Other Side of the Moon

THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN

Guess who just got back today?
Those wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, haven't much to say
But man, I still think those cats are great
They were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
I told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy
The boys are back in town
You know the chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean she was steaming
That night over at Johnny's place
Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
Man we just fell about the place
If that chick don't want to know, forget her
Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's bar and grill
The drink will flow and blood will spill
If the boys want to fight, you'd better let them
That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song
The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
It won't be long till summer comes
Now that the boys are here again
The boys are back in town

NASTY SUNNY BEAM

I can't get out of bed
can't get my dreams out
of my sleepy head I open up my eyes
and wonder where you are
but soon I realize
that you're not real
and I am... in between of day and dream
life and death a lazy stream
in between of day and dream
hello, goodbye
you nasty sunny beam I try to seal my mind
get back to where you were
you were that perfect kind
you drove me crazy somewhere (I'm floating down again
and my world is a syrup waterfall
I can't remember when
or where
or why) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

POOH SONG

when the cats and dogs is falling
I'm recalling you
you said I'd be bored today
and I don't know what I want to do wise eyes tell me twice
dance like penguins in my table
ain't my kind of joy
on every Friday night I'm just whistling on a song when I'm out of milk and honey
I'm recalling you
when my walls are closing in
I always have a place to go I'm just whistling on a song
songs I know / songs we wrote
songs I know / songs we wrote together
I'm just whistling on a song when my world is far too evil
I'm recalling you
things are hard to understand
there's little that I really know

COUNTRY HELL

such a foolish thing
what a way to be
I couldn't stay in here
and it's not right to leave
I couldn't tell you how
but all the things I feel
have their qualities if you fall apart
fall into my arms
one uneasy morning
doesn't make me leave such a simple thing
what a way to say
I couldn't help myself
for my foolish ways
you couldn't tell me how
but all the things you feel
have their qualities if you fall apart
fall into my arms
one uneasy morning
doesn't make me leave
I will never leave

WAR (FIRST TRY)

come on, come on, come on
come on, it's war, come on
come on, come on, come on

with blood, with love hear the dust roll over the floor
why must you sleep?
come crush me now
I'm armed and ready to die

CARNIVAL (PUCK VERSION)

I will never know
cause you will never show
come on and love me now
come on and love me now carnival came by my town today
bright lights from giantwheels
fall on the alleyways
and I'm here
by my door
waiting for you I will never know
cause you will never show
come on and love me now
come on and love me now I hear sounds of lovers
barrel organs, mothers
I would like to take you
down there
just to make you mine
in a merry-go-round ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Guitar, Bass, Drum Chords Notes Tab Tabs

First, I definitely think that the Cardigans use a Capo on the second fret,
and that the key of "Carnival" is E.
Basically, if you play "Carnival" in E, you will use the following chords: Chords
------ 1) near the capo
As you can see, the first chord is a strange F#m maybe 7 or 9, I don't
know, but it sounds exactly like in "Carnival".
The chords 4,5 and 6 are the bossa-style chords that are so hard to catch
on "by my door, waiting for you".

LOSERS (FIRST TRY)

all these losers
everywhere
they annoy me
still I care you wish that you were special
I'm just like you close your eyes
that'll be the day you'll find those lies
fold your ears
that'll be the day that you will hear
that'll be the day you'll
get back home moved by weirdos
my weak, weak heart
I will always
be a part -------------------------------------------------------------------------
