If it | seems like I’ve been lost in let’s remember |
If you think I’m feeling older and missing my younger days
| D |
Oh, then you | should have known me much better |
Cause my past is something that never
| A |
Still I | would not be here now if I never had the hunger |
And I’m not ashamed to say the wild boys were my friends
| D |
Cause I | never felt the desire till their music set me on fire |
| E6 | D |
And then I was | saved, | yeah |
| E6 |
That’s why I’m keeping the | faith |
Only Flagg Brothers had them with the Cuban heel
Iridescent socks with the same color shirt
And a tight pair of chinos
| D |
I | put on my shark skin jacket |
You know the kind with the velvet collar
I took a fresh pack of Luckies and a mint called Sen-Sen
My old man's Trojans and his Old Spice after shave
| D |
Combed my | hair in a pompadour |
Like the rest of the Romeos wore
| E6 | D |
A permanent | wave | yeah |
| E6 |
We were keeping the | faith |
| E | D | A |
You can | get just so | much from a | good thing |
| E | D | A |
You can | linger too | long in your | dreams |
| E | D | A |
Say | goodbye to the | oldies but | goodies |
| Bm7 |
Cause the | good old days weren’t always good |
| E7 |
And | tomorrow ain’t as bad as it seems |
A |
Learned stickball as a formal education |
Lost a lot of fights but it taught me how to lose O.K.
| D |
I | heard about sex but not enough |
| A |
I found you could dance and still look tough any | way |
I found out a man ain’t just being macho
Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food drank a lot of take-home pay
| D |
I | thought I was the Duke of Earl |
When I made it with a red-haired girl
| E6 |
We were keeping the | faith |
| E | D | A |
You can | get just so | much from a | good thing |
| E | D | A |
You can | linger too | long in your | dreams |
| E | D | A |
Say | goodbye to the | oldies but | goodies |
| Bm7 |
Cause the | good old days weren’t always good |
| E7 |
And | tomorrow ain’t as bad as it seems |
| E | D | A |
You can | get just so | much from a | good thing |
| E | D | A |
You can | linger too | long in your | dreams |
| E | D | A |
Say | goodbye to the | oldies but | goodies |
| Bm7 |
Cause the | good old days weren’t always good |
| E7 |
And | tomorrow ain’t as bad as it seems |
| A |
Now I | told you my reasons for the whole revival |
Now I’m going outside to have an
Ice cold beer in the shade
| D |
I’m going to | listen to my 45’s |
Ain’t it wonderful to be alive
When the rock 'n' roll
| E6 | D |
When the memory | stays, | yeah |

F | G | C9 |
Funny, but it’s s | till rock and roll to me | |
| E | D | A |
L | isten boy, I don’t want to see you let a g | ood thing slip a | way |
| E | D | A |
You know I d | on’t like watching anybody make the sa | me mistakes I m | ade |
| G#m | G | F#m |
She’s a | real nice girl and she’s | always there for | you |
| Am | E/G# | F#m | B |
But a n | ice girl wouldn’t | tell you what you should | do | |
| E | D | A |
Oh, l | isten boy, I’m sure that you think you got it a | ll under cont | rol |
| E | D | A |
You don’t w | ant somebody telling you the way to st | ay in someone’s s | oul |
| G#m | G | F#m |
You’re a | big boy now and you’ll n | ever let her | go |
| Am | E/G# | F#m | E | F# |
But t | hat’s just the kind of | thing she ought to k | now | | |
| B | D#m |
T | ell her about it, tell her | everything you feel |
G#m | G#m7 | C#m7 | F#7sus4 |
Give her every | reason to ac | cept that you’re for | real |
| B | D#m |
T | ell her about it, tell her | all your crazy dreams |
G#m | G#m7 | C#m7 | F#7sus4 | F#7 |
Let her know you | need her, let her | know how much she | means | |
| E | D | A |
L | isten, boy, it’s not automatically a ce | rtain guarant | ee |
| E | D | A |
To ins | ure yourself, you’ve got to provide communic | ation constant | ly |
| G#m | G | F#m |
When you | love someone you’re | always insec | ure |
| Am | E/G# | F#m | E | F# |
And there’s | only one good | way to reass | ure | | |
| B | D#m |
T | ell her about it, let her | know how much you care |
G#m | G#m7 | C#m7 | F#7sus4 |
When she can’t be | with you, tell her | you wish you were | there |
| B | D#m |
T | ell her about it every | day before you leave |
G#m | G#m7 | C#m7 | F#7sus4 | F#7 |
Pay her some at | tention, give her | something to be | lieve | |
D | Bm | C |
‘Cause now and t | hen she’ll get to w | orrying |
| D | Em | A | Bm | A/C# |
Ju | st bec | ause you haven’t s | poken for so l | ong | |
| D | Bm | C |
And th | ough you | may not have done | anything |
| D | Em | A | F#/A# | B |
W | ill that | be a consol | ation when she’s | gone? | |
| E | D | A |
L | isten boy, it’s good information from a m | an who’s made mist | akes |
| E | D | A |
Just a wo | rd or two that she gets from you could be the d | ifference that it m | akes |
| G#m | G | F#m |
She’s a | trusting soul, she’s p | ut her trust in | you |
| Am | E/G# | F#m | E | F# |
But a | girl like that won’t | tell you what you should | do | | |
| B | D#m |
T | ell her about it, tell her | everything you feel |
G#m | G#m7 | C#m7 | F#7sus4 |
Give her every | reason to ac | cept that you’re for | real |

