David Gates - The Guitar Man Who draws the crowd and plays so loud, baby, it's the guitar man
Who's gonna steal the show, you know, baby, it's the guitar man
He can make you love, he can make you cry
He will bring you down and he'll get you high
Somethin' keeps him goin' miles and miles a day
To find another place to play
Night after night, who treats you right, baby, it's the guitar man
Who's on the radio, you go and listen to the guitar man
Then he comes to town and you see his face
And you think you might like to take his place
Somethin' keeps him driftin' miles and miles away
Searching for the songs to play
Then you listen to the music and you like to sing along
You want to get the meaning out of each and every song
Then you find yourself a message and some words to call your own and take 'em home
He can make you love, he can get you high
He will bring you down, then he'll make, make you cry
Somethin' keeps him movin', but no one seems to know
What it is that makes him go
Then the lights begin to flicker and the sound is getting dim
The voice begins to falter and the crowds are getting thin
But he never seems to notice, he's just got to find another place to play
Fade away
Got to play
Fade away
Got to play
David Gates: Sweet Surrender Baby I'm through runnin' it's true
I'd be a fool to try to escape you
Maybe I'm beat but oh what a sweet surrender
You keep your rights, I'll take your nights
No one can lose when we turn the lights out
Tastin' defeat, lovin' that sweet surrender
I'm givin' up myself to you but I didn't really lose at all
I gave the only love I've known and it never hurt me to fall
Bread - Look What You've Done You have taken the heart of me
And left just a part of me,
And look, look, look what you've done.
Well, you took all the best of me,
So come get the rest of me,
And look back, finish what you've begun.
There is some one you ought to meet;
It's me, Mister Incomplete.
Look, at what I've become.
For it's due to the lack of you
That I'm now only half of two.
Look back, finish what you've begun.
Come and sit by my side
Where there's nothing to hide.
You will try to decide what you needed;
But from where I stand today,
I can't think of the way
Or the words that I might say
That will change your mind and make you stay.
Oh, no, not for all the times I've pleaded.
Look, look, look what you've done.
You have taken the best of me,
So come get the rest of me,
And look back; finish what you've begun.
I'll be done.
"
Dismal Day "
I look into my morning mirror
And it reveals some things to me that I had not been able to see
I saw someone that I'm not sure I want to be
An empty lonely face was starin' back at me
All and all, I would have to say
It's been a rather dismal day
The afternoon was slow in coming
I drug myself outside the people that I knew would be there
And though they walked along pretending not to care
I knew behind my back they'd point and laugh and stare
CHORUS
And now the evening shadow's falling
I guess it's best I lay my hopes to rest for noone's calling my name
I sit and wait behind a door that's never knocked on
I live in silence like my phone that's never talked on
CHORUS
BREAD I NEED YOU A Amaj7, Em7
We used to laugh, we used to cry,
Dm7 G7 C
we used to bow our heads then, wonder why.
A Amaj7 Em7
But now you're gone, I guess I'll carry on,
Dm7 G7 C
and make the best of what you left to me,
Fmaj7 D7
left to me, left to me.
G Em
I need you like the flower needs the rain,
Bm Am7 D7
you know I need you, guess I'll start it all again.
G Em
You know I need you lke the winter needs the spring,
Bm D E
you know I need you, I need you.
A Amaj7 Em7
And ev'ry day I'd laugh the hours away,
Dm7 G7 C
Just knowing you were thinking of me,
A Amaj7 Em7
And then it came that I was put to blame
Dm7 G7 C
for ev'ry story told about me,
Fmaj7 D7
'bout me, about me.
G Em
I need you like the flower needs the rain,
Bm G7
you know I need you, guess I'll start it all again.
Cmaj7 Am
You know I need you, I need you,
G Em
I need you like the winter needs the spring,
Bm G7
you know I need you, guess I'll start it all again.
Cmaj7 Am
You know I need you, I need you,....(repeat chorus and
fade)

If a man could be two places at one time, i'd be with you. tomorrow and today, beside you all the way. if the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die, i'd spend the end with you. and when the world was through, then one by one the stars would all go out, then you and i would simply fly away Aubrey And aubrey was her name, a not so very ordinary girl or name. but who's to blame? for a love that wouldn't bloom for the hearts that never played in tune. like a lovely melody that everyone can sing, take away the words that rhyme it doesn't mean a thing. And aubrey was her name. we triped the light and danced together to the moon, but where was june. no it never came around. if it did it never made a sound, maybe i was absent or was listening to fast, catching all the words, but then the meaning going past, But god i miss the girl, and i'd go a thousand times around the world just to be closer to her than to me. And aubrey was her name, i never knew her, but i loved her just the same, i loved her name. wish that i had found the way and the reasons that would make her stay. i have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest. if i can't have the one i want, i'll do without the best. But how i miss the girl and i'd go a million times around the world just to say she had been mine for a day. ' ANYWAY YOU WANT ME ' Anyway you want me

Diary I found her diary underneath a tree. and started reading about me the words she's written took me by surpise you'd never read them in her eyes. they said that she had found the love she waited for. wouldn't you know it, she wouldn't show it. When she confronted with the writing there, simply pretended not to care. i passed it off as just in keeping with her total disconcerting air and though she tried to hide the love that she denied, wouldn't you know it, she wouldn't show it. And as i go through my life, i will give to her my wife all the sweet things that i can find. I found her diary underneath a tree. and started reading about me. the words began stick and tears to flow. her meaning now was clear to see. the love she'd waited for was someone else not me wouldn't you know it, she wouldn't show it. And as i go through my life, i will wish for her his wife all the sweet things that she can find all the sweet things they can find First time it's rained since I came to the city Seemed like a good time to write And even now as I look out my window Rain clouds are chasing the light The play games of magic in the night... Lately I've stayed with the lady from Denver She said to come by for awhile Took me on down to her place by the river Carried me off on her smile We play games of magic all the while... ' SUMMER BREEZE ' See the curtains hanging in the window in the evening on a friday night a little light a-shining through the window lets me know everythings alright Chorus: summer breeze makes me feel fine blowing through the jasmine in my mind summer breeze makes me feel fine blowing through the jasmine in my mind See the paper lying on the sidewalk a little music from the house next door so i walk on up to the door step through the screen and across the floor Repeat chorus Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom july is dressed up and playing her tune when i come home from a hard days work and you're waiting there, not a care in the world See the smile a-waiting in the kitchen food cooking and the plates for two feel the arms that reach out to hold me in the evening when the day is through Repeat chorus ' JUST WHEN I NEEDED YOU MOST ' You packed in the morning I stared out the window And I struggle for something to say You left in the rain without closing the door But I didn�t stand in your way Now I miss you more then I missed you before and now where will I find comfort? God knows Cause you left me Just when I needed you most (you) you just left me just when I needed you most now most every morning I stare at the window And I think about where you may be I�ve written you letters that I like to send If you would just send one to me Cause I need you more then I needed before and now where will I find comfort?
