1. I Wanna Hold You

Tell me that you want me baby

Tell me that it's true

Say the magic words

And I'll destroy the world for you

An army for the broken hearted

Marching through the streets

And everything is burning

To the ground under your feet

I wanna hold you

My skies are turning black

Feels like a heart attack

And I'd do anything you'd ask

I wanna hold you bad

I'd melt the polar icecaps baby

And watch them flood the earth

I'd do anything to show you

What your love is worth

So won't you show me your devotion

To heal my aching heart

it's like a neutron bomb explosion

Tearing me apart

I wanna hold you

My skies are turning black

Feels like a heart attack

And I'd do anything you'd ask

I wanna hold you bad

Attention please,

We interrupt this program

With some disturbing news

A worldwide evacuation

We're GOING TO LOSE

And they've pulverised the nation

I guess it shows us just what love can do

I wanna hold you

My skies are turning black

Feels like a heart attack

And I'd do anything you'd ask

I wanna hold you bad

I'd do anything you ask

I wanna hold you bad

2. I've Got You

The world would be a lonely place

Without the one that puts a smile on your face

So hold me 'til the sun burns out

I won't be lonely when I'm down

'Cause I've got you to make me feel stronger

When the days are rough and an hour feels much longer

I never doubted you at all

If stars collide, will you stand by and watch them fall?

So hold me 'til the sky is clear

And whisper words of love right into my ear

'Cause I've got you to make me feel stronger

When the days are rough and an hour feels much longer

Yeah when I got you

Oh to make me feel better

When the nights are long they'll be easier together

Looking in your eyes

Hoping they won't cry

And even if you do

I'll be in bed so close to you

Hold you through the night

And you'll be unaware

But if you need me I'll be there

Yeah I got you

Oh to make me feel better

When the nights are rough and an hour feels much longer

Yeah when I got you to make me feel better

When the nights are long they'll be easier together

Oh when I got you

3. Obviously

Recently I've been

Hopelessly reaching

Out for this girl

Who's out of this world

Believe me

She's got a boyfriend

He drives her round the bend

Cos he's 23

He's in the marines

He'd kill me

But so many nights now

I find myself thinking about her now

Coz obviously

She's out of my league

But how can I win

She keeps draggin' me in and

I know I never will be good enough for her

No, no

Never will be good enough for her

Gotta escape now

Get on a plane now (oh yeah)

Off to L.A and that's where I'll stay, for 2 years

I'll put it behind me(I'll put it behind me)

Go to a place where she can't find me, oh

Coz obviously

She's out of my league

I'm wastin' my time

Coz she'll never be mine

I know i never will be good enough for her

No, no

Never will be good enough for her

She's outta my hands

And I never know where I stand

Cos I'm not good enough for her

He's good enough for her (for her, for her)

Coz obviously

She's out of my league

But how can I win

She keeps draggin' me in

I know i never will be good enough for her

No, no

Never will be good enough for her

4. Ultraviolet

Nothing goes to plan

it's all a game of chance they say

in Wonderland

There's magic in the air

a tragic love affair that

I don't understand

These summer girls are really

something else

Our lives are short, the nights are long

And missers Halloween

is drinking at the bar again in

New Orleans

She throws another dart

and narrowly avoids my lonely

Broken heart

Torn apart

These summer girls are really

something else

Our lives are short, the nights are long

The nights go on and on

The nights go on and on

The nights go on and on

So pinch me i must be dreaming

My life has lost all its meaning.

But I like the way I'm feeling now

Kissing your lips at midnight

Under the stars and moonlight

But I never thought we'd be this wrong

The nights go on and on

The nights go on and on

erse 3:

She's looking good tonight

I love the way she glows in ultraviolet light

Intoxicate my mind

I know that love is blind and I'm not seeing right

Not alright

These summer girls are really

Something else.

