Lyrics

Simon & Garfunkel

Let us be lovers, we’ll marry our fortunes together
I’ve got some real estate here in my bag
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner’s pies
And we walked off to look for America

C walkdown to F / C down Am —-/ Em A (2x) / D C G C down Am

Cathy, I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
Michigan seems like a dream to me now
It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw
I’ve gone to look for America

/ “ / “ / G – – – / D G D Cmaj7 –C

Laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
I said, be careful, his bow-tie is really a camera

Bb —- C —-/ / F—-C—- Am6 —-Fmaj7

Toss me a cigarette, I think there’s one in my raincoat
So I looked at the scenery, She read her magazine
And the moon rose over an open field

Cathy, I’m lost, I said though I knew she was sleeping
And I’m empty and aching and I don’t know why
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
They’ve all come to look for America
All come to look for America
All come to look for America

John Prine

I am an old woman named after my mother.
My old man is another child that’s grown old.
If dreams were thunder and lightning was desire
this old house would’ve burnt down a long time ago.

G C G D / G C D G

Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery.
Make me a poster of an old rodeo.
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to.
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go.

G F C G / — F C G

When I was a young girl I had me a cowboy,
wa’n’t much to look at, just a free ramblin’ man.
But that was a long time, and no matter how I try,
the years just flow by like a broken-down dam.

E A E A / E A D E / / /

Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery.
Make me a poster of an old rodeo.
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to.
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go.

There’s flies in the kitchen, I can hear all their buzzin’
but I ain’t done nothin’ since I woke up today.
I am kind of person goes to work in the morning
Come home in the evenin’ and have nothin’ to say.

Chours

To believe in this living is just a hard way to go.

Freddy Mercury

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I’m just a poor boy (Poor boy)
I need no sympathy
Because I’m easy come, easy go
Little high, little low
Any way the wind blows
Doesn’t really matter to me, to me

Mama just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he’s dead
Mama, life has just begun
But now I’ve gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooh
Didn’t mean to make you cry
If I’m not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters

Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body’s aching all the time
Goodbye, everybody
I’ve got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, oooooooh (Anyway the wind blows)
I don’t want to die
Sometimes wish I’d never been born at all

[Guitar Solo]
I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouch, Scaramouch, will you do the Fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening me
(Galileo) Galileo (Galileo) Galileo, Galileo Figaro   Magnifico-o-o-o-o

I’m just a poor boy nobody loves me
He’s just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity

Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go
Let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go
Let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go
Let me go (Will not let you go)
Let me go (Will not let you go) (Never, never, never, never)
Let me go, o, o, o, o
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
(Oh mama mia, mama mia) Mama Mia, let me go
Beelzebub has the devil put aside for me, for me, for me!

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to die
Oh, baby, can’t do this to me, baby
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here

[Guitar Solo]
(Oooh yeah, Oooh yeah)

Nothing really matters
Anyone can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me

Any way the wind blows…

Oh, Its crying time again, you’re gonna leave me
I can see that far away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darling
That it won’t be long before it’s crying time

Oh, they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder
And that tears are only rain to make love grow
But my love couldn’t get much stronger
If I livae to be thousand years old

Oh, you say that you found someone you loved better
That’s the way it happens every time before.
And as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow,
Crying time will start when you walk out the door.

The Eagles

Desperado, why don’t you come to your senses?
You been out ridin fences for so long now.
Oh, your a hard one, I know you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin you can hurt you somehow.

