I've been working on these chords for quite some time because I couldn't find a lot of 
chords for the songs on the album. So well, here the whole album is! I also submitted the 
chords individually.

I didn't made all the tabs in this tabs. I didn't made the tab for the following songs:
- Permanent
- Charlie
- Maybe it's time
- California
- Like A Cloak

Verse 1:
D#maj7/A#                          A#
I think i'm going to work construction
             F              Gm
Just to make something of myself
        D#maj7/A#                  A#              F
I can't live off these childhood trophies on my shelf
  D#maj7/A#              A#
I want to get my hands dirty
                 F             Gm
I want to feel a burning in my legs
       D#maj7/A#           A#              F
I want more than the receipt for what i paid

Chorus:
        Gm        F
Because everybody loves something new
               D#maj7/A#             A#
'cause you can open it and plug it in
       Gm                F
And it feels like a good night's sleep
                       D#maj7/A#       A#
Like the girl you like paid you a compliment
                  F          Gm                F               D#maj7/A#

A#         F           Gm          F       D#maj7/A#     A#
I'm still looking for something a little more permanent

Verse 2:
D#maj7/A#       A#
I am not a poet
            F                 Gm
Show me the easy way and i'll do it
             D#maj7/A#                 A#              F
No one could ever say that i've been trying way too hard
D#maj7/A#                A#
Everything that i have ever owned
    F         Gm  F
Got dusty and old
     D#maj7/A#              A#                 F
So i threw it out just to make myself some room

Chorus:
         Gm          F
I'm like everybody i love something new
               D#maj7/A#             A#
'cause you can open it and plug it in
       Gm                F
And it feels like a good night's sleep
                       D#maj7/A#       A#
Like the girl you like paid you a compliment
                  F          Gm                F               D#maj7/A#
They can keep the change and they can keep 'em coming they can talk to
           F
who's listening
A#         F           Gm             F    D#maj7/A#   A#
I'm still looking for something that I can die with

Verse 3:
D#maj7/A#               A#
If my luck is running out
             F                 Gm
Please don't let it be so with love
F           D#maj7/A#               A#             F
It's been a long year but i'm not ready to give up
D#maj7/A#           A#
Even if I lay ten million bricks
         F                            Gm
And they break through the summer haze
F            D#maj7/A#         A#                       F
Someone will come around and bulldoze them down some day Ohhhhh

Chorus:
        Gm        F
Because everybody loves something new
        D#maj7/A#          A#
You get rid of what came before
       Gm                F
And it feels like a long hot shower
                     D#maj7/A#                 A#
Like getting in your bed when the sheets are warm
                 F                Gm               F          D#maj7/A#
So they can keep construction and they can keep em coming and I wont be
   F
listening
      A# F     Gm          F          D#maj7/A#  F
Cause I found something a little more permanent
        A# F     Gm           F    D#maj7/A#  A#

LAREDO

Intro:
Dm

Dm                        F          A
We lost the train through old Laredo yesterday

You turned your back on the tracks while I held on to those words you said

Bb                 F            C           A             Dm
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go whichever way

Dm                             F                 A
How dare you run away from all that promise it's apropos
Dm                              F              A
Of all the things that we have left behind us, all we'll ever know

Bb                 F            C           A             Dm
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go whichever way

Dm                            F                A
Your kisses haven't felt like this is honest, your breath is held at bay
Dm                F                    A
wild as the dream I'll never catch and you would sooner chase

Bb                 F            C           A             Dm
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go whichever way
Bb                 F            C           A             Dm
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go whichever way

F                     Bb
I don't know if it's over
C                Dm                         Bb
Right now, this is all that I can say

Bb                 F            C           A             Dm
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go whichever way

Dm                  F           A
I'll write the same old song of sorrow the same way
Dm                                   F                           A
You know the one where this old town can't show them shelter and I can't get away

Bb                 F            C           A             Dm
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go whichever way

Dm                                        F            A
I see that shallow sheltered promise that I proposed
Dm                                F                             A
Falling gently passed a trembling crescent right off your nose

Bb                 F            C           A             Dm
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go whichever way
Bb                 F            C           A             Dm
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go whichever way

F                     Bb
I don't know if it's over
C                Dm                         Bb
Right now, this is all that I can say

Bb                 F            C           F
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
Bb                 F            C           A             Dm
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go whichever way

