If I Could Turn Back Time

Cher

instrumental guitar chug 



intro chorus

If I could turn back time 

If I could find a way 

I'd take back those words that've hurt you 

and you'd stay 


verse 1

I don't know why I did the things I did 

I don't know why I said the things I said 

Pride's like a knife, it can cut deep inside 

Words are like weapons,

 they wound sometimes


pre-chorus

I didn't really mean to hurt you 

I didn't wanna see you go 

I know I made you cry, but baby 


chorus

If I could turn back time, 

If I could find a way 

I'd take back those words that've hurt you, 

you'd stay 


If I could reach the stars, 

I'd give 'em all to you 

Then you'd love me, love me, 

like you used to do 

If I could turn back time 


verse 2

My world was shattered, 

I was torn apart 

Like someone took a knife

 and drove it deep in my heart 

When you walked out 

that door I swore that I didn't care 

But I lost everything, darlin',

 then and there 


pre-chorus

Too strong to tell you I was sorry 

Too proud to tell you I was wrong 

I know that I was blind and darlin' 


chorus 

If I could turn back time, 

if I could find a way 

I'd take back those words that've hurt you 

and you'd stay 


If I could reach the stars, 

I'd give 'em all to you 

Then you'd love me, love me, 

like you used to do 


bridge

If I could turn back time 

(If I could turn back time) 

If I could turn back time 

(If I could turn back time) 

If I could turn back time 

Oh, baby 


pre-chorus / guitar solo

I didn't really mean to hurt you 

I didn't wanna see you go 

I know I made you cry, but 


chorus 

If I could turn back time, 

if I could find a way 

I'd take back those words that hurt you 


key change 

If I could reach the stars, 

I'd give 'em all to you 

Then you'd love me, love me, 

like you used to do,

 if I could turn back time


Turn back time, 

if I could find a way 

And maybe, maybe, maybe you'd stay 


Reach the stars, If I could reach the stars

Lovefool

The Cardigans

verse 1

Dear, I fear we're facing a problem

You love me no longer, I know and

Maybe there is nothing that I can do

To make you do


Mama tells me I shouldn't bother

That I ought just stick to another man

A man that surely deserves me

But I think you do


pre-chorus

So I cry, and I pray, and I beg


chorus

Love me, love me

Say that you love me

Fool me, fool me

Go on and fool me


Love me, love me

Pretend that you love me

Leave me, leave me

Just say that you need me


So I cry and I beg for you to


Love me, love me

Say that you love me

Leave me, leave me

Just say that you need me


I can't care 'bout anything but you


verse 2

Lately I have desperately pondered

Spent my nights awake and I wonder

What I could have done in another way

To make you stay


Reason will not reach a solution

I will end up lost in confusion

I don't care if you really care

As long as you don't go


pre-chorus

So I cry, and I pray, and I beg


chorus

Love me, love me

Say that you love me

Fool me, fool me

Go on and fool me


Love me, love me

Pretend that you love me

Leave me, leave me

Just say that you need me

Love me, love me

Say that you love me

Leave me, leave me

Just say that you need me

The Power of Love

Huey Lewis & The News


band intro



verse 1

The power of love is a curious thing

Make a one man weep, make another man sing

Change a hawk to a little white dove

More than a feeling; 


That's the power of love


verse 2

Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream

Stronger and harder than a bad girl's dream

Make a bad one good, mmm, 

make a wrong one right

Power of love'd keep you home at night


chorus

You don't need money, 

don't take fame

Don't need no credit card 

to ride this train

It's strong and it's sudden 

and it's cruel sometimes

But it might just save your life


That's the power of love

That's the power of love


verse 3

First time you feel it, it might make you sad

Next time you feel it, it might, mmm, 

make you mad

But you'll be glad, baby, when you've found

That's the power, makes the world go 'round


chorus

And it don't take money,

 don't take fame

Don't need no credit card to ride this train

It's strong and it's sudden, 

it can be cruel sometimes

But it might just save your life


bridge

They say that all in love is fair

Yeah, but you don't care

But you'll know what to do

When it gets hold of you

And with a little help from above

You'll feel the power of love


Feel the power of love

Can you feel it?

Hmm, hmm



guitar solo



chorus

It don't take money 

and don't take fame

Don't need no credit card to ride this train

Tougher than diamonds

 and stronger than steel

You won't feel nothin' 'til you feel


You feel the power, 

just feel the power of love

That's the power, 

That's the power of love


outro

You feel the power of love

You feel the power of love

Feel the power of love

verse 1

Risin' up, back on the street

Did my time, took my chances

Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet

Just a man and his will to survive

So many times it happens too fast

You trade your passion for glory

Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past

You must fight just to keep them alive


chorus

It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight

Risin' up to the challenge of our rival

And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night

And he's watching us all with the eye

Face to face, out in the heat

Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry

They stack the odds till we take to the street

For the kill with the skill to survive

Risin' up to the challenge of our rival

And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night

Summer of '69

Bryan Adams

verse 1

I got my first real six-string

Bought it at the Five and Dime

Played it 'til my fingers bled

Was the summer of '69


Me and some guys from school

Had a band and we tried real hard

Jimmy quit, Jody got married

Should've known we'd never get far


chorus

Oh, when I look back now

That summer seemed to last forever

And if I had the choice

Yeah, I'd always wanna be there

Those were the best days of my life



guitar / synth hook



Hey!


verse

Ain't no use in complainin'

When you got a job to do

Spent my evenings down at the drive-in

And that's when I met you, yeah


chorus 2

Standin' on your mama's porch

You told me that you'd wait forever

Oh, and when you held my hand

I knew that it was now or never

Those were the best days of my life


refrain

Oh, yeah

Back in the summer of '69, ohh


bridge

Man, we were killin' time

We were young and restless

We needed to unwind

I guess nothing can last forever

Forever, no!



guitar / synth hook

Yeah!



verse

And now the times are changin'

Look at everything that's come and gone

Sometimes, when I play that old six-string

Think about you, wonder what went wrong


chorus 3

Standin' on your mama's porch

You told me that it'd last forever


Oh, and when you held my hand

I knew that it was now or never

Those were the best days of my life

Back in the summer of '69, uh-huh
