/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /
E E A B7 E
I'm a-gonna raise a fuss, I'm a-gonna raise a holler.
E E A B7 E
About a-workin' all summer, just to try to earn a dollar.
A
Every time I call my baby, try to get a date;
- E -
My boss says: No dice son, you gotta work late. / /
A
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do,
E -
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues!
E A B7 E A B7 E

A
Well I didn't go to to work, told the boss I was sick!
- E -
So you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick! / /
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do, 
But there ain't no cure for the summertime blues! 
 
E E A B7 E
I'm gonna take two weeks, gonna have a fine vacation.
E E A B7 E

  2. Folsom Prison Blues

Johnny Cash/Johnny Cash (1955)

E
I hear the train a-comin'; it's rollin' 'round the bend,
E E7
And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when,
A7 E
I'm stuck at Folsom Prison and time keeps draggin' on.
B7 E
But that train keeps a-rollin' on down to San Antone.
 
E
When I was just a baby my momma told me: "Son,
E E7
Always be a good boy; don't ever play with guns."
A7 E
But I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.
B7 E
When I hear that whistle blowin', I hang my head and cry.
 
E
I bet there's rich folk eatin' in a fancy dining car.
E E7
They're prob'ly drinkin' coffee and smokin' big cigars.
A7 E
But I know I had it comin', I know I can't be free.
B7 E
But those people keep a-movin', and that's what tortures me.
 
E
Well if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine,
E E7
I bet I'd move it all a little farther down the line.
A7 E
Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I want to stay.
B7 E
And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away.

But Lola smiled and took me by the hand, Said: Dear boy, I'm gonna make you a man.

  4. Tonight Will be Fine

Leonard Cohen : Songs from a Room (1969)

A E A
Sometimes I find I get to thinking of the past.
A E A
We swore to each other then that our love would surely last.
E A
You kept right on loving, I went on a fast,
E A
Now I am too thin and your love is too vast.
D A D A
But I know from your eyes, And I know from your smile:
D A
That tonight will be fine, will be fine, will be fine,
E E7 A
Will be fine for a while.
 
A E A
I choose the rooms that I live in with care.
A E A
The windows are small and the walls almost bare.
E A
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer.
E A
I listen all night for your step on the stair.
D A D A
But I know from your eyes, And I know from your smile:
D A
That tonight will be fine, will be fine, will be fine,
E E7 A
Will be fine for a while.
 
A E A
Oh sometimes I see her undressing for me.
A E A
She's the soft naked lady love meant her to be.
E A
And she's moving her body so brave and so free.
E A
If I've got to remember that's a fine memory.
D A D A
But I know from your eyes, And I know from your smile:
D A
That tonight will be fine, will be fine, will be fine,
E E7 A
Will be fine for a while.

R. D. Davies / the Kinks: Face to Face (1966)

Intro:
|: Dm Dm/C Dm/B Dm/Bb A A/G A/F A/E :|
Dm C7 F C7
The taxman's taken all my dough And left me in my stately home,
A A/G A/F A/E Dm
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon.
Dm C7 F C7
And I can't sail my yacht, He's taken everything I've got,
A A/G A/F A/E Dm
All I've got's this sunny afternoon.
D7 G7 C7 F A7
Save me, save me, save me from this greed; I got a big fat mama tryin' to break me.
Dm G7 Dm G7 C7
And I love to live so pleasantly - Live this life of luxury;
F A7 Dm Dm/C Dm/B Dm/Bb A A/G A/F A/E
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon - In the summertime.
 
My girlfriend's run off with my car And gone back to her ma and pa, 
Tellin' tales of drunkenness and cruelty. 
Now I'm sittin' here, Sippin' at my ice-cooled beer; 
Lazing on a sunny afternoon. 
Help me, help me, help me sail away. Who give me two good reasons why I are to stay? 
'Cause I love to live so pleasantly - Live this life of luxury; 
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon - In the summertime. 
In the summertime 
Save me, save me, save me from this greed, I got a big fat mama tryin' to break me. 
And I love to live so pleasantly - Live this life of luxury; 
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon - In the summertime. 
In the summertime...

  6. It's All Over Now, Baby Blue

Bob Dylan

G
D G
You must leave now, take what you need you think will last.
D G
But whatever you wish to keep you better grab it fast!
D C G
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun;
D C G
Crying like a fire in the sun.
B7 D
Look out the Saints are comin' through:
|: Am C G :|
It's all over now, Baby Blue.
 
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense. 
Take what you have gathered from coincidence. 
The empty handed painter from your streets 
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets. 
This sky too, is folding under you: 
It's all over now, Baby Blue; It's all over now, Baby Blue. 
 
All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home. 
All your reindeer armies, are all going home. 
The lover who just walked out your door 
Has taken all his blankets from the floor. 
The carpet too, is moving under you: 
It's all over now, Baby Blue; It's all over now, Baby Blue. 
 
Leave your stepping stone behind, something calls for you. 
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you. 
The vagabond who's rapping at your door 
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore. 
Strike another match, go start anew: 
It's all over now, Baby Blue; It's all over now, Baby Blue.

