passenger, and he rides, and he rides

He looks through his window

What does he see?

He sees the side of hollow sky

He sees the stars come out tonight

He sees the winding ocean drive

And everything was made for you and me

All of it was made for you and me

Cause it just belongs to you and me

So let's take a ride and see what's mine

ARE YOU LONESOME TONIGHT (E. Presley)

C Em

Are you lonesome tonight Am

Do you miss me tonight C C7 F

Are you sorry we drifted apart

G

Does your memory strain G7

To a bright summer day C

When I kissed you and called you sweetheart

C7

Do the chairs in your parlour F

Seem empty and brave D

Do you gaze at your doorstep G

And picture me there

C Em

Is your heart filled with pain D

Shall I come back again G G7 C G7

Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight

I wonder if you are lonesome tonight

You know someone said that the world is a stage

And you must play a part.

Fate had me playing in love twes my sweet heart.

Act one was when I met you, I loved you at first glance

You read your line so cleverly and never missed a 'q'

Then came act 2, you seemed to change and you acted strange

And why I'll never know.

Honey, you're lying when you said you loved me

And I had no cause to doubt you.

But I'd rather go on hearing your lies

Than go on living without you.

Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there

With emptiness all around

And if you won't come back to me

Then make them bring the curtain down.

Is your heart . . .

277

CAN'T HELP FALING IN LOVE (E. Presley)

Wise men say only fools rush in

But I can't help falling in love with you

Shall I stay, would it be a sin

If I can't help falling in love with you?

Like a river flows surely to the sea

Darling so it goes some things are meant to be

Take my hand, take my whole life too

For I can't help falling in love with you

278

LOVE ME TENDER (E. Presley)

Love me tender, love me sweet

Never let me go

You have made my life complete

And I love you so

Love me tender, love me true

All my dreams fulfill

For my darling I love you

And I always will

Love me tender, love me long

Take me to your heart

For it's there that I belong

And we'll never part

Love me tender, love me dear

Tell me you are mine

I'll be yours through all the years

Till the end of time

When at last my dreams come true

Darling this I know

Happiness will follow you

Everywhere you go

THE GHETTO (E. Presley)

A D A

As the snow flies. Amaj7 Bm E

On a cold and grey Chicago morn' another little baby child is born A D A D A

In the ghetto

And his mother cries ( in the ghetto )

'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need,

It's another little hungry mouth to feed

In the ghetto

E D A

Now people don't you understand The child needs a helping hand D E A

Or he'll grow up to be an angry young man some day E Bm A

Take a look at you and me Are we too blind to see D Amaj7 Bm E

Or do we just turn our heads and look the other way

As the world turns

And a hungry little child with a runny nose

Plays in the streets as the cold wind blows

And his hunger burns

So he starts to roam the streets at night

and he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight

In the ghetto

E Bm A

And then one night in desperation A young man breaks away D Amaj7 Bm E

He buys a gun steals a car tries to run but he don't get far A D A

and his mother cries

Amaj7 Bm

As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man face down in the street E

with a gun in his hand A D A

as her young man dies Amaj7 Bm E

on a cold and grey Chicago morn' another little baby child is born A D A

In the ghetto

And his mama cries

HASTA SIEMPRE COMANDANTE (Carlos Puebla)

F#m E D C#

F#m Bm D C#

Aprendimos a quererte

Desde la histórica altura

Donde el sol de tu bravura

Le puso cerco a la muerte.

Aquí se queda la clara

La entrañable transparencia

De tu querida presencia

Comandante Che Guevara

Tu mano gloriosa y fuerte

Sobre la historia dispara

Cuando todo Santa Clara

Se dispierta para verte.


Vienes quemando la brisa

Con soles de primavera

Para plantar la bandera

Con la luz de tu sonrisa.


Tu amor revolucionario

Te conduce a nueva empresa

Donde esperan la firmeza

De tu brazo libertario.


Seguiremos adelante

Como junto a ti seguimos

Y con Fidel te decimos:

“¡Hasta Siempre Comandante!”

NEW YORK TELEPHONE CONVERSATION (Lou Reed)

I was sleeping, gently napping, when I heard the phone a G C G F G C G C

Who is on the other end talking, am I even home

Did you see what she did to him, did you hear what they said

Just a New York conversation, rattling in my head

Oh, my, and what shall we wear

Oh, my, and who really cares

Just a New York conversation, gossip all of the time

Did you hear who did what to whom, happens all the time

Who has touched and who has dabbled here in the city of shows

Openings, closings, bad repartee, everybody knows

Oh, how sad, why do we call

Oh, I'm glad to hear from you all

I am calling, yes I'm calling just to speak to you

For I know this night will kill me, if I can't be with you

If I can't be with you

WALK ON THE WILD SIDE (Lou Reed)

Holly came from Miami, F-L-A C F6

Hitchhiked her way across the U-S-A C D

Plucked her eyebrows on the way F

Shaved her legs D

Then he was a she

C F6

She says hey babe, take a walk on the wild side, C F6

She say hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

Candy came from out on the island

In the back room she was everybody's darlin'

But she never lost her head

Even when she was givin' head

She says hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

She says hey honey, take a walk on the wild side

And the colored girls sing

Doot, doo doot, doo doot, doo doot doo doot


(etc)

