Maniac

Into with voice: F G C Am

I did get your message.

I just can't believe you're doing this.

What is wrong with you?

I told you, it's over. I am not coming back.

More importantly, I just don't love you any more.

Can't you get that into your head?
C...................F....................Em
And when I made that stupid oath
............Am..............F
About how I was going to
C..................F.....................Em
Pay for someone to kill you both
........................Am........F
It was just my way of showing you

C........................F
That I wasn't playing
.....................Em..........................Am F
Oh yeah, you're right, I sounded like a maniac
C....................................F
But that's just what I am saying
.....Em..................................................Am.........F
You'll only see how much I've changed, if you come back
SAME IE, C,F,Em,Am,F
And when I threw out all your books

You know that wasn't planned

I know how terrible it looks

But you got to understand

It's just that they'd remind me

Of sleepy days and sleepless nights I spent with you

I tried to put it all behind me

I didn't realise how much I'm still in love with you

........Dm...................G
Oh please can't you drop this stance
..........C..........................F
And maybe give me one more chance
..........Dm..............G
Just say what you want from me
................C(X32013)....F(XX3213)
Because, oh, I'd do anything to bring you back home
SAME
Oh yeah, anything, just pick up the 'phone
SAME AS VERSE
Everyone thinks that I look thin

Oh but I don't mind them

But these insects crawling on my skin

Why can I never find them?

The thought of you two screwing

Has turned me into some kind of a maniac

I really don't know what I'm doing

You'll only see how much I've changed, if you come back
Dm.. ETC
Oh please can't you drop this stance

And maybe give me one more chance

Just say what you want from me
............C(X32013).....F(XX3213)
Because, oh, I'd do anything to bring you back home
SAME
Oh yeah, anything, just pick up the 'phone

I'd do anything to bring you back home

Oh yeah, anything, just pick up the 'phone

Comedienne

Intro: C F
C....................F.................Em.............F
You know that I've had my suspicions all along
SAME C,F,Em,F
Well would you be here now, if something wasn't wrong?

Your heart broke, and you still joke

Because you're such a comedienne

But that creep made you weep

Don't laugh it off again
G.F...........C....................F.........G.....F
Oh just forget the things he said
..................C......F.......C.......F etc
And get into bed
C................F............Em....................................F
He never loved you and deep down you know I'm right
SAME C,F,Em,F
If you don't want to go back home just stay the night

Oh I'm not joking

Because you're the comedienne

No I mean it, I've seen it

And now I want to see you smile again
G.F............C....................F..........G.....F
Oh just forget the things he said
..................C.....F....C......F
And get into bed
C..................Em.....................F...............G
You want to leave him and you're looking for excuses
C.........................Em...................F.............................G
That's why you're here, I guess us old friends have our uses
C....................Em
But we could, oh we should
F...........................G
Lie down here, you won't regret it
C................Em
Stay near me, do you hear me?
.........F....................G
Oh, I'm sincere, now come and get it
G.F.............C...................F.....G.....F
Oh just forget the things he said
..................C....F.....C....F....C...F
And get into bed

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hate

INTRO: C F G

.....................C...............Am.................................Em..............F
I'm glad you agree you've got so many things to say sorry for
....................C....................G..................................F...............G
But listen to me because I'm not going to take it all anymore
....................C.........Am................................Em........................F
There was a time, don't ask me when, it made sense, somehow
..................C............G.............................F....................G
But, darling I'm just so glad that I can see clearly now
................................C................F..................G
Because I hate your lies and the guys you call friends
.......................C.........................F....................................G
In fact just everything's telling me this is where the love affair ends

I should say good bye but I don't think I will, it might slow you down

Oh you'll get by, just start a new life, in some other town

Oh please don't cling, take whatever you want, oh yeah, I'll agree

To anything that keeps you a long way away from me

Because I hate your style and your smile, and I regret

That almost everything about you makes me wish that we'd never met
..................Am
We are just so wrong for each other
...............F
That it's hard for me to understand
.............C
How I ever wanted you for a lover
.................G
I hate your country, your continent and
...................C..............F..................G
I hate your lies and the guys you call friends

In fact just everything is telling me this is where the love affair ends

I hate your style and your smile, and I regret

That almost everything about you makes me wish that we'd never met

Kerry, Kerry


Well at least can't you
G.............................Bm.......................G
Look at me when I'm speaking to you?
...........................Bm....................G
Because there are things I've got to say

Well what was he sneaking to you

When you thought I'd looked away?

