Stay - Jackson Browne

Now the seats are all empty

Let the roadies take the stage

Pack it up and tear it down

They're the first to come and the last to leave

Working for that minimum wage

They're setting up in another town

Tonight the people were so fine

They waited there in line

And when they got up on their feet,

and made the show, and that was sweet

and I can hear the sound of slamming doors and folding chairs

and that's a sound they'll never know

And load those cases and load those amps

and haul those truses up and get'um up those ramps

And when it comes to moving me,

you know you guys are the champs

but when that last guitar has been packed away,

you know that I still want to play

So just make sure you got it all set to go

before you come for my piano

But the band is on the bus,

and they're ready to go

We got to drive all night

And do the show in Chicago... or Detroit.

I don't know, we do so many shows in a row

And these towns all look the same

We just pass the time in the hotel rooms

and wander around backstage

Till those lights come up, and we hear that crowd,

and remember why we came

Now we got country and western on the bus,

R & B, we got disco in 8-tracks and casettes in stereo

We've got rural scenes and magazines

And we've got truckers on CB

We got Richard Pryor on the video

We've got time to think of the ones we love

While the miles roll away

but the only time that seems too short is the time that we get to play

People you've got the power over what we do

or you can sit there and wait

or you can come with us too

Come along, sing this song

You know that you can't go wrong

'Cause when that mornin' sun comes beating down

you're gonna wake up in your town

And we'll be scheduled to appear

a thousand miles away from here

People stay just a little bit longer

We want to play -- just a little bit longer

Now the promoter don't mind

And the union don't mind

If we take a little time

And we leave it all behind and sing

One more song

Oh won?t you stay just a little bit longer

Please, please, please say you will

Say you will

Oh won?t you stay just a little bit longer

Oh please, please stay just a little bit more

Now the promoter don?t mind

And the roadies don?t mind

If we take a little time

And we leave this all behind and sing

One more song

All Along the Watchtower


Jimi fukking Hendrix

There must be some kind of way out of here

Said the joker to the thief

Theres too much confusion

I can't get no relief

Businessman they drink my wine

Plow men dig my earth

None will level on the line

Nobody of it is worth

Hey hey

No reason to get excited

The thief he kindly spoke

There are many here among us

Who feel that life is but a joke but uh

But you and I weve been through that

And this is not our fate

So let us not talk falsely now

The hours getting late

Hey

Hey

All along the watchtower

Princes kept the view

While all the women came and went

Bare-foot servants to, but huh

Outside in the cold distance

A wild cat did growl

Two riders were approachin

And the wind began to howl

Hey

Oh

All along the watchtower

Hear you sing around the watch

Gotta beware gotta beware I will

Yeah

Ooh baby

All along the watchtower

Voodoo Chile


Jimi ****** Hendrix

Well, I stand up next to a mountain

And I chop it down with the edge of my hand.

Well, I stand up next to a mountain,

Chop it down with the edge of my hand.

Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island,

Might even raise just a little sand.

cause I'm a voodoo chile,

Lord knows Im a voodoo chile, baby.

I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time,

I'll give it right back to you one of these days.

I said I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time,

I'll give it right back one of these days.

And if I dont meet you no more in this world

Then I'll, I'll meet you in the next one and don't be late, don't be late.

cause I'm a voodoo chile, voodoo chile,

Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile, hey hey hey.

I'm a voodoo chile, baby.

Little Wing


Jimi

Well she's walking through the clouds

With a circus mind thats running round

Butterflies and zebras

And moonbeams and fairy tales

That's all she ever thinks about

Riding with the wind.

When I'm sad, she comes to me

With a thousand smiles, she gives to me free

It's alright she says its alright

Take anything you want from me, anything


Anything.