Little Joe never once gave it away

Everybody had to pay and pay

A hustle here and a hustle there

New york city's the place where

They said hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

They said hey joe, take a walk on the wild side

Sugar plum fairies came and hit the streets

Lookin' for soul food and a place to eat

Went to the apollo

You should have seen him go go go

They said hey sugar, take a walk on the wild side

They said hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

Jackie is just speedin' away

Thought she was james dean for a day

Then i guess she had to crash

Valium would've helped that bash

She said hey babe, take a walk on the wild side

She said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side

And the colored girls sing

The ocean is the river's goal, the need to leave the water knows

We're closer now, but light years to go

I have got to find the river, Bergamot and bed of rose

Run through my head and far away

Leave the road and memorize this life that passed before my eyes

and nothing is going my way

There's no one left to take the lead, but I'll tell you and you can see

We're closer now and light years to go

Pick up here and chase the ride, river empties to the tide

Fall into the ocean

River to the ocean goes a fortune for the undertow

None of this is going my way

There is nothing left to grow but ginger, mint, and indigo

Coriander stem and rows of hay

Strength and courage overrides, these privileged and weary eye

River poets search naivete

Pick up here and chase the ride, the river empties to the tide

All of this is coming your way

AS TEARS GO BY (Rolling Stones)

D e G A

It is the evening of the day D e G A

I sit and watch the children play G A

Smiling faces I can see D e

But not for me G A

I sit and watch as tears go by

My riches can't buy everything

I want to hear the children sing

All I hear is the sound

Of rain falling on the ground


It is the evening of the day

I sit and watch the children play

Doing things I used to do

Then think of you

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday G C

Who could hang a name on you C G Bb F

When you change with every new day G C

Still I'm gonna miss you

Don't question why she needs to be so free

She'll tell you it's the only way to be

She just can't be chained to a life where

Nothing's gained and nothing's lost at such a cost

Goodbye,...

There's no time to loose I heard her say

She'll catch your dreams before they slip away

Dying all the time, loose your dreams and you

will loose your mind. Ain't life unkind?

No sweeping exits or off-stage lines

Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

Wild horses couldn't drag me away

Wild wild horses couldn't drag me away

I know I've dreamed you a sin and a lie

I have my freedom but I don't have much time

Faith has been broken, tears must be cried

Let's do some living, after we'll die

Wild horses couldn't drag me away

Wild wild horses we'll ride them some day.

THOSE WERE THE DAYS (Gene Raskin)

Dm

Once upon a time there was a tavern, Gm

where we used to raise a glass or two. Dm

Remember how we laughed away the hours, B7 A

and dreamed of all the great things we would do.

A Dm

Those were the days, my friend, Gm

We thought they'd never end, C C7 F

We'd sing and dance for ever and a day; Gm

We'd live the life we choose, Dm

We’d fight and never loose, A Dm

For we were young, and sure to have our way.

La la la...

Those were the days, oh yes those were the days.

When the busy years went rushing by us

We lost our starry notions on the way

If by chance I'd see you in the tavern

We'd smiled at one another and we'd say

Those were the days, my friend,...

Just tonight I stood before the tavern

Nothing seemed the way it used to be

In the glass I saw a strange reflection

Was that lonely woman really me?

Those were the days, my friend,...

Through the door there came familiar laughter

I saw your face and heard you call my name

Oh, my friend, we're older but no wiser

For in our hearts the dreams are still the same

C'est beaucoup moins inquiétant

De parler du mauvais temps Em

En chantant A7

Et c'est tell'ment plus mignon F#

De se faire traiter de con Bm

En chanson G D

La vie c'est bien plus marrant A D

C'est moins désespérant en chantant

La première fille de ma vie

Dans la rue je l'ai suivie

En chantant

Quand elle s'est déshabillée

J'ai joué le vieil habitué

En chantant

J'étais si content de moi

Que j'ai fais l'amour dix fois

Mais je n'peux pas m'expliquer

Qu'au matin elle m'ait quitté

Enchantée

L'amour c'est plus marrant

C'est moins désespérant

A la pêvhe ou à la guerre

La victoire se gagne aussi

Quelles que soient nos opinions

On fait sa révolution

Le monde est plus marrant

Puisqu'il faut mourir enfin

Que ce soit coté jardin

Si ma femme a de la peine

Que mes enfants la soutiennent

Quand j'irai revoir mon père

Qui m'attend les bras ouverts

En chantant

J'aimerai que sur la terre

Tous mes bons copains m'enterrent

WHERE DO YOU GO TO MY LOVELY (Peter Sarstedt)

C, Em, F, G …

You talk like Marlene Dietrich

And you dance like Zizi Jeanmaire

Your clothes are all made by Balmain

And there’s diamonds and pearls in your hair

You live in a fancy appartement

Of the Boulevard of St. Michel

Where you keep your Rolling Stones records

And a friend of Sacha Distel

But where do you go to my lovely

When you're alone in your bed

Tell me the thoughts that surrond you

I want to look inside your head

I've seen all your qualifications

You got from the Sorbonne

And the painting you stole from Picasso

Your loveliness goes on and on, yes it does

When you go on your summer vacation

You go to Juan-les-Pines

With your carefully designed topless swimsuit

You get an even suntan,

on your back and on your legs

When the snow falls you're found in St. Moritz

With the others of the jet-set

And you sip your Napoleon Brandy

But you never get your lips wet

But where do you go to my lovely



I want to look inside your head, yes I do

Your name is heard in high places

You know the Aga Khan

He sent you a racehorse for chistmas

And you keep it just for fun, for a laugh haha

They say that when you get married

It'll be to a millionaire

But they don't realize where you came from

And I wonder if they really care,

they give a damn

Where do you go to my lovely



I want to look inside your head

I remember the back streets of Naples

Two children begging in rags

Both touched with a burning ambition

To shake off their lowly brown tags

So look into my face Marie-Claire

And remember just who you are

Then go and forget me forever

Cause I know you still bear the scar, deep

inside, yes you do

I know where you go to my lovely


I know the thoughts that surrond you

Cause I can look inside your head

WIND OF CHANGE (Scorpions)

