     I've got a hollow in my head
                 Bb  Dm                 C
Just checkin' it up, baby, one more time for you
             Bb             Dm       C
Checkin' it up until the pie hits the sky
Dm                                  Am
      It's like I think I'm sick of cocaine

Checkin' it up until the pie hits the sky
         Bb                    Dm         C
Even the best years leave a lot to be desired
                    Am
When they pass you... by
Bb     C        Am
     All these seasons
Dm   C    Bb
All  this time

Spinnin' past till they leave you
Dm  C Bb
Far behind
       C            Am            Dm  C     Bb
Lay me down in a circle where the spotlight shines
         C                   Dm   Am   Gm  Bb
All this pleasure gets me high
Dm

Dm                                       Am
    Some people will cut you till you're bleeding
        Dm                                  G
But not me 'cause I just want to do it to myself
            Bb  Dm                 C
Checkin' it up, baby, one more time for you
        Bb          Dm           C
Checkin up until the pie hits the sky
         Bb               Dm
Even the best years are a waste of time
     C          Bb         Am

Spinnin' past till they leave you

Lay me down in a circle where the spotlight shines
            C          Am        Dm   C   Bb
Turn your back on the people who draw the line
         C             Am           Dm C   Bb
Put your faith in the anthems that you can find
          C             Am            Dm C    Bb
Hit the ground hard runnin' down that highway line
       C              Am            Dm  C Bb
Say a prayer for the ones you have left behind
          C                 Dm   Am   Gm  Bb
All this pleasure gets me high

Tom: D
D                                                      E-
Get away from me, get away from me this isn't gonna be easy
            G                D

                    E-	           G                D
I don't need anyone these days I feel like I'm fading away.
      E-              G                    D        
Like sometimes when I hear myself on the radio.
G                E-

Have you seen me lately?
C                G                 D
I was out on the radio starting to change. 
                 G              C
Somewhere out in America, it's raining
                  D              G             C
Could you tell me one thing you remember about me,
     D    G           C        G        D  {back to pick}
    ...remember about me?
D
I remember me all the little things that make up a memory
E-            G                D
she said she loved to watch me sleep.
      E-			       G
like she said, "it's the breathing, 
          D
it's the breathing in and out and in and..."   {Chorus}
  D
Well I thought that someone would notice
                                                 E-
I thought somebody would say something if I was missing
     G              D
Well can't you see me?
D
come on color me in, come on color me in 
come on, come on, come on
                   E-
give me your blue rain
                   G
give me your black sky
                   D  
give me your green eyes
                      E-
come on give me your white skin
                      G
come on give me your white skin
                      D 
come on give me your white skin
C                G                 D
I was out on the radio starting to change. 
                 G              C
Somewhere out in America, it's raining
                  D              G             C
Could you tell me one thing you remember about me,
      D              G            C
just one thing you remember about me?
      D              G            C
just one thing you remember about me?
      D              G            C
just one thing you remember about me?
      D              G            C

Daylight Fading
Tom: G
            
G
Waiting for the moon to come and light me up inside
         Em                           C           A
And I am waiting for the telephone to tell me I'm alive
G
Well I heard you let somebody get their fingers into you
             Em                         C               A
It's getting cold in California I guess I'll be leaving soon
{Chorus}
D
Daylight fading
         Em7           C
Come and waste another year
        Em7           C             G             D
All the anger and the eloquence are bleeding into fear
D                             Em7            C
Moonlight creeping around the corners of our lawn
        Em            Asus2                 C
When we see the early signs that daylight's fading
         D
We leave just before it's gone
G
She said "everybody loves you.” She says,"everybody cares."
             Em                              C             A
But all the things I keep inside myself,they vanish in the air
G
If you tell me that you'll wait for me I'll say I won't be here
              Em                                C
I want to say goodbye to you. Goodbye to all my friends.
              A
  Goodbye to everyone I know
{Instrumental on verse chords and repeat chorus}

 

Angels of the Silences
Tom :E
E/G#             Asus2             E             B5 
Well I guess you left me with some feathers in my hand
       E/G#        Asus2     E                B5 
Did it make it any easier to leave me where I stand?
              E/G#             Asus2          E                B5 
I guess there might not be too many who would stand beside you now
            E/G#                      Asus2
Where'd you come from?     Where am I going?
           E                 B5 
Why'd you leave me 'till I'm only good for...
{chorus}
E       E/G#     G#-      B
Waiting for you....All my sins...
            F#-             A
I said that I would pay for them if I could
E       E/G#     G#-      B
come back to you...All my innocence 
        F#-           A
is just wasted on the dead end dreaming
E/G#              Asus2         E             B5 
Every night these silhouettes appear above my head
       E/G#         Asus2          E             B5 
Little angels of the silences that climb into my bed and whisper
E/G#         Asus2          E             B5 
Every time I fall asleep    Every time I dream
         E/G#             Asus2         
"Did you come?  Would you lie?
           E                   B5 
Why'd you leave us 'till we're only good for... {Chorus}
{E chord pick then Instrumental on verse chords}
  E/G#          Asus2            E           B5
I dream of Michelangelo when I'm lying in my bed 
       E/G#        Asus2             E               B5                          
Little angels hang above my head and read me like an open book
E/G#            Asus2            E              B5
Suck my blood   break my nerve   offer me their arms
        E/G#          Asus2       E            B5
Well, I will not be an enemy of anything, I'll only stand here ...{chorus}
{Ending - E chord pick}