I get it, I get it

Now I understand just what you're playing

I get it, I get it

I guess there isn't any point delaying
C........................D................G........Em(022003)
You would rather that I wasn't here
..................C..............D...........................G...........Em
You don't have to say a word, it's crystal clear

You bought him presents with my money

That makes me feel just great, although

I've got to say that it is kind of funny

That you could think I'd never know

I get it, I get it

It was just another way of saying

I get it, I get it

That you really didn't want me staying

Oh I bet you just wish that I'd disappear

You don't have to say a word, it's crystal clear
C.................D
Lying in my bed
G....?(200003).....Em
You remember when
C.....................D
It was you who said
................G.....?(200003)..Em
That we'd never be apart again

But now the longer that I hang around

The more anxious that you get

Oh it looks like Romeo has found

A nervous Juliet

Because you would rather that I wasn't here

You don't have to say a word, it's crystal clear

Oh I bet you just wish that I'd disappear

You don't have to say a word, it's crystal clear
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Barefoot In The Park

..........C...................F............Am
That smile on your face as you awake
C..........F............................Am
Oh, it just makes my heart ache

Let's lie all day here in the dark

And watch "Barefoot in the Park"
................F........................G
And it's because you're so sublime
.............C.................?(X20010)..Am
That I think about you all the time

Don't ask me if it's true

Because how could anybody not love you?

You open my lips with your thumb

You know I will succumb

When you shave my skin I don't feel pain

And I just can't explain

How it's because you're so sublime

That I think about you all the time

Don't ask me if it's true

Because how could anybody not love you?
..............F...............G
And the world before I met you
...............C................?(X20010).....Am
I can't remember now, what was that like?
.............F......................G
Because you, you're so beautiful
BREAK: F.......Am

Just hold your body close to mine

Oh that feels so divine

You're every single dream I've had come true

I'm so glad I found you

Yes it's because you're just sublime

That I think about you all the time

Don't ask me if it's true

Because how could anybody not love you?

And the world before I met you

I can't remember now, what was that like?

Because you, you're so beautiful

There is no part of you that I dislike
.........F.............G........................Am
Oh what would I do without you?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


You Turn Me On

D................G(XXX033)...D..................G(XXX033)
I saw you staring, I pretended not to care
D.....................G(XXX033).......D...................G(XXX033)
You left your hirsute presence hanging in the air
A..................................................G
I didn't want to fall in love but now I think you've changed my mind
D............................G..................D.................G
Yeah, there was someone, but that was years ago
.................D............G...................D.............G
She was positively charming but I had to let her go
A..........................................G
She needed to be adored and I didn't feel inclined
...................E...........A..................D.................G
There's no way, since then that I've ever wanted anyone
........E.....A...............D....................G
To stay again, oh, but you just really turn me on

And I can't take my eyes off you tonight

And if you asked me to make love to you, I might

Because nobody's ever made me feel like this before

It's disconcerting, it's becoming quite surreal

There is no point in asking because I don't know how I feel

But I'm sure that this is something too good to ignore

There's no way, since then that I've ever wanted anyone

To stay again, but now suddenly those thoughts have gone

There's no way, since then that I've ever wanted anyone

To stay again, oh, but you just really turn me on

There's no way, since then that I've ever wanted anyone

To stay again, but now suddenly those thoughts have gone
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ears

INTRO: D,G,Em,A

(His)
D....................G.........................Em
Gone as far as I can go with this crap
.....................A
I've not come here just to

Watch him lie

With his head in your lap

Well, at least not there, oh must you?

REPEAT VERSE WITH LOVELY LADY B/VOC
................................G.........A
When you started to screw, I knew
.......................D..................G
I should have run away
..........................................................A
Because I could hear it all through the wall
..........................D
But I just had to stay
............................G.............A
Every laugh, every cry, every sigh
.....D......................G
Oh I can't face
.............................................A
The way I've behaved, but I just craved
....................D
To be in his place

I told him when we met

I told him I was afraid

That you'd just play with him

But I won't forget

Those sounds that you made

Behind that door with him

REPEAT VERSE WITH ENCHANTING LADY B/VOC

When you started to screw,

I knew I should have run away

Because I could hear it all through the wall

But I just had to stay

Every laugh, every cry, every sigh

Oh I can't face

The way I've behaved, but I just craved

To be in his place

(Hers)
But this is all your fault
We made a solemn promise
You said: "Let's be adult"
"There's no point running from it"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Me Next

.................A
I was too scared to phone
......................D
In case you weren't alone
........E....................................C#m...........A....D
So I called up your best friend instead
.........................E
Because I had to know

Oh, and when I asked her

If you two were

Still living together, she said:

"I don't think so"
D......................Bm..................A..............................E
And please don't think that I'm suggesting you're over-sexed
D..................Bm
But if he's really gone
........A.......E......................D........A
Oh please, can I be the next?
E.....................D
Let me be the next

And if you really knew

How much I'd worshipped you

Right from the first time we spoke

Would you have relented?