Dm                                        F          A
We lost the train through old Laredo yesterday
Dm                                 F                                  A
You turned your back on the tracks while I held on to those words you said

Bb                 F            C           F
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
Bb                 F            C           F
Just let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
Bb                 F            C           A             Dm

It hasn't rained hard for the better part of seven months

Everyones listenin'
Gm                        F
All I see ahead of me are glistenin' lights
Eb                   Bb
The city stays up at night
Gm                    F
Drumming along like a dissonant song
Eb            Bb
By an amateur symphony
Gm                           F
How come I can only tell you I love you
Eb                                    F
When you're sleeping in the passenger seat

Bb                               Gm
And all the fast cars with their broken head lights
Eb                        F
Run the red lights in the canyon
Bb                  Gm
And I can taste it, the rain is coming
Eb                    F
To clear the air over Los Angeles

Gm                    F
Maybe it'll bring the hillside down
Eb                    Bb
Maybe it'll flood the streets
Gm                    F
Maybe when I tell you that I want you forever
Eb               Bb
Im gonna make a fool of me

Gm                                              F
But I've got the windows down, the heater on my feet
Eb                Bb
And the skies are opening
Gm                           F
It's gonna come pourin down, it's gonna come pourin out
Eb           F
Im gonna say everything

Bb                               Gm
And all the fast cars with their broken head lights
Eb                        F
Run the red lights in the canyon
Bb                  Gm
And I can taste it, the rain is coming
Eb                    F
To clear the air over Los Angeles

Eb
The road is winding
Bb
And it's barely lit
Gm                                   Cm
You never know how far you're really gonna get
Eb
But when you live here
Bb                            F
You just learn to get used to it

Bb                               Gm
And all the fast cars with their broken head lights
Eb                        F
Run the red lights in the canyon
Bb                  Gm
And I can taste it, the rain is coming
Eb                    F
To clear the air over Los Angeles

MAYBE IT'S TIME

Intro
Bb   F  x4

Bb                  F
Did someone hurt you many years ago?
Bb                                F
Did someone desert you when you needed them the most?
Bb                           F
And the pain stayed with you everywhere you'd go,
Bb                                 F                  Dm
And it's been so long now but you just can't seem to let it go,

Maybe it's time, maybe it's time,
Bb          F       Dm                 C         F
Maybe it's time to tell it you don't need it anymore.


Bb                   F
Did you lose someone that you loved?
Bb                                F
Did they move far off or do you picture them above?
Bb                                         F
There's an emptiness inside you and it's worse when you're alone,
Bb                                       F           Dm
And it feels so heavy now like you're carrying the weight of a stone,
Bb           F  Bb           F
Maybe it's time, maybe it's time,
Bb           F      Dm                 C         F
Maybe it's time to tell it you won't carry it anymore.


Dm                 F    Dm                    F
We ain't got a long time and there's a lot to do
Dm                    F        Dm          C
But first you gotta decide to leave some things behind
Bb           F  Bb            F
Maybe it's time, maybe it's time,
Bb           F      Dm          C      F
Maybe it's time to leave your chains behind


Bb                            F
Did you ever love someone so much that you can't explain?
Bb                                              F
When you're with them it's like thunder keeps rolling through your brain.
Bb                                    F
Maybe you've had someone before, but this one is not the same.
Bb
You can feel it in the depths of your soul,
          F                    Dm
but you still can't bring yourself to say it.
Bb           F  Bb            F
Maybe it's time, maybe it's time,
Bb            F            Dm                 C7            F     Bb   F
Maybe it's time for me to tell you I can be without you anymore.

TROUBLE IN THESE PARTS

The guitars in the song are tuned a halfstep down, wich makes it slightly easier
to play the C/Eb. I can manage to play the song in a standard tuning, so I think
you can do that aswell ;)

Intro:
| C C/E | C C/Eb | C C/E | C C/Eb |

C       C/E     C     C/G

C              C/E             C     C/G
In these parts that I've found on my own
C        C/E      C      C/G
A solemn and safe little home
C          C/G  C    C/G        Bm
Slow dance to a lone romance
Am
Out on the road
F
My mind's always gone there
C                C/Eb          C
There's trouble in these parts here

Em                  F           C         C/Eb
You'll learn how to fit & right in you'll slip
Em           F
I'll wait up for you
C     C/E      C    C/Eb
Black turns to blue

| C C/E | C C/Eb | C C/E | C C/G|(play A couple of times. And play an awesome

                                  (Mwahaha I bet you can't)

