The Ballad of Love and Hate Tuning: EADGBE CAPO 4 Tabbed By: Richware Love writes a letter and sends it to hate. My vacations ending. Im coming home late. The weather was fine and the ocean was great and I cant wait to see you again. Hate reads the letter and throws it away. "No one here cares if you go or you stay. I barely even noticed that you were a---way. Ill see you or I wot whatever." Love sings a song as she sails through the sky. The water looks bluer through her pretty eyes. And everyone knows it whenever she flies and also when she comes down. Hate keeps his head up and walks through the street. Every stranger and drifter he greets. And shakes hands with every loner he meets with a serious look on his face. Love arrives safely with suitcase in tow. Carrying with her the good things we know. A reason to live and a reason to grow. To trust. To hope. To care. Hate sits alone on the hood of his car. Without much regard to the moon or the stars. Lazily killing the last of a jar of the strongest stuff you can drink. Love takes a taxi a young man drives. As soon as he sees her hope fills his eyes. But tears follow after at the end of the ride cause he might never see her again. Hate gets home lucky to still be alive. He screams oer the sidewalk and into the drive. The clock in the kitchen says two fifty five And the clock in the kitchen is slow. Love has been waiting patient and kind. Just wanting a phone call or some kind of sign That the one that she cares for whos out of his mind Will make it back safe to her arms. Hate stumbles forward and leans in the door. Weary head hung eyes to the floor. He says "Love Im sorry" and she says "What for? Im your and thats it Whatever. I should not have been gone for so long. Im yours and thats it forever." Youre mine and thats it forever. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 7.

But when the feelings there It can lift you up take you anywhere With the gravel beneath you and the limbs above If anybody asks you where you’re coming from Chorus Say yes we live uncertainty and disappointments have to be And everyday we might be facing more And yes we live in desparate times with faded words and shakey rhymes Theres only one thing here worth hoping for With Lucifer beneath you and God above If anyone of them asks you what youre living of Chorus ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 11.I Would Be Sad Tuning: EADGBE CAPO 2 Tabbed By: Irishboy27 There is on small riff between every transition from G to Em. Simply walk down 3-2-0 on the E string. I would be sad because you left me all alone. I would be sad because the lies that you had told. I would be sad because I got left by a girl that I adore. I would be sad because the love I had before. Verse 1: I meant what I said when I said I would settle down with you although I know its not something that you were asking me to do. And I know we are young but we wont always be so marry me; lets not be that predictable young couple changing moving on. But I can tell by watching you that theres no chance of pushing through. The odds are so against us; you know most young love it ends like this. Chorus: I would be sad because you left me all alone. I would be sad because the lies that you had told. I would be sad because I got left by a girl that I adore. I would be sad because the love I had before. Verse 2: I meant what I said when I said I would rearrange my plans and change for you. You know me; Ive always been the kind with easy confidence. Confident enough to honestly beleive that nothing out there stopping me especially not someone who’s not loving me. Now listen here I told you I could live on with out loving you. I was bluffing then but it seems that just might have been the truth. Well my dad told me "One day son this girl will think of what shes done and hurting you will be the first of many more regrets to come." And he said "If she doesnt call then it’s her fault and its her loss." I say "Its not that simple see but then again it just may be." Chorus/Ending: I would be sad because you left me all alone. I would be sad because the lies that you had told. I would be sad because I got left by a girl that I adore. I would be sad because the love I had before. I would be sad because the love I had before. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 12.Pretty Girl From San Diego Tuning: EADGBE CAPO 1 Tabbed By: Macheeoo Tell her tell her what Im thinkin Tell her tell her what Im dreamin And hey she just might just understand Baby would you listen to me Come across the kitchen to me And I will tell ya best I can Bout how I know you love me And how I want to love you back People people people they make it sound so easy They say just do what your heart tells you to But sometimes you cannot feel it Sometimes you cannot hear it Sometimes it wont talk back to you And yeah I know you love me And yeah I want to love you back And how I know you love me And how I want to love you bad Far away I hear the rhythm of a song Far away I get the feeling I belong and so do you And it goes like this Oh no no dont want to leave you Oh no I want to keep you Oh but I want to let you be Oh no I don’t want to hear you Say I dont want to be near you Oh but I’ve got to set you free And how I know you love me And how I want to love you back And yeah I know you love me And yeah I want to love you bad Far away I hear the rhythm of a song Far away I get the feeling I belong and so do you And it goes like this La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la la la ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 13.Go To Sleep Tuning: EADGBE Tabbed By: Jgelderloos Intro E----3--2-------------------0-| B----0--0---------3--0--3---1-| G----0--0---------0--0--0---0-| D----0--0---------0--0--0---2-| A----2--2---------2--2--2---3-| e----3--3---------3--3--3-----| LAY BACK LAY BACK GO TO SLEEP MY MAN WIPE THE BLOOD FROM YOUR FACE AND YOUR HANDS FORGIVE YOURSELF IF YOU THINK YOU CAN GO TO SLEEP GO TO SLEEP MY MAN 21 DAYS LOST AT SEA I TOSSED FOR TWENTY TWO YEARS NON STOP I FOUGHT THROUGH THE DESERT PISS DRUNK AND CONFUSED I WALKED I SPIT A TOOTH IN THE PALM OF MY HAND LAY BACK LAY BACK GO TO SLEEP MY MAN WIPE THE BLOOD FROM YOUR FACE AND YOUR HANDS FORGIVE YOURSELF IF YOU THINK YOU CAN GO TO SLEEP GO TO SLEEP MY MAN WELL THE WIND AND THE TREES ARE GANGIN UP ON ME THEY SING MY FUNERAL SONG IN HARMONY I KEEP ASKING FOR HELP FROM MY COMPANY BUT THEY KEEP SINGIN AND SINGIN TO ME (LA LA LA LA LA ) AND SINGING AND SINGING TO ME I WISH THINGS WE DIFFERENT TRUE INDEED BUT EVERYTHING IS SO SHALLOW AS EVERYTHING ABOUT ME I WISH I COULD JUST TAKE MY MONEY AND LEAVE I HOPE THE PEOPLE ON THE GROUND UNDERSTAND I HOPE THE PEOPLE OUT THERE WILL UNDERSTAND LAY BACK LAY BACK GO TO SLEEP MY MAN WIPE THE BLOOD FROM YOUR FACE AND YOUR HANDS FORGIVE YOURSELF IF YOU THINK YOU CAN GO TO SLEEP GO TO SLEEP MY MAN ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 14.Hand-Me-Down Tune Tuning: EADGBE Tabbed By: Skyler25 Intro |--0-----------2--------------------------0-----------------------0--| |--0--0--2--4--4--------------4-----------0-----------------------0--| |--1-----------4--------------------------1------4/6/4------------1--| |--2-----------4----4--6--7--4----4--6--4/2--------------4/6/4----2--| |--2-----------2--------------------------2-----------------------2--| |--0-----------x--------------------------0-----------------------0--| I dreamt of a suit a suit so fine I dressed my words in Sewn and tailor made with song in mind made of melody Stitched by threads of notes with perfect pitch perfectly composed Sound in tune and key a code of rhythm and harmony |-------------------0--| |--4/6/4------------0--| |----------4/6/4----1--| |-------------------2--| |-------------------2--| |-------------------0--| But when I awoke my coat was worn and my words were plain Each song that I sang all the notes were wrong and poorly played Both my sleeves had holes my knees were patched my shoes needed soles No clever disguise no way to hide my offensive tone But I I wish for you more than I can give than I can do Yeah you you deserve the best an anthem not my hand-me-down tune Yeah you you deserve the best an anthem not my hand-me-down tune ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ END!!!