G
"She's looking at you.  Ah, no, no, she's looking at me."
C              F               G
Smiling in the bright lights   Coming through in stereo
     C         F          G
When everybody loves you, you can never be lonely
Am              F         Dm              G
I will paint my picture   Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
Am                   F               G
All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful
           Am                  F       Dm         G         *
(you know) Gray is my favorite color I felt so symbolic yesterday
Am          F             G
If I knew Picasso I would buy myself a gray guitar and play

Stare at the beautiful women

"She's looking at you.  Uh, I don't think so.  She's looking at me."
C               F         G
Standing in the spotlight I bought myself a gray guitar
     C         F         G                   Am
When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely

We all want to be big big stars, but we got different reasons for that.
Am                      F
Believe in me because I don't believe in anything

Mr. Jones and me staring at the video
       C               F                 G
When I look at the television, I want to see me staring right back at me.
C                 F                 G
We all want to be big stars, but we don't know why, and we don't know how.
         C           F                    G
But when everybody loves me, I'm going to be just about as happy as I can
be.

Long December    
Tom: G
Intro: D(F) G(Bb) Em(Gm) G(Bb)
       D(F) G(Bb) Em(Gm)...(add7)?  <-----(not too sure)

 

G(Bb)           D(F)        A(C)           Em(Gm)
A long December and there's reason to believe
        G(Bb)            D(F)             G(Bb)
Maybe this year will be better than the last
Em(Gm)       G(Bb)    D(F)            A(C)                Em(Gm)
I can't remember the last thing  you said as you were leavin'
        D(F)         G(Bb) 
Now the days go by so fast
Chorus:
            D(F)         G(Bb)             Em(Gm)
And it's one more day up in the canyons
            D(F)          G(Bb)            Em(Gm) 
And it's one more night in Hollywood
            D(F)            G(Bb)       Em(Gm)...| 
If you think that I could be forgiven...         I wish you would
D(F)      G(Bb) 
Na na na na
Em(Gm)      G(Bb) 
Na na na na na na na na na
D(F)      G(Bb) Em(Gm)
Na na na na yeah
G(Bb)           D(F)           A(C)
The smell of hospitals in
winter                                                              
         Em(Gm)           G(Bb)          D(F)           G(Bb)
And the feeling that it's all a lot of oysters, but no pearls
Em(Gm)  G(Bb)          D(F)            A(C)                  
All at once you look across a crowded room
           Em(Gm)            D(F)        G(Bb)
To see the way that light attaches to a girl

Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m.
      G(Bb)             D(F)           G(Bb) 
And talked a little while about the year
Em(Gm)            G(Bb)        D(F)            A(C)
I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower,

Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her

                G(Bb)    D(F)               A(C)        Em(Gm)
And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe
         G(Bb)            D(F)             G(Bb)
Maybe this year will be better than the last

I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself

To hold on to these moments as they pass

It's been so long since I've seen the ocean...    I guess I should
(do this next part 4X)     (on 3rd time you can play the solo over,
D(F)      G(Bb)            but it might not sound good without at least

D                      A
When I think of heaven
Bm         A                 D
Deliver me in a black-winged bird
A          Bm     A           D               A
I think of flying down into a sea of pens and feathers
Bm            A              D                 A
And all other instruments of faith and sex and God
                  Bm           A
In the belly of a black-winged bird.
Bm    G
Don't try to feed me
Bm        G
I've been here before
    D           E
And I deserve a little more
[chorus]
A Bm    D       E              A
I belong in the service of the Queen
A Bm    D   E               A
I belong anywhere but in between
A          Bm     D               E
She's been crying and I've been thinking

And I am the Rain King
[verse]
E          D           A            Bm   A
And I said mama, mama, mama, why am I so alone?
D          A
I can't go outside
             Bm                A
I'm scared I might not make it home
    D           A
I'm alive, I'm alive
     Bm           A
But I'm sinking in
           D                 A
If there's anyone at home at your place, darling
Bm                      A
Why don't you invite me in?
Bm    G
Don't try to bleed me

I've been there before

And I deserve a little more

And I am the Rain King

Henderson is waiting for the sun
                   D         A
Oh, it seems night endlessly begins and ends
Bm            D               A
After all the dreaming I come home again
repeat D A Bm A 2x here
[verse]
D               A
When I think of heaven
Bm         A                 D
Deliver me in a black-winged bird
A          Bm
I think of dying
A                D                  A
Lay me down in a field of flame and heather
Bm           A             D                A
Render up my body into the burning heart of God
                Bm             A
In the belly of a black-winged bird
Bm    G
Don't try to bleed me

I've been here before

And I deserve a little more
