F#m, E, F#m
A, G#m, A
F#m, G#m, A
C#m, B
 
chorus:
(got to tell you to)
get your emotions back in line
you'll be fine
you won't and if you won't then why
why would I why would I try

they've agreed it's all been said and done before
every word I told you is sincere get it clear

[chorus]

there's no one else I'd rather do this for
though we haven't spoke inside a year
but you've got me up and through the day before

[chorus]

2. Hot Potato

G, A, Bm, D
G, A, Bm
G, A, Bm, D
G, A
D, G, A

got the history of rock and roll
put a pyramid inside my soul
never stuttered us in the same breath
what's this feeling I just can't get off my chest

chorus:
well how can you go on when you don't (?)
(she) dropped me quicker than a hot potato (?)
feel so damn obligated cool it down (cool it down)

put the history back on the shelf
gave a pyramid to someone else
never stuttered us in the same breath
what's this feeling I just can't get off my chest

[chorus]

3. Nobel Rot

D, Bm, Em, G
G, D
F, G, Em, Am

here's (?) on a map, we'll cut you down
you'd better watch your step, I hear he's cutting air

chorus:
one slip and he's back packing groceries
the right kind of pill but the wrong kind of doses
patch it up if you're a drunk and a junkie patch it up
(patch it up cause you remind me of something patch it up)

you really aren't aware, it's gonna take you far from here
you read it on a wall, it says she's overboard

[chorus]

deep down I'm a little too tired
don't take no shit from no one
so you better

patch it up if you're a drunk and a junkie
patch it up cause you remind me of something
patch it up patch it up patch it up

4. Breadcrumb Trail

C, Am, Em, G 
Em, D, Em, C, Em, C, G
C, G

oh tell me your sordid secrets
the words not to be repeated
no sooner a sharp breath is drawn

and it's time to shut all the doors
the doors you leave ajar
the doors that have no locks
it's a breadcrumb trail that'd fool anyone

chorus:
cause you'd give hansel a run for his money
the timing is perfect and all too intentional
if you can't find the keys to the candy
well that's another tale it's purely fabricational

you've chosen this sudden moment
it's not appropriate but
the dam had to break tonight

now it's time to open the doors
the doors you leave so tight
the doors are tight so low
it's a breadcrumb trail that'd fool anyone

[chorus]

5. Real McCoy Wrong Sinatra

Am, D, G, C
Am, D, G
Em, C, Am, D

chorus:
she's (just) a little bit less out of it
then she was when we first met
methamphetamine and dirty magazines
still buying cigarettes

roll over rocktober
feel the seed of rollins
roll over (so) now you know
she'll get shitfaced (to/and) steal the show

[chorus]

6. The Stars Are Coming Out

Am, C, G

7. Eighteen In A Week

D, D7, G, G7
Em, F, Em, D, G
C, Am, F, G
Em, F, Bb, G

there's a right and a wrong way to doing it
better speak my mind or snap to it
your hair over your shoulder
not quite a little bit older than me

chorus:
don't you want to sleep beside me
don't you want to be inside me
who you gonna see besides me
I'm eighteen in a week

there's a straight and a strong way to doing it
there's a line I see right through it
half my luck thrown over my shoulder
not quite a little bit older than me

[chorus]

you better speak your mind

8. Recent Reich

G, C
C, Em, G
C, B, A, C, D, G
Em, G
G, D, Eb

(?) my blistering idea
let me take you on a slow drive through the motions so sincere

here's my intention
it's impossible to hide
I've got a german connection
and I'm going on the record as a fan of the most recent reich

before I'm gonna get some grief from you save your breath cause I aint
got time
let me take you on a slow walk through the paces so sublime

it's in my complexion
it's impossible to hide
I've got a german connection
and I'm going on the record as a fan of the most recent reich

and it's so bad I've been looking forward little miss time of year is
calling
so bad I was looking forward little miss time of year is calling
so bad I was looking forward little miss time of year is calling
so bad looking forward

9. Lucked Out

it's enough to know the way is clear
doesn't need to be all like the (?)
maybe just feel your way around so easily

I don't wanna go through this again
I don't wanna spend (?)
waiting for the worst thing that could happen to happen

chorus:
well up tight lit a match (?)
want convincing me your time has come and she should know
cause you're always too (?) by the ocean too blue
(?) tell me little later look I'm sorry but your time is up

it's enough to know the way is clear
doesn't need to be all like the (?)
maybe just your way around it's easily

[chorus]

10. Kokoro

D, Bm, Gm, A
A, C, A, G, A, C#
F#m
A, G, D
F#m, B, C

(well) there's a blank page sitting in a vacant drawer
who did I write it for
omnomatopeia on an apple core
who did I write it for

she don't like the jesus foetus
so by the time I get to phoenix
she wonders she's open
she likes her men with some motion

driving, no style, make me feel so, juvenile
you see from where I stand you're leaving the better man so cry if you
can
so I, check you later, confusing, what you're using
I'm cruising, must have missed her, I'm moving in, in on your sister
you see from where I stand you're leaving the better man
take it or leave it no need to feed it

11. Jo Jo And The Guts

E, G, Am
C, D, G, C

taken by surprise
how much is enough
tempting words in time
here are jo jo and the guts

chorus:
(and/but) if it reached my mind it really hasn't reached me at all
cause if you've reached my mind you really haven't reached me at all

took it for a ride
took it for a spin
took me place you like that band
you think I'm in

[chorus]

12. Lonely Kid

D, G, Em
Em, Am, D, G, C
F, C
G, D, C, D

you said it was a hell of an act I was angry
(?) right out the back I was angry
I've been busted but the secrets intact I was angry

now whatever comes of this we're dropping free fall everytime
what if it's a big what if and I stuck my neck on the line just for
some
child

don't know if you're just faking to please me
damn everything I've done isn't easy
got wise and through this ring before this time

I don't know why but I think you might be in line for a promotion
but you're second to me and I'm second to none
got a future so bright and I'm trying to move on

didn't I do didn't I did wasn't I a lonely kid
big on luck but short on thanks (?) at the river bank
I'm alive like you got a low i.q.

but you're second to me and I'm second to none
I'm the pick of the litter you're ahead of the run
you're second to me and I'm second to none
got a future so bright I (?)

13. I Was Born To Change The World

Am, F
F, G, Am
F, G, Em, D, G, F

well hey I'm looking for a reason
but my heart's too bothered by the call
if all you wanted was an act of treason
(?) back against the wall

but I believe it no question
well we'll make no bones about that
all you started was your own election
and I'm a stranded diplomat it isn't leaving

you're alone and you're not leaving

well hey I'm looking for a reason
but my heart's too bothered by the call
if all you wanted was an only reason
no shit no style no soul

no substance no problem
we'll make no bones about that
if all you wanted was your own election
I'd be stranded diplomat look who's leaving

I'm alone and you're not grieving

when the summertime's gone and there's no soul
on the beach at avalon
goodbye tiger (?)
it's from a richard clapton song