D D7 G Em / D Bm E A / D D7 G Em / D Bm A D

Don’t you draw the queen of diamonds boy,
She’ll beat you if she’s able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
Now it seems to me some fine things
Have been laid upon your table,
But you only want the ones you can’t get

G A / D — / Bm Em D — / G A / D Bm / E – A –

Desperado, oh you aint gettin no younger,
Your pain and your hunger, they’re drivin’ you home
And freedom, well, that’s just some people talkin’
Your prison is walkin’ through this world all alone

Don’t your feet get cold in winter time,
The sky won’t snow and the sun won’t shine
It’s hard to tellt he night time from the day
You’re losin’ all you highs and lows
Ain’t it funny how the feelin’ goes / Away

Desperado, why dont you come to your senses
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin’, but there’s a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you, (3x’s)
You better let somebody love you, before its’ too late

You got to change your evil ways, baby
Before I stop loving you
You got to change, baby
And every word that I say is true

You’ve got me runnin’ an’ hidin’ all over town
You’ve got me sneakin’ an’ a’peepin’ and runnin’ you down
This can’t go on, Lord knows you got to change, baby

Baby, when I come home, baby
My house is dark and my pots are cold
You hangin’ ’round, baby
With Jean and Joan and a who knows who

I’m getting tired of waitin’ and foolin’ around
I’ll find somebody, that won’t make me feel like a clown
This can’t go on, Lord knows you got to change

When I come home, baby
My house is dark and my pots are cold
You hangin’ ’round, baby
With Jean and Joan and a who knows who

I’m gettin’ tired of waitin’ and foolin’ around
I’ll find somebody, that won’t make me feel like a clown
This can’t go on, yeah yeah yeah

Freight train, Freight train, goin’ so fast,
Freight train, Freight train, goin’ so fast,
Please don’t tell what train I’m on
So they won’t know where I’m gone.

C G7 / — C / E7 F / C G7 C

Freight train, Freight train, goin’ round the bend,
Freight train, Freight train, comin’ back again,
One of these days turn that train around
And go back to my home town.

One more place I’d like to be,
One more place I’d lie to see,
To watch them old Blue Ridge Mountains climb,
When I ride old number nine.

When I die Lord, Bury me deep,
Down at the end of Chestnut street,
Where I can hear old number nine
As she comes down the line.

Freight train, Freight train, goin’ so fast,
Freight train, Freight train, goin’ so fast,
Please don’t tell what train I’m on
So they won’t know where I’m gone.

Friend of the Devil – Grateful Dead

G C / G C

I lit up from Reno
I was trailed by twenty hounds
Didn’t get to sleep that night
Till the morning came around

G C / G C

Set out running but I’ll take my time
A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight

D / Am / D / Am D Hold then Intro

I ran into the Devil, babe
He loaned me twenty bills
I spent that night in Utah
In a cave up in the hills

I set out running but I take my time
A friend of the devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight

I ran down to the levee
But the Devil caught me there
He took my twenty dollar bill
And he vanished in the air

I set out running but I take my time
A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight

Got two reasons why I cry
Away each lonely night
The first one’s named sweet Anne Marie
And she’s my heart’s delight
Second one is prison, baby
The sheriff’s on my trail
And if he catches up with me
I’ll spend my life in jail

D / C / D / C D then intro

Got a wife in Chino, babe
And one in Cherokee
First one says she’s got my child
But it don’t look like me

I set out running but I take my time
A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight

Got two reasons why I cry
Away each lonely night
The first one’s named sweet Anne Marie
And she’s my heart’s delight
Second one is prison, baby
The sheriff’s on my trail
And if he catches up with me
I’ll spend my life in jail

Got a wife in Chino, babe
The one in Cherokee
The first one says she’s got my child
But it don’t look like me

I set out running but I took my time
A friend of the Devil is a friend of mine
If I get home before daylight
I just might get some sleep tonight

HOMEBOUND

I’m sitting here in isolation,
Waiting for the vaccination, oooo
Stock market’s down, the stores are closed, retirement plans are surely hosed.
Toilet paper is running low.
It’s a good thing I don’t have to go.

G – Bm -/ Dm E – / Am -F- / G – D – /

We’re all homebound.
How long will we, still be homebound?
Home, keeping social distance.
Home, without friends’ assistance.
Home, at government’s insistence.
We’re stuck in our houses.

