G                      Em
Gary, now I know I was wrong
G                        Em                  
I messed up, and now you're gone 

C    G
               C             Em
Gary, I'm sorry I neglected you
      G             Em               C                  Em
Oh, I never expected you to run away and leave me
            G
Feeling this empty
C                       Em                           G
Your meow right now would sound like music to me
C                                     Em                 G
Please come home, 'cause I miss you, Gary


G                Em                                G               Em
(Gary come home) Gary come home (Gary come home)


G                          Em   
Gary, can't you see I was blind
         G                 Em                     
I'll do anything to change your mind

C    G

C                                Em
More than a pet, you're my best friend
G                                    C
Too cool to forget, come back
Em                   G
'Cause we are family
        C                    Em           C         G
And forgive me for making you wanna roam
        C                      Em                  C                   G
And now my heart is beating like the saddest metronome
        C                             Em            C      G              C
Somewhere I hope you're reading my latest three-word poem:
N.C.             
Gary come home 

G                 Em
(Gary come home) Gary come home 
 G                 Em
(Gary come home) Gary come home 
 G                 Em
(Gary come home) Gary come home 
G                  Em
(Gary come home) Ahh, Gary, come home
G
Gary, come home
Em                             G
Gary, won't you come home

Misread - Kings of Convenience


F            G          C
 If you wanna be my friend
 C             Em        F
 You want us to get along
 F            G          C                       
 Please do not expect me to
 C             Em        F                             
 Wrap it up and keep it there
 F            G          C      ...ecc ecc                                
 The observation I am doing could
                                
 Easily be understood
 As cynical demeanour
 But one of us misread...
 And what do you know
 It happened again
 A friend is not a means
 You utilize to get somewhere
 Somehow I didn't notice
 friendship is an end
 What do you know
 It happened again

 How come no-one told me
 All throughout history
 The loneliest people
 Were the ones who always spoke the truth
 The ones who made a difference
 By withstanding the indifference
 I guess it's up to me now 
 Should I take that risk or
 just smile?

 What do you know
 It happened again
 What do you know

Postcards From Italy - Beirut


Intro: F |F | A |A

     F
The times we had
              A
Oh, when the wind would blow with rain and snow 
     F
Were not all bad 
            A
We put our feet just where they had 
       F
Had to go
         A
Never to go 

     F
The shattered soul 
           A
Following close but nearly twice as slow 
     F
Were my good times 
                  A
There were always golden rocks to throw 
          F
At those who 
A     
Those who admit defeat too late 
       F
Those were our times 
       A
Those were our times 

    Bb    F                     Dm 
And I will love to see that day
      C
That day is mine
     Bb         F
When she will marry me
   Dm             C
Outside with the willow trees
Bb    F              Dm 
And playing songs in May C
What made me so
    Bb      F
And I would love to see that day
     C
The day was mine
