Hand In Hand Tom: C Intro: C Am C Am C Am the sky is crying the streets are full of tears C Am rain come down and wash away my fears Am Em and all this writing on the wall Em Am G/C G/D G oh i can read between the lines C Am rain come down forgive this dirty town C Am rain come down and give this dirty town Am Em Am C G a drink of water a drink of wine
G Am G F if i been hard on you i never chose to be G Am G F G7 i never wanted no one else G Am Em Am G i tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to F G7/E Dm Dm/C G hand in hand like lovers are supposed to
As you'd sleep I'd think my heart would break in two I'd kiss your cheek I'd stop myself from waking you But in the dark you'd speak my name You'd say baby what's wrong ? Oh ? Here I am baby I'm coming back for more I'm like a wave that's got to roll into the shore Yes and if my love's in vain how come my love is so strong ?
Chorus
Now you and me go parallel together and apart And you keep your perfect distance and it's tearing at my heart Did you never feel the distance You never tried to cross no line 'Cause it's another dirty river and another dirty scar And I don't know who's kissing you and I don't know where you are So far from home don't you think of me sometime
Chorus (2x)
Sky is crying see the streets are full of tears Rain coming down to wash away my fears And all this writing on the wall
Romeo And Julien Tom: C Intro:C Am x4
Verse I: C G Am G C A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade C G Am G F Laying everybody low with a love song that he made G F G C Finds a street light steps out into the shade F G Says something like you and me babe, how about it? C G Am G C Juliet says hey it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack C G Am G F He's underneath the window, she's singing hey la my boyfriends back G F G C you shouldn't come around here singing up to people like that F G Anyway, what you gonna do about it?
Chorus I: C G Am G F Juliet the dice was loaded from the start C G Am G F And I bet, and you exploded in my heart. C G Am F And I forget, I forget, the movie song Dm C F G Am G C When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong Juliet?
Verse II: Come up on different streets, they both the streets of shame Both dirty both mean, yes and even and dream was just the same And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real. How can you look at me as if I was just another part of your deal
Well you can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold. you can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin yeah Now you just say oh Romeo yeah, I used to have a scene with him.
Chorus II: Juliet when we made love you used to cry you said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die There's a place for us, you know the movie song When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong Juliet?
Verse III: I can't do the talk, like they talk on the tv I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be. I can't do anything, but I'd do anything for you. I cant't do anything but be in love with you.
And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be All I do is keep the beat and bad company. All I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme Juliet I'd do the stars with you anytime.
Repeat Chorus II:
Verse IV: A love struck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade. Now he's laying everymody low, with a love song that he made. Finds a convenient street light, steps out of the shade Says something like you and me babe how about it
outro: F G (as long as the lead player can do those tasty fills)
