Song 2: Holy Mountain
Capo 3

[Verse 1]
A
Dance dance, if you do that dance
A
I'm gonna let you join my one man band
A
Be my doll, be my baby doll
A
Come get to know me like the back of your hand
A
I like the name hanging out in shade
A
I like the way you do the push and the shove
A
You can blow my mind if you're that way inclined
E                                        D
All that I know is that you fell from above

[Chorus 1]
A                         E
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
D                     A
Hold up pretty baby c'mon
A                             E
She danced, she danced, right into my hands
D                     A
Hold up pretty baby c'mon
A
Be my butterfly
E
You were almost shaking me
    D                             A
You rolled me at the top of them all
A
And if you feel the need
E
I'll send you God's speed
 D                                        A
To me you're hangin' at the break of the dawn

 D                            A
Get out of the doledrums baby, now
A
You lie, I'll set ya' on fire
D                             E
Get out of the doledrums baby, now

[Verse 2]
A
Do your thang on the beat of the bang
A
I'll put a melody inside of your head
A
No need to shout, what you bitchin' about?
A
I think those things are better left unsaid
A
She had a look you won't find in a book
A
And she smiles like 1969
A
You could blow my mind if you're that way inclined
E                                  D
And I know you're gonna make it mine

[Chorus 1]
A                         E
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
D                     A
Hold up pretty baby c'mon
A                             E
She danced, she danced, right into my hands
D                     A
Hold up pretty baby c'mon
A
Be my butterfly
E
You were almost shaking me
    D                             A
You rolled me at the top of them all
A
And if you feel the need
E
I'll send you God's speed
 D                                        A
To me you're hangin' at the break of the dawn

 D                            A
Get out of the doledrums baby, now
A
You lie, I'll set ya' on fire
D                             E
Get out of the doledrums baby, now

[Chorus 2]
A                   E
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
D                    A
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
A                    E
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
D                     A
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
A                     E
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
D                     A
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
A                     E
She fell, she fell, right under my spell

Song 3: Keep On Reaching
No Capo

[Intro]
Dm

[Verse 1]
Dm
Keep on running down that long black road
Dm
You'll find sunshine and showers made with love to behold
Dm
But can you keep a secret
Dm
Can you keep a secret

Dm
Keep on reaching up for that higher ground
Dm
But don't keep on preaching out for that book you found
Dm
Can you keep a secret
Dm
Can you keep a secret

[Chorus 1]
G
I can play it on an old guitar
G
You can sing it like a monkey man
G                                      Dm
Don't speak of soul 'cause you've got none
G
And all the kids in a funky bar
G
Dressing down like a bogeyman
G
If they don't mind and you don't mind
G                             Dm
I'm gonna write that in a song

[Bridge]
Dm
But can you keep a secret
Dm
But can you keep a secret
Dm
(Keep on reaching up for that higher ground)
Dm
But can you keep a secret
Dm
(Keep on reaching up for that higher ground)
Dm
Can you keep a secret
Dm
(Keep on reaching up for that higher ground)
Dm
Can you keep a secret
Dm
(Keep on reaching up for that higher ground)

[Chorus 2]
G
On the cover of a magazine
G
You wore a face that I've seldom seen
G                                        Dm
You spilled your guts but you've got none
G
You drive 'round in a beat up car
G
That you found by the road you run
G
If they don't mind and you don't mind
G                               Dm
I'm gonna write that in a song

[Outro]
Dm
But can you keep a secret
Dm
But can you keep a secret
Dm
But can you keep a secret
Dm
Can you keep a secret
Dm
(Keep on reaching up for that higher ground)
Dm
Can you keep a secret
Dm
(Keep on reaching up for that higher ground)
Dm
Can you keep a secret
Dm
(Keep on reaching up for that higher ground)
Dm
Can you keep a secret
Dm
(Keep on reaching up for that higher ground)
Dm
(Keep on reaching up for that higher ground)

It’s like dream, you had, one night
             Am
Put it over there
                Am
Wear it like a face
            Am
Never seen before

Keep it with the key, you thought, you found

Lyin’ on the floor

Wipe away the tear

It only comes with peace

Wipe it with a rose, of love, you saw
              Am
Fallin’ underneath
              Am
Do it like a dance
              Am
Do it for a while

But when it's gone, you know, it's gone
            Am
You're walking down a mile

Song 6: Be Careful What You Wish For
No Capo

[Intro]
Am C (Repeat x11)

[Verse 1]
Am        C
Tidy your books up
Am                  C
Put them under your bed
Am              C
And gather your thoughts up
Am                   C
But keep 'em in your head
Am                  C
Be careful what you wish for
Am                  C
Be careful what you dream
Am                     C
They let you sing your songs, son
Am                         C
But they’ll never hear you scream
D   C   Am  C  Am  C
Why
D   C   Am  C  Am  C
Why

