INTRO:
Intro riff:
VERSE:
I'm waiting for my moment to come
I'm waiting for the movie to begin
I'm waiting for a revelation
I'm waiting for someone to count me in
PRE-CHORUS:
Cos now I only see my dreams, in everything I touch
Feel their cold hands on, everything that I love
Cold like some, magnificant skyline
Out of my reach, but always in my eyeline now
CHORUS:
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
VERSE:
I fashioned you from jewels and stone
I made you in the image of myself
I gave you everything you wanted
So you would never know anything else
PRE-CHORUS:
But everytime I reach for you, you slip through my fingers
Into cold sunlight, laughing at the things that
I had planned, the map of my world gets
Smaller as I sit here, pulling at the loose threads now
CHORUS (with riff):
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling
When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling
BRIDGE:
Bm - A x9 (Tom speaks over these chords)
Did you wanna be a winner?
Did you wanna be an icon?
Did you wanna be famous?
Did you wanna be the president?
Did you wanna start a war?
Did you wanna have a family?
Did you wanna be in love?
Did you wanna be in love?
(I never saw the light
I never saw the light
I waited up all night
But I never saw the light)
CHORUS(with riff):
When we fall in love
We're just falling
In love with ourselves
We're spiralling
We're tumbling down
We're spiralling
Tied up to the ground
We're spiralling

2-LOVERS ARE LOSING
VERSE:
I dreamed I was drowning
In the river Thames
I dreamed I had nothing at all
Nothing but my own skin
PRECHORUS:
Slipped away from your open hands
Into river
Saw your face looking back at me
I saw my past, and I saw my future
CHORUS:
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
'Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But any way you look at this
Looks like
The lovers are losing
VERSE:
I dreamed I was watching
The young lovers dance
I reached out to touch your hair
But I was watching from a distance
PRECHORUS:
We cling to love like a skidding car
Clings to a corner
I tried to hold onto what we are
The more I squeeze, the quicker we're over
CHORUS:
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
'Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But any way you look at this
Looks like
The lovers are losing
BRIDGE:

CHORUS:
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have
'Cos you don't like the way they seem to be going
You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging
Put it all back together
But in the final reckoning
Looks like
The lovers are losing
You take the pieces of the dreams that you have

You cut them up and spread them out on the floor
You're full of hope as you begin rearranging

3- BETTER THAN THIS
INTRO: G - Am - Em
Riff (relative to capo):
VERSE:
Is this what you meant?
Is this what you dreamed of?
When you were making your plans
Shaking the dirt off?
Do you feel like
You and I belong? (Oh woah oh!)
Just keep your eyes on the road
And nothing can go wrong
CHORUS:
You can do so much better than this
You can do so much better than this
Riff (relative to capo):
VERSE:
I've been checking my sums
Oh where did the time go?
Holding my photograph
Up to the window
Through the paper
And refracted sun (Oh woah oh!)
I can see all the things
I wish that I'd done
CHORUS:
You can hang your hopes on the medicine
You can put your faith in the phone in
You can tell yourself you're doing your best
You can do so much better than this
BRIDGE 1:
Get a grip on yourself
Get a grip on yourself
Could've been something, but you're too late
And you weren't invited anyway
CHORUS:
Cos the photograph showed the wrong man
Cos there is no soap star holding your hand
You don't see yourself in the freeze frame
Must be someone else using your name
BRIDGE 2:
And everyone will be the same
And everyone will gloat
And everywhere you'll see your name
In every shop window
OUTRO CHORUS:
It's better than this
You can do so much better than this
You can do so much better than this
You can do so much better than this

KEANE
INTRO: Am - C - G - Am - C - F x2
Riff (relative to capo):
VERSE:
In the pearl grey room
One afternoon, in one afternoon
What you gonna do?
I hang on your words but there's nothing new
You take a beautiful thing
Pull off a wing, pull off a wing
)m
The safety pin
They never shine quite as bright again
CHORUS (intro riff played over the chords):
But you haven't told me anything
That I didn't already know
No you haven't said a single thing
That I didn't already know
VERSE(Same C - G - F - G progression):
Everything I love
Stuck in the mud, stuck in the mud
Stuck in a rut
Not a piece in your puzzle or a paper cut
So same time next week
Kiss on the cheek, kiss on the cheek
And say after me
Everything's tied up nice and neat
CHORUS (intro riff played over the chords):
But you haven't told me anything
That I didn't already know
No you haven't sold me anything
That I didn't already own
BRIDGE:
I feel for you
I really do
Nothing adds up like you want it too
No words can mend
This fix I'm in
Give me your words, I won't even blink
Right between the eyes, I won't feel a thing
CHORUS (intro riff played over the chords):
But you haven't told me anything
That I didn't already know
No you haven't said a single thing