Fly on little wing,

Yeah yeah, yeah, little wing

True Love


Pat Benatar

Never been no fragile flower

I always got too much to say

Never had much luck with love and romance

I guess it's always been that way

But I've been seriously thinking

About slippin' on the velvet gloves

I know it's strange but my lucks about to change

Cause what we got here is True love, yeh, yeh

True Love, you can't buy it - no, no

You know it ain't like nothin' else

True Love, you really ought to try it

You owe it to yourself to get ya some - True Love

You know I wake up every morning

It's the first thing on my mind

This is a permanent condition, of the most serious kind

Now let me tell you baby

That you were sent from up above

Give me a sign - let's not waste any more time

Cause what we got here is True love, yeh, yeh

I called the man at the video store and I said

Cancel my membership, I won't be needing it no more

Found something else to occupy my nights

And baby it's just the right

Amount of True Love

I called the man at the video store and I said

Cancel my membership, I won't be needing it no more

Found something else to occupy my nights

And baby it's just the right

Amount of True Love, True Love - Yeh

Everybody wants it, everybody needs True Love

Don't give me none of that bad love

I gotta have good love

True Love - yeah - true Love - Ohh

Ummm...

True Love

Serenity


Godsmack

As I sit here and slowly close my eyes

I take another deep breath

And feel the wind pass through my body

I'm the one in your soul

Reflecting in the light

Protect the ones who hold you

Cradling your inner child

I need serenity

In a place where I can hide

I need serenity

Nothing changes, days go by

Where do we go when we just don't know

And how do we relight the flame when it's cold

Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing

And when will we learn to control

Tragic visions slowly stole my life

Tore away everything

Cheating me out of my time

I'm the one who loves you

No matter wrong or right

And every day I hold you

I hold you with my inner child

I need serenity

In a place where I can hide

I need serenity

Nothing changes, days go by

Where do we go when we just don't know

And how do we relight the flame when it's cold

Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing

And when will we learn to control

Where do we go when we just don't know

And how do we relight the flame when it's cold

Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing

And when will we learn to control

I need serenity

Crazy


Pat Benatar

People like to shake you up and put you down

Run you all around, drive you crazy

Like to steal the roses right out of your bed

Get inside your head, drive you crazy

Never really knew what love could be, yeh

Never really thought about you and me, yeh

Crazy - I really wanna go crazy

Feel like I'm gonna go crazy

Crazy - I really wanna go crazy

Feel like I'm gonna go crazy

Everybody tells you how you ought to be

What they think they see, they can't teach you, no

Big world on your shoulder, it don't mean a thing

If that song they sing, hey - don't reach you

Never really knew what love could be, yeh

Only want to think about you and me, yeh

Crazy - I really wanna go crazy

Feel like I'm gonna go crazy

Crazy - I really wanna go crazy

Feel like I'm gonna go crazy

Crazy, Crazy

Hey Baby, Baby, oh, oh, oh

Crazy, Crazy, Crazy

Crazy - I really wanna go crazy

Feel like I'm gonna go crazy

Feel like I'm gonna go crazy

Crazy - feel like I'm gonna go crazy

Girl I wanna lay you down


Jack Johnson

I come over early in the morning

I'm like a heat wave, without warning

And when I touch you I can feel your heart flutter

I'm smooth and creamy like peanut butter

Girl I wanna lay you down

(I said) girl I wanna lay you down

Take it away Zach

I'm gonna flood you, like a love river

Awe baby the post man, is about to deliver

Cook you up some dinner, a little pasta

Listen to some music, a little rasta

I said girl I wanna lay you down, oooohhh

I said girl I wanna lay you down, everybody sing it

Aweee, I said girl I wanna lay you down

(I said) girl I wanna lay you down

Girl I wanna lay you down

Girl I wanna lay you down

Girl I wanna lay you down

Girl I wanna lay you down

Girl I wanna lay you down

Bubble Toes


Jack Johnson

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that her eyes are as big

as her bubbly toes

on the feet of a queen of the hearts of the cards and her feet are all

covered with tar ***** and scars

It's as common as something that nobody knows that her beauty will

follow wherever she goes

up the hill in the back of her house in the would she love me forever,

I know she could

I remember when you and me mmm how we used to be just good friends

Wouldn't give me none

But all I wanted was some

She's got a whole lot of reasons

She cant think of a single one

That can justify leaving

and he got none but he thinks he got so many problems

Man he got, too much time to waste

His dreams are like commercials

But her dreams are picture perfect and

Our dreams are so related though they're often underestimated

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that

Her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes

On the feet of the queen of the hearts of the cards

And her feet are infested with tar ***** and

La da da da da da

Well I was eating lunch at the D. L. G.

