E B A B E B A B
Johnny got an angel dancing topless at night down in Toyland
E B A B E B A B
Where the blondies and the supergirls offer a sad look and soft hands
E B A B
And if you're looking for someone to steal your heart
E B A B
Someone tough enough to take it
E B A B
Someone to keep it or to tear it apart
A B
Someone to love you, someone to fake it
E B A B Lonely night in the park E B A B Oh, lonely night in the park E B A B Oh lonely lonely lonely lonely night E B A B E Lonely lonely lonely lonely night in the park

E B A B E B A B
Well there's some dudes at the door givin' talk
E B A B E B A B
There's a lady at the bar, that's right
E B A B
Slip off your stool and you step through the rubble
E B A B
This is your chance, you're going to take it
E B A B
If she can dance, you can make it
E B A B E B A B
She takes off her shoes and runs down the beach
E B A B E B A B
Oh, she's as soft as the night
E B A B
You fall and she crawls within your reach
E B A B
Let her drag you down on the sand
A B
And try to make it all right, ohhh

(Riff #3)
And the boardwalk is so quiet at three in the morning
(Riff #3)
The lonely wind breath life into a Ferris wheel
(Riff # 3)
Somehow tonight this street seems so boring
E B
Raped and ravaged, with no secrets to reveal
Ohhh, watch yourself now!
E B A B

Ohhh, watch yourself now!
Well, the bars close down and the lonesome armies they run for cover The lost boys and their pick ups, man they hate each other Ah and you're drinking beneath the pier with Kid Blue And Kid gets sick and throws up on your shoes And you're thinking of making it home Oh but your mom can't see you like this all alone Yeah you're walking down the street and no one knows your name Standing on the corner looking for the light to change Sitting on the picket, light by light, line by line They got nothing left but time
E B A B Lonely night in the park E B A B Oh, lonely night in the park E B A B Oh lonely lonely lonely lonely night E B A B E Lonely lonely lonely lonely night in the park

Give a soul a night of fearless sleep
Give me love, give me peace
C E
Don't you know these days you pay for everything
A Got high hopes, got high hopes Got high hopes, got high hopes
Comin' from the city, comin' from the wild
I see a breathless army breakin' like a cloud
They're gonna smother love, they're gonna shoot your hopes
Before the meek inherit, they'll learn to hate themselves
G A
Give me help, give me strength
G
Give a soul a night of fearless sleep
Give me love, give me peace

Don't you know these days you pay for everything
A Got high hopes, got high hopes Got high hopes, got high hopes Got high hopes, got high hopes Got high hopes, got high hopes
So tell me someone, now, what's the price
I wanna buy some time and maybe live my life
I wanna have a wife I wanna have some kids
I want to look in their eyes and know they stand a chance

Give me help, give me strength

Give a soul a night of fearless sleep
Give me love, give me peace

We Are Alive Tom: G Intro: G C G / G C D
G C G
There is a cross up yonder up on Calvary Hill
G C D
There is a slip of blood on a silver knife
G C G
There is a graveyard kid… Down below…
G C D
Where at night did come to life
G C G
And above the stars, they crackle in fire
G C D
A dead man's moon throws seven rings
G C G
Well, we put our ears to the cold grave stones
G C D
This is the song they'd sing
G C G
WE ARE ALIVE…
G C D
And though our bodies lie alone here in the dark
G C G C D
OUR SPIRITS RISE…. To carry the fire and light the spark
G C G
To stand shoulder to shoulder and HEART… TO HEART …
G C G / G C D (Whistle………….)
G C G
A voice cried out, I was killed in Maryland in 1877
G C D
When the railroad workers made their stand
G C G
Well, I was killed in 1963 one Sunday morning in Birmingham
G C D
Well, I died last year crossing the southern desert
G C G
My children left behind in San Pablo
G C D
Well they left our bodies here to rot
G C G
Oh please let them know… WE ARE ALIVE…
G C D
Oh, and though we lye alone here in the dark
G C G C D
OUR SOULS WILL RISE… To carry the fire and light the spark
G C G
To fight shoulder to shoulder and HEART… TO HEART…
G C G / G C D…….4x’s (Whistle………….)
G C G
Let your mind rest easy, sleep well my friend
G C D
It's only our bodies that betray us in the end
G C G
I awoke last night in a dark and dreamy deep
G C D
From my head to my feet, my body gone stone cold
G C G
There were worms crawling all around me
G C D
Fingers scratching at an earth black and six foot low
G C G
And alone in the blackness of my grave
G C D
Alone I'd been LEFT TO DIE
G C G
Then I heard voices calling all around me
G C D
The earth rose above me, my eyes filled with sky
G C G
WE ARE ALIVE…
G C D
And though our bodies lie alone here in the dark
G C G
OUR SOULS & SPIRITS RISE…
G C D
To carry the fire and light the spark
G C G
To fight shoulder to shoulder and HEART…. TO HEART…
G C G
To stand shoulder to shoulder and HEART…. TO HEART…
C G……….Stop
WE ARE ALIVE !!!!
G C G / G C D…….4x’s…..FADE with a whistle….

