B

How many of you people out there,

Bm

Been hurt in some kind of love affair?

A

And how many times did you swear

B

That you'd never love again?

How many lonely, sleepless nights?

Bm

How many lies, how many fights?

A

And why would you want to put yourself

B

through all of that again?

B

Love is pain I hear you say

Bm

Love is a cruel and bitter way of

A B

Paying you back for all the faith you ever had in your brain

How could it be that what you need the most

Bm

Can leave you feeling just like a ghost?

A B

You never want to feel so sad and lost again.

B

One day you could be looking

A

Through an old book in rainy weather

B

You see a picture of her smiling at you

A

When you were still together

B

You could be walking down the street

A

And who should you chance to meet?

B

But that same old smile you've been thinking of all day?

B

Why don't we turn the clock to zero honey?

Bm

I'll sell the stock we'll spend all the money

A B

We're starting up a brand new day

Turn the clock all the way back

Bm

I wonder if she'll take me back

A

I'm thinking in a brand new way

B

Turn the clock to zero sister

Bm

You'll never know how much I missed her

A B

Starting up a brand new day

Turn the clock to zero boss

Bm

The rivers wide we'll swim across

A B

We're starting up a brand new day

B

It could happen to you

Bm

Just like it happened to me

A

There is simply no immunity

There's no guarantee

B Bm

I say love is such a force if you find yourself in it

A

You need some time for reflection

You say, baby wait a minute, wait a minute

Wait a minute, wait a minute

Wait a minute, wait a minute

B

Turn the clock to zero honey

Bm

I'll sell the stock we'll spend all the money

A B

We're starting up a brand new day

Turn the clock to zero Mac

Bm

I'm begging her to take me back

A B

I'm thinking in a brand new way

B

Turn the clock to zero boss

Bm

The rivers wide we'll swim across

A B

Starting up a brand new day

Turn the clock to zero buddy

Bm

Don't wanna be no fuddy duddy

A B

We're Starting up a brand new day

B

I'm the rhythm in your tune

Bm

I'm the sun and you're the moon

A

I'm the bat and you're the cave

B

You're the beach and I'm the wave

I'm the plough and you're the land

Bm

You're the glove and I'm the hand

A

I'm the train and you're the station

B

I'm the flagpole to your nation

B/Bm/A/ (2x)

B

I'm the present to your future

Bm

You're the wound and I'm the suture

A

You're the magnet to my pole

B

I'm the devil in your soul

You're the pupil I'm the teacher

Bm

You're the church and I'm the preacher

A

You're the flower I'm the rain

B

You're the tunnel I'm the train

Bm

Stand up, all you lovers in the world

A B

Stand up and be counted, every boy and every girl

Bm

Stand up, all you lovers in the world

A B

We're starting up a brand new day

B

You're the crop to my rotation

Bm

You're the sum of my equation

A

I'm the answer to your question

B

If you follow my suggestion

We could turn this ship around

Bm

And go up instead of down

A

You're the pan and I'm the handle

B

You're the flame and I'm the candle

Bm

Stand up, all you lovers in the world

A B

Stand up and be counted, every boy and every girl

Bm

Stand up, all you lovers in the world

A B

Starting up a brand new day...

Mad About You

 

Transcribed by Fernando Duran Soto

Intro: Am C F Em7 Am C F Em7

Am C

A stone's throw from Jerusalem

F Em7

I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight

Am C

And though a million stars were shining

F Em7

My heart was lost on a distant planet

Am C

That whirls around the April moon

F Em7

Whirling in an arc of sadness

Am C Dm Em7

I'm lost without you, I'm lost without you

F Dm D7 E7

With all my kingdoms turn to sand and fall into the sea

Am G F E7 Am

I'm mad about you, I'm mad about you.

Am C

From the dark secluded valleys

F Em7

I heard the ancient songs of sadness

Am C

But every step I thought of you

F Em7

Every footstep only you

Am C

Every star a grain of sand

F Em7

The leavings of a dried up ocean

Am C

Tell me, how much longer,

F Em7

How much longer?

Am C

They say a city in the desert lies

F Em7

The vanity of an ancient king

Am C

The city lies in broken pieces

F Em7

Where the wind howls and the vultures sing

Am C

These are the works of man

F Em7

This is the sum of our ambition

Am C

It would make a prison of my life

Dm Em7

If you became another's wife

F Dm

With every prison blown to dust

D7 E7

My enemies walk free

Am G Am E7 Am

I'm mad about you, I'm mad about you.

C

And I have never in my life

E7 Am

Felt more alone than I do now

C Fmaj7

Although I claim dominions over all I see

C

It means nothing to me

Dm7 D7

There are no victories In all our histories

Em

Without love.

Am C

A stone's throw from Jerusalem

F Em7

I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight

Am C

And though a million stars were shining

F Em7

My heart was lost on a distant planet

Am C

That whirls around the April moon

F Em7

Whirling in an arc of sadness

Am C Dm Em7

I'm lost without you, I'm lost without you.

Am C F Em7 Am C F E Am C F Em7 Am C Dm

Em7 F Dm D7 E

And though you hold the keys to ruin of everything I see

F Dm D7 E

With every prison blown to dust my enemies walk free

F Dm D7 E

Though all my kingdoms turn to sand and fall into the sea

Am G Am E7 Am

I'm mad about you, I'm mad about you.
