2.Whispers in the Dark
Chords to:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLCgb1QNIOQ

Capo 2

C AmYou hold your truth so purely
G F AmSwerve not through the minds of men
GThis lie, it is dead
C AmAnd this cup of yours tastes holy
G F AmA brush with the devil can clear your mind
GAnd strengthen your spine
Am F CBut fingers tap into what you were once
Am F CAnd I'm worried that I blew my only chance
F CWhispers in the dark
G AmSteal a kiss and you'll break a heart
F CPick up your clothes and curl your toes
G AmLearn your lesson, lead me home
F CSpare my sins for the ark
G AmI was to slow to depart
F AmI'm a cad but I'm not a flawed
G CI set out to serve the Lord.
F CBut my heart
F CWas colder when you'd gone
F CI lost my head
F CBut found the one that I loved
F CUnder the sun
G CUnder the sun
Am F CBut fingers tap into what you were once
Am F CAnd I'm worried that I blew my only chance
Am F CBut fingers tap into what you were once
Am F CAnd I'm worried that I blew my only chance
F CBut my heart
F C FWas colder when you'd gone
CI lost my head
F CBut still, while we are young
Am CWhile we are young
Am CWhile we are young
Am CWhile we are young

----------------------------------------------------- 7.Lovers' Eyes Chords to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duuALhoygD8 Capo 2
CLove was kind, for a time
G CNow just aches and it makes me blind
This mirror holds my eyes too bright
G CI can't see the others in my life
CWere we too young? And heads too strong?
G CTo bear the weight of these lover's eyes.
'Cause I feel numb, beneath your tongue
G CNeath the curse of these lover's eyes.
F CBut do not ask the price I pay,
G CI must live with my quiet rage,
F CTame the ghosts in my head,
G CThat run wild and wish me dead.
F CShould you shake my ash to the wind
G CLord, forget all of my sins
F COh, let me die where I lie
G C C FNeath the curse of my lover's eyes.
CThere's no drink nor drug I tried
G CTo rid the curse of these lover's eyes
And I feel numb, beneath your tongue
G CYour strength just makes me feel less strong
F CBut do not ask the price I pay,
G CI must live with my quiet rage,
F CTame the ghosts in my head,
G CThat run wild and wish me dead.
F CShould you shake my ash to the wind
G CLord, forget all of my sins
F COh, let me die where I lie
G C F CNeath the curse of my lover's eyes.
C G CAnd I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Am F CTake my hand, help me on my way.
C G CAnd I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Am F CTake my hand, I'll be on my way.
C G CAnd I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Am F CTake my hand, help me on my way.
C G CAnd I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Am F CTake my hand, I'll be on my way.

Am Em AmI'll never wear your broken crown
F AmI took the rope and threw it all away
F AmIn his twilight are choices seal our fate

----------------------------------------------------- 12.Not with Haste ----------------------------------------------------- 13.For those Below ----------------------------------------------------- 14.The Boxer Chords to:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQpUs1qNxMM Capo 5
GI am just a poor boy
EmThough my story's seldom told
DI have squandered my resistance
GFor a pocket full of mumbles such are promises
EmAll lies and jests
D CStill a man hears what he wants to hear
G D GAnd disregards the rest
GWhen I left my home and my family
EmI was no more than a boy
DIn the company of strangers
GIn the quiet of the railway station running scared
Em D CLaying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
GWhere the ragged people go
D C D GLooking for the places only they would know
EmLie-la-lie
BmLie-la-lie la lie-la-lie
EmLie la lie
D GLie-la-lie la la la la lie la la la la lie
GAsking only workman's wages
EmI come looking for a job
DBut I get no offers,
GJust a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
Em D CI do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome
GI took some comfort there
GThen I'm laying out my winter clothes
EmAnd wishing I was gone
DGoing home
GWhere the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
Em DBleeding me, going home
Lie la lie ...
GIn the clearing stands a boxer
EmAnd a fighter by his trade
DAnd he carries the reminders
Of ev'ry glove that layed him down
GOr cut him till he cried out
EmIn his anger and his shame
D C"I am leaving, I am leaving"
GBut the fighter still remains
EmLie-la-lie
BmLie-la-lie la lie-la-lie
EmLie la lie
D GLie-la-lie la la la la lie la la la la lie

F C Am CIt came to the end it seems you had heard
F CCause we walked the city streets,
Am CYou never said a word
F CWhen we finally sat down,
Am CYour eyes were full of spite
F CI was desperate, I was weak,
Am CI could not put up a fight
F CWhere are you now?
Am CWhere are you now?
F CDo you ever think of me
Am CIn the quiet, in the crowd?
F CYou were strangely less than pain
Am CThan you were cold
F CTriumphant in your mind
Am COf the logic that you hold.
F CYou said no one would ever know
Am CThe love that we had shared
F CAs I took my leave to go
Am CIt was clear that you didn't care.
F CWhere are you now?
Am CWhere are you now?
F CDo you ever think of me
Am CIn the quiet, in the crowd?
F CWhere are you now?
Am CWhere are you now?
F CDo you ever think of me
Am CIn the quiet, in the crowd?
F CAnd I hear of your coming
Am Cand your going in the town.
F CI hear stories of your smile,
Am CI hear stories of your frown.
F CYou said no one would ever know
Am CThe love that we had shared
F CAs I took my leave to go
Am CIt was clear that you didn't care.
F CWhere are you now?
Am CWhere are you now?
F CDo you ever think of me
Am CIn the quiet, in the crowd?
F CWhere are you now?
Am CWhere are you now?
F CDo you ever think of me
Am CIn the quiet, in the crowd?
F CWhere are you now?
Am CWhere are you now?
F CDo you ever think of me
Am CIn the quiet, in the crowd?