I’m getting used to sleeping late,
Should clean the house, but it can wait, ooo
I try to work from my PC, but soon the fridge is calling me,
I eat some snacks, turn on TV.
Without Netflix what would life be?

We’re all homebound.
How long will we, still be homebound?
Home, til the virus dies out.
Home, til the groceries run out.
Home, til the wines all drunk.
We’re stuck in our houses.

G – C – / / G Am7 G Am7 / G Am7 D G

So please just stay in your own space,
Don’t shave so you don’t touch your face, ooo
Wash your hands until they’re raw, for 20 seconds, that’s the law.
The curve will flatten, we’ll have seen, the ending to COVID-19.

We’re all homebound.
How long will we, still be homebound?
Home, til the virus dies out
Home, til the groceries run out
Home, til the wines all drunk
And we have defeated
Coronavirus.

Lines form on my face and hands
Lines form from the ups and downs
I’m in the middle without any plans
I’m a boy and I’m a man

I’m eighteen
And I don’t know what I want
Eighteen
I just don’t know what I want
Eighteen
I gotta get away
I gotta get out of this place
I’ll go runnin in outer space
Oh yeah

I got a
Baby’s brain and an old man’s heart
Took eighteen years to get this far
Don’t always know what I’m talkin’ about
Feels like I’m livin in the middle of doubt
Cause I’m

Eighteen
I get confused every day
Eighteen
I just don’t know what to say
Eighteen
I gotta get away

Lines form on my face and my hands
Lines form on the left and right
I’m in the middle
The middle of life
I’m a boy and I’m a man
I’m eighteen and I like it

Yes I like it
Oh I like it
Love it
Like it
Love it
Eighteen!
Eighteen!

Eighteen and I like it

There are places I remember
All my life, those some have changed
Some for ever, not for better
Some have gone and some have changed
All these places had there moments
With lovers and friends, I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living,
In my life, I’ve love them all.

D Fm Bm D / G Gm D / 2x Bm E / G Gm C / 2x

or one capo an play in C

C Em Am C / F Fm C / 2x Am D/ F Fm C / 2x

But for all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you,
And these memories have their meaning,
When I think of love as something new,
Though I know I’ll never lose affection,
For people and things I can’t recall,
And I know I’ll often stop and think about your,
In my life, I’ll love them all

Though I know I’ll never lose affection,
For people and things I can’t recall,
And I know I’ll often stop and think about your,
In my life, I’ll love them all,
In my life, I’ll love then all.

Where we just meet. She’s just the girl for me
And want all the world to see We’ve met, mmm-mmm-mmm-m’mmm-mmm.

Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling, Me back again

Had it been another day
I might have looked the other way
And I’d have never been aware.
But as it is I’ll dream of her Tonight, di-di-di-di’n’di.

I have never known The likes of this,
I’ve been alone And I have missed things And kept out of sight
But other girls were never quite Like this,

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

And when the broken-hearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be

C Dm F G

I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes

Well, love is all around me, and so the feeling grows It’s written on the wind it’s everywhere I go

So if you really love me come on and let it show

Chorus: F G F C

You know I love you, I always will My mind’s made up by the way that I feel There’s no beginning, there’ll be no end Coz on my love you can depend

I see your face before me as I lay on my bed

I kindly get the thinking of all the things you said

You gave your promise to me and I gave mine to you

I need someone beside me in everything I do

Chorus

It’s written on the wind it’s everywhere I go

So if you really love me come on and let it show

Come on and let it show

Come on and let it show

Come on and let it show

Come on and let it show.

Garcia / Hunter

If my words did glow, with the gold of sunshine
And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung,
Would you hear my voice, come thru the music?
Would you hold it near as it were your own?

G – C – / – – – G / – – C – / G D C G

It’s a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken;
Perhaps they’re better left unsung.
I don’t know, don’t really care.
Let there be songs to fill the air.

