Head under waterand they tell me to breathe easy for a whilethe breathing gets harder,even I know thatyou made room for me but its too soon to seeif Im happy in your handsIm unusually hard to hold on to

Blank stares at blank pages

no easy way to say thisyou mean well, but you make this hard on me

Im not gonna write you a love songcause you asked for itcause you need one, you seeIm not gonna write you a love songcause you tell me itsmake or breaking thisif youre on your wayIm not gonna write you to stayIf all you have is leaving Im gonna need a betterreason to write you a love song today

I learned the hard waythat they all say things you want to hearand my heavy heart sinks deep down under you andyour twisted words,your help just hurtsyou are not what I thought you werehello to high and dry

Convinced me to please you

made me think that I need this tooIm trying to let you hear me as I am

Im not gonna write you a love songcause you asked for itcause you need one,you seeIm not gonna write you a love songcause you tell me itsmake or breaking thisif youre on your wayIm not gonna write you to stayIf all you have is leaving Im gonna need a betterreason to write you a love song today

Promise me that youll leave the light onto help me see with daylight,my guide, gonecause I believe theres a way you can love mebecause I say

I wont write you a love songcause you asked for itcause you need one, you seeIm not gonna write you a love songcause you tell me its make or breaking thisis that why you wanted a love songcause you asked for itcause you need one, you seeIm not gonna write you a love songcause you tell me its make or breaking thisif youre on your wayIm not gonna write you to stayif your heart is nowhere in itI dont want it for a minuteBabe, Ill walk the seven seas when I believe thattheres a reason towrite you a love song today

Piano: Sara BareillesDrums: Brian MacLeodBass: Chris ChaneyGuitar: Bruce Watson,Lyle Workman,Joel ShearerMelatron: Eric Ivan RossePercussion: Rafael Padilla

Gonna sell my car and go to VegasCause somebody told methats where dreams would beGonna sell my car and go to VegasFinally see my name upon the Palace marquis

Gonna quit my job and move to New YorkCause somebody told me thats wheredreamers should goGonna quit my job and move to New YorkAnd tattoo my body with every Broadway show.

Listen up now honey,youre gonna be sorryCant get out from under a sky that is fallingand you sayNo fame no money Im nobodyThe way Im running has sure got me down

on my knees.But next stop,Vegas please.Gotta get to VegasCan you take me to Vegas?

Gonna sell my house and cross the borderCause somebody told me dreams live in MexicoGonna sell my house I got to lose ten poundsand cross the borderAnd make sweet love upon the white sandy shore.

Listen up now honey, youre gonna be sorryCant get out from under a sky that is fallingand you sayNo fame no money Im nobodyThe way Im running has sure got me downon my knees.But next stop,Vegas please.

Its always just around the corner or youreon your way to somewhereThat is bigger or betterIf you could only get there

Its never your fault you cant start yourown winning streakBut Id hate to lose you to the fortune you seek

Im gonna lose my mind and sail the ocean.Cause somebody told me there werecherryblue skiesIm gonna fix my mind with a final destinationAnd have a deep sleep upon a sweet dreamIll never realizeno

Listen up now honey,youre gonna be sorryCant get out from under a sky that is fallingand you sayNo fame no money Im nobodyThe way Im running has sure got me downon my knees.Next stop,Vegas please.Can you take me to Vegas?

ONE SWEET LOVE

Acoustic Guitar & Piano: Sara BareillesElectric Grand Piano:Eric Ivan RosseDrums: Matt ChamberlainBass: Chris Chaney

Electric & Acoustic Guitar:Bruce Watson

Just about the time the shadows callI undress my mind and dare you to followPaint a portrait of my mysteryOnly close my eyes and you are here with meA nameless face to think I seeTo sit and watch the waves with me till theyre goneA heart Id swear Id recognize is made out ofmy own devices.could I be wrong?

CHORUSThe time that Ive takenI pray is not wastedHave I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?

Sleepless nights you creep inside of mePaint your shadows on the breath that we shareYou take more than just my sanityYou take my reason not to care.No ordinary wings Ill needthe sky itself will carry me back to you

The things I dream that I can do Ill open up


4/6

the moon for youJust come down soon

CHORUSThe time that Ive takenI pray is not wastedHave I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?Ready and waiting for a heart worth the breakingBut Id settle for an honest mistake in the name ofone sweet love.

Savor the sorrow to soften the pain sip onthe southern rainAs I do, I dont look dont touch dont do anythingbut hope that there is a you.

The earth that is the space between,

Id banish it from under meto get to you.Your unexpected love provides my solitaryssuicideoh I wish I knew

CHORUSThe time that Ive takenI pray is not wastedHave I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?Ready and waiting for a heart worth the breakingBut Id settle for an honest mistake in the name ofone sweet love.

