The Fray "Over My Head" chords & lyrics
Since the title track of their debut album "How to Save a Life", The Fray have continued to produce songs which are 'instant anthems'. "How to Save a Life" and "You Found Me" are two of the most downloaded songs from my website."Over My Head" (Cab...
Jack Johnson "Hope" guitar chords & lyrics
When I heard about the impending release of Jack Johnson's new album 'En Concert', it reminded me how great the 2008 'Sleep Through the Static" album was, and how few songs I'd worked out from it. The last Jack Johnson song chords I posted to the s...
Stereophonics - "Innocent" guitar chords & lyrics
The Stereophonics are one of those bands who seem to have been around for ever! According to Wikipedia, they were formed in 1992, released their first album in 1997, since when they've released 6 albums, 5 of which have topped the UK albums chart. ...
Snow Patrol "Just say Yes" chords and lyrics
Snow Patrol are one of those bands who I really like, but maybe not in my 'Top 10', but I always enjoy playing Snow Patrol songs on my guitar, so I was thrilled to find out that they're releasing a new compilation album "Up To Now" this month, with...
Rory Gallagher "I\'m not awake yet" chords & lyrics
Once again, somewhat 'punching above my weight' with this, but it's a great song by one of my favourite all-time artists, and I am a huge Rory Gallagher fan, and I actually have a Rory Gallagher chords page on my website.Ok, I know my version of the ...
The Frames "Seven Day Mile" chords & lyrics
I find myself more and more depending on hearing good songs on TV ads and programs, to get songs I'd like to work out and feature on the site. "House" has been a particulary good source recently, they've used some clips of great songs in the first 5 ...
Iron and Wine - Love Vigilantes
I am only a recent convert to the silky voice and fantastic songwriting of Sam Beam, a.k.a. "Iron and Wine", but I had already worked out and posted four of his songs to my Rock Songs guitar chords page, and I've now worked out chords and lyrics for...
Jason Mraz "Make it Mine" chords and lyrics
Having been one of the last on the planet to 'discover' him, I posted my interpretation of the chords and lyrics for Jason Mraz' "I'm Yours" , the first single from his 2008 album "We sing, we dance, we steal things" about a month ago. As it's been ...
Arctic Monkeys "Crying Lightning" chords and lyrics
"Crying Lightning" is the first single from the Arctic Monkeys 2009 album "Humbug".The Arctic Monkeys are one of my favourite bands, and even though their quirky manic brand of rock doesn't lend itself terribly well to 'busking' on an acoustic, I've ...
Weezer - "I want you to" chords and lyrics
The full song title "If you're wondering if I want you to, I want you to" wouldn't fit in the title bar, for obvious reasons!Just realised that the last time I posted Weezer song chords to the site ( "Peace" from the 2005 album "Make Believe" ) was...
The Fray - Never Say Never chords and lyrics
"Never Say Never" is the 2nd single from The Fray's 2nd album, "The Fray", and although they are pretty much a 'piano-rock' band, it's another good song to play on guitar. I had already worked out and posted chords and lyrics to "You Found Me" , the...
Pearl Jam - The Fixer chords and lyrics
I guess some bands just pass ya by! Unbelievably "The Fixer", from the new "Backspacer" album is the first Pearl Jam song I've worked out and posted to my chords and lyrics site.It wasn't that I didn't like the band - I particularly liked "Jeremy", ...
Plain White T's "1-2-3-4" guitar chords & lyrics
Haven't really heard much from Plain White T's for a while, so this is only my second attempt at working out one of their songs, having posted chords and lyrics for "Hey There Delilah back in 2007.This time I've worked out their other big hit single ...
Lady Lenka - The Show chords and lyrics
This is another one of those really good songs I first heard on a TV advert, though I can't actually remember what the ad was for! Took me a while to locate it, as I thought it was called "Caught in the middle", but a search on the always reliable ...
Wilco "Summer Teeth" guitar chords and lyrics
Looking forward immensely to hearing the new Wilco album ( imaginatively titled "Wilco, the album"...!), their first since 'Sky Blue Sky', and by all accounts a class collection of songs.Meantime, I'm listening to my back catalogue, and have picked "...
