2. _ For Your Love
By graham gouldman
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
I'd give you everything and more, and that's for sure.
For your love.
I'd bring you diamond rings and things right to your door.
For your love.
To thrill you with delight,
I'll give you diamonds bright.
There'll be things that will excite,
To make you dream of me at night.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love, for your love,
I would give the stars above.
For your love, for your love,
I would give you all i could.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
I'd give the moon if it were mine to give.
For your love.
I'd give the stars and the sun 'fore i live.
For your love.
To thrill you with delight,
I'll give you diamonds bright.
There'll be things that will excite,
To make you dream of me at night.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.
For your love.

3. _ Double Trouble
(by otis rush)
Lay awake at night,
Oh so low, just so troubled.
Can't get a job,
Laid off and i'm having double trouble.
Hey hey, to make you've got to try.
Baby, that's no lie.
Some of this generation is millionaires;
I can't even keep decent clothes to wear.
Laugh at me walking,
And i have no place to go.
Bad luck and trouble has taken me;
I have no money to show.

4. _ Sign Language
By bob dylan
You speak to me in sign language,
As i'm eating a sandwich in a small cafe
At a quarter to three.
But i can't respond to your sign language.
You're taking advantage, bringing me down.
Can't you make any sound?
'twas there by the bakery, surrounded by fakery.
This is my story, still i'm still there.
Does she know i still care?
Link wray was playing on a jukebox, i was paying
For the words i was saying, so misunderstood.
He didn't do me no good.

By calvin carter
I got a maserati g.t.
With snakeskin upholstery.
I got a charge account at goldblatt's,
But i ain't got you.
I got a closet full of clothes,
But no matter where it goes,
It keeps a ring in the nose,
But i ain't got you.
I got a tavern and a liquor store.
I play the numbers, yeah, four forty-four.
I got a mojo, yeah, don't you know,
I'm all dressed up with no place to go.

But i ain't got you.
No, i ain't got you.

By eric clapton
Life is what you make it,
That's what the people say.
And if i can't make it through tomorrow,
I'd better make it through today.
I have had my share of troubles;
It's nothing new to me.
When i look around me,
All is see is misery.
Life is what you make it,
At least that's what the people say.
And if we can't make it through tomorrow
We'd better make it through today, through today.
Through today.

9. _ Have You Ever Loved A Woman
(by billy myles)
Have you ever loved a woman so much you tremble in pain?
Have you ever loved a woman so much you tremble in pain?
And all the time you know she bears another man's name.
But you just love that woman so much it's a shame and a sin.
You just love that woman so much it's a shame and a sin.
But all the time you know she belongs to your very best friend.
Have you ever loved a woman and you know you can't leave her alone?
Have you ever loved a woman and you know you can't leave her alone?
Something deep inside of you won't let you wreck your best friend's home.

10. _ Got To Get Better In A Little While
By eric clapton
Don't you know what's wrong with me?
I'm seeing things i don't want to see.
Sniffing things that ain't no good for me.
I'm going down fast, won't you say a prayer for me?
It's got to get better in a little while.
It's got to get better in a little while.
It's got to get better in a little while.
It's got to get better in a little while.
The sun's got to shine on my guitar someday.
Revolution all across the land.
Just like sly, you got to take a stand.
Please don't hurt nobody, don't knock them down;
Give them a helping hand to get off the ground.
Chorus
The sun's got to shine on my guitar someday.
Still one thing that you can do;
Fall down on your knees and pray.
I know the lord's gonna answer you.
Don't do it tomorrow, do it today.

11. _ Can't Find My Way Home
By steve winwood
Come down off your throne and leave your body alone.
Somebody must change.
You are the reason i've been waiting so long.
Somebody holds the key.
But i'm near the end and i just ain't got the time
And i'm wasted and i can't find my way home.
Come down on your own and leave your body alone.
Somebody must change.
You are the reason i've been waiting all these years.
Somebody holds the key.

But i can't find my way home.
But i can't find my way home.