C Dm

I follow the Moskva C

Down to Gorky Park Dm Am7 G

Listening to the wind of change C Dm

An August summer night C

Soldiers passing by Dm Am7 G

Listening to the wind of change

The world is closing in

Did you ever think

That we could be so close, like brothers

The future's in the air

I can feel it everywhere

Blowing with the wind of change

C G Dm G C G

Take me to the magic of the moment on a glory night Dm G Am G

Where the children of tomorrow dream away in the wind of change

Walking down the street

Distant memories

Are buried in the past forever

I follow the Moskva

Down to Gorky Park

Listening to the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment on a glory night

Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams with you and me


Where the children of tomorrow dream away in the wind of change Am G

The wind of change blows straight Am

Into the face of time G

Like a stormwind that will ring C

The freedom bell for peace of mind Dm

Let your balalaika sing E

What my guitar wants to say


Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams with you and me


Where the children of tomorrow dream away In the wind of change

Gone to flowers everyone.

HELLO (Shakespeare Sisters)

G A

Woke up this morning and the streets were full of cars, C G

all bright and shiny like they'd just arrived from mars, A

and as I stumbled through last night drunken to be, C G

the paperboy screamed out the headlines in the street, Dm C

another war, and now the pound is looking weak, Bb A

and tell me, have you read about the latest freak ? Dm C

we're bingo numbers and our names are obsolete, Bb A

why do I feel bitter, when I should feel so sweet ?

D Bm F#m A

Hello , hello, turn your radio on, D Bm F#m A

is there anybody out there, help me sing this song, G F#m

la la la love is a strange thing; G A D

just when you think you've learned how to use it it's gone.

Woke up this morning and my head was in a dace,

a brave new world had downed upon the human race,

but words are meaningless and everything's so real,

gonna have to reach my friends to find out how I feel.

And if I taste the honey - is it really sweet ?

And do I eat it with my hands or with my feet ?

Does anybody really listen when I speak ?

Or will I have to say it all again next week ?

Laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces Bbmaj7 C C/B Am C/G

She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy F Fmaj7 C C/B Am C/G Am6 Fmaj7

I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera

Toss me a cigarette I think there's one in my raincoat

We smoked the last one an hour ago

So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine

And the moon rose over an open field

Cathy I'm lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping

I'm empty and aching and I don't know why

Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike

They've all come to look for America



Do do do do-da-do, do do do do-da-do (repeat and fade)

BOOKENDS (Simon & Garfunkel)

Stroll around the grounds until you feel at home

Put it in your pantry with your cupcakes

It's a little secret just the Robinsons' afair

Most of all you've got to hide it from the kids

Koo koo ka choo Mrs. Robinson...

Sitting on a sofa on a Sunday afternoon

Going to the candidates debate

Laugh about it shout about it when you've got to choose

Any way you look at it you lose

A nation turns its lonely eyes to you, woo woo woo

What's that you say Mrs. Robinson

OLD FRIENDS (Simon & Garfunkel)

Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Famj7 Cmaj7 Dm7 G7 C Am

Old Friends. Old Friends. Sat on their park bench like bookends. Dm7 G Am

A newspaper blown through the grass falls on the round toes of the Cmaj F C6

high shoes of the Old Friends.

Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Dm7 G7 Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7

Old Friends. Winter companions the old men. Lost in their G7 C Am Dm7 G7 Em7

overcoats waiting for the sunset. The sounds of the city, sifting Am G F C6

through trees, settle like dust on the shoulder of the Old Friends.

Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 F Fm C

Can you imagine us years from today, sharing a park bench quietly? Dm7 Am

How terribly strange to be seventy.

Fmaj7 Cmaj7 Dm7 G7 Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7 G7

Old Friends. Memory brushes the same years. Silently sharing the C6 Am

same fears.

SCARBOROUGH FAIR (Simon & Garfunkel)

Am G Am

Are you going to Scarborough Fair C Am C D Am

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme C Bm Am G

Remember me to one who lives there Am G Am

She was once a true love of mine

Tell her to make me a cambric shirt

(On the side of a hill in the deep forest green)

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme

(Tracing of sparrow on snowcrested brown)

Without no seams nor needle work

(Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain)

Then she'll be a true love of mine

(Sleeps unaware of the clarion call)

Tell her to find me an acre of land

(On the side of a hill a sprinkling of leaves)


(Washes the grave with silvery tears)

Between the salt water and the sea strands

(A soldier cleans and polishes a gun)


Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather

(War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions)


(Generals order their soldiers to kill)

And gather it all in a bunch of heather

(And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten)


Are you going to Scarborough Fair


Remember me to one who lives there

She was once a true love of mine

309

SOUND OF SILENCE (Simon & Garfunkel)

Am G

Hello darkness, my old friend Am

I've come to talk to you again C F C

Because a vision softly creeping F C

Left its seeds while I was sleeping F C Am

And the vision that was planted in my brain still remains C G Am

Within the sound of silence

In restless dreams I walked alone

Narrow streets of cobble stone

'Neath the halo of a street lamp

I turned my collar to the cold and damp

When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of the neon light

That split the night

And touched the sound of silence

And in the naked light I saw

Ten thousand people maybe more

People talking without speaking

People hearing without listening

People writing songs that voices never share and no one dare

Disturb the sound of silence

"Fools!" said I, "You do not know

silence like a cancer grows,

hear my words that I might teach you

take my arms that I might reach you."

