Piano Intro: E A E A

The train pulled into paris like a rocket to the moon
The station’s like a circus every face is a cartoon
Everybody’s stoned on pride and drunk on cheap champagne
Tonight this joie de vivre sure don’t live up to its name
And now all that i can say

Is i’d give this world to you
Every rock and every stone every masterpiece in rome
And if you asked me to
I’d steal the mona lisa, tear it up in little pieces
And lay them at your feet
For all the world to see
But tonight i can’t give you paris

Piano: E A E A

Aristocrats are everywhere and the air’s as thick as thieves
She’d like nothing better than to steal the breath from me
The tower’s lights ain’t shinin' as it hangs its head in shame
At the sight of american blood on the streets of st. germain
Washin’ up into the Seine

And i’d give this world to you
Every rock and every stone every masterpiece in rome
And if you asked me to
I’d steal the mona lisa, tear it up in little pieces
And lay them at your feet
For all the world to see
But tonight i can’t give you paris

Piano: E A E A D A

And i’d give this world to you
I’d steal the crown and kingdom from the queen of england
And if you asked me to
I’d take this city in my hands, break it down in grains of sand
And lay them at your feet
For all the world to see
But tonight i can’t give you paris

Piano: E A E A, end on E

It’s late enough all you kids should be home
The policeman says as he takes your beer for his own
You remember wondering what his wife
Thought about his occupation

He knows that you were just chasing a dream
To the town line and then back and over again
So he winks at you girls
And tells you all “I’ll see you later”

I was stealing kisses from a boy
Now I’m begging affection from a man
In my house dress don’t you know who I am
don’t you know who I am
I’m standing in your kitchen

It’s late enough your husband’s dinner is cold
So you wrap it up and leave it for him on the stove
It’s probably the traffic again
Or another important meeting

And you haven’t talked to an adult all day
‘cept your neighbor who drives you crazy
When he finally gets in he’s sure not in the mood for talking

I was stealing kisses from a boy
Now I’m begging affection from a man
In my house dress don’t you know who I am
don’t you know who I am
I’m standing in your kitchen
Bridge:
And hours become days and days become years
And you could burn down this town
If they made matches from fear
Buy you’re no worse off than anybody else
Hey don't you even know, don’t you even know yourself

So you’re standing outside your high school door
The one you walked out of twenty years before
And you whisper to all of the girls, run, run, run

I was stealing kisses from a boy
Now I’m begging affection from a man
In my house dress don’t you know who I am
don’t you know who I am
Take a look at who I am, take a look at who I am
I’m standing in your kitchen

End on G

Chorus
Heyyyyy, thats the way we do it
New friends and blue skies that never end.
Heyyyyy, thats the way we like it
Good times, sunshine and summertime.
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/f/faith_hill/sunshine_and_summertime_crd.html )
Youll see straw sombreros and t-top cameros
Stereos blasting in the parking lot.
Youll see rock hard bodies and bikini hotties
and everybodys got it goin on, and showing what they got.

Chorus
Heyyyyy, thats the way we do it
New friends and blue skies that never end.
Heyyyyy, thats the way we like it
Good times, sunshine and summertime.

I said Hey everybody, cant you feel the rhythm?
Now, hey everybody, dont you want to party?
Hey everybody, cant you feel the rhythm now?
Hey everybody, dont you want to party?

I AIN?T GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE (4:00)
(KEVIN BRANDT / BOBBY TERRY)
Recorded on March 5, 2004

YOU?VE WORN THE SOLES OFF BOTH YOUR SHOES
WALKIN? ON ME LIKE YA DO
THIS AIN?T WHAT FOREVER?S FOR
AND I AIN?T GONNA TAKE IT
I AIN’T GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE

I?VE CRIED AND BEGGED AND CURSED AND PRAYED
BUT NOTHING?S WORKED, NOTHING?S CHANGED
NO WAY I WIN WHEN YOU KEEP SCORE
AND I AIN?T GONNA TAKE IT
I AIN?T GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE

CHORUS:
I?M GONNA CRAWL OUT FROM THIS STONE THAT I?VE BEEN UNDER
TO SEE THE LIGHT AND BREATHE THE AIR
AND YOU?LL HAVE A MILLION REASONS WHY I SHOULDN?T LEAVE YOU
BUT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A LONG TIME I DON?T CARE

I GUESS ON ONE HAND YOU SHOULD LAUGH
?CAUSE I?VE SAID THE SAME THINGS IN THE PAST
BUT THIS TIME ONE HAND?S ON THE DOOR
AND I AIN?T GONNA TAKE IT
I AIN?T GONNA TAKE IT, ANYMORE

(REPEAT CHORUS)

NOW I CAN?T HELP BUT THINK OF YOU
LOOKIN? BACK IN MY REAR VIEW
BUT I?VE BEEN DOWN THAT ROAD BEFORE
AND I AIN?T GONNA TAKE IT
I AIN?T GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE
I AIN?T GONNA TAKE IT
I AIN?T GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE
