    You can talk to me
    Stevie Nicks

    Intro chords (same as verse chords):
    F Bb Gm7(353333)(VERSE):
    (F)
    I can see we're thinkin' bout the same things
    (Bb)
    And I can see your expression when the phone rings
    (Gm7)
    We both know there's something happening here

    (F)
    Well, there's no sense in dancing round the subject
    (Bb)
    A wound gets worse when it's treated with neglect
    (Gm7)
    Don't turn around there's nothing here to fear
    (F)

    (CHORUS):
    You can talk to me
    (F)
    Talk to me
    (Bb)
    You can talk to me
    (Gm7)
    You can set your
    (F)
    secrets free, baby

    (VERSE):Dusty words lying under carpets
    Seldom heard well must you keep your secrets
    Locked inside hidden safe from view

    Well, is it all that hardIs it all that tough
    Well, I've shown you all my cards now isn't that enough
    You can hide your hurt
    But, there's something you can do

    (CHORUS)
    (VERSE):
    Though we lay face to face and cheek to cheek
    Our voices stray from the common ground where theycould meet
    The walls run high, to veil a swelling tear
    Oh, let the walls burn down, set your secrets free
    You can break their bounds, cause you're safe with me
    You can lose your doubt, cause you'll find no dangernot here

    (CHORUS)

    Oh, I can see you running...
    I can see you running
    I can see you running all the way back home

    I can see your expression when the phone rings
    And I can see that you're thinkin' bout the same things
    Is it all that hardIs it all that tough
    Well, you've taken all there is now baby
    Isn't that enough
    Well, I can see you runnin'...I can see you runnin'All the way back

    Revvin' up your engine
    Listen to her howlin' roar
    Metal under tension
    Beggin' you to touch and go
    Highway to the DANGER Zone
    Ride into the DANGER Zone
    Headin' into twilight
    Spreadin' out her wings tonight
    She got you jumpin' off the track
    And shovin' into overdrive
    Highway to the DANGER Zone
    I'll take you
    Right into the DANGER Zone
    You'll never say hello to you
    Until you get it on the red line overload
    You'll never know what you can do
    Until you get it up as high as you can go
    Out along the edges
    Always where I burn to be
    The further on the edge
    The hotter the intensity
    Highway to the DANGER Zone
    Gonna take you
    Right into the DANGER Zone
    Highway to the DANGER Zone

    ============Copperhead Road Steve Earle===

    []
    [D] Well, my name's John Lee Peddimore.
    Same as my daddy and his daddy's before.
    You hardly ever saw grandaddy down here.
    He'd only come to town about twice a year.
    To buy a hundred pounds o' yeast and some copper line.
    Everybody knew that we made moonshine.

    [G] Now, the revenuer man wanted granddaddy bad.
    [D] Headed up the holler with everything he had.
    [G] Before my time, but I've been told.
    [D] He never come back from Copperhead Road.
    []
    [D] My daddy ran the whisky in a big block Dodge.
    Bought it at an auction at the Mason's Lodge.
    Johnson County Sheriff painted on the side.
    Just shot coat of primer, then he looked inside.
    Well, him and my uncle tore that ENGINE down.
    I still remember that rumbling sound.
    [G] Then the sheriff came around in the middle of the nite.
    [D] Heard momma crying that something wasn't rite.
    [G] He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly load.
    [D] You could smell the whisky burning down Copperhead Road.
    []
    *Bridge*
    []
    [D] I volunteered for the army on my birthday.
    They draft the white trash first, round hear anyway.
    I done two tours of duty in Viet Nam.
    I came home with a brand new plan.
    I take the seed from Columbia and Mexico.
    I just plant it up a holler down Copperhead Road.
    [G] Now the D.E.A.'s got a chopper in the air.
    [D] I wake up screamin' like I'm back over there.
    [G] I learned a thing or two from Charlie, don't you know.
    [D] You better stay away from Copperhead Road.
    Copperhead Road
    Copperhead Road
    Ha. Copperhead Road

    I'm going to take some liberty with the word match here. COPPERHEAD = COPPERLINE

    Because it's a great song. :tongue: I like Copperhead Road too.

    James Taylor - Copperline

    Even the old folks never knew
    Why they call it like they do
    I was wondering since the age of two
    Down on copperline
    Copper head, copper beech
    Copper kettles sitting side by each
    Copper coil, cup o'georgia peach
    Down on copperline
    Half a mile down to morgan creek
    Leaning heavy on the end of the week
    Hercules and a hog-nosed snake
    Down on copperline
    We were down on copperline

    One summer night on the copperline
    Slip away past supper time
    Wood smoke and moonshine
    Down on copperline
    One time I saw my daddy dance
    Watched him moving like a man in a trance
    He brought it back from the war in france
    Down onto copperline
    Branch water and tomato wine
    Creosote and turpentine
    Sour mash and new moon shine
    Down on copperline
    Down on copperline

    First kiss ever I took
    Like a page from a romance book
    The sky opened and the earth shook
    Down on copperline
    Down on copperline
    Took a fall from a windy height
    I only knew how to hold on tight
    And pray for love enough to last all night
    Down on copperline
    Day breaks and the boys wakes up
    And the dog barks and the birds sings
    And the sap rises and the angels sigh, yeah

    I tried to go back, as if I could
    All spec house and plywood
    Tore up and tore up good
    Down on copperline
    It doesn't come as a surprise to me
    It doesn't touch my memory
    Man I'm lifting up and rising free
    Down on over copperline
    Half a mile down to morgan creek
    I'm only living for the end of the week
    Hercules and a hog-nosed snake
    Down on copperline, yeah
    Take me down on copperline
    Oh, down on copperline
    Take me down on copperline

