And if the Lord provides the music for the world around to sing,
My love will build a castle in the air.

This is my last chance, a chance to show the world that I am strong.
This is my last dance. I’m walking off the floor where I belong.

And if the Lord provides the music for the world around to sing,
My love will build a castle in the air.

This is my swan song. I fell in love with you , I love you well,
I love you well, I love you well.

I arise; try to see my face through my disguise.
And on the balcony I knew inside of me it will be done.

Somebody stop the music. Somebody stop the tune.
Somebody crown the clown with the red balloon. (repeat)

I arose; the truth will out the more it grows.
It’s not a mystery, no one was hiding it from me.

Somebody stop the music. Somebody stop the tune.
Somebody crown the clown with the red balloon. (repeat)

(Chorus)

Don’t love ya, baby don’t love ya
Don’t love ya, baby don’t love ya
Don’t love ya, baby don’t love ya
Don’t love ya, baby don’t love ya
Don’t love ya, baby don’t love ya, Yeah

(Outro)

Today I saw the sun, the sun

# “First Of May”
# (Barry, Maurice, and Robin Gibb)
#
#Intro:
#
# (piano, harp, and strings):
#
Verse 1:
(piano):
When I was small and Christmas [F#m/C#]trees were tall
We used to love while others used to play
(strings enter)
Don’t ask me why, but time has [F#m/C#]passed us by
Someone else moved in from far away
Now we are tall and Christmas trees are small
And you don’t ask the time of day
But you and I, our love will never die
Em G (1: /A) D (1: A (band enters))
But guess who’ll cry come First of May
Verse 2:
The apple tree that grew for you and me
I watched the apples falling one by one
And I recall the moment of them all
The day I kissed your cheek and you were gone
Now we are tall and Christmas trees are small
And you don’t ask the time of day
But you and I, our love will never die
But guess who’ll cry come First of May
Coda:
(piano, acoustic guitar, and strings):
When I was small and Christmas [F#m/C#]trees were tall

Do-do-do-do-do do-do-do do-do

(acapella):
Don’t ask me why but time has passed us by
Someone else moved in from far away (fade)

(Verse 1)
In the streets of New York City every man can feel the cold,
and I don’t want no pity, but I want my story told.
And the lights shine down on me, they shine on the little boy,
is this the way to make him pay being born in a world of joy?

But like me,he don’t know where he’ll go wrong,
he won’t cry so many tears
till he finds out why he don’t belong.
Like me, there’s no room for us out there,
you can lose your hope and pride,
when it comes to broken dreams you’ll get your share.

Sometimes a man breaks down,
and the good things he is looking for
are crushed into the ground.

(Chorus)
Get on up, look around, can’t you feel the wind of change?
Get on up, taste the air, can’t you see the wind of change?

(Verse 2)
Don’t you understand what I’m saying? We need a god down here,
a man to lead us children, take us from the valley of fear.
Make the lights shine down on us, show us the road to go,
help us survive, make us arrive, teach us what we need to know.

Like me, he don’t know where he’ll go wrong,
he won’t cry so many tears
till he finds out why he don’t belong.
Like me, there’s no room for us out there,
you can lose your hope and pride,
when it comes to broken dreams you’ll get your share.

Sometimes a man breaks down,
and the good things he is looking for
are crushed into the ground.

(Chorus 2)
Get on up, look around, can’t you feel the wind of change?
Get on up, taste the air, can’t you see the wind of change?

Get on up, look around, can’t you feel the wind of change?
Get on up, taste the air, can’t you see the wind of change?

Get on up, look around, can’t you feel the wind of change?
Get on up, taste the air, can’t you see the wind of change?

1. If my life gets like a jigsaw
With the pieces out of place
Come on over
Put a smile back on my face

2. And if all my bad days came at once
You would know just what to do
Come on over
Baby, you would see me through.

Chorus: And if you think I need you
Come on o- ver
Bring your love a- round
You can dry away my tears

And if you think I need you
Come on o- ver lay your body down
You know I will be here
So bring your love a- round

Bridge: When I cannot see in front of me
And I know my darkest day
Come on over you can take it all a- way.

If you think if you think I need you come on over.

