Dreams
F, G, F, G
F G F G Now here you go-o again, you say, you want your free-dom.
F G F, G Well who am I-I to keep you down?
F G F G It’s only ri-ight that you should play the way you fe-el it, but
F G F GListen careful-ly to the sou-ound, of your lone-li-ness
F G F G FLike a heartbeat drives you ma-ad, in the still-ness of remem-bering, what you ha-ad
G F G F G F And what you lo-ost, and what you ha-ad, and what you lo-ost
G Am G6 Am G6 Oh, thun-der only hap-pens when it’s rain-ing, Am G6 Am G6Players only lo-ove you when they’re play-ing
Am G6 Am G6Say, women they will co-ome and they will go-o-o
Am G6 AmWhen the rain wash-es you clean you’ll know,
G6 Am G……., F….., Am…, G…….., F…..You’ll know.
Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions. I keep my visions to myself.
It’s only me who wants to wrap around your dreams
And have you any dreams you’d like to sell?
Dreams of loneliness, like a heartbeat, drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had and what you lost
G6 Am G6 Am G6 Am7You’ll know, you will know, Oh, you’ll know
G Am G6 Am G6 Oh, thun-der only hap-pens when it’s rain-ing,

Delta Rain Lyrics by William Topley
Thunder’s up and the real live wires are talking
Set me straight as the rain falls on New Orleans
Silver bells ring for treaties made by starlight
For Southern girls and their faces lit by fire-flies
Chorus:
And through the gutters there will be water
Running wilder than sea and as the rain comes
Down a thousand circles fade like you and me
They call us lovers because our bony legs are tied
Once more to seed, but there ain’t nothing I won’t risk
To set this bird of love fly free
Shake your hair out and come and dance with me
We are lonely with no good need to be
Where the river grows wide to kiss the sea
Floods the delta and lover’s eyes can see
Tonight is hot and there’s no wind from the ocean
I hear the drums as they bang across the water
Voodoo bells ring for treaties made by starlight
Forgotten gold and greed and fear at midnight
Chorus
Do you remember how we held each other tight in sorrow
Does it haunt you still?
And in a single raindrop I can see all our tomorrows
Baby, can’t you too?
Shake your hair out and come and dance with me
We are lonely with no good need to be
Where the river grows wide to kiss the sea
(she keeps rolling my life’s still in misery)
Floods the delta and lover’s eyes can see
Saving Grace by Tom Petty
intro: EEI’m passing sleeping cities, fading by degrees,Not believing all I see to be so
EI’m fly’in over backyards, country homes and ranchesWatching life between the branches below AAnd it’s hard to say, who you are these days, but you run on anyway EDon’t you baby? G D E EYou keep running for another place To find that saving grace
EI’m moving on alone, over ground that no one ownsPast statues that atone for my sinsThere’s a guard on every door and a drink on every floorOverflowing with a thousand amens
AAnd it’s hard to say, who you are these days, but you run on anyway
EDon’t you baby? G D EYou keep running for another place, to find that saving grace
EDon’t you baby?
Riff: E B A G E B A G E B A G A
E B A G E B A G E B A G A B EYou’re rolling up the carpet of your fathers two-room mansion No headroom for expansion no more.And there’s a corner of the floor, they’re telling you is yoursYou’re confident but not really sure.
AAnd it’s hard to say who you are these days, but you run on anyway
EDon’t you baby?
G D E EYou keep running for another place, to find that saving grace
EDon’t you baby?
G D E EYou keep running for another place, to find that saving grace
EDon’t you baby?

DChristmas bride.
You came unwanted and cleverly disguised
You left us haunted, utterly compromised.
She didn’t deserve the fate you gave her
You made us give our all to save her
I’m so tired of you hanging around here
I wish you’d crawl away and die
I will fight to the bitter end to beat you
I won’t let you see me cry.
Am Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GSometimes when this place gets kind of emptyAm Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GThe sound of the breath fades with the lightAm Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GI think about the loveless fascinationAm Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GUnder the Milky Way tonight
Am Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GLower the curtain down on MemphisAm Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GLower the curtain down all rightAm Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GI've got no time for private consultationAm Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GUnder the Milky Way tonight
G Fmaj7Wish I knew what you were looking forG Fmaj7Might have known what you would find
Am Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GAnd it's something quite peculiarAm Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GSomething shimmering and whiteAm Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GThat leads you here despite your destinationAm Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GUnder the Milky Way tonight
G Fmaj7Wish I knew what you were looking forG Fmaj7Might have known what you would findG Fmaj7Wish I knew what you were looking forG Fmaj7Might have known what you would find