  7. Catch the Wind

Donovan

D5 G5/9
In the chilly hours and minutes
D5 G5/9
of uncertainty I want to be
D5 G A D A
in the warm hold of your lovin' mind.
D5 G5/9
To feel you all around me,
D5 G5/9
and to take your hand along the sand,
D5 G A D A
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.
Em Bm G A A7
De de de dee, de De de de dee, de De de de dee, de Dee de Dee
 
When sundown pales the sky 
I want to hide a while behind your smile 
And ev'rywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find. 
For me to love you now 
would be the sweetest thing, t'would make me sing, 
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind. 
De de de dee... 
 
When rain has hung the leaves with tears 
I want you near to kill my fears 
To help me to leave all my blues behind. 
Standin' in your heart 
is where I want to be and long to be, 
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.

  9. Me and Bobby McGee

Kris Kristofferson / Janis Joplin

Intro
D
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headin' for the trains,
A7
feelin' nearly faded as my jeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rains, 
D
Took us all the way to New Orleans.
 
I took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana 
D7 G
And was blowin' sad while Bobby sang the blues.
G D
With them Windshield wipers slappin' time, and Bobby clappin' hands we finely
A7 D
sang up every song that driver knew.
G D
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.
A7 D
Nothing ain't worth nothing but it's free.
G D
Feeling good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues.
A7
Feeling good was good enough for me,
D E
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.
 
From the coal mines of Kentucky to the California sun 
B7
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul.
Standin' right beside me, Lord, through everything I've done, 
E
Every Night she kept me from the cold.
 
E
Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away;
E7 A
Lookin' for the home and I hope she'll find!
E
And I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday,
B7 E
Holding Bobby's body close to mine.
A E
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose.
B7 E
Nothing ain't worth nothing, But it's free.
 
Feeling good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues. 
Feeling good was good enough for me, 
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee. 

 10. You Ain't Goin' Nowhere

Clouds so swift - Rain won't lift - Gate won't close - Railings froze.

Get your mind off wintertime - You ain't goin' nowhere.
G Am C G
Whoo-ee! Ride me high - Tomorrow's the day My bride's gonna come.
G Am C G
Oh, oh, are we gonna fly, Down in the easy chair!
 
I don't care - How many letters they sent - Morning came and morning went. 
Pick up your money - And pack up your tent - You ain't goin' nowhere. 
Whoo-ee! Ride me high - Tomorrow's the day My bride's gonna come. 
Oh, oh, are we gonna fly, Down in the easy chair! 
 
Buy me a flute - And a gun that shoots - Tailgates and substitutes. 
Strap yourself - To the tree with roots - You ain't goin' nowhere. 
Whoo-ee! Ride me high - Tomorrow's the day My bride's gonna come. 
Oh, oh, are we gonna fly, Down in the easy chair! 
 
Genghis Khan - He could not keep - All his kings - Supplied with sleep. 
We'll climb that hill no matter how steep - When we get up to it. 
Whoo-ee! Ride me high - Tomorrow's the day My bride's gonna come. 
Oh, oh, are we gonna fly, Down in the easy chair!

The day may come when you get old and sick and tired of life;
C D G G7
You just never realized:
C
Maybe the choice you made wasn't really right,
D
but you go out and you don't come back at night.
So I'm just sitting on a fence, you can say I got no sense. 
Tryin' to make up my mind, it really is so hard to find, I'm just sitting on a fence.

 14. Passing Through

Dick Blakeslee / Leonard Cohen: Live Songs (1972)

C F C
I saw Jesus on the cross on a hill called Calvary:
G
"Do you hate mankind for what they done to you?"
C F C
He said, "Talk of love, not hate, things to do - it's getting late.
G C
I've so little time and I'm only passing through."

Passing through, passing through.
C7 F C
Sometimes happy, sometimes blue, glad that I ran into you.
G C
Tell the people that you saw me passing through.
 
I saw Adam leave the Garden with an apple in his hand, 
I said "Now you're out, what are you going to do?" 
"Plant some crops and pray for rain, maybe raise a little cane. 
I'm an orphan now, and I'm only passing through." 
Passing through, passing through... 
 
I was with Washington at Valley Ford, shivering in the snow. 
I said, "How come the men here suffer like they do?" 
"Men will suffer, men will fight, even die for what is right; 
even though they know they're only passing through." 
Passing through, passing through... 
 
I was with Franklin Roosevelt's side on the night before he died. 
He said, "One world must come out of World War Two" (ah, the fool) 
"Yankee, Russian, white or tan," he said, "A man is still a man. 
We're all on one road, we're only passing through." 
Passing through, passing through... 
 
I rode with old Abe Lincoln on that train to Gettysburg, 
I said: “What are we gonna do?” 
He said: “All men must be unconditonally free 
Or there is no reason to be passing through.” 
Passing through, passing through...

