Marching Bands Of Manhattan
CIf I cGould open my arms
DAnd span Fthe length of the isle of Manhattan,
CI'd brinGg it to where you are
DMaking a laFke of the East River and Hudson
CIf I couGld open my mouth
DWide enoFugh for a marching band to march out
CThey woulGd make your name sing
DAnd bend Fthrough alleys and bounce off all the buildings.
F Am C D (x2)
I Cwish weG could open our eyes
DTo see inF all directions at the same time
COh what Ga beautiful view
DIf you were neveFr aware of what was around you
CAnd it Gis true what you said
DThat FI live like a hermit in my own head
CBut wheGn the sun shines again
DI'll pulFl the curtains and blinds to let the light in.
Chorus (x4)
FSorrow Amdrips into your heart through a pinhole
CJust likDe a faucet that leaks and there is comfort in the sound
FBut whilAme you debate half empty or half full
CIt slowly rises, your love is gonna drown
FYoAmur CloDve is gonna drown [4x]
Your love is gonna...

Soul Meets Body
Intro: Dm C (x2)
DmI want to lCive where soul meets body
DmAnd let Fthe sun wrap its arms around me
DmAnd bathe mFy skin in water cool and cleansing
And feCel, feel Dmwhat its like to be new
Cause in mFy head there’s a greyhound station
DmWhere I send mFy thoughts to far off destinations
So tDmhey may haFve a chance of finding a place
whCere they’re far more suited than here
Dm F C (x4)
DmAnd I caFnnot guess what we'll discover
DmWhen we tuFrn the dirt with our palms cupped like shovels
BuDmt I knowF our filthy hands can wash one another’s
And notC one speck will remain
And I Dmdo beFlieve itC’s true
ThatDm there Fare rCoads left in both of our shoes
But Dmif theF silence takes you
ThCen I DmhopFe Cit takes me too
SoDm broFwn Ceyes I hold you near
CauseDm you’re the onlyF songC I want to hear
A DmmeloFdy Csoftly DmsoaFriCng through my atmosphere
WherDme soulF mDmeets body
WhDmere soul meets body
WhDmere soul meets body
And I Dmdo beFlieve itC’s true
ThatDm there Fare rCoads left in both of our shoes
But Dmif theF silence takes you
ThCen I DmhopFe Cit takes me too
SoDm broFwn Ceyes I hold you near
CauseDm you’re the onlyF songC I want to hear
A DmmeloFdy Csoftly soaring through my atmosphere
A Dmmelody softly soaring through my atmosphere
A Dmmelody softly soaring through my atmosphere
A Dmmelody softly soaring through my atmosphere

ThDmen CLabBbor day came and went
AnDmd we sChedBb what was left of our summer skin
Dm C Bb F C Bb (x2)
DmOn theC niBbght you left I came over
AndDm we peelCed the Bbfreckles from our shoulders
OuDmr brCandBb new coats so flushed and pink
AnDmd I CkneBbw your heart I couldn't win
CausDme thCe seasBbons change was a conduit
AnDmd weC lefBbt our love in our summer skin

Different Names For The Same Thing"

But I Ddidn't cBbare where I waGs goiDng
'Cause Bmthey'rBbe all GdifDferent names for the same place.
ThDe cBboast dGisappearDed when the sea drowned the sun
And I kDnew nBo wordGs toD share with anyone
ThDe boundBbaries Gof Dlanguage I quietly cursed
And Bmall Fthe difGferDent names for the same things

There Bmare diFffeGrenDt names for the same things
There are different names for the same things...

Intro: Dm F Bb F F/E Dm F C Dm F A7 Dm C Bb Dm F
FLove ofDm mine some day you will die
But BbI'll be close behind
I'Fll follow yCou into the dark
NoF blindiDmng light or tunnels to gates of white
JustBb our hands clasped so tight
WaFitingC for the hint of a spark
If DmHeaven andF Hell decide
ThatBb they boFth F/Eare satisfied
DmIllumiFnate Cthe NOs on their vacancy signs
If Dmthere'Fs no one beside you
When yoA7ur sDmoulC embarks
Then I'llBb folBbmlow you Finto the dark
InF CatholDmic school as vicious as Roman rule
I Bbgot my kFnucCkles bruised by a lady in black
AnBbd I held my tDmongue as she told me
&quoBbt;Son fear is the heart of love"
SoF I Cnever went back
If DmHeaven andF Hell decide
ThatBb they botFh F/Eare satisfied
DmIllumiFnate thCe NOs on their vacancy signs
If Dmthere'Fs no one beside you
When yoA7ur sDmoul Cembarks
Then I'llBb folBbmlow you Finto the dark
FYou andDm me have seen everything to see
From BbBangkok to Calgary
AnFd theC soFles of your shoes are all worn down
The Dmtime for sleep is now
It'sBb nothing to cry about
Cause we'Fll holdC each other soon
ThDme blBbackest of rooms
If DmHeaven andF Hell decide
ThatBb they botFh F/Eare satisfied
DmIllumiFnate thCe NOs on their vacancy signs
If Dmthere'Fs no one beside you
When yoA7ur sDmoul Cembarks