Tone ———

1. Oh, I, baby what a fool I am
First a boy and then a man, am I
And you, you’re the heart of it all
You’re the things I say and do
Am I wastin’ my time hangin’ around?
You would be gone

Bridge: But I can’t help it, every moment that I think about you
Every day and every night with- out you, I can’t survive

Chorus: Love, take away the lonely days gone by
Make it every day for you and I
Givin’ me a chance to go on believ- in’
Girl, you gotta go on believ- in’
Boy, you gotta go on be- lievin’

Key change to ——–

2. And you, baby, you’re the breath I take
Coming for a heart in love, am I
And you, you’re the heart of it all
You’re the things I say and do
Am I wastin’ my time hangin’ a- round?
You would be gone.

Bridge: But I can’t help it, every moment that I think about you
Every day and every night with- out you, I can’t survive

Chorus: Love, take away the lonely days gone by
Make it every day for you and I
Givin’ me a chance to go on believ- in’
Boy, you gotta go on be- lievin’.

Make it every day for you and I, givin’ me a chance to help it.

Help it. Every moment that I think about you
Every day and every night with- out you
I can’t survive.

Fairy stories in the penny arcade.
You bought my love and I paid.
I’m not trying to make history.
You could have been good to me.

Spent my life a-makin’ my love to you.
I’ve got no reason to try.
Got no reason left for makin’ you blue.
You’ve got a reason to cry.

Fairy stories in the penny arcade…

Fairy stories in the penny arcade.
You bought my love and I paid.
I’m not trying to make history.
You could have been good to me.

# “To Love Somebody”
# (Barry Gibb / Robin Gibb)
#
#
#Intro:
#
# (acoustic guitar w/bass and strings):
#
/ / / / / / . .
[A chords arpeggiated on harp]
/ . . . / . . .
Verse 1:
There’s a light
A certain kind of light
That never shone on me
I want my life to be
To live with you
To live with you
There’s a way
Everybody says
To do each and every little thing
But what does it bring
If I ain’t got you
Ain’t got you … baby

Chorus:
You don’t know what it’s like
Baby, you don’t know what it’s like
To love somebody
To love somebody
The way I love you

[repeat intro]
Verse 2:
Mmm, in my brain
I see your face again
I know my frame of mind
You ain’t got to be so blind
And I’m blind, so so so very blind
I’m a man, can’t you see what I am
I live and I breathe for you
But what good does it do
If I ain’t got you
Ain’t got… baby
[repeat chorus]
I… love you
[repeat chorus]
No-no-no-no-no-no
[repeat chorus; fade]

How did you find there was somebody
More than you want me I never understood
Maybe I have never had you
I have been lonely for you lately
I can’t wait another day
And when you let me get you close to me
You run and leave me

Paying the price of love
The start of my end over you
When you’re doin' it for someone
Who’ll never be free
Now is all there will ever be

No more to live without you
All the nights I dream about you

Deep in the dark of the night
I’m a man on a mission but safer with you home
Never would I make you sorry
You are the only drug I crave
And I’ve been saving everyday
I held it all inside, I pray
You don’t forget you got me

Paying the price of love
My heart in my hands over you
But the battle is just not fair
You’ll never be free
That emotion is always replaying

You know the strongest heart
Is broken when it falls
You turn and walk away
And let it die
I got this picture in my head
Of you in someone else’s bed
And I am torn apart
I’m torn apart inside

I’ll build my world around you
I was nothing when I found you
Paying the price of love

Paying the price of love
The start of my end over you
When you’re doing it for someone
Who’ll never be free
Now is all there will ever be

Paying the price of love
My heart in my hands over you
But the battle is just not fair
You’ll never be free
That emotion is always replaying

# “Claustrophobia”
# (Barry Gibb)
#
#Intro:
#
Verse 1:
I’d like to be the one to see
Your loving mine at the start
But I get claustrophobia
Em A D (1, 3: A 2, 4: Am)
‘Cause there’s too many boys in your heart (5: to coda)
Verse 2:
I’d like to know how far you’d go
To use those lips of wine
But I get claustrophobia
‘Cause there’s too many boys on your mind
Bridge:
One, two, three and now there’s me
You practice to deceive
You lead me on another one
I’ve got no room to breathe
Verse 3:
So bye, bye, you who can’t be true
I’m leaving you behind
‘Cause I get claustrophobia
‘Cause there’s too many boys on your mind
Instrumental break:
(12-seting and harmonica over first two lines of verse)
I get claustrophobia
‘Cause there’s too many boys on your mind
(repeat chorus)
(repeat verse 3)
Coda:
(…on your mind)
Too many boys on your mind
Too many boys on your mind
