If I have	things you need to	borr	ow

A	D	A
For no one can	fill those of your	needs

That you won’t	let	show

Let an extra measure hang here on the IV

	A	D	A	E	A
You just	call on me	bro	ther, when	you need a hand

A/C#	Dmaj7	A/E	D/F#
E/G#	D/F#	A	A/G#	D/F#

A	D/A	A	A	E/G#
I’ve seen the	lights go out on	Broadway

F#m	Dadd9	E	Esus4	E	Dadd9
I saw the	Empire State laid	low

C#m7	F#m
And life went on beyond the P	alisades

	A/E	E
They all bought	Cadillacs

	Dadd9	D	E
And left there	long ago

A	D/A	A	A	E/G#
They held a	concert out in	Brooklyn

F#m	Dadd9	E	Esus4	E	Dadd9
To watch the	island bridges	blow

Hanging stops

A/C#	D
They turned our	power down

A/E	D/F#
And drove us u	nderground

E/G#	D/F#	A
But we went	right on with the s	how

Now the rock starts, on guitar change Bm to G/B

A	D/A	A	A	E/G#
I’ve seen the	lights go out on	Broadway

F#m	D	E	A/E	E
I saw the	ruins at my	feet

C#m7	F#m
You know we almost didn’t	notice it

	A/E	E
We’d seen it	all the time

	D	D	E
On Forty-	Second Street

A	D/A	A	A	E/G#
They burned the	churches up in	Harlem

F#m	D	E	A/E	E
Like in that	Spanish civil	war

A/C#	D
The flames were e	verywhere

A/E	D/F#
But no one	really cared

E/G#	D/F#	A
It always	burned up there before

A	D/A	A	A	E/G#
I’ve seen the	lights go out on	Broadway

F#m	D	E	A/E	E	Dadd9
I watched the	mighty skyline	fall

C#m7	F#m
The boats were waiting at the	Battery

	A/E	E
The union w	ent on strike

	D	D	E
They never	sailed at all

A	D/A	A	A	E/G#
They sent a car	rier out from	Norfolk

	F#m	D	E	A/E	E
And	picked the	Yankees up for	free

A/C#	D
They said that	Queens could stay

A/E	D/F#
They blew the B	ronx away

E/G#	D/F#	A
And sank Man	hattan out at s	ea

A	F#m	A	F#m	A	A/E	E	A/E	E
	→	→	→	→	→		→

x2

Hanging stop on “lights”, mellow out

A	D/A	A	A	E/G#
You know those	lights were bright on	Broadway

F#m	D	E	Esus4	E	Dadd9
But that was so	many years ago

C#m7	F#m
Before we all lived here in	Florida

	A/E	E	Dadd9	D	E
Before the	Mafia	took over	Mexico

A	D/A	A	A	E/G#
There are not	many who re	member

F#m	Dadd9	E
They say a	handful still	survive

A/C#	D
To tell the	world about

A/E	D/F#
The way the l	ights went out

E	D/F#	F
And keep the me	mory alive

I could	walk away from anyone I	ever knew

	Em	F	Gm	Am
But I	can’t walk away from	you

	Bb	Am
I have	never let anything have this much	control over me

Vox stay on the 3 of the chord

	Em	F
But	I’ve never been in	love like this

F

It’s outta my hands

	G	D/F#
I’m sham	eless, I don’t have the	power now

	Em	C	Bb
I don’t want it	anyhow so I’ve got to let it go

	G	D/F#
I’m sham	eless, shameless as a ma	n can be

	C#m	C#m7/B	C#m/A#	A
I’m no	t one of those	who can	easily	hide

	E	B	G#	C#m
I don’	t have much	money, but	boy if I	did

E	F#m7	A	B
I’d buy a big	house where	we both could	live

E	Amaj7	B	G#m
If I was a sc	ulptor,	but then again	no

	C#m	C#m7/B	C#m/A#	A

My gift is my	song, and	this one’s for	you

Well a	few of the	verses, well, they’ve	got me quite	crossed

E	B	G#	C#m
But the sun’s been quite	kind,	while I wrote this	song

E	F#m7	A	B
It’s for people like	you that they	keep it	turned on

E	Amaj7	B	G#m
So excuse me forget	ting	but	these things I do

	C#m	C#m7/B	C#m/A#	A
You se	e I’ve f	orgotten if they’re	green or they’re	blue

E	B	G#	C#m

Yours are the	sweetest eyes	I’ve ever seen

So quiet but I f	inally woke up

F#	B	A	A7
If you’re sad then it’s	time you spoke up	too

Guitar solo on chorus chords... if there’s _anyone_ around to play it

it would push the song over that critical 60-second mark.

Garth Brooks - Rodeo

If I had to call all those E5’s Em or E, I’d call them E,

but they should be as E5 as possible, with an occasional E7#9.

I play the G A over an open A.

G	A
E5	G	A

	E5
His	eyes are cold and restless

	A	E5
His	wounds have almost	healed

	A	E5
And	she’d give half of	Texas

	A	E5
Just to	change the way he	feels

Vox up to the 1 on “knows”

	E5
She	knows his love’s in Tulsa

	A
And she	knows he’s gonna go

It starts to become a major chord here

	E5
Well it	ain’t no woman flesh and blood

	B7
It’s that	damned old rodeo

	E
Well it’s	bulls and blood, it’s dust and mud

	A	E
It’s the	roar of a Sunday	crowd

	E
It’s the	white in his knuckles, the gold in the buckle

	B7	D	B
He’ll	win the next go ‘round

	E
It’s	boots and chaps, it’s cowboy hats

	A	E
It’s	spurs and lati	go, it’s the ropes and the reins

	B7	E5
And the joy and the pain and they	call the thing rode	o

E5	G	A

	E5
She	does her best to hold him

	A	E5
When	his love comes to	call

	A	E5
But his	need for it cont	rols him

	A	E5
And her	back’s against the	wall

	E5
And it’s	so long girl I’ll see you

	A	A	G
When it’s	time for him to go

	E5
You know the	woman wants her cowboy

	B7
Like he	wants his rodeo

	E7
It’ll	drive a cowboy crazy

	A	E7
It’ll	drive a man in	sane

	A	E5

A	E5
Just to pay to play the	game

	E5
And a	broken home and some broken bones

Is	all he’ll have to show

For	all the years that he spent chasin’

This	dream they call rodeo

Johnny Mathis - Without Us

I play the intro roughly as follows, leaving the

second line on the m(7, not 9) to make the transition

Misc - Greatest American Hero Theme

Originally in D, I play in A, vox up to the 5

There are lots of good reasons to quit after the second

chorus, skipping the bridge and the key change.

Arrangement of the intro chords in A

Vox on the 3, which will feel really low in A

A	D	E	A

Bridge

	Cmaj7
This is too good to be	true

	A#maj7	D/E	E	D/E	E
Look at	me, falling for you

Each “believe it or not” lasts as long as it does in the

other chorus, so the chord changes are slower

	A	A/C#	D	D/F#
Be	lieve it or	not, be	lieve it or	not

	A	A/C#	D	D/F#
Be	lieve it or	not, be	lieve it or	not