Am Am7sus4 Fmaj7 GUnder the Milky Way tonight (repeat)
Now the chords. There are two guitars. One plays these chords inopen position, and the shapes are as such:
Am Am7sus4 Fmaj7 G CE-0-----3--------0-----3-----0--B-1-----3--------1-----3-----1--G-2-----2--------2-----0-----0--D-2-----2--------3-----0-----2--A-0-----0--------------2-----3--E----------------------3--------
The other guitar is capoed up on the 5th fret, and the chord formsare these (assuming that we treat the 5th fret as the nut):
Am Am7sus4 Fmaj7 G CE-0-----0--------0-----0-----3--B-0-----3--------0-----3-----3--G-0-----2--------0-----2-----0--D-2-----0--------2-----0-----0--A-2-----2--------3-----------2--E-0-----0--------------------3--
If you plan on playing this with only one guitar, I stronglyrecommend using the second set of chords, as the high capoed notesring out very nicely and sound more like the whole song in general.

My Immortal
I’m so tired of being here, suppressed by all my childish fears.
And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave.
Your presence still lingers here, and it won’t leave me alone.
These words won’t seem to heal, this pain is just to real, there’s just too much that time cannot erase.
When you cried, I’d wipe away all of your tears,
When you’d scream I’d fight away all of your fears,
I held your hand through all of these years.
You still have………………….. All of me
You used to captivate me, by your resonating light. Now I’m bound by the love you left behind.
Your face it haunts, my wants, prayers and dreams.
Your voice, it chased away, all the sanity in me.
These words won’t seem to heal, this pain is just to real, there’s just too much that time cannot erase.
When you cried, I’d wipe away all of your tears,
When you screamed I’d fight away all of your fears,
I held your hand through all of these years.
You still have………………….. All of me/I’ve tried so hard to tell myself that you’re gone.
But though you’re still with me, I’ve been alone all along.
(Instrumental)
When you cried, I wiped away all of your tears,
When you’d scream I’d fight away all of your fears,
I held your hand through all of these years.
You still have………………….. All of me
Oooooh, Oooooh, Ooooh

Wild Wood Weed
The wildwood flower grew wild on the farm, and we never knowed what it was called.Some said it was a flower and some said it was a weed, I never gave it much thought.One day I was out there talking to my brother, reached down for a weed to chew on,
Things got fuzzy and things got blurry, and then everything was gone!Didn't know what happened, but I knew it beat the hell out of sniffin' burlap.I come to and my brother was there, and he said, What's wrong with your eyes?I said, I don't know, I was chewing on that weed. He said let me give it a try.
We spent the rest of that day and most of that night trying to find my brother, Bill.Caught up with him, 'bout six o'clock the next morning, naked, swinging on the wind mill!He said he flew up there. I had to fly up there and bring him down, he was about half crazy.
The very next day we picked a bunch of them weeds, and put 'em in the sun to dry.Then we mashed 'em up and chopped 'em up and put 'em in the corncob pipe.Smokin' that wildwood flower got to be a habit. We didn't see no harmWe thought it was kind of handy to take a trip and never leave the farm.
Well all good things gotta come to an end and it's the same with the wildwood weed.
One day this feller from Washington came by and as he spied it he turned white as a sheet.Then they dug and they burned and they burned and they dug and they killed all our cute little weeds.Then they drove away. We just smiled and waved - sittin' there on that sack of seeds!
Y'all come back now, hear?
What Now My Love

F B F Gm7 F F7Watching my dreams, turning to ashes. And my hopes, into bits of clay.

Once I could see. Once I could feel. Now I am numb, I’ve become unreal.

