############## I WILL SURVIVE #######################################################
[Verse 1 - Drums stop] (Down octave to rest the voice)
At [Gm] first I was afraid, I was [Cm] petrified,
Kept thinking [F] I could never live without you [Bbmaj7] by my side.
But then I [Ebmaj7] spent so many nights, thinking [Am7b5] how you did me wrong,
And I grew [Dsus4] strong; and I learned [D] how to get along.
[Drums back in- Vocals back up an octave]
And so you're [Gm] back, from outer [Cm] space,
I just walked [F] in to find you here, with that sad
[Bbmaj7] look upon your face.
I should have [Ebmaj7] changed that stupid lock,
I should have [Am7b5] made you leave your key,
If I had [Dsus4] known for just one second, you'd be
[D] back to bother to me
[Chorus]
Go on now, [Gm] go; walk out the [Cm] door;
Just turn a [F] round now, 'cos you're not [Bbmaj7] welcome any more.
[Ebmaj7] Weren't you the one who tried to [Am7b5] hurt me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd [Dsus4] crumble; did you think I'd [D] lay down and die?
Oh no, not [Gm] I; I will sur [Cm] vive,
Oh, as [F] long as I know how to love, I [Bbmaj7] know I'll stay alive.
I've got [Ebmaj7] all my life to live, I've got [Am7b5] all my love to give,
And I'll sur [Dsus4] vive, I will sur [D] vive, cos I'M OUTTA LOVE
################# OUTTA LOVE ###########################################
[Chorus]
[Gm] love .... set me [D] free and let me [F] out this mise [C] ry.
Just show me the [Gm] way to get my [D] life again.
[F] You can't handle [C] me, said I'm outta [Gm] love can't you [D] see,
baby, that [D#] you gotta set me [D] free? I'm outta (drums stop)
[Gm] looo oove
[Verse 1]
[Gm] Now baby come [D] on,
don't [F] claim that love you [C] never let me [Gm] feel.
I should have [D] known 'cause [F] you brought nothing [C] real.
Come on be a [Gm] man about it, [D] you won't die.
[D#-x65343] I ain't got no more (fast change) [Cm] tears to [D] cry,
and I [Gm] can't take this no [D] more.
You know I [D#] gotta let it [D] go and you know.[D].. (stop)

We're still building
[G] Then burning down love, burning down love
[Bm] And when I go there

