I should have been cutting out my eyelids,
you'll never guess what baby did when she got home.
Oh-oh Na na na na na
but what they're trying to say,
(you're beautiful)
(for all your big mistakes)
(you stayed the same)
I was stranded in a border town
but between MTV and Mr. O'Reilly
Took one last look at the gold
as it shattered on a mountaintop
But what it's trying to play,
(you're beautiful)
(for all your big mistakes)
(you stayed the same)
and what they started to say
(you're beautiful)
(for all your big mistakes)
(you're beautiful)
for all my big mistakes.
for all my big mistakes.
for all my big mistakes.

[Abm] [C#m] [Abm]
[Abm] [C#m] [F#]
[B]   [Bbm6]
[Abm] [C#m] [F#]

As[Abm] I walk through the streets of my new c[C#m]ity
my [F#]back feeling much better, I sup[B]pose
[Bbm6]I've r[Abm]eclaimed the use of my im[C#m]agination
for [F#]better or for worse, I've yet to [B]know
[Bbm6]but I a[Abm]lways knew you'd be the one to un[C#m]derstand me,
I guess that's [F#]why it took so long to get things [B]rig[Bbm6]ht.
[Abm]Suddenly I'm lost
On my s[C#m]treet

On my block
Oh [F#]why, Oh why
Oh [B]why haven't you [E]been there for me?
Can't you [F#]see, I'm losing my [B]mind this [Bbm6]time?
[Abm]This time it's for [C#m]real, I can see

[F#]All the [Abm]trees are [Bbm]turning [C#m]red
The [F#]beggars [Abm]near [Bbm]bodegas [C#m]grin at[F#] me
[F#]I think [Abm]they want [Bbm]somethin[C#m]g
I [F#]close my[Abm] eyes, I t[Bbm]ell myse[C#m]lf to [F#]breathe

and be [B]calm.

Be calm.
I know you [E]feel like you are breaking [B]down.
Well I [Abm]know that it [C#m]gets so hard some[E]times.
Be [F#]calm.

I'[Abm]m scared that everyone is out to [C#m]get me.
"These [F#]days before you speak to me you[B] pa[Bbm6]use."
"I[Abm] always see you looking out your[C#m] window."
"Aft[F#]er all, you lost your band, you left your [B]mom[Bbm6]."
Now [Abm]every single crack, every [C#m]pain that I pass,
says [F#]I should either leave or pick it u[B]p  [Bbm6]
But [Abm]with every single buck I've made
I'm [C#m]saddled with bad luck that came
the [F#]moment I was baptized
or when I found out one day I'm gonna d[F#]ie
if [Abm]only I c[Bbm]ould [C#]find my p[F#]eople or[Abm] my place in[C#m] life
then[F#] when they[Abm] come t[Bb]o 'caroli[C#m]n'
so[F#] loud, so [Abm]bright, the[Bbm] theremi[C#m]n
will[F#] lead[Abm] us to [Bbm]a chorus
[C#m]where [F#]we'll al[Abm]l rejoice [Bbm]and sing a[C#m] song that[F#] goes:

Oh be [B]calm.

Be calm.
I know you [E]feel like you are breaking [B]down.
I [Abm]know that it [C#m]gets so hard some[E]times,
Be [F#]calm.
Take it from [B]me, I've been there a thousand [Ebm]times.
You hate your [Abm]pulse because it thinks you're still alive
and[Abm] e-v[Bbm]ery--[B]thing's w[C#m]rong
It just [E]gets so hard some[C#m]times
Be [F#]calm.

I [Abm]don't rem[F#]ember [Ebm]much that [C#m]night,
Just [B]walking, [F#]thinking [B]fondly o[F#]f y[F#]ou  [Ab]      [B]
T[Abm]hinking [F#]how the [Ebm]worst is [C#m]yet to [B]come
[F#]From that street [B]corner [F#]came a [B]song
And [B]I c[C#m]an't r[Ebm]ememb[E]er the man,
The[F#] panhandler or his [B]me[Bbm6]lody.
The [Abm]words ex[F#]changed had [Ebm]far ex[C#m]ceeded [F#]any change I'd given thee.

Oh be [B]calm.