No one waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long.
You know it's just your foolish pride.
Layla, you've got me on my knees.
Layla, i'm begging, darling please.

When your old man had let you down.
Like a fool, i fell in love with you,
Turned my whole world upside down.

Before i finally go insane.
Please don't say we'll never find a way
And tell me all my love's in vain.

Motherless children have a hard time when mother is dead, lord.
Motherless children have a hard time when mother is dead, lord.
They don't have anywhere to go;
Wandering around from door to door.
Nobody treats you like a mother will when your mother is dead, lord.
Father will do the best he can when your mother is dead, lord.
Father will do the best he can when your mother is dead, lord.
Father will do the best he can;
So many things a father can't understand.
Nobody treats you like a mother will when your mother is dead, lord.
Sister will do the best she can when your mother is dead, lord.
Sister will do the best she can when your mother is dead, lord.
Sister will do the best she can;
So many things a sister can't understand.
Nobody treats you like a mother will when your mother is dead.
When your mother is dead, when your mother is dead.
When your mother is dead, lord, when your mother is dead.

21. _ Anyone For Tennis
By eric clapton and martin sharp
Twice upon a time in the valley of the tears
An auctioneer is bidding for a box of fading years
And the elephants are dancing on the graves of squealing mice.
Anyone for tennis, wouldn't that be nice?
And the ice creams are all melting on the streets of bloody beer
While the beggars stain the pavements with flourescent christmas cheer
And the bentley-driving guru is putting up his price.
Anyone for tennis, wouldn't that be nice?
And the prophets in the boutiques give out messages of hope
With jingle bells and fairy tales and blind colliding scopes
And you can tell they're all the same underneath the pretty lies.
Anyone for tennis, wouldn't that be nice?
The yellow buddhist monk is burning brightly at the zoo
You can bring a bowl of rice and then a glass of water too
And fate is setting up the chessboard while death rolls out the dice.
Anyone for tennis, wouldn't that be nice?

23. _ If I Don't Be There By Morning
By bob dylan and helena springs
Blue sky upon the horizon,
Private eye is on my trail,
And if i don't be there by morning
You know that i must have spent the night in jail.
I've been running from memphis to l. a.
Had an appointment set sometime for today,
And if i don't be there by morning
You know that i must have gone the other way.
Finding my way back to you girl,
Lonely and blue and mistreated too.
Sometimes i think of you girl,
Is it true that you think of me too?
I got a woman living in l. a.
I got a woman waiting for my pay,
And if i don't be there by morning,
Pack my clothes, get down on your knees and pray.
Chorus
I left my woman with a twenty dollar bill.
I left her waiting, i hope she's waiting for me still.
If i don't be there by morning
You know that i, i never will.

I told you not to wander 'round in the dark.
I told you 'bout the swans, that they live in the park.
Then i told you 'bout our kid, now he's married to mabel.
Yes, i told you that the light goes up and down.
Don't you notice how the wheel goes 'round?
And you better pick yourself up from the ground
Before they bring the curtain down,
Yes, before they bring the curtain down.

She didn't have the time to wait in the queue.
She cried away her life since she fell off the cradle.

Go to find the answer

To check out on my mind.

Friend that i can count on.

Only ask'n you will get what you are needin',
The rest is up to you.

It won't be too hard to be alone.

I'm gonna miss you, baby.
I can't forgive you,
Instead i'm gonna miss you, baby.
No, don't say a word.
I already heard that you don't love me.
In your state of mind,
I don't need to hear your side of the story.
Your friends all said we had a future
And i don't think i really want to know.
My friends keep telling me to lose you
And how glad they'll be when you decide to go.

Sometime, somehow, someone's got to care.
If you think you're better off without me,

Gonna miss the air you breathe.