Don Maclean-American Pie
[Intro BPM 138]
A [G] long, [D/F#] long time [Em7] ago
[Am] I can still re [C] member how that [Em] music
used to make me [D] smile
And [G] I knew [D/F#] if I had [Em7] my chance
That [Am] I could make those [C] people dance and
[Em] maybe they'd be [C] happy for a [D] while
But [Em] February [Am] made me shiver, [Em] with every
paper I'd [Am] deliver
[C] Bad news [G/B] on the [Am] doorstep, I couldn't
[C] take one more step [D]
I [G] can't remem [D/F#] ber if I [Em] cried when I
[Am7] read about his [D] widowed bride
[G] Something [D/F#] touched me [Em] deep inside
The [C] day the [D7] music died [G]
[Chorus]
So [G] bye, [C] bye Miss [G] American [D] Pie
Drove my [G] Chevy to the [C] levy but the [G] levy was
[D] dry
And them [G] good old [C] boys were drinkin'
[G] whiskey and [D] rye
Singin' [Em*] this will be the day that I [A7*]
die, [Em*] this will be the day that I die [D7]
[Verse 2]
[G] Did you write the [Am] book of love
And do [C] you have faith in [Am] God above,
[Em] if the bible [D] tells you so?
[G] Do you [D/F#] believe in [Em] rock and roll
Can [Am7] music save your [C] mortal soul and
[Em] can you teach me [A7] how to dance [D] real slow?
Well I [Em*] know that you're in [D*] love with him
'cuz I [Em*] saw you dancin' [D*] in the gym
You [C] both kicked [G/B] off your [Am] shoes, man
I [C] dig those rhythm and [D7] blues
I was a [G] lonely [D/F#] teenage [Em] bronckin' buck
with a [Am] pink carnation and a [C] pickup truck
But [G] I knew [D/F#] I was [Em] out of luck the
[C] day the [D7] music [G] died [C] , [G] I started [D] singin'
[Chorus]
So [G] bye, [C] bye Miss [G] American [D] Pie
Drove my [G] Chevy to the [C] levy but the [G] levy was
[D] dry
And them [G] good old [C] boys were drinkin'
[G] whiskey and [D] rye
Singin' [Em*] this will be the day that I [A7*]
die, [Em*] this will be the day that I die [D7]
[Verse 3]
Now for [G] ten years we've been [Am] on our own
and [C] moss grows fat on a [Am] rolling stone
[Em] but that's not how it [D] used to be
When the [G] jester [D/F#] sang for the king [Em]
and queen
in a [Am7] coat he borrowed [C] from James Dean
in a [Em] voice that came [A7] from you and [D] me
Oh, and [Em*] while the king was [D*] looking down,
the [Em*] jester stole his thorny [D*] crown
The [C] courtroom [G/B] was ad [A7] journed,
[C] no verdict was re [D7] turned
And while [G] Lennin read [D/F#] a book [Em] on Marx,
the [Am] quartet practiced [C] in the park
And [G] we sang [D/F#] dirges [Em] in the dark the
[C] day the [D7] music [G] died [C] , [G] we were [D] singin'
[Chorus]
[G] bye, [C] bye Miss [G] American [D] Pie
Drove my [G] Chevy to the [C] levy but the [G] levy was
[D] dry
And them [G] good old [C] boys were drinkin'
[G] whiskey and [D] rye
Singin' [Em*] this will be the day that I [A7*]
die, [Em*] this will be the day that I die [D7]
[Verse 4]
[G] Helter skelter in a [Am] summer swelter
[C] the birds flew off with [Am] a fallout shelter,
[Em] eight miles high and [D] fallin' fast
[G] It landed [D/F#] foul [Em] on the grass
the [Am7] players tried for a [C] forward pass
[Em] with the jester on the [A7] sidelines in a [D] cast
Now the [Em*] half-time air was [D*] sweet perfume,
while [Em*] sergeants played a [D*] marching tune
[C] We all got [G/B] up to dance [A7] but we
[C] never got the [D7] chance
'Cuz the [G] players [D/F#] tried to [Em] take the field,
the [Am] marching band re [C] fused to yield
Do [G] you re [D/F#] call what [Em] was revealed the
[C] day the [D7] music [G] died [C] , [G] we started [D] singin'
[Chorus]
[G] bye, [C] bye Miss [G] American [D] Pie
Drove my [G] Chevy to the [C] levy but the [G] levy was
[D] dry
And them [G] good old [C] boys were drinkin'
[G] whiskey and [D] rye
Singin' [Em*] this will be the day that I [A7*]
die, [Em*] this will be the day that I die [D7]
[Verse 5]
And [G] there we were all [Am] in one place
a [C] generation [Am] lost in space, [Em] with
no time left to [D] start again
So come on [G] Jack be [D/F#] nimble, [Em] Jack be
quick, [Am7] Jack Flash sat on a [C] candle
stick, [Em] 'cuz fire is the devil's [A7] only friend [D]
And as [Em*] I watched him [D*] on the stage, my
[Em*] hands were clenched in [D*] fists of rage
No [C] angel [G/B] born in [A7] Hell could
[C] break that Satan's [D7] spell
And as the [G] flames climbed [D/F#] high into [Em]
the night to [Am] light the sacri [C] ficial rite
I saw [G] Satan [D/F#] laughing [Em] with delight
the [C] day the [D7] music [G] died [C] [G]
he was [D] singin'
[Chorus]
[G] bye, [C] bye Miss [G] American [D] Pie
Drove my [G] Chevy to the [C] levy but the [G] levy was
[D] dry
And them [G] good old [C] boys were drinkin'
[G] whiskey and [D] rye
Singin' [Em*] this will be the day that I [A7*]
die, [Em*] this will be the day that I die [D7]
[Verse 6]
I [G] met a [D/F#] girl who [Em] sang the blues
And I [Am] asked her for some [C] happy news, but
[Em] she just smiled and turned [D] away
I [G] went down [D/F#] to the [Em] sacred store
Where I'd [Am] heard the music [C] years before,
but [Em] the man there said [C] the music
wouldn't [D] play
But [Em*] in the streets the [Am*] children screamed,
the [Em*] lovers cried and the [Am*] poets dreamed
But [C] not a [G/B] word was [Am] spoken, the
[C] church bells all were [D] broken
And the [G] three men [D/F#] I admire [Em] most, the
[Am7] Father, [C] Son, and the [D7] Holy Ghost
[G] They caught the [D/F#] last train [Em] for
the coast the [C] day the [D7] music [G] died,
[N.C.] And they were singin'
[Chorus]
[G] bye, [C] bye Miss [G] American [D] Pie
Drove my [G] Chevy to the [C] levy but the [G] levy was
[D] dry
And them [G] good old [C] boys were drinkin'
[G] whiskey and [D] rye
Singin' [Em*] this will be the day that I [A7*]
die, [Em*] this will be the day that I die [D7]
They were singin' [G] bye, [C] bye Miss [G] American
[D] Pie
Drove my [G] Chevy to the [C] levy but the [G] levy
was [D] dry
And them [G] good old [C] boys were drinkin' [G] whiskey