C       C/E     C     C/G
Beauty, i know, lurks here
C      C/E               C   C/G
Right 'round the corner, i fear
C     C/G       C      C/G   Bm
Dear, you can't be serious
Am
Mercy, I hear
F
My mind's always gone there
C       C/Eb                        C
There's trouble here in these parts here

Em                  F           C         C/Eb
You'll learn how to fit & right in you'll slip
Em           F
I'll wait up for you
C     C/E      C    C/Eb
Black turns to blue
Em      F
Between all the lines
C        C/Eb
All four of my sides
Em       F     C   C/E
To cover me in time

C                                F
"Don't you let the lessons stop, time ain't just hands on a clock"
C                              G
That's what I'm gonna tell Pop when I leave
C                            F
A vision on the lonely road, it's something that i gotta know:
C                   G             C
If i can drive this car all on my own

C                                  F
I guess i'll leave my girl behind, I should have done that long ago
C                                  G
Sometime I'm sure the pain will go away
C                         F
It wasn't working anyhow, the burners on the stove burnt out
C                G             C
A shame I didn't figure it out before

Am            C                  F         C
Girls, gather round and let that long hair down
Am         F                G
Sing along with me before I go
Am            C         F                    C
Let us have a drink and by god, don't let us think about the
F                          G     C
Things that we ain't never gonna know

C                             F
I met a man in San Francisco, he told me he did the same thing
C                G
Fifty years ago, he left his girl behind
C                                     F
He sits there in the park one hand is strumming his guitar
C                        G        C
Songs he found inside a bottle of wine
C                                  F
I saw the same things on his face, the ones that made me race away from
C                          G
everything i'd ever really known
C                         F
the scare to take responsibility from here -and put her there-
C                          G            C
Where everyone can see the seeds you've sown

Am            C                  F         C
Girls, gather round and let that long hair down
Am         F                G
Sing along with me before I go
Am            C         F                    C
Let us have a drink and by god, don't let us think about the

F                          G     C
Things that we ain't never gonna know

C
You know my line Joe?

C                                    F
If you think about the Creature that you might have thought would teach you
C                                                 G
That our hearts are just the thing right from the start
C                                  F
It would keep us from the worries, safe from sound and safe from fury,
C                                G       C
Safe at home besides the ones we know we loved
C                             F
If you told me from the start that I could never be apart from her,
C                                        G
I'd tell you, "go to hell, get out of my way"
C                                          F
But i've come back with my tail between my legs I didn't know the way
C                G              C
A man can't be a man all on his own

Am            C                  F         C
Girls, gather round and let that long hair down
Am         F                G
Sing along with me before I go
Am            C         F                    C
Let us have a drink and by god, don't let us think about the
F                          G     C
Things that we ain't never gonna know

Am               C            F        C
The sun is going down on this lonesome town
Am                 F          G
But I got you here to keep my company
Am               C       F                     C
You ever had the feeling that we're living for a reason?
F                 G                  C
For that reason I won't ever let you go
Am               C       F                     C
You ever had the feeling that we're living for a reason?

Bm
Maybe we'll come out of this
                                A
Maybe we'll come out of this unscathed
Bm                                A          E
Just like the story said ever after we should be okay,    okay

Nothing lasts forever darling

Everything is as it must be
       E
It must be


Bm
And I know that you don't know
       A          E
Where we go, when we go
Bm
I know that it's hard
    A              E
So we can't go alone


Bm
Look at your reflection
                   A
Casting your own image in the stream
Bm
And though it rolls right through you
                             A            E
Something of your soul remains within, within


Bm
And I know that you don't know

Where we go, when we go

I know that it's hard
       A        E
So we can't go alone

I know that you never
     A        E
Let me go on my own

MEMOIRS OF AN OWNED DOG

You're going to be changing the bassnotes throughout the whole song. I'll try to get the
bassnotes right, they are pretty important for the sound of the song.