Be calm.
I know you [E]feel like you are breaking [B]down.
I [Abm]know that it [C#m]gets so hard some[E]times,
Be [F#]calm.
Take it from [B]me, I've been there a thousand [Ebm]times.
You hate your [Abm]pulse because it thinks you're still alive
and[Abm] e-v[Bbm]ery-[B]-thing's[C#m] wrong
It just [E]gets so hard some[C#m]times
Be [F#]calm.
Be [Abm]calm.

[A]Last week my [D]baby hit the slopes.
I spent the weekend setting traps in the [A]road.

I should have been cutting out my eyelids,
                                               [D]     [riff]
you'll never guess what baby did when she got home.

Oh-oh Na na na na na
Now at [A]least the birds are singing to me,

but what they're trying to say,
I don't [G]know.

(you're beautiful)
I think they come from the [F#m]cold

(for all your big mistakes)
I think they come from the [G]cold

(you stayed the same)
to the city that don't [A]snow.

So I [D]drove until we both broke down.

I was stranded in a border town
believing the [A]motel TV would bring me to safety,

but between MTV and Mr. O'Reilly
I've come to [D]find, that I can't be defined
so I turned it [A]off, now convinced I would cross

Took one last look at the gold
                            [D]    [riff]
as it shattered on a mountaintop

[D]Now I b[A]elieve the sun, it's like a symphony.

But what it's trying to play,
I don't [G]know.

(you're beautiful)
I think they come from the [F#m]cold

(for all your big mistakes)
I think they come from the [G]cold

(you stayed the same)
to the city that don't [A]snow.

C'mon, [D]Hol[G]y g[A]hosts
When do you [D]come [G]out to p[A]lay?
'Cause if the [D]Lord is [G]gonna [A]find me,
He'd better start [G]looking [A]today.[D]

So I can [G]rise with the river [D]
We all f[G]loat before we s[D]ink
We pray for sat[G]ellites,
Pray for co[D]urtesy
I pray that [A]it can climb mountains to [G]me!
I say good[D]bye to the canyon[G].
I will [D]set sail to the s[G]treets
where I don't [D]care to be fo[G]rgiven  [A]
[A]I want to be for[G]gotten.
I don't c[D]are to be for[G]given
When Lord I [D]only want to be for[G]gotten!

Singing [D]oh oh oh [G]na na na
[D]Oh oh oh [G]
I'm Singing [D]oh oh oh [G]na na
[A]Oh-oh [G]Oh-oh

I'm Singing [D]oh oh oh [G]na na na
Singing [D]oh oh oh [G]
I'm Singing [D]oh oh oh [G]na na
[A]Oh-oh na na na [G]Oh-oh

Now I rec[A]eive a call from my family

and what they started to say
brought me [G]home.

(you're beautiful)
They think I'm beauti[F#m]ful

(for all your big mistakes)
They think I'm beautif[G]ul   [A]

(you're beautiful)
                         [D]  [riff]
for all my big mistakes.

for all my big mistakes.

for all my big mistakes.

All the pretty girls on a Saturday night.

So I [C]call your [G]name, cr[F]oss my fingers
[Am]uncross th[G]e others, [C]hesitate.
Oh I d[G]on't think straight with nothing to p[Dm]rove.  [G]
[F]I don't wanna say [F]I'm[A] le[G]aving
[F]I'l[G]l s[C]tay unt[G]il the wee[Am]kend.
And you can [F]take all the things;
[F]th[E]e [F]boxes and rings
and get [G]going.

'Cause I've been waiting for...

[C]All the pretty [G]girls on a [Am]Saturday n[G]ight.
Let it [C]be, and come to [G]me with the [Am]look in your [G]eyes.
Will you b[F]reak and [C]take all the [Dm]words from my [C]mouth?
I wish [F]all the pretty [C]girls were [Dm]shaking me [C]down.

So I [C]call you [G]out
[F]Just to feel a little bit [Am]better [G]about my[C]self
I[G] do, baby I [Dm]do, I do, I [G]do

Until their [C]lips start to move,
and their [G]friends wanna talk music
I [F]say "I've never heard the[Fm] tune!"
But I [C]have, I just hate the [G]band
'cause they remind me of [Dm]you. [G]
[F]Every single night e[F]nds u[A]p the[G] same,
[F]I d[G]on't [C]say much at [G]all, but I[Am] bring up your [G]name.
[F](Over and [F]over[E] and [F]over)

I think it's striking me out.

