Chasing Cars – Snow Patrol
April 27, 2008
A E D A
We'll do it all, everything, on our own.
A E D A
We don't need anything, or anyone.
A E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
D A
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
A E D A
I don't quite know how to say how I feel
A E D A
Those three words, I said too much, but not enough.
A E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
D A
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
A E
Forget what we're told, before we get too old
D A
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.
A E D A
Let's waste time, chasing cars, around our heads.
A E D A
I need your grace to remind me, to find my own.
A E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
D A
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
A E
Forget what we're told, before we get too old
D A
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.
A E
All that I am, all that I ever was
D A
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
A E
I don't know where, confused about how as well
D A
just know that these things will never change for us at all.
A E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
D A
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
Leaving on a Jet Plane – John Denver
April 27, 2008
G C
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
G C
I'm standing here outside your door
G C D
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
G C
But the dawn is breakin' it's early morn
G C
The taxi's waitin' he's blowin' his horn
G C D
Already I'm so lonesome I could die
Chorus:
G C G C
So kiss me and smile for me; tell me that you'll wait for me
G C D
Hold me like you'll never let me go
G C
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
G C G
Don't know when I'll be back again
C D
Oh, babe, I hate to go....
G C
There's so many times I've let you down
G C
So many times I've played around
G C D
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
G C
Every place I go, I'll think of you
G C
Every song I sing, I'll sing for you
G C D
When I come back I'll bring your wedding ring
Chorus:
G C G C
So kiss me and smile for me; tell me that you'll wait for me
G C D
Hold me like you'll never let me go
G C
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
G C G
Don't know when I'll be back again
C D
Oh, babe, I hate to go....
G C
Now the time has come to leave you
G C
One more time, let me kiss you
G C D
Then close your eyes, I'll be on my way
G C
Dream about the days to come
G C
When I won't have to leave alone
G C D
About the times I won't have to say
Chorus:
G C G C
So kiss me and smile for me; tell me that you'll wait for me
G C D
Hold me like you'll never let me go
G C
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
G C G
Don't know when I'll be back again
C D
Oh, babe, I hate to go....
G C
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
G C G
Don't know when I'll be back again

Oh, babe, I hate to go....
A Waltz for a Night
April 8, 2008
I’ve encountered this song from the movie: Before Sunset. In the movie, this song is written by Julie Delpy’s character for Ethan Hawke’s character. It’s simple but romantic. Here’s the tab for the song and below is the lyrics along with a youtube video of the scene where it’s played courtesy of grbomr. You can try to listen and view how she plays and practice by playing along with her to help you learn the song (that’s what I did).

Lyrics
Let me sing you a waltz
Out of nowhere, out of my thoughts
Let me sing you a waltz
About this one night stand
You were for me that night
Everything I always dreamt of in life
But now you’re gone
You are far gone
All the way to your island of rain
It was for you just a one night thing
But you were much more to me
Just so you know
I don’t care what they say
I know what you meant for me that day
I just wanted another try
I just wanted another night
Even if it doesn’t seem quite right
You meant for me much more
Than anyone I’ve met before
One single night with you little Jesse
Is worth a thousand with anybody
I have no bitterness, my sweet
I’ll never forget this one night thing
Even tomorrow, another arms
My heart will stay yours until I die
Let me sing you a waltz
Out of nowhere, out of my blues
Let me sing you a waltz
About this lovely one night stand