Ripple in still water, when there is no pebble tossed,
Nor wind to blow.

Am – D – / G C A D

Reach out your hand if your cup be empty
If your cup is full may it be again.
Let it be known there is a fountain
That was not made by the hands of men.

There is a road, no simple highway,
Between the dawn and the dark of night,
And if you go, no one may follow,
That path is for your steps alone.

Ripple in still water, when there is no pebble tossed,
Nor wind to blow.

You who choose to lead must follow,
But if you fall, you fall alone.
If you should stand, then who’s to guide you?
If I knew the way I would take you home.

La da da da da,

I looked over Jordan and what did i see?
Commin’ for to carry me home
There was a band of angels, a-commin after me
Commin’ for to carry me home

D – G D / – – A – / D D7 G D / – A D –

Swing low, sweet chariot
Commin’ for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Commin’ for to carry me home

I’m sometimes up, and i’m sometimes down
Comin’ for to carry me home
But but i know my soul is heavenly bound
Comin’ for to carry me home

If you get there before I do
Comin’ for to carry me home
Tell all my friends that I’m a-comin’ too
Comin’ for to carry me home

This land is your land this land is my land

From the California to the New York Island

Form the redwood forest to the gulf stream waters

This land was made for you and me

F C /G C / F C / G C

As I was walking, that ribbon of highway

I saw above me that endless sky way

I saw below me the golden valley

This land was made for you and me

I roamed and rambled, and followed my foot steps

to the sparkling sand of her diamond deserts

And all around me a voice was sounding

This land was made for you and me

When the sun comes shining, and I was strolling

And the wheat fields waving, and the dust clouds rolling

The voice was chatting and the fog was lifting

This land was made for you and me

I’m just waiting for you
I’m just waiting for you
I’m on Facebook live, and I know what I’m gonna do,
I’m just waiting for you.

C / F C / F C / Am G C

Its’ been a long time since I’ve seen you
Where does the time go
I know that in my heart, you’ll always be there
Everywhere I go

Old Crow Medicine Show

Well my friend, I see your face so clearly
Little bit tired, little worn through the years
You sound nervous, you seem alone
I hardly recognize your voice on the telephone

C   E7  /  F   C  /  Am   G   G7/  C  E7  /  F   C   /  Am   G   F

In between I remember
Just before we wound up broken-down
We drive out to the edge of the highway
Follow that lonesome dead-end road sign south

(Chorus:)
We’re all in this thing together
Walkin’ the line between faith and fear
This life don’t last forever
When you cry I taste the salt in your tears

Come my friend, let’s put this thing together
And walk the path our worn out feet have trod
If you want, we could go on forever
Give up your jaded ways, spell your name to God

(Chorus)

All we are is a picture in a mirror
Fancy shoes to grace our feet
All there is is a slow road to freedom
Heaven above and the devil beneath

Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can’t let you slide thru my hands

Wild horses couldn’t drag me away
Wild wild horses couldn’t drag me away

I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you’ve decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or off stage lights
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

I know I’ve dreamed you a sin and a lie
I had my freedom but I don’t have much time
Let’s do some living after we die
Wild horses couldn’t drag me away
Wild wild horses we’ll ride them some day

Wild horses couldn’t drag me away
Wild wild horses we’ll ride them some day

You’re no good, you’re no good
You’re no good baby you’re no good

You’re no good, you’re no good
You’re no good baby you’re no good

Broke a heart, Gentle and true
Left a man, Over someone like you
I’ll beg his forgiveness, On bended knee
But I wouldn’t blame him, If he said to me

I’m tellin’ you now baby
That I’m going my way
Forget about you baby
‘Cause I’m leaving today

People stay just a little bit longer
We want to play, just a little bit longer

C Am F G

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 please stay
Just a little bit long

I bet promotors don’t mind
And the roadies don’t mind
If we take a little time
And we leave this all behind
Singing one more song