 16. Those Were The Days

Gene Raskin

Am Am7
Once upon a time there was a tavern,
A7 Dm
where we used to raise a glass or two.
Am7
Remember how we laughed away the hours,
B7 E
and dreamed of all the great things we would do.
Am Dm
Those were the days, my friend, we thought they'd never end,
G G7 C
we'd sing and dance for ever and a day;
Dm Am
We'd live the life we choose, we'd fight and never loose,
E7 Am
For we were young, and sure to have our way.
A7 Dm
La la la la la la la la la la la la
E7 Am
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days.
 
Then the busy years went rushing by us. 
We lost our starty notions on the way. 
If by chance I'd see you in the tavern, 
we'd smiled at one another, and we'd say: 
repeat chorus
 
Just tonight I stood before the tavern. 
Nothing seemed the way it used to be. 
In the glass I saw a strange reflection, 
was that lonley woman really me? 
repeat chorus
 
Through the door there came familiar laughter. 
I saw your face and heard you call my name. 
Oh, my friend, we're older, but no wiser. 
For in our hearts the dream are still the same. 
repeat chorus

 17. St. James Infirmary

trad.

Em Am Em C B7
I went down to old Joe's barroom, On the corner by the square.
Em Am Em C B7 Em Am
Well, the drinks were served as usual, And the usual crowd was there,
Em B7 Em
And the usual crowd was there.
 
Em Am Em C B
In a corner stood old Joe McKennedy, His eyes all bloodshot and red.
Em Am Em C B7 Em Am
He turned to the crowd around him, And these were the words he said,
Em B7 Em
And these were the words he said:
 
Em Am Em C B7
I went to St. James infirmary, I saw my baby there.
Em Am Em
She was layed out on a long white table,
C B7 Em Am Em B7 Em
So sweet, so cold, so fair, So sweet, so cold, so fair!
 
Went up to see the doctor, "She's very low," he said; 
Went back to see my baby: 
Good God! She's lying there dead! Good God! She's lying there dead! 
 
"Let her go, let her go, God bless her, Wherever she may be! 
She can search this wide world over, 
And never find a man like me, And never find a man like me! 
 
Well, if I die, please won't you bury me With my high top Stetson hat! 
Put a twenty Dollar gold piece on my watchchain, 
to let the boys know that I'm standing pat, to let the boys know that I'm standing pat! 
 
Get six gamblers to carry my coffin, Let six pretty girls sing me a song! 
Put a dixieland band behind my hearse wagon, 
To raise Hell while they roll me along, To raise Hell while they roll me along 
 
Now that's the end of my story; Let's have another round of booze 
And if anyone should ask you: 
I've got the St. James Infirmary blues, I've got the St. James Infirmary blues! 
Let her go, let her go, God bless her,...

repeat after each line in verse
 
E A B A E E A B A
I live in an apparmtent on the ninety-ninth floor of my block
E A B E E A B A
I sit at home lookin' out my window imagining the world has stopped
E A B E E A B A
Then in flies a guy who's all dressed up just like a Union Jack

E G#m A B
Hey you get off of my cloud
D B E E A B A
Don't hang around, 'cause two's a crowd on my cloud!
 
The telephone is ringing I say "Hi who's there on the line?" 
A voice says "Hi hello how are you?" "Well I guess I am doin' fine!" 
He says "It's three a.m. there's too much noise don't you people want to go to bed? 
Just cause you feel so good, do you have to drive me out of my head?" 
CHORUS
 
I was sick and tired, fed up with things and decided to take a drive down town. 
It was so very quiet and peaceful, there was nobody, not a soul around. 
I laid myself down, I was so tired and I started to dream. 
In the morning the parking tickets were just like flags stuck on my windscreen! 
CHORUS

C D Am G
So, so you think you can tell, heaven from hell, blue skies from pain.
D C Am
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail, a smile from a veil.
G
Do you think you can tell?
 
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts, 
hot ashes for trees hot air for a cool breeze. 
Cold comfort for change. And did you exchange 
A walk in a part of the war 
For a lead role in a cage. 
 
G Em G Em G Em A7sus Em A7sus G G
How, how I wish you were here. 
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl year, after year. 
Running over the same old ground, what did we found? 
The same old fears, wish you were here.

 27. Always Look on the Bright Side of Life

Monty Python

Am D7 G Em
Some things in life are bad - they can really make you mad.

Other things just make you swear and curse.

When you're chewing on large gristle - don't grumble - give a whistle
A7 D

G Em Am D7 G Em Am D7
And always look at the bright side of life (whistle)
G Em Am D7 G Em Am D7
Always look on the light side of life (whistle)

If life seems jolly rotten - there's something you've forgotten

And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing!
Am D7 G Em
When you're feeling in the dumps - don't be silly chums

Just purse your lips and whistle that's the thing:
G Em Am D7 G Em Am D7
And always look at the bright side of life (whistle)
G Em Am D7 G Em Am D7
Come on, Always look on the bright side of life (whistle)

Forget about your sin - give the audience a grin

So always look on the bright side of death (whistle)

Just before you draw your terminal breath. (whistle)

You see it's all a show - keep 'em laughing as you go;
