Intro:Am E G D F C Dm E [x 2]

Am EOn a dark desert highway, G DCool wind in my hair, F CWarm smell of colitas, Dm ERising up through the air.

Up a head in the distance,I saw shimmering light,My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim,I had to stop for the night.

There she stood in the door way,I heard the mission bell,And I was thinking to myself,This could be heaven or this could be hell.

Then she lit up a candle,And she showed me the way,There were voices down the corridor,I thought I heard them say.

Chorus: F CWelcome to the Hotel California E7Such a lovely place Am

Such a lovely face F CPlenty of the room at the Hotel California DmAny time of year E7You can find it here

Am E G D F C Dm E [x 2]

Her mind is Tiffany twisted,She got the Mercedes Benz,She got a lot of pretty pretty boys,That she calls friends.

How they dance in the courtyard,Sweet summer sweat,Some dance to remember,Some dance to forget.

So I called up the Captain,Please bring me my wine, he said,We haven´t had that spirit hereSince nineteen sixty nine.

And still those voices are callingFrom faraway,Wake up in the middleOf the night, just to hear them say.

Chorus:

Am E G D F C Dm E [x 2]

Now somewhere in the black mountain hills of DakotaThere lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon.And one day his woman ran off with another guy,Hit young Rocky in the Rocky didn't like thatHe said I'm gonna get that boy.So one day he walked into townBooked himself a room in the local saloon.

Rocky Raccoon checked into his room,Only to find Gideon's bible.Rocky had come, equipped with a gun,To shoot off the legs of his rival.His rival it seems, had broken his dreams,By stealing the girl of his fancy.Her name was Magil and she called herself LilBut everyone knew her as Nancy.Now she and her man, who called himself Dan,Were in the next room at the hoe down.Rocky burst in and grinning a grinHe said Danny boy this is a showdown.But Daniel was hot - he drew first and shot,And Rocky collapsed in the corner.

Da da daddley da da ... (etc). Now the doctor came in, stinking of gin,And proceeded to lie on the table.He said Rocky you met your match,Rocky said, Doc it's only a scratch,I'll be better, I'll be better doc as soon as I am able.

Now Rocky Raccoon he fell back in his room, Only to find Gideon's bible.Gideon checked out, and he left it no doubt,To help with good Rocky's revival.

Da da daddley da da ... (etc).

Spancil Hill- Christy Moore -

Am G AmLast night as I lay dreaming, of pleasant days gone by, C GMe mind being bent on rambling, to Ireland I did fly, Am C G

Page 14: Songbook #1

Songbook #2 · 14

I stepped on board a vision, and followed with a will, Am G AmTill the first I came to anchor at the cross at Spancil Hill,

It being the 23rd of June, the day before the fairWhere Ireland's sons and daughters, in crowds assembled thereThe young, the old, the brave and the bold, Their journey to fulfilThere were jovial conversations, at the cross near Spancil Hill

Delighted by the novelty, enchanted with the sceneWhere in my early boyhood, where often I had beenI thought I heard a murmur, and think I hear it stillIt's the little stream of water, that flows down Spancil Hill

I went to see my neighbours, to hear what they might sayThe old ones were all dead and gone, the others turning greyI met with tailor Quigley, he's as bold as ever stillSure he used to make my britches, when I lived in Spancil Hill

I paid a flying visit, to my first and only loveShe's white as any lily, and gentle as a doveShe threw her arms around me, saying Johnny I love you stillShe's Meg the farmers daughter, and the pride of Spancil Hill

Am G AmI dreamt I stooped and kissed her, as in the day of 'ore C GShe said Johnny you're only joking, as many the times beforeAm C GThe cock crew in the mornin', he crew both loud and shrill Am G AmAnd I woke in California, many miles from Spancil Hill

Blind Willie McTell- BoB DylaN –

Dm A Dm

Page 21: Songbook #1

Seen the arrow on the doorpost Dm A DmSaying this land is condemned A C G Bb C DmAll the way from New Orleans to Jerusalem Dm A DmI travelled to East Texas Dm A DmWhere many martyrs fell A C G Bb C DmAnd I know no one can sing the blues like Blind Willie McTell

Well I heard that hooter singingAs they were taking down the tentsThe stars above the barren trees were his only audienceThem charcoal gypsy maidensCan strut their feathers wellBut nobody can sing the blues like Blind Willie McTell.

See them big plantations burningHear the cracking of the whipsSmell that sweet magnolia blooming See the ghosts of slavery shipsI can hear them tribes a moaningHear that undertaker's bellNobody can sing the blues like Blind Willie McTell.

There's a woman by the riverWith some fine young handsome manHe's dressed up like a squire bootleg whiskey in his handThere's a chain gang on a highwayI can hear them rebels yellBut I know no one can sing the blues like Blind Willie McTell.

Well God is in his HeavenAnd we all want what’s hisBut power and greed and corruptible seedSeem to be all that there isI'm gazing out the windowOf the St. James HotelAnd I know no one can sing the blues like Blind Willie McTell.

Play the G// open

Chorus:A G There’s no home for you girl go a-way,C A-G//There's no home for you here.

Verse:A G I'd like to think that all this constant interaction C A-G//Is just the kind to make you drive yourself away.A G Each simple gesture done by me is counteracted C A-G//Leaves me standing here with nothing else to say.

Completely baffled by a backward indicationThat an inspired word will come across your tongue.Hands moving upward to propel the situationHave simply halted,And now the conversation's done.

Chorus:

I'm only waiting for the proper time to tell youThat it's impossible to get along with you.It's hard to look you in the face when we are talkingSo it helps to have a mirror in the room.

I've not been really looking forward to the performance,But there's my cue and there's a question on your face.Fortunately I have come across an answer,Which is go awayAnd do not leave a trace.

Chorus:AWaking up for breakfastBurning matchesTalking quicklyBreaking baublesThrowing garbageDrinking sodaLooking happyGTaking pictures CSo completely stupid AJust go away

Chelsea Hotel- Leonard Cohen -

Capo 5th Fret:

C F CI remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel, G AmYou were talking so brave and so sweet,C F CGiving me head on the unmade bed, F GWhile the limousines wait in the street.Am FThose were the reasons and that was New York, C E AmWe were running for the money and the flesh. F CAnd that was called love for the workers in song, F GProbably still is for those of them left.

F CAh, but you got away, didn't you babe,

E AmYou just turned your back on the crowd,F CYou got away, I never once heard you say: F CI need you, I don't need you, F CI need you, I don't need you" F Am GAnd all of that jiving around.

I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel:You were famous, your heart was a legend.You told me again you preferred handsome menBut for me you would make an exception.And clenching your fist for the ones like usWho are oppressed by the figures of beautyYou fixed yourself, you said, "Well never mind,We are ugly but we have the music."

Chorus:

C G F CI don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best, G AmI can't keep track of each fallen robin. C F CI remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel, F GThat's all, I don't even think of you that often.

Verse 1:DI'll be the one to show you the wayAYou'll be the one to always complainG3 in the morning come a bang, bang, bangGAll out of fags and I just can't waitD Cancel the thing that I said I'd doA I don't feel comfortable talking to youG Unless you got the zipper fixed on my shoeGThen I'll be in the lobby drinking for two

Verse 2:DLook at the shaky's what's with the blushAFresh off the plane in my fuzzy rushGEveryone's gathered to idolize meGI hate the way you talk your Japanese screamDIt's been too long since I left the shedAYou kick the bucket an' I'll swing my legs GAlways remember the pact that we madeGToo young to die, but old is a grave.