Our lives are short, the nights are long

These summer girls are really

something else

Our lives are short, the nights are long

The nights go on and on

The nights go on and on

The nights go on and on

5. Five colours in her hair

Do Do Do Do Do Doo

Do Do Do Do Do Doo

Do Do Do Do Do Doo

She's got a lipring and five colours in her hair

Not into fashion, but i love the clothes she wears

Her tattoo's always hidden by her underwea

She don't care

Everybody wants to know her name

I threw a house party and she came

Everyone asked me

Who the hell is she

That weirdo with 5 colours in her hair

She's just a loner with a sexy attitude

I'd like to phone her cos she puts me in the mood

The rumours spreading now that she cooks in the nude

But she don't care, but she don't care

Everybody wants to know her name

How does she cope with her new found fame

Everyone asks me

Who the hell is she

That weirdo with 5 colours in her hair

She was all I thought about

The girl I couldn't live without

But then she went insane

She couldn't take the fame

She said I was to blame

She'd had enough

And shaved five colours off

And now she's just a weirdo with no name

Everybody wants to know her name

How does she cope with her new found fame

Everyone asks me

Who the hell is she

That weirdo with 5 colours in her hair

1 2 3 4!

Do Do Do Do Do Doo

Do Do Do Do Do Doo

Do Do Do Do Do Doo

Doo!

6. Too close for comfort

Never meant the things i said to make you cry

Can I say I'm sorry?

It's hard to forget

Yes I regret

All these mistakes

I don't know why you're leaving me

But I know you must have your reasons

There's tears in your eyes

I watch as you cry

But it's getting late

Was I invading in on your secrets

Was I too close for comfort

You're pushing me out when i wanted in

What was I just about to discover

When I got too close for comfort in driving you home

Guess ill never know

The way we scratched our names into the sand

And told me you loved me

And now that I find

That you've changed your mind

I'm lost for words

And everything I feel for you

I wrote down on one piece of paper

The one in your hand

You won't understand

How much it hurts to let you go

Was I invading in on your secrets

Was I too close for comfort

Your pushing me out when i wanted in

What was i just about to discover

When I got too close for comfort in driving you home

Cos I'll never know

All this time you've been telling me lies

Hidden in bags that are under your eyes

And when I asked you I knew I was right

but if you turn your back on me now

When I need you most

But you just let me down, down, down

Won't you think about what your about to do to me

And back down

(played softly)

Was I invading in on your secrets

Was I too close for comfort

D G(builds back up)

Your pushing me out when i wanted in

C D Em (C and D = single strum)

What was I just about to discover

I got too close for comfort

Pushing me out when I wanted in

Yeah, yeah, yeah

What was I just about to discover

When I got too close for comfort

Driving you home

Guess I'll never know

7. All about you

it's all about you, it's all about you baby.

it's all about you, it's all about you.

yesterday you asked me something i thought you knew

so i told you with a smile it's all about you

then you whispered in my ear and told me to

said you made my life worth while it's all about you

and i would answer all your wishes if you ask me to

but if you deny me one of your kisses don't know what i do

so hold me close and say three words like you used to do

dancing on the kitchen tiles it's all about you yeah

and i would answer all your wishes if you ask me to

but if you deny me one of your kisses don't know what i do

so hold me close and say three words like you used to do

dancing on the kitchen tiles yeah you make my life worth while

so i told you with the smile it's all about you yeah

it's all about you, it's all about you baby

it's all about you, it's all about you baby

8. That girl

Went out with the guys

And before my eyes

There was this girl she looked so fine

And she blew my mind

And I wish that she was mine

And I said "Hey wait up cause I'm off to speak to her."

And my friends said (Never get her etc...)

But I didn't care

Cause I loved her long blond hair

Love was in the air

She looked at me

And the rest is history

Dude you're being silly cause you're never gonna get that girl

And you're never gonna get that girl.

We spoke for hours

(She) took off my trousers

Spent the day laughing in the sun.

And we had fun

And my friends they all looked stunned

Dude she's amazing and I can't believe you got that girl

And my friends said (She's amazing etc...)

It gave me more street cred

I dug the book she read

How can I forget

She rocks my world

More than any other girl

Dude she's amazing and I can't believe you got that girl

And I can't believe you got that girl

She looked incredible

Just turned seventeen

I guess my friends were right

She's out of my league

So what am I to do

She's too good to be true-ue

But three days later

Went round to see her

But she was with another guy

And I said fine

But I never asked her why, and since then

Loneliness has been a friend of mine

And my friends said (Such a pity etc...)