[Verse 2]
Am          C
Button your coat up
Am                    C
Take shelter from the rain
Am                   C
They want you to be like them
Am                       C
But you can never be the same
Am                            C
’Cause you’re standing on the outside
Am                   C
They’ll never let you in
Am                       C
They’ll let you play the game, son
Am                        C
But they’ll never let you win
D   C   Am  C  Am  C
Why
D   C   Am  C  Am  C
Why

[Instrumental]
Am    C   (x4)

[Verse 3]
Am             C
Never let them bare witness
Am                   C
To the tears in your eyes
Am               C
And never take a handshake
Am                    C
From the prophets and their lies
Am                          C
’Cause they put you in the wrong line
Am                         C
You’ve been crying out for more
Am                    C
They’ve given you the key, son
Am                         C
But you’ll never find the door
D   C   Am  C  Am  C
Why
D   C   Am  C  Am  C
Why

[Solo]
Am  C (x4)

[Verse 4]
Am                  C
You’ve fallen like an angel
Am               C
Stranded on the earth
Am                  C
They let you see their riches
Am                             C
They never tell you what you’re worth
Am                          C
They’ve put you in the back seat
Am                            C
While they’re heading for the sun
Am                            C
And if you’re waiting for the rapture

[Outro]
Am                  C
The day will never come
Am                  C
The day will never come
Am                  C
The day will never come
Am                  C
The day will never come...

Song 8: If Love Is The Law
Capo 1

[Chords]
A4   002230
F#5  x44200
B5   x24400

[Intro]
A  A4  A
A4  A  A4  A  A4  F#5  B5

[Verse 1]
A      A4  A
Here am I,
         A4      A    A4
I'm high up on a ledge
    A       A4     F#5     B5
I'm stading on the edge of night
     A          A4   A
In a lonesome town

               A4       A    A4
Where love has been and gone
    A       A4      F#5      B5
I'm waiting for the storm to come back
    A         A4   A
And take me down

             A4     A    A4
The things I left unsaid
     A     A4   F#5
Were lying on a bed
      B5          A            A4  A
Right next to the face you wore

                 A4    A  A4
When you left me on my one
        A       A4    F#5
Now I'm up here on my own
    B5
And I must say

[Chorus]
D                     A
I didn't come here to make up your mind
D                              F#5
But I do believe that you were wasting my time
D                             A
There's no more tears left to cry myself blind
   F#5                  B5
If love is the law then this is a crime

[Verse 2]
A      A4  A
Memories
        A4     A    A4
Forever set in stone
     A      A4       F#5
When all is said and done
        B5            A             A4  A
They're just like the falling leaves

                A4      A    A4
That you gather in your head
         A      A4      F#5
When the sun's about to set
  B5           A         A4  A
I sail out on stormy seas

             A4       A    A4
But I cannot find the shore
      A        A4 F#5
Can't hear you anymore
    B5              A          A4  A
And there's nothing left for me

                 A4     A     A4
I'm lying broken on the glass
         A       A4      F#5
And this ship's about to crash
    B5
And I must say

[Chorus]
D                     A
I didn't come here to make up your mind
D                              F#5
But I do believe that you were wasting my time
D                             A
There's no more tears left to cry myself blind
   F#5                  B5
If love is the law then this is a crime

Capo 1

[Intro]
F#m
A E Bm F#m

[Verse 1]
F#m
She was there
F#m
Diamonds in her hair
Bm                        F#m
Singing out a dead man'€™s song
F#m
Here am I
         F#m
With the mighty and the high
Bm                     F#m
Feeling like I don'€™t belong
F#m
There's you  in your book of who's who
Bm                          F#m
Acting like you just don't care
F#m
We were lying low
F#m
Got nowhere to go
Bm
And any road will get us there

[Chorus]
A  E            Bm                        F#m
     We never should've left town in the first place
A  E              Bm                         F#m
     Now we gotta walk like they talk in the rat race
A  E               Bm                       F#m
     You keep your eyes on the prize if you want it all

[Post-Chorus]
F#m
You and I
F#m
The spider and the fly
Bm                          F#m
Will meet where the shadows fall

[Verse 2]
F#m
Make room for the man who built the moon
Bm                        F#m
He arrived on a knackered horse
F#m
Made no sound from the day he left town
Bm                     F#m
No one said a word of course
F#m
I believe he was wearing on his sleeve
Bm                         F#m
A heart made of black and stone
F#m
I said, my love
F#m
I think I’ve had enough
Bm                          F#m
I'm gonna find my way back home

[Chorus]
A  E            Bm                        F#m
     We never should've left town in the first place

     Now we gotta walk like they talk in the rat race

You and I

The spider and the fly
Bm                          F#m
Will meet where the shadows fall

A E Bm F#m

[Chorus]
A  E            Bm                        F#m
