Wherever you go, there you are
There is no escape from your own heart
Time is marching on and all my plans are a memory
I am stranded here but in my mind I can see
Chorus
Shimnavale, Shimnavale,
Where my poor shipwrecked heart longs to dwell
I was young and foolish then
How I long to return to Shimnavale
I went looking for a better life,
Make a fortune, find a pretty wife
Some who left before me
Have returned home broken men
But I’ll be rich before I ever set foot there again
Chorus
Well I know you have to start somewhere
Now I’m lonelier than I can bear
I felt sure success was waiting here for me to find,
Now I’m ready to believe that God has changed his mind
Shimnavale, Shimnavale,
I was sure in my heart I would prevail
Now I’m gone beyond the pale
But I’d die a happy man in Shimnavale
Repeat 1st chorus
There is no escape from your own heart
Time is marching on and all my plans are a memory
I am stranded here but in my mind I can see
Chorus
Shimnavale, Shimnavale,
Where my poor shipwrecked heart longs to dwell
I was young and foolish then
How I long to return to Shimnavale
I went looking for a better life,
Make a fortune, find a pretty wife
Some who left before me
Have returned home broken men
But I’ll be rich before I ever set foot there again
Chorus
Well I know you have to start somewhere
Now I’m lonelier than I can bear
I felt sure success was waiting here for me to find,
Now I’m ready to believe that God has changed his mind
Shimnavale, Shimnavale,
I was sure in my heart I would prevail
Now I’m gone beyond the pale
But I’d die a happy man in Shimnavale
Repeat 1st chorus
Oh let’s get on with the game,
There’s no need to wonder why
You don’t mention my name –
Here’s mud in your eye
Did we waste those precious years?
Does it ever cross your mind?
Does it ever cross mine?
Let me say, not a day goes by
Oh you’re not long for this world
You will always find
Battalions of trouble
Marching behind
Still returning like a ghost
To the scene of the crime
If I could go back in time…
Anyway, not a day goes by
Well I had to take that chance
It was now or never
I had to be with her,
She’s the apple of my eye.
Well, regrets I have a few
And they multiply
Like the stars in the sky
Anyway, not a day goes by
So let’s get on with the game
There’s no need to wonder why
Do I think of you and I?
Let me say, not a day goes by

Now the moon and stars have gone
I am helpless
But I will try to carry on
I know I must change
And I curse the boss
Who sent you there and made you stay,
And I would gladly give all the gold in San Jose
Just to hear your voice
Chorus
Because the fires of love, the fires of love
They still burn
In their mansions
Safe tonight behind the door
While I suffer,
I don’t want to suffer any more.
I know I must change
Because the fires of love, the fires of love
They must burn
Jimmy Sanchez
The flames of love will guide you home
To your baby
To everything you’ve ever known
Chorus
Repeat 1st verse

Chorus
Repeat 1st verse
I am the captain of my soul
I must leave this place and find my home
When I finally walk out this door
I will be lonely no more
There must be a better life somewhere
Another night alone is hard to bear
But in my dreams I see her on the shore
And I will be lonely no more
I am inclined to believe I have wasted my time
We all make mistakes but I hope yours are better than mine
I want to believe love’s the only thing worth waiting for
And I will be lonely no more
I will be lonely no more
I must leave this place and find my home
When I finally walk out this door
I will be lonely no more
There must be a better life somewhere
Another night alone is hard to bear
But in my dreams I see her on the shore
And I will be lonely no more
I am inclined to believe I have wasted my time
We all make mistakes but I hope yours are better than mine
I want to believe love’s the only thing worth waiting for
And I will be lonely no more
I will be lonely no more
All them cowboys are old men,
Longing for a mission once again
Gambling everything - boys, we were fearless
Well we had the right stuff then
We were brothers bound together
Sharing every victory and pain
Never will there be such good companions
We’ll never see that right stuff again
Chorus
So farewell, my friends
Till we meet again
In some bar where angels fear to tread
Some have already gone
But it won’t be long
Till we’re all together again
Time is such a strange arrangement
You think you have too much and then it’s gone