Intro:
C - C/G - C - C/G
C - C/G - C - C/G

C               C/G
the food was as I like it...
G     G/D
Cold, wet
F                     F/C             C         C/G
And in that wonderful tin can shape
Am                   Am/E
I had it marked in a paw print
F          F/C
on the dog door
C                      C  C/B C/A G
the day that I finally planned my escape

C            C/G
the milkman, he tried
G                       G/D
you can bet I wanted to survive
F                     F/C  C       C/G
but the truck it just came far too fast
Am                  Am/E
So I write on these scraps
F               F/C
my remembrances past
C            C/G            G         G/D
so you don't blame yourself that I've died


F                      F/C
they put horses out to pasture
C                  C/G
and the birds come home to roost
F                   F/C
ain't nothin' for a puppy
C                       C/G
but the backyard on the loose
F                     F/C
now I know my job was to
C        Am
lie idly beside
F               G                C       C/G
the way the sun retreats for the moon


      C         C/G
i had dreams of walking
G               G/D
the world on my own
F           F/C
four on the floor
C           C/G
every night all alone
Am          Am/E
i was ready to work
F                    F/C
for the scruff on my neck
C                C/G
yearning to find something
G            G/D
of my own to protect

C                  C/G
my bark, then, was surely
G              G/D
bigger than my bite
F               F/C
chewing the cud could've been
C              C/G
my biggest dog fight
Am                    Am/E
and you know how they say
F            F/C
we only hear certain things that you say
C                               C/G
well, it never mattered much to me
G                       G/D
but for the will of the way


F                      F/C
they put horses out to pasture
C                  C/G
and the birds come home to roost
F                   F/C
ain't nothin' for a puppy
C                       C/G
but the backyard on the loose
F                     F/C
now I know my job was to
C        Am
lie idly beside
F               G                C       C/G
the way the sun retreats for the moon

Bb                F
now I loosen this collar
C                  C/G
for a dog bone bow tie
Bb           F
to go up and meet
C                  C/G
the big dog in the sky
Bb                       F
i'll tell him when I get there
C                     C#dim
I was spoiled in your place
         F             F/C
with the hopes that my spirit
G
is honored by your grace

C                 C/G
so after you read this
G          G/D
memoir one day
F            F/C
or after you hear
C                C/G
my lonesome song play
Am                     Am/E
don't you trouble your mind
F                      F/C
this old hound's doin' fine
C                           C/G
you know, goodbyes are just words
G                  G/D
like a clock is to time

C                     C/G
so sorry I'm not with you
G                G/D
so sorry I can't be
F           F/C
please know I was
C                        C/G
the best friend this old mutt could be
Am                   Am/E
if you remember that spot
F                      F/C
where my favorite tree grows
C            C/G        G
I hung up my leash on a branch
C
now it's yours

=============================================================================

Intro:
Bb | F | Eb | F | Bb | Eb |
F | Bb |


Bb                        F
It took me 17 days in the pouring rain
Gm       F     Eb
and 2000 miles alone
Eb                         F
making my way through your kingdom
Gm                         F
on the wrong side of the road

Bb                    F
Eating at the service stations,
Gm          F         Eb
sleeping in motel rooms
Eb                                    F
When I leave I'll miss some friends I made,
Gm                         F
but this time I won't miss you

G                         Bb
No and I won’t miss these gray skies
Gm             F       Bb
That hang over me like fate
Eb                           F
Sometimes you think you need something new
Gm                                     C7
then you get it and it's just not the same

        Eb        F
Goodbye rain,
              Bb       Eb
Goodbye Queen Jane
F                     Gm                      C7
I'm going home to the Golden State to fix all of my mistakes
        Eb        F
Goodbye rain,
              Bb       Eb
Goodbye Queen Jane

| Bb | F | Bb |
| Eb | F | Bb |

Bb                    F
I ventured in to this foreign land
Gm             F                Eb
relying on the satellite
Eb                           F
Just when you're lost at the roundabout
Gm                           F
It tells you to go left or go right
Gm                           Bb
But now l long for familiar roads
Gm                 F        Bb
when I know how to take the turns
Eb                              F
I can't wait to get out of this place
Gm                     C7
with all of my lessons learned


        Eb        F
Goodbye rain,
              Bb       Eb
Goodbye Queen Jane
F                     Gm                      C7
I'm going home to the Golden State to fix all of my mistakes
        Eb        F
Goodbye rain,
              Bb       Eb
Goodbye Queen Janene

Eb                      F
I used to think I could love you
Gm           F         Bb
But you have proven me wrong
Eb                         F
The only thing you've been right about
G                C7
Is that we don't belong


        Eb        F
Goodbye rain,
              Bb       Eb
Goodbye Queen Jane
        Eb        F

For my silence is yours

My breath is a fort