[C]All the pretty [G]girls on a [Am]Saturday n[G]ight.
Let it [C]be, and come to [G]me with the [Am]look in your [G]eyes.
Will you b[F]reak and [C]take all the [Dm]words from my [C]mouth?
I wish [F]all the pretty [C]girls were [Dm]shaking me [C]down.

But not [C]you,
you still wear [G]boots and your [Am]hair is too l[G]ong
and then [C]this one d[G]oesn't want to admit she's [Am]fallen in [G]love
Oh c[F]'mon, oh c'm[C]on, what's a[Dm] boy to d[C]o
When [F]all the pretty [C]girls can't [Dm]measure to [C]you.

[Em]I don’t want no savior baby, [A]I just[A/B] wanna h[A/C#]ave a[D] good time

[D]Oh-oh [Em]oh, [A]Oh-uh [D]oh [D]    [D]       [F#]           [A]
[D]At least I’m not as [Em]sad as I [A]used to be[D]

And they s[D]aid,
"H[C#m]ey N[D]ate, yeah it[Em]’s been a while,
Are yo[A]u gonna sing?"
[D]I began to smile and I said,
[D]"You should’ve seen me a [Em]couple of years [A]ago,
I was l[Em]aughing and d[Bm]rinking and [Em]smoking and s[A]inging."

[D]C’mon can you count all the loves that didn’t last?
It’s such a [Em]gas when you bring up the p[D]ast.[D]   [D]      [F#]          [A]
[D]Baby, put your name down on a piece of paper. [Em]
[Em]I don’t want no savior baby
[A]I just [A/B]wanna [A/C#]get it [D]out.

[D]Oh-oh [Em]oh, [A]Oh-uh [D]oh [D]    [D]       [F#]           [A]
[D]At least I’m not as [Em]sad as I [A]used to be [D]

[D]Oh-oh [Em]oh, (get it out) [A]Oh-uh [D]oh[D]   [D]      [F#]          [A]
[D]At least I’m not as [Em]sad as I [A]used to be [D]

[D]  [Em]   (Just get it out)[A]  [D]
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
[D] [Em] [A] [D]
[D]At least I’m not as [Em]sad as I [A]used to be [D]

And they [D]say we would’ve seen you tw[Em]o years ago
Had you[A] stuck around or come[A] ou[Bm]t to[C#] a s[D]how,
But y[Bm]outh’s taken o[D]ver by r[Em]ock and roll,
While we were l[A]aughing and d[G]rinking and s[F#m]moking and si[E]nging....

So I [D]left, That is [Em]it. That’s my l[A]ife, Nothing is [Dsus4]sacred[D].
I don’t [Bm]keep friends,I keep acq[Em]uainted,
[A]I’m not a prophet, But I’m here to profit.

That’s [D]all,[Em] I’m gone! That’s my [A]life, Nothing is [Dsus4]sacred[D].
I don’t f[Bm]all in love, I just [Em]fake it.
I don’t f[A]all in love. I don’t [A/B]fall[A/C#] in l[D]ove.

[D]

[D]Never in all of my l[E]ife
Have I seen e[A]yes as empty as these st[D]reets of my city
on a S[D]aturday night,
all the [E]green of your eyes says "[A]Go, leave it [Abm]all behi[D]nd."

But I don't [D]need to be reminded a c[E]hange is gonna come.
I can [D]feel it on the tip of your t[E]ongue.

And [A]I feel alive, feel alive, [D]feel alive[A].

We [D]met up once we'd settled the s[E]un
Betw[A]een the h[Abm]eat and the work week
The [D]fear is we could use some sleep
but [D]sleep to a superfluous [E]man means better use for beds
and I'll [A]bet I'm [Abm]coming home al[D]one tonight.

I don't n[D]eed to be reminded this [E]is how it was.
I moved [D]on, I passed a billboard d[E]own my block
that asks if [D]I've had enough, and aloud I [E]say "I've had too much"
when the [D]truth is, I'm just getting st[E]arted.

Now a[A]ll the barlights are blinking in time
[D]to Mexican music, it's taunting [D]the[E] pa[F#]veme[E]nt [D]
And [A]I feel alive, feel alive, [D]feel alive.