Rod Stewart - In a Broken Dream ( Python Lee Jackson )
Every now and again I hear a song on the radio that I used to play years ago, but haven't played in a long time. So I get my guitar out, and, as I've usually forgotten some if not all of the lyrics ( chords too! ), I go to the artist page on my site...
Midlake - "Roscoe" guitar chords and lyrics
Another 'debut' band for my site! Not that Midlake are a new band ( formed in 1999, according to the ever-reliable Wikipedia ). Hailing from Texas, they list Radiohead, Jethro Tull, Grandaddy and Travis amongst their influences, which was good enoug...
Wilco - 'My Darling' guitar chords and lyrics
So far I've mainly been working out and including Wilco songs from "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot", this having been the album which ( somewhat belatedly ) got me hooked.The plan was to move forward thru the newer albums, but I don't make any apologies for no...
Iron and Wine - "Passing Afternoon" chords and lyrics
Iron and Wine fans will be pleased to hear that, having posted chords & lyrics for my first Iron & Wine song ( Flightless Bird, American Mouth ) only yesterday, I have posted another today - "Passing Afternoon".Followers of the US series "Ho...
Nickelback - "I'd come for you" guitar chords & lyrics
Up to now I didn't have a Nickelback page on my guitar chords & lyrics site, but I had previously posted my interpretations of "You Remind Me", "Rock Star" and "Be Somebody" to my Rock song chords page. As I have now added the song chords and lyr...
The Script "Man who cant be moved" chords & lyrics
I had already posted chords and lyrics for "Breakeven" by Dublin three-piece band The Script, who are maintaining the trend of new Irish band producing pop-rock anthems over the past few years."Breakeven" was actually the third single take from their...
Nilsson - Without You chords and lyrics
As my site has now been around for 10 years, I've come to assume that I had posted all of the older, classic songs years ago. It's really only now, when I'm struggling to find good, new guitar songs, that the "Golden Oldie" radio stations are gettin...
The Shins 'Australia' guitar chords & lyrics
Just realized that it's nearly five months since I added a song from my newest 'favourite band', The Shins - shame on me! The songs are pretty quirky, and difficult enough to work out, although in the end, reasonably easy to play. This time around, ...
Ane Brun 'Big in Japan' guitar chords & lyrics
I have to admit, I hadn't heard of Ane Brun, who hails from Norway, until I tried to find out who sang the song on the Sky HD TV ad, and found it was her.Not sure if "Big in Japan" has been released in Ireland/UK ( or even the US? ) but it's getting ...
Tom Waits - "Briar and the Rose" guitar chords
Always delighted to get requests for Tom Waits songs, mainly 'cos he's about my favourite artist, and also because I usually already have the chords for the song requested.But typically...! Alan from Wellington, New Zealand requested chords for "Br...
Duffy "Mercy" guitar chords and lyrics
I am a recent convert to the wond'rous soulful singer from Wales called Aimee Ann Duffy, or just plain "Duffy". Having somehow original confused the name with "Fergie", I managed to avoid listening to any of the songs from "Rockferry" until I was blo...
Tom Waits "Tell It To Me" guitar chords & lyrics
As a huge Tom Waits fan, its pretty bad form that I had to wait for a visitor's request to sit down and work out another song from the fabulous "Orphans". Anyone familiar with the album will know that there are 3 'themed' CDs - 'Bawlers' , 'Brawlers...
James Morrison - You make it real for me chords & lyrics
I've had quite a number of requests for this song, the first single from James Morrison's 2008 album "Songs for You, Truths for me'. While I wouldn't say I'm a huge fan - this is the only song I've heard from the album thus far - JM does have a nice ...
Pink - "So What" Guitar Chords and Lyrics
I haven't posted a song from Alecia Beth Moore ( aka Pink ) in absolutely ages. I'm not a big fan of the pop/r&b/dance scene, but Pink's songs lean close enough to the Rock side of things that I like listening to her stuff, and some of her songs ...
Amy Winehouse - Help Yourself chords & lyrics
"Help Yourself", the final single from Amy's "Frank" album makes up the round dozen of Amy Winehouse songs for which I've worked out chords and lyrics versions, and posted to my guitar chords site, having created an Amy Winehouse songs page some mont...