But my words like silent raindrops fell

And echoed in the walls of silence

And the people bowed and prayed

To the neon God they made

And the sign flashed out its warning

In the words that it was forming

And the signs said, "The words of the prophets

Are written on the subway walls and tenement halls

And whispered in the sounds of silence

310

THE BOXER (Simon & Garfunkel)

C

I am just a poor boy. a

Though my story's seldom told, G

I have squandered my resistance G7

For a pocketful of mumbles, C

Such are promises a

All lies and jest G F

Still, a man hears what he wants to hear C G C

And disregards the rest.

When I left my home and my family,

I was no more than a boy

In the company of strangers

In the quiet of the railway station,

Running scared,

Laying low,

Seeking out the poorer quarters

Where the ragged people go,

Looking for the places

Only they would know.

a e a G

Lie-la-lie...

Asking only workman's wages

I come looking for a job,

But I get no offers,

Just a come-on from the whores

On seventh avenue

I do declare,

There were times when I was so lonesome

I took some comfort there.

Lie-la-lie...

Then I'm laying out my winter clothes

And wishing I was gone, going home

Where the New York City winters

Aren't bleeding me,

Leading me, going home.

In the clearing stands a boxer,

And a fighter by his trade

And he carries the reminders

Of ev'ry glove that laid him down

And cut him till he cried out

In his anger and his shame,

"I am leaving, I am leaving."

But the fighter still remains

Lie-la-lie...

WEDNESDAY MORNING 3AM (Simon & Garfunkel)

C Am F Em

I can hear the soft breathing of the girl that I love,

C Dm G

As she lies here beside me asleep with the night

C Am F Em

And her hair in a fine mist that floats on my pillow

C Dm F G C

Reflecting the glow of the winter moonlight

She is soft she is warm but my heart remains heavy,

As I watch as her breasts gently rise, gently fall.

For I know with the first light of dawn I'll be leaving,

And tonight will be all I have left to recall.

Oh what have I done, why have I done it,

I've committed a crime, broken the law.

For twenty five dollars and pieces of silver,

I held up and robbed a hard liquor store.

My life seems unreal, my crime an illusion,

A scene badly written in which I must play.

And I know as I gaze at my young love beside me,

The morning is just a few hours away.

MY WAY (F. Sinatra)

D F#m

And now the end is near, F#m7 B7

And so I face the final curtain, Em Em7

My friend I'll say it clear, A7 D

I'll state my case of which I'm certain. D D7

I've lived a life that's full, G Gm

I travelled each and every highway, D A7

and more, much more than this, Em D

I did it my way.

Regrets I've had a few,

But then again, too few to mention,

I did what I had to do,

And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each chatered course,

Each careful step along the byway,

And more, much more than this,

I did it my way.

D D7

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew, G

When I bit off more than I could chew, Em7 A7

But through it all, where there was doubt, Fm7 Bm

I ate it up, and spat it out, Em7 A7

I faced it all and stood tall D

And did it my way.

I've loved, I've laughed and cried,

I've had my fill, my share of losing,

And now as tears subside

I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that,

I may I say: not in a shy way.

Oh no, oh no, not me,

I did it myway.

What is a man, what has he got?

If not himself, than he has not,

To say the things he trully feels

And not the words of one who kneels.

The record shows, I took the blows,

And did it my way.

now there's a way and I know I have to go away D C G G-C G-C

and I know I have to go

It's not time to make a change, just sit down and take it slowly

You're still young, that's your fault, there's so much you have to go through

Find a girl, settle down, if you want to you can marry

Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy

All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside

It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it.

If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know, not me

Now there's a way, and I know that I have to go away.

I know I have to go.

FIRST CUT IS THE DEEPEST (Cat Stevens)

G C G F G …

I would have given you all of my heart

But theres someone who has torn it apart

And shes taken just all that I have

But if you want I'll try and love again

Babe I'll try to love again but I know

The first cut is the deepest cuzz baby I know

The first cut is the deepest

When it comes to being lucky she's cursed

When it comes to loving me she’s worse

Yes I want you by my side

Just to help me dry the tears that I cry

And I'm sure going to give you a try

Cuzz if you want I'll try to love again

Baby I'll try to love again but I know

The first cut is the deepest cuzz baby I know

The first cut is the deepest

When it comes to being lucky she's cursed

When it comes to loving me she’s worse

Yes I want you by my side

Just to help me dry the tears that I cry

And I'm sure going to give you a try

Cuzz if you want I'll try to love again

Baby I'll try to love again but I know

LADY D'ARBANVILLE (Cat Stevens)

Em D

My Lady D'Arbanville

Why do you sleep so still? Em D

I'll wake you tomorrow Bm Em

And you will be my fill, yes you will be my fill


Why does it grieve me so?