But I know this world will keep on turning
When you and me have slipped this mortal coil
Chorus x 2

Chorus x 2
My foolish heart
Is broken today
I wanted you to love me
In my foolish way
Now I can see clearly
From the top of this hill
Maybe you don’t want to go on
But maybe I will
My foolish dreams
Are scattered and gone
I wanted you to see them
But I’ve lost every one
Now I have nothing
Only time to kill
Maybe I won’t make it alone
Or maybe I will
My foolish words
Came out awkwardly
I wanted you to hear them
But you threw them back at me
And all my good reasons
Fell out in a spill
Maybe I’ll never have the courage I need
Or maybe I will
Maybe I’ll never, ever really know
Or maybe I will
Is broken today
I wanted you to love me
In my foolish way
Now I can see clearly
From the top of this hill
Maybe you don’t want to go on
But maybe I will
My foolish dreams
Are scattered and gone
I wanted you to see them
But I’ve lost every one
Now I have nothing
Only time to kill
Maybe I won’t make it alone
Or maybe I will
My foolish words
Came out awkwardly
I wanted you to hear them
But you threw them back at me
And all my good reasons
Fell out in a spill
Maybe I’ll never have the courage I need
Or maybe I will
Maybe I’ll never, ever really know
Or maybe I will
I’ve lived many lives
I’ve heard of many Gods
But I just don’t know
If there’s anyone at all
To be on the safe side
When I’ve had my final day
I have left instructions
To help me on my way
Chorus
Just above my heart
There’s a small tattoo
Please return to Jesus
Thank you
I know I’m a sinner
And I’ve been unkind
But if I had the power
I would heal the blind
Chorus
If miracles came easy
Healing’s all I’d do
And if I had to choose a God
I’d probably choose you
Chorus
I’ve heard of many Gods
But I just don’t know
If there’s anyone at all
To be on the safe side
When I’ve had my final day
I have left instructions
To help me on my way
Chorus
Just above my heart
There’s a small tattoo
Please return to Jesus
Thank you
I know I’m a sinner
And I’ve been unkind
But if I had the power
I would heal the blind
Chorus
If miracles came easy
Healing’s all I’d do
And if I had to choose a God
I’d probably choose you
Chorus
If I had money
I’d buy me a boat
Filled with provisions
And I’d write you this note
Farewell my sweet love
And darling beware
Watch out for people
Cos they’re everywhere
Adrift to the sunset
Right up to the edge
Up to the top of the world
In The Sailor’s Revenge
My heart is broken
And it’s more than I can stand
To be among people
Back on dry land
One day I’ll come home
At my journey’s end
You’ll see me approaching
In The Sailor’s Revenge
Back to my sweet love
My only true friend
No more to set sail
On The Sailor’s Revenge
I’d buy me a boat
Filled with provisions
And I’d write you this note
Farewell my sweet love
And darling beware
Watch out for people
Cos they’re everywhere
Adrift to the sunset
Right up to the edge
Up to the top of the world
In The Sailor’s Revenge
My heart is broken
And it’s more than I can stand
To be among people
Back on dry land
One day I’ll come home
At my journey’s end
You’ll see me approaching
In The Sailor’s Revenge
Back to my sweet love
My only true friend
No more to set sail
On The Sailor’s Revenge
On the broadway for the dawn
Waiting for the man to come
And like cattle one by one
He took his pick of the young and strong
Well I had no better plan
When I was a working man
I swung the hammer every day
Choking dust all came my way
And the time crawled by so slow
Till they told me I could go
So tired that I could hardly stand
When I was a working man
Just a part of their machine
Like so many before me
I said farewell and left my home
To try and make it on my own
I was a stranger in that land
When I was a working man
I needed money in my hand
When I was a working man
Waiting for the man to come
And like cattle one by one
He took his pick of the young and strong
Well I had no better plan
When I was a working man
I swung the hammer every day
Choking dust all came my way
And the time crawled by so slow
Till they told me I could go
So tired that I could hardly stand
When I was a working man
Just a part of their machine
Like so many before me
I said farewell and left my home
To try and make it on my own
I was a stranger in that land
When I was a working man
I needed money in my hand
When I was a working man
I just wanted to live a quiet life
Keep my head down
Come home every night
But it’s all gone to Hell
All my good plans fell through