I walk the night without a goal. Stripped of my heart, my soul.
What now my love now that it’s over. I feel the world closing in on me.
Here come the stars tumbling around me. There’s the sky, where the sea should be.
What now my love, now that you’re gone. I’d be a fool to go on and on.
No one would care. No one would cry, if I should live or die.
Et maintenant, que vais-je faire. De tout ce temps, que sera mavie.
De Tous ces gens, qui m’ indifferent. Maintenant, que tu es partie.
Toutes ces nuits, pour quoi, pour qui. Et ce matin, qui revient pour rien.
Mon Coeur qui bat, pour qui, pour quoi. Qui bat trop fort, trop fort.Lay Lady Lay

Wicked Game Chris Isaak, from _Heart-Shaped_World_
transcription by [email protected] (patrick m. ryan)(formerly [email protected])
Notes:This song sounds great on a Strat. I figured out 99%
of this song myself and confirmed my interpretation when Isaw Chris Isaak on 'Saturday Night Live'.
There are really two guitars in this tune. Isaak isstrumming the rhythm on his acoustic while his lead guitaristdoes the melody work. Isaak plays the Bm A E progressionthrough most of the song.
In my notation, a row of tildes (~) means 'wiggle the
tremelo bar'. '\' means slide down and '/' means slide up.The nice tremelo work along with a lot of reverb give thissong most of its atmosphere.
The intro riff is hard to notate. Basically, the sequenceon the B string is: pick open string (B), bend tremelo down 1/2 step,hammer-on 7th fret (F#), release tremelo, pick 7th fret (F#), slidedown to open string.

lyrics:
We were on fireNo one could save me but you.Strange what desire make foolish people doI never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like youI never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No, I don't want to fall in love [This girl is only gonna break your heart]No, I don't want to fall in love [This girl is only gonna break your heart]With youWith you
What a wicked game to playTo make me feel this wayWhat a wicked thing to doTo let me dream of youWhat a wicked thing to sayYou never felt this way
What a wicked thing to doTo make me dream of you
And I wanna fall in love [This girl is only gonna break your heart]And I don't want to fall in love [This girl is only gonna break your heart]
World was on fireNo one could save me but youStrange what desire make foolish people doI never dreamed that I'd love somebody like youI never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
And I wanna fall in love [This girl is only gonna break your heart]And I wanna fall in love [This girl is only gonna break your heart]With youWith you
Nobody loves no one
The Tiffany Suite
Flute and guitar instrumental, full verse Electric 23, VB 27, Key D
Every day was like another, put one foot in front of the other
Invite some friends to wash my blues away.
Don’t look up, just stay in line. Don’t rock the boat, keep markin’ time.
Takin’ it nice and easy was my plan, pretending I was such a happy man.
As those I cared for breathed their last, I realized the time had past.
I didn’t know as you walked through my door.
That you would turn my world around, sweep my feet right from the ground.
You broke through and led me by the hand and showed me how to be a happy man. Pick! Instrumental, faster and louder
The scent of flowers fill the air, music flows without a care,
The sky has never been so blue before.
Butterflies have much more meaning, words of love are worth repeating.
You broke through and led me by the hand and showed me how to be a happy man.
You showed me how to be a happy man.
(Slow) You showed me, how to be, a happy man, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
Thank YouLed Zeppelin

Our eyes began to see when we were childrenToo young to know the meaning
Of the magic we were feelingDown deep inside
Gazing blindly at the starsthinking all the world was ours.
Our love was just a flowerBloom in Spring
Wilt in FallThought I heard you call
But you're not really there
This love ain't meant for childrenReach too quickly for the sun
Love will soon fade away
We were living in a fairytaleLiving happily ever after
In our land of dreams and laughterTo the day we die
We didn't know that childish schemesOften end in broken dreams
Our love was just a sunsetSo colorful and bright
But then it faded into nightJust like the dreams we sharedI reach out to touch your hair
But you're not really there
This love ain't meant for childrenReach too quickly for the sun
Love will soon fade away
My love for you today would fill the oceansWhy must I be denied
If only you were by my sideI know you'd never leave
I often wonder if you knowThis love inside of me still grows
Our love was like a mountainRising so majestically
But it crumbled to the seaJust like the plans we madeI thought I heard you callI can't believe she's there
This love ain't meant for childrenNow that she and I have grown
Love is here to stay...
