Get Over It

Don Henley - Glenn Frey

© Red Cloud Music, BMI / Woody Creek Music, BMI

I turn on the tube what do I see a whole lotta people cryin' don't blame me
They point their crooked little fingers at everybody else
Spend all of their time feelin' sorry for themselves
Victim of this victim of that your momma's too thin and your daddy's too fat
Get over it get over it
All this whinin' cryin' pitchin' a fit get over it get over it
[ guitar ]
You said you haven't been the same since you had your little crash
But you might feel better if they gave you some cash
The more I think about it old Billy was right
Let's kill all the lawyers kill 'em tonight
Don't wanna work you want to live like a king
But the big bad world doesn't owe you a thing
Get over it get over it
If you don't want to play then you might as well split get over it get over it
[ guitar ]
It's like going to confession every time I hear you speak
You're making the most of your losin' streak some call it sick I call it weak

You're draggin' around like a ball and chain
You wallow in the guilt you wallow in the pain
You wave it like a flag you wear it like a crown
Got your mind in the gutter bringin' everybody down
You bitch about the present blame it on the past
I'd like to find you in a child and kick it's little ass
Get over it get over it
All this bitchin' and moanin' and pitchin' a fit get over it get over it
Get over it get over it
It's gotta stop sometime so why don't you quit get over it get over it
[ guitar ]
Get over it

Love Will Keep Us Alive

Pete Vale - Jim Capaldi - Paul Carrack

© Virgin Songs, BMI / Warner-Tamerlane Publ, BMI

I was standing all alone against the world outside
You were searching for a place to hide
Lost and lonely now you've given me the will to survive
When we're hungry love will keep us alive

Don't you worry sometimes you've just gotta let it ride
The world is changing right before your eyes
Now I've found you there's no more emptiness inside
When we're hungry love will keep us alive

I would die for you climb the highest mountain
Baby there's nothing I wouldn't do
Now I've found you there's no more emptiness inside
When we're hungry love will keep us alive
[ guitar ]
I would die for you climb the highest mountain
Baby there's nothing I wouldn't do
I was standing all alone...
When we're hungry love will keep us alive
When we're hungry love will keep us alive

Girl From Yesterday

Glenn Frey - Jack Tempchini

© Red Cloud Music, BMI / Night River Publishing, ASCAP

It wasn't really sad the way they said goodbye
Or maybe it just hurt so bad she couldn't cry
He packed his things walked out the door and drove away
And she became the girl from yesterday
He took a plane across the sea to some foreign land
She stayed at home and tried so hard to understand
How someone who had been so close could be so far away
And she became the girl from yesterday

She doesn't know what's right she doesn't know what's wrong
She only knows the pain that comes from waiting for so long
And she doesn't count the teardrops that she's cried while he's away
Because she knows deep in her heart that he'll be back someday
[ guitar ]
The light's on in the window she's waiting by the phone
Talking to a memory that's never coming home
She dreams of his returning and the things that he might say
But she'll always be the girl from yesterday
Yes she'll always be the girl from yesterday

Learn To Be Still

Don Henley - Stan Lynch

© Black Cypress Music, BMI / Matanzas Music, ASCAP / Night Rainbow Music, ASCAP

It's just another day in paradise as you stumble to your bed
Give anything to silence those voices ringing in your head
You thought you could find happiness just over that green hill
You thought you would be satisfied but you never will learn to be still

Like sheep without a shepherd don't know how to be alone
So we wander round this desert wind up following the wrong God's home
The flock cries out for another they keep answering that bell
One more starry eyed messiah meets a violent farewell learn to be still
Learn to be still

Now the flowers in your garden they don't smell so sweet so sweet
Maybe you'd forgotten the heaven lying at your feet
[ guitar ]
There are so many contradictions in all these messages we send
Keep asking how do I get out of here where do I fit in
Though the world is torn and shakin' even if your heart is breakin'
It's waiting for you to awaken someday you will learn to be still
Learn to be still
Just keep on running keep on running yeah running keep on running

Tequila Sunrise

Don Henley - Glenn Frey

© Cass County Music, BMI / Red Cloud Music, BMI

It's another tequila sunrise staring slowly cross the sky said goobye
He was just a hired hand working on the dreams he planned to try
The days go by
Every night when the sun goes down just another lonely boy in town
And she's out running round
She wasn't just another woman and I couldn't keep from coming on
It's been so long
Oh and it's a hollow feeling when it comes down to dealing friends
It never ends
[ guitar ]
Take another shot of courage wonder why the right words never come
You just get numb
It's another tequila sunrise this old world still looks the same
Another frame