But all those looks we'd share

When he wasn't there

Do you think that was all just a joke?

Oh well I meant it

And please don't think that I'm suggesting you're over-sexed

But if he's really gone

Oh please, can I be the next?

Let me be the next

Please, can I be the next?

Let me be the next

Please, can I be the next?

Let me be the next

Hard, Fast And Beautiful

Em........................C..........D
And guess what I found
...........B
It's a letter that I started writing
Em........................C.......D......B
When you walked out
.................Em..............C.........D
It says that I won't miss you
.....................B
Because I've met someone who's more exciting
Em.....................C............D......B
But that wasn't true
G....................A
So how did I lose you?
................C...............................D
The last thing you ever wanted to do was to hurt me
G.....................A............C..........D
But I'd still accuse you
Em etc..
And I couldn't know

I'd never feel the same way with another

So I let you go
G etc..
Yeah, I've got a girlfriend

She's beautiful, considerate and yes, I do love her

But I'm not going to pretend
.......................................LONG D
That she's ever going to be the one
..............C......D.......................G.............Em
Because now I know that it was you all the time
C..................D.........................G
How could I ever think it wasn't true?
C.................D..........................G...........Em
Now I've stopped trying to tell myself that I've
C...................D.......................B
Grown out of being in love with you

And deep in the night

I lie awake and think about you

Of course it's not right

But what can I do?

I can't sleep in this bed without you

If you only knew

Yeah, I've got a girlfriend

She's beautiful, considerate and yes, I do love her

But I'm not going to pretend

That she's ever going to be the one

Because now I know that it was you all the time

How could I ever think it wasn't true?

So now I've stopped trying to tell myself that I've

Grown out of being in love with you

Now I know that it was you all the time

How could I ever think it wasn't true?

Now I've stopped trying to tell myself that I've

Grown out of being in love with you
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dance, Girl, Dance

D...................F#m...................G
I thought that we could just lie here,

but yes I know how you love dancing in that dress
A...........................Bm..........Em
And yes, I love to watch
................................A
You soothe away my troubles

But now slide those freshly shaven legs into

The clean cold sheets I've put on just for you

With every single touch

My love for you just doubles
......................D....................G
But of course none of this has happened at all, yet
D......................G
We've not even spoken, but I'll bet
Em................................A
Once you're through my door
............Em.......................A
You'll want to stay for ever more

Because I will hold you so tight, I'll make you see how

You are the right woman for me now

Just give me a glance

To show me that I've got a chance

All this cavorting is designed to tease

And girl your dancing drives me wild so please

Do it one more time

But make it last forever

Oh how come none of this has happened at all, yet

We've not even spoken, but I'll bet

Once you're through my door

You'll want to stay for ever more

Because I will hold you so tight, I'll make you see how

You are the right woman for me now

Just give me a glance

To show me that I've got a chance

Oh dance, girl, dance

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Honey Rider

.........................................D...F...G
Oh I'm sick of hearing you say
........................D...........................F..........G
That you can't 'phone because he'll hear you calling

But don't you think the way

That you're treating us both is quite appalling?
........F#m.................G....................F#m
Oh, sure, you nearly told him everything
..................G.....................D.....F....G
But nearly doesn't mean a thing

I know you don't want to row

Oh but you think you're just so clever

Well, I'm waiting now

But I won't be waiting here forever
.........F#m..................G................F#m
Oh, sure, you nearly told him everything
....................G..................D
But nearly doesn't mean a thing
...............G.......................F#m...G
And you know full well I'm right
.............D.........G....................F#m..G
And if you won't say a word, I might
SAME AS D,G,F#m,G
Because you've had thousands of chances

To tell him his romance is

Not exactly what he'd call true

I know the strain that you're under

But I've started to wonder

If one lover is sufficient for you

Oh, sure, you nearly told him everything

But nearly doesn't mean a thing

If you don't talk to him until I force you to, I will

Because you know full well I'm right

And if you won't say a word, I might

Because you've had thousands of chances

To tell him his romance is

Not exactly what he'd call true

I know the strain that you're under

But I've started to wonder

If one lover is sufficient for you
