If you have anything to add, mail it to me and I'll update it.

INTRO: Riff 1
VERSE 1: Riff 1
We might kiss when we are alone.
When nobody's watching,
we might take it home.
We might make out when nobody's there.
It's not that we're scared,
it's just that it's delicate
CHORUS: Riff 2
So why do you fill my sorrow
with the words you've borrowed
from the only place you've known?
And why do you sing Hallelujah
if it means nothing to ya?
Why do you sing with me at all?
VERSE 2: Riff 1
We might live like never before.
When there's nothing to give,
well how can we ask for more
We might make love in some sacred place.
The look on your face is delicate
CHORUS: Riff 2
So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
if it means nothing to ya?
Why do you sing with me at all?
Chorus: Riff 1
So why do you fill my sorrow
with the words you've borrowed
from the only place you've known?
And why do you sing Hallelujah
if it means nothing to ya?
Why do you sing with me at all?
2- VOLCANO
CAPO: NONE
Tab by: jimbohonkey (UG user)
The G between F and Am i there to connect the two chords,
so hit it quickly.
INTRO:
VERSE:
Don't hold yourself like that
You'll hurt your knees
I kissed your mouth and back
That's all I need
Don't build your world around
G G F F (tacet)
Volcanoes melt you down
CHORUS:
What I am to you, is not real
What I am to you, you do not need
What I am to you, is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains, and I ask for the sea
VERSE:
Don't throw yourself like that
In front of me
I kissed your mouth your back
Is that all you need?
Don't drag my love around
Volcanoes melt me down
CHORUS:
What I am to you, is not real
What I am to you, you do not need
What I am to you, is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains, and I ask for the sea
BRIDGE:
for what I give to you
Is just what i'm going through
This is nothing new
No no just another phase of finding
what I really need
Is what makes me bleed
And like a new disease
Lord, she's still too young to treat
Outro and end.

4- CANNONBALL
CAPO: 6
Tab by: Andrew Biles (andrewbiles@hotmail.com)
INTRO/VERSE:
CHORUS:
Stones, taught me to fly
Love, taught me to lie
Life, taught me to die
And it's not hard to fall When you float like a cannonball
The chorus lyrics are slightly changed towards the end and he plays the second line of it
3 times at the end, so you'll have to work out the timing for the extra lyrics, but it's
pretty basic. There's a couple of rests thrown in there, just play it a few times and
you'll see what I mean. After that, just play the intro/verse part over, it's slightly
different again, but not by much.
Lyrics:
Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Still a little hard to say what's going on
Still a little bit of your ghost your witness
Still a little BIT of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer EACH DAY
THAT I can't SAY what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball
Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer TO ME
So close that I can't see what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to cry
So come on courage!
Teach me to be shy
'Cause it's not hard to fall
And I don't WANNA scare her
It's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna lose
It's not hard to grow
When you know that you just don't know
5- OLDER CHESTS
CAPO: NONE
Tab by: KustomJarvis (UG user - jarvis0819@yahoo.com)
This a great song, but with a ton of ghost notes. I threw in everything I heard, so
will probably be a few notes that might seem unnecessary in some parts. Play what sounds
better to you.
Let ring throughout and fingerpick
ix3ro/verse
Older chests reveal themselves
like a crack in the wall,
starting small,
grow with time.
And we all seem to need the help
of someone else,
to mend that shelf
with too many books.
Read me your favorite line.
Papa went to other lands,
he found someone who understands
the ticking,
the western man's need to cry.
He came back the other day.
Some things in life may change,
and some things, they stay the same.
Like time.
There's always time
So pass me by,
on my mind.
I'll be fine,
just give me time.
Older gents sit on the fence,
with a cap in hand,
looking grim.
They watch their city change.
Children scream, or so it seems
louder than before
out a door, and into stores
with bigger names.
Mama tried to watch their faces
but these kids, they lost their graces,
and daddy lost at the races
too many times.
She broke down the other day.
Some things in life may change,
but some things, they stay the same.
Like time.

6- AMIE
CAPO: 2
In this case I mixed up two tabs to create a definitive one.
The original tabbers were:
-acoustic_guy87 (UG user)
-HUGH3SY (UG user)
CHORD CHART:
INTRO:
VERSE:
Nothing Unusual; nothing Strange
Close to nothing at all...
The same old scenario; the same old rain
And there's no explosions here.
Then something unusual; something strange
Comes from nothing at all
I saw a spaceship fly by your window
Did you see it dissapear?
CHORUS:
Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe...
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
VERSE:
Nothing unusual; nothing's changed
Just a little older; thats all
You know when you've found it
There's someting I've learned
Cause you feel it when they take it away
hey hey hey...
Something unusual; something strange
Comes from nothing at all
But I'm not a miracle and you are not a saint
Just another soldier on a road to nowhere
CHORUS:
Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe...
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe...
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
It sucks playing this song by yourself at the end because you can't be playing a violin
the same time... hell, I can't play the violin at all! So I tabbed out the violin part
you. Just repeat this...
