[D]I want to run, I want to hide

I want to tear down the walls that hold me in[G]side

I want to reach [Bm]out

And touch the [A]flame

Where the [Csus9]streets have no name

I want to feel, sunlight on my face

See that dust cloud disappear without a trace

I want to take shelter from the poison rain

Where the streets have no name

Wh[D]ere the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

We're still building then b[G]urning down love

Burning down love

And when I [Bm]go there, I go there [A]with you...

It's all I can d[D]o

The city's a flood

And our love turns to rust

We're beaten and blown by the wind, trampled in dust

I'll show you a place high on the desert plain

Where the streets have no name

Still building then burning down love

Burning down love

And when I go there, I go there with you

It's all I can do

O[D]ur love turns to rust

And we're beaten and [G]blown by the wind

Blown by the wind, oh and I s[D]ee love

See our love turn to rust

And we're beaten and [G]blown by the wind

Blown by the wind, oh when I [Bm]go there

I go there w[A]ith you, it's all I can do

I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For

- ----- ------- ----- ---- --- ------- ---

I have c[C]limbed the highest mountains

I have run through the fields

Only to [F]be with you

Only to [C]be with you

I have r[C]un, I have crawled

I have scaled these city walls

Only to [F]be with you

Only to [C]be with you

:/ But I st[G]ill haven't fou[F]nd what I'm lo[C]oking for /:

I have kissed honey lips

Felt the healing in her fingertips

It burned like fire this burning desire

I have spoke with the tongue of angels

I have held the hand of a devil

It was warm in the night, I was cold as a stone

:/ But I still haven't found what I'm looking for /:

I believe in the Kingdom Come

Then all the colours will bleed into one

But yes I'm still running.

You broke the bonds, you loosened the chains

You carried the cross

And my shame, and my shame

You know I believed it

:/ But I still haven't found what I'm looking for /:

******************************************************************************

With or Without You

---- -- ------- ---

Same four chords repeat throughout song:

[D] [D/A] [Bm7] [G/D] A simplified version can be played. Here it goes. If you want

to play the original version, replace the four chords.

S[D]ee the [A]stone set in your [Bm]eyes,

See the t[G]horn twist in your s[D]ide

I [A]wait for y[Bm]ou[G]

Sleight of hand and twist of fate

On a bed of nails she makes me wait

And I wait....without you

With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore

You give it all but I want more

And I'm waiting for you

With or without you, with or without you

I can't live with or without you

And you give yourself away

And you give

And you give yourself away

My hands are tied

My body bruised, she's got me with

Nothing left to win

And nothing else to lose

With or without you

I can't live

With or without you

In the howling wind comes a stinging rain

See it driving nails into souls on the tree of pain

From the firefly, a red orange glow

See the face of fear running scared in the valley below

Bullet the blue sky

Bullet the blue

In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum

Jacob wrestled the angel and the angel was overcome

Plant a demon seed, you raise a flower of fire

See them burning crosses, see the flames, higher and higher

Bullet the blue sky

Bullet the blue

Suit and tie comes up to me

His face red

Like a rose on a thorn bush

Like all the colours of a royal flush

Through the alleys of a quiet city street

Up the staircase to the first floor

We turn the key and slowly unlock the door

A man breathes deep into saxophone

Through the walls we hear the city graon

Outside is America

Running to Stand Still

------- -- ----- -----

[D] And so she woke up, woke up from [G]where she was lying still, said I

[D]got to do something about where we're [G]going.

[D]Step on a steam train, [G] step out of the driving rain, maybe

[D] run from the darkness in the ni[G]ght, singing

[A]ah, ah la la [C]la de [G]day

[A] ah la la [C]la de [G]day, ah la l[D]a de day[G]

Sweet the sin, but bitter the taste in my mouth.

I see seven towers, but I only see one way out.

You got to cry without weeping, talk without speaking,

scream without raising your voice, you know I took the poison,

from the poison stream, then I floated out of here, singing

ah, ah la la la de day

ah la la la de day, ah la la de day

o[G]ooh, oo[D]oh, oo[G]oh

[D] She runs through the street with her eyes painted red

[G] under black belly of cloud in the rain

[D] in through the doorway she brings me

[G]white gold and pearls, stolen from the sea, she is r[D]aging

she is raging, and the [G]storm blows up in her eyes, she will

[A] suffer the ne[C]edle [G]chill

[A] she's running to [C]stand [G] [D]still[G] [D] [G] [D]

F[G]rom Father to Son[C] the blood runs thin

O[G]ur faces frozen ([C]still) against the wind

T[G]he seam is split,[C] the coal face cracked

T[G]he lines are long[C] and there's no going back

T[G]hrough hands of steel[C] and a heart of stone

O[G]ur labour day has[C] come and gone[D]

And you l[A]eave us holding on

In R[F]ed Hill Town, as the lights go down

I[G]'m hanging on[D]

You're all that's left to h[F]old on to[C]

I[G]'m holding on[D]

You're all that's left to h[F]old on to[C]

The glass is cut, the bottle runs dry

Our love runs cold in the caverns of the night

We're wounded by fear, injured in doubt

I can lose myself, you I can't live without

Because you keep me holding on

In Red Hill Town, as the lights go down

I'm hanging on ...