5- PERFECT SYMMETRY
INTRO: | C - C/B | G | Dm - F | Am - G |
VERSE:
I shake through the wreckage for signs of life
Scrolling through the paragraphs
Clicking through the photographs
I wish I could make sense of what we do
Burning down the capitals
The wisest of the animals
PRECHORUS:
Who are you?
What are you living for?
Tooth for tooth
Maybe we'll go one more
CHORUS:
This life
is lived in perfect symmetry
What I do
That will be done to me
VERSE:
Read page after page of analysis
Looking for the final score
We're no closer than we were before
PRE-CHORUS:
Who are you?
What are you fighting for?
Holy truth
Brother I choose this mortal....
CHORUS:
...life,
lived in perfect symmetry
What I do
That will be done to me
As the needle
slips into the run-out groove
Love
Maybe you'll feel it too
BRIDGE:
And maybe you'll find life is unkind
And over so soon
There is no golden gate
There's no heaven waiting for you
Oh boy, you oughta leave this town
Get out while you can
The meter's running down
The voices in the streets you love
Everything is better when you hear that shout
Woah!
Woah!
Woah!
CHOIR:
Spineless dreamers
Hide in churches
Pieces of, pieces of
Rush hour buses
I dream in e-mails
Worn-out phrases

slips into the run-out groove
Maybe you'll feel it too
Maybe you'll feel it too

6- YOU DON'T SEE ME
VERSE:
Like beautiful dawns, all made up and bright
Radiant people, in splintering light
All moving at the speed of life
Reflecting in each others' eyes
But you're moving so fast
Through this beautiful scene
CHORUS:
You don't see me
You don't see me

Who turn on your axis, revolve around you
All spinning outwards from your sun

Everything you see

You don't see me
You don't see me
No, you don't see me

Such a beautiful view
I guess you've seen it all

INTRO: G - Am - Dm - C - F x2
Riff:
VERSE:
Was it all in real time
Or was it just in my mind
Or was I just a ghost passing through you?
Clinging to the wreckage
Until I got the message
Hanging at the edge of the room
PRECHORUS:
Give me something that's real
Give me half of your bitterest pill
Something from under the surface
You actually feel
CHORUS:
We say these words again and again
But they still sound the same
It was in your eyes, in your eyes
They were just easy lies
VERSE:
The lightest words are heavy
And promises are easy
And no one's ever happy or sad for very long
But just because I said it
It doesn't mean I meant it
I guess that was the way all along
PRECHORUS:
I'm just shaping the sound
I'm just turning the syllables round
Dipping my toe in the water
And watching you drown
CHORUS:
We say these words again and again
But they still sound the same
It was in my eyes, in my eyes
They were just easy lies
BRIDGE:
And it's been a long time waiting
And it's been a lifetime in the making
SOLO:
CHORUS:
I said when you are alone and afraid
I will come to your aid
Was it just a dream, just a dream
'cos was it real to me

But they still sound the same
Say these words again and again
And again and again

INTRO: G - C
VERSE: (same schords as intro)
At the start of the news day, the fires begin
In words and in pictures, but I'm not listening
I'm not taking it in
I'm going to go to the country, where nothing goes on
Going to bury my head, where I can't hear the sound of bombs
Playing along
CHORUS:
Me, I'm just playing along
You and I, so many good people all
Just playing along

I'm gonna go to a bar, where is the jukebox is on
Going to shut out the noise, with a rock'n'roll song
Playing along
BRIDGE:
I'm going to turn up the volume
I'm going to turn up the volume
I'm going to turn up the volume
Till I can't even think
Tell us a tale of the proud and the free
Sing us a swingtime American melody
From 'Follow The Fleet'

Me, I'm just playing along
You and I, a billion people all
Just playing along
OUTRO:
I'm going to turn up the volume

We are just the monkeys, who fell out of the trees
We are blisters on the earth
We are not the flowers, we're the strangling weeds
In the meadow
And love is just our way of looking out for ourselves
When we don't want to live alone
So step into the vacuum, tear off your clothes
And be born again
CHORUS:
Pretend that you're alone now
And everything's gone
Just animal reflex
There's no one looking on
Forget about fashion
Forget about the law
Pretend that you're alone now
VERSE:
I wonder what I'd do, if I could wake up every morning
With a clean slate
I'd burn through the cities, I'd tear through the towns
Cos there's no deals to make
So break out of the cages, the delicate structures
We cling to all our lives
Cos we are just the monkeys, who fell out of the trees
When we were trying to fly
CHORUS:
Pretend that you're alone now
And everything's gone
Just primal desire
No right and no wrong
Forget about the future
Forget about blame
Pretend that you're alone now
Pretend that you're alone now
SOLO: C | Em - F - C | Em - Dm
BRIDGE (SOLO played over):
She's not waiting for tomorrow
And she has no love in her eyes
Oh no, I wanna come down right now
s
But oh no(?), I wanna get out right now
CHORUS:
Pretend that you're alone now
And everything's gone
Just animal reflex
There's no one looking
