1. THE FIRST TIME

Can you believe it?
It's been almost ten years now
And I'm getting that feeling
As we're driving round this town
Passing by the old school yard
Everything just looks so small
Before the drums and the guitars
Way back when we knew it all

And she's sitting right next to me
Hand in the wind
That old white Cherokee I grew up in
Yeah it's crazy
Crazy, but it's true

[Chorus:]
That you never get a second chance at the first time
We will never be eighteen again
No you never get a second chance at the first time
Feels so good to see you my old friend
It's good to see you again

Can you believe it?
How much everything has changed
Well they shut down the old diner
And they put in some new chain
You know it's so good to see
Whoa, man your hair has got so long
Feels like it's been forever
We're still singing that old song

Well she's sitting right next to me
Hand in the wind
That old white Cherokee I grew up in
Yeah it's crazy
Crazy, but it's true

[Chorus:]
That you never get a second chance at the first time
We will never be eighteen again
No you never get a second chance at the first time
Feels so good to see you my old friend

Well you know they say that growing up is hard
Well it's so hard to think of how we almost got so far
Well do you remember the night of our first kiss
Well baby did it feel just a little bit like this
Ooh

Well she's sitting right next to me
Hand in the wind
That old white Cherokee I grew up in
Yeah it's crazy
Crazy, but it's true

[Chorus:]
Well you never get a second chance at the first time
We will never be eighteen again
No you never get a second chance at the first time
Feels so good to see you my old friend
It's good to see you again

It's good to see you again [x6]

3. CRAZY WORLD

The world is moving at the speed of light.
A million hearts are bouncing off a satellite.
You got the answer in the palm of your hand,
So many things that I don’t understand.

It’s a crazy world.

People talking through the video,
Everybody’s got their own damn TV show.
Everyday we’re on something new,
And none of that is gonna get me closer to you.

I wanna just slow down,
It’s a crazy world.
I wanna hold you now,
Just the boy and girl.

Sitting on the porch swing late at night,
Singing with the songs on the radio.
I wanna just slow down,
It’s a crazy world.

Lining up to start another war,
> But can you really tell me what we’re fighting for?
Stuck in the middle of a hurricane,
I think the world’s just might be going insane.

I wanna just slow down,
It’s a crazy world.
I wanna hold you now,
Just the boy and girl.

Sitting on the porch swing late at night,
Singing with the songs on the radio.
I wanna just slow down,
It’s a crazy world.

And I ain't gonna make the world change,
I don’t gotta win the rat race.
I just wanna see your face tonight.

I wanna just slow down,
It’s a crazy world.
I wanna hold you now,
Just the boy and girl.

I wanna just slow down,
It’s a crazy world.
I wanna hold you now,
Just the boy and girl.

Sitting on the porch swing late at night,
Singing with the songs on the radio.
I wanna just slow down,
It’s a crazy world

It’s a crazy world
It’s a crazy world


4. BE YOUR EVERYTHING

Four letter word
But I don't have the guts to say it
Smile 'til it hurts
Let's not make it complicated
We've got a story
And I'm about to change the ending
You're perfect for me
And more than just a friend
So we can just stop pretending now
Gotta let you know somehow

I'll be your shelter
I'll be your storm
I'll make you shiver
I'll keep you warm
Whatever weather
Baby I'm yours
Be your forever, be your fling
Baby I will be your everything

Baby I
Baby I will
Baby I will be your everything

We used to say
That we would always stick together
But who's to say
That we could never last forever
Girl, got a question
Could you see yourself with somebody else?
'Cause I'm on a mission
And I don't wanna share
I want you all to myself right now
I just wanna scream it out

I'll be your shelter
I'll be your storm
I'll make you shiver
I'll keep you warm
Whatever weather
Baby I'm yours
Be your forever, be your fling
Baby I will be your everything

