"NIGHTSWIMMING"

   Intro....
   [G]    [B](note)->[C]
   [G]    [B](note)->[D]

   Nightswimming deserves a quiet night...
   [G]    [B](note)->[C]   [D]
   [G]    [B](note)->[C]   [A]   [C]   [D]

  (over and over again for the whole song... the two lines above are played
for each line)

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
The photograph on the dashboard taken years ago
Turn around backwards so the windshield shows
Every streetlight reveals a picture and a verse
Still It's so much clearer
I forgot my shirt at the water's edge
The moon is low tonight

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
i'm not sure all these people understand
It's not like years ago
The fear of getting caught
The recklessness in water
They cannot see me naked
These things they go away
Replaced by every day

Nightswimming remembering that night
September's coming soon
i'm pining for the moon
and what if there were two
Side by side in orbit
Around the fairest sun
A bright type could never drawn
could not describe, Nightswimming

You I thought I knew you, you I cannot judge,
you I thought you knew me, this one laughing quietly, underneath my breath
Nightswimming

The photograph reflects every streetlight a reminder
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night, deserves a quiet night

[D]Hey now little [F]speedy head the [A7Sus4]read on the [G]speedometer says
[D]you have to go the [F]task in the [A7Sus4]city
[D]Where people drown and [F]people serve
[A7Sus4]Don't be shy, your [G]just deserve is [D]only just [F]light years to [A7Sus4]go

[G]Me my thoughts are [A]flowers strewn, an [D]ocean storm may [Em]bury them
[G]I have got to [A]leave to find my [D]way   [Dsus4]
[G]Watch the road and [A]memorize this [D]life that passed [Em]before my eyes

[D]  [F]  [A7Sus4]  [G]  [D]  [F]  [A7Sus4]

[D]The ocean is the [F]river's goal, the [A7Sus4]need to leave the [G]water knows
[D]We're closer now, but [F]light years to[A7Sus4] go
[G]I have got to [A]find the river,  [D]Bergamot and [Em]bed of rose
[G]Run through my [A]head and far [D]away
[G]Leave the road and [A]memorize this [D]life that passed [Em]before my eyes

REPEAT INTRO RIFF

[D]There's no one left to [F]take the lead, but [A7Sus4]I'll tell you and [G]you can see
[D]We're closer now and [F]light years to [A7Sus4]go
[D]Pick up here and [F]chase the ride, [A7Sus4]river empties [G]to the tide
[D]Fall [F]into the [A7Sus4]ocean

[G]River to the [A]ocean goes a [D]fortune for the [Em]undertow
[G]None of this is [A]going my [D]way
[G]There is nothing [A]left to grow but [D]ginger, mint, and [Em]indigo
[G]Coriander stem and [A]rows of [D]hay
[G]Strength and courage [A]overrides, these [D]privileged and [Em]weary eye
[G]River poets [A]search [D]naivete
[G]Pick up here and [A]chase the ride, the [D]river empties [Em]to the tide
[G]All of this is [A]coming your [D]way

FIRST WE TAKE MANHATTAN (Leonard Cohen) [B-Side to "Drive"]

They sen[Dm]tenced me to twenty years of bo[Am]redom
For try[Dm]ing to change the system from wi[Am]thin
I'm com[Dm]ing now I'm coming to rew[Am]ard   them
Fi[G]rst we take Manhatt[F]an,[E] then we take Berl[Am]in

I'm gui[Dm]ded by a signal in the hea[Am]vens
I'm gui[Dm]ded by this birthmark on my[Am] skin
I'm gui[Dm]ded by the beauty of our we[Am]apons
Fi[G]rst we take Manhatt[F]an,[E] then we take Berl[Am]in

I'd [C]really like to live beside you, b[G]aby  [F]
I love your bo[C]dy and your spirit and your cl[Am]othes
But you s[C]ee that line there moving through the st[Am]ation
I to[G]ld you I to[F]ld you I to[E]ld you I was one of tho[Am]se

You lov[Dm]ed me as a loser but now your wo[Am]rried that I just might win
You k[Dm]now the way to stop me but you [Am]don't have the discipline
How m[Dm]any nights I prayed for this: to l[Am]et my work begin
Fi[G]rst we take Manhatt[F]an,[E] then we take Berl[Am]in

[Dm]I don't like your fashion business, m[Am]ister
[Dm]I don't like these drugs that keep you t[Am]hin
[Dm]I don't like what happened to your s[Am]ister
Fi[G]rst we take Manhatt[F]an,[E] then we take Berl[Am]in  (chorus)

And I t[Dm]hank you for those items that you [Am]sent me
The [Dm]monkey end the plywood viol[Am]in
I pr[Dm]acticed every night and now I'm r[Am]eady
Fi[G]rst we take Manhatt[F]an,[E] then we take Berl[Am]in

Rem[Dm]ember me, I used to live for m[Am]usic
Rem[Dm]ember me, I brought your groceries i[Am]n
It's Fa[Dm]ther's Day and everybody's w[Am]ounded
Fi[G]rst we take Manhatt[F]an,[E] then we take Berl[Am]in

"Arms Of Love" (Robin Hitchcock) [B-Side to "Man on the Moon"]

I've tried to lay out the rythym as graphically as possible.

[G] Maybe            to[C]night you're        [G]achin'         [C]              [G]
[G] For someone you're [F]dreamin'           o[C]f                   [C]
[D]Tomorrow            [D]you'll be           [C]wakin               [C]Into the
[D]Arms, into the      [D/G]arms of             [C]Love                [C]

(*You could use either a D, D/G, or a G here, whatever suits you best.)

Maybe tonight you're cryin
Like a poor wounded dove
Tell me you'll soon be flying
Into the Arms, into the arms of love

Maybe tonight you're takin
You couldn't get enough
Honey you'll soon be wakin'
Into the Arms, into the arms of Love

[Interlude, use same three lines of chords that run through the sung
 verse.]

Maybe the world is falling
It wasn't strong enough
Tell me you'll soon be crawling
Into the Arms, into the arms of Love
(repeat to end)

"FRETLESS"

He's got his work, and she comes easy
They each come around when the other is gone
Me, I think I got stuck somewhere in between
I wouldn't confide in the prodigal son,
The dye has been cast, the battle is won
The bullets were blanks, a double locked gun
I couldn't admit to a minute of fun.

And they come and they come and they come
I accept it with a gentle tongue
No words spoken, no ? kept

Take it, stomp twice, ring bell
Tether that ringing, freeze
Enough with the rifle and talk already
We all know what it means
Take this conversation to your great divide
I can only swallow what I ate,
And I don't hate him, and I don't hate her.

And they come and they come and they come
I accept it with a gentle tongue
No heart broken, no ? kept

Don't talk to me about being alone
Don't talk to me about being alone
Don't talk to me about being alone

Reach for each other before you leave
Reach peace, P-[E]-[A]-[C]-[E]
Don't threaten me with a gentle tease,
Don't threaten me with angry
Please please please don't try to tell me what I am

And they come and they come and they come
I accept it with a gentle tongue
No words spoken, no ? except

Don't talk to me about being alone
Don't talk to me about being alone
Don't talk to me about being alone....

Ends on Em.