[D]One of us sings, and o[E]ne of us drinks,
and o[A]ne of us has nothing at all.
So he [D]calls us all sheep
I'm the L[E]ittle Bo Peep of the b[A]unch.

(I take their tales and I'm ready to go)
Then he [D]swears he's gotta take this c[E]all
Man, I'm sc[A]ared he's gonna l[Abm]eave us too s[D]oon.

We were the [D]get rich quick kids,
We n[E]ever got it right
So we s[D]ettled for the center in t[E]own
Where all the r[D]ich white kids is out l[E]ooking for a fight
got the b[D]lond one staring me d[E]own.
and I r[D]eally wanna take a s[E]wing
I can't h[A]elp but rem[Abm]ember James D[D]ean
See we are p[D]art of the few who ag[E]ree
that hey, he l[D]ived life fast
but he d[E]ied.

he died.

he died.

Me, I'm gonna live for[A]ever.
(And [A]I feel alive, feel alive, [D]feel ali[A]ve)

Now a[A]ll the barlights are blinking in time
[D]to Mexican music, it's taunting the pavement [A]

and for the first time,
in a long time, [D]
I feel alive. [A]

[Bb]Slo[Bb]w d[A]ow[Gm]n,
[F]we've got [Eb]time left to be la[F]zy
All the [Bb]kids have [Bb]blo[A]omed from [Gm]bab[F]ies in[Eb]to flowers in our [F]eyes.
We've got [Bb]fifty [Bb]goo[A]d y[Gm]ears l[F]eft to [Eb]spend out in the g[F]arden
I don't c[Eb]are to beg your [Dm]pardon,
We should l[Cm]ive   [F]
until we di[Bb]e. [Bb]    [A]      [Gm]         [F]           [Eb]              [F]                [Bb]                   [Bb]                      [A]                        [Bb]

We were [Bb]barely eigh[Bb]tee[A]n when we'd c[Gm]rossed collective hea[Dm]rts[Eb].  [F]
It was c[Eb]old, but it got w[Dm]arm when you'd[Cm] barely crossed my [F]eye.
and then you [Bb]turned, put o[Bb]ut [A]your [Gm]hand,
and[F] you[Eb] asked me to d[F]ance.
        [Eb]          [Dm]                 [Cm]             [F]

I knew nothing of romance, but it was love at second sight.

I [Eb]swear when I grow [F]up, I won't just buy you a r[Bb]ose[Bb].  [A]    [Gm]       [F]
I will [Eb]buy the flower s[F]hop, and you will never be lon[Bb]ely[Bb].  [A]    [Gm]       [F]
[Eb]Even if the sun stops w[F]aking up over the fields
I will not le[Bb]ave, I will not l[Bb]eav[A]e 'till it's [Gm]our time.
So just t[Eb]ake my hand, you know that [F]I will never leave your s[Bb]ide[Bb].  [A]    [Gm]       [F]         [Eb]            [F]              [Bb]                 [Bb]                    [A]                      [Bb]

[Bb] [Bb] [A] [Gm] [F] [Eb] [F] [Bb] [Bb] [A] [Bb]

It was the [Bb]winter of '[Bb]86,[A] and all the [Gm]fields had frozen [Dm]ove[Eb]r. [F]
So we mo[Eb]ved to Ari[Dm]zona to sa[Cm]ve our only s[F]on
and now he's [Bb]tur[Bb]nin[A]g [Gm]to [F]a man,
although he [Eb]thinks just like his m[F]other,
      [Eb]                   [Dm]              [Cm]          [F]

he believes we're all just lovers he sees hope in everyone.

And even [Bb]though she m[Bb]ove[A]d a[Gm]way,
we a[F]lways get [Eb]calls from our d[F]aughter.
She has [Eb]eyes just like her [Dm]father's
they are [Cm]blue when skies are [F]grey
And just like [Bb]him, she n[Bb]eve[A]r st[Gm]ops, [F]
Never t[Eb]akes the day for g[F]ranted,
[Eb]works for everything that's h[Dm]anded to her,
[Cm]Never once comp[F]lains.

