There's always some reason to feel not good enough

And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction, a beautiful release

Memories seep from my veins
Dm7 F
Let me be empty, oh and weightless, and maybe
C F G
I'll find some peace tonight
(Chorus)

In the arms of the angel, fly away from here

You're in the arms of the angel, may you find some comfort here.
Dm7 F
So tired of this straight line, and everywhere you turn
C F G
There's vultures and theives at your back
Dm7 F
The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies
C F G
That you make up for all that you lack.
Dm7 F
It don't make no difference, escaping one last time
C F G
It's easier to believe
Dm7 F
In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness

That brings me to my knees.

Bm D E
Or let me sail away
Bm Bm7
Blue, here is a song for you
E
Ink of a pin
Underneath the skin
Bm D E
An empty space to fill in
Bm
Well there're so many sinking now
D
You've got to keep thinking
E E7
You can make it thru these waves
Bm
Acid, booze, and ass
D
Needles, guns, and grass
E7 A
Lots of laughs, lots of laughs
Bm
Well everybody's saying that hell's the hippest way to go
Bm7
Well I don't think so
But I'm gonna take a look around it though
Bm7 A E
Blue, I love you.
Bm7 Bm
Blue, here is a shell for you
E7
Inside you'll hear a sigh
A foggy lullaby
Bm A E D F#m Bm7 B
Here is my song from it
I will remember you
Tom: A
CHORUS:
A Bm E
I will remember you
A Bm E
Will you remember me?
A D A Bm
Don't let your life pass you by
A Bm E A
Weep not for the memories
A D E
Remember the good times that we had
A D E
Let them slip away from us when things got bad
A S E
Clearly I first saw you, smiling in the sun
A D
Wanna feel your warmth upon me,
E
Wanna be the one
A D E A
I'm so tired, I can't sleep
A D E A
Standing on the edge of something much too deep
A D E A
Funny how we feel so much, but we cannot say a word
A D E A
We are screaming inside, oh, we can't be heard
CHORUS:
A Bm E
I will remember you
A Bm E
Will you remember me?
A D A Bm
Don't let your life pass you by
A Bm E A
Weep not for the memories
-break- A, D, E, A (4x)
A D E A
I'm so afraid to love you; I'm more afraid to lose
A D E A
Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose
A D E A
Once there was a darkness; A deep and endless night
A D E
A
You gave me everything you had, oh, you gave me light
CHORUS:
A Bm E
I will remember you
A Bm E
Will you remember me?
A D A Bm
Don't let your life pass you by
A Bm E A
Weep not for the memories
A Bm E A
Weep not for the memories...

Crouching down inside a deep ravine
Am7 F
Those angry cries pass quickly by he can't be seen

So many ways spent hiding in so many undone plans
Am7 F
forgetting what it's like to fight when no one understands
Em
Close call there in the shadows

There's a fear in the dark
Dm
there's no one out there
Am7 F
All those memories pain and anger flood back one by one
Am7 F
They must be just around the bend they always come

At night as I lay sleeping they come to me in herds
Am7 F
There lies remain the dream the same it's only fleeting words
Em
No one calls there in the shadows
F
There's no end to the dark

Cause there's no one out there

no one but me...

Basted in Blood
Tom: Em
Em C
We gather together
Am
For yams, beans and cranberry sauce
Em C
But have you given much thought lately
Am
To the turkey holocaust
Em
Twenty million turkeys
C
Slaughtered every fall
Em
Ain't no difference 'tween Hitler, Stalin,
B7 Am Em
And the folks at Butterball, Butterball
Em C
So set your tables, America
Am
From Birmingham to Branson
Em C
But when you carve that turkey
Am
You're a finger-licking Charlie Manson
Em
Enjoy your pumpkin pie,
C
Your buttery Idaho spuds
Em
Grandma's chestnut stuffing
B7
And a turkey basted in blood
Am Em
Basted in blood