And we scorch the earth, set fire to the sky

Stoop so low to reach so hihgh

A link is lost, the chain undone

Now we wait all day for the night to come

And it comes

Like a hunter (child)

I'm hanging on

You're all that's left to hold on to

I'm hanging on

You're all that's left to hold on to

We see l[G]ove sl[D]owly stripped away

Our l[F]ove, has se[C]en a better day

I'm hanging on

You're all that's left to hold on to

I'm holding on

You're all that's left to hold on to

See the lights go down on Red Hill Town

See lights go down on Red Hill Town

In God's Country

-- ----- -------

[D]Desert Sky[Am]

Dream beneath a [D]desert sky[Am]

The rivers run but [D]soon run dry[Am]

We need new dreams[D] tonigh[Am]t

Desert rose

Dreamed I saw a desert rose

Dress torn in ribbons and in bows

Like a siren she calls to me

[Em]Sleep comes l[G]ike a d[D]rug..[Em]. In God's[G] Coun[D]try

[Em]Sad eyes [G]crooked cros[D]ses..[Em]. In God's[G] Coun[D]try

Set me alight

We'll punch a hole right through the night

Everyday the dreamers die

To see what's on the other side

She is Liberty

And she comes to rescue me

Hope faith, her vanity

The greatest gift is gold

Sleep comes like a drug... In God's Country

Sad eyes crooked crosses... In God's Country

Naked flame

She stands with a naked flame

I stand with the sons of Cain

Burned by the fire of love

Burned by the [D]fire of love[Am]

[D]love[Am]

******************************************************************************

Trip Through Your Wires

---- ------- ---- -----

In the [G]distance[F9] [C9]

[G]She saw me co[F9]ming [C9]round

I was [G]calling out[F9] [C9]

Still shaking, still in pain

You put me back together again

I was cold and you clothed me honey

I was down and you lifted me honey

Angel, angel or devil

I was thirsty

And you wet my lips

[C]You, I'm waiting for [G]you

[Bb]You, you set my de[F/C]sire

I[C] trip through your [G]wires

I was broken, bent out of shape

I was naked in the clothes you made

My lips were dry, throat like rust

You gave me shelter

From the heat and the dust

There's no more water in the well

No more water in the well

Angel, angel or devil

I was thirsty

And you wet my lips

You, I'm waiting for you

You, you set my desire

I trip through your wires

Thunder, thunder on the mountain

There's a raincloud in the desert sky

In the distance, she saw me coming round

I was calling out, I was calling out

******************************************************************************

One Tree Hill

--- ---- ----

W[C]e turn away to face the [F]cold, enduring chill

As the d[Bb]ay begs the ni[F]ght for me[C]rcy

Your sun's so bright it leaves no shadows, only scars

Carved into stone on the face of earth

The moon is up and over One Tree Hill

We see the sun go down in your eyes

You ran like r[Bb]ive[F]r to the s[C]ea

Like a r[Bb]ive[F]r to the s[C]ea

And in our world a heart of darkness, a firezone

Where poets speak their hearts, then bleed for it

Jara sang, his song a weapon, in the hands of love

You know his blood still cries from the ground

It runs like a river to the sea, like a river to the sea

I don't believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts

While bullets rape the night of the merciful

I'll see you again when the stars fall from the sky

And the moon has turned red over One Tree Hill

We run like a river to the sea, like a river to the sea

******************************************************************************

Exit

----

You k[Em]now he got the cure...but then he went astray,

He u[C]sed to stay awake to drive the d[G]reams he had away

He wa[Em]nted to believe in the h[C]ands of lov[G]e...

His head it felt heavy as he cut across the land

A dog started crying like a broken hearted man

At the howling wind... the howling wind

He went deeper into black, deeper into white...

he could see the stars shine like nails in the night

He felt the healing, healing, healing, healing hands of love

Like the stars shiny, shiny... from above.

He put his hands in the pocket, his finger on the steel

The pistol weighed heavy, his heart he could feel

Was beating, beating, beating, beating oh my love

Oh my love, oh my love, oh my love.

(He saw the hands that build could also pull down....

The hands of love)

Mothers of the Disappeared (tab)

--------------------------

The main guitar is acoustic, and the 2nd guitar is a distorted electric.