T | ell her about it, | tell her how you f | eel right now |

T | ell her about it, the | girl don’t want to | wait too long |

You got to te | ll her about it, | tell her now and you | won’t go wrong |

You got to te | ll her about it, be | fore it gets too | late you’ve got to... |
| G | D | Em |
Well I’m | on the Downe | aster Al | exa |
| G | D | C |
And I’m | cruising through | Block Island | Sound |
| C | G | Am |
I have | charted a | course to the | Vineyard |
| Em | D | C |
But to | night I am | Nantucket | bound |
C | D | G | C |
We took on | diesel back in | Montauk | yesterday |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
And left this | morning from the | bell in Gardiner’s | Bay |
C | D | G | C |
Like all the | locals here I’ve | had to sell my | home |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
Too proud to | leave I worked my | fingers to the | bone |
| G | D | Em |
So I could | own my Downe | aster Ale | xa |
| G | D | C |
And I | go where the | ocean is | deep |
| C | G | Am |
There are | giants out | there in the | canyons |
| G | D | C |
And a | good captain | can’t fall | asleep |
C | D | G | C |
I’ve got | bills to pay and | children who need | clothes |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
I know there’s | fish out there | but where God only | knows |
C | D | G | C |
They say these | waters aren’t | what they used to | be |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
But I’ve got | people back on | land who count on | me |
| G | D | Em |
So if you | see my Downe | aster Al | exa |
| G | D | C |
And if you | work with the | rod and the | reel |
| C | G | Am |
Tell my | wife I am | trolling | Atlantis |
| G | D | C |
And I | still have my | hands on the | wheel |
| G | D | Em |
Now I | drive my Downe | aster Al | exa |
| G | D | C |
More and | more miles from | shore every | year |
| C | G | Am |
Since they | tell me I | can’t sell no | stripers |
| G | D | C |
And there’s | no luck in | swordfishing | here |
C | D | G | C |
I was a | bayman like my | father was | before |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
Can’t make a | living as a | bayman | anymore |
C | D | G | C |
There ain’t much | future for a | man who works the | sea |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
But there ain’t no | island left for | islanders like | me |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
If | you | said | good | bye to me ton | ight |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
There | would | still | be | music left to | write |
C# | F#m |
What else could | I do |
E7 | A | A7 |
I’m so insp | ired | by you |
D | Bm | E | A |
That hasn’t | happened for the | longest | time |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
Once | I | thought | my | innocence was | gone |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
Now | I k | now | that | happiness goes | on |
C# | F#m |
That’s where you | found me |
E7 | A | A7 |
When you put your | arms a | round me |
D | Bm | E | A |
I haven’t | been there for the | longest ti | me |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
I’m | that | voice | you’re | hearing in the | hall |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
And | the | great | est | miracle of | all |
E7 | A | A7 |
And how you n | eeded | me too |
D | Bm | E | A |
That has | n’t happened for the | longest | time |
E | E7 | F#m |
Maybe | this won’t | last very long |
| G#7 |
But | you feel so right |
C#m | F#m |
Maybe I’ve been | hoping too hard |
| B7 |
But | I’ve gone this far |
| E | E7 |
And it’s | more than I | hoped for |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
Who | knows | how | much | further we’ll go | on |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
May | be I’ | ll | be s | orry when you’re | gone |
C# | F#m |
I’ll take my | chances |
E7 | A | A7 |
I forgot how n | ice r | omance is |
D | Bm | E | A |
I haven’t | been there for the | longest | time |
E | E7 | F#m |
I had | second | thoughts at the start |
C#m | F#m |
Now I know the | woman that you are |
| B7 |
You’re | wonderful so far |
| E | E7 |
And it’s | more than I | hoped for |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
I | don’t c | are | what | consequence it b | rings |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
I | have b | een | a | fool for lesser t | hings |
E7 | A | A7 |
I think you | ought to | know that |
D | Bm | E | A |
I intend to | hold you for the | longest | time |
A | Bm |
Oh oh oh | oh oh oh oh |
C#m | D | E |
Oh oh oh | oh oh | oh oh |
Bm | C#m |
She’s been living in her | uptown world |
D | E | A |
I bet she | never had a | back street guy |
Bm | C#m |
I bet her mama never | told her why |
Bm | C#m |
She’s been living in her | white bread world |
D | E | A |
As long as | anyone with | hot blood can |
Bm | C#m |
And now she’s looking for a | downtown man |
F | Dm | Gm | C7 |
And when she | knows what she | wants from her | time |
F | Dm | Gm/D# | C7 |
And when she | wakes up and | makes up her | mind |
D | Bm |
She’ll see I’m | not so tough |
Em | E |
Just because | I’m in love with an |
Bm | C#m |
You know I’ve seen her in her | uptown world |
D | E | A |
She’s getting | tired of her | high-class toys |
Bm | C#m |
And all her presents from her | uptown boys |
Bm | C#m |
You know I can’t afford to | buy her pearls |
D | E | A |
But maybe | someday when my | ship comes in |
Bm | C#m |
She’ll understand what kind of | guy I’ve been |
F | Dm | Gm | C7 |
And when she’s | walking, she’s | looking so | fine |
F | Dm | Gm/D# | C7 |
And when she’s | talking, she’ll | say that she’s | mine |
D | Bm |
She’ll say I’m | not so tough |
Em | E |
Just because | I’m in love with an |
Bm | C#m |
She’s been living in her | white bread world |
D | E | A |
As long as | anyone with | hot blood can |
Bm | C#m |
And now she’s looking for a | downtown man |
(Uptown girl, repeat to fade...)

