But mischief knocked me in the knees so just let go, just let go
E5 G5 E5 G5
I saw the ocean meet the man, I saw you buried in the sand
E5 G5 D5 C5 E5
A friend was there to hold my hand, so walk on by
E5 G5 E5 G5
So I went walking through the stream , I saw you strung up in a tree
E5 G5 D5 C5 E5 D5 C5 E5
A woman out there said to me, said hold your tongue, hold your tongue
G5 D5 C5 E5 G5 D5 C5 E5
you Don't owe me anything, you don't want this sympathy [waste your breath]
G5 D5 C5 D5 C5 E5
Don't you waste your breath [waste your breath] for the silver screen
E5 G5 E5 G5
That nonsense doesn't mean a thing, they tried to bust you in a sting

Now Here's a rhyme that you must hear, put this on your reel to reel
E5 G5 D5 C5 E5 D5 C5 E5
Mischief through a rotten deal, Monty's laying low, he is laying low

Nightswimming deserves a quiet night...
G5 B(note)->C5 D5
G5 B(note)->C5 A5 C5 D5
(over and over again for the whole song... the two lines above are played
for each line)
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
The photograph on the dashboard taken years ago
Turn around backwards so the windshield shows
Every streetlight reveals a picture and a verse
Still It's so much clearer
I forgot my shirt at the water's edge
The moon is low tonight
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night
i'm not sure all these people understand
It's not like years ago
The fear of getting caught
The recklessness in water
They cannot see me naked
These things they go away
Replaced by every day
Nightswimming remembering that night
September's coming soon
i'm pining for the moon
and what if there were two
Side by side in orbit
Around the fairest sun
A bright type could never drawn
could not describe, Nightswimming
You I thought I knew you, you I cannot judge,
you I thought you knew me, this one laughing quietly, underneath my breath
Nightswimming
The photograph reflects every streetlight a reminder
Nightswimming deserves a quiet night, deserves a quiet night

FIRST WE TAKE MANHATTAN (Leonard Cohen) [B-Side to "Drive"]
D5 A5
They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
D5 A5
For trying to change the system from within
D5 A5
I'm coming now I'm coming to reward them
G5 F5 E5 A5
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
D5 A5
I'm guided by a signal in the heavens
D5 A5
I'm guided by this birthmark on my skin
D5 A5
I'm guided by the beauty of our weapons
G5 F5 E5 A5
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
C5 G5 F5
I'd really like to live beside you, baby
C5 A5
I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
C5 A5
But you see that line there moving through the station
G5 F5 E5 A5
I told you I told you I told you I was one of those
D5 A5
You loved me as a loser but now your worried that I just might win
D5 A5
You know the way to stop me but you don't have the discipline
D5 A5
How many nights I prayed for this: to let my work begin
G5 F5 E5 A5
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
D5 A5
I don't like your fashion business, mister
D5 A5
I don't like these drugs that keep you thin
D5 A5
I don't like what happened to your sister
G5 F5 E5 A5
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin (chorus)
D5 A5
And I thank you for those items that you sent me
D5 A5
The monkey end the plywood violin
D5 A5
I practiced every night and now I'm ready
G5 F5 E5 A5
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
D5 A5
Remember me, I used to live for music
D5 A5
Remember me, I brought your groceries in
D5 A5
It's Father's Day and everybody's wounded
G5 F5 E5 A5
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin

"Arms Of Love" (Robin Hitchcock) [B-Side to "Man on the Moon"]
I've tried to lay out the rythym as graphically as possible.
( D5 = down, ^ = up)
D5 D5 ^ ^ D5 ^ D5 D5 ^ ^ D5 ^ D5 D5 ^ ^ D5 D5 D5 ^ ^ D5 ^
G5 C5 G5 C5 G5
(intro, same as first sung line)
G5 C5 G5 C5 G5
Maybe tonight you're achin'
G5 F5 C5 C5
For someone you're dreamin' of
D5 D5 C5 C5
Tomorrow you'll be wakin Into the
D5 D5 * C5 C5
Arms, into the arms of Love
(*You could use either a D, D/G, or a G here, whatever suits you best.)
Maybe tonight you're cryin
Like a poor wounded dove
Tell me you'll soon be flying
Into the Arms, into the arms of love
Maybe tonight you're takin
You couldn't get enough
Honey you'll soon be wakin'
Into the Arms, into the arms of Love
[Interlude, use same three lines of chords that run through the sung
verse.]
Maybe the world is falling
It wasn't strong enough
Tell me you'll soon be crawling
Into the Arms, into the arms of Love
(repeat to end)

"FRETLESS"
He's got his work, and she comes easy
They each come around when the other is gone
Me, I think I got stuck somewhere in between
I wouldn't confide in the prodigal son,
The dye has been cast, the battle is won
The bullets were blanks, a double locked gun
I couldn't admit to a minute of fun.
And they come and they come and they come
I accept it with a gentle tongue
No words spoken, no ? kept
Take it, stomp twice, ring bell
Tether that ringing, freeze
Enough with the rifle and talk already
We all know what it means
Take this conversation to your great divide
I can only swallow what I ate,
And I don't hate him , and I don't hate her.
And they come and they come and they come
I accept it with a gentle tongue
No heart broken, no ? kept
Don't talk to me about being alone
Don't talk to me about being alone
Don't talk to me about being alone
Reach for each other before you leave
Reach peace, P - E5 - A5 - C5 - E5
Don't threaten me with a gentle tease,
Don't threaten me with angry
Please please please don't try to tell me what I am
And they come and they come and they come
I accept it with a gentle tongue
No words spoken, no ? except
Don't talk to me about being alone
Don't talk to me about being alone
Don't talk to me about being alone....
Ends on Em.

In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight.
G5 C5 G5 D5
In the village, the peaceful village, the people sleep tonight.
G5 C5 G5
Aweem away, aweem away, aweem away, aweem away, aweem away, aweem away,

aweem away, aweem away