Baby I
Baby I will
Baby I will be your everything

No matter what you do, yeah,
Oh, I'll be there for you
And every time you close your eyes
I will be by your side
'Cause every time you make me sing
Baby I will be your everything

I'll be your shelter
I'll be your storm
But I'll make you shiver
I'll keep you warm
Whatever weather
Baby I'm yours
Be your forever, be your fling
Baby I will be your everything

Baby I
Baby I will
Baby I will be your everything

Baby I
Baby I will
(I'll be your storm)
Baby I will be your everything

Baby I
(Yeah, yeah)
Baby I will
Baby I will be your everything


5. STUCK IN THE MIDDLE

Here I am again
Everybody's screaming
The walls are closing in
I'm stuck in the middle.
Swimming up a stream
Suffocating in between
I wake up from the dream
Still stuck in the middle
I guess this time I'll wait it out
Someday things will be perfect
It will be worth it all this time
Stuck in the middle
I know things will get better
Hold it together
Take your time
Stuck in the middle

Yeah
Eh

You push and then you shove,
You hate and then you love
You try to switch it up
But you're stuck in the middle
No matter what you do
You had it how you choose
Well either way you got to lose
When you're stuck in the middle.
I guess this time I'll wait it out

'Cause
Someday things will be perfect
It will be worth it all this time
Stuck in the middle
I know things will get better
Hold it together
Take your time
Stuck in the middle

You fight until you're free,
You're down on your knees
Hoping someday you'll make it out
If you just believe
There's hands around your neck
Hearts beatin out your chest
Well baby if you wait it out
You will see that

Someday things will be perfect
It will be worth it all this time
I know things will get better
Hold it together
Take your time
Stuck in the middle

Someday things will be perfect
It will be worth it all this time
Well, this time we're stuck in the middle
I know things will get better
Hold it together
Take your time
Well, this time we're stuck in the middle
You're stuck in the middle

Well, this time we're stuck in the middle
You're stuck in the middle


6. CHEATED

You cheated on me wo-oh

Can we skip the part where
You look in my eyes and
Tell me you apologize?
Even looking at me
Saying that you're sorry
Isn't gonna change my mind

After all we had
I just can't go back
To the life I wanted
I'm just being honest
This is where it ends, goodbye

Cause I know
You cheated on me
You cheated on me wo-oh
And I know
You'll never love me
You'll never love me, no-o
You fooled me once and I let you come home
Fooled me twice, now I'm letting you go
Cause I know
You cheated on me
You cheated on me wo-oh

Wo-oh o-o-oh
You cheated on me wo-oh

I know I don't deserve this
You don't get a last kiss
Gotta leave you now or never
This is gonna haunt you
Every guy that wants you
Is gonna see a scarlet letter

After all we had
I just can't go back
To the picked fences
Coming to my senses
This could never last forever

Cause I know
You cheated on me
You cheated on me wo-oh
And I know
You'll never love me
You'll never love me, no-o
You fooled me once and I let you come home
Fooled me twice, now I'm letting you go
Cause I know
You cheated on me
You cheated on me wo-oh

Wo-oh o-o-oh
You cheated on me wo-oh
Wo-oh o-o-oh
You cheated on me wo-oh

Late at night
In your bed full of roses
You reached for me
And get a hand full of thorns
But before you leave
I just thought you should know this

Wo-oh o-o-oh
I know wo-oh o-o-oh
I know
You cheated on me
You cheated on me wo-oh
And I know
You'll never love me
You'll never love me, no-o

Cause I know
You cheated on me
You cheated on me wo-oh
And I know
You'll never love me
You'll never love me, no-o
You fooled me once and I let you come home
Fooled me twice, now I'm letting you go
Cause I know
You cheated on me
You cheated on me wo-oh

Wo-oh o-o-oh
You cheated on me wo-oh
Wo-oh o-o-oh
You cheated on me wo-oh

Can we skip the part where
You look in my eyes and
Tell me you apologize?