How to decipher my notation: top line is guitar type (if it is necessary

to point out), 2nd line is lyrics, 3rd line is chord names, 4th is treble

rhythm. Then the TAB, and under that is bass rhythm. You'll figure it out.

Notation:

s - sixteenth note      e - eighth note         q - quarter note
h - half note           w - whole note  ^ - ties two note lengths together

. - play note for one and a half times the value before it

(just like a dot in standard notation)

NOTE LENGTHS IN CAPITAL LETTERS MEAN REST FOR THAT VALUE OF TIME!

/ - slide up     - slide down     h - hammer-on       p - pull-off

(Acoustic guitar - let ring)

Mothers of the Disappeared (crd)

------- -- --- -----------

Note: this is a very reduced version. If you want

to play anything closer to the original, look out

for the chords on the first line of the tab.

M[A]idnight, our sons and daughters

Were cut down and taken from us

Hear their he[E]artbeat...[D/F#]

We hear their he[A]artbeat

In the wind, we hear their laughter

In the rain we see their tears

Hear their heartbeat..., we hear their heartbeat

Night hangs like a prisoner

Stretched over black and blue

Hear their heartbeat..., we hear their heartbeat

In the trees our sons stand naked

Through the walls our daughters cry

See their tears in the rainfall

******************************************************************************

The Sweetest Thing

------------------

Note: Taken from Issue 13 of Propaganda

INTRO: C G/C F /G C G/C F /G

2. I wanted to run she made me crawl Ohhhhhh the sweetest thing

3. Blue eyed boy meets a brown eyed girl Ohhhhhh the sweetest thing

1. But she won't catch me or break my fall Ohhhhhh the sweetest thing

2. Eternal fire, she turned me to straw Ohhhhhh the sweetest thing

3. You can sew it up but you still see the tear Ohhhhhh the sweetest thing

1. Baby's got blue skies over head but in this I'm a rain cloud.

2. You know I got black eyes, but they burn so brightly for her

3. Baby's got blue skies over head and in this I'm a rain cloud.

1. You know she likes a dry kind of love. Ohhhhhh the sweetest thing

2. Mine is a blind kind of love. Ohhhhhh the sweetest thing

3. You know we got a stormy kind of love. Ohhhhhh the sweetest thing

[Dm] I'm [Dm/C]losing you[G], yeahhhh [Dm]heyyyy, I'm [Dm/C]losing you[G], yeahhh

Ain't love the sweetest th[Gsus4]ing. [/C] Ohh[F/C]hhh the sweetest th[Gsus4]ing. [/C] Oh[F/C]hhh, yes.

ENDING:

[D]I want to run, I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls that hold me in[G]side
I want to reach [Bm]out
And touch the [A]flame
Where the [Csus9]streets have no name
I want to feel, sunlight on my face
See that dust cloud disappear without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name
Wh[D]ere the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building then b[G]urning down love
Burning down love
And when I [Bm]go there, I go there [A]with you...
It's all I can d[D]o
The city's a flood
And our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind, trampled in dust
I'll show you a place high on the desert plain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still building then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there, I go there with you
It's all I can do
O[D]ur love turns to rust
And we're beaten and [G]blown by the wind
Blown by the wind, oh and I s[D]ee love
See our love turn to rust
And we're beaten and [G]blown by the wind
Blown by the wind, oh when I [Bm]go there
I go there w[A]ith you, it's all I can do

I have c[C]limbed the highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to [F]be with you
Only to [C]be with you
I have r[C]un, I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
Only to [F]be with you
Only to [C]be with you

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire this burning desire
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night, I was cold as a stone
:/ But I still haven't found what I'm looking for /:
I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colours will bleed into one
But yes I'm still running.
You broke the bonds, you loosened the chains
You carried the cross
And my shame, and my shame
You know     I believed it

to play the original version, replace the four chords.
S[D]ee the [A]stone set in your [Bm]eyes,
See the t[G]horn twist in your s[D]ide
I [A]wait for y[Bm]ou[G]
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait....without you
With or without you
With or without you
Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you
With or without you, with or without you
I can't live with or without you
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing left to win
And nothing else to lose
With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you

In the howling wind comes a stinging rain
See it driving nails into souls on the tree of pain
From the firefly, a red orange glow
See the face of fear running scared in the valley below
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue
In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum
Jacob wrestled the angel and the angel was overcome
Plant a demon seed, you raise a flower of fire
See them burning crosses, see the flames, higher and higher
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue
Suit and tie comes up to me
His face red
Like a rose on a thorn bush
Like all the colours of a royal flush
Through the alleys of a quiet city street
Up the staircase to the first floor
We turn the key and slowly unlock the door
A man breathes deep into saxophone
Through the walls we hear the city graon
Outside is America