Kenny Rogers-The Gambler
[Verse - No drums]
G C G
On a warm summer's evening on a train bound for nowhere
G G D
I met up with a gambler, we were both too tired to speak
G C G
So we took turns a-starin' out the window at the darkness
C G D7 G
'Til boredom overtook us and he began to speak.
G C G
He said, "Son, I've made a life out of readin' people's faces,
G D
Knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their eyes,
G C G
And if you don't mind me sayin', I can see you're out of aces,
C G D G
And for a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice."
(bass drum on 2 and 4 to begin with - no snare)
G C G
So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow;
G G D
Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light,
G C G
And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression,
C G D G
' said "If you're gon na play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right.
[Chorus - Half time shuffle]
G C G
You got to know when to hold 'em, Know when to fold 'em,
C G D
Know when to walk away And know when to run.
G D G C G
You never count your money When you're sittin' at the table;
C G D G
There'll be time enough for countin' When the dealin's done.
[Verse]
A D A
Every gambler knows that the secret to survivin'
A E
Is knownin' what to throw away and knowin' what to keep
A E A D A
'Cause every hand's a winner, and every hand's a loser,
D A E A
And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep."
[Verse]
A D A
And when he finished speakin', he turned back toward the window,
A E
Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep, (drums stop)
A E A D A
And somewhere in the darkness, the gambler, he broke even,
D A E A
But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep.
[Chorus - Drums back in]
A D A
You got to know when to hold 'em, Know when to fold 'em,
D A A E
Know when to walk away And know when to run.
A E A D A
You never count your money When you're sittin' at the table;
A D A E A
There'll be time enough for countin' When the dealin's done.
[Chorus]
A D A
You got to know when to hold 'em, Know when to fold 'em,
D A A E
Know when to walk away And know when to run.
A E A D A
You never count your money When you're sittin' at the table;
A D A E A
There'll be time enough for countin' When the dealin's done.
[Chorus - A Cappella]

You got to know when to hold 'em, Know when to fold 'em,

Know when to walk away And know when to run.

We're off to never-never land
Note : This tab for the solo is greatly inspired by the original
tab of the solo, and many thanks to the author of that tab. It
Was quite accurate but wrong in a couple of places, basiclly here
I changed it to be as close as possible to Kirk.
For the solo, James plays the main riff twice, then his part of
the prechorus, and his part of the chorus. Its amazing how well
the solo fits in.

Nice approach - when you want to imply G chord play melody on E string so by virtue of fretting
the open G rings - then want to imply D, move melody to B string that naturally mutes the G string
and the low D string rings more
With A just play chord down the neck
Also really helps to be in open D tuning
[Violin Line 2 - relative to capo - note you can add trills and hammer ons and pulloffs and sounds great
stick to right string though for each chord]

I [E] call you when I need you, my heart's on fire
(riff - E Eadd6-022120 Emaj7-022444 E)
You [E] come to me, come to me wild and wired
When you come to [C#m] me
Give me everything I [A] need [A] (ring - drums stop then back in)
Give me a [E] lifetime of promises and a world of dreams
Speak the language of love like you know what it means
ohh, it can't be [C#m] wrong
Take my heart and make it [A] stronger baby

better than all the rest (riff again)
Better than [C#m] anyone, anyone I've [B7] ever met
I'm stuck on your [E] heart, (riff) I hang on every word you say (riff)
Tear us a [C#m] part, baby I would [B7] rather be dead
[Verse]
In your heart [E] I see the stars of every night and every day
In your eyes I get lost, I get washed away
Just as [C#m] long as I'm here in your arms
I could be in no [A] better place
[B] [B] [B] N.C.
[Chorus]
You're simply the best [E] (riff), better than all the rest (riff)

Tear us a [C#m] part, baby I would [B7] rather be dead
[Bridge - TOTAL HEAD VOICE]
[A] Each time you leave me I start losing control
You're [C#m] walking away with my heart and my soul
[A] I can feel you even when I'm alone
[B] Oh baby, don't let [C#] go
(Key change to F#)
[Sax Solo]

Tear us a [D#m] part, baby I would [C#7] rather be dead
Oh, you're the best [F#] .. (ring)
