Em              G                      D
Every day I wake up and it's Sunday

Whatever's in my eye wont go away
The radio is playing all the usual
And what's a wonderwall anyway

                   G           D                      G                        D
Because my inside is outside.........My right side's on the left side
                   C             G            /F#          Em               Em/D#
Because I'm writing to reach you now but I ..might never reach you
Em/D            A                     Am                  D7
Only want to teach you..... About you ....But that's not you

It's good to know that you all know I'm hurting
It's good to know that you are doing well
It's good to know that you all know I'm hurting
It's good to know I'm feeling not so well

                   G           D                      G                        D
Because my inside is outside.........My right side's on the left side
                   C             G            /F#          Em               Em/D#
Because I'm writing to reach you now but I ..might never reach you
Em/D            A                     Am                  D7
Only want to teach you..... About you ....But that's not you
            Am                         D7
Do you know its true ....But that wont do

(SOLO)

Maybe then tomorrow will be Monday
And whatever's in my eye should go away
But still the radio is playing all the usual
And what's a wonderwall anyway

                   G           D                      G                        D
Because my inside is outside.........My right side's on the left side
                   C             G            /F#          Em               Em/D#
Because I'm writing to reach you now but I ..might never reach you
Em/D            A                     Am                  D7
Only want to teach you..... About you ....But that's not you
            Am                         D7
Do you know its true ....But that wont do
And you know it's you......I'm talking to.......

"DRIFTWOOD"
(F. Healy)
 
KOMMENTAR : Brug capo på syvende bånd
INTRO : Em - G - D
VERS :  D -  G - A   + A7
BRIDGE : Em - A -D -A - Em - G
OMKVÆD : D - A - Em - G
D                       G                  A
everything is open .......nothing is set in stone

rivers turn to ocean......... oceans tide you home
home is where the heart is.....but your heart had to roam
drifting over bridges ....never to return
A7
watching bridges burn

             D                   A                        Em
you're driftwood floating underwater
                           G
breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces
        D                  A                          Em
just driftwood hollow and of no use
                            G
waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you

nobody is an island......everyone has to go
pillars turn to butter .......butterflying low
low is where your heart is .........but your heart has to go
drifting under bridges .........never with the flow

(Bridge)
                 Em                                               A
and you really didn't think it would happen
           Em                                               A
but it really is the end of the line
             D          A                                   Em
so I'm sorry that you turned to driftwood
                       G                                           D
but you've been drifting for a long, long time

(Mellemspil)

everywhere there's trouble.......nowhere's safe to go
pushes turn to shovels.......shoveling the snow
frozen you have chosen ........the path you wish to go
drifting now forever........and forever more
until you reach your shore

you're driftwood floating underwater
breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces
just driftwood hollow and of no use
waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you

and you really didn't think it would happen
but it it really is the end of the line
so I'm sorry that you turned to driftwood
but you've been drifting for a long, long time
you've been drifting for a long, long time
you've been drifting for a long, long time
drifting for a long, long time

VERS :   D - Bm - G - A -

OMKVÆD : D - C

D                             Bm
I can't sleep tonight ......everybody's saying everything is alright
D                                   Bm                                                                 G
still I can't close my eyes .....I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all of these lights
          A       G                              A
sunny days...........where have you gone?
  G        /F#         Em                A
I get the strangest feeling you belong

chorus
D                               Am
....why does it always rain on me?
G
is it because I lied when I was seventeen?
why does it always rain on me?
even when the sun is shinning I can't avoid the lightning

I can't stand myself
I'm being held up by invisible men
still life on a shelf when
I've got my mind on something else
sunny days, oh where have you
gone
I get the strangest feeling you
belong

why does it always rain on me?
is it because I lied when I was
seventeen?
why does it always rain on me?
even when the sun is shinning I
can't avoid the lightning

middle eight
oh where did the blue sky go?
oh why is it raining so?
it's so cold

repeat 1st verse and chorus

oh where did the blue sky go? oh
why is it raining so?
it's so cold

why does it always rain on me?
is it because I lied when I was
seventeen?
why does it always rain on me?
even when the sun is shinning I
can't avoid the lightning
why does it always rain on me?
why does it always rain on

INTRO :  G - G/F# - Em - C -D - Em/D - G7 -A7
VERS :
OMKVÆD :
 
we're tied to the 90's

in the middle
I'm terribly frightened
I'm takin' it fast
takin' it slow
there's thunder and lightning
it's terribly frightening
lord knows
where it goes
but I know
that if so
well I want to tell you
we're tired of the 90's
we're tired of the 90's
but we're tied to the 90's
tied to the 90's

remember the 80's?
(they were something)
were worse than the 90's
we're stuck in a path
where fashion is fast
and nothin' is lasting
its all ghetto blasting
and Lord knows
where it goes
but I know
that if so well I want to tell you
we're tired of the 90's
we're tired of the 90's
but we're tied to the 90's
tied to the 90's

[middle 8]
ah oh no
it's nothing to go on
the hifi five alive
that's it I'm stayin' in bed
'til my hair falls out
everything's over
That said I like my wig
and I hate myself
I know its all in my head
we're tired of the 90's (x3)
but we're tied to the 90's
oh we're tied to the 90's
we're tied to the 90's
we're tied to the nines
tied to the nines
tied to the 90's

"MORE THAN US"
(F. Healy)
 
KOMMENTAR : Brug capo på tredje bånd.
INTRO : C - F - G7 - Fm - E - Am - D - Dm
 
More than us

And we are them
But they don't know
What's in their hands
It's more than you
And it's more than I
But it's more
And everybody calls it love
But I'm not really sure if it's love
At all
Not anymore
More than he
More that she
They all sleep
But we just dream
More or less
Means more for us
But it's more
And everybody wants a hand
But I'm too busy holding up the
world
To carry on
No not anymore
I wish that I
Could fly, fly, fly away
And if I should fall
And you hear me call
Would you stay
More than us
And we are them
But they don't know
What's in our heads
It's more than you
And it's more than I
But it's more
And everybody calls it love
ButI'm not really sure if this is love
At all
Not anymore
Anymore
Anymore

C - G - A - Em - F#m
 

I want to see what people saw
I want to feel like I felt before
I want to see the kingdom come
I want to feel forever young
 
I want to sing
To sing my song
I want to live in a world where I belong
I want to live I will survive
And I believe that it won't be very long

If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn

So where's the stars?
Up in the sky And what's the moon?
A big balloon?
We'll never know unless we grow
There's so much world outside the door
I want to sing
To sing my song
I want to live in a world where I'll be strong
I want to live I will survive
And I believe that it won't be very long

If we turn, turn, turn, turn
And if we turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn
Turn, turn, turn, turn Turn, turn, turn
And if we turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn
Learn to turn

Tilbageeeeee !
