CHORUS guitar SOLO I’M ALL GROWN UP NOW, STILL LIKE THE PRETTY GIRLS MORE, STILL BUY MY COCONUT JUICE, AT THE PHIL.

Don't Go 03:34
You take my hand, inside your hand, I kiss your neck and you smile again, and all the gold, and all the silver, could never make me turn you in. 'Cause you kill, the demons in my head, you make me strong, when I am so scared, but I never know if I'm gonna, see tomorrow, so don't you ever, leave me, oh baby, don't go. You make me shine, when I hear you laugh, I feel in ways, like I never have, and all the plastic, and all the cash, could never make me sell my stash. 'Cause you ease the pain, that makes me scream, you make me think, when I can't see a thing, so I never know if I'm gonna, see tomorrow, so don't you ever, leave me, oh baby, don't go. Don't go! guitar solo You give me joy, laying in your bed, I love your eyes and the words you said, and all the power, in all the world, could never, take me from my girl. 'Cause I adore your potion, that tastes so good, you make me calm, when I'm misunderstood (yeah), but I never know if I'm gonna, die tomorrow, so don't you ever, leave me, oh baby, don't go. Don't go! Don't go, I want you, don't go, I need you, don't go, I love you. Don't go, don't go, oh baby, please, please, please, Don't go.

Into the Sun 03:00
1,2,3 4,5,6 I took her down, to the river, she didn't bring her 'suit (where is your 'suit?), so she just stripped naked, all except her hiking boots (oh my gosh), we swam with the minnows, with driftwood everywhere, I kissed her on the forehead, (three kisses), well she didn't seem to care. So... Chorus: We laid down, into the sun, we laid down, until the sun came back 'round. I took her up, to the mountains, she didn't bring her skis (where are your skis?), so she played in the snow, (are you gonna play in the snow all day?) and then she lost the keys (where are the keys?), we had to break into the cabin, so I smashed the window pane (broken glass sound), and that night it was a blizzard (wind sound), but I didn't even complain. (Got Damn it?) Chorus: We laid down, into the sun, we laid down, until the sun came back 'round, we laid down, into the sun, we laid down, until the sun came back 'round. Guitar solo I took her, in an aeroplane, she didn't bring her 'chute (where is your 'chute), so she just ate some candy, and tried to look real cute (you're really cute, you know that?), we reached our destination (here we are), the pilot said jump out (jump out!), I told her to hold on (hold on Deena), she turned and smacked my mouth (smack sound). So... Chorus: We laid down, into the sun, we laid down, until the sun came back 'round, we laid down, into the sun, we laid down, until the sun came back 'round.

YOUR Grace 02:50
Time's gonna take you on a wheel, spin your head, through the great beyond, bring you ahead from the past you left, and send you away, old and gray, but you only die if you grow frail, in your mind, is the plan you scribe, change your words, change your thoughts, you can be one, in eternal love. Chorus: So let your gray skies be, and shine your grace, on me, on me-e-e-e, shine your grace, on me, and let your gray skies... You didn't have to be on this plane, never had life, wouldn't miss it now, but you always have, and always will, can't stop the rain, once it starts to pour, but people laugh at what they see and put blind faith, in what they can't, here is all you have to be, the cosmic force is inside of me. Chorus
5.
Time's a wasting, time's a wasting, people say, never gonna see your home, never gonna be alone, 'cause time's a wasting, time's a wasting, people say, never gonna see your home, never gonna be alone.

Once upon a time, I did all things that you wanted me to, but I did not do, anything that I wanted me to do, 'cause I was too busy helping you, make all of your dreams come true, but now I see, that I was just wasting all of my time on you. Chorus: 'Cause people come and, they go, but where you are I, don't know, man I wish you were, right here, with my money, but what goes up comes, back down, so I won't lay the, smack down, 'cause I know I'll, get mine, and you'll get yours. Time and time again, I would pretend that everything's OK, but nothing's right and everyone else is wrong, but me today, 'cause I was too busy, helping you help yourself, to all you could, but now my eyes are open and I can see, that you're no good. Chorus: 'Cause people come and, they go, but where you are I, don't know, but I wish you were, right here, with my money, but what goes up comes, back down, so I won't lay the, smack down, 'cause I know I'll, get mine, and you'll get yours.

Chorus: 'Cause people come and, they go, but where you are I, don't know, but I wish you were, right here, with my money, but what goes up comes, back down, so I won't lay the, smack down, 'cause I know I'll, get mine, and you'll get yours.

Da da da, da da, da da da Love comes and then it goes, and where it goes, nobody knows, wish I knew what you were thinking, 'cause it's not like before, I'm on the other side of the door, and winter rain is falling down in June, and I hope the tears, will drown the pain that I feel, 'cause now I'm feeling like a fool, so cruel you are, I fell from the start, so now I've got to get away, so someone please, come show me the way. To walk away, and let today, become tomorrow. To walk away, 'cause I'm drowning in the sorrow. Da da da, da da, da da da Love goes and then it's back, and why it does, nobody knows that, wish you knew what I was feeling, 'cause it's not like before, I think I love you even more, and summer rays are shining in December, and tender words, from your lips fall, and I heed them all, 'cause now I'm feeling like a god, how odd it was, not long ago, my blood was so slow, but now I've got to run to you, so please don't leave, 'cause my love is true. Don't walk away, and let today, become tomorrow. Don't walk away, 'cause I'm drowning in the sorrow. Don't walk away, 'cause without you, my life is hollow. Don't walk away, 'cause without you, there's no tomorrow. Don't walk away, and let today, become tomorrow. Baby, don't walk away from me, 'cause I'm drowning in the sorrow.

Take Me Away 02:44
Long day my mind is gone, sitting in a crowd all alone, standing right here by the phone, waiting for you to, take me away, 'cause I can not stay, I'm fading away, a little more everyday. Seven years the tears still fall, one day one week, same as all, screaming softly through hallowed halls, calling for you to, take me away, 'cause I can not stay, I'm fading away, a little more everyday. Take me away, 'cause I can not stay, fading away, a little more everyday. Long day my mind is gone, sitting in a crowd all alone, standing right here by the phone, waiting for you to, take me away, 'cause I can not stay, I'm fading away, a little more everyday. Long long way from home, so tired of being alone, sweet chariot of fire, swing low, 'cause I can't bare to know all I know. (yeah) Long long way from home, I'm so tired of being alone, sweet chariot of fire, swing low, take me away.
