If it just won’t sing for you
‘Cause all that’s left has gone away
And there’s nothing there for you to prove

Oh, look what you’ve done
You’ve made a fool of everyone
Oh well, it seems likes such fun
Until you lose what you had won

Give me back my point of view
‘Cause I just can’t think for you
I can hardly hear you say
What should I do, well you choose

Oh, look what you’ve done
You’ve made a fool of everyone
Oh well, it seems likes such fun
Until you lose what you had won

Oh, look what you’ve done
You’ve made a fool of everyone
A fool of everyone
A fool of everyone

Take my photo off the wall
If it just won’t sing for you
‘Cause all that’s left has gone away
And there’s nothing there for you to do

Oh, look what you’ve done
You’ve made a fool of everyone
Oh well, it seems likes such fun
Until you lose what you had won

Oh, look what you’ve done
You’ve made a fool of everyone
A fool of everyone
A fool of everyone

AFI Lyric Miss Murder

Friday, December 21st, 2007

Just discovered this song AFI by lyric miss murder and wanted to make it available.

Hey, Miss Murder can I
Hey, Miss Murder can I
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life?

With just a look they shook,
And heavens bowed before him.
Simply a look can break your heart.

The stars that pierced the sky
He left them all behind
We’re left to wonder why
He left us all behind

Hey, Miss Murder can I
Hey, Miss Murder can I
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life?

Dreams of his crash won’t pass
Or how they all adored him
Beauty will last when spiraled down

The stars that mystify
He left them all behind
And now his children cry
He left us all behind

Hey, Miss Murder can I
Hey, Miss Murder can I
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life?

What’s the rift that twists within this furthest mystery?
I would gladly bet my life upon it
At the cost of love your ray of light will fizzle out
Without hope
When the empty sand just flowing through our empty skin
Ever searching for what we were promised
Reaching THROUGH THE COLD AND RAIN we’LL never let go
They won’t ever let us PUT our filthy hands upon it

Hey, Miss Murder can I
Hey, Miss Murder can I
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life?

Hey, Miss Murder can I
Hey, Miss Murder can I
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life?

One night to be confused
one night to speed up truth
we had a promise made
four hands and then away

both under influense
we had devine scent
to know what to say
mind is a razorblade

to call for hands of above
to lean on
wouldn’t be good enough
for me, no

one night of magic rush
the start a simple touch
one night to push and scream
and then releaf

ten days of perfect tunes
the colors red and blue
we had a promise made
we were in love

to call for hands of above
to lean on
wouldn’t be good enough
for me, no

to call for hands of above
to lean on
wouldn’t be good enough

and you, you knew the hands of the devil
and you, kept us awake with wolf teeths
sharing different heartbeats
in one night

to call for hands of above
to lean on
wouldn’t be good enough
for me, no

to call for hands of above
to lean on
wouldn’t be good enough
for me, no

Cupids Choke Hold Lyric

Friday, December 21st, 2007

Take a look at my girlfriend
She’s the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot

Take a jumbo across the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I’m hoping it’s going to come true
But there’s not a lot I can do

Could we have kippers for breakfast
Mummy dear, Mummy dear
They got to have ‘em in Texas
‘Cause everyone’s a millionaire

I’m a winner, I’m a sinner
Do you want my autograph
I’m a loser, what a joker
I’m playing my jokes upon you
While there’s nothing better to do, hey

Ba ba da dum, ba ba, da-d’ do da do da do
Ba ba da dum, ba ba, da-d’ do da do da do
La la la, la la la, la la la la

Don’t you look at my girlfriend, girlfriend
‘Cause she’s the only one I got
Not much of a girlfriend, girlfriend
I never seem to get a lot – What’s she got? Not a lot

Take a jumbo across the water
Like to see America
See the girls in California
I’m hoping it’s going to come true
But there’s not a lot I can do, hey

Ba ba da dum, ba ba, da-d’ do da do da do
Ba ba da dum, ba ba, da-d’ do da do da do
Hey u-um, hey u-um, hey u-um, hey u-um
Hey u-um, hey u-um, hey u-um, hey u-um

I’m lazy and you have all the tab now and can figure out which figures are played when by listening to the song.

listen close, as close as I am to you
like the bell of liberty, I’ll ring a sound that’s true

and days go by and seasons too
in time our love may digress with the words we can renew
I’ll tell you that I
I love you by and by
I don’t know if I’d survive
without a friend like you in my life

and I know words can be the worst to prevail
how it is I feel for you it’s hard for me to say
but if we keep it simple I think it’s better that way
tangled words tend to lead my messages astray

I’ll tell you that I
I love you by and by
I don’t know if I’d survive
without a friend like you in my life

this web we weave holds us hand in hand
and if we loosen our grips we may weaken these strands
so lets reinforce our love and let it echo through the land
and if we don’t we may find ourselves washed up with the sand

I’ll tell you that I
I love you by and by
I don’t know if I’d survive
without a friend like you in my life

Going no where

Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression
No expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow
No tomorrow

And I find I kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had

I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very

Mad world
Mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
And I feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen
Sit and listen

Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me
No one new me
Hello teacher tell me what’s my lesson
Look right through me
Look right through me

And I find I kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had

I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very

Mad world
Mad world
Enlarging your world
Mad world

Play Rhy Fig. 3 eight times for third chorus and outro.

