Stand By Me- Bachata Version lyrics
Royce
When the night has come and the land is dark
Y la luna es la luz que brilla ante mí
Miedo no, no tendré, oh I won't me asustaré
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin', darlin' stand by me, oh-oh stand by me
Oh stand, junto a mí (junto a mí), junto a mí.
Y aunque las montañas o el cielo caiga
No voy a preocuparme porque sé
Que tú estás, junto a mí
No lloraré, no lloraré oh, I won't shed a tear
Porque sé (porque sé), que tú estás (que tú estás) junto a mí
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/p/prince-royce-lyrics/stand-by-me,,-bachata-version-lyrics.html ]
And darlin', darlin' stand by me, oh stand by me
Oh stand, stand by me, stand by me
That's class right there
And darlin', darlin' stand by me, oh-oh stand by me
Oh stand, junto a mi, junto a mi
And darlin', darlin' stand by me (by me), oh-oh stand by me (by me)
Come on, swagger, too strong
Whats my name? Royce
And darlin', darlin' stand by me, oh-oh stand by me
Oh stand, junto a mí, junto a mí
Born This Way lyrics
It doesn't matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M
Just put your paws up
'Cause you were born this way, baby
My mama told me when I was young
We are all born superstars
She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir
"There's nothin' wrong with lovin' who you are"
She said, "'Cause He made you perfect, babe"
"So hold your head up, girl and you you'll go far,
Listen to me when I say"
I'm beautiful in my way,
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
(Born this way)
Ooo, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way
Ooo, there ain't other way
Baby, I was born this way
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen Don't be!
Give yourself prudence and love your friends
Subway kid, rejoice of truth
In the religion of the insecure
I must be myself, respect my youth
A different lover is not a sin
Believe capital H-I-M (hey, hey, hey)
I love my life, I love this record and
Mi amore vole fe yah
I'm beautiful in my way,
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you're set
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/l/lady-gaga-lyrics/born-this-way-lyrics.html ]
I'm on the right track, baby I was born this way
Ooo, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way Baby, I was born this way
Ooo, there ain't other way Baby, I was born way
I'm on the right track, baby I was born this way
Don't be drag, just be a queen Whether you're broke or evergreen
You're black, white, beige, chola descent
You're lebanese, you're orient Whether life's disabilities
Left you outcast, bullied or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
'Cause baby, you were born this way
No matter gay, straight or bi
Lesbian, transgendered life
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born to survive
No matter black, white or beige
Chola or orient made
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born to be brave
I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way, yeah!
Ooo, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way
Ooo, there ain't other way
Baby, I was born this way
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
I was born this way, hey!
I was born this wayy, hey!
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way, hey!
I was born this way, hey!
I was born this way, hey!
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way, hey!
The Time lyrics
(This is international)
(Big mega radio smasher)
(will.i.am)
I’ve had the time of my life
And I’ve never felt this way before
And I swear this is true
And I owe it all to you
(Fergie)
I’ve had the time of my life
And I’ve never felt this way before
And I swear this is true
And I owe it all to you
You-you-you-you-you
You-you-you-you-you
You-you-you-you-you-you-y-y-y-y-you
Dirty bit Dirty bit
(will.i.am)
I-I came up in here to rock
Light a fire, make it hot
I don’t wanna take no pictures
I just wanna take some shots
So come on, let’s go
Let’s lose control
Let’s do it all night
‘Til we can’t do it no mo’
People rockin’ to the sound
Turn it up and watch it pound
We gon’ rock it to the top
Until the roof come burnin’ down
Yeah, it’s hot in herrre
The temperaturrre
Has got these ladies
Gettin’ freakierrr
(Fergie)
I got freaky, freaky, baby
I was chillin’ with my ladies
I didn’t come to get bougie
I came here to get crazy
I was born to get wiiild
That’s my styyyle
If you didn’t know that
Well, baby, now you know now
‘Cause I’m! Havin’!
A good! Time! With you!
I’m tellin’ you
I’ve had the time of my life
And I’ve never felt this way before
And I swear this is true
And I owe it all to you
Easy come, easy go, that's just how you live
Oh, take, take, take it all but you never give
Should've known you was trouble from the first kiss
Had your eyes wide open, why were they open?
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, no, no, no
Black, black, black and blue, beat me 'til I'm numb
Tell the devil I said, hey, when you get back to where you're from
Mad women, bad women, that's just what you are, yeah
You'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car
{ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/b/bruno-mars-lyrics/grenade-lyrics.html }
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, yes, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for ya, baby
But you won't do the same
If my body was on fire
Ooh, you'd watch me burn down in flames
You said you loved me, you're a liar
'Cause you never, ever, ever did, baby
But darling, I'd still catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, you won't do the same
You wouldn't do the same
Ooh, you never do the same
No, no, no, no