But your heart seems so silent

Why do you breathe so low, why do you breathe so low?


Why do you sleep so still

I'll wake you tomorrow


My Lady D'Arbanville,

You look so cold tonight,

Your lips feel like winter,

Your skin has turned to white, your skin has turned to white


Why do you sleep so still?

I'll wake you tomorrow


La la la la la la...


Why do you grieve me so?

But your heart seems so silent,

Why do you breathe so low, why do you breathe so low?

I loved you my lady

Though in your grave you lie,

I'll always be with you

This rose will never die, this rose will never die

SAD LISA (Cat Stevens)

Em D C

She hangs her head and cries in my shirt, D Em D G

she must be hurt very badly. D Em A

Tell me what's making you sadly ? Em A D C

Open your door, don't hide in the dark, D Em D G

you've lost in the dark, you can trust me D Em A

'cause you know that's how it must be. Em A H (H7) Em D Em

Lisa, Lisa, sad Lisa, Lisa.

Her eyes like windows tricklin' rain,

upon her pain getting deeper.

Tho' my love wants to relieve her.

She walks alone from wall to wall,

lost in a hall, she can't hear me,

tho' I know she likes to be near me.


She sits in a corner by the door.

There must be more I can tell her,

if she really wants me to help her,

I'll do what I can to show her the way.

And maybe I will free her,

tho' I know no one can see her.

We are sailing stormy waters

To be near you, to be free

Oh lord, to be near you, to be free

Oh lord, to be near you, to be free

If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one

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

That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could

For all those born beneath an angry star

Lest we forget how fragile we are

On and on the rain will fall

Like tears from a star

On and on the rain will say

How fragile we are

On and on the rain will fall

Like tears from a star

On and on the rain will say

How fragile we are

MAD ABOUT YOU (Sting)

Am m/C

A stone's throw from Jerusalem Fmaj7 Eaug

I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight

And though a million stars were shining

My heart was lost on a distant planet

That whirls around the April moon

Whirling in an arc of sadness Am Am/C E Eaug

I'm lost without you I'm lost without you

Fmaj7 Dm7

Though all my kingdoms turn to sand Adim7 E

And fall into the sea Am Am/C E Eaug

I'm mad about you I'm mad about you

And from the dark secluded valleys

I heard the ancient songs of sadness

But every step I thought of you

Every footstep only you

And every star a grain of sand

The leavings of a dried up ocean

Tell me, how much longer? How much longer?

They say a city in the desert lies

The vanity of an ancient king

But the city lies in broken pieces

Where the wind howls and the vultures sing

These are the works of man

This is the sum of our ambition

It would make a prison of my life

If you became another's wife

With every prison blown to dust

My enemies walk free


Cadd9 E7aug

And I have never in my life Asus4

Felt more alone than I do now A# F

Although I claim dominions over all I see C/E

It means nothing to me Dm7

There are no victories Adim7 E E7

In all our histories, without love

A stone's throw from Jerusalem

I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight

And though a million stars were shining

My heart was lost on a distant planet

That whirls around the April moon

Whirling in an arc of sadness

I'm lost without you I'm lost without you

And though you hold the keys to ruin

Of everything I see

With every prison blown to dust,

My enemies walk free

Though all my kingdoms turn to sand

And fall into the sea

HEAVEN (Talking Heads)

They play it once again, they play it all night long

Bm Am C G

Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens Bm Am C G

Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens

There is a party, everyone is there

Everyone will leave at exactly the same time

It's hard to imagine that nothing at all

Could be so exciting, could be so much fun



When this kiss is over it will start again

It will not be any different, it will be exactly the same

It's hard to imagine that nothing at all

could be so exciting, could be so much fun

ROAD TO NOWHERE (Talking Heads)

Well we know where we're going

But we don't know where we've been

And we know what we're knowing

But we can't say what we've seen

And we're not little children

And we know what we want

And the future is certain

Give us time to work it out

---

We're on a road to nowhere, come on inside

Taking that ride to nowhere

We'll take that ride

I'm feeling OK this morning and you know

We're on the road to paradise

Here we go, here we go

We're on a ride to nowhere, come on inside

Taking that ride to nowhere

We'll take that ride

Maybe you wander who you are, I don't care

Here is where time is on our side

Take you there...take you there

We're on the road to nowhere (3x)

There's a city in my mind

Come along and take that ride

And it's all right, baby, it's all right

And it's very far away

But it's growing day by day


Would you like to come along

Would you like to sing that song


They can tell you what to do

But they'll make a fool of you


We're on the road to nowhere...

NELLIE THE ELEPHANT (Toy Dolls)

To Bombay

A travelling circus came

They brought an intelligent elephant

And Nellie was her name

One dark night

She slipped her iron chain

And off she ran to Hindustan

And was never seen again

Whoa…

Nellie the elephant

Packed her trunk

And said goodbye to the circus

Off she ran

With a tropply trop, trop trop trop

Now Nellie the elephant

Packer her trunk

And trumbled off to the jungle

Off she ran

With a tropply trop, trop trop trop

Night by night

She danced to the circus band

When Nellie led the big parade

She looked so proud and grand

No more tricks

For Nellie to perform

They taught her how to take a bow

And she took the crowd by storm

Nellie the elephant…

And everyone heard the story

Far far away

And then one night in silver light

They're off to Mandolay

Nellie the elephant…

BELLA CIAO (trad.)