Friday night I crashed your party |
Saturday I said I’m sorry
| E |
Sunday came and trashed me out a | gain |
| E | A |
And we | all enjoyed the weekend for a | change |
| A |
I was | stranded in the combat zone |
I walked through Bedford Sty alone
| E |
Even rode my motorcycle in the | rain |
| Bm |
And you | told me not to drive |
| G |
But I | made it home alive |
| E | A |
So you | said that only proves that I’m in | sane |
| E | A |
You may be | right I may be | crazy |
| E | D | F#m | A |
But it | just may be a | lunatic you’re | looking for | |
| E | A |
Turn out the | lights don’t try to | save me |
| D | E |
You may be | wrong for all I | know |
A |
Remember how I found you there |
Alone in your electric chair
| E |
I told you dirty jokes until you | smiled |
| Bm |
You were | lonely for a man |
| E | A |
‘Cause you | might enjoy some madness for a | while |
| A |
Now | think of all the years you tried to |
Find someone to satisfy you
| E |
I might be as crazy as you | say |
| Bm |
If I’m | crazy then it’s true |
| G |
That it’s | all because of you |
| E | A |
And you | wouldn’t want me any other | way |
| E | A |
You may be | right I may be | crazy |
| E | D | F#m | A |
But it | just may be a | lunatic you’re | looking for | |
| E | A |
Turn out the | lights it’s too late to | change me |
| D | E |
You may be | wrong for all I | know |
| E | A |
You may be | right I may be | crazy |
| E | D | F#m | A |
Hey but it | just may be a | lunatic you’re | looking for | |
| E | A |
Turn out the | lights, aww don’t try to | save me |
| D | E |
You may be | wrong for all I | know |
A |
You may be wrong but you may be right |