COME ROUND SOON

Piano: Sara BareillesDrums: Brian MacLeodBass: Chris ChaneyGuitar: Bruce Watson,Lyle Workman,Joel ShearerProgramming:Eric Ivan Rosse

I could use another cigaretteBut don't worry daddy,Im not addicted yetOne too many drinks tonight and I miss youLike you were mine

All your stormy words have barely brokenAnd you sound like thunder thoughyouve barely spokenOh, it looks like rain tonight and thank GodCause a clear sky just wouldn't feel right.

CHORUSHes taken and leavingBut I keep believingThat hes gonna come round soon(Hell come round soon I know)You may be my final matchCause I chase everything when you playthrow and I play catchIt never took much to keep me satisfiedBut all the bullshit you feed me you miss meyou need meThis hungry heart will not subside

CHORUSHes taken and leavingBut I keep believingThat hes gonna come round soonUntil I see him againIm staying believingThat it wont be deceivingWhen hes gonna come round

Well I may seem naive if I cry as you leaveLike Im just one more tortured heartThese cracks that I show as Im watchingyou go arent tearing me apartI may seem naive if I cry as you leaveLike Im just one more tortured heartThese cracks that I show as Im watchingyou go arent tearing me apart

The angels said Id smile todayWell who needs angels anyway?

CHORUS

MORNINGSIDE

Piano & Fender Rhodes:Sara BareillesDrums: Brian MacLeodBass: Chris ChaneyGuitar: Bruce Watson,Lyle Workman,Joel ShearerPercussion: Rafael Padilla

Im not scared of you nowOr so I sayTheres no reason to runAlthough I mayIm not as sure as I seemThis much I knowWhat does it mean when you leave and I follow

CHORUSI could try to forget what you do when I let you getThrough to me but then you do it over againI could rage like a fire and youd bring rain I desireTill you get to me on my morningside

Keep my distance I triedNo useBut no matter the milesIm back to you

CHORUSI could try to forget what you do when I let you getThrough to me but then you do it over againI could rage like a fire and youd bring rain I desireTill you get to me on my morningsideLet me down you say never,baby blues, dont you everIm used to being one with the misfortune to findAfternoons run for cover and full moons just wonderWhat it looks like here on my morningside

Look back,dont you dare let me start to do thatI dont care if the things that I haveOnly make me afraid to lose INeed to let goNeed to want to keep letting you knowThat we both have a reason to followLong as we let this lead Im barely breathing

CHORUSI try to forget what you do to me but thenyou do it over againI could rage like a fire and youd bring rainTill you get to me on my morningsideLet me down you say never, baby,dont you everIm used to being one with the misfortune to findAfternoons run for cover and full moons just wonderWhat it looks like here on my morningside

BETWEEN THE LINES

Piano: Sara Bareilles

Drums: Matt ChamberlainBass: Chris ChaneyGuitar: Stuart Mathis

Time to tell me the truthTo burden your mouth for what you sayNo pieces of paper in the wayCause I cant continue pretending to chooseThe opposite sides on which we fallThe loving you laters if at allNo right minds could wrong be this many times.

My memory is cruelIm queen of attention to detailsDefending intentions if he failsUntil now,he told me her nameIt sounded familiar in a wayI could have sworn Id heard him say itten thousand timesIf only I had been listening.

CHORUSLeave unsaid unspokenEyes wide shut unopenedYou and meAlways between the linesBetween the lines

I thought I was ready to bleedThat wed move from the shadows on the wallAnd stand in the center of it all.Too late two choices to stay or to leaveMine was so easy to uncoverHed already left with the other.So Ive learned to listen through silence.

CHORUSLeave unsaid unspokenEyes wide shut unopenedYou and meAlways between the linesBetween the lines

I tell myself all the words he surely meant to sayIll talk until the conversation doesnt stay onWait for me Im almost readyWhen he meant let go.

CHORUSLeave unsaid unspokenEyes wide shut unopenedYou and meAlways beYou and meAlways between the lines.

LOVE ON THE ROCKS

Piano: Jamie MuhoberacDrums: Matt ChamberlainBass: Chris ChaneyGuitar: Bruce Watson, Joel ShearerPercussion: Rafael Padilla

We met on a rainy evening in the summertimeDont think I need to tell you moreI needed a raise I worked so hard for this love ofmine, love of mine.Still I got nothing to show for it.Heres a simplification of everything we're going thoughYou plus me is bad newsBut you're a lovely creation, I like to think that I am tooBut my friends said I look better without you.Tongue tied and twisted, go on baby,and go to my head.