Una mattina mi son svegliato,

O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao

Una mattina mi son svegliato,

E ho trovato l'invasor.

O partigiano portami via,


O partigiano portami via,

Perche mi sento di morir.

E se io muoio da partigiano,


E se io muoio da partigiano,

Tu mi devi sepelir.

Me sepelirai la su in montagna,


Me sepelirai la su in montagna,

Sotto l'ombra di un bel fior.

E tutti quelli che passeranno,


E tutti quelli che passeranno,

Dirano o ma che bel fior.

THE FOGGY DEW (trad.)

Am G Am G Am

As down the glen one Easter morn, to a city fair rode I Am G Am G Am

There armed lines of marching men in squadrons passed me by C G Am

No pipes did hum, no battle drum, did sound its loud tattoo Am G Am G Am

But the Angelus bell o'er the Liffey swell, rang out in the foggy dew

Right proudly high in Dublin town, they flung out the flag of war

'Twas better to die 'neath an Irish sky than at Suvla or Sud El Bar

And from the plains of Royal Meath strong men came hurrying through

While Britannia's huns with their great big guns sailed in through the foggy dew

O, the night fell black and the rifles' crack made 'Perfidious Abion' reel

'Mid the leaden rail, seven tongues of flame did shine o'er the lines of steel

By each shining blade a prayer was said that to Ireland her sons be true

And when morning broke still the war flag shook out its fold in the foggy dew

'Twas England bade our Wild Geese go that small Nations might be free

But their lonely graves are by Suvla's waves or the fringe of the great North Sea

O, had they died by Pearse's side, or had fought with Cathal Brugha

Their names we'd keep where the Fenians sleep, 'neath the shroud of the foggy dew

But the bravest fell and the requiem bell rang mournfully and clear

For those who died that watertide in the springtime of the year

While the world did gaze with deep amazeat those fearless men, but few

Who bore the fight that Freedom's light might shine through the foggy dew

Ah, back through the glen I rode again and my heart with grief was sore

For I parted then with valiant men whom I never shall see more

But to and fro in my dreams I go and I'd kneel and pray for you

For slavery fled, O glorious dead, when you fell in the foggy dew

332

GREENSLEEVES (trad.)

Alas my love you do me wrong

To cast me off discourteously;

And I have loved you oh so long

Delighting in your company.

Greensleeves was my delight,

Greensleeves my heart of gold

Greensleeves was my heart of joy

And who but my Lady Greensleeves.

I have been ready at your hand

To grant whatever thou would'st crave;

I have waged both life and land

Your love and goodwill for to have.


Greensleeves was my heart of gold



Thy petticoat of sendle white

With gold embroidered gorgeously;

Thy petticoat of silk and white

And these I bought thee gladly.


Greensleeves my heart of gold

JOHNNY I HARDLY KNEW YE (trad.)

A stick in me hand and a drop in me eye, Am G F E

A doleful damsel I heard cry, Am G Am

Johnny I hardly knew ye.

With your drums and guns and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo

With your drums and guns and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo

With your drums and guns and drums and guns,

The enemy nearly slew ye

Oh my darling dear, Ye look so queer

Johnny I hardly knew ye.

Where are your eyes that were so mild, hurroo, hurroo

Where are your eyes that were so mild, hurroo, hurroo

Where are your eyes that were so mild,

When my heart you so beguiled

Why did ye run from me and the child

Oh Johnny, I hardly knew ye

Where are your legs that used to run, hurroo, hurroo

Where are your legs that used to run, hurroo, hurroo

Where are your legs that used to run,

When you went for to carry a gun

Indeed your dancing days are done

Oh Johnny, I hardly knew ye

I'm happy for to see ye home, hurroo, hurroo

I'm happy for to see ye home, hurroo, hurroo

I'm happy for to see ye home,

All from the island of Sulloon;

So low in flesh, so high in bone

Oh Johnny I hardly knew ye

Ye haven't an arm, ye haven't a leg, hurroo, hurroo

Ye haven't an arm, ye haven't a leg, hurroo, hurroo

Ye haven't an arm, ye haven't a leg,

Ye're an armless, boneless, chickenless egg

Ye'll have to put with a bowl out to beg

Oh Johnny I hardly knew ye

You're so… You've been waiting in the sun too long

But if you sing, sing G

Sing, sing, sing, sing G D Am

For the love you bring won't mean a thing G

Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

Colder, crying on your shoulder

Hold her, and tell her everything’s gonna be fine

Surely, you've been going too early

Hurry, cause no one's gonna be stopped

But if you sing, sing

Sing, sing, sing, sing

For the love you bring won't mean a thing

Unless you sing, sing, sing, sing

Baby, there's something going on today

But I say nothing, nothing, nothing

Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing

DESIRE (U2)

F C G C G F C G C G …

Lover I'm off the streets

Gonna go where the bright lights and the big city meet

With a red guitar on fire

Desire

She's a candle burning in my room

I'm like a needle, needle and spoon

Over the counter with a shotgun

Pretty soon everybody got one

And the fever when I'm beside her

Desire

(Burning, burning)

She's the dollars

She's my protection

Yeah, she's the promise

In the year of election

Sister, I can't let you go

I'm like a preacher stealing hearts on a travelling show

For love or money, money, money,...?