7. SHOOT

They say the life is like a long and ragged road,
Well, I've been falling asleep at the wheel.
My nine to five has got me numb and feeling old,
It's time to live for the things that are real.

So wake up and shake it off and turn the car around.
Feel that, just take off and blow out of this town.

Has anybody got a one way ticket
To a brand new life, leave it all behind?
Put the pedal to the metal,
Time for living like it's all green lights on the road tonight.
Find a little bit of love, find a little bit of truth,
Get it cooking like a backyard barbecue.
Find a little bit of peace and a little bit of you
And put a bullet in all these blues,
Gonna pull the trigger, shoot.

Shoot

I go to work, I pay my bills, I bite my tongue,
Maybe it's time that I do something for myself.
I mow the grass, take out the trash, it's never done.
I'm not doing it all for my health.

And I'm ready, and it's Petty playing on the radio,
It's a good night, and we'll all drive,
So crank it up and here we go.

Has anybody got a one way ticket
To a brand new life, leave it all behind?
Put the pedal to the metal,
Time for living like it's all green lights on the road tonight.
Find a little bit of love, find a little bit of truth,
Get it cooking like a backyard barbecue.
Find a little bit of peace and a little bit of you
And put a bullet in all these blues,
Gonna pull the trigger, shoot.

Waooo!

Won't you give me something of that 'do you think'?
Singing "shoot".
Well, God dang, won't you give me something of that 'do your thing'?
Singing "shoot".
Well, God dang, won't you give me something of that 'do your thing'?
Singing "shoot".
Well, God dang, won't you give me something of that 'do your thing'?

Has anybody got a one way ticket
To a brand new life, leave it all behind?
Put the pedal to the metal,
Time for living like it's all green lights on the road tonight.

Has anybody got a one way ticket
To a brand new life, leave it all behind?
Put the pedal to the metal,
Time for living like it's all green lights on the road tonight.
Find a little bit of love, a little bit of truth,
It's cooking like a backyard barbecue.
Find a little bit of peace and a little bit of you
I've got a brand new attitude, I've been thinking bigger, shoot.

Waooo!

Well, God dang, won't you give me something of that 'do your thing'?
Singing "shoot".
Well, God dang, won't you give me something of that 'do your thing'?
Singing "shoot".
Well, God dang, won't you give me something of that 'do your thing'?

Shoot.

And that's the story, I'm leaving tonight
Yeah, shoot
I wish... play me out
A backyard barbecue
Just a little bit of you
A little bit of me
A little bit of ba-dow ba-dow ba-dow ba-dow...


8. LEAVING CALIFORNIA

Well, I’m holding on, yeah, I'm holding it all in
When it all goes wrong you just can't win.
I can’t stand another sunrise and I need a little rain
Well, the angels left this city and they won’t be back again.

Now I’m leaving California and I’ll never look back.
I took a picture for you but I painted it black.
One more dream around a run away drive,
Now there's one less burned out star in the sky,
Leaving California tonight.

There's a broken dream in Santa Monica, crushing night,
And that old movie, well, it’s got in my way tonight,
And the lights are in the rear view and the stars up in the sky
And I don’t know where I’m going, baby, but it’s time to say goodbye.

Now I’m leaving California and I’ll never look back.
I took a picture for you but I painted it black.
One more dream around a run away drive,
Now there's one less burned out star in the sky,
Leaving California tonight.

I've got a one way ticket, I’m a rolling stone,
I’m a goodbye kiss and then I’m going, going, gone.
Like wind, like fire, like rain,
Know I’m never coming back again.

‘Cause I’m leaving California and I’ll never look back.
I took a picture for you but I painted it black.
One more dream around a run away drive,
Now there's one less burned out star in the sky,
Leaving California,

Now I’m leaving California and I’ll never look back.
I took a picture for you but I painted it black.
One more dream around a run away drive,
Now there's one less burned out star in the sky,
Leaving California tonight


9. TAKE ME HOME

Four in the morning, the party's over,
I think I need you now.
I can't remember when you left me,
But I'm alone somehow.