I got the call today that I | didn’t wanna hear |
| D |
But I | knew that it would come |
A | E |
Old true friend of ours was | talking on the phone |
| D |
She said you | found someone |
| E |
And I | thought of all the bad luck |
And the struggles we went through
| D |
And how | I lost me and you lost you |
E |
What are these voices outside love’s open door |
| D |
Make us | throw off our contentment |
| E |
And | beg for something more? |
A | Bm7 | A/C# |
But I’m learning to | live without you | now |
| D |
But I | miss you sometimes |
| A/E | F#m |
And the | more I know, the | less I understand |
| D | Esus4 | E |
All the | things I thought I knew I’m | learning aga | in |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But my | will gets weak |
D |
And my thoughts seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 | E | A |
Even if, even if | you don’t | love me any | more |
A | A | Asus2 | A | Asus2 | Asus4 |

| A |
All these | times are so uncertain |
| E |
There’s a | yearning undefined |
| D |
And | people filled with rage |
| A |
We all | need a little tenderness |
E | D |
How can love survive in | such a graceless age? |
| E |
Ah the | trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness |
| D | D |
They’re the | very things we | kill, I guess |
| E |
Our | pride and competition |
Can not fill these empty arms
| D |
And the | work I put between us |
| Esus4 | E |
You know it | doesn’t keep me | warm |
A | Bm7 | A/C# |
I’m learning to | live without you | now |
| A/E | F#m |
And the | more I know, the | less I understand |
| D |
All the | things I thought I’d figured out |
| Esus4 | E |
I | have to learn | again |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But | everything changes |
D |
And my friends seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 | E | A |
Even if, even if, | you don’t | love me any | more |
| G | D/F# |
There are | people in your life, | who’ve come and gone |
| Em | D/F# |
They | let you down, you know they | hurt your pride |
G | D/F# |
You better put it all behind you baby, ‘cause | life goes on |
| E |
You keep | carrying that anger, it will eat you up inside, baby |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But my | will gets weak |
D |
And my thoughts seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 |
Even if, even if | you don’t love me |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
Because the | flesh will get weak |
D |
And the ashes will scatter |
| A/E |
So I’m thinkin’ about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 | A |
Even if, even if | you don’t love me any | more |

Nobody on the road, nobody on the beach |
F |
I feel it in the air, the summer’s out of reach |
G |
Empty lake, empty streets, the sun goes down alone |
F |
I’m driving by your house, though I know you’re not home |
C | G |
But I can see you, | your brown skin shining in the sun |
| F |
You got your hair combed back and your | sunglasses on, baby |
C | G |
I can tell you my | love for you will still be strong |
| F |
After the boys of | summer have gone |
Am |
I never will forget those nights, I wonder if it was a dream |
F |
Remember how you made me crazy, remember how I made you scream |
G |
Now I don’t understand what happened to our love |
F |
But babe I’m gonna get you back |
I’m gonna show you what I’m made of
C | G |
I can see you, | your brown skin shining in the sun |

I see you walking real slow and you’re smi | ling at everyone |
C | G |
I can tell you my | love for you will still be strong |
| F |
After the boys of | summer have gone |
Am |
Out on the road today I saw a Black Flag sticker on a Cadillac |
F |
A little voice inside my head said |
Don’t look back, you could never look back
G |
I thought I knew what love was, what did I know? |
F |
Those days are gone forever I should just let them go, but |
C | G |
I can see you, | your brown skin shining in the sun |
| F |
You got the top pulled down and your ra | dio on, baby |
C | G |
I can tell you my | love for you will still be strong |
| F |
After the boys of | summer have gone |
C | G |
I can see you, | your brown skin shining in the sun |
| F |
You got your hair slicked back and those | wayfarers on, baby |
C | G |
I can tell you my | love for you will still be strong |

Re | minds me of childhood memories |

Was as fresh as the bright blue | sky |
D |
Now and then when I see her face |
| C |
She | takes me away to that special place |

And if I’d | stare too long |

I’d probably break down and | cry |
A | C | D |
Woah, | oh, sweet child o’ | mine |
A | C | D |
Woah, | oh, sweet love of | mine |

As | if they thought of rain |
| G |
I’d | hate to look into those eyes |
| D |
And | see an ounce of pain |
| D |
Her | hair reminds me of a warm safe place |

Where | as a child I’d hide |
| G |
And | pray for the thunder and the rain |
A | C | D |
Woah, | oh, sweet child o’ | mine |