Hotel California

Don Henley - Glenn Frey - Don Felder

© Cass County Music, BMI / Red Cloud Music, BMI / Fingers Music, ASCAP

On a dark desert highway cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway I heard the mission bell
I was thinking to myself this could be heaven or this could be hell
Then she lit up that candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place) such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (any time of year) you can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted she got the Mercedes-Benz
She got a lot of pretty pretty boys she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember some dance to forget
So I called up the captain please bring me my wine
He said we haven't had that spirit here since 1969
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night just to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place) such a lovely face
They're livin' up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise) bring your alibis

Mirrors on the ceiling the pink champagne on ice
And she said we are all just prisoners here of our own device
And in the master's chambers they gathered for the feast
They stabbed it with their steely knives but they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
Relax said the nightman we are programmed to receive
You can check out anytime you like but you can never leave

Wasted Time

Don Henley - Glenn Frey

© Cass County Music, BMI / Red Cloud Music, BMI

Baby there you stand with your little head down in your hand
Oh my God you can't believe it's happening again
Your baby's gone and you're all alone and it looks like the end
You're back out on the street and you're trying to remember oh
How do you start it over you don't know if you can
You don't care much for a stranger's touch but you can't hold your man
You never thought you'd be alone this far down the line
I know what's been on your mind you're afraid it's all been wasted time

The autumn leaves have got you thinking about the first time that you fell
You didn't love the boy too much no no you just loved the boy too well
So you live from day to day and you dream about tomorrow
And the hours go by like minutes and the shadows come to stay
So you take a little something to make them go away
I could have done so many things baby if I could only stop my mind
From wonderin' what I left behind and from worryin' bout this wasted time

Ooh another love has come and gone ooh and the years keep rushing on
I remember what you told me before you went out on your own
Sometimes to keep it together we got to leave it alone
So you can get on with your search baby and I can get on with mine
And maybe someday we will find that it wasn't really wasted time uh huh ooh

Pretty Maids All In A Row

Joe Walsh - Joey Vitale

© Mentally Incompetent Music, BMI / Wow And Flutter Music, ASCAP

Hi there how are ya it's been a long time seems like we've come a long way
My but we learn so slow and heroes they come and they go
And leave us behind as if we're supposed to know why oh tell me why
Why do we give up our hearts to the past and why must we grow up so fast
[ strings ]
And all you wishing well fools with your fortunes someone should send you a rose
With love from a friend it's nice to here from you again
And the storybook comes to a close gone are the ribbons and bows
Things to remember places to go pretty maids all in a row all in a row
All in a row

I Can't Tell You Why

Don Henley - Glenn Frey - Tim Smith

© Cass County Music, BMI / Red Cloud Music, BMI / Jeddrah Music, ASCAP

Look at us baby up all night tearing our love apart
Aren't we the same two people who lived through years in the dark
Everytime I try to walk away something makes me turn around and stay
And I can't tell you why

When we get crazy it just ain't right girl I get lonely too
But you don't have to worry just hold on tight cause I love you
Nothin's wrong as fa as I can see we make it harder than it has to be
And I can't tell you why no baby I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why no baby
[ guitar ]
Everytime I try to walk away something makes me turn around and stay
And I can't tell you why no baby I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why no baby I can't tell you why no baby

New York Minute

Don Henley - Dan Kortchmar - Jai Winding

© Woody Creek Music, BMI / Dobbs Music, ASCAP / WB Music, ASCAP

Harry got up dressed all in black
Went down to the station and he never came back
They found his clothing scattered somewhere down the track
And he won't be down on Wall Street in the morning
He had a home the love of a girl but men get lost sometimes as years unfold
One day he crossed some line and he was too much in this world
But I guess it doesn't matter anymore
In a New York Minute everything can change
In a New York Minute things can get pretty strange
In a New York Minute everything can change
In a New York Minute

Lying here in the darkness I hear the sirens wail
Somebody going to emergency somebody's going to jail
If you find somebody to love in this world you better hand on tooth and nail
The wolf is always at the door
In a New York Minute...

And in these days when darkness falls early
And people rush home to the ones they love
You better take a fool's advice and tak care of your own
One day they're here next day they're gone

I pulled my coat around my shoulders and took a walk down through the park
The leaves were falling around me the groaning city in the gathering dark
On some solitary rock a desperate lover left his mark
Said baby I've changed please come back
What the head makes cloudy the heart makes very clear
The days were so much brighter in the time when she was here
But I know there's somebody somewhere make these dark clouds disappear
Until that day I have to believe I believe I believe
In a New York Minute...