    And now the young Monsieur and Madame
    A
    Have rung the chapel bell

    Your momma don't dance and your daddy don't Rock and Roll
    Your momma don't dance and your daddy don't Rock and Roll
    When evenin' rolls around and it's time to go to town
    Where do you go - To Rock and Roll

    The OLD FOLKS say that ya gotta end your date by ten
    If you're out on a date and you bring her home late,it's a sin
    There just ain't no excuse and you know you're gonna lose you never win
    I'll say it again

    After The Glitter Fades
    G C D
    Well I never thought I'd make it here in Hollywood,
    G C D
    I never thought I'd ever wanna stay
    .G C D
    What I seem to touch these days has turned to gold.
    C D G
    What I seem to want, well you know I'll find away.

    CHORUS:
    C D G
    For me it's the only life I'll ever know,
    C D G
    and love is only one fine star away.
    C D G
    Even though the living is sometimes laced with lies,
    C D G
    it's alright, the feeling remains even after the glitter fades.

    The loneliness of a one night stand is hard to take.
    We all chase something and maybe this is a dream.
    The timeless face of a ROCK AND ROLL woman, while her heart breaks.
    Oh you know, the dream keeps coming even when you forget to feel.

    CHORUS:
    CHORUS:
    Oh you know, the dream keeps coming even when you forget to feel.
    Oh you know, the dream keeps coming even when you forget to feel.

    American WOMAN, stay away from me
    American WOMAN, mamma let me be

    I got more important things to do
    Than spend my time growin' old with you

    Just got home from Illinois, lock the front DOOR, oh boy!
    Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch.
    Imagination sets in, pretty soon I'm singing,

    Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back DOOR.
    There's a giant doing cartwheels,
    A statue wearing high heels.
    Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn.
    A dinosaur Victrola listening to Buck Owens.

    I'm gonna be a HAPPY idiot
    And struggle for the legal tender
    Where the ads take aim and lay their claim
    To the heart and the soul of the spender
    And believe in whatever may lie
    In those things that money can buy
    where true love could have been a contender
    Are you there?
    Say a prayer for the Pretender.
    Who started out so young and strong
    Only to surrender.

    Don't want to be an American IDIOT
    Don't want a nation under the new media
    And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
    The subliminal mind *kitten* America.

    Welcome to a new kind of tension.
    All across the alien nation.
    Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
    Television dreams of tomorrow.
    We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
    For that's enough to argue.

    Tonight you're mine Completely.
    You give your love
    So sweetly.
    Tonight the li-i-ight
    Of love is in your eyes,
    But will you love me TOMORROW?

    Stay away from my window
    Stay away from my back door too
    Disconnect the telephone line
    Relax baby and draw that blind

    Kick off your shoes and sit right down
    Loosen off that pretty French gown
    Let me pour you a good long drink
    Ooh baby don't you hesitate cause

    Tonights the NIGHT
    It's gonna be alright
    Cause I love you girl
    Ain't nobody gonna stop us now

    Come To My Window
    Melissa Etheridge

    Chorus:
    Eb G# Fm B
    Come to my WINDOW
    Eb G##
    Crawl inside
    Fm B
    Wait by the light of the moon
    Eb G# Fm-B
    Come to my window
    Eb G# Fm-B
    I'll be home soon

    Verse:
    G# Eb
    I would dial the numbers
    B
    Just to listen to your breath
    G# Eb
    I would stand inside my hell
    B
    And hold the hand of death
    G# Eb
    You dont know how far I'd go
    B
    To ease this precious ache
    G# Eb
    You dont know how much I'd give
    B
    Or how much I can take

    Refrain:
    Cm-G#
    Just to reach you
    Cm-G#
    Just to reach you
    B
    Oh to reach you


    Repeat Chorus


    Verse:(repeat verse chords)
    Keeping my eyes open
    I cannot afford to sleep
    Giving away promises
    I know that I cant keep
    Nothing fills the blackness
    That has seeped into my chest
    I need you in my blood
    I am forsaking all the rest


    Repeat Refrain
    Repeat Chorus

    Bridge:
    Fm
    I dont care what they think
    Cm
    I dont care what they say
    G# B
    What do they know about this love anyway


    Repeat Chorus 2x

    I see the bad MOON arising.
    I see trouble on the way.
    I see earthquakes and lightnin'.
    I see bad times today.

    Don't go around tonight,
    Well, it's bound to take your life,
    There's a bad MOON on the rise.

    BAD SIDE OF THE MOON


    It seems as though I've lived my life
    On the bad side of the moon
    To stir your dregs in sickness still
    Without the rustic spoon
    Common people live with me
    Where the light has never shone
    And the hornets flock like hummingbirds
    To speak in a foreign tongue
    I'm a light world away
    From the people who make me stay
    Sitting on the bad side of the moon
    There ain't no need for watchdogs here
    To justify our ways
    We live our life in manacles
    The main cause of our stay
    Exiled here from other worlds
    My sentence comes too soon
    Why should I be made to pay
    On the bad side of the moon

    The lunatic is on the grass
    The lunatic is on the grass
    Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs
    Got to keep the loonies on the path.

    The lunatic is in the hall
    The lunatics are in my hall
    The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
    And every day the paper boy brings more.

    And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
    And if there is no room upon the hill
    And if your head explodes with dark forbodings too
    I'll see you on the dark SIDE OF THE MOON.