When this little girl came and she sat next to me

I never seen nobody move the way she did

Well she did and she does and she'll do it again

When you move like a jellyfish

Rhythm don't mean nothing

You go with the flow

You don't stop

Move like a jellyfish

Rhythm is nothing

You go with the flow

You don't stop

It's as common as something that nobody knows it

Her beauty will follow wherever she goes

Up the hill in the back of her house in the wood

She'll love me forever, I know she

If you would only listen

You might just realize what you're missing

You're missing me

If you would only listen

You might just realize what you're missing

You're missing me

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that

Her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes

On the feet of the queen of the hearts of the cards

And her feet are infested with tar ***** and

Nice game to play...

Upside Down


Jack Johnson

Who's to say

What's impossible

Well they forgot

This world keeps spinning

And with each new day

I can feel a change in everything

And as the surface breaks reflections fade

But in some ways they remain the same

And as my mind begins to spread its wings

There's no stoppin' curiosity

I wanna turn the whole thing upside down

I'll find the things they say just can't be found

I'll share this love I find with everyone

We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's song

I don't want this feeling to go away

Who's to say

I can't do everything

Well I can try

And as I roll along I begin to find

Things aren't always just what they seem

I wanna turn the whole thing upside down

I'll find the things they say just can't be found

I'll share this love I find with everyone

We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's song

This world keeps spinning and there's no time to waste

Will it all keep spinning and spinning round and round and

Upside down

Who's to say whats impossible and can't be found

I don't want this feeling to go away

Please Don't go away

Please Don't go away

Please don't go away

is this how it's supposed to be

is this how it's supposed to be

Sitting, Waiting, Wishing


Jack Johnson

Now I was sitting waiting wishing

That you believed in superstitions

Then maybe you'd see the signs

But Lord knows that this world is cruel

And I ain't the Lord, no I'm just a fool

Learning loving somebody don't make them love you

Must I always be waiting waiting on you?

Must I always be playing playing your fool?

I sing ya songs I dance a dance

I gave ya friends all a chance

Putting up with them wasn't worth never having you

And maybe you been through this before

But its my first time

So please ignore

The next few lines cause they're directed at you

I cant always be waiting waiting on you

I cant always be playing playing your fool

I keep playing your part

But its not my scene

Wont this plot not twist?

I've had enough mystery.

Keep building me up, then shooting me down

Well I'm already down

Just wait a minute

Just sitting waiting

Just wait a minute

Just sitting waiting

Well if I was in your position

I'd put down all my ammunition

I'd wondered why'd it taken me so long

But Lord knows that I'm not you

And If I was I wouldn't be so cruel

Cause waiting on love ain't so easy to do

Must I always be waiting waiting on you?

Must I always be playing playing your fool?

No I cant always be waiting waiting on you

I cant always be playing playing your fool, foool

Burnin' Sky


Bad Company

The sky is burnin'

I believe my soul's on fire

You are, I'm learning the key to my desire

Waiting for the van to a ride

The prisoners were lined up outside

Jumped a wall, hitched a ride and now I'm here to stay

Love you baby anyway

The sky is burnin'

I believe my soul's on fire

You are, I'm learning the key to my desire

Run across the country fields in all the rain

They had guns and dogs and everything

Swama river tryin' to lose my trail

But they caught me under the bridge oh yeah

The sky is burnin'

I believe my soul's on fire

You are, I'm learning the key to my desire, oh yeah

The judge said this man's a danger to humanity

We're gonna lock him up and throw away the key

Now baby, your love has sent me to jail

But I'd rather die than see you with another man

Yeah it's burnin' babe

I believe my soul's on fire

Working on the railroad every day

But they can't keep me here

And I'm not gonna stay

I got to get outta this place

Out to see you baby

Yeah it's burnin' babe

Oh, burnin'

I believe my soul's on fire

Oh, burnin'

Ah, yeah, ah oh ...

Times like These


Jack Johnson

In times like these

In times like those

What will be will be

And so it goes

And it always goes on and on...

