The lyrics are finally here............Knock yourselves out!!!

Calm Today

 

 

Verse 1

            A

            Into the breach once again my friend

            F

            Turn round and face me walking, theres no more time for talking,

            A

            Upwards and onwards your favourite words

            F

            Strange how it all backfired, I'm getting very tired

            G                                                                                        A

            Can't stop the bond from breaking, show me the tunnel bring the light.

 

 

Verse 2

            A

            Into the dark, time is short my friend

            F

            Eyes closed & concentrating, the limbs are tired and aching,

            A

            You must decide how this has to end

            F

            Lights flashing in the distance, a victim needs assistance,

            G                                                                                         A

            How long have I been waiting, to get to hear from you tonight.

 

Chorus

            F                             G 

            Calm today, if its good to give then give me strength

            F                            G

            Calm today, open your eyes and see the way

            F                          G

            Calm today, get a grip lets pull in one direction

            F                                              A

             Calm today,            (yeah) calm today

Here comes trouble

 

 

 

Verse 1

            G

            Come on over here I want a word

            G

            Youve been causing trouble so I heard,

            G                          A#           C                            D#

            Dont you look at me, and act all innocently

            G                                                   A#        G

            Youve been causing trouble and you've been burned.

           

 

 

Verse 2

            G

            You do all the talking, you tell me

            G

            Just how so much trouble came to be,

            G                                 A#             C                                 D#

            You cruised right into town, and blew their straw house down

            G                                    A#    G

            Now I dont know which story to believe

           

 

 

Verse 3

            G

            Just how many people got involved,

            G

            Like all your other schemes they have dissolved,

            G                                 A#           C                 D#

            Your dust blows on the wind, it gathers to a cloud

            G                                 A#       G

            Then rains on all of us you must be proud

 

 

 

 

Instrumental Verse

 

                       

 

Verse 5

            G

            So stop all this now and guarantee  

G

            That for just 5 minutes you'll be trouble free,

            G                     A#       C                             D#

            Look me in the eyes; dont tell me no more lies

            G                                             A#       G

            Its your last chance to be or not to be.

 

 

 

 

Verse 6

 

G

            Come on over here I want a word

            G

            Youve been causing trouble so I heard,

            G                          A#           C                            D#

            Dont you look at me, and act all innocently

            G                                                   A#        G

            You've been causing trouble and you've been burned

            G                                                   A#        G

            You've been causing trouble and you've been burned

            G                                                   A#        G

            Yeah you've been causing trouble and you've been burned
