Love songs on the radio 

[Eb]she looks just like an angel 
when [Cm]she walks across the room 
she [Bb]shines tonight her golden light 
is [Eb]everything I need 

[Eb]lovers all around her 
she [Cm]wears them like her jewels 
my [Bb]friend said she´s all he needs 
to [Eb]feel alive 

[Eb]love songs on the radio 
your [Cm]sweetheart lies in bed 
she´s [Bb]dreaming of the things you said 
she´s [Eb]hoping that it´s meant...

[Eb]lonesome fools build [G#]lonesome walls 
to [Eb]hide behind, [G#]cry behind 
but I´m not [Eb]one [G#]

[Cm]but I can´t [G#]hide 
I´m [Cm]hurting babe 
but I can´t [G#]cry 
cos I´m not [Eb]one 

[Eb]drew you a picture to re[G#]member 
[Eb]threw it on the fire like a [G#]piece of pine 
i [Eb]pictured you mad and I [G#]pictured you cold 
[Eb]pictured you mean and i [G#]picture you bold 

[Cm]but I can´t [G#]hide 
I´m [Cm]hurting babe 
but I can´t [G#]cry 

[Cm]lay your [Bb]love on [G#]me

Tomorrow´s taken 

there [Cm]are times when i can´t [G#]think about the [Eb/Bb]future 
when [Cm]all my days seem [G#]dark and life seems [Eb/Bb]cruel 
i´ll [Cm]take another [G#]shot and think a[Eb/Bb]bout you 
cos a [Cm]bottle of wine is [G#]all i have to [Eb/Bb]hold 

[Gm]but i think it´s all i´ve [Cm]got 
[Gm]you´ve taken all i [Cm]got 
[Gm]and i´m sorry to [Cm]hold your hand 
[Gm]but i miss you and your [Cm]life 

there´s a [Cm]full moon in the [G#]sky 
it makes me [Eb/Bb]glad 
that there´s [Cm]something pure 
in [G#]something that i [Eb/Bb]had 
[Cm]something good is [F]all i need to [Eb/Bb]feel alive 
[Cm]a bottle of wine is [F]all i have to [Eb/Bb]hold 

[Gm]but i think it´s all i´ve [Cm]got 
[Gm]you´ve taken all i [Cm]got 
[Gm]and i´m sorry to [Cm]hold your hand 
[Gm]but i miss you and your [Cm]life

it´s [Fig1]christmas again so we lit all the [Fig2]candles 
and we [Fig1]tried to pretend that your room was a [Fig2]palace 
but we [Fig1]can´t seem to shake of the fear 
that nothing is [Fig2]different, that no-one has [Fig1]changed 
nothing has [Fig2]changed 

[C]i stand by my [G]lover as she stands by [D]me 
[C]chained to my [G]lover as she´s chained to [D]me 

we´ve [Fig1]been through the past and the pain 
the love that was [Fig2]lost 
and we [Fig1]know all the answers 
we´ve taken our chances and [Fig2]let them drift by 
its´ [Fig1]time to be free yeah it´s [Fig2]time to be free 
[Fig1]standing s close i can´t [Fig2]see you at all 

[C]i stand by my [G]lover as she stands by [D]me 
[C]chained to my [G]lover as she´s chained to [D]me 

but your [C]books don´t say much about 
[G]living your life like a [D]thief 
yeah we´re [C]handcuffed and chained 
we play [G]games and play them out [D]slowly 

[C]i stand by my [G]lover as she stands by [D]me 
[C]chained to my [G]lover as she´s chained to [D]me 

[C]i stand by my [G]lover as she stands by [D]me 
[C]chained to my [G]lover as she´s chained to [D]me

You´re beautiful
 Note: This songs uses a lot och picking and stuff,
 But I tried to make chords out of them to strum with. 
Set capo on 3rd fret and don´t play on the first string 
(high E.) 

[Em]velvet eyes are a [G]part of me 
[Am]sunset smiles and secret [G]tears 
[Em]time my life to a [G]fallen leaf 
[Am]watch the spring in all it´s [G]plumage 

[Am]beautiful like the [G]stars at night 
[Am]twist and turn before the [G]dawn 
[Am]beautiful like the [G]moon at night 
[Am]ducks and dives into the [G]sea 

[Em]curtains drawn you´ll miss the [G]light 
[Am]you´re dawning spell will be [G]broken 
[Em]vanished days are hard to [G]find 
[Am]half life dreams will not be [G]worth much 

[Am]beautiful like the [G]stars at night 
[Am]twist and turn before the [G]dawn 
[Am]beautiful like the [G]moon at night 
[Am]ducks and dives into the [G]sea
