Lyrics

It's nice to know
That you are with me
It's nice to know
That you were there

And all the time you're thinking of me
It's nice to know that you still care
It's nice to know when the chips are down
It's nice to know...you're always around

And now you know when you see me
Count on me...I'll be around

It's nice to know
That you are with me
It's nice to know
You were there
And all the time you're thinking of me
It's nice to know that you still care

C Dm
Rollin down the lonely road
C Dm
Searchin for a sign
C Dm
That will lead me to
C Dm
Something to satisfy

--------- CHORUS ------------

Em
Can't stand still
F
I'll make it I will
G F
At least I know
Em Dm
I'll sleep well tonight Because I
C
Gave it a try

------------------------------

C Dm
C Dm

C Dm
With your memory on my mind
C Dm
I know sometimes it doesn't show
C Dm
I'll take this road to the end of the line
C Dm
Then again...I know you know

C Dm
Takin time to listen to
C Dm
The rythm of the lonely road
C Dm
The path that leads me to you
C Dm
Is one I'll always know

Am Em
I took a look at my life tonight
Am Em
Stripped away all those dirty ol' lies
Am Em G F
Then I saw the sunshine in your eyes

I saw the secret tonight

Am Em
I was walkin down the street tonight
Am Em
Wonderin what I'm gonna do with my life
Am Em G F
Then the phone rings and I feel your smile

I saw the secret tonight

Bridge:
Bm D
Your kind words of honesty
A E
Renews my faith in you n me
Bm D
If only you could see
A E
Inside what you do to me

Am Em
Never thought someone so young could see
Am Em
Right thru to the soul of me
Am Em G F
In the end, I don't know anything...But I...

I saw the secret tonight

Am Em
The angels smile when they hear you sing
Am Em
I don't know what tomorrow may bring
Am Em
Mona Lisa don't have anything
G F Am Em
On you....I saw the secret tonight

End on Am

G
Would you give me the apple?
C G
Would you give me the sunshine of your smile?
Am
Take me to that mountain stream.
C
While we're dreaming our dreams.
Cm G
Even if it's just for a little while.

G
Would you give me tomorrow?
C G
Would you tell me that everything is alright?
Am
You know it's funny it seems.
C
My life is shattered with dreams.
Cm G
Even if it's just for a little while.

-------------------------
Bm Em
Somewhere along the way.

Cloudy days seem to fade away.
Am C
Life goes fast we gotta make it last.
Cm G
Even if it's just for a little while.

Capo 2nd fret - drop D tuning - key of E

Do I wanna live
my life over
Do I wanna live
my life sober
Or do I wanna live
like a soldier
No love in my heart
A chip on my shoulder

----- CHORUS ------
D
I am the Seeker
C G
Let me come inside
D
I am the Seeker
C G
I wanna know why
D
Looking for answers
C G
You know what to say
D
I am the Seeker
C G
Let me take you away
----------------------
D riff
And to live for myself
does it make me bolder
I wanna live
as if im older
But you make me feel
as if im younger
Thru your eyes I see
My deep and burning hunger

CHORUS

Now im gonna soar
like wind and fire
So I can live
a little bite higher
Now im gonna ride
like earth and water
Take me to the stars
Make me wonder, why

CHORUS

E
Screen is on and I'm searching online
Across the border line
Too many faces can't make up my mind
So many lies
A E
Just when I thought I was at the end of the line

PRE CHORUS
C#m G#m
Summer's over and you're still the one
A
I know you feel it too
B E
It's too good to be true

A B E
A B E
-------------------------------
CHORUS
E F#m A B E
Too good to be...too good to be...too good to be...too good to be true
-------------------------------

E
Night is upon us the stars are so bright
Gonna take my time
The sun and moon are working tonight (or overtime)
On the other side
A E
You said let's go upstairs and give it a try

A B E
A B E

PRE CHORUS - CHORUS

E
A song is playing in the universe
Playing in reverse
Something tells me my life is taking a turn
I'll show you what I've learned
A E
Now it's time for me to say goodnight

PRE CHORUS - CHORUS

G
Understand that I can sometimes
F
Break the golden rule
G
Then I find myself and realize
F
I've been such a fool
G
To think that you would come back
F
After you said we were thru
G
I gotta try just one more time
F
It's all I can do

------------------------------
CHORUS
Am C
Raindrops fall the wind may blow
Em
I don't know why
Am C
I'll always be here with you
Em
I don't know why

------------------------------

G
Taking my time drinking my wine
F
I'm losing my mind
G
But the voice inside my head
F
It's working overtime
G
One more chance is all I ask of you
F
One last time
G
I have no place left to go
F
Please give me another try

CHORUS

E A
Sometimes I don't know how or where or why
E
If you insist
E A
Desires that I try to satisfy
E
If you insist
E A
My lust for you I'll tell ya I can't hide
E
If you insist
E A
You take my money I don't care or ask why
E
If you insist

--------- CHORUS ------------
B
Your blue eyes...
A
caught me...
E
by surprise

-------------------------------

Take a look at me baby look deep inside
If you insist
Tell me have you ever been so goddam high
If you insist
You say I have to cook for you clean for you why
If you insist
You say wanna take the wildest ride of your life?
If you insist

You say it's time for me to look you in the eye
If you insist
And tell you that it's me and you for life
If you insist
Been there done that honey no reason why
If you insist
To take a good thing and then make it a lie
If you insist

--------- CHORUS ------------
Your blue eyes...
caught me...
by surprise

-------------------------------

Maybe it's time for me to look inside
If you insist
My life is one short roller coaster ride
If you insist
I wonder how or what or where or why?
If you insist
You stay inside me all the days of my life
If you insist

That's how I know that that everything is alright

--------- CHORUS ------------
Your blue eyes...
caught me...
by surprise

-------------------------------

B Flat F
Secrets and unspoken words

B Flat F
Only few will know...his voice they heard

E flat Gm
He went to war...he flew so high

E flat Gm F
He found his place...he found his pride
------------------------------

B Flat F
Our lives have changed in so many ways

B Flat F
When I look back on my younger days

E flat Gm
Admiration Adulation our flag is high

E flat Gm F
Because of you... we'll never die
------------------------------
CHORUS (twice)
------------------------------
G F
Semper Fi ... you fighted for change

C G Am(first time) F(2nd time)
A Legacy Remains ... (gunny) you're my hero

B Flat F
My country my tis of thee

B Flat F
This country bows unto thee

E flat Gm
Pride, honor and dignity

E flat Gm F
A marine, a man, Uncle Tom to me
------------------------------
E flat Gm
It's sad to think that some may never see

E flat Gm F
A marine, a man, Uncle Tom to me
------------------------------
E flat Gm
You were, you are, you'll always be

E flat Gm F
A marine, a man, Uncle Tom to me

Looking out my window
As far as the eye can see
I see meadow to cross, mountains to climb
To claim my fortune from sea to sea

My power and money
Is all I crave and need
Irrisistable deals
That will bring you to your knees

----- CHORUS -----
What will it take
To change the world
What will it take
Till we understand we're all the same
What will it take
To say enough
What will it take
Till we understand it's all just a crazy game
----------------

It's hard for me to think
Taking over the world is still a goal
To those of you that want to
You should crawl back into your hole

Feed your children
Take care of their needs
And in the end
All our eyes will finally see

----- CHORUS -----

My god told me to
Kill my brother in his name
He must be right
Cause we don't look the same

And then I woke up
And realized it's all a lie
Created by men
With the look of fear in their eyes

----- CHORUS -----
