Sleep all day, out all night
  
I know where you're goin'
  
I don't think that's actin' right
  
You don't think it's showin'
  
  
  
Jumpin' up, fallin' down
  
Don't misunderstand me
  
You don't think that I know your plan
  
What you try'n ta hand me?
  
  
  
Out all night, sleep all day
  
I know what you're doin'
  
If you're gonna act that way
  
I think there's trouble brewin'

Every time I try, you think that it's funny

Don't want to break you
  
I just want to make it, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, hey
Woman
  
Oh, how about you and me?
  
Woman
  
Think about what it could be
  
Wanna take you home, do things to you
  
Every time I try, you just think that I'm foolin'
  
Woman, woah
  
How about you and me?
  
Don't wanna break you

Oh, woman, yeah

Wanna take you home, spend my time with you
  
You see it, babe, it's clear that I miss you
Woman, yeah, yeah, yeah
  
I don't want you to act so bad
  
I don't wanna break you
  
I just wanna make it, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ah, ah, ah, ah woman
  
Why do you, why do you act that way?
  
Woman, yeah, yeah, yeah
  
You know what?
  
Ah, good God!
  
Ya know what?

When I became of age my mama sat me down
  
Said "Son, you're growin' up, it's time you looked around"
  
So I began to notice some things I hadn't seen before
  
That's what brought me here knockin' on your back door
  
Oh, yeah
  
  
  
A closet queen, the bus stop's dream, she wants to shake my hand
  
I don't want to be there, she decides she can
  
It's Apple Dan, he's just the man to pick fruit off your branches
  
I can't sleep, and we can't keep this cattle on my ranches
  
Oh, yeah
  
  
  
It's too strong, something's wrong and I guess I lost the feelin'
  
I don't mind the games you play, but I don't like your dealin'
  
God looked bad, the luck's been had and there's nothin' left to smoke
  
Will I be back tomorrow for the punchline of the joke?
  
  
  
  
  Tend My Garden
  
(Joe Walsh)
  
  
Would you like to come home with me?
  
I can think of things to show ya
  
Thinkin' that I'd like to know ya, uh
  
Mornin' milkman's comin'
  
Get up, greet my day
  
Evenin' brings the sun in
  
Still I find my way
  
  
  
Change of plans, makin' a landin' to see ya
  
And I do wanna be your man, oh, yeah
  
Sunday, highway drivin'
  
It all looks about the same
  
Nowhere, just arrivin'
  
Still I play the game
  
  
I'm home grown, growin' my own and I need ya
  
Need ya to beg my pardon, to tend my garden
  
Flowers, she's sittin' for poses
  
She wants me to sing my song
  
Hours, she's like a stoned Moses
  
Guess I'll sing along
  
  
  
  
  Garden Gate
  
(Joe Walsh)
  
Well I’m sitting in the middle of a story
  
Would you like to read my line
  
Sipping on a morning glory
  
Would you like to taste my wine
  
Don’t forget to tell the sun
  
I sleep through the day
  
See him when the morning comes
  
Everything’s OK
  
  
The captain’s in the chartroom
  
Navigating on a star
  
Can’t know where we’re going
  
'Cause he don’t know where we are
  
Don’t you think I don’t know
  
How to tell the time
  
Can’t you see you can’t sell me
  
Something that is mine
  
  
  
You just sit to talking
  
And I’m sure there’s nothing said
  
Your book is lying open
  
And I don’t think much is read
  
The dog is outside barking
  
At something he can’t see
  
The garden gate is closing
  
  
  
  There I Go Again
  
(Joe Walsh)
  
  
Hey‚ ooh‚ what’ll I do
  
Looks like it’s the end
  
Ooh‚ hey‚ could you please stay
  
There I go again
  
  
You know I hate to lose her
  
The good thing that I had
  
I would rather lose her
  
Then watch it all go bad
  
I guess I’ll just go on ahead
  
There’s still some things to come
  
Yes‚ things are pretty much said
  
Back where I came from
  
  
Hey‚ ooh‚ what’ll I do
  
Looks like it’s the end
  
Ooh‚ hey‚ could you please stay
  
There I go again
  
  
It may be that I found my way
  
And not see her again
  
Tomorrow is a brighter day
  
Why should I pretend
  
I know I won’t see her again
  
We’ve gone our separate ways
  
Making love every now and then
  
I don’t have much to say
  
  
Hey‚ ooh‚ what’ll I do
  
Looks like it’s the end
  
Ooh‚ hey‚ could you please stay
  
There I go again
  
Hey‚ ooh‚ what’ll I do
  
Looks like it’s the end
  
Ooh‚ hey‚ could you please stay
  
There I go again
  
  
  
  
  Thanks
  
(Joe Walsh)
  
 Thanks to the hand that feed you
  
Give the dog a bone
  
Thanks to the man that gives you
  
Haven't got your own
 That's the way the world is
  
Get just what you can
  
Wake up again tomorrow
  
A little less a man, yeah, yeah, yeah
  
Oh, yeah
Yes to the man above you
  
Hope you pass the test
  
No to the man below you
  
Leave him with the rest
 That's the way the world is
  
Get just what you can
  
Wake up again tomorrow
  
A little less a man, yeah, oh, yeah 
Everybody knows, everybody goes
  
To make a buck today
  
But that ain't the way it should be
  
It's changin' every way, yeah
Thanks to them that feed you
  
Give the dog a bone
  
Thanks to them that give you
  
You haven't got your own
 That's the way the world is
  
Get just what you can
  
Wake up again tomorrow
  
A little less a man
  
Yeah, oh, yeah, mmm....
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Ashes The Rain And I

Lead Tab  | Rhythm Tab
  
Sometimes I sit and I stare at the rain
  
Isn't rain filled with sorrow?
  
Wonder if I'll see my home again
  
Will it be dry tomorrow?
  
Time passes softly and I'm a day older
  
But still I m living days gone by
  
Ashes to ashes, the rain's turning colder
  
Finding tomorrow, the ashes, the rain and I
