Trouble - Coldplay

green = you
orange=both
grey=me


Oh, no, I see
A spider web, it's tangled up with me,
And I lost my head,
The thought of all the stupid things I'd said,


Oh, no, what's this?
A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle,
So I turned to run,
The thought of all the stupid things I've done,


And I never meant to cause you trouble,
And I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well, if I ever caused you trouble,
Oh no, I never meant to do you harm.


Oh, no, I see
A spider web, and it's me in the middle,
So I twist and turn,
Here am I in my little bubble,
Singing out...


I never meant to cause you trouble,
And I never meant to do you wrong,

And I, well, if I ever caused you trouble,
Oh, no, I never meant to do you harm.


They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me

Phantom of the Opera


CHRISTINE
In sleep he sang to me
In dreams he came
That voice which calls to me and speaks my name
And do I dream again for now I find
The Phantom of the Opera is there
Inside my mind

PHANTOM
Sing once again with me
Our strange duet
My power over you grows stronger yet
And though you turn from me to glance behind
The Phantom of the Opera is there
Inside your mind.

CHRISTINE
Those who have seen your face
Draw back in fear
I am the mask you wear

PHANTOM
It's me they hear...

BOTH
Your/My spirit and my/your voice in one combined
The Phantom of the Opera is there/here
Inside my/your mind

{INSTRUMENTAL 4 BARS}


PHANTOM
In all your fantasies, you always knew
that man and mystery

CHRISTINE
Were both in you

BOTH
And in this labyrinth
where night is blind
the Phantom of the Opera is there/here,
inside my/your mind

CHRISTINE
[Singing...]He's there, the phantom of the opera
 

PHANTOM
Sing, my Angel of Music


CHRISTINE[Singing...]He's there, the phantom of the opera

PHANTOM
Sing, my Angel

CHRISTINE
[Singing...] Ahhh, Ahhh, Ahhh

PHANTOM
Sing for me
Sing, my Angel!
Sing for me!

Big Yellow Taxi - Counting Crows & Vanessa Carlton


green = you
orange=both
grey=me  

[Adam Duritz]
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot


[Vanessa Carlton]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop


[Adam]
They took all the trees, and put em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them
No, no, no
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise, and put up a parking lot


[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop


[Adam]
Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT
I don't care about spots on my apples,
Leave me the birds and the bees
Please
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey now, they paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not?


[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop


[Adam]
Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi took my girl away
Now don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Well, don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not?
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey hey hey
Paved paradise and put up a parking lot


[Vanessa]
Ooooh, bop bop bop
Ooooh, bop bop bop

orange=both
grey=me  

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night

 

Roxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets of money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right


Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light


Roxanne (Put on the red light)

I loved you since I knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have you to tell just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy


I know my mind is made up
So put away your make up
Told you once I won't tell you again
It's a bad way


Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light


Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)
Roxanne (Put on the red light)

"Wanted Dead Or Alive" - Bon Jovi

green = you
orange=both
grey=me  

It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems we're wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd drive all night just to get back home


[Chorus:]
I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive


Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days
And the people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're alone all you do is think


[Chorus:]
I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

 

I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere, and I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces an I've rocked them all


I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side


I'm wanted dead or alive
 

[Ad lib]
And I ride, dead or alive
I still drive, dead or alive
Dead or alive [x4]

ColdPlay - "The Scientist"

green = you
orange=both
grey=me  


Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I'll set you apart


Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions
Oh let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming in tails
Heads on a science apart


Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start.

I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart

Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are


Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start


Ooooohhhhhhh [4x]

U2 - Pride (In the Name of Love)

green = you
orange=both
grey=me  
One man come in the name of love
One man come and go
One man come he to justify
One man to overthrow

In the name of love!
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love!
What more? In the name of love!

One man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man he resist
One man washed on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kiss

In the name of love!
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love!
What more? In the name of love!

Early morning, April 4
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky

Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride

In the name of love!
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love!
What more in the name of love?

In the name of love...