I can hear your voice ringing in my ear,
Telling me to just slow down.
Sometimes I'm on a run. What have I become?
That's enough, I'm tappin' out.

Won't you take me home? (I've been standing too close to the edge)
Take me home. (I've been standing too close to the edge)
Calming down, I lost the fight.
And I can't make it out here on my own, so take me home.
(I've been standing to close to the edge)

Wrote you a letter, I never sent it,
It doesn't matter now.
All my intentions went out the window,
Don't let me hit the ground.

Can you hear my voice, calling out your name?
I know that I let you down.
Sometimes I'm on a run. What have I become?
That's enough, I'm tappin' out.

Won't you take me home? (I've been standing too close to the edge)
Take me home. (I've been standing too close to the edge)
Calming down, I lost the fight.
And I can't make it out here on my own, so take me home.
(I've been standing to close to the edge)

Lost the love on lonely road.
Where I'm going - no one knows.
So won't you come and pick me up and take me home?

I've been standing too close to the edge, now.
I've been standing too close to the edge.
I've been standing too close to the edge, now.
I've been standing too close to the edge.

Won't you take me home? (I've been standing too close to the edge)
Take me home. (I've been standing too close to the edge) Won't you take me home?
Calming down, I lost the fight.
And I can't make it out here on my own,
So take me home, (I've been standing too close to the edge)
Take me home tonight.

Four in the morning, the party's over,
I think I need you now


10. RED CUP, HANDS UP, LONG BROWN HAIR

Hey hey

Woo

She's full moon shining
Like a summer night's star
She's the girl sunbathing
On the hood of her car
She's a silver screen honey
With her ray-bans on
Get your heartbeat racing like a ticking time bomb

She likes to rock it with the rag top down
With the radio up
And she's singing out loud
Yeah
She likes to party in the middle of the day
She's like anywhere, don't care
Carried away

Yeah

[Chorus:]
She's crazy
I don't care
'Cause I'm crazy about the girl with the red cup hands up long brown hair
I can't help it
It's not fair
I'm crazy about the girl with the red cup hands up long brown hair

She likes making a scene everywhere she goes
Watch her paint this town like a Vince Van Gogh
Eenie meenie miney
No you never never know
What's she's gonna do next
With the lights down low

Oh watch her go now

[Chorus]

She's everything I'm looking for
She's my everything and so much more
She's a natural kind of beauty
Oh it's getting to me
I can't take it anymore

[Chorus]


11. HEY YOU

I saw you sitting all by yourself,
With a coffee and The New York Times.
You got me thinking like what the hell
Before I go and change my mind.

Hey, you, feel like falling in love on a subway train.
Hey, you, do you tell me, baby, I don’t know your name.
Tell me, I don’t know your name.

We say what we say,
We do what we do,
We love who we love,
Hey, you.
If life is a small town, we’re just passing through
Blink and you miss it, hey you.

Just another pair of old black boots,
With the jacket on and a ticket home.
Just a dreamer on a Sunday night
Who is gonna leave you alone.

Hey, you, feel like falling in love on a subway train.
Hey, you, do you tell me, baby, I don’t know your name.
Tell me, I don’t know your name.

We say what we say,
We do what we do,
We love who we love,
Hey, you.
If life is a small town, we’re just passing through
Blink and you miss it, hey you.

Hey, you, hey, you.
Hey, you, hey you.

We don’t have to say forever,
I’m cool with whatever,
Love is coping.
We can just sit here at night,
Just two strangers in the night,
Ain't that what we're supposed to do?

We say what we say,
We do what we do,
We love who we love,
Hey, you.
If this is the moment, the moment of truth,
I don’t wanna miss it, hey you, hey you, hey you.

Hey you, hey you, hey you, hey you.
Hey you, hey you, hey you, hey you.

Hey, you, feel like falling in love on a subway train.
Won’t you tell me your name?