On and on it goes

And there has always been laughing, crying, birth, and dying

Boys and girls with hearts that take and give and break

And heal and grow and recreate and raise and nurture

But then hurt from time to time like these

And times like those

And what will be will be

And so it goes

And there will always be stop and go and fast and slow

Action, reaction, sticks and stones and broken bones

Those for peace and those for war

And *** bless these ones, not those ones

But these ones made times like these

And times like those

What will be will be

And so it goes

And it always goes on and on...

On and on it goes

But somehow I know it won't be the same

Somehow I know it will never be the same.

Better Together


Jack Johnson

There's no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard

no song that I could sing but I could try for your heart

our dreams they are made out of real things

like a shoebox, a photograph, a sepia tone lovin

love is the answer there is for most of the question of my heart

like why are we here and where do we go and how come it's so hard

it's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving

I'll tell you one thing it's always better when we're together

mmh it's always better when we together

yeah we'll look at the stars when we're together

well it's always better when we're together

yeah it's always better when we together

and all of these moments just might find a way into my dreams tonight

but I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings

it brings new things for tomorrow night you see

that they'll be gone too too many things I have to do

but if all of those dreams might find a way into my day to day scene

I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between

with only two just me and you not so many things we got to do

or places we got to be

we sit beneath the mango tree now

yeah it's always when we're together

somewhere in between together

yeah it's always better when we're together

yeah it's always better when we're together

I believe in memories

they look so pretty when I sleep

and I .. and when I wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to me

but there is not enough time

there is no.. no song I could sing

there is no combination of words I could say

but I will still tell you one thing

we're better together

Figured you out


Nickleback

I like your pants around your feet

I like the dirt that's on your knees

I like the way you still say please

While you're looking up at me

You're like my favourite **** disease

I love the places that we go

I love the people that you know

I love the way you can't say no

Too many long lines in a row

I love the powder on your nose

And now I know who you are

It wasn't that hard

Just to figure you out

And now I know who you are

It wasn't that hard

Just to figure you out

I like the freckles on your chest

I like the way you like me best

I like the way you're not impressed

While you put me to the test

I like the wine stains on your dress

I love the way you pass the check

I love the good times that you wreck

I love your lack of self respect

While you're passed out on the deck

I love my hands around your neck

And now I know who you are

It wasn't that hard

Just to figure you out

And now I know who you are

It wasn't that hard

Just to figure you out

I like your pants around your feet

I like the dirt that's on your knees

I like the way you still say please

While you're looking up at me

You're like my favourite **** disease

I hate the places that we go

I hate the people that you know

I hate the way you can't say no

Feelin' way too **** good


Nickleback

I missed you so much

That I begged you to fly and see me

You must've broke down

Coz you finally said that you would

But now that you're here

I just feel like I'm constantly dreaming

Coz something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feelin' way too **** good

For 48 hours I don't think that we left my hotel room

Should show you the sights

Coz I'm sure that I said that I would

We gotta make love just one last time in the shower

Well something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feelin' way too **** good

And it's like, every time I turn around

I fall in love and find my heart face down and

Where it lands is where it should

This time it's like

The two of us should probably start to fight

Coz something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feeling way too **** good, oh

Feelin' way too **** good

Sometimes I think best if left in the memory

It's better kept inside than left for good

Lookin' back each time they tried to tell me

Well something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feelin' way too **** good

And it's like, every time I turn around

I fall in love and find my heart face down and

Where it lands is where it should

This time it's like

The two of us should probably start to fight

Coz something's gotta go wrong

Coz I'm feeling way too **** good, oh

Feelin' way too **** good

Oh, oh, feelin' way too **** good

I missed you so much

That I begged you to fly and see me

You must've broke down

Coz you finally said that you would

But now that you're here

I just feel like I'm constantly dreaming

Coz something's gotta go wrong

How You remind Me


Nickleback

Never made it as a wise man

I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'

Tired of livin' like a blind man

I'm sick inside without a sense of feelin

And this is how you remind me

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry

I was waiting on a different story

This time I'm mistaken

For handing you a heart worth breakin'

I've been wrong, I've been down

To the bottom of every bottle

Despite words in my head

Scream "Are we having fun yet?"

Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no

It's not like you didn't know that

I said I love you and I swear I still do

It must have been so bad

Cause living with me must have **** near killed you

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry

I was waiting on a different story

This time I'm mistaken

For handing you a heart worth breakin'

I've been wrong, I've been down

To the bottom of every bottle

Despite words in my head

Scream "Are we having fun yet?"

Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no

Never made is as a wise man

I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing

And this is how you remind me

This is how you remind me

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

This is how you remind me

Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry

I was waiting on a different story

This time I'm mistaken

For handing you a heart worth breakin'

I've been wrong, I've been down

To the bottom of every bottle

Despite words in my head

Scream "Are we having fun yet?"

Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no

December


Collective Soul

Why drink the water from my hand?

Contagious as you think I am

Just tilt my sun towards your domain.

Your cup runneth over again.

Dont scream about

Dont think aloud

Turn your head now baby

Just spit me out

Dont worry about

Dont speak of doubt

Turn your head now baby

Just spit me out

Why follow me to higher ground?

Lost as you swear I am.

Dont throw away your basic needs,

Ambiance and vanity.

December promice you have unto me

December whispers of treachery

December clouds are now covering me

December songs no longer I sing

Banana Pancakes


Jack Johnson

Can't you see that it's just rainin

There ain't no need to go outside

But baby

You hardly even notice

When I try to show you this

Song it’s meant to keep you

From doin' what you're supposed to

Wakin' up too early

Maybe we could sleep in

I’ll make you banana pancakes

Pretend like its the weekend now

We could pretend it all the time

Can't you see that it's just rainin'

There ain't no need to go outside

Just maybe

Hala ka ukulele

mama made a baby

Really dont mind the practice

Cuz you're my little lady

Lady lady love me

Cause I love to lay you lazy

We could close the curtains

Pretend like there's no work outside

We could pretend that all the time

And can't you see that it's just rainin'

There ain't no need to go outside

ain't no need ain't no need

mmmh mmmh mmh

can't you see can't you see

rain all day and I don't mind

But the telephone's singing ringing, its too early dont pick it up

We dont need to

We got everything we need right here

And everything we need is enough

It’s just so easy

when the whole world fits inside of your arms

do we really need to pay attention to the alarm

wake up slow

mmhm wake up slow

but baby, You hardly even notice

When I try to show you this

Song it’s meant to keep you

From doing what you’re supposed to

Wakin' up too early

Maybe we could sleep in

I’ll make you banana pancakes

Pretend like it's the weekend now

We could pretend that all the time

Can't you see that it's just rainin'

There ain't no need to go outside

Ain't no need, ain't no need

Rain all day and I really really really don’t mind

Can't you see?, cant you see?

We gotta wake up slow

Dandelion


Chris Cornell

Settle down now and sit with me

Let me tell you how this all came to be

A yellow flower with your pedals to the air

And flying on paper wings that brought you here

Summer rolls on in the lazy hours

An ether dream way

Of hummingbirds and clouds

Midnight swims in the cool back waves

And you in my arms as it rolls away

Little dandelion

Let your heart keep time

Now the clouds are gone

All of your tomorrows shine

Oh oh

All of your tomorrows shine

Oh oh

All of your tomorrows shine

Born of restless night the moon as a pearl

Playing games down inside your soft warm world

Hear my voice I know that you can

You're the fire in my eyes

The sun as a man

Seasons come along and seasons go

And what they'll leave behind

I don't pretend to know

I'm afraid that all I have missed

Will loom very large when the darkness lifts

Little dandelion

Let your heart keep time

Now the clouds are gone

All of your tomorrows shine

All of your tomorrows shine

All of your tomorrows shine

I will ride by your side

Wherever you go

I won't run I won't hide

Just letting you know

Little dandelion

Let your heart keep time

Now the clouds are gone

All of your tomorrows shine

All of your tomorrows shine

All of your tomorrows shine

All of your tomorrows shine

All of your tomorrows shine

All of your tomorrows shine