Last Resort

Don Henley - Glenn Frey

© Cass County Music, BMI / Red Cloud Music, BMI

She came from Providence the one in Rhode Island
Where the old world shadows hang heavy in the air
She packed her hopes and dreams like a refugee
Just as her father came across the sea
She heard about a place people were smiling
Spoke about the red man's ways how they loved the land
They came from everywhere to the Great Divide
Seeking a place to stand or a place to hide
Down in the crowded bars out for a good time
Can't wait to tell you all what it's like up there
They called it paradise I don't know why
Somebody laid the mountains low while the town got high

When the chilly winds blew down across the desert
Through the canyons of the coast to the malibus
Where the pretty people played hungry for power
To light their neon ways give 'em things to do
Some rich man came and raped the land nobody caught him
Put up a bunch of ugly boxes and Jesus people bought them
They called it paradise the place to be
They watched the hazy sun sinking in the sea

You can leave it all behind sail to Lahaina
Just like the missionaries did so many years ago
They even brought a neon sign said Jesus is coming
Brought the white man's burden down brought the white man's reign
We will provide the grand design what is yours and what is mine
Couse there is no more new frontier we have got to make it here
We satisfied our endlees needs and justified our bloody deeds
In the name of destiny and in the name of God
And you can see them there on Sunday morning
Stand up and sing about what it's like up there
And they called it paradise I don't know why
You call someplace paradise kiss it goodbye

Take It Easy

Glenn Frey - Jackson Browne

© Swallow Turn Music, ASCAP

Well I'm runnin' down the road tryin' to loosen my load
I've got seven women on my mind
Four that wanna own me two that wanna stone me
One says she's a friend of mine
Take it easy take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand and take it easy

Well I'm a standin' on a corner in Winslow Arizona such a fine sight to see
It's a girl my lord in a flat-bed Ford slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on baby don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
We may lose and we may win though we may never be here again
So open up I'm climbing in take it easy
[ guitar ]
Well I'm a runnin' down the road tryin' to loosen my load
Got a world of trouble on my mind
Looking for a lover who won't blow my cover she's so hard to find
Take it easy take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy
Come on baby don't say maybe
I gotta know of your sweet love is gonna save me
(Uh uh huh uh uh huh)
[ guitar ]
Oh we got it easy we oughta take it easy yeah

In The City

Joe Walsh - Barry DeVorzon

© Mentally Incompetent Music, BMI / Wow And Flutter Music, ASCAP

Somewhere out on that horizon out beyond the neon lights
I know there must be something better but there's nowhere else in sight
It's survival in the city children when you live from day to day
City streets don't have much pity when you're down that's where you'll stay
In the city uh huh oooh in the city uh huh oooh
[ guitar ]
I was born here in the city with my back against the wall
Nothing grows and life ain't very pretty no one's there to catch you when you fall
Oh somewhere out on that horizon far away from the neon sky
I know there must be something must be something better
And I can't stay another night
In the city uh huh oooh in the city...

Life In The Fast Lane

Don Henley - Glenn Frey - Joe Walsh

© Cass County Music, BMI / Red Cloud Music, BMI / Wow And Flutter Music, ASCAP

He was a hard headed man he was brutally handsome
And she was terminally pretty
She held him up and he held her for ransom
In the heart of the cold cold city
He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dude
They said he was ruthless they said he was crude
They had one thing in common they were good in bed
She'd say faster faster the lights are turnin' red
Life in the fast lane surely make you lose your mind
Life in the fast lane

Eager for action and hot for the game
The coming attraction the drop of a name
They knew all the right people they took all the right pills
They threw outrageous parties they paid heavily bills
There were lines on the mirror lines on her face
She pretended not to notice she was caught up in the race
Out every evening until it was light
He was too tired to make it she was too tired to fight about it
Life in the fast lane surely make you lose your mind
Life in the fast lane
Life in the fast lane everything all the time Life in the fast lane
[ guitar ]
Blowin' and burnin' blinded by thirst
They didn't see the stop sign took a turn for the worst
She said listen baby you can hear the engines ring
We've been up and down this highway haven't seen a god-dam thing
He said call the doctor I think I'm gonna crash
The doctor says he's comin' but you gotta pay him cast
They went rushin' down that freeway messed around and got lost
They didn't know they were just dying to get off
And it was life in the fast lane...

Desperado

Don Henley - Glenn Frey

© Cass County Music, BMI / Red Cloud Music, BMI

Desperado why don't you come to your senses
You've been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh you're a hard one I know that you've got your reasons
These things that are pleasing you will hurt you somehow
Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy she'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
But it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can't get

Desperado oh you ain't gettin' no younger
Your pain and your hunger they're driving you home
And freedom oh freedom well that's just some people talking
Your prison is walking through this world all alone
Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the nighttime from the day
You're losing all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away

Desperado why don't you come to your senses
Come down from your fences open the gate
It may be raining but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you (let somebody love you)
You better let somebody love you before it's too late