"Crooked Teeth"
Capo on 1st Fret
FIt wBbas oneC# hunG#dred degrFeesBb, as wC#e saG#t beneath a willow tree,
WhFo's teBbars diC#dn't care,G# they FjusBbt hungC# inG# the air, and refused to fall, to fall.
FAndBb I kneC#w I'G#d made a horrible call,
AnFd now tBbhe stateC# linG#e felt like the Berlin wall,
AnFd therBbe was noC doubt about which side I was on.
FhmmmBb...C#. G#
F5CausEme I builtD# you aC home in my heart,
WiF5th roEmtten wD#ood, iBbt decayed from the start.
Cause yoC#u can'G#t fiD#nd nothing at all,
IfC# there wasG# nothiD#ng there all along.
NoC# youG# can't findD# nothing at all,
IfC# there was G#nothinD#g there all along.
F Bb C# G# (x2)
FI brBbaved trC#eacherG#ous streets,
And kidsF struBbng oC#ut on hoG#memade speed.
AnFd weBb shareC#d a G#bed in which I could not sleep,
At alFl, woo,Bb hoo, C#woo, G#hooOoOo.
FCause Bbat nightC# the sG#un in retreat,
MadeF thBbe skylC#ine loG#ok like crooked teeth,
InF thBbe moutC#h ofG# a manF wBbho C#wasG# devouring, us both.
F5You're Emso cute whenD# you'rCe slurring your speech,
But theyF5're clEmosing thBbe bar and they want us to leave.
And C#you can'G#t find notD#hing at all,
IfC# there wasG# nothing thD#ere all along.
NoC# you cG#an't findD# nothing at all,
IfC# there wasG# nothing thD#ere all along.
BbI'm a waCr, of head versus heart,
AnFd it's aBblways this way.
My heaBbd is weaCk, my heart always speaks,
BeFfore I kBbnow what it will say.
C# G D# (x4)
And C#you can'G#t find notD#hing at all,
IfC# there wasG# nothing thD#ere all along.
NoC# you cG#an't findD# nothing at all,
IfC# there wasG# nothing thD#ere all along.
And C#you can'G#t find notD#hing at all,
IfC# there wasG# nothing thD#ere all along.
TherC#e weG#re chuD#rches, theme parks and malls,
But C#therG#e waD#s nothing there all along.
"What Sarah Said"
F G Am E F G Am E F G A E F G Am E
AnFd it caGme to Amme theEn that every plan is a tiny prayer to father time
AsF I starGed Amat my Eshoes in the ICU that reeked of piss and 409
AnFd I ratGioned mAmy breaEths as I said to myself that I'd already taken too much today
AsF each dGescendiAmng peEak on the LCD took you a little farther away from me
FAway GfrAmom Eme
F G Am E
AmonFgst the vGending maAmchines aEnd year-old magazines in a place where we only say goodbye
It sFtung liGke a AmviolenEt wind that our memories depend on a faulty camera in our minds
But FI knew Gthat yoAmu weEre a truth I would rather lose than to have never lain beside at all
And FI looGked aroAmund Eat all the eyes on the ground as the TV entertained itself
'CDause thCere's nAmo cEomfort in the waiting room
JuDst neFrvous pAacers Ebracing for bad news
And Dthen thCe nurse cAomeEs round and everyone will lift their heads
BuDt I'mF thinAking Fof whCat Sarah said that "Love is watching someone die"
F C F G C
SoF who's GgoingC toE wFatch you die?..

G#You may tCmire ofD# me asG# our December sun is setting because I'm not who I used to be
No longG#er easy Cmon the eD#yes bG#ut these wrinkles masterfully disguise
The BbyoutG#hful boyCm below who turned your way and saw
SomethinD#g heG# was not looking for: both a beginning and an end
G#But now heCm lives insiD#de somG#eone he does not recognize
When he catcheBbs his reGflection on accident
G# Cm D# G#
G#On the bCmack of a motor bike
WithD# your armsG# outstretched trying to take flight
Leaving everything behind
G#But evenCm at our swD#iftest sG#peed we couldn't break from the concrete
In theBb city where we still reside.
G#And I Cmhave lD#earnedG# that even landlocked lovers yearn for the sea like navy men
G#Cause noCmw we sD#ay gooG#dnight from our own separate sides
Like brotherBbs onD# a hotel bed
Like bD#rothers on a hotel bed