Desire...

337

I STILL HAVEN'T FIND WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR (U2)

D

I have climbed highest mountains

I have run through the fields G

Only to be with you D

Only to be with you

I have run I have crawled

I have scaled these city walls

Only to be with you

A G D

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips

Felt the healing in her fingertips

It burned like fire

This burning desire

I have spoke with the tongue of angels

I have held the hand of the devil

It was worm in the night

I was cold as a stone

But I still...

I believe in the Kingdom Come

Then all the colors will bleed into one

But yes, I'm still running

You broke the bonds

You loosed the chains

You carried the cross

And my shame, and my shame

You know I believe it

But I still...

338

IN GOD'S COUNTRY (U2)

Desert Sky

Dream beneath a desert sky

The rivers run

But soon run dry

We need new dreams tonight

Desert rose

Dreamed I saw a desert rose

Dress torn in ribbons

And in bows

Like a siren she calls (to me)

Sleep comes like a drug...In God's Country

Sad eyes crooked crosses...In God's Country

Set me alight

We'll punch a hole right through the night

Everyday the dreamers die

To see what's on the other side

She is Liberty

And she comes to rescue me

Hope faith, her vanity

The greatest gift is gold

Sleep comes like a drug...In God's Country

Sad eyes crooked crosses...In God's Country

Naked flame

She stands with a naked flame

I stand with the sons of Cain

Burned by the fire of love

Burned by the fire of love

339

SUNDAY, BLOODY SUNDAY (U2)

I can't believe the news today,

I can't close my eyes and make it go away.

How long, how long must we sing this song?

How long? Tonight we can be as one.

Broken bottles under children's feet,

Bodies strewn across a dead end street,

But I won't heed the battle call,

It puts my back up, my back up against the wall.

Sunday, bloody Sunday.


And the battle's just begun,

There's many lost, but tell me who has won?

The trenches dug within our hearts,

And mother's children, brothers, sisters torn apart.



How long, how long must we sing this song?

How long? Tonight we can be as one.

Tonight, tonight.



Wipe the tears from your eyes,

Wipe your tears away,

Wipe your bloodshot eyes.



And it's true we are immune,

When fact is fiction and T.V. is reality,

And today the millions cry,

We eat and drink while tomorrow they die.

The real battle just begun.

To claim the victory Jesus won,

On a Sunday, bloody Sunday,

It's a bitter pill I swallow here

To be rent from one so dear

We fought for justice and not for gain

But the magistrate set me away

Now the kings will rule and the poor will toil

And tear their hands as they tear the soil

But a day will come in this dawning age

When an honest man sees an honest wage

Hold me now,oh hold me now

Till this hour has gone around

And I'm gone on the rising tide

For to face Van Diemen's land

Still the gunman rules and the widows pay

A scarlet coat now a black beret

They thought that blood and sacrifice

Could out of death bring fourth a life

WHERE THE STREETS HAVE NO NAME (U2)

D

I want to run, I want to hide G

I want to tear down the walls that hold me inside Bm7 Asus4

I want to reach out and touch the flame Cm9

Where the streets have no name

I want to feel sunlight on my face

I see the dust cloud disappear without a trace

I want to take shelter from the poison rain




We're still building then burning down love

Burning down love

And when I go there I go there with you

It's all I can do

The city's a flood and our love turns to rust

We're beaten and blown by the wind trampled in dust

I'll show you a place high on a desert plain


Where the streets have no name...

342

WITH OR WITHOUT YOU (U2)

C G Am

See the stone set in your eyes F C

See the thorn twist in your side G Am F C

I wait for you

Sleight of hand and twist of fate

On a bed of nails she makes me wait

And I wait without you

With or without you, with or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore

You give it all but I want more

And I'm waiting for you

With or without you, with or without you

I can't live with or without you

And you give yourself away


And you give, and you give


My hands are tied my body bruised

She's got me with nothing to win

And nothing left to loose

With or without you, with or without you...

343

LADY IN BLACK (Uriah Heep)

Em

She came to me one morning

One lonely Sunday morning D

Her long hair flowing Em

In the midwinter wind

I know not how she found me

For in darkness I was walking

And destruction layed around me

From a fight I could not win

She asked me name my foe then

I said the need within some men

To fight and kill their brothers

Without thought of love or God

And I begged her give me horses

To trample down my enemy

So eager was my passion

To be your this way of life

But she would not think of battle

That reduces men to animals

So easy to begin

And yet impossible to end

For she, the mother of all men

Did council me so wisely than

I feared to walk alone again

And asked if she would stay

Oh lady land your hand I cried

Or let me rest here at your side

Have faith and trust in me she said

And filled my heart with life

There is no strength in numbers

Have no such disconseption

But when you need me be assured

I won't be far away

Thus having spoke she turned away

And though I found no words to say

I stood and watched until I saw

Her black cloak disappear

My labour is no easier

But now I know I'm not alone

I find new heart each time

I think upon that windy day

And if one day she comes to you

Drink deeply from her words so wise

Take courage from her as your prize

And say hello for me

344

LA BAMBA (Ritchie Valens)

Para bailar la bamba

Para bailar la bamba

Se necesita una poca de gracia

Una poca de gracia pa mi y pa ti

Ahi arriba ahi arriba

Por ti sere por ti sere por ti sere

Yo no soy marinero

Yo no soy marinero

Soy capitan soy capitan soy capitan

Bamba, bamba...