Since I stumbled on the beauty of you
You won’t let this chance slip away
Just to keep those demons at bay
And you’ll gamble on a glimpse
Of a heart that is true
Baby that’s the beauty of you
Looks like our work is cut out
You’re everything that I dreamed about
Oh you just get better like wine
We should make the most of our time
And I know that you want
The same things I do
Baby that’s the beauty of you
Keep my head down
Come home every night
But it’s all gone to Hell
All my good plans fell through
Since I stumbled on the beauty of you
You won’t let this chance slip away
Just to keep those demons at bay
And you’ll gamble on a glimpse
Of a heart that is true
Baby that’s the beauty of you
Looks like our work is cut out
You’re everything that I dreamed about
Oh you just get better like wine
We should make the most of our time
And I know that you want
The same things I do
Baby that’s the beauty of you
We’ll go down together
Time to dream, not to sleep
We’ll go where there’s treasure
Far away across the deep
Chorus
Will you come with me
Will you come with me
Into the wild and cold Celtic Sea
I have stood on this corner
Like a man cast away
I won’t last one more summer
I can’t stand another day
Chorus
La Mer Celtique
Into the wild and cold Celtic Sea
They’ll write songs about us
So with a glass in each hand
We’ll bound for glory
We should go while we still can
Chorus
Time to dream, not to sleep
We’ll go where there’s treasure
Far away across the deep
Chorus
Will you come with me
Will you come with me
Into the wild and cold Celtic Sea
I have stood on this corner
Like a man cast away
I won’t last one more summer
I can’t stand another day
Chorus
La Mer Celtique
Into the wild and cold Celtic Sea
They’ll write songs about us
So with a glass in each hand
We’ll bound for glory
We should go while we still can
Chorus
I can feel my heart
And its fit to burst
I tried to clean it up
But I just get worse
I wish I could fall
On a night like this
Into your loving arms
For a moonlight kiss
I thought I saw your face
In the evening sky
On a lonesome cloud
That was drifting by
I wish I could fall
On a night like this
Into your loving arms
For a moonlight kiss
You got someone else
Maybe it’s for the best
Since I took the cure
For happiness
But I'd trade it all
On a night a like this
For your loving arms
And a moonlight kiss
For your loving arms
And a moonlight kiss
And its fit to burst
I tried to clean it up
But I just get worse
I wish I could fall
On a night like this
Into your loving arms
For a moonlight kiss
I thought I saw your face
In the evening sky
On a lonesome cloud
That was drifting by
I wish I could fall
On a night like this
Into your loving arms
For a moonlight kiss
You got someone else
Maybe it’s for the best
Since I took the cure
For happiness
But I'd trade it all
On a night a like this
For your loving arms
And a moonlight kiss
For your loving arms
And a moonlight kiss
A train pulls in above the street
Soft and low like a mother's heartbeat
I've been trying to get my mind off me
But I'm more self conscious than I've ever been
By the time
You get this
I'll be long gone
God's my witness
It's all there in black and white
It's just the story of my life
Well, you either get it or you don't
You're the only one I've ever told
By the time
You get this
I'll be long gone
God's my witness
And it's hard
To keep living
When I know I'm
Unforgiven
Still it comes, still it comes
There was nothing else I could've done
Not with the cards they gave me
Do you think you'll ever forgive me?
By the time
You get this
I'll be long gone
God's my witness
It's so hard
To keep living
when I know I'm
Unforgiven
Hey
Unforgiven
Unforgiven
Unforgiven
Unforgiven
Soft and low like a mother's heartbeat
I've been trying to get my mind off me
But I'm more self conscious than I've ever been
By the time
You get this
I'll be long gone
God's my witness
It's all there in black and white
It's just the story of my life
Well, you either get it or you don't
You're the only one I've ever told
By the time
You get this
I'll be long gone
God's my witness
And it's hard
To keep living
When I know I'm

God's my witness
It's so hard

when I know I'm
Unforgiven
Hey
Unforgiven
Unforgiven
Unforgiven
Unforgiven
Leave behind your worries
They're really very small
Come with me, set sail with me
On the Mighty Ocean Alcohol
I've sailed around insanity
I've heard those demons call
And once or twice, I have been capsized
On the mighty ocean Alcohol.