39. _ Wrapping Paper
By jack bruce and pete brown
Wrapping paper in the gutter
Moving slowly as the wind on the sea,
(faces calling, waves moving)
In your picture on a wall of a house of old times.
(can you hear me) can you hear me
(can you hear me) wandering sadly?
In the city, feeling pretty,
Down and out and making love to you on the shore,
(ruined buildings, faces empty)
In the picture as i gaze ahead and don't see
(that they're calling) that they're calling.
(that they're calling) wandering sadly.
Shattered windows, stairs to nowhere.
(hear you calling) hear you calling
(hear you calling) as i wander so sadly.
Wish i knew what you'd done to me;
Turned me on to things i never knew.
It's all broken, weeds are growing.
Wish i was going home to the house by the shore
(where you loved me) where you loved me,
(where you loved me) loved me so sadly.
Someday i'll get back, somehow i'll do it.
I'll arrive there and you'll be there to meet me.
(walk together, tread the weeds down)
Kiss again in the picture on the wall
(where i loved you) in the old house.
(where i loved you) loved you so well.

42. _ I Shot The Sheriff
By bob marley
I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy.
I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy.
All around in my home town
They're trying to track me down.
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy,
For the life of a deputy.
But i say:
I shot the sheriff, but i swear it was in self-defense.
I shot the sheriff, and they say it is a capital offense.
Sheriff john brown always hated me;
For what i don't know.
Every time that i plant a seed
He said, "kill it before it grows."
He said, "kill it before it grows."
I say:
I shot the sheriff, but i swear it was in self-defense.
I shot the sheriff, but i swear it was in self-defense.
Freedom came my way one day
And i started out of town.
All of a sudden i see sheriff john brown
Aiming to shoot me down.
So i shot, i shot him down.
I say:
I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy.
I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy.
Reflexes got the better of me
And what is to be must be.
Every day the bucket goes to the well,
But one day the bottom will drop out,
Yes, one day the bottom will drop out.
But i say:
I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy, oh no.
I shot the sheriff, but i did not shoot the deputy, oh no.

43. _ Honey In Your Hips
By kieth relf
When i get out on the dancing floor,
There ain't no stopping for an hour more.
I go rocking up and down and around and round.
I go reeling to the beat of that crazy sound.
I can't stop, i want to kiss your pretty lips,
'cause i know, pretty babe, you got honey in your hips.
I can't stop my feet and i can't stop my hands
When i hear the sound of a rock 'n' roll band.
Gotta rock, gotta roll, gonna jump and shout;
Nobody better come and turn me out.
I'm staying all night till i get my kicks,
'cause you know, pretty babe, you got honey in your hips.
I want you and you want me.
We're gonna dance all night till we both feel free.
We'll shake and we'll shimmy right across the floor.
When it gets late, we'll dance out the door.
You better get ready with your pretty lips,
'cause you know, pretty babe, you got honey in your hips.

44. _ Key To The Highway
(by charles segar and willie broonzy)
I got the key to the highway,
Billed out and bound to go.
I'm gonna leave here running;
Walking is most too slow.
I'm going back to the border
Woman, where i'm better known.
You know you haven't done nothing,
Drove a good man away from home.
Live verse: when the moon peeks over the mountains
I'll be on my way.
I'm gonna roam this old highway
Until the break of day.
Oh give me one, one more kiss mama
Just before i go,
'cause when i leave this time you know i,
I won't be back no more.

46. _ Wonderful Tonight
(by eric clapton)
It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me
Do i look alright
And i say yes, you look wonderful tonight
We go a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
Who's walking around with me
And then she asks me
Do you feel alright
And i say yes, i feel wonderful tonight
I feel wonderful
Because i see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize
How much i love you
It's time to go home now
And i've got an aching head
So i give her the car keys
She helps me to bed
And then i tell her
As i turn out the light
I say my darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight

(by elmore james, morgan robinson and clarence lewis)
The sky is crying, look at the tears rolling down the streets.
The sky is crying, look at the tears rolling down the streets.
I looked out my window, the rain was falling down in sheets.
My baby left me this morning, lord knows i don't know the reason why.
My baby left me this morning, i don't know the reason why.
And everytime i think about it, i hang my head and cry.
The sun is shining, although it's raining in my heart.

I love my baby, i hate to see us part.