Am7 | F | G | D |
| | | Darkness falls across the land the midnight hour is close at hand |
Creatures crawl in search of blood to terrorize y’all’s neighborhood
And whosoever shall be found without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell and rot inside a corpse's shell
The foulest stench is in the air the funk of forty thousand years
And grizzy ghouls from every tomb are closing in to seal your doom
And though you fight to stay alive your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist the evil of the thriller
G | Em |
The new boy in the | neighborhood |

There’s a | sunny little country south of Mexico |
| F#7 |
Where the | winds are gentle and the waters flow |
| A | Am | E |
But | breezes aren’t the only | things that blow in El | Salvador |
| E |
If you | took the little lady for a moonlight drive |
F#7 |
Odds are still good you’d come back alive |
| A | Am | E | E7 |
But | everyone is innocent unt | il they arrive in El | Salvador | |
| A | B |
If the | rebels take a bus on the | grand highway |
| G#m | C#m |
The | government destroys a village | miles away |
| A |
The | man on the radio says |
B | E | E7 |
Now we’ll play South of the | Border | |
A | B |
And in the morning the | natives say |
G#m | C#m |
We’re happy you have lived a | nother day |
A |
Last night a thousand more |
B | E |
Passed away in El Salva | dor |
| E |
There’s a t | elevision crew here from ABC |
F#7 |
Filming Rio Lempe and the refugees |
A | Am | E |
Calling murdered children the t | ragedy of El S | alvador |
| E |
Be | fore the government camera twenty feet away |
F#7 |
Another man is asking for continued aid |
A | Am | E | E7 |
Food and medicine and h | and grenades for El | Salvador | |
| A | B |
There’s a | thump, a rumble, and the | buildings sway |
G#m | C#m |
A soldier fires the | acid spray |
| A |
The | public address system |
| B | E | E7 |
S | tarts to play South of the | Border | |
A | B |
You run for cover and | hide your eyes |
G#m | C#m |
You hear the screams from | paradise |
A | B |
They’ve fallen further than you | realize |
| E |
Just like | Poland is protected by her Russian “friends” |
| F#7 |
The | junta is assisted by Americans |
| A | Am | E |
And if | sixty million dollars seems | too much to spend in El | Salvador |
| E |
They say | for half a billion they could do it right |
F#7 |
Bomb all day, burn all night |
| A | Am | E | E7 |
Unt | il there’s not a living t | hing upright in El Sa | lvador | |
| A | B |
They’ll con | tinue training troops in the | USA |
G#m | C#m |
And watch the nuns that | got away |
A | B |
And teach the military | bands |
| E | E7 |
To play South of the | Border | |
A | B |
And kill the people to | set them free |
G#m | C#m |
Who put this price on their | liberty? |

Don’t you think it’s | time to leave El Salva | dor? |

We both lie silently still in the | dead of the night |
| G | Cadd9 |
Although we | both lie close together we feel | miles apart inside |
| G | Cadd9 |
Was it | something I said or | something I did |
| G | Cadd9 |
Did my | words not come out | right |
| D | Cadd9 |
Though I | tried not to hurt you though I | tried |
I guess that’s why they say
G | Cadd9 |
Every rose has its | thorn |
| G | Cadd9 |
Just like | every night has its | dawn |
| G | D | Cadd9 | G |
Just like | every | cowboy sings his | sad, sad | song |
G | Cadd9 |
Every rose has its | thorn |
Yeah it does
| G | Cadd9 |
I | listen to our favorite song playing on the | radio |
| G | Cadd9 |
Hear the | DJ say love’s a game of easy come and | easy go |
| G | Cadd9 |
But I | wonder does | he know |
| G | Cadd9 |
Has he | ever felt like | this |
| D |
And I | know that you’d be here right now |

If I | could have let you know somehow I guess |
G | Cadd9 |
Every rose has its | thorn |

Just like | every night has its | dawn |

Just like | every | cowboy sings his | sad, sad | song |

Every rose has its | thorn |

Though its been a | while now I can |

I know I could have saved a love that night If I’d | known what to say |
G | Cadd9 |
Instead of makin’ love we both | made our separate ways |
| G | Cadd9 |
And now I | hear you found somebo | dy new |
| G | Cadd9 |
And | that I never meant that mu | ch to you |

To he | ar that tears me up inside |

And to | see you cuts me like a knife |