I lost my darling brother
I watched him slowly fall
As he hit the spray
He was swept away
On the Mighty Ocean Alcohol.
Leave behind your worries
They're really very small
Come with me, set sail with me
On the Mighty Ocean Alcohol
On the Mighty Ocean Alcohol
They're really very small
Come with me, set sail with me

My reality cheque has bounced
Can’t take much more than an ounce
You need a heart of stone
Not to laugh when I’m down for the count
I’m gonna fight my way out.
You think I should behave
You think I’m digging my own grave
It’s gonna take a lot to get me outta this spot
I’m nobody’s slave
Baby I’m this way 24 hours a day
Trying to make a living
While everybody’s making hay
And I can’t go out tonight
'Cos I don’t have a light
Somebody stole my Milky Way
And I can’t come out to play
You just roll in with the tide
Like you’re just along for the ride
Are you with me or not
‘Cos I’m givin’ it my best shot
You better start taking sides
Baby I’m this way 24 hours a day
Tryin to make a livin’
While everybody’s making hay
And I can’t go out tonight

What can I tell you,
I was a just a kid
I've no idea,
why I did the things I did
If I have one regret it's her
Though I pretend that I don't care
You don't love her
The way I love her
You don't love her the way I do
When I saw her,
I forgot the years
All those pointless,
arguments and tears
And as far as I can see
You've been worse for her than me
You don't love her
The way I love you
You don't love her the way I do
You don't love her
The way I love her
You don't love her, she loves you
I did the things I chose to do
My plans did not include her too
I'm back in town, I just got free
And you're standing there instead of me
You don't love her
The way I love her
You don't love her the way I do
You don't love her
The way I love you
You don't love her, she loves you
You don't love her
The way I love her
You don't love her the way I do
You don't love her
The way I love her
You don't love her, she loves you
I was a just a kid
I've no idea,
why I did the things I did
If I have one regret it's her
Though I pretend that I don't care
You don't love her
The way I love her
You don't love her the way I do
When I saw her,
I forgot the years
All those pointless,
arguments and tears
And as far as I can see
You've been worse for her than me
You don't love her
The way I love you
You don't love her the way I do
You don't love her
The way I love her
You don't love her, she loves you
I did the things I chose to do
My plans did not include her too
I'm back in town, I just got free
And you're standing there instead of me
You don't love her
The way I love her
You don't love her the way I do
You don't love her
The way I love you
You don't love her, she loves you
You don't love her
The way I love her
You don't love her the way I do
You don't love her
The way I love her
You don't love her, she loves you
Nothing is heavier
In the universe
Than the human heart
Still suffering
For an ancient sin
We all played our part
Nothing is stronger
In the universe
Than the human heart
Outside the gates
Trying to push our way in
Before it gets too dark
(chorus) Howl on, Howl on Till the pain is gone
Howl on, Howl on, Howl on
Nothing is lonelier
In the universe
Than the human heart
Left to ponder
A lifetime without love
Each time it falls apart
(chorus)
Nothing is greater
In the universe
Than the human heart
To rise above
The sorrowful earth
The agony and the hurt
(chorus x 3)
....Howl on, Howl on, Howl on.
In the universe
Than the human heart
Still suffering
For an ancient sin
We all played our part
Nothing is stronger
In the universe
Than the human heart
Outside the gates
Trying to push our way in
Before it gets too dark
(chorus) Howl on, Howl on Till the pain is gone
Howl on, Howl on, Howl on
Nothing is lonelier
In the universe
Than the human heart
Left to ponder
A lifetime without love
Each time it falls apart
(chorus)
Nothing is greater
In the universe
Than the human heart
To rise above
The sorrowful earth
The agony and the hurt
(chorus x 3)
....Howl on, Howl on, Howl on.
