VENUS & MARS

Intro1:

Intro2:

Sitting in the stands of the sports arena,

Waiting for the show to begin.

Red lights, green lights, strawberry wine,

A good friend of mine follows the stars,

Venus and Mars are alright tonight.

Rock Show

What's that man holding in his hand?

He looks a lot like a guy I knew way back when

Its silly willy with philly band

Could be ... Oo-ee ...

What's that man movin' cross the stage?

It looks a lot like the one used by jimmy page

Its like a relic from a different age

Could be ...Oo-ee ...

If there's rock show

At the concertgebow

They're got long hair

At the madison square

You've got rock and roll

At the hollywood bowl,

We'll be there ... Oo yeah ...

The lights go down - they're back in town o.k.

Behind the stacks you glimpse an axe

The tension mounts you score an ounce ole!

Temperatures rise as you see the white of their eyes

If there's rock show

At the concertgebow

You're got long hair

At the madison square

They've got rock and roll

At the hollywood bowl,

We'll be there ... Oo yeah ...

In my green metal suit I'm preparing to shoot up the city

And the ring at the end of my nose makes me look rather pretty

Its a pity there's nobody here to witness the end

Save for my dear old friend and confidante - madamoiselle kitty

What's that man movin' to and fro?

That decibel meter doesn't seem to be reading low.

But they was louder at the rainbow

Could be .... Oo-ee ...

If there's rock show

At the concertgebow

They're got long hair

At the madison square

You got rock and roll

At the hollywood bowl,

We'll be there ... Oo yeah ...

If there's rock show ...

If there's rock show ...

If there's rock show ...

Jet

Jet! I can almost remember their funny faces

That time you told me that

You were going to be marrying soon.

And Jet, I thought the only

Lonely place was on the moon.

Jet! Jet!

Jet! Was your father as bold as a sergeant major?

How come he told you that

You were hardly old enough yet?

And Jet, I thought the major

Was a lady suffragette.

Jet! Jet!

Ah, matter, want Jet to always love me?

Ah, matter, want Jet to always love me?

Ah, matter, much later. Oh Jet

Jet, I thought the major

Was a lady suffragette.

Jet!Jet!

Ah, matter, want Jet to always love me?

Ah, matter, want Jet to always love me?

Ah, matter, much later.

Jet! with the wind in your hair of a thousand laces.

Climb on the back and we'll

Go for a ride in the sky.

Jet, I thought the major

Was a lady suffragette.

Jet! Jet!

Yeah

I thought the major

Was a lady suffragette.

Jet!

And hung me on a line

Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

Maybe I'm a man and maybe I'm a lonely man

Who's in the middle of something

Lady Madonna (2:37)

Oh!

Lady Madonna, children at your feet,

Wonders how you manage to make ends meet.

Who finds the money when you pay the rent,

Did you know that money was heaven sent?

Friday night arrives without a suitcase,

Sunday morning creeping like a nun.

Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace,

(see how they'll run!)

Lady Madonna, baby at your breast,

Wonders how you manage to feed the rest, ooh.

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba,

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba,

Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba,

See how they'll run!

Lady Madonna, lying on the bed,

Listen to the music playing in your head, ooh-oh-oh..

Tuesday afternoon is never ending,

Wednesday morning papers didn't come,

Thursday night your stockings needed mending,

See how they'll run!

Lady Madonna, children at your feet,

Wonders how you manage to make ends meet.

Hey! Hey!

Hey! Hey!

The Long and Winding Road (4:28)

The long and winding road,

That leads to your door,

Will never disappear,

I've seen that road before, oh, oh.

Don't leave me waiting here,

Lead me to your door.

The wild and windy night,

That the rain washed away,

Has left a pool of tears,

Crying for the day.

Don't keep me waiting here,

Let me know the way.

Many times I've been alone,

And many times I've cried.

Any way you'll never know

The many ways I've tried

But still they lead me back

To the long, winding road,

You left me standing here,

A long, long time ago.

Don't keep me standing here.

Lead me to your door, uh-uh.

But still they lead me back

To the long, winding road,

You left me standing here,

A long, long time ago, oh yeah.

Don't keep me waiting here (don't keep me waiting)

Lead me to your door.

Live And Let Die

When you were young and your heart was an open book

You used to say life and let life

(You know you did, you know you did you know you did)

But in this ever changing world in which we live in

makes you give in and cry

Say live and let die

live and let die

live and let die

live and let die

What does it matter to ya

when you got a job to do

you gotta do it well

you gotta give the other fellow hell

When you were young and your heart was an open book

You used to say life and let life

(You know you did, you know you did you know you did)

But in this ever changing world in which we live in

makes you give in and cry

Say live and let die

live and let die

live and let die

live and let die

Richard Cory (3:05)

Intro:

G Ex4 & Riff

They say that Richard Cory owns one half of this whole town,

With political connections He spreads his wealth around. He Was

Born into society, a banker's only child,

He had everything a man could want: Money , Praise , and style.

The papers print his picture almost everyplace he goes:

Richard Cory at the opera, Richard Cory at The shows

And the rumor of his parties and the orgies on his yacht!

He Really must be happy with everything he's got.

But I work in his factory

And I curse the life I'm living

I curse my poverty

I wish that I could be,

I wish that I could be,

Oh, I wish that I could be,

John Denver.

He Really gave to The charity, had the common touch,

And they were Thankful for his patronage.. So They thank You very much,

So my mind was filled with wonder when the evening headlines read:

"Richard Cory went home last night and put a bullet through his head."

But I work in his factory

And I curse the life I'm living

I curse my poverty

I wish that I could be,

I wish that I could be,

Oh, I wish that I could be,

Richard Cory.

I've Just Seen a Face (2:11)

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

I've just seen a face

I can't forget the time or place where we first met.

She's just the girl for me

I want all the world to see we've met.

Da da da da da da.

Had it been another day

I might have looked the other way

And I'd have never been aware.

But as it is, I'll dream of her tonight,

Da da da da da da.

Falling, yes, I am falling,

And she keeps calling me back again.

Falling, yes, I am falling,

And she keeps calling me back again.

And she keeps calling me back again.

Falling, yes, I am falling,

And she keeps calling me back again.

I have never known the like of this,

I've been alone and I have missed things

And kept out of sight.

For other girls were never quite like this,

Da da da da da da.

Falling, yes, I am falling,

And she keeps calling me back again.

Yesterday (1:49)

Yesterday,

All my troubles seemed so far away,

Now it looks as though they're here to stay,

Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly,

I'm not half the man I used to be,

There's a shadow hanging over me,

Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

Why she

Had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say.

I said,

Something wrong, now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday,

Love was such an easy game to play,

Now I need a place to hide away,

Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.

You gave me the answer

To love eternally.

I love you and - you,

Heading back to old familiar places,

Places where the cobwebs blow away

I can forget the airs and graces

And we swung all over that Long tall bank in the main street

Well there she were and to my despair, She's a five-star criminal, Breaking the code

Magneto said "now the time come, to gather our forces and run!!! Oh no ... This can't be so ...

And then it occurred to me!, you couldn't be bad

Magneto was mad!, titanium too!

And the crimson dynamo

Just couldn't cut it no more

You were the law ...