I let her slip away

They tell me every day

That it will be OK

She rocks my world

More than any other girl

Dude it's such a pity and I'm sorry that you lost that girl

And I'm sorry that you lost that girl

9. Unsaid things

This girl that moved just down the road from me

She had the nicest legs i've ever seen

back then

she wrote me letters just to say she loved me

now her face is just a memory

now that

seven years have gone

and i've grown up but she's moved on

somehow i'm still holding on to her

I still got so many unsaid things that

i wanna say

and i just can't wait another day

i wish she knew

i still wait up wondering if she still

remembers me

but there's no way for me to know

Now she's got pregnant with a baby

it feels like shes slipping away from me

now that

she's getting married i'm in misery

coz her fiance's so much bigger than me

coz he works out alot

and there's not much that he ain't got

and right now i'm losing the plot

along with her

(Just repeat the same as the chorus, it starts with: I still got so many unsaid things, and so on)

And i want her to know

before she's married and has a baby

that i need her

10. I'll be ok

When everything is going wrong

And things are just a little strange

Its been so long now you've forgotten how to smile

And overhead the skies are clear but it still seems to rain on you

And your only friends all have better things to do

When you're down and lost

And you need a helping hand

When you're down and lost along the way

Oh just tell yourself

Bflat F C

Ahhhh ahhh ahhh ahh, I'll be ok

When things are only getting worse

And you need someone to take the blame

When your lover's gone there's no one to share the pain

You're sleeping with the tv on and you're lying in an empty bed

All the alcohol in the world would never help me through it again

When you're down and lost

And you need a helping hand

When you're down and lost along the way

Just try a little harder

Try your best to make it through the day

Oh just tell yourself

Bflat F C

Ahhhh ahhh ahhh ahh, I'll be ok

second guitar plays:

long lasting notes played in sequence with chords

Bflat B#

You're not alone

(You're not alone)

Bflat B#

You're not alone

(You're not alone)

Bflat B# C

You're not alone

Just tell yourself I'll, I'll be ok

Oh just tell yourself, I'll, I'll be ok

Bflat F C G

Won't you tell yourself, ahhhhhh ahhh ahhh ahhh

When you're down and lost

And you need a helping hand

When you're down and lost along the way

Try a little harder

Try your best to make it through the day

And oh just tell yourself

Bflat F C

Ahhhh ahhh ahhh ahh, I'll be ok

Bflat F C

Ahhhh ahhh ahhh ahh, I'll be ok

Bflat F C

Ahhhh ahhh ahhh ahh, I'll be ok

11. Just my Luck

You and I have got a lot in common

We share all the same problems

Luck and love and life aren't on our side

I'm in the wrong place at the wrong time

Always the last one in a long line

Waiting for something to turn out right, right

I'm starting to fall in love

It's getting too much

Not often that I slip up

It's just my luck

Rain clouds are gathering in numbers

Just when I put away my jumper

Luck and love still aren't on my side

I still refuse to be a skeptic

Cause I know I could still correct this

Maybe this will be my lucky night, night

I'm starting to fall in love

It's getting too much

It's not often that I slip up

It's just my luck

Just my luck, just my luck, just my luck, now (x4)

Something to turn out right

Waiting for something

I'm waiting for something

To turn out right

I'm starting to fall in love

It's getting too much

Not often that I slip up

It's just my luck

12. Memory lane

Two years away, got back today

Tried calling up this girl I used to know.

But when I said hello, she didn't know

Who the hell I was supposed to be.

Memory Laaaaannnee, we're here again,

Back to the daaaaayyysss

And I'll remember you alwaaaaaayyyyss

So much has changed,

And now it feels like yesterday, I went away.

(same as verse 1)

The words around, that she's moved town

About a thousand miles away from here

I ran to get my bike, but it wasn't there.

My parents sold it at the summer fair.

Repeat CHORUS

So much has changed (So much has changed)

So much has changed (So much has changed)

So much has changed (So much has changed)

Acoustic CHORUS

So much has changed (So much has changed)

So much has changed (So much has changed)

So much has changed (So much has changed

Down Memory Lane

(Starts to skip here, like an old record player. It's actually supposed to sound like this!!)

G(Strum once, quickly)

-ry lane -

G(Strum once, quickly)

-ry lane-

G(strum once, quickly)

-ry lane

And then it ends