Don’t crack up now
Don’t go weird on me babe
Don’t burst my bubble
Don’t rain on my parade
I got evicted … from my castle in the sky
If money could talk … it would say ‘goodbye’
And just when it feels .. like none of it's real
Suddenly, the sweet smell of success
I must be stupid, I don’t get it at all
I’m in a barrel, headin’ for a waterfall
Don’t kid yourself, you’re in one, as well
That’s why I’m laughin,’ that’s why I’m happy as hell.
And just when it feels
Like none of it’s real
Suddenly, the sweet smell of success
Suddenly, the sweet smell of success.
It won’t change me I’m goin' out with a bang
Whatever happens remember, karma is a boomerang
Suddenly … the sweet smell of success
Suddenly … the sweet smell of success
Don’t go weird on me babe
Don’t burst my bubble
Don’t rain on my parade
I got evicted … from my castle in the sky
If money could talk … it would say ‘goodbye’
And just when it feels .. like none of it's real
Suddenly, the sweet smell of success
I must be stupid, I don’t get it at all
I’m in a barrel, headin’ for a waterfall
Don’t kid yourself, you’re in one, as well
That’s why I’m laughin,’ that’s why I’m happy as hell.
And just when it feels
Like none of it’s real
Suddenly, the sweet smell of success
Suddenly, the sweet smell of success.
It won’t change me I’m goin' out with a bang
Whatever happens remember, karma is a boomerang
Suddenly … the sweet smell of success
Suddenly … the sweet smell of success
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
Hold my flame
Hold my flame lightly
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
Hold my dream
Hold my dreams gently
I would give my all
If I could only somehow fall
Into the arms of love
Baby the time has come
We don't have very long
And the chain
And the chain is tightening
Baby I think I see
This could be the making of me
But the pain came like lightening
And shook me like a doll
If I could only somehow fall
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
I dont wanna lead you on
I won't string you along
But my head is spinning
A war's tearing me apart
Between my head and heart
But my heart, but my heart is winning
On my hands and knees I'd crawl
If I could only somehow fall
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
Hold my flame
Hold my flame lightly
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
Hold my dream
Hold my dreams gently
I would give my all
If I could only somehow fall
Into the arms of love
Baby the time has come
We don't have very long
And the chain
And the chain is tightening
Baby I think I see
This could be the making of me
But the pain came like lightening
And shook me like a doll
If I could only somehow fall
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
I dont wanna lead you on
I won't string you along
But my head is spinning
A war's tearing me apart
Between my head and heart
But my heart, but my heart is winning
On my hands and knees I'd crawl
If I could only somehow fall
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
Into the arms of love
I was living on the dark end
Of Lonely Street
Hoping that some day
I would meet
Somebody like me
Somebody like you
But how can we start?
What can we do?
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
It's a good place to start
The world is against us
And tears will flow
But if love can save us
How will we know?
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
And now the sky
Is a beautiful blue
Just how I feel
When I think about you
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
Of Lonely Street
Hoping that some day
I would meet
Somebody like me
Somebody like you
But how can we start?
What can we do?
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
It's a good place to start
The world is against us
And tears will flow
But if love can save us
How will we know?
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
And now the sky
Is a beautiful blue
Just how I feel
When I think about you
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
Be true to your heart
I’ve given in my notice
Goin' downtown to get loaded
Gonna spend this money
You know the way it goes
Sometimes you’re on a rock, Sometimes you’re on a roll.
Well I know the price of love
And I feel like givin’ up
Somethin’ always comes along
Ah, baby doll you know
Sometimes you’re on a rock, Sometimes you’re on a roll.
I can’t sleep tonight
And the traffic sounds just like
Sounds just like the ocean
Telling me to go
Sometimes you’re on a rock, Sometimes you’re on a roll.
Goin' downtown to get loaded
Gonna spend this money
You know the way it goes
Sometimes you’re on a rock, Sometimes you’re on a roll.
Well I know the price of love
And I feel like givin’ up
Somethin’ always comes along
Ah, baby doll you know
Sometimes you’re on a rock, Sometimes you’re on a roll.
I can’t sleep tonight
And the traffic sounds just like
Sounds just like the ocean
Telling me to go
Sometimes you’re on a rock, Sometimes you’re on a roll.