Come fly down, like a singing bird
Sings your name, I am still the same
Black and white, no you’re not to blame
Holly sweet, put me down to shame

Jack and coke, please take off your coat
Come and dance, shuffle with a glance
Come and smile, please stay here a while
When you’re gone, bring in for the dawn

Lights in the car in the park
I’m falling on my face I know who we are
And I ain’t looking down for the rest of the night
A bullet in my head ended late last night

It’s in my head
(My head) x2

Come face down, lyin on the ground
record time, your words they always-rhyme
this is strange strange boy
with this favorite toy
In your room

She’s shaking in the car with the gun in her hands
Falling over love and a sweet romance
And I ain’t never thought it could come down to this
A bullet in my head, with the sweetest kiss
It’s in my head

It’s in my head
(My head)x2

She’s shaking in the car with the gun in her hands
Falling over love and a sweet romance
And I ain’t never thought it could come down to this
A bullet in my head, sweet romance its in my head, my head

It’s in my head

In the light of the sun
Is there anyone, ohh it has begun
O dear you look so lost
Eyes are red and tears are shed this world you must have crossed you said
You don‚Äôt know me, and you don’t even care
ooo yea
She said you don’t know me, and you don’t wear my chains ooo yea

Essential yet appealed
Carry all your thoughts, across an open field
When the flowers gaze at you
they’re not the only ones who cry when they see you
You said you don’t know me, and you don‚Äôt even care
ooo yea
And she said you don’t know me, and you don’t wear my
chains
ooo yea

She said I think I’m going to Boston
I think I’ll start a new life
I think I’ll start it over
No one knows my name
I’ll get out of California
I’m tired of the weather
I think I’ll get a lover
I’ll fly them out to Spain

I think I’ll go to Boston
I think that I’m just tired
I think a new town to leave this all behind
I think I need a sun rise
I’m tired of the sun set
Here it’s nice in the summer
Some snow would be nice
Ooo yea

In Boston! No one knows my name
Yeaaa
No one knows my name
No one knows my name

In Boston no one knows my name

Brett Dennen & His Almost Amazing Album

Sunday, February 26th, 2006

Update: If you’re looking for tablature or lyrics for Brett Dennen songs, click here.
link to Brett Dennen at iTunes

While trying out Pandora.com I came across a song that brought me up from my work when it struck me as something completely original and brilliant. The song was called “Desert Sunsrise” by Brett Dennen and the moment I heard it I knew I was a fan. Not long after that I heard “By and By” from the same artist and from there I went straight to iTunes to buy the album.

“Brett Dennen” by Brett Dennen is an album with eleven unique tracks that would probably be classified as folk but that has its fingers in other genres as well (check out the jazz in “Desert Sunsrise”, the gospel in “All We Have”, reggae in “Day By Day”). Brett Dennen‘s guitar-playing sounds very John Mayer in it’s purcussively jazz/folk quality, but his voice is all his own. It’s child-like, innocent quality, with soft “D”s and short vowels, reminds me of both Kalai and (dare I say it) Adam Sandler (especially in “By and By”, “Blessed”, “Don’t Forget”, and “When I Go”). But his vocal maturity comes out in his Jason Mraz style of chromatic note changes when, with deliberate and controlled emphasis, each note in a quick series is clearly produced.

Having heard “Desert Sunsrise” and “By and By” before purchasing the album I was expecting more of that caliber. I have to admit to more than a little disappointment, however, when I discovered that these two were the only ones that kept my attention. Brett Dennen‘s guitar-work and sublime vocals were not enough to save “Blessed”, “Don’t Forget”, and “Day By Day” which were annoyingly repetitive, “Make the Most” and “All We Have”, which were didactic and left me feeling preached-to, and “When I Go” where his vocal melody just kind of wanders without any real focal point. For me this last point is most alarming and, while it was most apparent in “When I Go”, other songs suffer from it as well. Brett Dennen, at times, seems more interested in delivering lines than he does producing the melodies that he is capable of. As his career progresses I hope he learns that the music itself must sell the audience before anyone pays attention to his lyrical sermons.

If you would like a free flavor of Brett Dennen‘s music he has a free download on his site. But know that it is far from his best. For two treasures download “By and By” and “Desert Sunsrise”. “Nothing Lasts Forever”, “Just Like the Moon”, and “Day By Day” are also ok.
But the rest are not good at all and I would not recommend them. –Andrew
