I TOLD YOU SO! Dbarron v: Bm E ch: A D E D 158-156 bpm
when I read about this it makes me mad
something tells me we're about to be had
no way in hell this is gonna work
time to stand down you stupid jerk
I hate to say I told you so
I told you so oh oh
I love to say I told you NO
I told you NO NO NO
is it a done deal ... is it good to go?
well me and my posse say no no no
read all about it in Field of Schemes
soak us for millions ...not in your dreams!!!
chorus
b r e ak over verse
looking for a handout and some government cash
you're spreading propoganda like a well worn rash
we've seen it all before you're feeding us a line
stuff your shady deal Where the sun don't shine

EMPTY MAN /HOLLOW MAN barron
E7 got a shed and it's A7 made out of wood
E7 ain't the biggest in the A7 neighbourhood
E7 I like to hang out there A7 everyday
E7 wouldn't have it any A7 other way
E7 got a party palace A7 out on a lake
E7 people think it's really A7 great
E7 keep my party favours A7 up on the shelf
E7 i don't share'em cause i A7 live by myself
B7 But then again I got no A7 plan
E7 i"m an Empty Man A7 E7 i'm an empty man A7
i ride a highway.. it's all Hot Air .. / i like to feel the road in my hair
I roll along like a tumbling dice / hit the jackpot, now wouldn't that be nice
I got no dog.. I threw away the bone / i got no lover cause i live all alone
they say life's like an empty cup/ someone please come and fill me up
B7 But then again I got no A7 plan
E7 i"m an Empty Man A7 E7 i'm an empty man A7
break (over verse structure)
the sun is shining and the day is half done / i missed the game .. i wonder who won
i pull my duvet up over my head / maybe it's time i got outta bed
i can't believe who i see in the mirror / i start my day with a bottle of beer
i need a reason + a master plan / like Delbert says i'm dying fast as i can
B7 But then again I got no A7 plan
E7 i"m an Empty Man A7 (EMPTY MAN!) E7 i'm an empty man A7(EMPTY MAN!)
E7 i"m an Hollow Man A7 (HOLLOW MAN) E7 i'm an empty man A7(EMPTY MAN!)
E7 i"m an Shallow Man A7 (SHALLOW MAN) E7 i'm an empty man A7(EMPTY MAN!)
E7 i"m an Empty Man A7 (EMPTY MAN!) E7 i'm an empty man A7(EMPTY MAN!)

The Look in Your Eyes Barron
verse D Am C G
chorus d Am
Verse
D Am C G
hit the road on a summer day , beat up old pick up... big getaway
found a river that was covered in weeds, there by the meadow we planted some seeds
just the water and the sky up above, savour the moment + falling in love
rolled around like a couple of kids, and under a tree you know what we did
chorus
D Am
I can tell by the look in your eye
D Am
It’s coming on and it feels so right
D Am G
I can tell by the look in your eye tonight
found a book that had never been read, turn off the light crawl into bed
had a dream that i'll never forget lost on a runway we highjacked a jet
flew away on an ocean of blue, little idea of what we should do
morning comes and we’re barefoot on stone
always together … and never alone
chorus
vamp C G D