[Eb]You think that I ne[F]arly lo[Bb]st [Bb]you[A]  [Gm]     [F]
When the d[Eb]octors tried to t[F]ake you aw[Bb]ay.[Bb]   [A]     [Gm]        [F]
But like the n[Eb]ight you took my [F]hand beside the f[Bb]ire[Bb]   [A]     [Gm]        [F]
thirty y[Eb]ears ago [F]
to this d[Bb]ay
[Eb]You swore you'd be here 'til we d[F]ecide that it's our time
Well it's not t[Bb]ime, you've never q[Bb]uit[A] in all your[Gm] life.
So just t[Eb]ake my hand, you know that [F]I'll never leave your s[Bb]ide[Bb].  [A]    [Gm]
You're the l[Eb]ove of my life, you know that [F]I'll never leave your s[Bb]ide[Bb].  [A]    [Gm]       [F]         [Eb]            [F]              [Bb]                 [Bb]                    [A]                      [Bb]

[Eb] [Dm] [Cm] [Dm] [Eb] [F]
[Eb] [Dm] [Cm] [F]

You come h[Bb]ome from w[Bb]ork[A]  [Gm]     [F]
and you k[Eb]iss me on the e[F]ye
You curse the [Eb]dog you say that I[Dm] should never fe[Cm]ed them what is ou[F]rs
and so we m[Bb]ove all [Bb]to [A]the g[Gm]arden [F]
look at [Eb]everything we've o[F]wned
now the [Eb]kids are coming [Dm]home
so [Cm]I set the table [Dm]    [Eb]       [F]
You can make the f[Bb]ire.

[A]Ho[A]me [A]    [C#m]         [C#m]              [E]                 [E]                    [C#m]                         [C#m]

See, of eve[G]ryone who cal[D]led,
Very [F#m]few said[A] "We[G] believe in you." [E]   [D]
The[G] overwhelming choice[D] said
[E]I'm j[D]ust a [F#m]boy in[A]side a voice [G]
and if it's [G]true, if i[G]t's [F#m]true, i[E]f it's tr[D]ue,
[D]then [A]what the [F#m]fuck have [A]I been d[G]oing the last six years?
How[D] did I end up her[A]e?
And [F#m]I find l[A]ove and c[G]onquer all my fears?
See, [D]I made it out.
[F#m]Out from[A] under the [G]sun.
And the truth is that I feel bett[D]er because I've forg[F#m]iven ev[A]eryon[G]e.

Now I'm not s[G]cared
of a s[D]ong
or the s[F#m]tates,
or the st[G]ages.
I'm not s[G]cared.
I've got fr[D]iends,
took my c[F#m]all, [A]
came[G] courageous.

Now I feel like I am home.

One more [G]think, I keep having this d[D]ream
where I'm s[F#m]tanding[A] on a mounta[G]in  [E]    [D]
Looking out[G], on the s[D]treet
I can hear k[F#m]ids in l[A]ow-income h[G]ousing s[E]ing[D]ing
"We're [G]through with cau[F#m]sing [E]a s[D]cene"

I don't know
I [F#m]don't know
I don't k[A]now
I don't k[G]now

what it means
But I [G]too, I'm th[D]rough with [G]cau[F#m]sing [E]a s[D]cene.

[E]For every l[G]ove t[F#m]hat's[E] lo[D]st I h[C#m]eard [D]a n[E]ew one c[A]ome[A]s. [C#m]      [C#m]           [E]              [E]                 [C#m]                      [C#m]

So come [G]on with me, sing al[D]ong with me,
Let the w[A]ind [A]ca[Bb]tch your f[Bm]eet.
If you l[G]ove someb[D]ody,[A]   [A]      [A]         [C#m]              [C#m]                   [E]                      [E]                         [C#m]                              [C#m]

you'd better let them know.

Take your time coming home.

Take your t[G]ime coming h[D]ome.
Hear the w[G]heels as they r[A]oll.[A]  [Bb]
Let your l[G]ungs fill up with sm[D]oke.

I don't t[G]hink I'd been misl[D]ed,
it was a rock'n'roll[G] band,
I'm still st[A]anding,[A]  [Bb]
Take your t[G]ime coming h[D]ome.  [A]     [A]        [C#m]             [C#m]                  [E]                     [E]                        [C#m]                             [C#m]

Take your t[G]ime coming h[D]ome.