Interlude:

Quiero
Quiero tomar la medicina ideal
Que libere en mi la dopamina
Poder sentir que te puedo olvidar
Escapar de ti solo una noche
Fúga de amor desilusion
Carpe diem hoy soy resurrección
La noche es anestesia, woah oh
Me envuelve y me da amnesia, woah oh
Mi mente da mil vueltas, woah oh
Me tengo que olvidar de ti hoy
Lo noche es mi anestesia
No quiero en mi vida más tragedias
Prefiero aceptar la soledad
Que ser la dama de las camelias
Y morir en la esquizofrenia
Fúga de amor desilusion
Carpe diem hoy soy resurrección
La noche es anestesia, woah oh
Me envuelve y me da amnesia, woah oh
Mi mente da mil vueltas, woah oh
Me tengo que olvidar de ti hoy
Lo noche es mi anestesia
Cómo pudo nuestro amor acabar tan mal
No pensé que pasaría
Cuanto tiempo mas la amnesia me va a durar
Me da igual solo quiero olvidar
La dopamina que tenía la perdí
La noche es anestesia, woah oh
Me envuelve y me da amnesia, woah oh
Mi mente da mil vueltas, woah oh
Me tengo que olvidar de ti hoy
Lo noche es mi anestesia
La noche es anestesia, woah oh
Me envuelve y me da amnesia, woah oh
Mi mente da mil vueltas, woah oh
Me tengo que olvidar de ti hoy
Woah oh Woah oh Woah oh

Born This Way lyrics
It doesn't matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M
Just put your paws up
'Cause you were born this way, baby
My mama told me when I was young
We are all born superstars
She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir
"There's nothin' wrong with lovin' who you are"
She said, "'Cause He made you perfect, babe"
"So hold your head up, girl and you you'll go far,
Listen to me when I say"
I'm beautiful in my way,
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
(Born this way)
Ooo, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way
Ooo, there ain't other way
Baby, I was born this way
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen Don't be!
Give yourself prudence and love your friends
Subway kid, rejoice of truth
In the religion of the insecure
I must be myself, respect my youth
A different lover is not a sin
Believe capital H-I-M (hey, hey, hey)
I love my life, I love this record and
Mi amore vole fe yah
I'm beautiful in my way,
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you're set
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/l/lady-gaga-lyrics/born-this-way-lyrics.html ]
I'm on the right track, baby I was born this way
Ooo, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way Baby, I was born this way
Ooo, there ain't other way Baby, I was born way
I'm on the right track, baby I was born this way
Don't be drag, just be a queen Whether you're broke or evergreen
You're black, white, beige, chola descent
You're lebanese, you're orient Whether life's disabilities
Left you outcast, bullied or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
'Cause baby, you were born this way
No matter gay, straight or bi
Lesbian, transgendered life
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born to survive
No matter black, white or beige
Chola or orient made
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born to be brave
I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes

Don't hide yourself in regret,

The Time lyrics
(This is international)
(Big mega radio smasher)
(will.i.am)
I’ve had the time of my life
And I’ve never felt this way before
And I swear this is true
And I owe it all to you
(Fergie)
I’ve had the time of my life
And I’ve never felt this way before
And I swear this is true
And I owe it all to you
You-you-you-you-you
You-you-you-you-you
You-you-you-you-you-you-y-y-y-y-you
Dirty bit Dirty bit
(will.i.am)
I-I came up in here to rock
Light a fire, make it hot
I don’t wanna take no pictures
I just wanna take some shots
So come on, let’s go
Let’s lose control
Let’s do it all night
‘Til we can’t do it no mo’
People rockin’ to the sound
Turn it up and watch it pound
We gon’ rock it to the top
Until the roof come burnin’ down
Yeah, it’s hot in herrre
The temperaturrre
Has got these ladies
Gettin’ freakierrr
(Fergie)
I got freaky, freaky, baby
I was chillin’ with my ladies
I didn’t come to get bougie
I came here to get crazy
I was born to get wiiild
That’s my styyyle
If you didn’t know that
Well, baby, now you know now
‘Cause I’m! Havin’!
A good! Time! With you!
I’m tellin’ you
I’ve had the time of my life
And I’ve never felt this way before
And I swear this is true
And I owe it all to you
Easy come, easy go, that's just how you live
Oh, take, take, take it all but you never give
Should've known you was trouble from the first kiss
Had your eyes wide open, why were they open?
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, no, no, no
Black, black, black and blue, beat me 'til I'm numb
Tell the devil I said, hey, when you get back to where you're from
Mad women, bad women, that's just what you are, yeah
You'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car
{ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/b/bruno-mars-lyrics/grenade-lyrics.html }
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, yes, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for ya, baby
But you won't do the same
If my body was on fire
Ooh, you'd watch me burn down in flames
You said you loved me, you're a liar
'Cause you never, ever, ever did, baby
But darling, I'd still catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, you won't do the same
You wouldn't do the same
Ooh, you never do the same
No, no, no, no

Quiero
Quiero tomar la medicina ideal
Que libere en mi la dopamina
Poder sentir que te puedo olvidar
Escapar de ti solo una noche
Fúga de amor desilusion
Carpe diem hoy soy resurrección
La noche es anestesia, woah oh
Me envuelve y me da amnesia, woah oh
Mi mente da mil vueltas, woah oh
Me tengo que olvidar de ti hoy
Lo noche es mi anestesia
No quiero en mi vida más tragedias
Prefiero aceptar la soledad
Que ser la dama de las camelias
Y morir en la esquizofrenia
Fúga de amor desilusion
Carpe diem hoy soy resurrección
La noche es anestesia, woah oh
Me envuelve y me da amnesia, woah oh
Mi mente da mil vueltas, woah oh
Me tengo que olvidar de ti hoy
Lo noche es mi anestesia
Cómo pudo nuestro amor acabar tan mal
No pensé que pasaría
Cuanto tiempo mas la amnesia me va a durar
Me da igual solo quiero olvidar
La dopamina que tenía la perdí
La noche es anestesia, woah oh
Me envuelve y me da amnesia, woah oh
Mi mente da mil vueltas, woah oh
Me tengo que olvidar de ti hoy
Lo noche es mi anestesia
La noche es anestesia, woah oh
Me envuelve y me da amnesia, woah oh
Mi mente da mil vueltas, woah oh
Me tengo que olvidar de ti hoy
Woah oh Woah oh Woah oh

A Matter Of Trust - Billy Joel
Intro: D A Bm
D A Bm A D
Some love is just a lie of the heart
D A Bm A
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
A
And they may not want it to end
A A7 D
But it will, it's just a question of when
I've lived long enough to have learned
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
But that won't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust
I know you're an emotional girl
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
I can't offer you proof
But you're gonna face a moment of truth
It's hard when you're always afraid
You just recover when another belief is betrayed
So break my heart if you must
It's a matter of trust
Em
You can't go the distance
F#m
With too much resistance
G F#m
I know you have doubts
Bm G A D
But for God's sake don't shut me out
This time you've got nothing to lose
You can take it, you can leave it
Whatever you choose
I won't hold back anything
And I'll walk away a fool or a king
Some love is just a lie of the mind
It's make believe until it's only a matter of time
And some might have learned to adjust
But then it never was a matter of trust
I'm sure you're aware love
We've both had our share of
Believing too long
When the whole situation was wrong
Some love is just a lie of the soul
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control
After you've heard lie upon lie
There can hardly be a question of why
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
But that can't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust
BEN E. KING - STAND BY ME
A F#m D E A
When the night has come
F#m
And the land is dark
D E A
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No, I won't be afraid,
Fm
No, I won't be afraid
D E A
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.
Chorus:
So, darling, darling, stand by me,
Fm
Oh, stand by me.
D E A
Oh, stand, stand by me,
Stand by me.
If the sea that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountain should crumble in the sea,
I won't cry, I won't cry,
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.
Chorus
Beatallica