May looked at Billy, Billy fell in love
Billy swore to Mari he'd always love her so
They were married in the valley where the river flows, alright
(CHORUS)
At a roadside bar Billy argued with a young man
And he settled that argument with a razor in his hand
With blood on his shirt back to Mary he did run
She sighed "Billy, oh Billy what have you done?"
He ran to his ma's trailer but the lights were dim
He punded on the, she wouldn't let him in
Up the road to a neighbour's house he drew near
They said "Billy go away, we don't want no trouble 'round here"
Billy stole a car and headed out on the road
Pocketful of pills and his brain on overload
Seen some lights in his rearview mirror, panicked and gave her the gun.
Wrapped himself 'round a telephone pole way out on 101
Well Billy got cut out on by a highway patrol
Just lay there with the cars passing on so slow
Sherrif told BIlly's ma that Billy died
She buried his body by the riverside, alright
(CHORUS)

Poor man want the money that the rich man got

Into The Fire
Tom: F
F
The sky was falling and streaked with blood
I heard you calling me, then you disappeared into the dust
Bb F
Up the stairs, into the fire
Bb F
Up the stairs, into the fire
Bb
I need your kiss, but love and duty called you someplace higher
F
Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire
Bb
May your strength give us strength
F
May your faith give us faith
C
May your hope give us hope
F
May your love bring us love
Bb
May your strength give us strength
F
May your faith give us faith
C
May your hope give us hope
Bb F
May your love bring us love
You gave your love to see, in fields of red and autumn brown
You gave your love to me and lay your young body down
Bb F
Up the stairs, into the fire
Bb F
Up the stairs, into the fire
Bb
I need you near, but love and duty called you someplace higher
C F
Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire
Bb
May your strength give us strength

May your hope give us hope
F
May your love bring us love
Bb
May your strength give us strength
F
May your faith give us faith
C
May your hope give us hope
Bb
May your love bring us love
It was dark, too dark to see, you held me in the light you gave
You lay your hand on me
Then walked into the darkness of your smoky grave
Bb F
Up the stairs, into the fire
Bb F
Up the stairs, into the fire
Bb
I need your kiss, but love and duty called you someplace higher
C F
Somewhere up the stairs, into the fire
Bb
May your strength give us strength
F
May your faith give us faith
C
May your hope give us hope
F
May your love bring us love
Bb
May your strength give us strength
F
May your faith give us faith

May your hope give us hope

Lonesome day
Hell's brewing, dark sun's on the rise
This storm will blow through, by and by

Little revenge and this too shall pass
This too shall pass, darling
Yeah I'm gonna pray
Right now all I got's this lonesome day
Lonesome Day

Better ask questions before you shoot
Deceit and betrayal's a bitter fruit
It's hard to swallow, come time to pay
That taste on your tongue don't easily slip away
Let kingdom come, I'm gonna find my way

Yeah, through this lonesome day