Never coming down,

I'm never coming down

LE DÉSERTEUR (Boris Vian)

Monsieur le président

Je vous fais une lettre

Que vous lirez peut-ętre

Si vous avez le temps

Je viens de recevoir

Mes papiers militaires

Pour partir á la guerre

Avant mercredi soir


Je ne veux pas la faire

Je ne suis pas sur terre

Pour tuer des pauvres gens

C'est pas pour vous fâcher

Il faut que je vous dise

Ma décision est prise

Je m'en vais déserter

Depuis que je suis né

J'ai vu mourir mon pêre

J'ai vu partir mes frêres

Et pleurer mes enfants

Ma mêre a tant souffert

Elle est dedans sa tombe

Et se moque des bombes

Et se moque des vers

Quand j'étais prisonnier

On m'a volé ma femme

On m'a volé mon âme

Et tout mon cher passé

Demain de bon matin

Je fermerai ma porte

Au nez des années mortes

J'irai sur les chemins

Je mendierai ma vie

Sur les routes de France

De Bretagne en Provence

Et je dirai aux gens:

“Refusez d'obéir

Refusez de la faire

N'allez pas á la guerre

Refusez de partir “

S'il faut donner son sang

Allez donner le vôtre

Vous ętes bon apôtre


Si vous me poursuivez

Prévenez vos gendarmes

Que je n'aurai pas d'armes

Et qu'ils pourront tirer

COLD COLD GROUND (Tom Waits)

Crest fallen sidekick in an old café

never slept with a dream before he had to

go away

there's a bell in the tower

Uncle Ray bought a round

don't worry bout the army

in the cold cold ground

cold cold ground

Now don't be a cry baby

when there's wood in the shed

there's a bird in the chimney

and a stone in my bed

when the road's washed out

they pass the bottle around

and wait in the arms

of the cold cold ground

cold cold ground

There's a ribbon in the willow

and a tire swing rope

and a briar patch of berries

taking over the slope

the cat'll sleep in the mailbox

and we'll never go to town

till we bury every dream


cold cold ground

Gimme a Winchester rifle and a whole box

of shells

blow the roof off the goat barn

let it roll down the hill

the piano is firewood

times square is a dream

I find we'll lay down together


cold cold ground

Call the cops on the Breedloves

brig a bible and a rope

and a whole box of rebel

and a bar of soap

make a pile of trunk tires

and burn'em all down

bring a dollar with you baby


cold cold ground

Take a weathervane rooster

throw rocks at his head

stop talking to the neighbours

till we all go dead

beware of my temper

and a dog that I've found

break all the windows


cold cold ground

349

I HOPE THAT I DON'T FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU (Tom Waits)

C F G

I hope that I don't fall in love with you C F G

Cause falling in love just makes me blue F C F C

Well the music plays and you display your heart for me to see F C F G

I had a beer and now I hear you calling out to me C F G

And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.

Now the room is crowded, people everywhere

And I wonder should I offer you a chair

Well if you sit down with this old clown,

he'll take that frown and break it

Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it

And I hope that I don't fall in love with you

Now the night does funny things inside a man

These old tomcat feelings you don't understand

I turn around and look at you, you light a cigarette

Wish I had the guts to bum one, but we've never met

And I hope that I don't fall in love with you

And I can see that you are lonesome just like me

And I'm feeling like you'd like some company

Well I turn around to look at you, and you look back at me

The guy you're with is up and split, the chair next to you's free

And I hope that you don't fall in love with me

Now it's closing time, the music's fading out

Last call for drinks I'll have another stout

I turn around and look at you, you're nowhere to be found

I search the place for your lost face, I guess I'll have another round

and I think that I just fell in love with you

350

I'LL BE GONE (Tom Waits)

Tonight I'll shave the mountain

I'll cut the hearts from pharoahs

I pull the road off of the rise

tear the memories from my eyes

and in the morning I'll be gone

I drink a 1000 shipwrecks

tonight I'll steal your paychecks

I paint the sheets across my bed

the birds will all fly from my head


take every dream that's breathing

find every boot that's leaving

shoot all the lights in the café


I bet a 1000 dollars

I have a french companion

I tie myself below the deck

I pull the rope around my neck


It takes a life to win her

there is a drum of bourbon

800 pounds of nitro

his boots are thunder as he plays

there is a stone inside it

tonight his bones will ride it




351

RAIN DOGS (Tom Waits)

e

Inside a broken clock

Splashing the wine F

With all the rain dogs e

Taxi, we'd rather walk

Huddle a doorway F

with the rain dogs B7 e

For I am a rain dog too

H7 e

Oh, how we danced and we swallowed the night H7 e

For it was all ripe for dreaming H7 e

Oh how we danced away all of the light a e F#7 H7

We've always been out of our minds

The rum pours out strong and thin

Beats out the dustmen

with the rain dogs

Aboard a shipwrecked train

give my umbrella

to the rain dogs

for I am a rain dog too

Oh, how we danced with the rose of Tralee

Her long hair black as a raven

Oh, how we danced and you wispered to me

You'll never be going back home

352

YESTERDAY IS HERE (Tom Waits)