CHORUSBabe, baby believe meIf I stay it aint gonna be easyOkay well do it your way,but this is the last timeYou'll hear the beautiful sound of love coming downLove on the rocks.

You love the chase but hate me for the runaroundAnd we both just tired of the whole thing.You tell me what you want you need you knowyou have to haveAnd I just pretend Im listeningToo tired this time to deal with old suits you wear;your ties thatwont bind.

CHORUSBabe, baby believe meIf I stay it aint gonna be easyOkay well do it your way, but this is the last timeYoull hear the beautiful sound of love coming down

Hot as hellCold as iceSip it slow cause its so niceDulls my senses drives mypain but I do it againBurns a bit to the touch, dangerous if its too muchIf this bottle could talk.Love on the Rocks


5/6

CHORUSBabe, baby believe meIf I stay it aint gonna be easyOkay well do it your way, but this is the last timeYoull hear the beautiful sound of love coming down

CITYStrings Arranged by Eric Ivan RossePiano: Sara BareillesDrums: Matt ChamberlainBass: Chris ChaneyGuitar: Bruce WatsonGuitar Solo:Joel ShearerCello: Cameron StonePercussion: Rafael PadillaPercussion & Programming:Eric Ivan RosseTheres a harvest each Saturday nightAt the bars filled with perfume and hitching a rideA place you can stand for one night and get goneIts clear this conversation aint doing a thingCause these boys only listen to me when I singAnd I dont feel like singing tonightAll the same songs

CHORUSIn these deep city lightsGirl could get lost tonightIm finding every reason to be goneNothing here to hold on toCould I hold you?

The situations always the sameYou got your wolves in their clothes whisperingHollywoods nameStealing gold from the silver they seeBut itsnot me

CHORUSIn these deep city lightsGirl could get lost tonightIm finding every reason to be goneNothing here to hold on toCould I hold you?

Calling out somebody save me I feel like Im fading awayAm I gone?Calling out somebody save me I feel like Im fading

CHORUSIn these deep city lightsGirl could get lost tonightIm finding every reason to be goneTheres nothing here to hold on toCould I hold on to you?

FAIRYTALE

Piano: Sara BareillesDrums: Brian MacLeodBass: Chris ChaneyGuitar: Stuart Mathis

Cinderellas on her bedroom floorshes got aCrush on the guy at the liquor storeCause Mr.Charming dont come home anymoreAnd she forgets why she came here.Sleeping Beautys in a foul moodfor shame she says,None for you dear prince,Im tired today.Id rather sleep my whole life away than have youkeep me from dreaming

CHORUSCause I dont care for your fairytalesYoure so worried bout the maiden thoughyou knowShes only waiting on the next best thing

Snow White is doing dishes again causewhat else can you doWith seven itty-bitty men?Sends them to bed and she calls up a friend, sayswill you meet me at midnight?The tall blonde lets out a cryof despair says,Would have cut it myself if I knew mencould climb hairIll have to find another tower somewhereand keep away from the windows.

CHORUSCause I dont care for your fairytalesYoure so worried bout the maiden thoughyou knowShes only waiting on the next best thing

Once upon a time in a faraway kingdomMan made up a story said that I should believe himGo and tell your white knight that hes handsome inhindsightBut I dont want the next best thingSo I sing and hold my head down and I break thesewalls round meCant take no more of your fairytale love

CHORUSCause I dont care for your fairytalesYoure so worried bout the maiden thoughyou knowShes only waiting on the next best thingI dont careI dont careYou worry bout the maiden though you know

Shes only waiting spent her whole life being gradedontheSanctity of patience and a dumb appreciationBut the story needs some mending and a betterhappy endingCause I dont want the next best thingNo, no I dont want the next best thing.

GRAVITY

Strings Arranged by Eric Ivan RossePiano: Sara BareillesCello: Cameron Stone

Something always brings me back to you. It nevertakes too long.No matter what I say or do Ill still feel you here tilthe moment Im gone.

You hold me without touch.You keep me without chains.I never wanted anything so much than to drown inyour love and not feel your rain.

CHORUSSet me free,leave me be.I dont want to fall another moment into your gravity.Here I am and I stand so tall,just the wayIm supposed to be.But you're on to me and all over me.

You loved me cause Im fragile.When I thought that I was strong.But you touch me for a little while and all my fragilestrength is gone.

CHORUSSet me free,leave me be.I dont want to fall another moment into your gravity.Here I am and I stand so tall,just the wayIm supposed to be.But youre on to me and all over me.

I live here on my knees as I try to make you see

that youreeverything I think I need here on the ground.But youre neither friend nor foe though I cantseem to let you go.The one thing that I still know is thatyoure keeping me down.

Youre on to me, youre on to me and all over

Something always brings me back to you.It never takes too long.
