American Girl
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers
Intro:

D E7 G A D E7 G A7

Well, she was an American girl, raised on promises
D E7 G A

She couldn't help thinking that there was a little more to life, somewhere else
D E7 G A

After all it was a great big world, with lots of places to run to
D G Em

Yeah and if she had to die tryin', she, had one little promise she was gonna keep
A


Chorus:
Oh yeah, alright, take it easy baby
G A D

Make it last all night, she was an American girl.
Bm G A D


Well it was kind of cold that night, she stood alone on the balcony
D E7 G A

Yeh, she could hear the cars roll by out on four forty one like waves crashing on the beach,
D E7 G A

And for one desperate moment there, he crept back in her memory
D G Em

God it's so painful when something that's so close, is still so far out of reach
A

D G D D/F# G
Peter Pumpkinhead came to town, Spreading wisdom and cash around.
D D/F# G D D/F# G
Fed the starving and housed the poor, Showed the Vatican what gold's for.


G A Bm G A Bm
But he made too many enemies, Of the people who would keep us on our knees.
G A
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin,
G Gm/Bb A/C# D D/C# D/B D/A G G/F# Em A
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?

Peter Pumpkinhead brought to shame, Governments who would slur his name.
Plots and sex scandals failed outright,
Peter merely said "Any kind of love is alright"

But he made too many enemies, Of the people who would keep us on our knees.
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin, Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?

D G
Peter Pumpkinhead was too good, Had him nailed to a chunk of wood.
He died grinning on live TV,
Hanging there he looked a lot like you and an awful lot like me.

G A Bm
But he made too many enemies, Of the people who would keep us on our knees.
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin,
G Gm/Bb A/C# D D/C# D/B
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?
G A
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin,

Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkin?

Los Lobos (Cover)

Intro: (repeat a few times)
G C/G G


I had a hard run, runnin' from your window.
C/G F/G C/G G C/G
I was all night running, Lord I wonder if you care,
I had a run in, run around and run down.
Run around the corner, Lord I run smack in to a tree.


Chorus
I had to move, really had to move,
Dm Am G C D

That's why if you please, I am on my bendin' knees,
C G D C

Bertha don't you come around here anymore.
Am C G C/G

Dressed myself in green, I went down unto the sea.
Try to see what's goin' down, Oh try to read between the lines.
Had a feelin' I was fallin', fallin', fallin', Lord I turned around to see,
Heard a sweet voice callin', Lord you was commin' after me.


Chorus
anymore ....

Riff to verse
Ran into a rainstorm, I ducked back into a Bar door.
It's all night pourin', pourin', pourin', Lord but not a drop on me.
Test me, test me/ Test me, test me/ Why don't you arrest me?
Throw me in to the jailhouse, Lord until the sun goes down.


Chorus 2x
anymore, anymore, anymore ...

You say you won't, I say you will
You make me crazy, But I want you still

When you say those words, Look me in the eye

We push each other, 'Till we've had enough
When it's all you've got, Call it love

Celluloid Heroes
The Kinks
Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star. And everybody's in movies, it doesn't matter who you are.
D A G D F#m Bm G A

There are stars in every city, In every house and on every street.
Bm F#m G A

And if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard, Their names are written in concrete.
C G A D

Don't step on Greta Garbo, as you walk down the Boulevard.
She looks so weak and fragile, that's why she tried to be so hard.
But they turned her into a princess, And they sat her on a throne.
But she turned her back on stardom, Because she wanted to be alone.

Chorus
You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard
C G D

Some that you recognize, some that you've hardly even heard of
C G D

People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame
C G D

Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain
C G D

Rudolph Valentino looks very much alive. And he looks up ladies dresses as they sadly pass him by.
Avoid stepping on Bela Lugosi, 'Cause he's liable to turn and bite.
But stand close by Bette Davis, Because hers was such a lonely life.

If you covered him with garbage, George Sanders would still have style.
And if you stamped on Mickey Rooney, He would still turn round and smile.
But please don't tread on dearest Marilyn, 'Cause she's not very tough.
She should have been made of iron or steel, But she was only made of flesh and blood.


repeat Chorus
Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star, And everybody's in show biz, it doesn't matter who you are.
And those who are successful, Be always on your guard, Success walks hand in hand with failure.
Along Hollywood Boulevard

Chorus 2
I wish my life was non-stop Hollywood movie show. A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain, And celluloid heroes never really die


repeat Chorus
La la la la....
Oh, celluloid heroes never feel any pain, Oh, celluloid heroes never really die.

There's pidgeons down on Market Square, She's standin' in her underwear.
Lookin' down from a hotel room, Nightfall will be comin' soon.

It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone, I hit the last number, I walked to the road.

TULSA TIME
Don Williams

I left Oklahoma, driving in a Pontiac, Just about to lose my mind.
E B7
I was goin' to Arizona, maybe on to California,

Where the people all live so fine.
E
My baby said I'z crazy. My momma called me lazy,

I was Gonna show 'em all this time.
B7
Cause you know I ain't no foolin', I don't need no more schoolin'.

I was born to just walk the line.
E


CHORUS #1
Livin' on Tulsa time, Livin' on Tulsa time.
Well, you know I've been through it,
When I set my watch back to it,
Livin' on Tulsa time.

Well, there I was in Hollywood, wishin' I was doin' good,
Talkin' on the telephone line.
But they don't need my in the movies, and nobody sings my songs.
Guess I'm just a wastin' time.
Well, then I got to thinkin', man I'm really sinkin'
And I really had a flash this time:
I had no business leavin', and nobody would be grievin',
If I went on back to Tulsa time.


CHORUS #2
Livin' on Tulsa time, Livin' on Tulsa time.
Gonna set my watch back to it,
'Cause you know I been through it,
Livin' on Tulsa time.

YOU'VE GOT TO HIDE YOUR LOVE AWAY
(Beatles)




G Dsus4 Fadd9 G C Fadd9 C
Here I stand head in hand, turn my face to the wall

G Dsus4 Fadd9 G C Fadd9 C D
If she's gone I can't go on, feeling two foot small

G Dsus4 F G C F C
Everywhere people stare each and every day

G Dsus4 Fadd9 G C F C D D/C D/B D/A
I can see them laugh at me and I hear them say ay ay


G C Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
Hey youve got to hide your love away
Hey youve got to hide your love away


G Dsus4 Fadd9 G C Fadd9 C
How can I even try, I can never win

G Dsus4 Fadd9 G C Fadd9 C D
Hearing them, seeing them in the state I'm in

G Dsus4 F G C F C
How could she say to me love will find away

G D F G C F C D D/C D/B D/A
Gather round all you clown, let me hear you say ay ay


G C Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
Hey youve got to hide your love away
Hey youve got to hide your love away