[D]  And so she woke up, woke up from [G]where she was lying still, said I
[D]got to do something about where we're [G]going.
[D]Step on a steam train, [G]  step out of the driving rain, maybe
[D]  run from the darkness in the ni[G]ght, singing
[A]ah, ah la la [C]la de [G]day
[A]  ah la la [C]la de [G]day, ah la l[D]a de day[G]
Sweet the sin, but bitter the taste in my mouth.
I see seven towers, but I only see one way out.
You got to cry without weeping, talk without speaking,
scream without raising your voice, you know I took the poison,
from the poison stream, then I floated out of here, singing
ah, ah la la la de day
ah la la la de day, ah la la de day
o[G]ooh, oo[D]oh, oo[G]oh
[D]  She runs through the street with her eyes painted red
[G]  under black belly of cloud in the rain
[D]  in through the doorway she brings me
[G]white gold and pearls, stolen from the sea, she is r[D]aging
she is raging, and the [G]storm blows up in her eyes, she will
[A]    suffer the ne[C]edle [G]chill
[A]    she's running to [C]stand [G]     [D]still[G][D][G][D]

F[G]rom Father to Son[C] the blood runs thin
O[G]ur faces frozen ([C]still) against the wind
T[G]he seam is split,[C] the coal face cracked
T[G]he lines are long[C] and there's no going back
T[G]hrough hands of steel[C] and a heart of stone
O[G]ur labour day has[C] come and gone[D]
And you l[A]eave us holding on
In R[F]ed Hill Town, as the lights go down
I[G]'m hanging on[D]
You're all that's left to h[F]old on to[C]
I[G]'m holding on[D]
You're all that's left to h[F]old on to[C]
The glass is cut, the bottle runs dry
Our love runs cold in the caverns of the night
We're wounded by fear, injured in doubt
I can lose myself, you I can't live without
Because you keep me holding on
In Red Hill Town, as the lights go down
I'm hanging on ...
And we scorch the earth, set fire to the sky
Stoop so low to reach so hihgh
A link is lost, the chain undone
Now we wait all day for the night to come
And it comes
And it comes
Like a hunter (child)
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
We see l[G]ove sl[D]owly stripped away
Our l[F]ove, has se[C]en a better day
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm holding on
You're all that's left to hold on to
See the lights go down on Red Hill Town
See lights go down on Red Hill Town

W[C]e turn away to face the [F]cold, enduring chill
As the d[Bb]ay begs the ni[F]ght for me[C]rcy
Your sun's so bright it leaves no shadows, only scars
Carved into stone on the face of earth
The moon is up and over One Tree Hill
We see the sun go down in your eyes
You ran like r[Bb]ive[F]r to the s[C]ea
Like a r[Bb]ive[F]r to the s[C]ea
And in our world a heart of darkness, a firezone
Where poets speak their hearts, then bleed for it
Jara sang, his song a weapon, in the hands of love
You know his blood still cries from the ground
It runs like a river to the sea, like a river to the sea
I don't believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts
While bullets rape the night of the merciful
I'll see you again when the stars fall from the sky
And the moon has turned red over One Tree Hill
We run like a river to the sea, like a river to the sea

He u[C]sed to stay awake to drive the d[G]reams he had away
He wa[Em]nted to believe in the h[C]ands of lov[G]e...
His head it felt heavy as he cut across the land
A dog started crying like a broken hearted man
At the howling wind... the howling wind
He went deeper into black, deeper into white...
he could see the stars shine like nails in the night
He felt the healing, healing, healing, healing hands of love
Like the stars shiny, shiny... from above.
He put his hands in the pocket, his finger on the steel
The pistol weighed heavy, his heart he could feel
Was beating, beating, beating, beating oh my love
Oh my love, oh my love, oh my love.
(He saw the hands that build could also pull down....
The hands of love)

The main guitar is acoustic, and the 2nd guitar is a distorted electric.
How to decipher my notation: top line is guitar type (if it is necessary
to point out), 2nd line is lyrics, 3rd line is chord names, 4th is treble
rhythm. Then the TAB, and under that is bass rhythm. You'll figure it out.

The end. The book also gives this little fill, but for the life of me,
I can't figure out where it is supposed to be played. The book never says.
For completeness, however, I'm including it.

Note: this is a very reduced version. If you want
      to play anything closer to the original, look out
      for the chords on the first line of the tab.
M[A]idnight, our sons and daughters
Were cut down and taken from us
Hear their he[E]artbeat...[D/F#]
We hear their he[A]artbeat
In the wind, we hear their laughter
In the rain we see their tears
Hear their heartbeat..., we hear their heartbeat
Night hangs like a prisoner
Stretched over black and blue
Hear their heartbeat..., we hear their heartbeat
In the trees our sons stand naked
Through the walls our daughters cry
See their tears in the rainfall