49. _ Tales Of Brave Ulysses
By eric clapton and martin sharp
You thought the leaden winter would bring you down forever,
But you rode upon a steamer to the violence of the sun.
And the colors of the sea blind your eyes with trembling mermaids,
And you touch the distant beaches with tales of brave ulysses:
How his naked ears were tortured by the sirens sweetly singing,
For the sparkling waves are calling you to kiss their white laced lips.
And you see a girl's brown body dancing through the turquoise,
And her footprints make you follow where the sky loves the sea.
And when your fingers find her, she drowns you in her body,
Carving deep blue ripples in the tissues of your mind.
The tiny purple fishes run laughing through your fingers,
And you want to take her with you to the hard land of the winter.
Her name is aphrodite and she rides a crimson shell,
And you know you cannot leave her for you touched the distant sands
With tales of brave ulysses; how his naked ears were tortured
By the sirens sweetly singing.
The tiny purple fishes run lauging through your fingers,
And you want to take her with you to the hard land of the winter.

51. _ Spoonful
By willie dixon
Could fill spoons full of diamonds,
Could fill spoons full of gold.
Just a little spoon of your precious love
Will satisfy my soul.
Men lies about it.
Some of them cries about it.
Some of them dies about it.
Everything's a-fightin' about the spoonful.
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.
Could fill spoons full of coffee,
Could fill spoons full of tea.
Just a little spoon of your precious love;
Is that enough for me?
Chorus
Could fill spoons full of water,
Save them from the desert sands.
But a little spoon of your forty-five
Saved you from another man.

As i am strolling down the garden path,
I saw a flower glowing in the dark.
It looked so pretty and it was unique;
I had to bend down just to have a peek.
Hello old friend,
It's really good to see you once again.
Hello old friend,
It's really good to see you once again.
I saw you walking underneath the stars;
I couldn't stop 'cause i was in a car.
I'm sure the distance wouldn't be too far
If i got out and walked to where you are.
Chorus
An old man passed me on the street today;
I thought i knew him but i couldn't say.
I stopped to think if i could place his frame.
When he tipped his hat i knew his name.

Asked the lord above for mercy, "save me if you please."

Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by.
I'm going down to rosedale, take my rider by my side.

And i'm standing at the crossroads, believe i'm sinking down.

She's a witch of trouble in electric blue,
In her own mad mind she's in love with you.

Now what you gonna do?
Strange brew -- kill what's inside of you.
She's some kind of demon messing in the glue.
If you don't watch out it'll stick to you.
To you.
What kind of fool are you?
Strange brew -- kill what's inside of you.
On a boat in the middle of a raging sea,
She would make a scene for it all to be
Ignored.
And wouldn't you be bored?
Strange brew -- kill what's inside of you.
Strange brew, strange brew, strange brew, strange brew.
Strange brew -- kill what's inside of you.

I took my baby to see a show.
She was telling me she didn't want to go.
I said, "come on girl, what's the matter with you?"
But i could tell by the smell that she'd had a few.
I said hold on girl don't get too tight,
You started early and we've got all night.
You've got to take it easy, take it slow.
We don't want the whole world to know
About the shape you're in.
Well, my little girl really loves that wine.
Wine will do it to her most everytime.
If it's red or it's white or it's in between,
She can drink more wine than i've ever seen.
Chorus
Now i'm not trying to get heavy with you.
I'll mind my own business if you want me to.
But i love you girl, i don't love no one else.
I'm just telling you baby 'cause i've been there myself.

And the man you love, he hurts you all the time.

You love him more when you should love him less.
I pick up behind him and take his mess.
When things go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me, too.
He love another woman and i love you,
But you love him and stick to him like glue.
When things go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me, too.

Oh, i won't stand to see you pushed around.

You looked so good, though the air was bad,
Walking through the fog.

For getting me back on my feet again.

In the white room with black curtains near the station.
Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.
You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As i walked out, felt my own need just beginning.
I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back;
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.
I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.

We made a vow we'd always be friends.
How could we know that promises end?