Summer Themed Songs
SONG: Summer in the City by Lovin' Spoonful
capo III -- therefore, when you play an Am chord, a Cm chord is sounded.
[verse 1:]
Am Am/G D/F# F E
Hot town, summer in the city; back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Am Am/G D/F# F E
Been down, isn't it a pity; doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
E E7
All around, people looking half dead
Am A
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
[chorus:]
D G
But at night it's a different world
D G
Go out and find a girl
D G
Come-on come-on and dance all night
D G
Despite the heat it'll be alright
Bm E
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
Bm E
That the days can't be like the nights
Bm E
In the summer, in the city
Bm E
In the summer, in the city
[verse 2:]
Cool town, evening in the city; Dressing so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for a kitty; Gonna look in every corner of the city
Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop

Song notes:
-----------
During whole song there is one background guitar, which plays riffs.
I haven't tried to make it out, I've just made out tab-guitar.
But during INTRO and LAST VERSE is this guitar silent, so in this parts
riff-guitar appears.
If you'll interested in riffs, look below, there are riffs but they're bad.
They're just made to fit the song.

Piano Chords :
C G F C G F C
The rangers had a homecoming in Harlem late last night
And the Magic Rat drove his sleek machine over the Jersey state line
Barefoot girl sitting on the hood of a Dodge
Drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain
D E F G
The Rat pulls into town rolls up his pants
D E F C
Together they take a stab at romance and disappear down Flamingo Lane
Well the Maximum Lawman run down Flamingo chasing the Rat and the barefootgirl
And the kids round here look just like shadows always quiet, holding hands
From the churches to the jails tonight all is silence in the world
D E F G D E F G C
As we take our stand down in Jun-gle-land
C G F C G F C
The midnight gang's assembled and picked a rendezvous for the night
They'll meet `neath that giant Exxon sign that brings this fair city light
Man there's an opera out on the Turnpike
There's a ballet being fought out in the alley
Until the local cops, Cherry Tops, rips this holy night
D E F G
The street's alive as secret debts are paid
D E F G
Contacts made, they vanish unseen
D E F G
Kids flash guitars just like switch-blades
D E F G
hustling for the record machine
Bb D C C
The hungry and the hunted explode into rock'n'roll bands
Bb (Bb)
That face off against each other out in the street down in
D F C G
In the parking lot the visionaries dress in the latest rage
D F F G G
Inside the backstreet girls are dancing to the records that the D.J. plays
D F
Lonely-hearted lovers struggle in dark corners
C G C F G G
Desperate as the night moves on, just a look and a whisper, and they're gone
Sax solo
Beneath the city two hearts beat
Soul engines running through a night so tender in a bedroom locked
In whispers of soft refusal and then surrender in the tunnels uptown
The Rat's own dream guns him down as shots echo down them hallways in thenight
No one watches when the ambulance pulls away
Or as the girl shuts out the bedroom light
D C
Outside the street's on fire in a real death waltz
D C D
Between flesh and what's fantasy and the poets down here
F G D
Don't write nothing at all, they just stand back and let it all be
Bb
And in the quick of the night they reach for their moment
D Bb
And try to make an honest stand but they wind up wounded, not even dead
C…
Tonight in Jungleland
END
Sorry there's no solo, but that takes to long to tab.

It's a town full of losers and we're pulling out of here to win

That face off against each other out in the street down in
D F C G
In the parking lot the visionaries dress in the latest rage
D F F G G
Inside the backstreet girls are dancing to the records that the D.J. plays
D F
Lonely-hearted lovers struggle in dark corners
C G C F G G
Desperate as the night moves on, just a look and a whisper, and they're gone
Sax solo
Beneath the city two hearts beat
Soul engines running through a night so tender in a bedroom locked
In whispers of soft refusal and then surrender in the tunnels uptown
The Rat's own dream guns him down as shots echo down them hallways in thenight
No one watches when the ambulance pulls away
Or as the girl shuts out the bedroom light
D C
Outside the street's on fire in a real death waltz
D C D
Between flesh and what's fantasy and the poets down here
F G D
Don't write nothing at all, they just stand back and let it all be
Bb
And in the quick of the night they reach for their moment
D Bb
And try to make an honest stand but they wind up wounded, not even dead
C…
Tonight in Jungleland
END
Sorry there's no solo, but that takes to long to tab.

