Roger McGuinn    Without You     written by Roger McGuinn/Jacques Levy

C                         Dm  F                       C
There was no one else but you from the moment that we met
                           Dm   F                       C
Foolish dreams were coming true it's a time I can't forget
                  Dm    F                       C
Be my wife for evermore be my girl and comfort me
                      Dm   F                        C
Put the lock upon the door smile and throw away the key
 C   G           F              C
Without you without you I'm without you
C                         Dm    F                        C
With the movement of your head you could tell me what was wrong
                        Dm   F                       C
Was it something that I said was my love for you too strong
                       Dm  F                       C
If I knew this thing I did that was always in your way
                       Dm      F                        C
I could make you do my bidding I could make you want to stay
                       Dm      F                  C
Now I'm here without a friend cup of coffee in my hand
                          Dm  F                       C
Walk the floor without an end staring at your wedding band
    G            F              C
Without you without you I'm without you

Roger McGuinn    America For Me    Henry Van Dyke/Roger McGuinn

A    Bm              E         A          C#m    F#m
It's fine to see the old world and travel up and down
D                E                     A
Among the famous palaces and cities of renown
Bm                  E       A               C#m    F#m
To admire crumbling castles and the statues of the kings
D                    E                        A
But now I think I've had enough of antiquated things
        Bm         E     A       C#m F#m
So it's home  home again America for me
D                   E                               A
My heart is turning home again it's where I want to be
       Bm                E       A          C#m      F#m
In the land of youth and freedom beyond the ocean    wide
D                        E                             A
Where the air is full of sunlight and the flag full of stars
   Bm          E          A             C#m    F#m
Oh London is a man's town there's power in the air
D              E                                A
And Paris is a woman's town with flowers in her hair
         Bm                E           A        C#m   F#m
And it's sweet to dream in Venice it's great to study Rome
D                    E                            A
But when it comes to living there's no place like home
        Bm         E     A       C#m   F#m

So it's home  home again America for   me
D                   E                               A
My heart is turning home again it's where I want to be
       Bm                E          A       C#m   F#m
In the land of youth and freedom beyond the ocean wide
D                        E                             A
Where the air is full of sunlight and the flag full of stars
Bm              E             A         C#m      F#m
I know Europe's wonderful yet something seems to lack
D                    E                               A
The past is too much with her and the people looking back
        Bm           E             A        C#m    F#m
 Oh the glory of the present is to make the future free
D                    E                              A
We love our land for what she is and what she is to be
        Bm         E     A       C#m  F#m
So it's home  home again America for   me
D                   E                               A
My heart is turning home again it's where I want to be
       Bm                E          A       C#m    F#m
In the land of youth and freedom beyond the oceans green
D                        E                             A
Where the air is full of sunlight and the flag full of stars

                  Bm       F#       B7      E      A      D
Have you seen her face her eyes reflect the colors in the sky
                Bm          F#      B7
A warm familiar place to be swept into
     E    A           D            G      A
When ever she's close by  makes me wonder why

Run by     don't turn back
D     Em             G           A
Can't hide from that look in her eyes
                    Bm      F#         B7        E   A       D
Must be the way she walks a style made up to capture all she needs
                       Bm
No time spent on whose fault
        F#        B7         E         A      D        G       A
If your luck runs right  she might see you tonight anything in sight
D      Em  G          Bm
Run by     don't turn back
D     Em             G           A
Can't hide from that look in her eyes
                                Bm            F#        B7
You'll find your  locked in her spell all the sight and sounds
     E      A       D
Your senses will be found
                    Bm            F#       B7      E       A     D
That only time will tell how much love can mean to wait so patiently
G         A
Wait  and see
D   Em    G           Bm
Run by     don't turn back
D     Em             G           A
Can't hide from that look in her eyes

Roger McGuinn    Living Legend           written by Roger McGuinn

G                             C
Everybody called him a living legend
D                                         G
But just being a legend didn't make him a living
                                       C
And every day on the job his mind went spinning
D                                                  G
Back to twenty years ago and all the shows he was giving
G                         Am
He's a living legend he's got nowhere to go
C                    D                  C          D
What he'd give to be on the road and to do another show
       G                 Am
He's a living legend  oh how he loved that life
C                   D               C           D       G
Now he works in the factory and  he just drinks beer at night
G                                        C
Some of the younger stars grew up on his music
         D                                       G
And they liked his style so much they decided to use it
                                                   C
When he heard his songs on the radio he started to lose it
    D                                       G
But when the big money came in he couldn't refuse it
G                         Am
He's a living legend he's got nowhere to go
C                    D                  C           D
What he'd give to be on the road and to do another show
       G                 Am
He's a living legend  oh how he loved that life
C                   D               C           D       G
Now he works in the factory and  he just drinks beer at night
G                                                C
One day he brought his old guitar to the factory picnic
    D                              G
And B.J. the country DJ  heard him play it
G                                                    C
And everybody was still amazed at how well he could still pick
         D                                                   G
And they booked him in the Golden Eagle before you could say it
       G                  Am
He's a living legend he's got somewhere to go
C                  D                  C           D
He's so glad to be on the road and to do another show
G                       Am
He's a living legend oh how he loves his life
C                    D             C      D     G
And now he plays his music for the people every night
Am                   D             C      D     G
And now he plays his music for the people every night

Byrds       Thoughts And Words          written by  Chris Hillman

 Bm                D
One day you came into my mind
    E          G                   F#  F#sus
And everything looked as though it was all mine
Bm           D            E               G          F# F#sus
Lovliness to gaze upon to feel your magic pulling me away
   C#                        B
I thought I was on top of it all
C#                    B
Everyone else was so small
      F#m
And I knew what you wanted to do  I knew what you wanted to do
Bm             D              E
Often think of times when all your thoughts and words
     G                  F#
Came close to making me lose my mind
Bm            D            E              G                F#
Only now recalling all the time envolving minutes that we spent alone
   C#                        B
I thought I was on top of it all
C#                   B
Everyone else was so small
           F#m
And I knew what you wanted to do  I knew what you wanted to do

F#m          B                   E                  E7
Just about a mile from my home a million miles from everyone
A                 B           E          D          C#7
My eyes could see older as my ears could hear your song
F#m      B          F#m              B
Oh to be wild again get back to your lazy waters
F#m             B       E
Never needed anyone but you
E                           F#m           B
Oh little boys are strange  no one knows they have magic
F#m            B               E              E7
I kept it in my pocket  concealed from everyone
A                         B       E      D       C#7
But I climbed the highest tree to sing a bird my song
F#m      B          F#m              B
Oh to be wise again get back to your lazy waters
F#m             B       E
Never needed anyone but you
E                    F#m               B    F#m                    B
We moved to the city I said I wouldn't mind thought you'd stay inside
me
     E              E7
It's easy when your young
A         B          E  D            C#7
But as we rode away  I knew you were gone
F#m      B          F#m               B
Oh to be wise again get back to your lazy waters
F#m              B      E
Never needed anyone but you

The Byrds      Kathleen's Song       written by  McGuinn/Levy

D            G            D         Em   D
When I awake you will be gone shady tomorrow
   G      D  G              A
I want to go where will you be
G            D              Em          A
So I'll stay home letting my hair grow long
G          D              A
And I will be waiting for you
D                G         D               Em D
While fire burns summer is gone winter is  sorrow
    G          D    G          A
And time don't mean nothing to me
G             D               Em     A
When only the hours listen to hear my songs
    G      D             Em   A
And I will be walking in dew
D             G           A
And I will be waiting for you
E           A    E        A        D
Some people say love goes away not mine
D              G        D            Em  D
A rose is left for your cheek I will borrow
    G      D     G          A
And find a place for you to see
G         D                  Em       A
A sash of blue tells me your love is strong
G           D               Em   A
Each day my life  starting anew
D             G            A      D
And I will be waiting for you

The Byrds     Just A Season      written by Roger McGuinn/Jacques Levy

   C#m              G#m                A           B7  E
If all my days were hills to climb and circles without reason
   C#m            G#m             A        B7     E
If all I was just passing time my life was just a season
E                    F#m               A                E
Dares and dreams and silly schemes and fillies running freely
                      C#m              A                   B7
I was young and there was no song that didn't sound appealing
    A                  B7           E           F#m
I'd have my fun with a shy girl and maybe hop a train
        A                 B7              E
And I'd look  back at her standing in the rain
E                F#m                 A             E

Dirty hands and root beer stands and money like a river
                    C#m             A                     B7
Making deals to see how it feels to get more than you're giving
     A                 B7              E                 F#m
I'd have my fun with a gamblin man and bluff him with my face
         A                B7         E
And it's drinks for everybody in the place
   C#m              G#m                A            B7     E
If all my days were hills to climb and circles without reason
   C#m            G#m             A        B7     E
If all I was just passing time my life was just a season
E                   F#m                 A            E
Shouting crowds and mummers shrouds and people going crazy
                     C#m               A               B7
Always said what was in their heads it surely was amazing
   A                B7           E            F#m
I had my fun in the bull ring and never got a scar
    A            B7           E
It really wasn't hard to be a star
   C#m              G#m               A            B7  E
If all my days were hills to climb and circles without reason
   C#m           G#m              A        B7     E
If all I was just passing time my life was just a season

Dm                   C           Dm   C        Dm
When first I come to Liverpool I went upon the street
                                                    C           A
Had  money  at  last  I spent it fast got drunk as  drunk could be
    Dm                                             C      A
And when my money was all gone  it was then that I wanted more
      Dm                   C                   Dm    C        Dm
But a man must be blind to make up his mind to go to sea once more

Dm C  Dm C Dm

Dm                     C           Dm       C      Dm
I spent the night with Angeline to drunk to roll in bed

Me watch it was new and my money was too
                     C         A
In the morning with them she fled
    Dm                                   C                A
And as I roamed the streets of  Bath the whores all would roar
      Dm                 C
There goes Jarr Tarr the poor sailor
        Dm    C        Dm        Dm  C   Dm  C  Dm
He must go to sea once more
Dm           C                Dm   C          Dm
As I walking down the steet I ran into Robert Brown
                                                C         A
I  asked him for to take me in and he looked at me with a frown
   Dm                                              C      A
He said last night ya was paid off,  with me ya jobless score
         Dm                         C
But I'll take your advance and I'll give you the chance 	
         Dm          C        Dm    Dm C Dm C  Dm
And I'll send you to sea once more
Dm                           C            Dm            C     Dm
They shipped me aboard of  a whaling ship bound for the Artic Sea

Where the cold winds  blow thru the frost and the snow
         C        A
And Jamaica  rum runs free
    Dm                                         C       A
A'las I had no luck with my gear for I left all my money ashore
       Dm                       C            Dm            C      Dm
It was then that I wished that  I was  there safe with the girl's
ashore

Dm C Dm C Dm

Dm                C                 Dm     C     Dm
Come all ye boat seafaring lads who listen to my song
                                                  C  A
And when you come off them long trip with actions not go wrong
Dm                                                      C       A
Take my advice  drink no strong drink don't go sleeping with no whores
        Dm                     C                Dm       C      Dm
But get married lads and have all night in and go to to sea no more