There were ghosts in the eyes of all the boys you sent away
They drive this dusty beach road in the skeleton frames of

They scream your name at night in the street
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
And in the lonely cool before dawn you hear their engines roaring on
Until you get to the porch, they're gone on the wind so Mary climb in
It's a town full of losers and we're pulling out of here to win
OK, some wierd chords here.

Some Summer Songs
Dexy's Midnight Runners
Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio, he moved a million hearts in mono.
Our mothers cried and sang along and who'd blame them.
Now you're grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever.
Go Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye
and we can sing just like our fathers.
Come on Eileen,
I swear (well he means) At this moment you mean everything,
With you in that dress my thoughts I confess verge on dirty Ah come on Eileen.
These people round here wear beaten down eyes
Sunk in smoke dried faces they're so resigned to what their fate is,
But not us, no not us we are far too young and clever.
Remember Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye
Eileen I'll hum this tune forever.
Come on Eileen, I swear, well he means
Ah come on let's take off everything,
That pretty red dress Eileen (Tell him yes)
Ah come on let's, ah come on Eileen, please.
Dexys Midnight Runners are best known in America as one of new wave's ultimate one-hit wonders, thanks to their 1982 number one smash "Come on Eileen," a distinctive fusion of '80s pop, Celtic folk, and blue-eyed soul. In the U.K., however, they earned a fair amount of critical acclaim and made a greater impression on the public consciousness with their frequent changes in sound, wardrobe, and personnel. Dexys were formed in 1978 by singer/guitarist/songwriter Kevin Rowland and singer/guitarist Kevin "Al" ... Read More

With you in that dress my thoughts I confess verge on dirty Ah come on Eileen.
These people round here wear beaten down eyes
Sunk in smoke dried faces they're so resigned to what their fate is,
But not us, no not us we are far too young and clever.
Remember Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye
Eileen I'll hum this tune forever.
Come on Eileen, I swear, well he means
Ah come on let's take off everything,
That pretty red dress Eileen (Tell him yes)
Ah come on let's, ah come on Eileen, please.
Dexys Midnight Runners are best known in America as one of new wave's ultimate one-hit wonders, thanks to their 1982 number one smash "Come on Eileen," a distinctive fusion of '80s pop, Celtic folk, and blue-eyed soul. In the U.K., however, they earned a fair amount of critical acclaim and made a greater impression on the public consciousness with their frequent changes in sound, wardrobe, and personnel. Dexys were formed in 1978 by singer/guitarist/songwriter Kevin Rowland and singer/guitarist Kevin "Al" ... Read More

A Matter Of Trust - Billy Joel
Intro: D A Bm
D A Bm A D
Some love is just a lie of the heart
D A Bm A
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
A
And they may not want it to end
A A7 D
But it will, it's just a question of when
I've lived long enough to have learned
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
But that won't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust
I know you're an emotional girl
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world
I can't offer you proof
But you're gonna face a moment of truth
It's hard when you're always afraid
You just recover when another belief is betrayed
So break my heart if you must
It's a matter of trust
Em
You can't go the distance
F#m
With too much resistance
G F#m
I know you have doubts
Bm G A D
But for God's sake don't shut me out
This time you've got nothing to lose
You can take it, you can leave it
Whatever you choose
I won't hold back anything
And I'll walk away a fool or a king
Some love is just a lie of the mind
It's make believe until it's only a matter of time
And some might have learned to adjust
But then it never was a matter of trust
I'm sure you're aware love
We've both had our share of
Believing too long
When the whole situation was wrong
Some love is just a lie of the soul
A constant battle for the ultimate state of control
After you've heard lie upon lie
There can hardly be a question of why
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
But that can't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust
BEN E. KING - STAND BY ME
A F#m D E A
When the night has come
F#m
And the land is dark
D E A
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No, I won't be afraid,
Fm
No, I won't be afraid
D E A
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.
Chorus:
So, darling, darling, stand by me,
Fm
Oh, stand by me.
D E A
Oh, stand, stand by me,
Stand by me.
If the sea that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountain should crumble in the sea,
I won't cry, I won't cry,
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me.
Chorus
